Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a horizontal feed mixer and a method for using the same. BACKGROUND
[0002] Feed is the basis for the development of animal husbandry and breeding, and its quality is directly related to the growth efficiency, health level and economic benefits of breeding animals. In the feed processing process, the mixing process is the key link to ensure uniform distribution of nutritional ingredients and improve feed quality. Uniformity is one of the core indicators for evaluating feed quality, and poor uniformity can lead to uneven intake of nutrients by animals, resulting in growth retardation, decreased production performance, and even metabolic diseases.
[0003] Currently, the mixing equipment widely used in the feed industry is mainly a horizontal screw belt mixer. This type of equipment usually includes a U-shaped or cylindrical horizontal shell, which has one or two rotors with helical belt blades inside. When working, the rotor rotates, and the material is pushed from both ends to the middle or from the middle to both ends by the helical belt, realizing macro-convection and shear mixing. This type of equipment has the advantages of large single-batch processing capacity, relatively short mixing cycle, and adaptability to the addition of liquid feed, and has become the industry mainstream.
[0004] However, the existing traditional horizontal feed mixer is mainly designed for fixed installation, with a large and heavy body, a high center of gravity, and a simple support leg or base frame at the bottom, without integrated special moving mechanism. If it needs to be moved, it must rely on external lifting equipment for lifting or carrying, which is cumbersome and has safety risks, and has strict requirements for workshop space and passages; and when the production process needs to be adjusted, the capacity needs to be expanded, or the equipment needs to be maintained, the fixed installation of the mixer becomes a "fixed obstacle" on the production line, which cannot be flexibly adjusted, resulting in low utilization rate of workshop space, difficulty in reorganizing the production line, and restricting the flexibility and upgrading of the entire production system.
[0005] For scenarios with multiple scattered feeding points or the need to provide on-site processing services, fixed mixers cannot meet the needs of mobile or mobile production. Although there are some simple wheel modifications on the market, they often lack structural strength, have no shock-absorbing locking devices, etc., resulting in damage during movement and unstable operation after positioning, which cannot meet the reliability standards for industrial use.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a horizontal feed mixer and a method for using the same to solve the above problems. SUMMARY

A connecting rod 63 is inserted into the mounting plate 62, with both ends of the connecting rod 63 mounted on two side moving screws 44 respectively. The two side moving screws 44 rotate synchronously, and the connecting rod 63 drives the caster wheel 61 to move in and out of the moving groove 42.
[0023] The mounting plate 62 has a connecting hole 621 for fixing the connecting rod 63. Both ends of the connecting rod 63 have screw holes 631 for matching the moving lead screw 44.

[0024] The auxiliary moving component 64 includes a groove 641 disposed on the top of the mounting plate 62. Fixed shafts 642 are installed on both sides of the inner wall of the groove 641. Rollers 643 are installed on the fixed shafts 642. The bottom of the rollers 643 does not contact the bottom of the groove 641, and the top of the rollers 643 contacts the auxiliary moving groove 46. Multiple sets of fixed shafts 642 and rollers 643 are provided, and the top of the groove 641 does not contact the inner top of the moving groove 42.
[0025] A partition 47 is provided in the middle of the mounting slot 43, and movable lead screws 44 are installed on both sides of the partition 47. The lead screw motor 45 on the same side synchronously drives the movable lead screws 44.

The scissor arms 52 between the upper and lower support plates 51 can cross and retract into the support plate 51. That is, the support plate 51 has a retraction groove 55. The lifting cylinder 53 drives the scissor arms 52 to cross, so that the crossing angle changes, that is, the distance between the support plates 51 changes.
[0028] The lifting height of the lifting component 5 should be at least greater than the landing height of the caster wheel component 6, that is, when the lifting component 5 is lifted, the caster wheel 61 should be off the ground.
[0029] The top of the bearing base plate 41 is provided with multiple mounting holes 49, and the bottom of the support frame 3 extends with multiple support feet 31. The bottom of the multiple support feet 31 is provided with a mating plate 32. The multiple mating plates 32 are provided with multiple fixing holes 33 that match the mounting holes 49. Bolts 34 are installed in the multiple fixing holes 33 and mounting holes 49.
