A pressure sensor 10318 is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the receiving groove 10312 and at a position corresponding to the abutment block 10317.
[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a drive assembly 1032 for driving the feed weighing assembly 1031 is installed on the side of the feed pipe 103 and at the position corresponding to the feed weighing assembly 1031.
[0038] The drive assembly 1032 includes a drive frame 10321 fixedly connected to the side of the feed pipe 103, a servo motor 10322 fixedly connected to the drive frame 10321, a drive shaft 10323 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the servo motor 10322, and the side of the drive shaft 10323 near the sealing rotating plate 10311 is fixedly connected to the side of the sealing rotating plate 10311.
[0039] The pressure sensor 10318 is connected to an external PLC controller, and the PLC controller is electrically connected to the servo motor 10322.
