[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] To further understand the content of the present utility model, the present utility model will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Combined with Figure 1 and Figure 4, a mixing and stirring device for cat litter production of the present utility model includes a tank body 1. The output end of the second motor 10 is fixedly connected with a rotating rod 13. The outer circle of the rotating rod 13 is fixedly connected with evenly distributed stirring paddles 14. When the second motor 10 is started, the output end drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate counterclockwise, and the stirring paddles 14 rotate around the rotating rod 13 to mix and stir the cat litter. The top of the turntable 5 is fixedly connected with evenly distributed fixing blocks 6, and the height of the fixing blocks 6 is less than the distance from the bottom of the rotating rod 13 to the top of the turntable 5. When the fixing blocks 6 move along with the turntable 5, one side of the fixing blocks 6 pushes the cat litter at the bottom upward to turn it over, making the cat litter stirring more uniform and improving the stirring efficiency. The bottom of the front side of the outer side of the tank body 1 is rotatably connected with a rotating shaft 15. One side of the outer circle of the rotating shaft 15 is fixedly connected with a tank door 16. By opening the tank door 16, the cat litter can be quickly discharged from the tank body 1. The bottom of the front side of the outer side of the tank body 1 is fixedly connected with a feeding plate 17, and the feeding plate 17 is located below the tank door 16. The cat litter discharged through the tank door 16 is conveyed through the feeding plate 17 to the next process. The uppermost stirring paddle 14 on the rotating rod 13 is located below the tank body cover 11 to prevent the stirring paddle 14 from colliding with the inner side of the tank body cover 11 when rotating, causing device failures and component damages.

[0031] Combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 , four support rods 2 evenly distributed are fixedly connected to the middle positions around the outer side of the tank body 1. One end of the support rod 2 is connected to the ground, and the other end is connected to the outer side of the tank body 1. The bottom of the outer circle of the support rod 2 is fixedly connected with a platform 3. The support rod 2 supports the platform 3, and the top of the platform 3 supports the first motor 4. The first motor 4 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the top of the platform 3. The output end of the first motor 4 is fixedly connected with a turntable 5. When the first motor 4 is started, the output end drives the turntable 5 to rotate. Grooves are formed around the turntable 5 and are rotatably connected to the bottom of the tank body 1. The grooves around the turntable 5 rotate along the convex blocks at the bottom of the tank body 1. The platform 3 is located below the tank body 1. The first motor 4 is located between the platform 3 and the tank body 1.

[0032] Combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a hydraulic cylinder 7 is arranged on one side of the platform 3. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 7 is fixedly connected with a hydraulic rod 8. One end of the hydraulic rod 8 is fixedly connected with an L-shaped rod 9. One end of the L-shaped rod 9 is fixedly connected with a second motor 10. When the hydraulic cylinder 7 operates, it drives the second motor 10 and the tank body cover 11 to change height, facilitating feeding and stirring. The middle position of the outer side of the second motor 10 is fixedly connected with a tank body cover 11. The tank body cover 11 can prevent the cat litter from flying out of the tank body 1 during stirring, which is troublesome to clean and improves safety at the same time. A hole is formed in the left side of the top of the tank body cover 11 and is fixedly connected with a feeding pipe 12. During the operation of the device, feeding is carried out through the feeding pipe 12 to avoid direct pouring and improve safety during the working process.

[0033] Working principle: First, the hydraulic cylinder 7 operates. The telescopic movement of the hydraulic rod 8 drives the L-shaped rod 9 to move upward, thereby lifting the tank cover 11 and the stirring paddle 14. Subsequently, the raw materials for making cat litter are poured into the tank body 1. The hydraulic cylinder 7 operates again, and the L-shaped rod 9 descends until the tank cover 11 covers the top of the tank body 1. The first motor 4 is started, and its output end drives the turntable 5 to rotate clockwise. The fixed block 6 on the top of the turntable 5 drives the cat litter raw materials to start flipping. The second motor 10 is started, and its output end drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate counterclockwise, and the stirring paddle 14 starts to stir the cat litter. During the stirring process, substances such as glycerol and desiccant are added into the tank body 1 through the feed pipe 12 on the top of the tank cover 11. After the stirring is completed, the tank door 16 is opened, and the cat litter is discharged from the tank body 1 through the feeding plate 17.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