[0030] A method of using a horizontal feed mixer includes: S1. The lead screw motors 45 on both sides of the base plate 41 in the control walking assembly 4 are started, driving the symmetrically arranged moving lead screws 44 in the mounting groove 43 to rotate synchronously; the moving lead screws 44 cooperate with the connecting rods 63 through the screw holes 631 at both ends, driving the universal wheel assembly 6 to move outward along the moving groove 42, and the rollers 643 in the auxiliary moving assembly 64 move synchronously along the auxiliary moving groove 46. S2. Push the horizontal mixer body 1 and move the whole equipment by rolling the casters 61. During the movement, the direction of movement can be adjusted by the steering function of the casters 61 until the equipment reaches the preset feed mixing operation position. After reaching the designated position, step on the locking plate 65 to stop the casters 61 from rotating. S3. The lifting cylinder 53 in the lifting assembly 5 is started, driving the scissor arm 52 to spread out in a cross shape around the central axis 54; the support plates 51 at the upper and lower ends of the scissor arm 52 gradually move away from each other as the scissor arm 52 spreads out, causing the support base plate 41 to be lifted upward as a whole; the lifting continues until the lifting height of the lifting assembly 5 is greater than the landing height of the caster wheel assembly 6, at which point the caster wheel 61 is completely lifted off the ground; S4. After the lifting components 5 at the four corners of the bottom of the support base plate 41 fully support the equipment, stop the lifting cylinder 53 from working; check the connection status between the support frame 3 and the support base plate 41, and ensure that the mating plate 32 at the bottom of the support foot 31 is firmly connected to the mounting hole 49 through the fixing hole 33 by the bolt 34 to avoid shaking during equipment operation. S5. After adding the feed ingredients to be mixed into the body 1 of the horizontal mixer, start the mixing motor 2 installed at the end; the mixing motor 2 drives the mixing mechanism inside the body 1 of the horizontal mixer to run and stir and mix the feed ingredients; according to the feed mixing process requirements, control the running time and speed of the mixing motor 2 to complete the preset mixing operation process.
[0031] In this invention, the mixing motor 2 is installed at the end of the horizontal mixer body 1 to ensure a reliable transmission connection between the mixing motor 2 and the mixing mechanism inside the body. The support frame 3 is welded or bolted to the outer wall of the horizontal mixer body 1 to ensure that the connection strength between the support frame 3 and the body meets the load-bearing requirements of the equipment. Lifting components 5 are installed in the lifting grooves 48 at the four corners of the bottom of the support base plate 41, and the supporting plate 51 at the top of the lifting component 5 is fixed to the inner wall of the lifting groove 48. At the corresponding position of the moving groove 42 at the bottom of the support base plate 41, two installation areas are separated in the installation groove 43 by a partition 47, and symmetrical moving screws 44 are installed in each area. Screw motors 45 are installed on both sides of the support base plate 41 at the positions corresponding to the moving screws 44, ensuring that the screw motors 45 can synchronously drive the moving screws 44 on the same side. The two ends of the connecting rod 63 in the universal wheel assembly 6 are connected to the moving screws 44 through the screw holes 631, and the mounting plate 62 is sleeved on the connecting rod 63 through the connecting holes 621. At the same time, the rollers 643 of the auxiliary moving component 64 are correspondingly inserted into the auxiliary moving groove 46. A locking plate 65 is installed on the outer shell of the universal wheel 61, ensuring that the locking plate 65 can make tight contact with the outer wall of the tire of the universal wheel 61 after being pressed. Align the support feet 31 at the bottom of the support frame 3 with the mounting holes 49 at the top of the bearing base plate 41, and securely connect the connecting plate 32 to the bearing base plate 41 using bolts 34 through the fixing holes 33 on the connecting plate 32.
[0032] Specifically, the lead screw motors 45 on both sides of the bearing base plate 41 are started, driving the movable lead screw 44 in the mounting groove 43 to rotate synchronously. The movable lead screw 44, through cooperation with the connecting rod 63, drives the caster wheel assembly 6 to move outward along the moving groove 42 until the caster wheel 61 is fully extended out of the moving groove 42 and contacts the ground. During this process, the rollers 643 of the auxiliary moving assembly 64 move synchronously along the auxiliary moving groove 46, providing guidance and support for the movement of the caster wheel assembly 6.
