Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of feed processing, and in particular to a mixing tank with a stirring function. Background Art

[0002] Suckling piglets refer to piglets from the time they start suckling after birth to before weaning, usually 2-60 days old. During the period of raising suckling piglets, in order to improve the absorption rate of nutrients in the feed by the suckling piglets, it is often necessary to ferment the feed raw materials. Before fermentation, the feed and the bacteria used for fermentation are added to the mixing tank, and then the raw materials in the mixing tank are stirred so that the feed can be fully fermented.

[0003] After fermentation, the feed in the mixing tank can be discharged through the discharge pipe at the bottom of the mixing tank. Since the pig feed is usually viscous after mixing, the feed is easy to stick to the inner wall of the discharge pipe when discharging through the discharge pipe, resulting in an unsmooth discharge process and a long time to discharge the feed in the mixing tank. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to make the process of discharging feed in a mixing tank smoother, the present application provides a mixing tank with a stirring function.

[0005] The present application provides a mixing tank with a stirring function using the following technical solution:

[0006] A mixing tank with a stirring function comprises a tank body and a cleaning mechanism arranged on the tank body, a feeding pipe is arranged at the bottom of the tank body, the cleaning mechanism is located at the feeding pipe, the cleaning mechanism comprises a rotating rod, a scraper and a driving assembly, the rotating rod is coaxially arranged in the feeding pipe, the rotating rod is rotatably arranged on the inner wall of the feeding pipe, a plurality of scrapers are arranged on the rotating rod, the scrapers are abutted against the inner wall of the feeding pipe, the driving assembly is arranged on the feeding pipe, and the driving assembly is used to drive the rotating rod to rotate.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the tank is unloading, the driving component drives the rotating rod to rotate, and the rotating rod drives the scraper to rotate. The scraper can scrape off the feed adhering to the inner wall of the unloading pipe, so that the feed can be discharged from the unloading pipe more smoothly, which helps to reduce the time spent in the unloading process.

[0008] Optionally, the driving assembly includes a first rotating power component, a turntable, a bevel gear block and a bevel gear, the first rotating power component is arranged on the discharge pipe, the turntable is coaxially arranged at the output end of the first rotating power component, the turntable is located on the outside of the discharge pipe, the bevel gear block is arranged on the turntable, the bevel gear is coaxially arranged on the rotating rod, and the bevel gear can engage with the bevel gear block; an adjustment component for adjusting the opening and closing of the discharge pipe is arranged at the end of the discharge pipe.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the first rotating power member drives the turntable to rotate, and the turntable drives the bevel gear block to rotate continuously. Whenever the bevel gear block and the bevel gear are meshed, the rotation of the bevel gear block can drive the bevel gear to rotate. When the bevel gear block is disengaged from the meshing with the bevel gear, the rotation of the bevel gear block and the turntable will not drive the bevel gear to rotate; therefore, after the first rotating power member is started, the bevel gear can be rotated intermittently, thereby causing the rotating rod to rotate intermittently, which realizes the cleaning of the inner wall of the discharge pipe by the scraper without affecting the discharge process of the feed.

[0010] Optionally, the adjustment assembly includes a baffle and a driving member, wherein two baffles are provided, and the baffles are slidably provided at the end of the discharge pipe, and the sliding directions of the two baffles are opposite, and the driving member is provided on the discharge pipe, and the driving member is used to drive the baffle to slide.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the two baffles are slid toward the side close to each other. When the two baffles abut against each other, the feed discharge pipe is closed, so that the feed in the tank body can be fermented; when the two baffles are slid toward the side away from each other, the feed discharge pipe can be opened, so that the feed in the tank body can be discharged.

[0012] Optionally, the driving member is a double-headed screw rotatably arranged on the discharge pipe, the double-headed screw is arranged along the sliding direction of the baffle, the thread directions at both ends of the double-headed screw are opposite, one end of the double-headed screw is threadedly connected to one of the baffles, and the other end of the double-headed screw is threadedly connected to the other baffle.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the two baffles can be driven to slide in opposite directions by rotating the double-headed screw, so that the two baffles move away from or close to each other, thereby making it easy to control the opening and closing of the feeding pipe.

