Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of feed processing equipment, in particular to a molasses mixing device for dairy cow feed. Background Art
[0002] As a nutrient-rich supplement, molasses contains carbohydrates, vitamins and trace elements, which can promote the utilization of organic acids and ammonia nitrogen by rumen microorganisms of dairy cows and meet the nutrient and energy needs of dairy cows, thereby improving feed utilization efficiency, milk production and milk protein content of dairy cows. Molasses has good binding effect and palatability, which can increase the feed intake of dairy cows and increase nutritional intake.
[0003] However, molasses has a certain viscosity and is not easy to mix with dairy cow feed when added. At present, the spraying method is often adopted, in which molasses is sprayed on the surface of the feed, and then the sprayed molasses is brought into contact with the unsprayed feed by stirring. This method still cannot prevent the feed in the middle that has not been turned over and stirred to the spraying point from being mixed with molasses, and the feed mixed with molasses in some areas adheres to other feeds to form lumps, making it impossible to mix enough molasses in the feed in other areas. The uneven mixing of dairy cow feed and molasses will lead to insufficient nutritional cost of some feeds, which will affect the nutritional intake of dairy cows. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a cow feed molasses mixing device to solve the problem that the cow feed and molasses are not mixed evenly because the feed in some areas cannot be mixed with molasses.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0019] The core of the utility model is to provide a cow feed molasses mixing device, which solves the problem that the cow feed and molasses are not mixed evenly because the feed in some areas cannot be mixed with molasses.
[0020] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a molasses mixing device for dairy cow feed provided by the utility model. Figure 2 For the schematic diagram of the hollow stirring rod and the hollow horizontal rod structure provided by the utility model, see Figure 1 to Figure 2 shown.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] A molasses mixing device for dairy cow feed comprises a mixing tank 1 and a storage tank 2 located outside the mixing tank 1. Figure 1The mixing tank 1 is used as a mixing container for cow feed and molasses, and the storage tank 2 is used to hold molasses. A horizontal delivery pipe 3 is arranged inside the mixing tank 1. The outlet of the storage tank 2 is connected to the delivery pipe 3 through a short pipe 4. The delivery pump 5 arranged on the short pipe 4 is started to deliver the molasses in the storage tank 2 into the delivery pipe 3. A rotating shaft 6 is sleeved on the delivery pipe 3. The rotating shaft 6 is connected to a rotating motor 7. Hollow stirring rods 8 are evenly distributed on the rotating shaft 6. The rotating shaft 6 is driven to rotate by the rotating motor 7, and the hollow stirring rods 8 rotate accordingly to stir the cow feed in the mixing tank 1. The delivery pipe 3 is connected to the hollow stirring rod 8. While stirring, the delivery pump 5 delivers the molasses in the delivery pipe 3 into the hollow stirring rod 8. A discharge port 9 is provided on the hollow stirring rod 8. See Figure 2 , molasses contacts and mixes with the stirring cow feed through the discharge port 9. During the stirring process, the hollow stirring rod 8 enables the feed located in the middle of the mixing tank 1 to be fully mixed with molasses, thereby improving the mixing uniformity of the cow feed and molasses. The storage tank 2 is connected to the water storage tank 11 through the pipeline 10. The pipeline 10 is provided with a flow valve 12. The water in the water storage tank 11 enters the storage tank 2 through the pipeline 10 to dilute the molasses. The water ratio of the diluted molasses can be controlled by the flow valve 12 to ensure that while improving the fluidity of the molasses, excessive water can be avoided to affect the quality of the cow feed. A spraying mechanism 13 is provided on the top side of the mixing tank 1. The spraying mechanism 13 is connected to the storage tank 2. The molasses in the storage tank 2 is evenly sprayed on the feed that is flipped and moved to the top of the mixing tank 1 through the spraying mechanism 13. Combined with the stirring and mixing of the hollow stirring rod 8 and the molasses at the discharge port 9 during stirring, it can be ensured that the cow feed in each area of the mixing tank 1 can be evenly mixed with molasses, thereby ensuring balanced nutrition of the feed.
[0023] In order to improve the fluidity of molasses and make it easier to mix molasses with cow feed, a heating element 14 is provided in the water storage tank 11. Figure 1 The water temperature in the water storage tank 11 is heated by the heating element 14. When the molasses is diluted with the water in the water storage tank 11, the heated hot water can further improve the fluidity of the molasses. A temperature sensor 15 is installed on the water storage tank 11. The water temperature can be adjusted by the temperature sensor 15 to avoid the inactivation of nutrients in the molasses at high temperatures and ensure the nutritional value of the molasses. Compared with the method of directly heating the molasses with a heating element to improve its fluidity, the heat transfer between the hot water and the molasses during the dilution of the molasses by increasing the water temperature can achieve the effect of heating while diluting, thereby improving the fluidity of the molasses while ensuring the quality of the molasses, and effectively avoiding the Maillard reaction of the molasses or the caramelization due to long-term high-temperature heating. Further, a jacket 16 is arranged on the periphery of the mixing tank 1, see Figure 1The jacket 16 is connected to the water storage tank 11. The hot water in the water storage tank 11 heated by the heating element 14 can also flow into the jacket 16. The jacket 16 provides a suitable temperature environment for the mixing tank 1, and the fluidity of the molasses is continuously stabilized during the mixing process. In some feasible implementations, the spraying mechanism 13 includes a drainage pipe 131 connected to the storage tank 2. The diluted molasses in the storage tank 2 flows into the drainage pipe 131. It is worth noting that the drainage pipe 131 is close to the jacket 16, and the heat of the hot water in the jacket 16 can avoid the drainage. The fluidity of the molasses in the tube 131 is reduced due to the decrease in temperature. The drainage tube 131 located on the top side of the jacket 16 is connected to the high-pressure shower head 133 through the branch pipe 132. The high-pressure shower head 133 is located inside the mixing tank 1. The molasses in the drainage tube 131 is evenly sprayed on the cow feed through the high-pressure shower head 133, stirred and mixed by the hollow stirring rod 8, and sprayed again. By repeatedly spraying a certain amount of molasses, the molasses and the feed can be evenly mixed, and the middle feed that cannot be sprayed can also be mixed with molasses through the molasses at the discharge port 9 of the hollow stirring rod 8.
