Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of pig farming, and specifically relates to a soaking device for pig feed grains. Background Art

[0002] The pig farming industry is a core part of the global livestock industry, and its economic value is closely related to the market demand for pork as the most consumed meat product. Corn is a commonly used pig feed grain. However, when directly fed, it is difficult for pigs to fully chew and digest due to its hard texture. Therefore, it is usually softened by soaking to promote starch release, thereby improving the digestion and absorption rate.

[0003] When soaking corn, most of the corn will sink to the bottom. When feeding, the sunken corn needs to be fished out. If an artificial fishing method is adopted, the labor intensity will increase. For this reason, a soaking device for pig feed grains is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a soaking device for pig feed grains to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0005] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0006] A soaking device for pig feed grains includes a reservoir. Two support plates are arranged at the upper end of the reservoir. A box body that can be flipped and has an open upper end is arranged between the two support plates. Above the box body, a pressing plate that can be lifted and is matched with the inner cavity of the box body is arranged. A plurality of through holes are opened on the pressing plate.

[0007] On the opposite sides of the reservoir, an installation frame is respectively fixed. A first sliding frame and a second sliding frame that can slide synchronously and in opposite directions are respectively arranged on the two installation frames. A storage box and a push plate are respectively fixed at the upper ends of the first sliding frame and the second sliding frame. When the opening of the box body faces downward and the pressing plate returns to the initial position away from the box body, the push plate can act on the surface of the pressing plate. And before the push plate acts on the surface of the pressing plate, the storage box has reached below the pressing plate, which is convenient for unloading the corn falling on the pressing plate. Compared with the artificial fishing method, the labor intensity is significantly reduced.

[0008] Further, on the opposite sides of the box body, coaxial rotating shafts are respectively fixed, and the two rotating shafts are respectively rotatably connected to the two support plates.

[0009] Further, the sliding directions of the first sliding frame and the second sliding frame are perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft.

[0010] Further, on the opposite sides of the pressing plate, a baffle is respectively arranged, and the two baffles are distributed along the axial direction parallel to the rotating shaft. The width of the push plate is equal to the distance between the two baffles.

[0011] Furthermore, the first sliding frame and the second sliding frame are respectively slidably connected to the two mounting frames, and the sliding directions are perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft. A first fixing plate is provided on each of the two mounting frames, and a rotatable lead screw is provided between the two first fixing plates. First external threads and second external threads with opposite helix directions and equal pitches are respectively provided at both ends of the lead screw. The first external thread and the second external thread respectively penetrate through the first sliding frame and the second sliding frame and are threadedly connected thereto.

[0012] Furthermore, the helix angles of the first external thread and the second external thread are both smaller than the equivalent friction angle.

[0013] Furthermore, a locking assembly is provided on one side of the water storage tank. The locking assembly includes a gear fixed on the lead screw and a second fixing plate fixed on the support plate. An L-shaped lifting rod is provided on the second fixing plate. The lifting rod penetrates through the second fixing plate along the vertical direction and is slidably connected thereto. A clamping block is provided at the lower end of the lifting rod, a contact plate is provided at the upper end of the lifting rod, and a spring is sleeved on the lifting rod. The two ends of the spring are respectively in contact with the contact plate and the second fixing plate. Under the elastic force of the spring, the clamping block can be engaged between two adjacent teeth of the gear.

[0014] Furthermore, a cam is fixed on the rotating shaft. When the cam rotates, its convex part can contact the contact plate and apply a downward pressure to the contact plate to make the clamping block descend;

[0015] And when the opening of the box body is flipped to face vertically downward, the convex part of the cam is in direct contact with the contact plate. At this time, the lifting rod and the clamping block descend to the lowest point position, and the clamping block just disengages from the gear.

[0016] Furthermore, a support frame is fixed on the upper end of the box body, and a cylinder is provided on the support frame to drive the pressing plate to lift.

[0017] Advantages of the present invention:

[0018] 1. By providing a box body that can be flipped above the water storage tank, providing a pressing plate that can enter the box body and cooperate with its inner cavity on the box body, and opening through holes in the pressing plate, it is ensured that the corn is completely immersed in water and it is convenient to separate the corn from the water during drainage; by providing a storage box and a push plate that can move synchronously and in opposite directions in the discharging assembly, it is convenient to unload the corn that has fallen on the pressing plate. Compared with the manual fishing method, the labor intensity is significantly reduced.

