Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an agricultural and animal husbandry crushing machine, in particular to a square bale straw crusher with two-stage crushing functions of stirring and cutting and striking. Background Art

[0002] Corn stalks, wheat straw, and rice straw are the primary roughage for cattle and sheep in my country and Xinjiang, and are crucial for the vigorous development of grain-saving animal husbandry in both my country and Xinjiang. The growing demand for straw resources in livestock farming has driven the development of mechanized square baling technology for straw. In Xinjiang, corn stalks, wheat straw, and rice straw are typically collected using balers and stored in square bales.

[0003] In large-scale cattle and sheep farming in my country and Xinjiang, square bales of corn stalks, wheat straw, and rice straw are primarily comminuted using hay choppers and hammer mills. Hay chopper technology is mature and a wide variety of models are available. Hammer mills can handle both feed and forage, and their technology for feed comminution has reached internationally advanced levels. Hay choppers and hammer mills are primarily suitable for comminuting hard, sticky straw. The main problems with comminuting square bales of straw are: first, manual unbundling and feeding are required, resulting in low productivity, high energy consumption, high labor intensity, and poor operational safety. Second, poor processing quality. The corn stalks, wheat straw, and rice straw processed by hay choppers are generally over 3 cm in length, mostly around 5 cm, and sometimes even longer. This meets the needs of beef cattle farming, but it is difficult to achieve the optimal length of less than 2 cm required for mutton. Third, straw is wet or dry, hard or soft, coarse or fine, and existing machines cannot process it in subdivided forms, resulting in either low processing efficiency for straw that is too coarse or too hard, or high energy consumption and waste of energy due to high-power machines processing fine and soft straw.

[0004] Therefore, how to effectively improve the efficiency and processing quality of square straw bales, and subdivide the processing objects and the specifications of the crushed feed to reduce the energy consumption of machinery and labor intensity, is a technical challenge in the current large-scale cattle and sheep farming. To this end, based on the current characteristics of cutter and hammer crushing, the present invention starts with the design method and experimentation of a two-stage mixing cutter, cutter, hammer cutter and their combined mechanism, and conducts research on the crushing mechanism of directly fed square straw bales, providing a series of feed processing machinery that meets the needs of specialized large-scale production of different straws and different quality requirements.

A hammer cutting flange is provided in front of the hammer cutting pipe shaft, and the hammer cutting flange is connected to the stirring blade flange.

[0009] A reinforcing strip is connected to the hammer shaft at each of the four corners between the front and rear plates. One end of the reinforcing strip is fixedly connected to the hammer shaft head, and the other end is fixed to the front and rear plates.

Screens with a variety of apertures are available to meet the processing of fine feed and the classification of coarse feed. The present invention belongs to the type for processing coarse and hard straw and is suitable for coarse and hard dry straw.