[0014] Optionally, a protective shell is provided on the discharge pipe, and the protective shell cover is arranged on the outside of the turntable and the bevel gear.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective shell can block the falling feed, thereby preventing the feed from falling onto the bevel gear block and the bevel gear, thereby facilitating the normal cooperation between the bevel gear block and the bevel gear and facilitating the normal rotation of the rotating rod.

[0016] Optionally, the end of the protective shell away from the discharge pipe is flared, and one end of the rotating rod is inserted into the protective shell.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the feed that falls onto the protective shell can slide down along the outer surface of the protective shell, and the feed is not easy to accumulate on the protective shell, which is conducive to the smooth discharge process.

[0018] Optionally, the scraper is in the shape of an elongated strip, and a connecting rod is connected between the rotating rod and the scraper.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the scraper is arranged in a strip shape, so that the contact area between the scraper and the feed can be reduced, thereby reducing the feed adhering to the scraper, making it easier for the feed to fall.

[0020] Optionally, the connecting rod includes a fixed rod, a movable rod and a spring, the fixed rod and the movable rod are arranged in parallel, the fixed rod is arranged on the rotating rod, the movable rod is slidably arranged on the fixed rod along its own length direction, the movable rod is connected to the scraper, and the spring is connected between the fixed rod and the movable rod, and the spring makes the movable rod tend to slide toward the side away from the fixed rod.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the spring makes the scraper press against the inner wall of the discharge pipe through the movable rod, thereby helping to ensure the scraper's cleaning effect on the inner wall of the discharge pipe; at the same time, the spring can play a buffering role on the scraper, helping to extend the service life of the scraper.

[0022] Optionally, a stirring mechanism is provided on the tank body, and the stirring mechanism includes a second rotating power member provided on the tank body, a rotating shaft provided at the output end of the second rotating power member, and a stirring rod provided on the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft and the stirring rod are both located in the tank body.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, after the second rotating power member is started, it can drive the rotating shaft to rotate, and the rotating shaft drives the stirring rod to rotate, so that the feed in the tank can be fully stirred, thereby accelerating the mixing and fermentation of the feed in the tank.

[0024] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0025] 1. When discharging, the rotating rod drives the scraper to rotate, and the scraper can scrape off the feed adhering to the inner wall of the discharge pipe, so that the feed can be discharged smoothly from the discharge pipe.

[0026] 2. The protective shell can block the falling feed, thereby preventing the feed from falling onto the bevel gear block and the bevel gear, thereby helping to ensure the coordination of the bevel gear block and the bevel gear, so that the rotating rod can rotate smoothly.

[0032] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] The present application embodiment discloses a mixing tank with a stirring function. Figure 1 The mixing tank with stirring function comprises a tank body 1 and a stirring mechanism 6 arranged on the tank body 1. The tank body 1 is cylindrical, and the axis of the tank body 1 is arranged vertically; a support leg 13 is arranged at the bottom of the tank body 1; a feed pipe 12 is arranged at the top of the tank body 1, and a discharge pipe 11 is arranged at the bottom of the tank body 1, and both the feed pipe 12 and the discharge pipe 11 are connected to the inside of the tank body 1.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 The stirring mechanism 6 includes a second rotating power member 61, a rotating shaft 62 and a stirring rod 63. The second rotating power member 61 is a motor, and the second rotating power member 61 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the tank body 1 by bolts. The output shaft of the second rotating power member 61 is vertically downward and is coaxially arranged with the tank body 1. The rotating shaft 62 is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second rotating power member 61, and the rotating shaft 62 is located in the tank body 1. The stirring rod 63 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 62, and a plurality of stirring rods 63 are provided, and the stirring rod 63 and the rotating shaft 62 are vertically fixedly connected. Therefore, after the second rotating power member 61 is started, it can drive the rotating shaft 62 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 62 drives the stirring rod 63 to rotate, thereby stirring the feed in the tank body 1 and accelerating the mixing and fermentation process of the feed.

