Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of feed moisture content detection technology, specifically a feed moisture content detection device. Background Technology
[0002] Feed refers to substances that provide nutrition and energy to animals. It is mainly used for artificially raised animals such as pigs, chickens, cattle, and sheep. It is the material basis for the development of animal husbandry and also constitutes a major part of the cost of breeding and production.
[0003] During the production and processing of feed, it is necessary to test its moisture content to ensure the quality of the finished feed. Existing testing methods typically include oven drying, moisture analyzers, and filter paper methods. Through long-term observation, it has been found that the oven drying method usually involves taking a certain amount of sample, placing it in a container, measuring and recording the sample mass, drying the sample in an oven, and then measuring the mass again. The moisture content of the feed is calculated by the difference in mass before and after drying. However, in the current drying process, the feed is usually piled up and not moving in the container, resulting in a slower drying speed for the lower and inner layers of feed, thus causing a long drying time.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a feed moisture content detection device. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and solve at least one of the problems mentioned in the background technology, a feed moisture content detection device is proposed.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: The feed moisture content detection device of this utility model includes a drying oven. Two sets of fixed columns are fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side wall of the drying oven. A placement plate is slidably connected to the middle of the fixed columns. A pair of inclined plates are symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the placement plate. A fixed box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner side wall of the drying oven. A motor is installed in the fixed box. A turntable is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A top rod is fixedly connected to the top of the turntable. A feeding tray is placed on the top of the placement plate. A weighing scale is installed on the side wall of the drying oven. A door is installed on the side wall of the drying oven. Through the above structure, the motor is connected to the turntable and the top rod. With the placement plate, inclined plates and feeding tray, the feed inside the feeding tray can be continuously turned over during the drying process. This reduces the situation where the feed piles up together, causing the inner or bottom layer of feed to dry slowly and resulting in a long drying time.
[0007] Preferably, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the middle of each group of fixing columns, and a buffer spring is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing plate. The buffer spring is sleeved in the middle of the fixing column, and a crusher is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing plate. With the above structure, the fixing plate, buffer spring and crusher can cause the feed in the feeding tray to vibrate multiple times when the feeding plate falls due to the multiple contraction and rebound of the buffer spring. This can improve the turning effect of the feed and reduce the impact force between the feeding plate and the top rod, so as to reduce the damage caused by the impact.
[0008] Preferably, a bidirectional screw is rotatably connected to the middle of the storage plate, and a pair of clamping plates are symmetrically threaded to the middle of the bidirectional screw. Through the above structure, the bidirectional screw and clamping plates can be set to facilitate the fixing of the feeding tray, thereby reducing the possibility of sliding within the storage plate when the feeding tray vibrates, and improving the stability of the feeding tray position.
[0009] Preferably, the bottom of the storage plate is provided with a discharge port, and a collection box is slidably fitted to the bottom of the storage plate. The discharge port and the collection box are aligned. With the above structure, the discharge port and the collection box are provided to facilitate the collection of feed that flies out from the feeding tray, so as to reduce the situation where feed flies out when vibrating and is not easy to be collected back into the feeding tray. At this time, the accuracy of measuring the moisture content of the feed can be improved.
[0010] Preferably, an exhaust fan is installed on the side wall of the drying oven, and a ventilation opening is provided in the middle of the oven door. Through the above structure, the exhaust fan and ventilation opening can remove the water vapor generated during feed drying, thereby reducing the impact of water vapor on the drying speed inside the drying oven.
[0011] Preferably, a roller is rotatably connected to the top of the push rod, and the roller is connected to the push rod by a torsion spring. With the above structure, the roller connecting the push rod can reduce the wear caused by the large friction between the push rod and the inclined plate.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. The feed moisture content detection device of this utility model, by setting a motor to connect the turntable and the top rod, and cooperating with the placement plate, the inclined plate and the feeding tray, can facilitate the continuous turning of the feed inside the feeding tray during the drying process, so as to reduce the situation where the feed piles up together, which leads to a slower drying speed of the inner or bottom layer of feed and a longer time consumption.
