Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea processing equipment, and in particular to a tea leaf shaping device. Background Technology
[0002] Tea is an important economic crop in my country, and its processing technology directly affects its quality and value. Shaping is a crucial step in tea processing, especially in the production of flat-shaped and needle-shaped teas. Its purpose is to use external force to make the tea leaves tightly rolled, straight, and flat, and to initially shape their form.
[0003] In existing technologies, tea leaves are prone to accumulating and clumping during the shaping process due to factors such as their own moisture content and static electricity. This makes it difficult for them to be evenly distributed in the shaping trough, resulting in uneven heating, inconsistent shaping force, and some tea leaves being damaged due to excessive compression. Insufficient shaping will affect the uniformity and quality of the finished tea. At the same time, traditional shaping devices have a single function. Shaping and other processes such as spreading, drying, and breaking up clumps often need to be carried out separately or rely on manual intervention for turning, resulting in low production efficiency and increased labor costs and hygiene risks. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above deficiencies, this utility model provides a tea leaf shaping device, which aims to solve the problem in the prior art that "tea leaves are prone to accumulating and clumping due to their own moisture content and static electricity during the shaping process, making it impossible to distribute them evenly in the shaping groove, resulting in uneven heating and inconsistent shaping force."
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a tea leaf shaping device, comprising a frame, a motor mounted on the inner wall of the frame, a rotating disk fixedly connected to the output shaft of the motor, a connecting rod hinged to the outer wall of the rotating disk, a placement frame hinged to the end of the connecting rod away from the rotating disk, an arc-shaped plate fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement frame, a heating pad provided on the lower surface of the arc-shaped plate, a material leveling mechanism provided on the inner wall of the placement frame, the material leveling mechanism comprising an adjusting component, a partition plate slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement frame, a pushing frame fixedly connected to the lower surface of the partition plate, a connecting block fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pushing frame, a pushing block slidably connected to the lower surface of the connecting block, a connecting rod fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pushing block, and a baffle slidably connected to the end of the connecting rod away from the pushing block.
[0006] As a further description of the above technical solution: The material distribution mechanism further includes a blowing assembly, which includes a blower fixedly connected to the upper surface of the frame. The inner wall of the partition plate has an air guide cavity, the outer wall of the partition plate has an air outlet, and the upper surface of the partition plate is fixedly connected to an air guide plate.
[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution: The air guide plate is inclined, and there are multiple sets of air guide plates, which are symmetrically arranged with the center line of the partition plate as the axis of symmetry.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: The baffle is hinged to the inner wall of the placement rack, and the connecting rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement rack.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: The connecting rod is L-shaped, and there are two sets of connecting rods, which are symmetrically arranged with the center line of the pushing block as the axis of symmetry.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: An electric push rod is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the placement rack, and the output shaft of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the push block.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. In this utility model, through the coordinated action of the adjusting component and the blowing component of the uniform material mechanism, the partition plate can adjust the tea placement space and guide the tea to be evenly dispersed. The air force generated by the blower is evenly blown onto the tea through the air guide cavity, air outlet and inclined air guide plate, which can not only break up the tea clumps, but also ensure that the tea is evenly distributed on the arc plate. Combined with the heating effect of the heating pad, the tea is heated evenly and the tea strips are uniformly separated, which significantly improves the uniformity and quality of the finished tea.