[0033] Specifically, the staff pushes the horizontal mixer body 1 and uses the rolling and turning function of the casters 61 to move the equipment to the preset feed mixing operation position; after reaching the designated position, the staff steps on the locking plate 65 to make the locking plate 65 make tight contact with the outer wall of the tire of the casters 61, preventing the casters 61 from rotating and achieving temporary positioning of the equipment.
[0034] Specifically, the lifting cylinder 53 in the lifting assembly 5 is activated, driving the scissor arms 52 to extend crosswise around the central axis 54. The support plates 51 at the upper and lower ends of the scissor arms 52 move away from each other, causing the supporting base plate 41 to be lifted upwards as a whole. The lifting continues until the lifting height of the lifting assembly 5 is greater than the landing height of the caster wheel assembly 6. At this point, the caster wheels 61 are completely off the ground, and the equipment is fully supported by the lifting assembly 5. The lifting cylinder 53 is then stopped, and the connection status between the support frame 3 and the supporting base plate 41 is checked to ensure that the bolts 34 are not loose and that the mating plate 32 is tightly fitted with the supporting base plate 41 to prevent shaking during equipment operation.
[0035] Specifically, feed ingredients to be mixed are added into the body 1 of the horizontal mixer. The amount and order of addition of the ingredients are controlled according to the feed mixing process requirements. The mixing motor 2 is started to drive the mixing mechanism inside the machine body to stir and mix the feed ingredients. The running time and speed of the mixing motor 2 are adjusted according to the process requirements to complete the preset mixing operation process.
[0036] Specifically, after the mixing operation is completed, the mixing motor 2 is turned off, and after the mixing mechanism stops operating, the mixed feed is discharged. The lifting cylinder 53 is activated, driving the scissor arm 52 to retract, causing the supporting base plate 41 to descend until the casters 61 contact the ground, and the supporting plate 51 of the lifting assembly 5 retracts to its initial position. The unlocking device of the locking plate 65 is then pressed down to release the lock on the casters 61. The lead screw motor 45 is activated, driving the moving lead screw 44 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the caster assembly 6 to retract into the moving slot 42, thus allowing the equipment to be moved to the next working or storage position.
[0037] In this invention, the equipment is equipped with a walking component 4, which drives the moving screw 44 to rotate via a screw motor 45. This allows the caster wheel assembly 6 to extend or retract from the moving slot 42. When extended, it facilitates flexible movement of the equipment, and when retracted, it prevents the caster wheel 61 from being affected by external forces during operation. At the same time, the lifting component 5 can lift the equipment, causing the caster wheel 61 to leave the ground. The lifting component 5 provides stable support, and combined with the temporary positioning function of the locking plate 65, it realizes a quick switch between equipment movement and stable operation, effectively avoiding shaking during equipment operation and ensuring mixing quality.
[0038] In this invention, the caster assembly 6 is equipped with an auxiliary moving component 64, and the rollers 643 move along the auxiliary moving groove 46, providing guidance and support for the movement of the caster assembly 6, reducing friction during movement and preventing the caster assembly 6 from tilting; the lifting component 5 adopts a combination structure of scissor arm 52 and lifting cylinder 53, which has strong load-bearing capacity, adjustable lifting height, and the scissor arm 52 can retract into the shrinkage groove 55 in the receiving plate 51, saving storage space; the support frame 3 and the supporting base plate 41 are firmly connected by bolts 34, further improving the overall stability of the equipment.
[0039] In this invention, the steps for using the equipment are clear. Operators can control the operation of the lead screw motor 45, the lifting cylinder 53, and the mixing motor 2 to complete the movement, positioning, and mixing operations of the equipment. At the same time, the equipment can adjust the running time and speed of the mixing motor 2 according to the feed mixing process requirements, making it suitable for different types and ratios of feed mixing operations, thus improving the versatility and practicality of the equipment.
[0040] In this invention, the lifting component 5 provides support during equipment operation, which avoids the casters 61 bearing the weight of the equipment and the impact force of operation, reduces the wear of the casters 61, and extends the service life of the casters 61; at the same time, the stable support structure also reduces the vibration and wear of various parts of the equipment, which is conducive to extending the overall service life of the equipment.
[0041] The foregoing has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
