1 shows an example of a tea bag 100 according to this embodiment.

In the method of manufacturing a tea bag, first, a cotton fabric is prepared, and the cotton fabric is washed in a set solution (S10).

For example, in order to remove at least one of the disinfecting bleach and chemicals in the cotton fabric, it is immersed in base water for 3 hours or more, and a heavy object such as a basin filled with water is placed on the upper part of the cotton fabric, and it can be washed by pressure. By pressing the immersed cotton fabric, bleach and the like in the cotton fabric can be additionally removed. In this case, the base water may include 100 ml to 200 ml of vinegar per 10 liters of water in purified water, and salt set at a constant ratio with respect to the amount of vinegar. Vinegar and salt have a natural cleaning effect, and when the two components meet, a better cleaning effect can be achieved.

Thereafter, the washed cotton fabric is sterilized (S20).

At this time, a rinsing step (S21) of rinsing the disinfected cotton fabric under running water, a step of steaming in a steamer (S22), and a step of disinfecting and drying in sunlight (S23) may be included. In order to remove the vinegar smell and other impurities from the previously washed cotton fabric in purified water containing vinegar and salt, the rinsing step (S21) is performed, and the cotton fabric can be rinsed by immersing it in running water for 5 hours or more. After going through a step (S22) of steaming the cotton fabric in a steaming pot for about 20 minutes over high heat for a sterilization effect, the steamed cotton fabric can be disinfected and dried in sunlight (S23). An effective sterilization effect can be obtained through the process of steaming the cotton fabric on high heat (S22) and sterilizing and drying the cotton fabric in sunlight (S23).

The tea bag manufacturing method according to the present invention may further include an active ingredient immersion step (S22-1) after the steaming process (S22) of the cotton fabric.

The active ingredient immersion step (S22-1) refers to a step of immersing the cotton fabric that has undergone the boiling or steaming step in purified water containing the set active ingredient for a set time to support the cotton fabric to contain the active ingredient and effective function.

The active ingredient that can be used in the active ingredient immersion step (S22-1) is an Angelica asiatica extract and/or chrysanthemum extract extracted through hot water extraction (the particle size of the dried powders of Angelica asiatica and / or cheongung before hot water extraction is 1um to 100um) provided in a unified standard of These active ingredients may be provided at a ratio of 1 ml to 10 ml of extract per 1 liter of purified water, and through this, Angelica and / or It becomes possible to add the original effective function of the heavenly palace.

Thereafter, by manufacturing a tea bag using a sterilized cotton fabric (S30), the product is completed.

First, the scrim may be prepared by performing at least one of cutting and processing the sterilized cotton fabric, and in this case, the scrim may be cut and processed to a standard of 10 cm to 12 cm. The standard can be set in consideration of the amount of raw materials normally used in tea bags, and can be appropriately adjusted to fit the amount of raw materials to be put in the cotton cloth. Thereafter, the raw material can be folded and packaged after being put in the cotton fabric. The raw material may include green tea leaves, lotus root, rosemary, and the like. Additional ingredients may be included here that are known to promote health and to be brewed into tea. Also, in the packaging process, after closing the corners of the cotton fabric containing the raw materials in the east, west, south, north directions and twisting them in one direction, the raw material is wrapped with a knot means 200 such as a thread so that the raw materials do not come out. The shape of the cotton fabric to be formed can be trimmed (see FIGS. 4 to 7 ).

In addition, a tea bag manufactured through the tea bag manufacturing method may be provided, and in the tea bag manufacturing method, the tea bag 100 is connected to one end of the knot means 200 through the packaging process, and the knot means At the other end of 200 , a mark 300 may be formed. The marking unit 300 may display content related to a car, may be used as an advertisement means, and may be used for promotional purposes of companies that produce or sell products.

Existing tea bags are made of plastic and have a problem in that a large amount of microplastics and nanoplastics are detected when boiling in water or immersing in hot water to brew tea. Since tea bags made of paper are also coated with plastic components such as polypropylene and polyethylene to withstand hot temperatures, there is a problem in detecting microplastics.

At the same time, plastic tea bags, which are one-time use and discard, have emerged as a new problem as the environmental pollution problem caused by plastic has recently become a hot topic.

On the other hand, the tea bag manufacturing method of this embodiment does not use plastic components, but it is washed using natural materials, and 100% cotton fabric that has undergone a clean sterilization process in a simple way is used to prevent microplastics from coming out of the car. It can be reused after brewing tea once, removing the contents, washing it under running water, and drying it.
