Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of silos, in particular to a pig feed storage silo. Background Art

[0002] In the livestock industry, the storage and management of pig feed is a key factor affecting feed quality, breeding efficiency, and economic benefits. Traditional pig feed storage methods often utilize simple silo structures. However, these traditional silos present a series of problems during feed storage that need to be addressed. First, feed is easily exposed to moisture during storage, causing it to mold and spoil. This not only reduces its nutritional value but also poses a threat to pig health. Furthermore, accumulated moisture and odors within the silo are difficult to effectively remove, further exacerbating the decline in feed quality. Second, prolonged storage of feed in the silo tends to cause clumping, which not only affects feed uniformity and flowability but also can lead to feed waste and silo blockage. Traditional silo designs lack effective mixing and scraping mechanisms, making it difficult to address feed clumping. Furthermore, traditional silos present numerous operational inconveniences, such as cumbersome feed loading and unloading operations and a lack of safe access for workers entering and exiting the silo. These issues not only reduce work efficiency but also pose a threat to worker safety. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a pig feed storage silo to more accurately solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a pig feed storage silo with the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This pig feed storage silo, through its integrated design of an exhaust unit, filter plates, agitators, and scrapers, effectively solves problems that can easily arise during feed storage, such as moisture accumulation, odor emission, and feed clumping. The exhaust unit continuously extracts moisture and odors from the cylinder, keeping the feed dry and fresh; the filter plates prevent feed particles from being accidentally inhaled into the exhaust system. At the same time, the coordinated work of the agitator and scraper not only ensures uniform mixing of the feed and prevents localized clumping, but also effectively scrapes away adhering feed residues by tightly adhering to the inner wall of the cylinder through the scraper plate, avoiding feed waste and cylinder contamination. This series of designs works together to significantly improve the storage quality and utilization rate of the feed, extending the shelf life of the feed.

[0013] This pig feed storage silo features a structural design that fully considers ease of operation and safe maintenance. The strategically placed feed and discharge pipes facilitate quick and easy feed addition and removal, improving work efficiency. The brackets and ladder provide stable support and convenient access for workers to ascend and descend, ensuring safe operation. Furthermore, the modular design of the agitator motor and scraper facilitates routine inspection, maintenance, and replacement, reducing maintenance costs and improving overall equipment reliability. These design details not only enhance operational convenience but also provide strong support for the long-term, stable operation of the equipment. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] In order to more clearly and completely illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Example

[0020] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a pig feed storage silo proposed in one embodiment of the utility model is mainly composed of a cylinder 1. The cylinder 1 serves as a storage container for feed, and its internal structure design fully considers the efficiency of feed preservation and retrieval. On the inner top wall of the cylinder 1, we installed an exhaust part 2, which is used to extract moisture and odor in the cylinder to keep the feed dry and fresh. Next, on the inner wall of the cylinder 1, we installed a filter plate 5, which is located at the bottom of the exhaust part 2. Its main function is to prevent feed particles from being sucked into the exhaust part 2, while allowing gas to pass through. Below the filter plate 5, we set a stirring member 6 for regularly stirring the feed to prevent it from agglomerating. More importantly, the bottom of the stirring member 6 is connected to the scraper 7, which consists of a connecting rod 71 and a scraper plate 72. The scraper plate 72 is in close contact with the inner wall of the cylinder 1, and can effectively scrape off attachments on the inner wall of the cylinder while stirring, such as lumps of feed or dust, to ensure the cleanliness of the inner wall of the cylinder and the uniform distribution of the feed. Through this design, the pig feed storage silo can not only effectively keep the feed dry and fresh, but also prevent the feed from clumping, thereby improving the utilization rate of the feed.

[0021] In the present invention, the stirring element 6 is designed with a stirring motor 61 as the power source, the output end of which is connected to a stirring rod 62. Multiple stirring blades 63 are evenly distributed on the surface of the stirring rod 62. These blades rotate under the drive of the stirring motor 61, thereby achieving uniform stirring of the feed. In addition, the bottom of the stirring rod 62 is connected to the scraper 7 via a connecting rod 71, allowing the stirring and scraping actions to be performed simultaneously, greatly improving work efficiency. The combination of the stirring motor 61 and the stirring blades 63 ensures uniform stirring of the feed, while the addition of the connecting rod 71 and the scraper 7 makes cleaning the inner wall of the cylinder easier and more efficient.

[0022] In this utility model, to facilitate the addition and removal of feed, a feed pipe 11 is installed on the side of the cylinder 1 and at the bottom of the filter plate 5, while a discharge pipe 12 is installed at the bottom of the cylinder 1. A valve is provided on the discharge pipe 12 to conveniently control the discharge of feed. The design of the feed pipe 11 and the discharge pipe 12 makes the addition and removal of feed more convenient, and the provision of the valve provides additional safety and flexibility.

[0023] In the present invention, the specific structure of the air extraction unit 2 includes an extraction pipe 21 installed at the top of the cylinder 1. The bottom of the extraction pipe 21 is connected to the diverter pipe 22, and a plurality of air extraction heads 23 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the diverter pipe 22. In this way, the air extraction unit 2 can more evenly extract moisture and odors from the cylinder. Through the combination of the extraction pipe 21, the diverter pipe 22, and the air extraction heads 23, the air extraction unit 2 can efficiently extract moisture and odors from the cylinder, keeping the feed dry and fresh.

[0024] In this utility model, to ensure the stability and safety of cylinder 1, a bracket 3 is installed at its bottom. Bracket 3 not only provides stable support but also facilitates maintenance and inspection of cylinder 1. In addition, to facilitate the operation of personnel up and down, a ladder 4 is installed on one side of bracket 3. The design of bracket 3 and ladder 4 ensures the stability of cylinder 1 and the safety of personnel.

[0025] In this utility model, the scraper 7 is designed with a combination of multiple connecting rods 71 ​​and scraper plates 72 to ensure comprehensive cleaning of the inner wall of the cylinder. Furthermore, the scraper plates 72 are made of ceramic, which is not only wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant, but also easy to clean and maintain. Through the combination of multiple connecting rods 71 ​​and ceramic scraper plates 72, the scraper 7 can efficiently and comprehensively clean the inner wall of the cylinder, ensuring the quality of the feed and the cleanliness of the cylinder.
