Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cat food screening technology, specifically a powder and residue separation device for cat food. Background Technology
[0002] Cat food is food specifically designed for cats. It contains various nutrients that cats need for their daily activities, such as protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, and water. Cat food comes in various forms, commonly including dry cat food, wet cat food, and canned cat food.
[0003] Common dry cat food is in pellet form. During processing, it is inevitable that some pellets will break, resulting in dust and powder mixed in with the cat food. To improve the quality of cat food production, it is often necessary to remove the dust and powder. However, common sieve screening generates a lot of dust during the shaking process, which can pollute the working environment. Furthermore, screening needs to be done in batches, with the steps of feeding, screening, and unloading before feeding the next batch. This makes continuous operation difficult and reduces work efficiency. Utility Model Content

The collection frame is fixed to the upper end of the base. Vibration springs are fixed to the four corners of the upper end of the collection frame. The upper ends of the vibration springs are fixed to the four corners of the bottom of the screening frame. A screening cavity is provided inside the screening frame. A bottom groove is opened in the middle of the bottom of the screening cavity. A screen is fixed in the bottom groove. A pair of vibration motors are fixed to the outer wall of the screening frame. A dust suction port is opened above the side wall of the screening cavity. A vacuum cleaner is fixed to the outer side of the upper end of the base. A collection cover is fixed to the outer side of the screening frame and aligned with the dust suction port. The collection cover and the vacuum cleaner are connected by a connecting hose.

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Please see Figure 1-3This utility model provides a technical solution: including a base 1, a collection frame 2, and a screening frame 3. The collection frame 2 is fixed to the upper end of the base 1. Vibration springs 4 are fixed to the four corners of the upper end of the collection frame 2. The upper ends of the vibration springs 4 are fixed to the four corners of the bottom of the screening frame 3. A screening cavity 31 is provided inside the screening frame 3. A bottom groove 35 is opened in the middle of the bottom of the screening cavity 31. A screen 36 is fixed inside the bottom groove 35. A pair of vibration motors 37 are fixed to the outer wall of the screening frame 3. A dust suction port 8 is opened above the side wall of the screening cavity 31. A vacuum cleaner 11 is fixed to the outer side of the upper end of the base 1. A collection cover 81 is fixed to the outer side of the screening frame 3 and aligned with the dust suction port 8. The collection cover 81 and the vacuum cleaner 11 are connected by a connecting hose 82. A bottom plate 5 is fixed to the bottom side wall of the base 1. A storage frame 6 is provided on the bottom plate 5. A guide plate 7 is fixed to the side wall of the collection frame 2 and above the storage frame 6.
[0018] The upper end of the collection frame 2 is provided with a collection port 22. The bottom of the screening frame 3 is fixed with a funnel 9 aligned with the bottom groove 35. The bottom of the funnel 9 is inserted into the collection port 22. An elastic ring 23 is fixed to the side wall of the collection port 22. A collection drawer 21 is slidably connected inside the collection frame 2.
[0019] A glass cover plate 34 is fixed to the upper opening of the screening frame 3. A feeding groove 32 is provided on the glass cover plate 34. A feeding hopper 33 is fixed on the glass cover plate 34 and at the corresponding position of the feeding groove 32. The bottom of the screening chamber 31 has a sloping structure and is inclined to the side away from the feeding hopper 33. Limiting rods 41 are fixed at the four corners of the bottom of the screening frame 3. The limiting rods 41 are located inside the vibration spring 4 and are slidably connected to the side wall of the collection frame 2 at the bottom.
[0020] Working principle: First, connect the entire device to an external power source. Then, pour cat food into the feed hopper 33, allowing it to enter the screening chamber 31. At this time, the vibration motor 37 drives the screening frame 3 to vibrate continuously. Simultaneously, because the bottom of the screening chamber 31 is tilted towards the opening, the cat food particles pass through the screen 36 and flow out from the end opening. In this process, the screen 36 can screen out broken cat food particles and powder, which enter the collection frame 2 through the funnel 9. The particles that meet the requirements are guided by the guide plate 7 and stored in the storage frame 6 after falling. The screening process only requires continuously adding cat food raw materials to the feed hopper 33, which improves work efficiency. Furthermore, the glass cover 34 can prevent the dust from overflowing during vibration screening, and the vacuum cleaner 11 can absorb the dust in the screening chamber 31, which can reduce the impact of dust on the working environment.
