Abstract

This invention relates to a dry-wet separation device for animal feces, comprising a main motor and a conveyor belt roller driven by the main motor. A hollow rotating shaft rotating in the opposite direction is rotatably mounted inside the conveyor belt roller. Several mounting sleeves are equidistantly arranged on the hollow rotating shaft, and brushes are installed inside each mounting sleeve. Adjacent brushes are arranged in opposite directions (upper and lower). A fixed shaft is concentrically mounted inside the hollow rotating shaft and passes through the mounting sleeves. A lifting component and a rotating component are fixedly mounted on the fixed shaft, cooperating with the mounting sleeves and brushes. During the rotation of the hollow rotating shaft, the lifting component drives the brushes to move vertically up and down. During the rotation of the hollow rotating shaft, the rotating component drives the mounting sleeves and brushes to rotate circumferentially, preventing the brushes from tilting in one direction after prolonged use. During rotation, the brushes can also move up and down along the diameter of the hollow rotating shaft, cleaning the separation holes vertically while simultaneously unblocking them.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, specifically to a device for separating dry and wet animal manure. Background Technology

[0002] Lamb is highly nutritious, rich in protein, vitamins B1, B2, and B6, as well as iron, zinc, and selenium. Eating more lamb can help boost the body's immunity. Some farmers install conveyor systems at the bottom of sheep pens to process sheep excrement. If excrement is not processed promptly, sheep feces and urine mix to form a muddy substance, making subsequent processing more difficult. The conveyor belt of the system has separation holes to separate sheep feces and urine, and several brushes are installed inside the conveyor belt rollers to clean the separation holes and prevent blockage caused by prolonged use of sheep feces. However, the inventor discovered that after prolonged use, the brushes may tilt in one direction, affecting the cleaning effect; the conveyor belt has a certain thickness, and the fixed brushes cannot completely clear the separation holes after tilting. Therefore, to address these problems, this invention designs a novel animal feces dry-wet separation device. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dry-wet separation device for animal feces. By sliding and limiting the brush within the mounting sleeve, the hollow rotating shaft drives the brush to rotate in a circular motion. A lifting component then drives the brush to move vertically up and down. A rotating component drives the mounting sleeve and brush to rotate in a circular motion. This design allows the brush to continuously switch orientations as it rotates with the hollow rotating shaft, preventing it from tilting in one direction after prolonged use. Furthermore, the brush can move up and down along the diameter of the hollow rotating shaft during rotation, cleaning the separation holes while simultaneously clearing them vertically, further improving the cleaning and clearing effect.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A dry-wet separation device for animal feces includes a main motor and a conveyor belt roller driven by the main motor. A hollow rotating shaft with opposite directions is rotatably arranged inside the conveyor belt roller. A plurality of mounting sleeves are equidistantly arranged on the hollow rotating shaft. A brush is arranged inside the mounting sleeve, with adjacent brushes arranged in opposite directions. A fixed shaft is concentrically arranged inside the hollow rotating shaft and passes through the mounting sleeves. A lifting component and a rotating component are fixedly arranged on the fixed shaft, which cooperate with the mounting sleeves and brushes. During the rotation of the hollow rotating shaft, the lifting component drives the brushes to move vertically up and down. During the rotation of the hollow rotating shaft, the rotating component drives the mounting sleeves and brushes to rotate circumferentially.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, a limiting block a is fixedly provided on the lower end face of the mounting sleeve, and a mounting slot is provided on the outer wall of the upper end face of the mounting sleeve, on which a limiting block b is installed.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the brush is fixedly connected to a sliding connecting post, the sliding connecting post is slidably disposed on the mounting sleeve, a sliding groove is provided on one side of the upper end of the mounting sleeve, a sliding limiting block is provided on the outer side of the sliding connecting post to cooperate with the sliding groove, and an opening groove is provided on the limiting block b to cooperate with the sliding limiting block.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the mounting sleeve has a through hole, the diameter of which matches the diameter of the fixed shaft.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the outer end of the fixed shaft is fixedly connected to a fixed seat.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the lifting assembly includes a lifting ring disposed at the bottom end of the sliding connecting column and slidably sleeved on the outer surface of the mounting sleeve, and a plurality of lifting cams are fixedly disposed on the fixed shaft, the lifting cams being disposed on both sides of the mounting sleeve and fitting against the lifting ring.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, a return spring is connected between the bottom end of the sliding connecting column and the inside of the mounting sleeve.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the rotating assembly includes a rotating gear disposed on the lower part of the outer surface of the mounting sleeve, and a drive rack that meshes with the rotating gear is also fixedly disposed on the fixed shaft.

