Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pet food processing, in particular to an ingredient mixing device for food processing. Background Art
[0002] Pet food is divided into pet daily diet, daily diet companion, pet health food, pet snacks, prescription food, etc. It is food specially provided for pets and small animals. It is a high-end animal food between human food and traditional livestock and poultry feed. Its main function is to provide various pets with the most basic nutrients needed for life guarantee, growth and development, and health. Mixing devices are needed in the processing of pet food.
[0003] The existing horizontal mixer generally uses a mixing and stirring process of multiple raw materials and auxiliary materials. The horizontal mixer includes a support frame, a box body and a side flap rotatably connected to one side of the box body. A stirring assembly is arranged inside the box body. Before mixing the pet food materials, the side flap is opened first and then the materials are put into the box body in turn. After all the materials are put in, the side flap is immediately closed, and then the stirring assembly (the stirring assembly includes a driving motor, a rotating roller and a stirring rod) is opened for mixing and processing. However, the existing horizontal mixer generally has a single-axis stirring, which will cause the stirring direction of the raw materials to be single and not dispersed enough, and the stirring takes a long time, and the stirring efficiency needs to be further improved. At the same time, after the stirring is completed, the discharge channel at the bottom of the box body needs to be manually opened to realize the discharge. On the one hand, the existing discharge channel area is small, so the discharge is not thorough. On the other hand, manual intervention is required to realize the discharge, which is not convenient enough, and the discharge effect needs to be further improved. In summary, the existing horizontal mixer for pet food material processing has the above-mentioned problems in the mixing process and needs to be solved urgently. Utility Model Content

The utility model is further described in combination with the drawings and embodiments:
[0030] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a food processing food material mixing device comprises a support frame 1 and a stirring assembly 201, the support frame 1 is provided with a box body 2 with an open bottom, a side flap 3 is rotatably connected to the box body 2 (specifically, the box body 2 and the side flap 3 are fixed by a lock, which is not shown in the figure), and two groups of fixed plates 11 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the box body 2, one group of fixed plates 11 comprises two, a rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected between the fixed plates 11 of one group, a blocking plate 13 is arranged on the rotating shaft 12, and one end of one rotating shaft 12 is connected to a servo motor 14 fixedly arranged on one of the fixed plates 11, the two blocking plates 13 cooperate to automatically block or open the bottom of the box body 2 to realize temporary storage and discharge of materials, a stirring assembly 201 is arranged in the box body 2, two rotating rollers 31 are rotatably connected to the side flap 3 and a feeding hopper 41 connected to the inside of the box body 2 is fixed, the two rotating rollers 31 are provided with a plurality of transverse stirring rods 35 located on the inner side of the side flap 3, and the two rotating rollers 31 are driven by a driving assembly.
[0031] Specifically, the driving assembly includes a driving pulley 32, a driven pulley, a belt 33 and a driving motor 34. The two rotating rollers 31 are located in the area outside the side flip cover 3, and are respectively provided with a driving pulley 32 and a driven pulley at the same height (the driven pulley is not numbered in the figure). The driving pulley 32 and the driven pulley are driven by the belt 33, and the rotating roller 31 equipped with the driving pulley 32 is connected to the driving motor 34 fixed on the side flip cover 3.
[0032] Further refinement of the embodiment of the present utility model is as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the feed hopper 41 is provided with a flip cover 42, and the flip cover 42 is provided with a handle, which is shown without a number in the figure.
[0033] Further refinement of the embodiment of the present utility model is as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a vibration motor 5 is provided on the box body 2 and a collecting box is placed on the ground below the box body 2. The collecting box is shown as unnumbered in the figure. The vibration motor 5 can further improve the discharge effect of the material after mixing. The collecting box is used to collect and store the mixed material for the next step of transfer and processing.
[0034] It should be noted that the stirring assembly 201, the servo motor 14 and the drive motor 34 are all electrically connected to the controller, which is not shown in the figure.
[0035] The workflow of this utility model:
[0036] In the initial state, the two servo motors 14 synchronously drive the rotating shaft 12 to move, and then the rotating shaft 12 drives the two blocking plates 13 to move synchronously to block the bottom of the box body 2 to prevent the raw materials from flowing out directly. Then the staff will quantitatively add the raw materials and auxiliary materials required for pet food mixing into the box body 2 through the feed hopper 41. Compared with the existing adding process of opening and closing the side flip cover 3, this addition can reduce labor intensity. At the same time, with the help of the movable flip side cover 3, the box body 2 and the parts inside the side flip cover 3 can be inspected or maintained at any time. When no inspection is needed, it is fixed by a lock to prevent relative movement between the side flip cover 3 and the box body 2 during the mixing process.
[0037] When all the materials have been added, the entrance of the feed hopper 41 is immediately blocked with the flip cover 42, so that the materials can be prevented from flying out of the box body 2 from the feed hopper 41 during the subsequent mixing process.

Stirring in multiple directions can improve the mixing effect of the materials. At this time, it is no longer a single direction, so the mixing time is effectively shortened;
[0038] When all materials are fully mixed, the two servo motors 14 will reverse synchronously, and the two blocking plates 13 will move away from each other, and the bottom of the box 2 will be opened, so that the mixed materials stored in the box 2 can be discharged naturally. At this time, the discharge area is greatly increased and no manual intervention is required, and the labor intensity of discharge is significantly reduced;
[0039] Compared with the prior art, the mixing device in the present application is not a single-axis mixer, the stirring directions are increased and diversified, and the materials are more dispersed, the mixing effect of the pet food materials is improved and the time is shortened. In addition, after the stirring and mixing is completed, the materials can be automatically discharged and the discharge area is larger, so the discharge is more thorough and the degree of automation is improved.
[0040] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, a plurality of arc-shaped rods 21 are arranged on the stirring assembly 201. Specifically, the stirring assembly 201 includes a vertical stirring rod, on which the arc-shaped rod 21 is arranged. In this embodiment, a plurality of arc-shaped rods 21 are added to the vertical stirring rod of the stirring assembly 201 to further improve the mixing and stirring effect of the materials used in preparing pet food, and the mixing time is further shortened.
[0041] In other embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, a protective shell 36 is provided on the top of the side flip cover 3 to cover the outer side of the rotating roller 31, the driving pulley 32, the driven pulley and the belt 33, and a driving motor 34 is provided on the protective shell 36; this embodiment can make the device more beautiful through the protective shell 36, and at the same time protect the driving component and extend its service life.