[0014] 2. In this utility model, by setting the baffle of the adjustment component, after the tea leaves are shaped, the tea leaf placement space is opened when the partition plate is retracted to feed the next batch of tea leaves, which facilitates quick discharge. There is no need to separate multiple processes. The overall structure has strong linkage and greatly improves the production efficiency of tea leaf shaping. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3This utility model provides an embodiment of a tea leaf shaping device, comprising a frame 1 that provides overall support and fixation. A motor 2, providing power output, is mounted on the inner wall of the frame 1. The output shaft of the motor 2 is fixedly connected to a rotating disk 3 that transmits the rotational motion of the motor 2. A connecting rod 4, which converts the rotational motion of the rotating disk 3 into the reciprocating motion of a placement frame 5, is hinged to the outer wall of the rotating disk 3. The end of the connecting rod 4 away from the rotating disk 3 is hinged to a placement frame 5 that carries the tea leaves and performs the shaping action. An arc-shaped plate 6, conforming to the shape of the tea leaves and assisting in shaping, is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the placement frame 5. A heating pad 11, for heating the tea leaves and assisting in shaping and drying, is provided on the lower surface of the arc-shaped plate 6, improving the tea leaf shaping effect. A uniform material distribution device is provided on the inner wall of the placement frame 5 to ensure even distribution of the tea leaves. The uniform material distribution mechanism includes an adjustment component 7 for adjusting the tea placement space. The adjustment component 7 includes a partition plate 71 that divides the tea area to achieve uniform distribution. When the partition plate 71 is lowered, the unobstructed arc plate 6 allows the tea inside to be evenly dispersed. The partition plate 71 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement rack 5. A pusher frame 72 that transmits pushing force and drives the partition plate 71 to slide is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the partition plate 71. A connecting block 73 for intermediate transmission is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pusher frame 72. A pusher block 74 that provides driving force is slidably connected to the lower surface of the connecting block 73. A connecting rod 75 that transmits power and drives the baffle 76 to move is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pusher block 74. A baffle 76 that adjusts the tea discharge is slidably connected to the end of the connecting rod 75 away from the pusher block 74.
[0019] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The material distribution mechanism also includes a dispersing component 8 for blowing away tea leaves to prevent clumping. The dispersing component 8 includes a blower 81 that provides airflow. The blower 81 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the frame 1. The inner wall of the partition plate 71 has an air guide cavity 82 for storing and guiding airflow. The outer wall of the partition plate 71 has an air outlet 83 for discharging airflow to disperse the tea leaves. The upper surface of the partition plate 71 is fixedly connected to a guide plate 84 that guides airflow into the arc plate 6. The guide plate 84 is inclined to improve airflow efficiency. Multiple sets of guide plates 84 are provided. The multiple sets of guide plates 84 are symmetrically arranged with the center line of the partition plate 71 as the axis of symmetry to ensure uniform airflow. The blower 81 and the partition plate 71 are connected through a connecting pipe 10 for conveying airflow to ensure stable airflow transmission.
[0020] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4The baffle 76 is hinged to the inner wall of the placement frame 5 and can rotate around the hinge point to adjust the space. The connecting rod 75 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the placement frame 5 to ensure smooth movement. The connecting rod 75 is L-shaped to fit the internal space layout of the placement frame 5. There are two sets of connecting rods 75, which are symmetrically arranged about the center line of the push block 74 to ensure that the baffle 76 moves synchronously. An electric push rod 9 that provides driving force to the push block 74 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the placement frame 5. The output shaft of the electric push rod 9 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the push block 74 to drive the push block 74 to move. The lower surface of the connecting block 73 is inclined, and the upper surface of the push block 74 is inclined. The connecting block 73 and the push block 74 cooperate to move the push frame 72 up and down.
[0021] Working principle: When in use, motor 2 is started, driving the rotating disk 3 to rotate. The rotating disk 3, through connecting rod 4, converts the rotational motion into the reciprocating motion of the placement rack 5, causing the tea leaves inside the placement rack 5 to oscillate back and forth on the arc-shaped plate 6, thus achieving the tea leaf shaping action. Simultaneously, the heating pad 11 heats the tea leaves, promoting tea leaf shaping and drying, and improving the shaping effect. When it is necessary to adjust the tea leaf distribution, the electric push rod 9 pushes the push block 74 to move. The push block 74, through the interaction between its inclined surface and the inclined surface of the connecting block 73, drives the connecting block 73 to move up and down, thereby... The pusher 72 drives the partition plate 71 to slide within the placement frame 5. When the partition plate 71 descends, the tea leaves are no longer obstructed and are evenly distributed on the arc plate 6. At the same time, the movement of the pusher block 74 is transmitted through the connecting rod 75, causing the baffle 76 to rotate around the hinge point, adjusting the tea leaf discharge space and controlling the flow of tea leaves. The blowing component 8 starts simultaneously, and the blower 81 delivers air force to the air chamber 82 through the connecting pipe 10. The air force is discharged from the air outlet 83 and guided by the inclined air guide plate 84, blowing evenly onto the tea leaves, effectively breaking up tea leaf clumps and ensuring that the tea leaves are evenly distributed during the tea leaf sorting process.
[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