[0019] 2. By providing a locking assembly on one side of the water storage tank, it is avoided that the box body collides and interferes with the discharging assembly when it is flipped, and at the same time, it is ensured that when the discharging assembly is operating, the opening of the box body is flipped to face vertically downward to ensure that the push plate can contact the surface of the pressing plate to complete discharging.

[0027] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] As Figure 1 shown, a pig food soaking device includes a reservoir 1 for receiving the soaked wastewater. Four legs are provided at the lower end of the reservoir 1 to suspend it above the ground, and the water inside the reservoir 1 can be conveniently discharged by opening an outlet and a valve at the lower end of the reservoir 1;

[0029] An soaking component 2 is provided at the upper end of the reservoir 1 for soaking corn. As Figure 2 shown, the soaking component 2 includes two support plates 21 fixed to the upper end of the reservoir 1. A rotatable box body 22 is arranged between the two support plates 21. The upper end of the box body 22 is open and filled with water. Corn is put into the box body 22 from the upper end for soaking. After soaking, by controlling the box body 22 to turn downward, the water in the box body 22 can be poured into the reservoir 1;

[0030] In this embodiment, coaxial rotating shafts 23 are respectively fixed to opposite sides of the box body 22. The two rotating shafts 23 are respectively rotatably connected to the two support plates 21. By arranging a motor on one of the support plates 21 to drive the rotation of the rotating shaft 23, the box body 22 can be driven to flip around the rotating shaft 23.

[0031] A support frame 24 is fixed to the upper end of the box body 22. A cylinder 25 is arranged on the support frame 24. A pressing plate 26 is fixed to the end of the driving shaft of the cylinder 25. A plurality of through holes are formed in the pressing plate 26. Driven by the cylinder 25, the pressing plate 26 can enter the box body 22 and cooperate with the inner cavity of the box body 22, so that part of the corn floating on the water surface can be pressed into the water for sufficient soaking; and, after the soaking is completed, when the box body 22 is reversed, the pressing plate 26 can prevent the corn from falling into the reservoir, realizing the separation of the corn and the water.

[0032] When the box body 22 is flipped to face directly downward, after the water in the box body 22 is drained, the control box body pressing plate 26 leaves the box body 22. At this time, the corn is affected by gravity and can fall on the pressing plate 26, and thus leave the box body 22 together with the pressing plate 26; then, the discharging assembly 3 arranged on the reservoir 1 is used to discharge the corn falling on the pressing plate 26;

[0033] As Figure 4 shown, the discharging assembly 3 includes two mounting frames 31. The two mounting frames 31 are respectively fixed to opposite sides of the mounting frame 31. A first sliding frame 32 and a second sliding frame 33 are respectively arranged on the two mounting frames 31. The first sliding frame 32 and the second sliding frame 33 can slide synchronously and in opposite directions, and the sliding direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 23; a storage box 34 and a pushing plate 35 are respectively fixed to the upper ends of the first sliding frame 32 and the second sliding frame 33. When the pressing plate 26 returns to the initial position away from the box body 22 driven by the cylinder 25, the sliding of the pushing plate 35 can act on the surface of the pressing plate 26, so as to push out the corn on the pressing plate 26; and, before the pushing plate 35 acts on the surface of the pressing plate 26, the storage box 34 has already reached below the pressing plate 26; with the continuous movement of the pushing plate 35, the corn can be pushed out of the storage box 34, and the storage box 34 also continuously approaches the pushing plate 35 to update the landing point of the corn in the storage box 34, so as to avoid excessive stacking of the corn at one place and causing overflow;

