Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of agricultural machinery technology, and in particular to an intelligent sheep feed mixing and blending machine. Background Technology

[0002] As an important branch of animal husbandry, sheep farming's economic benefits and sustainable development highly depend on scientific and precise ration supply. The physiological characteristics of ruminants (such as sheep) dictate that their diets must consist of a balanced combination of roughage (such as silage, hay, and straw) and concentrates (such as grains, oilseed cakes, and mineral and vitamin premixes) to meet the nutritional needs of their rumen microbial activity and different physiological stages of growth, reproduction, and meat production. However, feed ingredients from different sources, batches, and processing methods exhibit significant natural variability and complexity in their conventional nutrient components (such as dry matter, crude protein, energy, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, calcium, phosphorus, and vitamins). This variability is the primary challenge facing the design of scientific and precise ration formulations.

[0003] Currently, especially at the level of small and medium-sized farms and numerous small-scale farmers, the formulation of mutton sheep rations is generally plagued by serious problems of reliance on experience, arbitrariness, and extensive methods. The vast majority of farmers lack the necessary ability and awareness to test the nutritional components of feed ingredients, and even less the ability to scientifically formulate feed based on the actual nutritional value of the ingredients and the specific needs of the sheep (such as breed, growth stage, and production goals). They often rely on traditional methods passed down through generations or an extremely simplified "a few handfuls of hay + a few handfuls of feed" model. This experience-based feeding method has several fatal flaws: First, the risk of nutritional imbalance is extremely high. Because the precise nutrient content of specific ingredients is unknown, it is impossible to accurately meet the dynamic needs of mutton sheep at different stages for energy, protein, fiber, minerals, vitamins, etc., easily leading to insufficient or excessive nutrient supply. Insufficient nutrient supply directly inhibits growth rate, reduces reproductive performance, and weakens immunity; excessive nutrient supply results in serious waste of feed resources, increases feeding costs, and may even cause metabolic diseases. Second, feed costs remain high. Blindly adding or reducing certain raw materials, especially expensive concentrates (such as soybean meal and corn), fails to optimize costs while meeting nutritional requirements. Excessive addition leads to waste, while insufficient addition results in stunted growth, indirectly increasing the cost per unit weight gain. Thirdly, it hinders intensive and standardized production. The modern mutton sheep industry pursues large-scale, intensive, and standardized production to achieve stable product quality and economic benefits. The arbitrariness of experience-based feeding leads to significant differences in nutritional intake between different batches, different flocks, and even different individuals within the same flock. This makes production performance (daily weight gain, feed conversion ratio, slaughter weight, and carcass quality) difficult to predict and control, severely restricting industry upgrading. Fourthly, it increases the risk of disease. Long-term nutritional imbalance is a key factor inducing various nutritional metabolic diseases and sub-health conditions in mutton sheep, such as micronutrient deficiencies, vitamin deficiencies, and rumen dysfunction. This not only increases veterinary treatment costs but may also lead to increased mortality and culling rates.

[0004] Therefore, accurately measuring the conventional nutrient components of feed ingredients and, based on this and a precise nutrient requirement model for mutton sheep, scientifically calculating and implementing the optimal daily ration formula is a core technological link in achieving efficient, healthy, and low-cost mutton sheep farming. It is also an urgent need to promote the mutton sheep industry towards large-scale, intensive, standardized, and high-quality development. However, translating "scientific formulas" from theory into "precision feeding" on the farm faces a series of key technical bottlenecks and operational challenges. To address these, this solution proposes an intelligent mutton sheep ration mixing and blending machine. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention proposes an intelligent sheep feed mixing machine, which solves the problems of existing mixers that rely on manual experience, have low precision, and produce uneven mixing.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An intelligent sheep feed mixing and blending machine includes:

[0008] The feeding mechanism includes a mixing box, a storage tank installed on top of the mixing box for storing concentrate feed, and a conveyor belt installed on one side of the mixing box for conveying roughage. The mixing box has an inlet on one side, one end of the conveyor belt passes through the inlet and extends into the inside of the mixing box, and the bottom of the storage tank is fixed with an outlet pipe extending into the inside of the mixing box.