[0013] As another preferred embodiment, an auxiliary motor is fixedly installed on one side of the conveyor belt roller, and the output end of the auxiliary motor is fixedly connected to one end of the hollow rotating shaft.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0015] 1. This invention sets the brush sliding limiter inside the mounting sleeve. When the hollow rotating shaft drives the brush to rotate in a circular motion, the lifting component drives the brush to move vertically in an undulating direction. The rotating component drives the mounting sleeve and the brush to rotate in a circular motion. Through the above settings, the brush can continuously switch orientations as it rotates with the hollow rotating shaft, avoiding the brush tilting in one direction after long-term use when fixed. In addition, the brush can also move in an undulating manner along the diameter of the hollow rotating shaft during rotation, which can vertically unclog the separation holes while cleaning them, further improving the cleaning and unclogging effect.

[0016] 2. The hollow rotating shaft of this invention has a fixed shaft inside, on which a fixed lifting cam and a drive rack are mounted. During the rotation of the hollow rotating shaft, the lifting ring maintains contact with the lifting cam under the action of the return spring. The lifting ring drives the brush to move up and down along the lifting cam. At the same time, the fixed drive rack drives the rotating gear to rotate as the mounting sleeve rotates with the hollow rotating shaft, thereby driving the mounting sleeve and the brush to rotate continuously as a whole. The above structure is ingeniously designed, simple in structure, and improves the cleaning efficiency. The rotation and lifting of the brush are realized simultaneously through linkage.

[0017] In summary, this novel animal manure dry-wet separation device has the advantages of ingenious design, simple structure, stable and efficient use, and is especially suitable for the field of animal husbandry technology. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a dry-wet separation device for animal feces, including a main motor 1 and a conveyor belt roller 2 driven by the main motor 1. A hollow rotating shaft 3 is rotatably arranged inside the conveyor belt roller 2 in the opposite direction. A plurality of mounting sleeves 4 are equidistantly arranged on the hollow rotating shaft 3. A brush 5 is arranged inside the mounting sleeve 4, and adjacent brushes 5 are arranged in opposite directions. A fixed shaft 6 is fixedly arranged concentrically inside the hollow rotating shaft 3 and passes through the mounting sleeves 4. A lifting component 7 and a rotating component 8 that cooperate with the mounting sleeves 4 and brushes 5 are fixedly arranged on the fixed shaft 6. During the rotation of the hollow rotating shaft 3, the lifting component 7 drives the brushes 5 to move vertically up and down. During the rotation of the hollow rotating shaft 3, the rotating component 8 drives the mounting sleeves 4 and brushes 5 to rotate circumferentially.

[0029] Here, the present invention sets the sliding limit of the brush 5 within the mounting sleeve 4. When the hollow rotating shaft 3 drives the brush 5 to rotate circumferentially, the lifting component 8 drives the brush 5 to move vertically in an undulating direction. The rotating component 8 drives the mounting sleeve 4 and the brush 5 to rotate circumferentially. Through the above arrangement, the brush 5 can continuously switch orientations as it rotates with the hollow rotating shaft 3, avoiding the brush 5 tilting in one direction after being fixed for a long time. In addition, the brush 5 can also move undulatingly along the diameter of the hollow rotating shaft 3 during rotation (as shown in the figure). Figure 7 As shown in the figure, while cleaning the separation hole, the separation hole is vertically unblocked to further improve the cleaning and unblocking effect.

[0030] See attached document Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 Specifically, a limiting block a401 is fixedly provided on the lower end face of the mounting sleeve 4, and a mounting groove 402 is provided on the outer wall of the upper end face of the mounting sleeve 4. A limiting block b403 is installed on the mounting groove 402. The limiting block b403 can be rotated and limited to be installed in the mounting groove 402, so that the entire mounting sleeve 4 can be limited and installed on the hollow rotating shaft 3. When it is necessary to replace the brush 5, the limiting block b403 can be reversed and taken out from the mounting groove 402 for disassembly and replacement.

[0031] See attached document Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 Specifically, a sliding connecting post 501 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the brush 5. The sliding connecting post 501 is slidably mounted on the mounting sleeve 4. A sliding groove 404 is provided on one side of the upper end of the mounting sleeve 4. A sliding limiting block 502 that cooperates with the sliding groove 404 is provided on the outer side of the sliding connecting post 501. An opening groove 405 that cooperates with the sliding limiting block 502 is provided on the limiting block b403. The sliding groove 404, the sliding limiting block 502 and the opening groove 405 can ensure that the brush 5 and the sliding connecting post 501 can only move vertically and undulatingly along the opening direction of the sliding groove 404 during the rotation of the mounting sleeve 4.

