Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of feed processing equipment, in particular to a feed mixer. Background Art

[0002] Feed mixer is a common equipment in farms. It can evenly mix various feed raw materials (such as corn, soybean meal, bran, mineral additives, etc.) to ensure that the feed is rich in nutrients. Compared with manual mixing of feed, the working efficiency of feed mixer is much higher.

[0003] However, existing feed mixers are generally small in size, resulting in a small mixing volume and low mixing efficiency. Secondly, most existing feed mixers have a feed inlet located at the top of the mixer, and the feed inlet is small, which is inconvenient for feeding. For example, the poultry and livestock compound feed stirring and mixing device proposed in Chinese patent CN 220835120U, the horizontal mixer for beach sheep breeding proposed in Chinese patent CN 221359612 U, and the feed mixer for dairy farms proposed in Chinese patent CN 221580483 U are all of this type of structure.

[0004] In addition, some feeds require the addition of liquid additives, such as probiotic mixtures, during mixing. This requires the operator to add the probiotics to the molasses-diluted water, manually stir, and then introduce the appropriate amount of probiotic mixture into the mixer to mix with the feed ingredients, which is quite inconvenient for the operator. Therefore, there is a need to improve the existing technology. Utility Model Content

When it is necessary to prepare a mixing liquid, the amount of water to be introduced into the mixing barrel can be set by inputting the setting panel. After the water inlet valve is opened, the first flow meter starts to measure. When the amount of water flowing into the mixing barrel reaches the set value, the controller controls the water inlet valve to automatically close. The metering function of the first flow meter and the automatic start and stop function of the water inlet valve improve the accuracy of solution preparation. When it is necessary to deliver the mixing liquid to the mixing liquid delivery barrel, the amount of mixing liquid to be discharged from the mixing barrel can be set by inputting the setting panel. After the water outlet valve is opened, the second flow meter starts to measure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] 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.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a feed mixer comprises a crawler bucket mixer, a mixing liquid stirring device and a mixing liquid delivery bucket 19. Among them, the crawler bucket mixer is a commonly used equipment in the construction field, generally used for concrete mixing, and the utility model applies it to feed mixing.

[0033] The crawling bucket mixer includes a frame 1, a drum 2, a ramp track 3, a hopper 4, and a control box 6. The drum 2 is rotatably mounted on the frame 1, which is equipped with a drum drive motor for driving the drum 2 to rotate. The ramp track 3 is tilted on one side of the frame 1, and the hopper 4 is mounted on the ramp track 3. The ramp track 3 is equipped with a hopper drive motor for driving the hopper 4 up and down. A material guide trough 5 is tilted on the frame 1. The higher side of the material guide trough 5 is used to receive the discharge port of the hopper 4, and the lower side extends into the feed port of the drum 2. The control box 6 is mounted on the frame 1 and is connected to the drum drive motor and the hopper drive motor. The structure of the crawling bucket mixer is prior art, and its working principle will not be elaborated in detail here.

[0034] The mixing liquid stirring device includes a stirring barrel 7, a stirring shaft 15 and a stirring motor 17. The stirring barrel 7 is mounted on the frame 1 with its opening facing upward. Specifically, a fixed frame 8 is provided on the frame 1, and the stirring barrel 7 is installed in the fixed frame 8. The upper part of the stirring barrel 7 is provided with a water inlet pipe 9, and the water inlet pipe 9 is provided with a water inlet valve 10. Specifically, one side of the fixed frame 8 is detachably connected to the water inlet pipe 9 through a pipe clamp 11 to ensure the stability of the water inlet pipe 9. The lower part of the stirring barrel 7 is connected to the water outlet pipe 12, and the water outlet pipe 12 is provided with a water outlet valve 13, and the water outlet pipe 12 is connected to a hose 14. The stirring shaft 15 is vertically arranged, its lower end is located in the stirring barrel 7, and is provided with a plurality of stirring blades 16. The upper end of the stirring shaft 15 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. The stirring motor 17 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1 and is transmission-connected to the stirring shaft 15. The stirring motor 17 is electrically connected to the control box 6. In this embodiment, the stirring motor 17 is connected to the stirring shaft 15 through a belt assembly 18. When the stirring motor 17 is working, the belt assembly 18 drives the stirring shaft 15 and the stirring blade 16 to rotate, thereby achieving the stirring function.

