ABSTRACT:
Tea leaves are steamed out under pressure higher than atmospheric by means of steam generated from the moisture contained in the tea leaves for tea manufacturing. A round disk with a net on the discharge side of a rotary firing pot is horizontally shifted with a guide driven by air pressure or hydraulic cylinder, or vertically moved together with the horizontal shifting mechanism as a body. A raw tea leaves feeding cylinder is inclined from the top of the opening/closing cover to contact the central opening section of the round disk with the net, and the raw tea leaves are easily fed by means of a tilted charging chute. This tilted charging chute facilitates opening and closing of the disk with the net on the discharge side of the rotary firing pot to effectively make it airtight and further to effect the feeding of raw tea leaves.
