Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of laying hen breeding, in particular to a feeding and stirring device for breeding. Background Art

[0002] Layers refer to chickens that are specially raised to lay eggs for the purpose of supplying eggs. Unlike broiler chickens, the main purpose of laying hens is to improve the quality of eggs and maintain or increase egg production, rather than to improve the quality of chicken meat.

[0003] In the current multi-layered automated chicken farming model, automatic timed feeding, automatic drinking water, automatic manure cleaning, and automatic egg collection are implemented. Workers entering and exiting also need to undergo multiple bathing, disinfection, and changing procedures. The purpose is to reduce contact between people and chickens and avoid the spread of viruses and bacteria, thereby producing low-bacteria, high-value eggs. One of the key steps to producing high-value eggs is to mix a variety of feeds for feeding. In large-scale farming models, dry feed is required for feeding. The reason for not using wet feed is that wet feed can easily lead to problems such as deterioration of the chicken house environment and accelerated deterioration of feed.

[0004] Therefore, how to mix a large amount of dry materials evenly without water as a solvent is a problem that needs to be solved. The traditional mixing tank with a stirring rod is prone to breakage and powderization of dry materials during the mixing process, which is not conducive to the feeding of laying hens. Therefore, it is necessary to design a stirring device that is not easy to cause breakage and powderization of dry materials, which can quickly mix a variety of dry materials evenly, and avoid direct contact between workers and the stirring device during the feeding and discharging process. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide a feeding and stirring device for breeding to solve the problems described in the background technology.

[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is achieved in this way:

[0007] A feeding and stirring device for breeding comprises a controller, a first bracket and a mounting plate arranged on the first bracket, a feed hopper, a rotating support seat and a driving mechanism are fixedly arranged above the mounting plate, a stirring drum is rotatably and horizontally mounted on the rotating support seat, the stirring drum comprises a cylindrical drum and a conical drum connected to the left and right ends of the cylindrical drum to form a shuttle-shaped drum, the left end of the stirring drum is open and connected to the feed hopper, the outer wall of the stirring drum is connected to the driving mechanism so that the stirring drum rotates on the rotating support seat with the central axis of the cylindrical drum as the center, a plurality of lifting plates are fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the stirring drum, the lifting plates extend left and right along the central axis of the cylindrical drum to the inside of the conical drums at both ends, a discharge port is arranged on the wall of the cylindrical drum, and a material discharging port is provided which can be opened and closed A blocking cover and a spring return mechanism are provided at the discharge port, and the spring return mechanism is used to drive the blocking cover to be in a closed state when no external force is applied. A through slot is provided in the mounting plate and runs through the top and bottom, and the range of the through slot is larger than the discharge port. When the mixing drum is rotated to the discharge port at the lowest point, the discharge port is aligned with the through slot. A discharge pipe is fixedly provided below the mounting plate, and the upper end of the discharge pipe has a pipe mask disposed below the through slot, and the lower end of the discharge pipe extends downwardly at an angle. An opening mechanism for driving the blocking cover to open is also provided below the mounting plate, and a positioning component is also provided on the mounting plate. A sensing part for detecting the positioning component is also provided on the outer wall of the mixing drum. The driving mechanism, the positioning component and the opening mechanism are all electrically connected to the controller.

[0008] When using the above solution, various dry materials are added into the mixing drum through the feed hopper, and the driving mechanism is started, which drives the mixing drum to rotate. Under the action of the lifting plate inside the mixing drum, various dry materials are continuously brought to a high place in the mixing drum and then fall down. Due to the shuttle-shaped characteristics of the mixing drum, the dry materials will continuously gather to the cylindrical drum and then separate during the mixing process, so as to achieve rapid mixing and stirring. Since the use of a stirring rod is avoided, the dry materials are prevented from being broken and powdered during the mixing process.

[0009] When discharging is required, the controller controls the driving mechanism to slow down. When the rotation speed of the driving mechanism is reduced to the set threshold, the mixing drum rotates slowly. At this time, the controller controls the positioning component. When the positioning component measures the sensing part, the driving mechanism stops rotating. At this time, the discharging port is just at the bottom. By setting the linkage between the positioning component, the sensing part and the driving mechanism, the mixing drum can rotate smoothly until the discharging port is at the bottom.

[0010] At this time, the controller controls the cover opening mechanism, which drives the blocking cover to open. Due to the shuttle-shaped characteristics of the mixing drum, the dry material will automatically gather in the cylindrical drum during discharge, and be discharged from the discharge port, enter the discharge pipe through the through slot, and flow to the subsequent equipment.