[0009] The testing facility includes a near-infrared nutrient rapid analyzer installed at the top of the feed inlet for detecting the components of roughage on the conveyor belt, an electronic scale installed in the mixing tank, a conveying assembly installed on top of the electronic scale for collecting roughage and concentrate, and a control center installed on top of the mixing tank. The near-infrared nutrient rapid analyzer and the electronic scale are both connected to the control center.

[0010] A mixing mechanism, comprising a mixing tank installed inside a mixing chamber for receiving feed output from a conveying assembly, and a stirring assembly installed inside the mixing tank;

[0011] A material blocking mechanism includes a top plate disposed inside the mixing tank and used to cover the top of the mixing tank, and a transmission assembly mounted on the mixing tank for driving the top plate to move. The top plate is drively connected to the material conveying assembly to drive the material conveying assembly to run when the top plate moves.

[0012] The feeding mechanism is installed on the top of the mixing tank and is connected to the top plate via a linkage component to disperse the feed output from the conveying component into the mixing tank when the top plate moves.

[0013] The above technical solution enables real-time detection of roughage nutrients and automatic calculation and dispensing of concentrate feed based on nutritional requirements. It also achieves uniform dispersion and efficient mixing of feed through the linkage between the feed distribution mechanism and the top plate, significantly improving the accuracy of ration formulation, mixing uniformity, and operational efficiency.

[0014] As a further improvement to the above solution, the top of the storage tank is covered with a top cover, and an electric valve connected to the control center is installed on the discharge pipe.

[0015] Through the above technical solutions, the top cover can prevent the concentrate feed from getting damp or contaminated, and the electric valve is precisely controlled by the control center to open and close, so as to realize the quantitative feeding of concentrate feed and improve the accuracy of the ratio.

[0016] As a further improvement to the above solution, the material conveying assembly includes a mounting plate installed on top of the electronic scale and a conveyor belt located on the outer periphery of the mounting plate. The top surface of the conveyor belt abuts against the top surface of the mounting plate, and the conveyor belt is located directly below the discharge pipe. Both ends of the mounting plate are rotatably connected to rollers for tensioning the conveyor belt. A scraper is fixed to the inner wall of the mixing tank along the width direction of the conveyor belt. The scraper is located directly above the mixing tank, and the top surface of the scraper abuts against the bottom surface of the conveyor belt.

[0017] Through the above technical solution, the conveyor belt is used to receive and transport coarse and fine feed, the electronic scale monitors the feed weight in real time, and the scraper can remove residual feed when the conveyor belt moves to avoid cross-contamination.

[0018] As a further improvement to the above solution, a rectangular limiting frame is fixed inside the mixing box and positioned directly above the conveyor belt. The length direction of the limiting frame is consistent with the length direction of the conveyor belt, and the side of the limiting frame near the mixing tank is open. The bottom surface of the limiting frame abuts against the top surface of the conveyor belt, and one end of the conveyor belt extending into the mixing box is located directly above the limiting frame.

[0019] Through the above technical solutions, the limiting frame can constrain the distribution range of feed on the conveyor belt and prevent spillage. The open design makes it easy for the feed to fall smoothly into the mixing tank after the proportioning is completed.

[0020] As a further improvement to the above scheme, one of the rollers near the mixing tank has fixed gears coaxially arranged at both ends, and two transmission racks are fixed on the bottom surface of the top plate, with the two transmission racks meshing with the two fixed gears respectively.

[0021] With the above technical solution, when the top plate moves, the fixed gear is driven to rotate through the transmission rack, which in turn drives the roller and the conveyor belt to move, realizing the linkage between material blocking and feeding, simplifying the structure and saving operating procedures.

[0022] As a further improvement to the above solution, the transmission assembly includes a transmission shaft rotatably connected to its inner wall along the width direction of the mixing box and a transmission gear fixed to one end of the transmission shaft. The top surface of the top plate has multiple toothed grooves that mesh with the transmission gear along the length direction of the mixing box. The outer wall of the mixing box facing the feed inlet has a connecting groove for the top plate to pass through. One end of the top plate extends through the connecting groove to the outside of the mixing box and is fixed with a cover plate for covering the connecting groove. A transmission motor for driving the transmission shaft to rotate is installed on the outer wall of the mixing box.

[0023] Through the above technical solution, the drive motor drives the top plate to move along the tooth groove through the drive shaft and drive gear, realizing the opening and closing of the mixing tank opening. The cover plate can seal the connecting groove to prevent feed from overflowing.

