[0002] Pets are creatures that people keep for spiritual purposes, rather than economic ones. Traditionally, pets are mammals or birds, kept for entertainment and companionship. During pet breeding, they need to be fed pet food, which is food specifically for pets and small animals. Pelletizers are often used in the production of pet food.

[0003] Chinese patent publication number CN221634971U describes a granulator for processing pet food. Granulated food falls into a first connecting box and then rolls into a collection box. This not only granulates two different-sized pet food particles simultaneously, improving the efficiency of the device, but also allows the two different-sized pet food particles to be collected separately, thereby increasing the practicality of the device.

[0004] The pet food processing granulator in the above-mentioned prior art needs to extrude the material in the granulator before the next batch of semi-finished pet food products can be loaded, resulting in low efficiency of pet food processing and failure to meet the needs of large-scale pet food production. Therefore, we propose a pet food granulator. Utility Model Content

[0024] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the utility model provides a pet food granulator, comprising a base 1, a feeding mechanism 3 is provided on the top of the base 1, a lower die base 5 for granulating pet food is provided above the base 1, an upper die base 6 matching the lower die base 5 is provided above the lower die base 5, and a support rod 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base 1;

[0026] The feeding mechanism 3 includes a servo motor 304, which is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. The servo motor 304 is fixedly connected to the gear 303 through the output shaft. The outer side of the lower die base 5 is fixedly connected to the gear ring 302. Four feeding grooves distributed in an annular shape are opened on the top of the lower die base 5. Two symmetrically distributed feeding tubes 308 are arranged above the lower die base 5. A cutting assembly 4 is arranged on the top of the base 1.

[0027] In a further embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 4 Two symmetrically distributed fixing rods 306 are fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, and the top of the two fixing rods 306 is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 307. The two fixing rods 306 provide fixed support for the top plate 307 to ensure the stability of the top plate 307 during use. The bottom of the top plate 307 is fixedly connected to a cylinder 309, and the telescopic end of the cylinder 309 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 311. The connecting plate 311 is used to connect the two upper mold bases 6. The two upper mold bases 6 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 311. The cylinder 309 can simultaneously push the two upper mold bases 6 downward through the connecting plate 311 to extrude the pet food into shape.

[0028] In this embodiment, the cylinder 309 can simultaneously push the two upper mold bases 6 downward through the connecting plate 311 to extrude the semi-finished pet food in the feeding trough so that it passes through the forming groove for molding. It can also cooperate with the rotation of the lower mold base 5 to alternately extrude and mold the semi-finished pet food in the four feeding troughs, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0029] In a further embodiment, referring to Figure 1-Figure 5 The outer side of the feeding tube 308 is fixedly connected to a fixing ring 310, and the fixing ring 310 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the top plate 307. The fixing ring 310 is used to connect the feeding tube 308 and the top plate 307, so that the feeding tube 308 can stably feed the feeding trough. The outer side of the fixing rod 306 is fixedly connected to a U-shaped limit block 305, and the outer side of the lower die base 5 is fixedly connected to a circular ring 301, which is slidably connected to the inner sides of the two U-shaped limit blocks 305. The U-shaped limit block 305 can limit the circular ring 301, and the circular ring 301 can slide in the two U-shaped limit blocks 305, so that the lower die base 5 can rotate, and the outer side of the gear 303 is meshed with the outer side of the ring gear 302. The rotation of the gear 303 can drive the lower die base 5 to rotate through the ring gear 302, and the bottom of the feeding trough is provided with forming holes distributed at equal intervals.

[0030] Furthermore, two groups of different forming holes can be provided at the bottom of the four feeding troughs, so that pet food particles of different shapes or diameters can be produced in conjunction with the upper die holder 6 .

[0031] In this embodiment, the servo motor 304 can drive the lower die base 5 to rotate through the gear 303 and the ring gear 302, thereby adjusting the position of the loading trough on the top of the lower die base 5. The four loading troughs can perform loading and granulation operations in pairs, which helps to improve the efficiency of granulation.

[0032] In a further embodiment, referring to Figure 3 The cutting assembly 4 includes a drive motor 403, which is fixedly connected to the top of the base 1. The drive motor 403 is fixedly connected to the transmission rod 402 through the output shaft. The cutting blade 401 is fixedly connected to the outside of the transmission rod 402. Two inclined guide plates 404 are fixedly connected to the top of the base 1.

[0033] In this embodiment, the driving motor 403 can drive the cutting blade 401 to rotate, alternately dicing the pet food discharged from the upper forming hole. The diced pet food particles enter the corresponding collection container through the two guide plates 404 for collection.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0035] Add semi-finished pet food to the feeding trough below through the two feeding pipes 308, and stop when the appropriate amount is added;

[0036] The servo motor 304 drives the gear 303 to rotate via the output shaft. The gear 303 rotates via the ring gear 302, driving the lower die base 5 to rotate, moving the loaded feeding chute to the bottom of the upper die base 6. At this time, the other two feeding chutes are located below the two feeding tubes 308.

[0037] The cylinder 309 is activated, and the cylinder 309 pushes the two upper mold bases 6 downward through the connecting plate 311. The upper mold base 6 moves downward to squeeze the semi-finished pet food in the feeding chute and form it through the forming hole;

[0038] The driving motor 403 drives the cutting blade 401 to rotate via the output shaft and the transmission rod 402, thereby dicing the pet food strips discharged from the forming hole. The diced pet food particles enter the container through the guide plate 404.

[0039] At the same time, when the pet food is granulated, the feeding pipe 308 adds the pet food to be granulated into the two empty feeding troughs, and moves to the bottom of the upper mold base 6 after the pet food in the other two feeding troughs is granulated, thereby performing alternating pet food feeding and granulation.

[0040] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