[0014] 2. The feed moisture content detection device of this utility model, by setting a fixed plate and a buffer spring and a compression bar, can cause the feed in the feeding tray to vibrate multiple times when the plate falls due to the multiple contraction and rebound of the buffer spring, thereby improving the turning effect of the feed and reducing the impact force between the plate and the top rod, so as to reduce the damage caused by the impact.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Specific implementation examples are given below.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a feed moisture content detection device, comprising an oven 1. Two sets of fixed columns 11 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the oven 1. A placement plate 12 is slidably connected to the middle of the fixed columns 11. A pair of inclined plates 13 are symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the placement plate 12. A fixed box 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the oven 1. A motor 15 is installed inside the fixed box 14. A turntable 16 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 15. A top rod 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the turntable 16. A feeding tray 18 is placed on the top of the placement plate 12. A weighing scale 19 is installed on the side wall of the oven 1. A door 110 is installed on the side wall of the oven 1. During operation, a certain amount of feed sample is loaded into the feeding tray 18, and the weight is measured by the weighing scale 19. Then, the feeding tray 18 is placed inside the placement plate 12, and the feed is dried by the electric heating tubes installed on the top of the oven 1. Finally, the door 110 is closed to seal the oven 1. At this time, the motor 15 can be started to drive the turntable 18. When the turntable 16 rotates, the push rod 17 rotates with it. When the push rod 17 passes the inclined plate 13, it will press the inclined plate 13 and lift the storage plate 12. Then, after the push rod 17 passes the highest point of the inclined plate 13, the storage plate 12 will fall under the action of gravity and hit the top of the push rod 17, thereby causing the feeding tray 18 to vibrate and the feed inside to vibrate. As the storage plate 12 drives the feeding tray 18 to vibrate continuously, the feed inside can be continuously turned over. After drying, the feed in the feeding tray 18 is weighed again to calculate the difference in feed weight and determine the moisture content. Through the above structure, the motor 15 is set to connect the turntable 16 and the push rod 17, and together with the storage plate 12, inclined plate 13 and feeding tray 18, it is convenient to make the feed inside the feeding tray 18 continuously turn over during the drying process, so as to reduce the situation where the feed piles up together, which causes the inner or bottom layer of feed to dry slowly and thus takes a long time.
[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, a fixed plate 2 is fixedly connected to the middle of each fixed column 11. A buffer spring 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 2. The buffer spring 21 is sleeved in the middle of the fixed column 11. A crusher 22 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed plate 2. During operation, when the placement plate 12 falls, it will contact the crusher 22. At this time, the impact of the placement plate 12 on the crusher 22 will cause the buffer spring 21 to contract and then rebound, so that the placement plate 12 will bounce multiple times. At this time, the placement plate 12 will cause the feed on the inner wall of the feeding tray 18 to vibrate multiple times. Through the above structure, the fixed plate 2, the buffer spring 21 and the crusher 22 are set so that when the placement plate 12 falls, the feed in the feeding tray 18 will vibrate multiple times due to the multiple contraction and rebound of the buffer spring 21. This can improve the turning effect of the feed and reduce the impact force between the placement plate 12 and the top rod 17, so as to reduce the damage caused by the impact.
[0027] like Figure 5As shown, a bidirectional screw 3 is rotatably connected to the middle of the storage plate 12. A pair of clamping plates 31 are symmetrically threaded to the middle of the bidirectional screw 3. During operation, when the feeding tray 18 is placed in the storage plate 12, the bidirectional screw 3 is rotated to drive the pair of clamping plates 31 to slide relative to each other. When the bidirectional screw 3 is rotated in the forward direction, the clamping plates 31 can be driven to move closer to each other. When the clamping plates 31 contact the two sides of the feeding tray 18, they can clamp and fix it. When the bidirectional screw 3 is rotated in the reverse direction, the two clamping plates 31 can be driven to move away from each other, thereby releasing the fixation of the feeding tray 18. Through the above structure, the bidirectional screw 3 and clamping plates 31 are set to facilitate the fixation of the feeding tray 18, so as to reduce the sliding of the feeding tray 18 in the storage plate 12 when it vibrates, thereby improving the stability of the position of the feeding tray 18.
[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a discharge port 4 is provided at the bottom of the storage plate 12, and a collection box 41 is slidably fitted at the bottom of the storage plate 12. The discharge port 4 and the collection box 41 are aligned. During operation, when the feed in the feeding tray 18 vibrates, a small amount of feed will fly out of the feeding tray 18 and fall onto the surface of the storage plate 12. Then, some feed will fall from the discharge port 4 into the collection box 41 below, and some will remain on the surface of the storage plate 12. After drying, the feed remaining on the surface of the storage plate 12 can be swept from the discharge port 4 into the collection box 41 below. Then, the collection box 41 can be pulled out, the collected feed poured back into the feeding tray 18, and the collection box 41 can be reset. With the above structure, the discharge port 4 and the collection box 41 can be set up to facilitate the collection of feed that flies out of the feeding tray 18, thereby reducing the situation where feed flies out during vibration and is difficult to recover into the feeding tray 18. This can improve the accuracy of feed moisture content measurement.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an exhaust fan 5 is installed on the side wall of the drying oven 1, and a vent 51 is opened in the middle of the oven door 110. When the feed is being dried, water vapor will be generated. At this time, the exhaust fan 5 can be activated to drive the airflow into the drying oven 1 through the vent 51, and then the airflow will be discharged from the exhaust fan 5. This will remove the water vapor from the drying oven 1. Through the above structure, the exhaust fan 5 and the vent 51 can remove the water vapor generated during the drying of the feed, thereby reducing the impact of water vapor on the drying speed in the drying oven 1.