[0034] In this embodiment, the first sliding frame 32 and the second sliding frame 33 are respectively slidably connected to the two mounting frames 31, and the sliding direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 23. A first fixing plate 311 is respectively arranged on the two mounting frames 31. A lead screw 36 is rotatably connected between the two first fixing plates 311. As Figure 5As shown, first external threads 361 and second external threads 362 with opposite helix directions and equal pitches are respectively provided at both ends of the lead screw 36. The first external threads 361 and the second external threads 362 respectively penetrate through the first sliding bracket 32 and the second sliding bracket 33 and are threadedly connected thereto. By arranging a motor on one of the first fixing plates 311 to drive the lead screw 36 to rotate, synchronous reverse sliding of the first sliding bracket 32 and the second sliding bracket 33 can be achieved;

[0035] Moreover, in order to ensure the stability of the first sliding bracket 32 and the second sliding bracket 33 after position adjustment, the lead screw 36 needs to have self-locking property, that is, the helix angles of the first external threads 361 and the second external threads 362 are both smaller than the equivalent friction angle.

[0036] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, a baffle 261 is respectively arranged on opposite sides of the pressing plate 26, and the two baffles 261 are distributed along the axial direction parallel to the rotating shaft 23, and the width of the pushing plate 35 is equal to the distance between the two baffles 261. Thus, when the pushing plate 35 pushes the material along the axial direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft 23, the baffle 261 can prevent the corn from falling from other directions, resulting in incomplete material receiving.

[0037] It is worth mentioning that, in order to avoid collision interference between the box body 22 and the discharging assembly when the box body 22 is turned over, and at the same time to ensure that when the discharging assembly operates, the opening of the box body 22 is turned over to be vertically downward (the pressing plate 26 is turned over to be horizontal) to ensure that the pushing plate 35 can contact the surface of the pressing plate 26 to complete discharging; in this embodiment, by arranging a locking assembly 4 on one side of the water storage tank 1, the operation timing of the discharging assembly 3 is controlled, so that the discharging assembly 3 can operate only when the opening of the box body 22 is turned over to be vertically downward;

[0038] As Figure 6 shown, the locking assembly 4 includes a gear 41 fixed on the lead screw 36 and a second fixing plate 42 fixed on the support plate 21. An L-shaped lifting rod 43 is arranged on the second fixing plate 42. The lifting rod 43 penetrates through the second fixing plate 42 along the vertical direction and is slidably connected thereto. A clamping block 44 is arranged at the lower end of the lifting rod 43. The clamping block 44 can be engaged between adjacent teeth of the gear 41 when it rises. A contact plate 45 is arranged at the upper end of the lifting rod 43. A spring 46 is sleeved on the lifting rod 43. Two ends of the spring 46 are respectively in contact with the contact plate 45 and the second fixing plate 42. Under the elastic force of the spring 46, the clamping block 44 can be engaged between adjacent teeth of the gear 41, thereby restricting the rotation of the lead screw 36 to achieve the purpose of restricting the operation of the discharging assembly 3;

[0039] A cam 47 is fixed on the rotating shaft 23. When the cam 47 rotates, its convex part can contact the contact plate 45 and apply a downward pressure to the contact plate 45 to make the lifting rod 43 and the latch 44 descend. Moreover, when the opening of the box body 22 is turned to face vertically downward, the convex part of the cam 47 is in direct contact with the contact plate 45, and the lifting rod 43 and the latch 44 descend to the lowest point. At this time, the latch 44 just disengages from the gear 41, thus realizing that: only when the opening of the box body 22 is turned to face vertically downward, can the unloading assembly 3 operate.

[0040] Working principle:

[0041] By arranging a box body 22 that can be turned over above the reservoir 1, arranging a pressing plate 26 on the box body 22 that can enter the box body 22 and cooperate with its inner cavity, and arranging through holes in the pressing plate 26, it is ensured that the corn is completely immersed in water and the corn can be separated from the water conveniently when draining; by arranging a storage box 34 and a push plate 35 that can move synchronously and in opposite directions in the unloading assembly 3, it is convenient to unload the corn falling on the pressing plate 26. Compared with the manual fishing method, the labor intensity is significantly reduced. By arranging a locking assembly 4 on one side of the reservoir, it is avoided that the box body 22 collides and interferes with the unloading assembly when turning over, and at the same time, it is ensured that when the unloading assembly operates, the opening of the box body 22 is turned to face vertically downward to ensure that the push plate 35 can contact the surface of the pressing plate 26 to complete unloading.