[0024] As a further improvement to the above solution, a baffle for sealing its opening is fixed on the top of the top cover near the limiting frame, and the height of the baffle is greater than or equal to the height of the limiting frame.

[0025] Through the above technical solution, the baffle can close the opening of the limiting frame during the mixing process, preventing feed from spilling prematurely and ensuring the accuracy and controllability of the mixing process.

[0026] As a further improvement to the above solution, the feeding mechanism includes a toothed ring coaxially arranged with and rotatably connected to the top of the mixing tank, a conical disk coaxially arranged inside the toothed ring, and multiple partitions fixed to the inner ring of the toothed ring. The inner ring of the toothed ring has the same diameter as the inner ring of the mixing tank. The tip of the conical disk faces upward, and there is a gap between the bottom outer periphery of the conical disk and the inner ring of the toothed ring for the feed to fall into the mixing tank. The bottom outer periphery of the conical disk is fixed to the inner ring of the mixing tank through a connecting rod, and the bottom surface of the partition abuts against the surface of the conical disk.

[0027] With the above technical solution, the feed falls onto the conical disc and is dispersed by the rotating baffle, falling into the mixing tank from different positions, avoiding local accumulation and improving mixing efficiency.

[0028] As a further improvement to the above solution, the bottom surface of the top plate is provided with a fixing groove along the length of the mixing box. The linkage mechanism includes a fixing rack fixed on one side of the inner wall along the length of the fixing groove and a linkage shaft rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mixing box. The top of the linkage shaft extends into the fixing groove and is fixed with a first linkage gear that meshes with the fixing rack. The bottom of the linkage shaft is fixed with a second linkage gear that meshes with the gear ring.

[0029] The above technical solution enables the linkage shaft to rotate while the top plate moves, and the linkage shaft in turn drives the gear ring to rotate, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the gear ring to rotate when the top plate moves.

[0030] As a further improvement to the above solution, the stirring assembly includes a stirring shaft rotatably connected to the center of the bottom of the mixing tank, multiple stirring rods fixed to the outer periphery of the stirring shaft, and multiple scrapers II fixed to the bottom of the outer periphery of the stirring shaft. One end of the scraper II abuts against the inner wall of the mixing tank. The bottom inner wall of the mixing tank is a conical structure with an upward convex shape. The bottom surface of the scraper II abuts against the bottom inner wall of the mixing tank. A discharge port is opened at the bottom of the outer periphery of the mixing tank. A sealing plate is hinged to the outside of the discharge port. The end of the sealing plate away from the hinge is fixed to the outer wall of the mixing tank by a fixing bolt. An operation port is opened on the side of the mixing box facing the discharge port. A receiving plate with one end extending to the outside of the operation port is fixed at the bottom of the discharge port.

[0031] The above technical solution involves setting the inner wall of the bottom of the mixing tank into a conical structure, which facilitates the discharge of feed from the outlet under the rotation of the scraper.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0033] 1. By setting up a batching mechanism, a detection mechanism, and a mixing mechanism, the conventional nutrient composition of roughage on the conveyor belt can be quickly measured using a near-infrared nutrient rapid analyzer. The measured nutrient composition data is sent to the control center. An electronic scale weighs the roughage fed onto the conveyor belt and transmits the data to the control center. The control center analyzes the nutrient composition and selects a suitable quality of concentrate feed, which is then fed onto the conveyor belt. Once the nutrient composition is satisfactory, the conveyor belt is driven to rotate and all the feed is fed into the mixing tank. After mixing, the sealing plate is opened, and the feed is discharged from the outlet. Finally, it is sent to the livestock shed for direct feeding, thus achieving the purpose of conveniently and automatically completing the ratio of roughage to concentrate feed, which helps to ensure the balance of nutrients in the feed.

[0034] 2. By setting up a baffle mechanism, not only can the feed on the conveyor belt be prevented from falling into the mixing tank before being properly proportioned, but the conveyor belt can also be rotated during the movement of the baffle. This achieves the purpose of automatically feeding the proportioned feed on the surface of the conveyor belt into the mixing tank while the top plate is opened, thereby saving operating procedures, reducing operating difficulty, and improving work efficiency.

