Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to livestock feed preparation equipment, specifically an integrated machine for pre-treatment, briquetting, and wrapping of silage. Background Technology

[0002] Silage refers to fresh, green plant material (such as grass and corn stalks) that has been chopped, compacted, and sealed for use as livestock feed. The silage production process involves chopping the plant material into appropriate lengths, compacting and sealing it, and then allowing it to ferment in an anaerobic environment. During fermentation, the sugars in the plant material are converted into acids by microorganisms, thereby lowering the pH value of the feed and inhibiting the growth of harmful bacteria. Silage has a high moisture content, making it suitable for feeding ruminants such as cattle and sheep. The advantages of silage are that it preserves the nutritional value of plants, provides high-quality feed for livestock, and effectively preserves plant material, extending its shelf life.

[0003] Currently, the recycling of plant materials such as forage and corn stalks requires crushing, briquetting, and wrapping. Crushing, briquetting, and wrapping these materials not only reduces their volume for easier transportation, improving efficiency and reducing costs, but also facilitates fermentation in an anaerobic environment, ensuring and improving silage quality. However, existing technologies require the combined use of multiple machines, including crushers, briquetting machines, and wrapping machines, to complete the entire silage processing. This process is complex, has a long production cycle, low efficiency, high costs, low automation, and high labor intensity. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems existing in the prior art and, in combination with the actual needs of silage processing operations, to develop and design an integrated machine for silage pretreatment, briquetting, and wrapping. By integrating the pretreatment, briquetting, and wrapping processes of silage raw materials into one machine, and using an automatic continuous operation mode to complete the pretreatment, briquetting, and automatic wrapping of silage raw materials, the invention aims to simplify the machine structure, significantly improve operating efficiency, reduce production costs, better preserve the nutritional components of the feed, improve the fermentation quality of the feed, reduce mold growth in silage, prevent fermentation runaway, and improve feed utilization.

[0005] The objective of this invention is achieved as follows: A pretreatment box is fixedly mounted on the right side of the mounting frame; a feeding cylinder is connected to the upper end of the pretreatment box; a discharge rotary conveyor assembly is mounted on the inner wall of the bottom wall of the pretreatment box; a discharge port is opened on the bottom side wall of the pretreatment box, at the discharge end of the discharge rotary conveyor assembly; a fixing plate is fixedly mounted inside the cavity of the pretreatment box, above the discharge rotary conveyor assembly, via a fixing frame; a crushing motor is fixedly mounted on the center of the bottom surface of the fixing plate; a vertical cylinder is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the fixing plate; multiple through holes are opened on the wall of the vertical cylinder; and the motor of the crushing motor... A turntable and a central cylindrical gear are fixedly mounted on the shaft from top to bottom. A short shaft is mounted parallel to each other and rotatably on the fixed plate, located on the outer side of the motor shaft of the crushing motor. An extrusion wheel and a side cylindrical gear are fixedly mounted on the short shaft from top to bottom. The side cylindrical gear meshes with the central cylindrical gear. The turntable and extrusion wheel are located inside the vertical cylinder cavity. An extrusion barrel is fixedly supported on the upper end of the turntable via a connecting shaft. The extrusion barrel is located inside the pretreatment chamber cavity, and a spiral groove is formed on the outer surface of the barrel wall. A friction device is mounted parallel to each other and rotatably on the mounting bracket, located on the side of the pretreatment chamber. The system includes an anti-slip upper extrusion roller and a friction-resistant anti-slip lower extrusion roller. An extrusion drive pulley is fixedly mounted on the outer end of the friction-resistant anti-slip lower extrusion roller. A briquetting motor is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting frame. Pulley A is fixedly mounted on the motor shaft of the briquetting motor. A drive shaft is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame above the briquetting motor. Pulleys B and C are fixedly mounted on the two ends of the drive shaft. Drive belts A and B are respectively fitted onto pulleys A and B, and pulley C and the extrusion drive pulley. A base plate is positioned on the outer side of the mounting frame. Parallel and symmetrically mounted roller frames are fixedly mounted on the front and rear sides of the base plate. Parallel and rotatable roller frames are sequentially mounted on the roller frames. Multiple conveyor rollers are supported and installed. Sprockets are fixed on both sides of the conveyor rollers and on the inner side of the roller frames that are arranged opposite to each other. The drive chain is rotatably mounted on the sprockets. A driven pulley is fixed on the outer end of one of the conveyor rollers. A drive pulley is fixed on the motor shaft of the conveyor motor fixed on the base plate. The transmission belt C is mounted on the drive pulley and the driven pulley. The inclined feed plate connects the discharge end of the friction anti-slip extrusion upper roller and the friction anti-slip extrusion lower roller to the feed end of the conveyor roller. Anti-deviation rollers are rotatably arranged on both sides of the base plate between adjacent conveyor rollers. A discharge plate is installed at the rear of the discharge end conveyor roller.A square-hole vertical plate is installed on the base plate, between adjacent conveyor rollers, via a seat plate. Engaging disc shafts are rotatably inserted into the four corners of the square-hole vertical plate. Left and right engaging discs are symmetrically fixed to both ends of the engaging disc shafts. A synchronous rotary belt is sequentially mounted on the four left engaging discs. Left and right rotating rings are rotatably clamped and secured to the inner sides of the four left and four right engaging discs. Left and right take-up rollers are correspondingly and rotatably mounted on the left and right rotating rings. A wrapping motor is fixed to the base plate, and the motor shaft of the wrapping motor is connected to an engaging disc shaft on the lower side of the square-hole vertical plate. This constitutes an integrated silage pretreatment briquetting and wrapping machine.

