[0002] The feed for ruminants such as cattle and sheep is usually divided into two categories: roughage and concentrate. Roughage mainly includes various types of green feed (such as grass, silage, green dry material), hay, straw, etc. These feeds are rich in cellulose, which can promote the rumination function of ruminants and help maintain the health of their gastrointestinal tract. Concentrated feed mainly includes grains, soybean meal, feed additives, etc. These feeds are rich in protein, carbohydrates and various nutrients, which can provide the energy and nutrients required by ruminants. In order to improve the economic benefits of animal husbandry, it is necessary to process the forage materials, that is, to effectively mix roughage such as forage and straw, concentrate feed, water and other minerals, vitamins and other additives through a feed mixer to obtain a mixed diet to better meet the nutritional needs of livestock. The mixed diet mixed by the feed mixer is conveyed to the spreader by a conveyor, and then transported to the cage by the spreader. The structure of the existing feed conveyor includes an inclined or horizontally arranged bracket, on which a drive roller, a belt roller and a tail roller are installed. The belt reciprocates under the drive of the drive roller to transport materials. Since some metal impurities are easily mixed into roughage during harvesting and transportation, if mixed into the diet and fed to cattle and sheep, it may harm their health.