[0024] Example 2
[0025] On the basis of Example 1, in order to ensure that the molasses in the storage tank 2 can be fully diluted and evenly, a spiral stirring rod 17 is provided in the storage tank 2, see Figure 1 The spiral stirring rod 17 is connected to a stepper motor 18. The stepper motor 18 is started to drive the spiral stirring rod 17 to rotate forward and backward to stir the molasses in the storage tank 2. On the one hand, the regular stirring and storage of molasses can maintain the fluidity of the molasses. On the other hand, when the water in the water storage tank 11 enters the storage tank 2 to dilute the molasses, the stirring of the spiral stirring rod 17 can speed up the mixing of water and molasses, thereby evenly diluting the molasses. Furthermore, in order to avoid the cooling of molasses during transportation, which may reduce the fluidity of molasses and affect the subsequent mixing effect, it should be noted that too high a proportion of molasses added may have a negative impact on the health and production performance of dairy cows. Therefore, the storage tank 2 includes a shell 200 and a housing 200 built in the shell 2. 00, a storage bin 210 inside, a weight sensor 220 is arranged at the bottom of the shell 200, and the storage bin 210 is located above the weight sensor 220. The weight sensor 220 can detect the weight change of molasses in the storage bin 210, so as to control the amount of molasses added to the mixing tank 1, so as to ensure that the amount of molasses added to the mixing tank 1 through the spraying mechanism 13 and the feed pipe 3 is appropriate, and avoid excessive addition of molasses causing negative effects. A heating layer 19 is arranged between the feed pipe 3 and the rotating shaft 6, and the heating layer 19 is fixed on the outer wall of the feed pipe 3. The heating layer 19 can assist in heating the molasses in the feed pipe 3 to ensure that the temperature of the molasses is continuously and stably at the temperature required for better fluidity.
[0026] In some preferred implementations, each hollow stirring rod 8 is provided with a hollow horizontal rod 20 connected to the hollow stirring rod 8, and the hollow horizontal rods 20 on adjacent hollow stirring rods 8 are staggered up and down. Figure 1 The feed in the horizontal direction can also be fully stirred through the hollow horizontal rods 20. Each hollow horizontal rod 20 is provided with holes. Figure 2 The molasses in the hollow stirring rod 8 enters the hollow horizontal rod 20 in the figure, and the molasses is mixed with the cow feed through the holes thereon during the horizontal stirring process of the hollow horizontal rod 20, which can further improve the uniformity of the mixing of the cow feed and the molasses in each area of the mixing tank 1. It should be noted that when the device needs to be cleaned, the hot water in the water storage tank 11 is sent into the storage tank 2, the feed pipe 3 and the drainage pipe 131, and then sprayed and flows into the storage tank 2 through the hollow stirring rod 8, the hollow horizontal rod 20 and the spraying mechanism 13, so as to achieve flushing and cleaning of the entire device.
[0027] The utility model uses a delivery pump 5 to deliver molasses in the storage tank 2 from the short tube 4 into the delivery pipe 3, and the rotating motor 7 drives the rotating shaft 6 to rotate. The rotating shaft 6 is evenly distributed with hollow stirring rods 8. The delivery pipe 3 is connected with the hollow stirring rod 8. When the hollow stirring rod 8 rotates with the rotating shaft 6 to stir the feed in the mixing tank 1, the molasses in the delivery pipe 3 enters the hollow stirring rod 8 and then flows out from the discharge port 9. During the stirring process, it is contacted and mixed with the feed, which can ensure that the feed located in the middle of the mixing tank 1 can also be fully mixed with the molasses, thereby improving the mixing uniformity of the cow feed and the molasses. The water in the water tank 11 dilutes the molasses in the storage tank 2, and the water ratio of the diluted molasses is controlled by the flow valve 12, which can improve the fluidity of the molasses while avoiding the influence of excessive water on the quality of the cow feed. The molasses can be evenly sprayed on the feed turned to the top side of the mixing tank 1 through the spraying mechanism 13. The spraying mechanism 13 cooperates with the hollow stirring rod 8 to ensure that the cow feed in the mixing tank 1 can be evenly and fully mixed with molasses, avoiding the situation that some feed is not mixed with molasses, while some feed is mixed with too much molasses, and the hollow stirring rod 8 mixes the molasses while stirring, which can effectively avoid agglomeration.
