Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of feed processing equipment, in particular to a mixing device for preparing feed based on solid trace elements. Background Art
[0002] In the field of laying hen feed processing, solid trace elements and Chinese herbal fermentation products are widely used. As key additives, they can significantly improve laying performance, eggshell quality, and immunity of laying hens. Solid trace elements occupy an important position in the modern feed industry due to their high stability and ease of storage and transportation. Chinese herbal fermentation products, on the other hand, have become an important raw material for improving feed quality due to their diverse functional ingredients and strong activity. However, how to achieve efficient, uniform, and lossless mixing of solid trace elements and Chinese herbal fermentation products during the mixing process, and adapt them to the integration requirements of fully automated production lines, remains an area where current technology urgently needs to be optimized.
[0003] A search revealed a "premix feed processing technology" with publication number CN105639696B, published on August 28, 2018. This technology utilizes a vertically arranged process equipment structure, with raw materials fed into a batching bin via a mobile, clean-up feeding vehicle. These materials are then transported to a batching scale via a tubular screw conveyor. Trace elements are manually fed directly into a mixer using an electronic micro-batch scale for mixing. While this solution improves weighing accuracy and reduces cross-contamination to a certain extent, it still has limitations. First, trace elements rely on manual batching, making batch-to-batch consistency difficult to ensure and potentially introducing human error, making it difficult to meet the requirements of fully automated continuous production. Second, the physical properties of solid trace elements (such as particle size and poor fluidity) are not specifically addressed, resulting in agglomeration or stratification during the mixing process, affecting the final mixing uniformity. Third, the system lacks compatibility with special functional ingredients, such as fermented Chinese herbal medicines, making it difficult to ensure the integrity and dispersion of active substances during the mixing process.
[0004] Another patent application, entitled "Feed-Grade Ferrous Sulfate Monohydrate Coating Method," with publication number CN101589764B, was published on September 28, 2011. This technology utilizes a double-layer coating of ferrous sulfate monohydrate to enhance its stability in composite premixes and reduce damage to sensitive ingredients such as vitamins A and C. While this method effectively improves the chemical stability of trace elements, its focus is on material modification rather than the mixing equipment itself, failing to address the practical challenges of dispersing solid trace elements within the mixing equipment. Specifically, this technology relies on an external coating process, which increases the complexity of the pretreatment process and hinders seamless integration with existing fully automated feed production lines. Second, it lacks a dedicated mixing device tailored to the properties of the coated particles. Conventional mixing equipment can still damage the coating, reducing sustained-release efficacy and bioavailability. Third, it lacks a design for synergistic mixing pathways for multiple functional additives (such as fermented herbal medicines), making it difficult to achieve synergistic effects among the components.
[0005] After searching, although CN217058247U discloses a double-layer stirring and airflow device, it is only suitable for drying scenarios. It does not solve the agglomeration problem of solid trace elements due to fine particles and poor fluidity, nor does it design a protection mechanism for the active ingredients of Chinese herbal medicines. The double-layer stirring structure disclosed by it cannot adapt to the uniformity requirements of functional feed (CV>10%).
[0006] The above-mentioned existing technologies demonstrate that current research on the application of trace elements in feed primarily focuses on raw material improvement or process optimization, while there remains a significant gap in specialized mixing equipment for preparing feed based on solid trace elements. In particular, in the fully automated production of laying hen feed, existing equipment generally suffers from low automation levels, insufficient mixing uniformity, poor compatibility with functional raw materials, and the potential loss of active ingredients. This makes it difficult to meet the efficient and stable production requirements of high-quality laying hen feed, particularly those requiring functional benefits such as improved eggshell gloss, enhanced immunity, and extended shelf life.

[0031] The utility model provides a mixing device for preparing feed based on solid trace elements, the overall structure of which is as follows Figure 1 As shown, it includes a mixing chamber 1, a double-layer stirring assembly 2, an automatic feeding system 3, an air flow homogenizing device 4 and a discharging mechanism 5. These components achieve efficient mixing of solid trace elements and Chinese herbal medicine fermentation products through reasonable layout and connection.
[0032] The mixing chamber 1 is the core part of the equipment. Its internal space is used to accommodate the materials to be mixed. The external contour is designed as a vertical cylindrical structure. There is an observation window 16 on the top and a conical structure at the bottom. The cone angle is 60° to 75°. Figure 5 As shown in the figure, multiple guide plates 15 are arranged on the inner wall of the conical structure. These guide plates 15 are arranged in a spiral pattern along the conical surface, guiding the material flow toward the center and ultimately converging it to the location of the screw conveyor 13. The inner wall of the mixing chamber 1 is coated with a polytetrafluoroethylene anti-stick coating to reduce material adhesion during the mixing process. The top of the mixing chamber 1 is connected to the automatic feeding system 3, and the bottom is equipped with an airflow homogenizer 4 and a discharge mechanism 5.