[0035] 3. By setting up a feeding mechanism, the toothed ring is automatically driven to rotate during the movement of the top plate, so that the feed falling on the top surface of the conical disc falls into the mixing tank from different positions under the rotation of the partition. This avoids the feed from piling up in one place after falling into the mixing tank. The scattered feed helps to reduce the time for feed mixing, thereby improving the degree and efficiency of mixing. Attached Figure Description

[0045] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0046] Example 1:

[0047] Please combine Figure 1 - Figure 7 An intelligent sheep feed mixing and blending machine according to this embodiment includes:

[0048] The feed preparation mechanism includes a mixing tank 1, a storage tank 2 installed on top of the mixing tank 1 for storing concentrate feed, and a conveyor belt 5 installed on one side of the mixing tank 1 for conveying roughage. The mixing tank 1 has an inlet on one side, and one end of the conveyor belt 5 extends through the inlet into the inside of the mixing tank 1. The bottom of the storage tank 2 is fixed with an outlet pipe 24 extending into the inside of the mixing tank 1. The top of the storage tank 2 is covered with a top cover. The storage tank 2 stores concentrate feed with a defined nutrient content, while the conveyor belt 5 is used to transport roughage into the mixing tank 1. After the components in the roughage are tested, concentrate feed with a suitable proportion is added to the roughage, thereby completing the feed preparation and ensuring that the nutrients in the feed meet daily requirements.

[0049] The testing mechanism includes a near-infrared nutrient analyzer 3 installed at the top of the feed inlet for detecting the roughage components on the conveyor belt 5, an electronic scale 15 installed inside the mixing tank 1, a conveying assembly installed on top of the electronic scale 15 for receiving roughage and feed, and a control center 4 installed on top of the mixing tank 1. The near-infrared nutrient analyzer 3 and the electronic scale 15 are both connected to the control center 4. An electric valve connected to the control center 4 is installed on the discharge pipe 24. The conveying assembly includes a mounting plate 14 installed on top of the electronic scale 15 and a conveyor belt 19 located on the outer periphery of the mounting plate 14. The top surface of the conveyor belt 19 abuts against the top surface of the mounting plate 14, and the conveyor belt 19 is located directly below the discharge pipe 24. Rollers 32 for tensioning the conveyor belt 19 are rotatably connected to both ends of the mounting plate 14. A scraper 16 is fixed on the inner wall of the mixing tank 1, arranged along the width direction of the conveyor belt 19. The scraper 16 is located directly above the mixing tank 13, and the top surface of the scraper 16 is flush with the conveyor belt 19. When the bottom surface of the conveyor belt 5 is in contact with the feed, during the mixing process, the roughage conveyed on its surface will pass through the near-infrared nutrient rapid analyzer 3. After the near-infrared nutrient rapid analyzer 3 quickly measures the nutrient components in the roughage, the measured nutrient components are sent to the control center. The feed on the conveyor belt 5 enters the mixing box 1 and falls onto the top surface of the conveyor belt 19. The electronic scale 15 will send the weight of the roughage falling onto the top surface of the conveyor belt 19 to the control center 4 in real time. The control center will calculate the amount of concentrate feed to be added based on the weight of the roughage on the top surface of the conveyor belt 19. After the roughage is added, the control center 4 controls the electric valve to open, and the concentrate feed in the storage tank 2 falls into the top surface of the conveyor belt 19 through the discharge pipe 24. The electronic scale 15 also records the weight of the concentrate feed falling onto the conveyor belt 19 at the same time. When the amount of concentrate feed reaches the weight calculated by the control center 4 based on the amount of roughage, the electric valve is controlled to close, thereby completing the intelligent ratio of roughage and concentrate feed.

[0050] The mixing mechanism includes a mixing tank 13 installed inside the mixing box 1 to receive the feed output from the conveying assembly, and a stirring assembly installed inside the mixing tank 13. After the concentrate and roughage on the top surface of the conveyor belt 19 are proportioned, the roller 32 is driven to rotate to put the proportioned roughage and concentrate on the top surface of the conveyor belt 19 into the mixing mechanism, and then the stirring assembly mixes the feed in the mixing tank 13.

