Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, and in particular to a feed mixing device. Background Technology
[0002] Animal husbandry is the production sector that utilizes the physiological functions of domesticated animals such as livestock and poultry, or wild animals such as deer, musk deer, foxes, minks, otters, and quails, through artificial breeding and raising to convert plant energy from pasture and feed into animal energy, in order to obtain livestock products such as meat, eggs, milk, wool, cashmere, hides, silk, and medicinal materials. It is a crucial link in the exchange of materials between humans and nature. In livestock and poultry farming, feed mixing equipment is needed to grind and mix several feeds to form concentrated feed for direct feeding.
[0003] A search revealed a patent with publication number CN220900170U, which discloses a feed mixing device for livestock farms. This device achieves efficient and thorough mixing of feed, with a single drive that ensures dual mixing by both the mixing teeth and the spiral blades. This results in more thorough mixing of the feed, a shorter mixing process, and wider application in feed mixing.
[0004] The technical solution has the following problems:
[0005] Although it can mix the feed more thoroughly, some feed will remain in the mixing drum after mixing and discharge, which is not easy to clean and can easily lead to feed waste. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a feed mixing device.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A feed mixing device includes a base, two fixed plates fixedly connected to the top of the base, and a common mixing cylinder fixedly connected between the two fixed plates. Two feed hoppers are provided at the top of the mixing cylinder, and a drive motor is fixedly connected to the top of the mixing cylinder. A stirring shaft is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor, and stirring blades are fixedly connected to the stirring shaft. A discharge pipe with a discharge valve is provided at the bottom of the mixing cylinder, and a receiving cylinder is placed on the top of the base.
[0009] A cleaning mechanism is installed on the mixing drum to clean the mixing drum.
[0010] In one possible design, the cleaning mechanism includes a water tank, a water pump, and a spray pipe. The water tank and the water pump are both fixedly connected to the top of the mixing drum. The input end of the water pump extends into the water tank. The water tank is provided with an inlet pipe. The output end of the water pump is connected to the spray pipe. The spray pipe is fixed to the inner wall of the top of the mixing drum. The spray pipe is provided with multiple nozzles in a ring.
[0011] In one possible design, a first scraper is fixedly connected to the stirring blade, and a second scraper is fixedly connected to the first scraper. Both the first and second scrapers are in contact with the inner wall of the mixing cylinder.
[0012] In one possible design, an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the fixed plate, and a clamping plate adapted to the receiving cylinder is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod.
[0013] In one possible design, the receiving cylinder is equipped with a filter frame for filtration, and the receiving cylinder is equipped with a drain pipe with a drain valve.
[0014] In one possible design, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the filter frame, a fixing post is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate, and a fixing hole adapted to the fixing post is opened at the top of the receiving cylinder.
[0015] In this application, when in use, the feed to be mixed is first poured into the mixing drum from the two feed hoppers, and then the drive motor is started. The output shaft of the drive motor can make the stirring shaft, which in turn can make the stirring blades rotate to stir and mix the feed. Since the first scraper and the second scraper are provided, the feed adhering to the inner wall of the mixing drum can be scraped off.
[0016] After mixing, turn off the drive motor, then place the receiving cylinder below the mixing cylinder. Activate the two electric push rods to bring the two clamping plates closer together, clamping the receiving cylinder. Then open the discharge valve, and the mixed feed will fall into the receiving cylinder. After the feed is discharged, remove the feed from the receiving cylinder, then place the receiving cylinder below the mixing cylinder and fix the filter frame on it. Then, start the water pump, which will draw water from the water tank and spray it into the mixing cylinder through the spray pipe and nozzles to clean its interior. The remaining feed and water from the cleaning process enter the receiving cylinder, where the filter frame filters the feed. Excess water is discharged through the drain pipe on the receiving cylinder. This not only cleans the inside of the mixing cylinder but also allows for the recycling of residual feed, saving resources.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0018] 1. The first and second scrapers on the mixing blades are in close contact with the inner wall of the mixing drum, effectively scraping off feed residues and further improving the mixing efficiency and quality of the feed;
[0019] 2. The design of the cleaning mechanism makes cleaning the mixing drum simple and convenient. The water pump draws cleaning water from the water tank and sprays it into the mixing drum through multiple nozzles on the spray pipe to achieve a thorough cleaning of the mixing drum.
