By setting the cooling and dust removal mechanism 4, after the pet food is poured into the mesh cylinder 8 inside the cooling cylinder 1 through the feed valve 2 on the cooling cylinder 1, the air cooler 5 is started to supply air to the inside of the cooling cylinder 1 to cool the pet food, and then the motor 7 is started to drive the mesh cylinder 8 to rotate to make the pet food roll inside. Since the mesh cylinder 8 is hollow, the powder residue can be shaken off the pet food under the action of the rolling of the food and the blowing of the air cooler 5. During the cooling process, the vacuum cleaner 11 is started, and the vacuum cleaner 11 can absorb the shaken powder residue and filter it in the storage box 9 for isolation and collection, so that the surface of the pet food is no longer attached with powder residue after cooling, thereby improving the cooling effect and the quality of the food appearance.

[0026] A collecting hopper 12 is installed at the bottom of the storage box 9, a solenoid valve 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the collecting hopper 12, a collecting box 14 is arranged below the solenoid valve 13, and the shape of the collecting hopper 12 is set to be an isosceles trapezoid. A movable door 15 is movably installed at the top of the storage box 9, and a handle 16 is fixedly installed on the movable door 15. Through the setting of the collecting hopper 12, the solenoid valve 13 and the collecting box 14, the powder residue is filtered by the filter net 10 and falls into the collecting hopper 12 and accumulates. After opening the solenoid valve 13, the residue accumulated in the collecting hopper 12 can be discharged into the collecting box 14, so as to facilitate its cleaning. By setting the shape of the collecting hopper 12 to be an isosceles trapezoid, the powder residue is easier to slide down and be discharged.

Since the mesh cylinder 8 is hollow, the powder residue can be shaken off from the pet food under the action of the rolling of the food and the blowing of the air cooler 5. In the cooling process, the vacuum cleaner 11 is started, and the vacuum cleaner 11 can absorb the shaken powder residue and filter it in the storage box 9 for isolation and collection. After being filtered by the filter screen 10, the powder residue falls into the collecting hopper 12 and accumulates. After the solenoid valve 13 is opened, the residue accumulated in the collecting hopper 12 can be discharged into the collecting box 14. The hydraulic rod 19 is started to extend its output end to drive the cleaning brush 20 to descend, so that the cleaning brush 20 scrapes the surface of the filter screen 10 to remove the powder residue attached to the filter screen 10. After the pet food is cooled, the fixed rod 6 is operated to drive the mesh drum 8 to rotate so that its feed pipe is aligned downward with the discharge valve 3, and then the discharge valve 3 and the discharge pipe on the mesh drum 8 are opened to discharge the pet food outward.