[0051] The material blocking mechanism includes a top plate 11 located inside the mixing tank 1 and used to cover the top of the mixing tank 13, and a transmission assembly mounted on the mixing tank 1 for driving the top plate 11 to move. The transmission assembly includes a transmission shaft 10 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mixing tank 1 along its width direction and a transmission gear 9 fixed to one end of the transmission shaft 10. The top surface of the top plate 11 has multiple toothed grooves along the length direction of the mixing tank 1 that mesh with the transmission gear 9. A connecting groove is provided on the outer wall of the mixing tank 1 on the side facing the feed inlet for the top plate 11 to pass through. One end of the top plate 11 extends through the connecting groove to the outside of the mixing tank 1 and is fixed. There is a cover plate 23 for covering the connecting groove. A drive motor is installed on the outer wall of the mixing box 1 to drive the drive shaft 10 to rotate. The top plate 11 is set to cover the top of the mixing tank 13 to prevent feed from falling into the mixing tank 1 without being weighed and proportioned. When it is necessary to open the top plate 11, the drive motor is started to rotate forward. After the drive motor rotates forward, it drives the drive shaft 10 to rotate forward, which in turn causes the drive gear 9 to rotate forward. After the drive gear 9 rotates forward, it drives the top plate 11 to move to the outside of the mixing box 1, thereby achieving the purpose of opening the top plate 11. Conversely, when closing the top plate 11, the drive motor is started to rotate in reverse.

[0052] The top plate 11 is connected to the conveying assembly for driving the conveying assembly when the top plate 11 moves. One of the rollers 32 near the mixing tank 13 has fixed gears 17 coaxially arranged at both ends. Two transmission racks 33 are fixed on the bottom surface of the top plate 11. The two transmission racks 33 mesh with the two fixed gears 17 respectively. Through the meshing between the transmission racks 33 and the fixed gears 17, the fixed gears 17 are driven to rotate forward when the top plate 11 is opened, which in turn drives the roller 32 to rotate forward. After the roller 32 rotates, it drives the conveyor belt 19 to rotate forward, so that the surface-proportioned roughage and concentrate are automatically put into the mixing tank 13 when the top cover 11 is opened, thereby saving operation procedures and improving work efficiency. Conversely, when the top cover 11 is closed, the roller 32 is driven to rotate in reverse, thereby rotating the conveyor belt 19 back to its original position.

[0053] In this embodiment, the stirring assembly includes a stirring shaft 29 rotatably connected to the center of the bottom of the mixing tank 13, a plurality of stirring rods 31 fixed to the outer periphery of the stirring shaft 29, and a plurality of scrapers 30 fixed to the bottom of the outer periphery of the stirring shaft 29. One end of the scraper 30 abuts against the inner wall of the mixing tank 13. A transmission motor 2 for driving the stirring shaft 29 to rotate is installed at the bottom of the mixing box 1. One end of the output shaft of the transmission motor 2 is connected to the bottom of the stirring shaft 29. After the feed falls into the mixing tank 13, the transmission motor 2 is started, which drives the stirring shaft 29 to rotate. After the stirring shaft 29 rotates, it drives the stirring rods 31 and the scrapers 30 to rotate synchronously, thereby stirring and mixing the feed in the mixing tank 13.

[0054] The bottom inner wall of the mixing tank 13 has an upwardly convex conical structure. The bottom surface of the scraper 2 30 abuts against the bottom inner wall of the mixing tank 13. A discharge port 26 is provided on the outer periphery of the mixing tank 13. A sealing plate 22 is hinged to the outside of the discharge port 26. The end of the sealing plate 22 away from the hinge is fixed to the outer wall of the mixing tank 13 by a fixing bolt 28. Bolt holes 27 for connecting the fixing bolt 28 are provided on the outer wall of the mixing tank 13. An operation port 12 is provided on the side of the mixing box 1 facing the discharge port 26. The bottom of the discharge port 26 is fixed with... A receiving plate 21 extends to the outside of the operating port 12. The receiving plate 21 is inclined downward towards the outside of the operating port 12. After unscrewing one end of the fixing bolt 28 from the bolt hole 27, the sealing plate 22 can be opened. At this time, under the rotation of the stirring shaft 29, the feed in the mixing tank 13 will be discharged from the discharge port 26 by the scraper 2 30. The feed discharged from the discharge port 26 falls on the receiving plate 21 and then slides off the receiving plate 21 to the outside of the mixing box 1, thus completing the intelligent and rapid mixing of the daily ration.

