[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a feeding device for pet food processing, comprising a base, a first conveying shell rotatably connected to the upper end face of the base via a hinge, an mounting block fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first conveying shell, a sliding hole penetrating through one side wall of the mounting block located below the first conveying shell, a second conveying shell slidably connected inside the sliding hole, a notch penetrating through the upper end of the outer wall of the second conveying shell, multi-stage telescopic plates fixedly connected to the left and right inner side walls of the notch and abutting against the front and rear inner side walls of the notch, a connecting plate fixedly connected between the two multi-stage telescopic plates located inside the sliding hole, a material passage pipe communicating with the second conveying shell fixedly connected to the upper end face of the connecting plate, and the other end of the material passage pipe penetrating through the mounting block and communicating with the first conveying shell;

[0006] A drive mechanism is provided on the right side wall of the first conveying housing.

[0007] In order to drive the second conveying housing to move, as a preferred embodiment of the pet food processing and feeding device of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes a mounting groove fixedly connected to the right side wall of the first conveying housing, a screw rotatably connected inside the mounting groove, a slider threadedly connected to the screw fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second conveying housing, a stepper motor installed on the right side wall of the mounting groove, and the output end of the stepper motor fixedly connected to the screw.

[0008] In order to drive the two spiral conveying rods to rotate respectively, as a preferred embodiment of the pet food processing and feeding device of this utility model, the spiral conveying rods are rotatably connected inside the first conveying shell and the second conveying shell. The left side walls of the first conveying shell and the second conveying shell are both equipped with drive motors, and the output ends of the two drive motors are respectively fixedly connected to the two spiral conveying rods.

[0009] To facilitate adjustment of the tilt angle of the first and second conveying shells, as a preferred embodiment of the pet food processing and feeding device of this utility model, the base and the mounting block are rotatably connected by an electric telescopic rod via a hinge.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments to aid in understanding its content. Unless otherwise specified, the methods used in this invention are conventional methods; the raw materials and apparatus used, unless otherwise specified, are conventional commercially available products.

[0019] Please see Figures 1 to 3 A feeding device for pet food processing includes a base 1. The upper end of the base 1 is rotatably connected to a first conveying shell 2 via a hinge. An mounting block 3 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the first conveying shell 2. A sliding hole 4 located below the first conveying shell 2 is opened through one side wall of the mounting block 3. A second conveying shell 5 is slidably connected inside the sliding hole 4. A notch 6 is opened through the upper end of the outer wall of the second conveying shell 5. Multi-stage telescopic plates 7 that abut against the front and rear inner walls of the notch 6 are fixedly connected to the left and right inner side walls of the notch 6. A connecting plate 8 located inside the sliding hole 4 is fixedly connected between the two multi-stage telescopic plates 7. A feed pipe 9 communicating with the second conveying shell 5 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting plate 8. The other end of the feed pipe 9 passes through the mounting block 3 and communicates with the first conveying shell 2.

[0020] A drive mechanism is provided on the right side wall of the first conveying housing 2.

[0021] In this embodiment: When adjusting the length of the feeding device, the second conveying shell 5 is moved within the sliding hole 4 by the drive mechanism. During the movement of the second conveying shell 5, since the feed pipe 9 and the connecting plate 8 are fixed structures, the two multi-stage telescopic plates 7 can be extended and retracted through the feed pipe 9 and the connecting plate 8. When the drive mechanism moves the second conveying shell 5 to the right, the feed pipe 9 and the connecting plate 8 drive the multi-stage telescopic plate 7 on the right side to extend, and the feed pipe 9 and the connecting plate 8 drive the multi-stage telescopic plate 7 on the left side to retract, thereby lengthening the feeding device. When the drive mechanism moves the second conveying shell 5 to the left, the feed pipe 9 and the connecting plate 8 drive the multi-stage telescopic plate 7 on the right side to retract, and the feed pipe 9 and the connecting plate 8 drive the multi-stage telescopic plate 7 on the left side to extend, thereby shortening the feeding device. This ensures that the two multi-stage telescopic plates 7 always cooperate with each other, allowing the second conveying shell 5 to move while simultaneously sealing the gap 6 to prevent feed raw materials from leaking through the gap 6. This allows for adjustment of the length of the feeding device, making it suitable for feed processing equipment of different heights and thus having a wide range of applications.