[0033] The double-layer stirring assembly 2 is installed inside the mixing chamber 1, and its main shaft passes through the upper and lower ends of the mixing chamber 1 and is fixed by bearing supports. The first stirring blade group 6 and the second stirring blade group 7 are arranged on the main shaft, and the two groups of stirring blades are staggered along the axial direction of the main shaft. The first stirring blade group 6 is located in the upper part of the mixing chamber 1, and adopts an inclined blade structure with an inclination angle of 30° to 45°, which is used to push the material upward along the inner wall of the chamber; the second stirring blade group 7 is located in the lower part of the mixing chamber 1, and adopts an upright blade structure. Its blade width is greater than the blade width of the first stirring blade group 6, which is used to enhance the shearing effect of the material in the lower part. The first stirring blade group 6 and the second stirring blade group 7 are connected by a spacer disk. The diameter of the spacer disk is smaller than the inner diameter of the mixing chamber 1, thereby forming a material flow gap to ensure that the material can be smoothly exchanged between different layers.
[0034] Automatic feeding system 3 Figure 3As shown, it includes a storage bin 8, a metering device 9 and a delivery pump 10. The storage bin 8 is divided into a first storage bin and a second storage bin, which are respectively used to store solid trace elements and Chinese herbal fermentation products. A metering device 9 is provided at the outlet of the storage bin 8 for accurately controlling the amount of each raw material added. The delivery pump 10 is connected to the outlet end of the storage bin 8 through a flexible pipe, and the end of the flexible pipe is connected to a branch pipe, and the branch pipe extends to the inner cavity of the mixing chamber 1. There are two branch pipes, which are respectively connected to the upper and middle parts of the mixing chamber 1. A flow control valve is provided in the branch pipe to adjust the speed and flow of the material entering the mixing chamber 1.
[0035] Air flow homogenization device 4 such as Figure 4 As shown, it includes an annular air duct 11 and a nozzle 12. The annular air duct 11 is arranged around the bottom outer wall of the mixing chamber 1 and is connected to the external air source through an air inlet pipe. A pressure regulating valve and a flow meter are provided on the air inlet pipe to adjust the pressure and flow of the gas. The annular air duct 11 is connected to a plurality of nozzles 12, and the nozzles 12 are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the mixing chamber 1, with a number of 8 to 12. The outlet direction of each nozzle 12 is toward the central axis of the mixing chamber 1, and the outlet end of the nozzle 12 has a diffusion structure to increase the gas coverage range. The airflow homogenization device 4 assists the dispersion and uniform distribution of materials through gas flow, and is particularly suitable for processing materials with finer particles or easy to agglomerate.
[0036] Discharging mechanism 5 Figure 2 As shown, it includes a screw conveyor 13 and a discharge port 14. The screw conveyor 13 is arranged at the bottom center of the mixing chamber 1, and its pitch gradually decreases from the center to the outside to achieve gradual compaction of the material during the conveying process. The discharge port 14 is located on one side of the screw conveyor 13 and is connected to the external storage bin. The opening area of the discharge port 14 can be adjusted by adjusting the baffle. The baffle is connected to the outer wall of the mixing chamber 1 through a slide rail. A positioning pin is provided on the slide rail for fixing the position of the baffle. The discharging mechanism 5 stably discharges the mixed material through the screw conveyor 13, and at the same time, the design of the discharge port 14 realizes flexible control of the discharge speed.
[0037] The control system 17 is electrically connected to the automatic feeding system 3, the double-layer stirring assembly 2, the airflow homogenizing device 4 and the discharge mechanism 5, and is used to coordinate the working status of each component. The control system 17 has a built-in preset program, which can automatically adjust the operating parameters of each component according to different feed formulas. For example, after starting the equipment, the control system 17 first controls the metering device 9 to start according to the set feeding ratio, and respectively delivers the solid trace elements and Chinese herbal fermentation products into the designated area of the mixing chamber 1 through the delivery pump 10. Subsequently, the double-layer stirring assembly 2 starts to operate, and the first stirring blade group 6 and the second stirring blade group 7 work together to stir the material in layers. During this process, the airflow homogenizing device 4 injects gas into the mixing chamber 1 through the nozzle 12 to further improve the uniformity of the material. When the mixing is completed, the control system 17 controls the discharge mechanism 5 to start, and the screw conveyor 13 pushes the material to the discharge port 14 and discharges it.
