Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry, and in particular to a forage crusher for sheep farms. Background Technology

[0002] In sheep farming, forage grinding is an essential step. Grinding makes forage easier for sheep to digest and absorb, improving feed utilization and growth rate. While large-scale grinders offer high grinding efficiency, they are expensive, and their complex structure and large size make maintenance and upkeep relatively difficult.

[0003] Small-scale shredders are widely favored for their simple structure, ease of use, and low cost. Among them, the barrel shredder is a commonly used type. Barrel shredders typically employ a bottom-mounted blade design; the feed is fed into the barrel and shredded by the high-speed rotation of the blades. However, because the opening of a barrel shredder is usually large and lacks an effective shielding device, debris easily splashes out during the shredding process, resulting in resource waste and a messy shredding area.

[0004] Secondly, because the blades of the bucket are located at the bottom, when the feed is fed into the bucket, it often directly impacts the blades. This impact not only reduces the lifespan of the blades but may also cause deformation or damage to the blades, thus affecting the crushing effect and the normal operation of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a forage crusher for sheep farms, which solves the problems of existing small barrel-shaped crushers where debris easily splashes out of the barrel opening and directly impacts the blades, causing damage.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A forage crusher for sheep farms includes a barrel body, a barrel cover on the top of the barrel body, and symmetrical feed inlets on the top of the barrel cover. A baffle is rotatably connected inside the feed inlet via a rotating rod. A torsion spring is sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod. The two sides of the baffle are elastically connected to the corresponding side walls of the feed inlet via torsion springs. The torsion springs are used to allow the baffle to automatically return to the position of blocking the feed inlet when no external force is applied. A mesh is fixedly connected to the bottom of the barrel cover. The inner diameter of the mesh gradually decreases from top to bottom. A surrounding plate is fixedly connected to the top of the barrel cover.

[0007] Preferably, a bracket is installed at the bottom of the barrel, and a motor is installed inside the bracket. The output end of the motor passes through the bottom of the barrel and is rotatably connected to the barrel. A four-blade is fixedly connected to the outside of the output end of the motor. The output end of the motor drives the four-blade to rotate at high speed, thereby realizing the function of crushing the forage.

[0008] Preferably, the side panels have waist-shaped holes to facilitate the removal and placement of the lid, allowing operators to easily lift or lower the lid.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the bucket lid is fixedly connected with curved surfaces between the feed inlets to prevent material from accumulating on the plane between the feed inlets at the top of the bucket lid, allowing the feed to fall more smoothly into the bucket.

[0010] Preferably, the two sides of the curved surface extend towards the feed inlet, forming an obstruction to the upward rotation of the baffle, limiting the maximum rotation angle of the baffle, and ensuring that the baffle can automatically return to the position of blocking the feed inlet when not subjected to external force, effectively preventing the splashing of debris.

[0011] Preferably, the baffle is equipped with a detection window, which allows for observation of the working status inside the barrel without opening the baffle, such as the crushing of the forage and the wear of the blades.

[0012] Preferably, a discharge port is provided on one side of the bottom of the barrel, from which the crushed grass is discharged. A filter screen is provided inside the discharge port to filter the crushed grass, ensuring that the discharged grass has a uniform particle size and is free of large impurities. A hopper is provided on one side of the barrel at the discharge port for easy collection of the discharged grass.

[0013] Preferably, a handle is rotatably connected to the outside of the barrel, making it easy to move and transport the crusher, thus improving the portability and flexibility of the equipment.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] This invention utilizes a baffle structure with a torsion spring, which allows the baffle to automatically return to the position of blocking the feed inlet when no external force is applied. This effectively prevents debris from splashing out of the barrel during the crushing process, reduces the risk of injury to operators, and improves the safety performance of the equipment.

[0016] This invention features a mesh screen fixedly connected to the bottom of the bucket lid. The inner diameter of the mesh screen gradually decreases from top to bottom, which acts as a buffer for the feed, reducing the direct impact of the feed on the bottom blades, thus protecting the blades, extending their service life, and reducing maintenance costs.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This embodiment provides a forage crusher for sheep farms, including a barrel body 1, a barrel cover 2 on the top of the barrel body 1, and symmetrical feed inlets on the top of the barrel cover 2. A baffle 4 is rotatably connected inside the feed inlet via a rotating rod 3. A torsion spring 5 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod 3. The two sides of the baffle 4 are elastically connected to the side walls corresponding to the feed inlet via the torsion spring 5 respectively. The torsion spring 5 is used to allow the baffle 4 to automatically return to the position of blocking the feed inlet when no external force is applied. A mesh 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the barrel cover 2. The inner diameter of the mesh 6 gradually decreases from top to bottom. A surrounding plate 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the barrel cover 2.

[0024] During crushing, the lid 2 is attached to the barrel body 1, and the straw is fed in through the feed inlet. When fed in, the weight of the straw causes the baffle 4 to rotate downward, thereby opening the feed inlet and allowing the straw to enter the barrel body 1. When feeding stops and the baffle 4 is no longer subjected to external force, the torsion spring 5 causes the baffle 4 to automatically return to the position of blocking the feed inlet, thereby effectively preventing the debris from splashing out of the barrel opening during the crushing process. At the same time, the mesh 6 at the bottom of the lid 2 acts as a buffer for the incoming straw, reducing the direct impact of the straw on the blades.

[0025] A bracket 8 is installed at the bottom of the barrel 1. A motor 9 is installed inside the bracket 8. The output end of the motor 9 passes through the bottom of the barrel 1 and is rotatably connected to the barrel 1. A four-blade blade 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of the output end of the motor 9. The output end of the motor 9 drives the four-blade blade 10 to rotate at high speed, continuously crushing the grass inside the barrel 1.

[0026] The side panels 7 have waist-shaped holes 11 on both sides to facilitate the removal, placement, adjustment, and movement of the bucket lid 2.

[0027] A curved surface 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the bucket lid 2 between the feed inlets to prevent material from accumulating on the plane between the feed inlets at the top of the bucket lid 2.

[0028] The two sides of the curved noodle 12 extend towards the feed inlet, forming an obstruction to the upward rotation of the baffle 4, limiting the maximum rotation angle of the baffle 4, and ensuring that the baffle 4 can only remain in the state of blocking the feed inlet when it is not subjected to external force.

[0029] The baffle 4 is equipped with a detection window 13 to facilitate observation of the working status of the strain net 6 and the crushing of the straw inside the barrel 1.

[0030] A discharge port is provided on one side of the bottom of the barrel 1. A filter screen 14 is provided inside the discharge port. A hopper 15 is provided on one side of the barrel 1 at the discharge port. After crushing, the debris is discharged through the discharge port at the bottom of the barrel 1. The filter screen 14 ensures that the discharged debris has a uniform particle size, and the hopper 15 facilitates the collection of the discharged debris.

[0031] A handle 16 is rotatably connected to the outside of the barrel body 1, which facilitates the lifting and movement of the barrel body 1.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
