The stirred material falls into the screen 31 and cooperates with the vibration motor 32 to screen the raw material impurities, thereby separating the fermented tea meal feed material from the impurities, improving efficiency and quality, and reducing energy consumption and manual cleaning costs.

[0017] A bracket 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the tank body 1. The bottom surface of the bracket 15 is connected to the upper surface of the drive motor 3. A sealing gasket 12 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the feed inlet 2. A dust cover 13 is connected to the upper surface of the sealing gasket 12. A handle 14 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the dust cover 13. A vent 20 is opened on the upper surface of the dust cover 13. An air filter is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the vent 20. A support plate 16 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the tank body 1. A control box 17 is fixedly installed on the front of the support plate 16. An indicator light 19 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the control box 17.

[0019] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, open the dust cover 13 and put the material into the tank through the feed inlet 2 at the top of the tank 1. After feeding, use the dust cover 13 and the sealing gasket 12 to seal the feed inlet 2. At the same time, the air filter in the vent 20 can allow ventilation while preventing external impurities and bacteria from entering. Then, start the drive motor 3. The output end of the drive motor 3 drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate. The first stirring plate 6 and the second stirring plate 7 on the rotating shaft 5 operate synchronously. The first stirring plate 6 and the second stirring plate 7 stir the material and mix it thoroughly. Then, the second stirring plate 7 drives the fixed plate 8 and the rubber scraper 9 to move closely against the inner wall of the tank 1, continuously scraping off the attached material to prevent material residue and deterioration, and to ensure the cleanliness of the tank. At this time, the heating tube 11 in the cavity 10 inside the tank 1... The heating element 11 heats the material inside the tank when powered on. Temperature sensor 27 monitors the temperature inside the tank in real time and transmits the data to control box 17. The operator sets the required temperature range for fermentation through touch screen 18. Control box 17 automatically adjusts the working state of heating tube 11 based on the feedback signal from temperature sensor 27 to maintain a stable temperature. After fermentation is completed, the funnel 25 structure at the bottom of tank 1 guides the material to gather towards the center, avoiding the material residue problem of traditional flat-bottomed tanks 1. The discharge valve 26 is opened, and the material is discharged through the discharge valve 26 and falls into screen 31. Screen 31 vibrates under the drive of vibrating motor 32 to screen the raw materials, remove impurities and large particles, and thus separate the impurities from the fermented material. Spring 29 is designed to enhance the vibration effect and avoid resonance affecting the overall structure.