[0032] See attached document Figure 4 Specifically, the mounting sleeve 4 has a through hole 406, the diameter of which matches the diameter of the fixed shaft 6, and the fixed shaft 6 is installed through the through hole 406 in each mounting sleeve 4.

[0033] See attached document Figure 2 Specifically, a fixed base 601 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the fixed shaft 6. The fixed shaft 6 is fixedly installed inside the hollow rotating shaft 3 through the fixed base 601, and remains fixed when the hollow rotating shaft 3 rotates.

[0034] See attached document Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 Specifically, the lifting assembly 7 includes a lifting ring 701 disposed at the bottom end of the sliding connecting column 501 and slidably sleeved on the outer surface of the mounting sleeve 4, and a plurality of lifting cams 702 fixedly disposed on the fixed shaft 6. The lifting cams 702 are disposed on both sides of the mounting sleeve 4 and fit against the lifting ring 701.

[0035] See attached document Figure 5 Specifically, a return spring 703 is connected between the bottom end of the sliding connecting column 501 and the inside of the mounting sleeve 4. The lifting ring 701 is lifted by the protruding section of the lifting cam 702. The rising lifting ring 701 stretches the return spring 703 and drives the brush 5 to be lifted a short distance in the diameter direction of the hollow rotating shaft. After the brush 5 is lifted, it vertically clears the separation hole. Then, when the lifting ring 702 rotates to the non-protruding section of the lifting cam 702, the self-restoring force of the return spring 703 realizes the lifting ring 701 to return to its original position and descend, and it keeps in close contact with the non-protruding section of the lifting cam 702, thereby repeatedly realizing the undulating lifting and lowering movement of the brush 5.

[0036] See attached document Figure 1 Specifically, an auxiliary motor 101 is fixedly installed on one side of the conveyor belt roller 2. The output end of the auxiliary motor 101 is fixedly connected to one end of the hollow rotating shaft 3. The auxiliary motor 101 drives the hollow rotating shaft 3 to rotate, and the rotation direction of the hollow rotating shaft 3 is opposite to the rotation direction of the conveyor belt roller 2 driven by the main motor 1. By reversing the arrangement, the brush 5 can more powerfully clean the separation hole, thereby improving the cleaning and unblocking effect.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] As attached Figure 4 and attached Figure 6As shown, the components that are the same as or corresponding to those in Embodiment 1 are referred to by the same reference numerals as those in Embodiment 1. For the sake of simplicity, only the differences from Embodiment 1 will be described below. The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is that the rotating assembly 8 includes a rotating gear 801 disposed on the lower part of the outer surface of the mounting sleeve 4, and a drive rack 802 that meshes with the rotating gear 801 is also fixedly disposed on the fixed shaft 6.

[0039] It should be noted that a fixed shaft 6 is fixedly installed inside the hollow rotating shaft 3 of the present invention. A fixed lifting cam 702 and a drive rack 802 are installed on the fixed shaft 6. During the rotation of the hollow rotating shaft 3, the lifting ring 701 is in constant contact with the lifting cam 702 under the action of the return spring 703. The lifting ring 701 drives the brush 5 to move up and down along the lifting cam 702. At the same time, the fixed drive rack 802 drives the rotating gear 801 to rotate as the mounting sleeve 4 rotates with the hollow rotating shaft 3, thereby driving the mounting sleeve 4 and the brush 5 to rotate continuously as a whole. The above structure is ingeniously designed, simple in structure, and improves the cleaning efficiency. The rotation and lifting of the brush 5 are realized simultaneously through linkage.

[0040] The working principle of this invention is as follows:

[0041] The main motor 1 drives the conveyor belt roller 2 to rotate forward, while the auxiliary motor 101 drives the hollow rotating shaft 3 to rotate in reverse. A fixed shaft 6 is fixedly installed inside the hollow rotating shaft 3. Several drive racks 802 and lifting cams 702 are equidistantly arranged on the fixed shaft 6. An installation sleeve 4 is installed at the upper limit of the hollow rotating shaft 3. The brush 5 is slidably installed in the installation sleeve 4 through the sliding connecting column 501. The rotation of the hollow rotating shaft 3 drives the installation sleeve 4 and the brush 5 to revolve in a circle. During the revolution, the drive racks 802 and the lifting cams 702 respectively realize the rotation of the brush 5 to switch directions and the undulating and lifting motion along the diameter of the hollow rotating shaft 3 to vertically clear the separation hole.