[0022] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the driving mechanism includes a mounting groove 10 fixedly connected to the right side wall of the first conveying housing 2, a screw 11 rotatably connected inside the mounting groove 10, a slider 12 threadedly connected to the screw 11 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the second conveying housing 5, a stepper motor 13 installed on the right side wall of the mounting groove 10, and the output end of the stepper motor 13 fixedly connected to the screw 11.

[0023] In this embodiment: the stepper motor 13 is started, the stepper motor 13 drives the screw 11 to rotate, and the screw 11, together with the slider 12, drives the second conveying shell 5 to move.

[0024] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a spiral conveying rod 14 is rotatably connected inside the first conveying shell 2 and the second conveying shell 5. A drive motor 15 is installed on the left side wall of both the first conveying shell 2 and the second conveying shell 5. The output ends of the two drive motors 15 are respectively fixedly connected to the two spiral conveying rods 14.

[0025] In this embodiment: two drive motors 15 are started, and the two drive motors 15 respectively drive the two spiral conveyor rods 14 to rotate.

[0026] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the base 1 and the mounting block 3 are rotatably connected by an electric telescopic rod 16 through a hinge.

[0027] In this embodiment, the electric telescopic rod 16 can support the first conveying housing 2 and the second conveying housing 5, and can also adjust the tilt angle of the first conveying housing 2 and the second conveying housing 5 by extending and retracting the electric telescopic rod 16.

[0028] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the upper end of the outer wall of the first conveying shell 2 is connected to the feed trough 17.

[0029] In this embodiment, the feed trough 17 facilitates the addition of feed ingredients into the first conveying shell 2.

[0030] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the lower end of the outer wall of the second conveying shell 5 is connected to a discharge pipe 18.

[0031] In this embodiment, the discharge pipe 18 facilitates the discharge of feed materials from the second conveying shell 5.

[0032] Working principle:

[0033] In use, feed ingredients are added to the first conveying housing 2 through the feed trough 17. Then, the two drive motors 15 are started, which drive the two screw conveyors 14 to rotate. The upper screw conveyor 14 conveys the feed ingredients in the first conveying housing 2 to the feed pipe 9, and then through the feed pipe 9 into the second conveying housing 5. The lower screw conveyor 14 conveys the feed ingredients in the second conveying housing 5 to the discharge pipe 18, and then discharges them through the discharge pipe 18, thus conveying the feed ingredients.

[0034] When adjusting the length of the feeding device, the stepper motor 13 is started. The stepper motor 13 drives the screw 11 to rotate. The screw 11, together with the slider 12, drives the second conveying housing 5 to move within the sliding hole 4. During the movement of the second conveying housing 5, since the feed pipe 9 and the connecting plate 8 are fixed structures, the two multi-stage telescopic plates 7 can be driven to extend and retract through the feed pipe 9 and the connecting plate 8. When the drive mechanism moves the second conveying housing 5 to the right, the feed pipe 9 and connecting plate 8 drive the multi-stage telescopic plate 7 on the right to extend, and the feed pipe 9 and connecting plate 8 drive the multi-stage telescopic plate 7 on the left to retract, thereby lengthening the feeding device. When the drive mechanism moves the second conveying housing 5 to the left, the feed pipe 9 and connecting plate 8 drive the multi-stage telescopic plate 7 on the right to retract, and the feed pipe 9 and connecting plate 8 drive the multi-stage telescopic plate 7 on the left to extend, thereby shortening the feeding device. This ensures that the two multi-stage telescopic plates 7 always cooperate with each other, allowing the second conveying housing 5 to move while simultaneously sealing the gap 6 to prevent feed raw materials from leaking through the gap 6. This allows for adjustment of the length of the feeding device, making it suitable for feed processing equipment of different heights and thus having a wide range of applications.