[0006] This invention provides a single, efficient system for crushing, briquetting, and wrapping silage, saving labor and material costs, significantly improving silage pretreatment efficiency, and advancing the silage industry. Briquetting greatly reduces the volume of silage, facilitating transportation, storage, and carrying, saving space, and improving storage efficiency. Furthermore, the briquetted silage has a regular shape, making it easy to feed and measure. Farmers can divide the briquetted silage into appropriately sized pieces for convenient use. During briquetting, moisture is squeezed out of the silage, and the internal pressure promotes oxygen release, reducing oxidation and nutrient loss. Therefore, briquetted silage retains its nutritional value better than bulk silage. The higher density of briquetted silage makes it easier for livestock to digest and absorb, reducing waste and picky eating, and improving feed utilization. Additionally, the compaction during briquetting reduces oxygen content, lowering the risk of mold and uncontrolled fermentation, helping to maintain freshness and quality, and extending shelf life. This machine has a compact, novel, and reasonable structure. It has a high degree of automation and production efficiency, good operational continuity, low feed processing cost, and good feed product quality and feeding effect. Attached Figure Description

[0017] During operation, silage raw materials are intermittently fed into the upper chamber of the pretreatment box 9 from the feed cylinder 25 in equal weight proportions. The crushing motor 37 drives the rotating extrusion barrel 33 via the turntable 45 and connecting shaft 31 to roll the raw materials into the pretreatment area between the outer wall of the extrusion barrel 33 and the inner wall of the pretreatment box 9. Under the action of the spiral grooves 32 on the outer wall of the extrusion barrel 33, the silage raw materials are smoothly rolled into the pretreatment area. The spiral grooves 32 not only increase the friction on the silage raw materials, ensuring they do not fall out, but also pre-bend the material. After the raw materials are shaped into relatively regular and uniformly dense lumps, the lumps fall into the vertical cylinder 34 between the outer side of the turntable 45 and the extrusion roller 44 and the inner side wall of the vertical cylinder 34. Under the extrusion action of the turntable 45 and the extrusion roller 44 driven by the crushing motor 37, the lumps are extruded from the through holes 43 on the side wall of the vertical cylinder 34 and fall onto the discharge rotary conveyor belt assembly 39. They enter the area between the friction anti-slip extrusion upper roller 8 and the friction anti-slip extrusion lower roller 7 from the discharge port 38 on the lower side of the pretreatment box 9. The rotational power of the briquetting motor 15 passes through the pulley A14, the transmission belt A12, and the pulley in sequence. B11, drive shaft 30, pulley C13, drive belt B10, and extrusion drive pulley 28 drive the friction anti-slip extrusion lower roller 7 to rotate actively. Under the support and rotation of the friction anti-slip extrusion upper roller 8, each batch of lumpy raw material of equal weight is extruded into blocks. The blocks slide down the feed plate 6 onto the conveyor roller 24. Driven by the conveyor motor 17, sprocket 23, and drive chain 21, the conveyor roller 24 rotates and the block raw material gradually enters the left rotating ring 46 and right rotating ring 49 on the square vertical plate 19. At this time, the rotating film wrapping motor 20, through the biting disc shaft 18, left biting disc 4, and synchronous... The rotary belt 48 and the right engagement disc 5 drive the left rotating ring 46 and the right rotating ring 49 to rotate on the square vertical plate 19, respectively. These rotations, in turn, cause the left take-up roller 51 and the right take-up roller 50, both wrapped with plastic film, to rotate around the block material inside the square vertical plate 19. The ends of the plastic film wrapped on the left and right take-up rollers 51 and 50 are manually inserted into the block material. As the block material moves laterally, the plastic film gradually wraps around its exterior. After wrapping, the plastic film is manually cut and fixed. The wrapped block material is then discharged from the machine via the discharge plate 1. The anti-deviation roller 3 controls the precise trajectory of the block material on the conveyor roller 24, preventing deviation and ensuring the quality and effectiveness of the wrapping process.