[0035] Reference Figure 3The feeding tube 11 is a round tube, and a cleaning mechanism 2 is arranged at the feeding tube 11, and the cleaning mechanism 2 includes a rotating rod 21, a scraper 22 and a driving assembly 23. A connecting seat 111 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the feeding tube 11; the connecting seat 111 is in a long strip shape, and two connecting seats 111 are arranged, and are respectively fixedly connected to the top and bottom ends of the feeding tube 11. The rotating rod 21 is located in the feeding tube 11, and the rotating rod 21 and the feeding tube 11 are coaxially arranged, and the rotating rod 21 is arranged on the connecting seat 111 to rotate around its own axis. The scraper 22 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 21, and the length direction of the scraper 22 is parallel to the axis of the rotating rod 21; there are four scrapers 22, which are arranged in a circular array; the end of the scraper 22 away from the rotating rod 21 is sharp, and the sharp end of the scraper 22 abuts against the inner wall of the discharge pipe 11; therefore, when the rotating rod 21 rotates, the scraper 22 can be driven to rotate, thereby scraping off the feed adhering to the inner wall of the discharge pipe 11, so that the feed can be discharged smoothly.

[0036] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The driving assembly 23 includes a first rotating power member 231, a rotating disk 232, a bevel gear block 233 and a bevel gear 234. A support plate 113 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feeding tube 11; the first rotating power member 231 is a motor, and the first rotating power member 231 is fixedly connected to the support plate 113 by bolts, and the output shaft of the first rotating power member 231 is arranged along the radial direction of the feeding tube 11. A connecting shaft 2311 is coaxially fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first rotating power member 231, and the rotating disk 232 and the end of the connecting shaft 2311 away from the first rotating power member 231 are coaxially fixedly connected. The bevel gear block 233 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating disk 232 away from the connecting shaft 2311. The bottom end of the rotating rod 21 extends from the bottom of the feeding tube 11, and the bevel gear 234 is coaxially fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating rod 21, and the bevel gear 234 is located on the outside of the feeding tube 11. The bevel gear 234 is in a position where it can mesh with the bevel gear block 233. Therefore, after the first rotating power member 231 is started, the bevel gear block 233 can be driven to rotate continuously through the connecting shaft 2311 and the turntable 232; when the bevel gear block 233 and the bevel gear 234 are meshed, the rotation of the bevel gear block 233 can drive the bevel gear 234 to rotate; when the bevel gear block 233 is out of mesh with the bevel gear 234, the bevel gear 234 is in a stationary state; therefore, after the first rotating power member 231 is started, the bevel gear 234 can rotate intermittently, thereby causing the rotating rod 21 to rotate intermittently, which can not only scrape off the feed adhering to the inner wall of the discharge pipe 11, but also not easily affect the discharge of the feed.

[0037] In order to reduce the influence of the falling feed on the cooperation between the bevel gear 234 and the bevel gear block 233, the bottom of the connecting seat 111 is fixedly connected with a support rod 112, which is arranged vertically, and the bottom end of the support rod 112 is fixedly connected with a protective shell 4. The protective shell 4 is conical, and the axis of the protective shell 4 is coaxial with the axis of the feeding tube 11. Both ends of the protective shell 4 are open, and the opening diameter of the bottom end of the protective shell 4 is larger than the opening diameter of the top end of the protective shell 4; the diameter of the opening at the top end of the protective shell 4 is the same as the diameter of the rotating rod 21, and the bottom end of the rotating rod 21 is penetrated into the inside of the protective shell 4. The protective shell 4 is covered on the outside of the rotating disk 232, the bevel gear block 233 and the bevel gear 234, so that the protective shell 4 can block the falling feed, thereby preventing the feed from falling on the bevel gear block 233 and the bevel gear 234, which is conducive to the normal rotation of the rotating rod 21.

