[0020] The utility model provides a device for uniformly mixing feed for experimental animal breeding. When conducting animal experiments, feeding animals with feed mixed with medicines and raw materials of different components and observing the reactions and changes of the animals is a kind of animal experiment technology. Experimenters need to use weighing equipment to measure different raw materials and medicines, and then pour these raw materials and medicines into containers, and use stirring equipment to stir and mix them. However, this operation will cause the following problems. In the process of measuring multiple raw materials and medicines with the help of weighing equipment and stirring the raw materials and medicines with the help of stirring equipment, multiple tools are needed, and the operation steps are cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in the problem of low efficiency of feed mixing operation. By setting an adjustment structure, in the initial state, the mixing drum covers the feed pipe, and raw materials or medicines of different components are poured into two feed barrels respectively according to needs. Through a transparent observation and scale, the proportion of the raw materials in the two feed barrels is judged. The mixing drum blocks the feeding pipe, and then the valve is opened, and the feed flows from the mixing barrel to the feeding frame through the discharge pipe, thereby achieving the goal of measuring feed and experimental drugs of different ingredients using two feeding barrels, and mixing and mixing the feed using the mixing barrel and the mixing drum.

[0035] The working principle of the feed uniform mixing device for experimental animal feeding provided by the utility model is as follows: when conducting animal experiments, feeding animals with feed mixed with drugs and raw materials of different components and observing the reactions and changes of the animals is a kind of animal experiment technology. The experimenter needs to use weighing equipment to measure different raw materials and drugs, and then pour these raw materials and drugs into containers, and use stirring equipment to stir and mix them. However, this operation will have the following problems: in the process of measuring multiple raw materials and drugs with weighing equipment and stirring the raw materials and drugs with stirring equipment, multiple tools are needed, the operation steps are cumbersome, time-consuming and labor-intensive. , which leads to the problem of low efficiency of feed preparation operation. By setting the adjustment structure 2, in the initial state, the mixing drum 212 covers the feeding pipe 204. The raw materials or medicines of different components are poured into the two feeding barrels 205 according to the needs. The proportion of the raw materials in the two feeding barrels 205 is judged through the transparent observation and scale 213, and then the joystick 209 is moved downward. The joystick 209 moves downward along the support plate 208. The joystick 209 drives the iron ring 211 to separate from the magnet 210. The joystick 209 drives the mixing drum 212 to move downward along the inner wall of the mixing barrel 201. When the mixing drum 212 moves to the bottom end of the inner wall of the mixing barrel 201, the mixing drum 212 is stirred. The barrel 212 no longer blocks the feeding pipe 204, and the raw materials or drugs in the two feeding barrels 205 enter the mixing barrel 201 through the feeding pipe 204, and then the joystick 209 is turned, and the joystick 209 drives the mixing barrel 212 to rotate, and the mixing barrel 212 fully mixes the materials in the mixing barrel 201. After the mixing is completed, the joystick 209 is moved upward, and the joystick 209 drives the iron ring 211 to move in the direction close to the magnet 210 until the magnet 210 and the iron ring 211 are attracted to fix the position of the joystick 209, and the mixing barrel 212 blocks the feeding pipe 204, and then the valve 203 is opened, and the feed flows from the mixing barrel 201 through the feeding pipe 202 into the feeding frame 1. When the feed barrel 205 is not in use, the cover plate 207 is used to cover the feed barrel 205 to prevent dust and impurities from entering the feed barrel 205. The operating lever 214 is used to drive the joystick 209 to rotate, which is convenient for the user to rotate the joystick 209. The joystick 209 is further limited by the positioning tube 215, so that the joystick 209 is more stable when moving up and down along the support plate 208. It is realized that the two feed barrels 205 are used to measure feed and experimental drugs with different ingredients, and the feed is stirred and mixed by the mixing barrel 201 and the mixing drum 212. The operation is simple and convenient, the feed mixing efficiency is improved, the feed is fully mixed, and the accuracy of the animal experimental results is improved.
[0036] During the experiment, the feeding frame 1 is used to feed the animals. The saliva of the animals mixes with the feed, causing the residual feed to stick to the bottom side of the feeding frame 1, which is not easy to clean. After a long time, the residual feed is easy to deteriorate and mold, affecting subsequent experiments. By setting the auxiliary structure 4, the scraper 45 is moved toward the bottom side of the feeding frame 1, and the scraper 45 drives the slide bar 44 to move downward along the moving block 43. During this process, the spring 46 is in a stretched state until the scraper 45 is close to the bottom side of the feeding frame 1, and then the scraper 45 is moved along the feeding frame 1. The scraper 45 is used to clean the bottom side of the feeding frame 1. During this process, the scraper 45 is driven by the slide bar 44 to The moving block 43 slides along the auxiliary groove 41 and the limit rod 42. When the scraper 45 moves to the other side of the feeding frame 1, the baffle 47 is slid upward to open the scraper 45, and the scraper 45 is continued to be moved to scrape the remaining feed out of the feeding frame 1, and then the scraper 45 is released. The scraper 45 moves upward and resets under the action of the elastic force of the spring 46, and then the hanging plate is moved along the feeding frame 1 to the side away from the baffle 47 to reset. The baffle 47 is operated with the help of the reserved groove 48, which is convenient for the user to move the baffle 47, so that after the animal eats, the scraper 45 is used to clean the feed stuck to the bottom out of the feeding frame 1, so as to prevent the feed from remaining for a long time and becoming moldy and deteriorating, which will affect the animals and experiments.