[0030] like Figure 4As shown, a roller 6 is rotatably connected to the top of the push rod 17. The roller 6 is connected to the push rod 17 via a torsion spring. During operation, when the push rod 17 contacts the inclined plate 13, the roller 6 at the top of the push rod 17 will roll at the bottom of the inclined plate 13 and will change angle under the action of the torsion spring, thereby conforming to the curved surface at the bottom of the inclined plate 13. At this time, the sliding friction between the push rod 17 and the inclined plate 13 can be converted into rolling friction to reduce the friction between the push rod 17 and the inclined plate 13. Through the above structure, the roller 6 is connected to the push rod 17, which can reduce the wear caused by the large friction between the push rod 17 and the inclined plate 13.
[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, a filter screen 7 is provided on the inner side wall of the door 110. The filter screen 7 is set in correspondence with the ventilation port 51. When the exhaust fan 5 drives the airflow into the oven 1, it will pass through the filter screen 7. At this time, the filter screen 7 will filter the airflow. Through the above structure, the filter screen 7 can reduce the dust and impurities in the airflow from entering the oven 1 and causing them to adhere to the inside and cause dirt.
[0032] Working principle: A certain amount of feed sample is loaded into the feeding tray 18, and then the weight is measured by the weighing scale 19. The feeding tray 18 is then placed in the storage plate 12, and the feed is dried by the electric heating tubes set on the top of the drying oven 1. Then the oven door 110 is closed to seal the drying oven 1. At this time, the motor 15 is started to drive the turntable 16 to rotate. The push rod 17 will rotate with the turntable 16. When the push rod 17 passes the inclined plate 13, it will squeeze the inclined plate 13 and lift the storage plate 12. Then, after the push rod 17 passes the highest point of the inclined plate 13, the storage plate 12 will fall under the action of gravity and hit the top of the push rod 17, thereby causing the feeding tray 18 to vibrate and... The internal feed vibrates, and as the feeding plate 12 drives the feeding tray 18 to vibrate continuously, the feed inside can be constantly turned over. After drying, the feed in the feeding tray 18 is weighed again to calculate the difference in feed weight and determine the moisture content. When the feeding plate 12 falls, it will contact the crusher 22. At this time, the impact of the feeding plate 12 on the crusher 22 will cause the buffer spring 21 to contract and then rebound, resulting in multiple bounces of the feeding plate 12. At this time, the feeding plate 12 will drive the feed on the inner wall of the feeding tray 18 to vibrate multiple times. When the feeding tray 18 is placed in the feeding plate 12, the rotation of the double-acting screw 3 drives a pair of clamping plates 31 to slide relative to each other. When the double-acting screw 3 is rotated in the forward direction, it can drive the feed inside the tray 18 to vibrate. The clamping plates 31 are brought close together. When the clamping plates 31 contact the two sides of the feeding tray 18, they can clamp and fix it. When the bidirectional screw 3 is reversed, it can drive the two clamping plates 31 away from each other, thereby releasing the fixation of the feeding tray 18. When the feed in the feeding tray 18 vibrates, a small amount of feed will fly out of the feeding tray 18 and fall onto the surface of the storage plate 12. Then, some feed will fall from the discharge port 4 into the collection box 41 below, and some will remain on the surface of the storage plate 12. After drying, the feed remaining on the surface of the storage plate 12 can be swept from the discharge port 4 into the collection box 41 below. Then, the collection box 41 can be pulled out, the collected feed poured back into the feeding tray 18, and the collection box 41 can be pulled out. 1. Reset: When drying feed, water vapor is generated. At this time, the exhaust fan 5 can be activated to drive the airflow into the drying oven 1 through the vent 51 and then exhaust it out from the exhaust fan 5. This can remove the water vapor from the drying oven 1. When the top rod 17 contacts the inclined plate 13, the roller 6 at the top of the top rod 17 will roll at the bottom of the inclined plate 13 and will change angle under the action of the torsion spring, thus conforming to the curved surface at the bottom of the inclined plate 13. At this time, the sliding friction between the top rod 17 and the inclined plate 13 can be converted into rolling friction to reduce the friction between the top rod 17 and the inclined plate 13. When the exhaust fan 5 drives the airflow into the drying oven 1, it will pass through the filter screen 7. At this time, the filter screen 7 will filter the airflow.