[0011] When the discharging is finished, the cover opening mechanism no longer acts on the blocking cover, and the blocking cover re-blocks the discharging opening under the action of the spring return mechanism.

[0012] From feeding to stirring to discharging, the device does not require workers to have direct contact with the device, thus reducing the risk of infection during the laying hen feeding process.

[0013] A further technical solution is that the driving mechanism includes a motor, a reduction gear and a driving gear, the motor is driven by the reduction gear, the reduction gear is driven by the driving gear, a transmission gear is also fixed on the outer wall of the mixing drum, the central axis of the transmission gear coincides with the central axis of the cylindrical drum, the transmission gear is meshed with the driving gear, and the motor is electrically connected to the controller.

[0014] When the above solution is used, the motor drives the reduction box, the reduction box drives the driving gear, the driving gear drives the transmission gear, and the transmission gear drives the mixing drum to rotate.

[0015] A further technical solution is that the lifting plates are distributed at equal angles with the central axis of the cylindrical tube as the axis.

[0016] When using the above solution, the lifting plates arranged at equal angles can make the mixing more uniform.

[0017] A further technical solution is that the spring return mechanism includes a plurality of telescopic rods arranged on the outer wall of the cylindrical tube outside the discharge port, the top of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cylindrical tube, the bottoms of the plurality of telescopic rods are commonly connected to a mounting ring, the center axis of the mounting ring is parallel to the center axis of the discharge port, the spring return mechanism also includes a plurality of sliding rods fixedly arranged at the bottom of the blocking cover, the sliding rods slide through the tube wall of the cylindrical tube and pass out of the cylindrical tube outward, the other end of the sliding rods is fixedly connected to the mounting ring, a spring is also sleeved outside the sliding rod, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cylindrical tube, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the mounting ring, when the blocking cover is not subjected to external force, the blocking cover moves in a direction away from the center of the cylindrical tube under the extension action of the spring, thereby resisting and blocking the discharge port.

[0018] A further technical solution is that the cover opening mechanism includes a third bracket and an electric push rod arranged on the third bracket, the electric push rod is electrically connected to the controller, the push rod of the electric push rod extends upward, the push rod of the electric push rod slides through the pipe wall of the discharge pipe and extends upward to be connected with a push rod, and when the mixing drum rotates to the discharge port at the lowest point, the push rod is aligned with the blocking cover.

[0019] When the above solution is used, the push rod of the electric push rod extends upward and hits the bottom of the blocking cover, the blocking cover moves upward, the blocking cover drives the slide rod to move upward, the slide rod drives the mounting ring to move upward, the spring is compressed, the discharge port is opened, and the mixed dry material is discharged from the discharge port. When the push rod retracts downward and leaves the blocking cover, the spring returns to drive the mounting ring to move downward, the mounting ring drives the slide rod to move downward, and the slide rod drives the blocking cover to move downward, thereby blocking the discharge port.

[0020] A further technical solution is that a ball head is fixedly provided on the top of the push rod.

[0021] When the above solution is used, the ball head can better resist the plugging cover when the angle is deviated.

[0022] A further technical solution is that the positioning component is an infrared sensor, and the sensing part is a convex block fixed on the cone.

[0023] When the above solution is used, the sensing positions of the sensing part and the infrared sensor are set so that when the sensing part triggers the infrared sensor, the discharge port is just within the lowermost range.

[0024] A further technical solution is that the end of the mixing drum that is not connected to the feed hopper is a closed end.

[0025] A further technical solution is that a limiting wheel is also provided outside the conical cylinder, the rotating support seat includes a support seat and a roller with an annular groove rotatably mounted on the support seat, the limiting wheel abuts against the roller and is arranged in the annular groove, and the mixing drum is rotatably mounted on the rotating support seat through the limiting wheel.

[0026] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0027] 1. Efficient mixing: The shuttle-shaped design of the mixing drum and the internal lifting plate are used to achieve rapid mixing and stirring of dry materials, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0028] 2. Avoid crushing: Since the use of a stirring rod is avoided, the dry material will not be crushed or powdered during the mixing process, maintaining the integrity of the raw materials.

[0029] 3. Accurate discharging: By setting the linkage between the positioning component, the sensing part and the driving mechanism, it is ensured that the mixing drum can rotate smoothly until the discharging port is at the lowest position to achieve accurate discharging.

[0030] 4. Automated operation: From feeding to mixing, and then to discharging, the entire process is automatically controlled, without the need for workers to directly contact the device, reducing manual intervention and the risk of infection. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