[0035] The liquid feed bucket 19 is located at the top of the hopper 4, with its opening facing upward. A lid 20 is installed at the opening to prevent foreign matter from entering. The lid 20 can be perforated to prevent the liquid feed bucket 19 from becoming too tightly sealed and difficult to drain. A drain pipe 21 is connected to the bottom of the liquid feed bucket 19. This drain pipe 21 is equipped with a drain valve 22, a solenoid valve electrically connected to the control box 6. When the hopper 4 rises to the discharge point, the outlet of the drain pipe 21 is positioned vertically opposite the feed trough 5. When the drain valve 22 is opened, the liquid discharged from the drain pipe 21 enters the drum along with the feed ingredients transported by the feed trough 5 for thorough mixing. To connect the liquid feed bucket 19 to the liquid feed bucket, the end of the hose 14 of the liquid feed stirring device, away from the outlet pipe 12, is placed into the liquid feed bucket 19. The outlet valve 13 is then opened, and the prepared liquid in the mixing drum 7 flows into the liquid feed bucket 19.

[0036] The present invention utilizes a crawler bucket mixer, commonly used in the construction industry, to mix feed ingredients. Due to the generally larger size of crawler bucket mixers, this mixer can effectively increase the mixing volume, thereby improving mixing efficiency and making it suitable for mixing large quantities of feed ingredients. Furthermore, when loading the crawler bucket mixer, the hopper 4 is located within a ground recess, with the top approximately level with the ground, facilitating loading operations and providing significant convenience for the operator. Furthermore, the present invention includes a liquid mixing device and a liquid delivery barrel 19 on the crawler bucket mixer. The liquid mixing device is used to stir and mix the required liquid, while the liquid delivery barrel 19 is used to receive the prepared liquid. When the crawler bucket mixer hopper 4 is unloaded, the liquid is discharged and, along with the feed ingredients, enters the drum 2 through the feed guide trough 5 for thorough mixing, ensuring uniform mixing of the liquid and the feed ingredients. Furthermore, the liquid mixing device replaces manual stirring of the liquid, and the liquid delivery barrel 19 replaces manual delivery of the liquid to the mixer, effectively reducing the operator's workload and improving work efficiency.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Based on Example 1, this embodiment includes a control box 6 equipped with a controller and a setup panel (not shown). The setup panel, the drum drive motor, the hopper drive motor, the stirring motor 17, and the drain valve 22 are all electrically connected to the controller. The ramp track 3 is equipped with a sensor (not shown) for detecting whether the hopper 4 has risen to the discharge point. The sensor is electrically connected to the controller. The sensor is a through-beam infrared sensor. When the hopper 4 rises and blocks the through-beam infrared sensor's signal, the discharge point has been reached.

[0039] The utility model is provided with a sensor for detecting whether the hopper 4 rises to the unloading point. When the sensor senses that the hopper 4 rises to the unloading point, after a set time delay, the controller controls the drain valve 22 of the prepared liquid delivery barrel 19 to automatically open, thereby automatically draining the prepared liquid and avoiding the inconvenience caused by manual operation.

[0040] Example 3

[0041] Based on Example 2, this embodiment further includes a first flow meter and a second flow meter (not shown) installed on the water inlet pipe 9 and the water outlet pipe 12 of the mixing barrel 7, respectively. The water inlet valve 10 and the water outlet valve 13 are both solenoid valves. The first flow meter, the second flow meter, the water inlet valve 10, and the water outlet valve 13 are all connected to a controller. In this embodiment, the controller is a PLC.

[0042] The first flowmeter and the second flowmeter are used to monitor the water inflow and outflow of the mixing barrel 7, respectively. When a mixed liquid needs to be prepared, the amount of water to be introduced into the mixing barrel 7 can be set by inputting the settings on the panel. After the water inlet valve 10 is opened, the first flowmeter starts metering. When the amount of water flowing into the mixing barrel 7 reaches the set value, the controller controls the water inlet valve 10 to automatically close. The metering function of the first flowmeter and the automatic start and stop function of the water inlet valve 10 improve the accuracy of solution preparation. When a mixed liquid needs to be delivered to the mixed liquid delivery barrel 19, the amount of mixed liquid to be discharged from the mixing barrel 7 can be set by inputting the settings on the panel. After the water outlet valve 13 is opened, the second flowmeter starts metering. When the amount of water flowing out of the mixing barrel 7 reaches the set value, the controller controls the water outlet valve 13 to automatically close. The metering function of the second flowmeter and the automatic start and stop function of the water outlet valve 13 improve the accuracy of mixed liquid delivery.

[0043] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present invention. All equivalent changes or modifications completed under the technical spirit suggested by the present invention should fall within the patent scope covered by the present invention.
