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.
[0033] Reference Figures 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a livestock feed preparation and dispensing device, comprising a vehicle body 1 for moving the dispensing device within a farm, which can be electrically driven for easy operation. A support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the vehicle body 1, supporting a mixing tank 3 and a feed trough 4, providing space for the discharge frame 11 to extend downwards. The mixing tank 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 2, and the mixing tank 3 is used to fully mix feed and additives by rotating within a mixing plate 7. The feed trough 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the mixing tank 3, and the feed is placed in the trough 4 for being fully crushed by a crushing roller 9. A motor 5 is fixedly connected to the middle of the back of the mixing tank 3. The motor 5 is existing technology and is used to drive the mixing plate 7 to mix the feed. The crushing roller 9 is driven to crush the feed through a transmission wheel 6 and a transmission belt 8. The output shaft of the motor 5 is fixedly connected to the transmission wheel 6, which is used to make the mixing plate 7 and the crushing roller 9 rotate synchronously through the transmission belt 8. The end of the transmission wheel 6 is fixedly connected to the mixing plate 7, which is open. The mixing tank 3 has perforations for stirring and dispersing forage and feed to achieve thorough mixing. Two sets of drive wheels 6 are connected by a drive belt 8. A pressing roller 9 is fixedly connected to the end of the top set of drive wheels 6. The pressing roller 9 is used to compress the forage and feed to maintain a uniform size. A discharge plate 10 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mixing tank 3. The discharge plate 10 is used to close the mixing tank 3, allowing the feed to be fully pre-mixed within the mixing tank 3, improving mixing uniformity. Two sets of discharge outlets are hinged to the inner side of the support frame 2. The discharge frame 11 is used to feed the feed into the breeding trough through the linkage component. The two sets of discharge frames 11 are equipped with linkage components at their ends. The outer wall of the transmission wheel 6 is slidably connected to the back outer wall of the mixing tank 3 and the feed trough 4. The end of the mixing plate 7 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the mixing tank 3. The end of the rolling roller 9 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the feed trough 4. The outer walls of the two sets of discharge frames 11 are slidably connected to the inner side wall of the support frame 2. The top opening of the discharge frame 11 is slidably connected to the bottom outer wall of the baffle 13.
[0034] Reference Figures 3-5A groove 12 is provided at the bottom front of the mixing tank 3. The groove 12 is used to keep the sliding rod 14 sliding stably on its inner wall. A baffle 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom opening of the mixing tank 3. The baffle 13 is used to prevent gaps from appearing when the discharge frame 11 is angled downward, which would cause the feed to spill out. A sliding rod 14 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the discharge plate 10. The sliding rod 14 is used to extend the discharge plate 10, which is easy to manually open or close from the outside. A square elongated block is provided on the outer wall to keep the limiting frame 16 sliding stably. The limiting frame 16 is elastically connected to the outer wall of the sliding rod 14 through the limiting spring 15. The limiting frame 16 is used for manual release from the external limit, which is easy for manual operation. A limiting block 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting frame 16. The limiting block 17 is provided with two sets, upper and lower. The limiting groove 18 is used to fix the discharge plate 10. The bottom of the front of the mixing tank 3 has a limiting groove 18 with two sets of upper and lower limiting grooves, which are used to lock the limiting block 17 to open or close the discharge plate 10. One end of the limiting spring 15 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the slide rod 14, and the other end of the limiting spring 15 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the limiting frame 16. Through the opposing squeezing force between the limiting spring 15 and the slide rod 14, the limiting block 17 is always locked on the inner wall of the limiting groove 18 without being affected by external force. The outer wall of the slide rod 14 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 12. The inner wall of the limiting frame 16 is penetrated and slidably connected to the outer wall of the slide rod 14. The outer end of the limiting block 17 is locked on the inner wall of the limiting groove 18.
[0035] Reference Figures 4-6 The linkage assembly includes a connecting rod 19, which extends the discharge frame 11. A sliding frame 21 simultaneously drives two sets of connecting rods 19 to slide up and down. The ends of the connecting rods 19 are fixedly connected to the outer ends of the discharge frame 11. The outer wall of the connecting rods 19 is slidably connected to the sliding frame 21. The sliding frame 21 has transverse grooves at both ends for pressing the connecting rods 19 to slide up and down, thereby causing the discharge frame 11 to unfold in a fan shape along the hinge, achieving height adjustment of the discharge frame 11. A threaded rod 22 is rotatably connected to the top of the sliding frame 21. The threaded rod 22 is used for... The threaded connection on the inner wall of the fixed plate 23 drives the sliding frame 21 to move up and down. The inner side of the outer wall of the threaded rod 22 is threadedly connected to the fixed plate 23. The fixed plate 23 is used to provide the threaded rotation point for the threaded rod 22, so that the threaded rod 22 rotates perpendicular to it. The front end of the support frame 2 is provided with an arc groove 20. The arc groove 20 is the rotation trajectory of the connecting rod 19. The connecting rod 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the arc groove 20. The back of the sliding frame 21 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the support frame 2. The end of the fixed plate 23 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support frame 2.
[0036] Working principle: When the feed is placed at different heights, the sliding frame 21 is raised or lowered by manually rotating the threaded rod 22. Then, the connecting rod 19 is pressed by the transverse groove at the end of the sliding frame 21 and slides up and down on the inner wall of the arc groove 20. The connecting rod 19 then drives the discharge frame 11 to make a fan-shaped unfolding motion along the hinge, so as to manually adjust the height of the discharge frame 11, improve the accuracy of feeding, and avoid excessive dragging height, so that the feed is not affected by the wind and scattered to other positions.
[0037] In current livestock feed preparation and distribution methods, manual or simple mechanical stirring is often used, which makes it difficult to achieve uniformity. For example, when adding vitamins or other additives, local concentrations may be too high or too low, affecting the livestock's nutrient intake. During feed mixing, the limiting frame 16 is manually pulled to disengage the limiting block 17 from the limiting groove 18, releasing the limiting mechanism. Then, the sliding rod 14 is slid to the bottom along the sliding groove 12, which in turn drives the discharge plate 10 to close the bottom opening of the mixing tank 3. The limiting frame 16 is then released, and the limiting block 17 is springed back into the bottom limiting groove 18 by the limiting spring 15. The motor 5 is then turned on to drive the transmission wheel 6 to rotate, which in turn drives the mixing plate 7 to rotate. Simultaneously, the transmission wheel 6 drives the crushing roller 9 to rotate synchronously via the transmission belt 8. The feed ingredients and additives are then poured into the feed trough 4, where the crushing roller 9 crushes the feed to a uniform size. Finally, the mixing plate 7 thoroughly mixes the feed and additives, improving the uniformity of the mixture.
[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