[0038] Furthermore, the scraper 22 is in the shape of an elongated strip, and a connecting rod 5 is connected between the scraper 22 and the rotating rod 21. Two connecting rods 5 are provided on each scraper 22, and the two connecting rods 5 are distributed up and down; the connecting rod 5 is arranged along the radial direction of the discharge pipe 11. The connecting rod 5 includes a fixed rod 51, a movable rod 52 and a spring 53. The fixed rod 51 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 21, and a mounting hole 511 is coaxially provided at one end of the fixed rod 51 away from the rotating rod 21. The diameter of the movable rod 52 is the same as the aperture of the mounting hole 511, and the movable rod 52 is slidably arranged in the mounting hole 511. One end of the movable rod 52 away from the rotating rod 21 is fixedly connected to the corresponding scraper 22. The spring 53 is connected between one end of the movable rod 52 close to the rotating rod 21 and the bottom wall of the mounting hole 511, and the spring 53 is in a compressed state. Therefore, the spring 53 makes the movable rod 52 have a tendency to slide toward the side away from the rotating rod 21, so that the spring 53 can make the scraper 22 press against the inner wall of the discharge pipe 11 through the movable rod 52, which can play a buffering role while ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0039] An adjustment component 3 is also provided at the bottom end of the discharge pipe 11 for controlling the opening and closing of the discharge pipe 11. The adjustment component 3 includes a baffle 31, a guide rod 32 and a driving member. The guide rod 32 is fixedly connected to the outer wall at the bottom of the tank body 1, and the guide rod 32 is arranged horizontally. Two baffles 31 are provided, and the top of the baffle 31 abuts against the bottom end of the discharge pipe 11; the baffle 31 is a semicircular plate, and the radius of the baffle 31 is slightly larger than the radius of the discharge pipe 11; a through hole is provided on the baffle 31, and the guide rod 32 is inserted in the through hole, so that the baffle 31 is slidably arranged on the guide rod 32; the arc surfaces of the two baffles 31 face the side away from each other, and the sliding directions of the two baffles 31 are opposite. After the two baffles 31 approach and abut each other, the feed discharge pipe 11 is in a closed state, and the feed in the tank body 1 can be stirred and fermented; after the two baffles 31 move to the side away from each other, the feed discharge pipe 11 is in an open state, and the feed in the tank body 1 can be discharged through the feed discharge pipe 11.

[0040] Reference Figure 4The first avoidance groove 311 and the second avoidance groove 312 are provided on the side where the two baffles 31 are close to each other. The first avoidance groove 311 is used to avoid the rotating rod 21, and the second avoidance groove 312 is used to avoid the support rod 112. When the two baffles 31 abut against each other, the wall surface of the first avoidance groove 311 abuts against the rotating rod 21, and the wall surface of the second avoidance groove 312 abuts against the support rod 112, thereby blocking the feed.

[0041] The driving member is a double-headed screw 33, which is parallel to the guide rod 32. The double-headed screw 33 is rotated around its own axis and is arranged on the outer wall of the bottom of the tank body 1; the thread directions of the two ends of the double-headed screw 33 are opposite. The two baffles 31 are fixedly connected with a protrusion 313, and the two protrusions 313 are provided with threaded holes. The two ends of the double-headed screw 33 are respectively threadedly connected with the two protrusions 313, so that the two baffles 31 can slide in the direction of approaching or moving away from each other by rotating the double-headed screw 33, so that the discharge pipe 11 is in a closed or open state. The end of the double-headed screw 33 is fixedly connected with a rocker 331, so that it is more convenient and labor-saving to rotate the double-headed screw 33.

[0042] The implementation principle of the mixing tank with stirring function in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: when discharging, the double-headed screw 33 is rotated so that the two baffles 31 move to the side away from each other, and the discharge pipe 11 is opened; the feed in the tank body 1 can be discharged through the discharge pipe 11 under the action of its own gravity. At this time, the first rotating power member 231 is in an open state, and the first rotating power member 231 can drive the rotating disk 232 and the bevel gear block 233 to rotate continuously, so that the bevel gear 234 rotates intermittently, and the rotating rod 21 rotates intermittently; when the rotating rod 21 rotates, it can drive the scraper 22 to rotate, thereby scraping off the feed adhering to the inner wall of the discharge pipe 11, so that the feed can be discharged smoothly through the discharge pipe 11.

[0043] The above are optional embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