[0055] In this embodiment, both sides of the conveyor belt 5 are provided with side plates 6 arranged along its length. Both side plates 6 abut against the side of the conveyor belt 5, and one end of both side plates 6 extends through the feed inlet into the mixing box 1. By setting the side plates 6, the coarse feed on the conveyor belt 5 can be effectively prevented from falling off the side.

[0056] In this embodiment, a rectangular limiting frame 8 is fixed inside the mixing box 1 and located directly above the conveyor belt 19. The length direction of the limiting frame 8 is consistent with the length direction of the conveyor belt 19, and the side of the limiting frame 8 near the mixing tank 13 is open. The bottom surface of the limiting frame 8 abuts against the top surface of the conveyor belt 19. One end of the conveyor belt 5 extends into the mixing box 1 and is located directly above the limiting frame 8. The feed falling on the top surface of the conveyor belt 19 will be restricted to the inside of the limiting frame 8, thereby preventing the feed from falling off the side of the conveyor belt 19. The open design facilitates the feeding of the feed on the surface of the conveyor belt 19 into the mixing tank 13 when the conveyor belt 19 rotates forward.

[0057] In this embodiment, a baffle 7 for sealing its opening is fixed on the top of the top cover 11 near the side of the limiting frame 8. The height of the baffle 7 is greater than or equal to the height of the limiting frame 8. The baffle 7 is set to seal the opening of the limiting frame 8, which can effectively prevent the feed on the conveyor belt 19 from falling off the conveyor belt 19 before the proportioning is completed.

[0058] Example 2:

[0059] Combination Figure 2 - Figure 7This embodiment, based on Embodiment 1, further improves upon the following: it also includes a dispensing mechanism, which is installed on the top of the mixing tank 13 and connected to the top plate 11 via a linkage assembly. This mechanism disperses the feed output from the conveying assembly into the mixing tank 13 as the top plate 11 moves. The dispensing mechanism includes a toothed ring 18 coaxially arranged with and rotatably connected to the top of the mixing tank 13, a conical disc 25 coaxially arranged inside the toothed ring 18, and multiple partitions 20 fixed to the inner ring of the toothed ring 18. The inner ring of the toothed ring 18 has the same diameter as the inner ring of the mixing tank 13. The tip of the conical disc 25 faces upwards, and a space is provided between the outer periphery of the bottom of the conical disc 25 and the inner ring of the toothed ring 18 for the feed to fall into the mixing tank 13. The conical disc 25 is fixed to the inner ring of the mixing tank 13 via a connecting rod. The bottom surface of the baffle 20 abuts against the surface of the conical disc 25. When the top plate 11 moves, the toothed ring 18 is driven to rotate via a linkage component. Thus, when the top plate 11 opens and the feed on the conveyor belt 19 falls, the feed will first fall onto the conical disc 25. At this time, the toothed ring 18 will drive the baffle 20 to rotate during its rotation, thereby dispersing the feed falling on the surface of the conical disc 25 to different areas before it slides down into the mixing tank 13 under the action of gravity. This ensures that the feed does not accumulate inside the mixing tank 13, which helps to mix the feed evenly in the later stages and also saves time in mixing the feed.

[0060] In this embodiment, a fixed groove 36 is provided on the bottom surface of the top plate 11 along the length direction of the mixing box 1. The linkage mechanism includes a fixed rack fixed on one side of the inner wall along the length direction of the fixed groove 36 and a linkage shaft 34 rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mixing box 1. The top of the linkage shaft 34 extends into the fixed groove 36 and is fixed with a first linkage gear 35 that meshes with the fixed rack. The bottom of the linkage shaft 34 is fixed with a second linkage gear 37 that meshes with the gear ring 18. Through the arrangement of the linkage shaft 34, the first linkage gear 35 and the second linkage gear 37, the first linkage gear 35 will be driven to rotate during the movement of the top plate 11. The first linkage gear 35 will then drive the second linkage gear 37 to rotate simultaneously through the linkage shaft 34, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the gear ring 18 to rotate while the top plate 11 moves.

[0061] In this embodiment, the diameter of the first linkage gear 35 is set to be smaller than the diameter of the second linkage gear 37, thereby increasing the rotational speed of the gear ring 18 while keeping the rotational speed of the first linkage gear 35 constant.

[0062] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