[0038] The specific operating principle of the entire mixing process is as follows: After starting the equipment, the solid trace elements and Chinese herbal fermentation products in the storage bin 8 are accurately weighed by the metering device 9, and are respectively delivered to the upper and middle areas of the mixing chamber 1 through the delivery pump 10 and the branch pipe. At this time, the double-layer stirring assembly 2 starts to operate, the first stirring blade group 6 pushes the upper material upward along the inner wall of the chamber, and the second stirring blade group 7 applies shear force to the lower material, so that the material forms a circulating flow in the mixing chamber 1. At the same time, the air flow homogenization device 4 injects gas into the mixing chamber 1 through the nozzle 12, and the gas flow drives the material to further disperse, solving the problem that traditional mechanical stirring is difficult to completely eliminate material agglomeration. When the mixing time reaches the preset value, the control system 17 stops stirring and starts the discharging mechanism 5, and the screw conveyor 13 pushes the mixed material to the discharge port 14, and finally discharges it to the external storage bin.
[0039] Through the above-mentioned structural design and operation process, the mixing equipment of the utility model can achieve efficient and uniform mixing of solid trace elements and Chinese herbal medicine fermentation products, while reducing manual intervention, improving automation integration, and meeting the needs of high-quality feed production.
[0040] In order to better enable relevant personnel in this technical field to fully understand and implement the present invention, the implementation principle of the present invention is supplemented below in combination with specific application scenarios.
[0041] First, the automatic feeding system 3 is started, and the solid trace elements and Chinese herbal fermentation products in the storage bin 8 are accurately weighed by the metering device 9. The metering device 9 opens the outlet valves of the first storage bin and the second storage bin according to the feed formula ratio preset by the control system 17, and delivers the materials to the delivery pump 10. The delivery pump 10 pushes the materials to the branch pipe through a flexible pipe. The flow control valve in the branch pipe adjusts the speed and flow of the materials entering the mixing chamber 1 to ensure that the solid trace elements and Chinese herbal fermentation products enter from the upper and middle areas of the mixing chamber 1 respectively. This process utilizes the connection design between the branch pipe and the inner cavity of the mixing chamber 1 to achieve zoned feeding, avoiding premature mixing or agglomeration of the raw materials before entering the mixing chamber 1.
[0042] Subsequently, the double-layer stirring assembly 2 starts to operate, and the main shaft drives the first stirring blade group 6 and the second stirring blade group 7 to work together. The inclined blade structure of the first stirring blade group 6 pushes the material upward along the inner wall of the mixing chamber 1 at an angle of 30° to 45°, forming an upward circulation flow of the material; while the upright blade structure of the second stirring blade group 7 applies shear force to the lower material, enhancing the dispersion effect of the material at the bottom. The material flow gap formed by the spacer disk between the first stirring blade group 6 and the second stirring blade group 7 enables the material to be smoothly exchanged between different layers, thereby achieving uniform distribution of the upper and lower layers of material. During this process, the anti-stick coating on the inner wall of the mixing chamber 1 effectively reduces material adhesion and ensures mixing efficiency.
[0043] Simultaneously, the airflow homogenizer 4 injects gas into the nozzle 12 through the annular air passage 11. The gas diffuses through the nozzle 12, evenly covering the interior of the mixing chamber 1. The gas flow further disperses the material, especially for solid trace elements with fine particles or those prone to agglomeration. The airflow significantly reduces agglomeration and improves mixing uniformity. The design of the nozzle 12, oriented toward the central axis of the mixing chamber 1, ensures that the gas is evenly applied to the material, while the diffusion structure expands the gas coverage area, further optimizing the dispersion effect.
[0044] When the mixing time reaches the preset value of the control system 17, the double-layer mixing assembly 2 stops and the discharge mechanism 5 starts. The screw conveyor 13 gradually pushes the mixed material from the bottom center of the mixing chamber 1 to the discharge port 14. The pitch of the screw conveyor 13 gradually decreases from the center outward, so that the material is gradually compacted during transportation and prevents blockage during discharge. The baffle of the discharge port 14 adjusts the opening area through the slide rail, and the positioning pin fixes the baffle position, thereby flexibly controlling the discharge speed and ensuring that the mixed feed can be discharged stably to the external storage bin.
[0045] The conical structure at the bottom of the mixing chamber 1 and the spiral guide plates 15 on its inner wall play a key role in the mixing process. The 60° to 75° taper encourages material to converge toward the center, while the spiral arrangement of the guide plates 15 along the conical surface guides the material downward, ultimately converging at the location of the screw conveyor 13. This structural design not only improves material flowability but also reduces the amount of residue at the bottom of the mixing chamber 1, enhancing the cleanliness and efficiency of the equipment.
[0046] Through the aforementioned steps and the coordinated operation of various components, the mixing equipment of this utility model achieves efficient and uniform mixing of solid trace elements and fermented products of Chinese herbal medicines. The equipment demonstrates excellent compatibility and stability on a fully automated production line, meeting the demands of high-quality laying hen feed production while significantly reducing manual intervention and material loss.
