Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of livestock feed processing equipment, and in particular to a feed processing device for livestock breeding. Background Technology

[0002] In cattle and sheep farming, feed consumption is enormous, accounting for a large portion of the overall cost of raising livestock. To address this, farmers typically process feed themselves to reduce costs throughout the entire farming process. Currently, feed processing usually involves mixing a certain amount of chopped straw and corn, then using pelleting equipment to produce strip-shaped feed for easy feeding and storage. However, the mixing process usually involves farmers mixing the two in batches and then pouring the mixture into the pelleting equipment, which is cumbersome, prevents continuous feeding, and results in long preparation times, thus reducing production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a feed processing device for livestock breeding, which addresses the above-mentioned technical deficiencies. By installing the whole device at the feed inlet of the pelleting equipment, corn and straw are mixed during the feeding process in the mixing channel without manual intervention, shortening the preparation time, maintaining continuous feeding, and improving production efficiency.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model includes: a housing and gates; a first storage tank is provided above the housing, a mixing channel communicating with the first storage tank is provided below the housing, a separation chamber is provided in the middle of the mixing channel, a feeding shaft is provided below the separation chamber, and a feeding auger blade is provided above the separation chamber; two gates are installed at the connection between the first storage tank and the mixing channel.

[0005] Preferably, a second storage tank is provided at the rear of the housing.

[0006] Preferably, the separation chamber is provided with an annular channel communicating with the second storage tank above it, and the annular channel is provided with a discharge port in the middle.

[0007] Preferably, the top of the separation chamber has a pointed structure.

[0008] Preferably, the feeding shaft is provided with a plurality of feeding slots evenly distributed on it.

[0009] Preferably, a baffle is provided at the outlet of the mixing channel, and the baffle is located in the middle area.

[0010] Preferably, the top of the mixing channel is provided with a sliding groove, the sliding groove is slidably connected to the gate, and the housing is provided with a telescopic component connected to the gate.

[0011] Preferably, the groove has an arc-shaped notch in the middle.

[0012] Preferably, the first storage tank is provided with a stirring shaft, and the stirring shaft is provided with multiple levers at equal intervals.

[0013] Preferably, both the housing and the first storage tank are provided with observation areas.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0015] 1. The chopped straw falls from the first storage trough into the mixing channel, and is divided into two channels by the separation chamber. During the gathering process, corn is provided from the inside of the feeding axis. The mixed feed directly enters the pelleting equipment without the need for personnel preparation. It can also achieve continuous feeding, which greatly improves the overall work efficiency.

[0016] 2. The combination of two gates and the feeding shaft enables feeding operations as needed, satisfying both continuous operation and batch feeding operation modes, facilitating selection for practical use;

[0017] 3. The second storage tank serves as the storage space for the corn. Together with the feeding auger blades, it can meet the needs of feeding operations for a longer period of time. Together with the first storage tank, it can greatly reduce the frequency of feeding and reduce labor intensity.

[0018] 4. While the separation chamber diverts the chopped straw, it can also temporarily store the corn. It works in conjunction with the feeding shaft to achieve the function of feeding. Furthermore, by adding corn during the process of chopped straw gathering, the corn can be mixed into the internal area, improving the uniformity of corn distribution. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.

[0028] Specific implementation method one: Combining Figure 1-7 As shown, a feed processing device for livestock farming includes: a housing 1 and gates 6; a first storage trough 101 is welded to the top of the housing 1, and chopped straw and additives are added to the first storage trough 101; a mixing channel 2 communicating with the first storage trough 101 is provided below the housing 1; a separation chamber 3 is provided in the middle of the mixing channel 2, which divides the mixing channel 2 into left and right parts; when the falling chopped straw passes through the top of the separation chamber 3, it is divided into two raw materials and then gathers again near the outlet of the mixing channel 2; at the same time, a rotating feeding shaft 4 is provided below the separation chamber 3, and one end of the feeding shaft 4 is connected to an electric motor; a feeding auger blade 5 is provided above the separation chamber 3 for supplying corn raw materials into the separation chamber 3; two gates 6 are installed at the connection between the first storage trough 101 and the mixing channel 2 for controlling the feeding of raw materials such as straw.

[0029] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 2 As shown, a second storage tank 102 is provided at the rear of the casing 1. The second storage tank 102 increases the storage space for corn, extends the feeding time, and reduces the feeding frequency.

[0030] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 2-4 As shown, an annular channel 301 communicating with the second storage tank 102 is provided above the separation chamber 3, and a discharge port 302 is provided in the middle of the annular channel 301. The feeding auger blade 5 can continuously feed the corn raw material in the second storage tank 102 into the separation chamber 3. The rear end of the feeding auger blade 5 is also connected to an electric motor to drive its own rotation.

[0031] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 3As shown, the top of the separation chamber 3 is a pointed structure, which can smoothly separate the fallen straw material into two streams, and guide them through the inner wall of the mixing channel 2 to gather them together again. The top of the separation chamber 3 can also be a flat or arc-shaped structure. When it is a flat structure, although residue is more likely to occur, it can still meet the requirements of the separation operation. To address this, two inclined nozzles can be installed in the upper area of ​​the mixing channel 2. The nozzles can generate airflow to remove the accumulated residue and also clean the mixing channel 2.

[0032] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 6 As shown, the feeding shaft 4 is evenly provided with multiple feeding troughs 401. The feeding troughs 401 can be arranged in a pattern of 3-6. When corn enters the feeding trough 401, it falls down under the action of gravity after being rotated to the bottom, thus mixing with the chopped straw. During the process of the feeding shaft 4 driving the corn to rotate, some corn may be sheared against the arc wall below the separation chamber 3. Therefore, the feeding shaft 4 itself needs to be made of a metal material with high hardness, such as carbon steel or alloy steel.

[0033] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 3 As shown, a baffle 201 is provided at the outlet of the mixing channel 2, and the baffle 201 is located in the middle area. During the process of corn falling, some of it comes into contact with the baffle 201, forming a certain dispersion effect and improving the mixing effect with straw.

[0034] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the top of the mixing channel 2 is symmetrically provided with a sliding groove 202. The sliding groove 202 is slidably connected to the gate plate 6. The housing 1 is provided with a telescopic component 103 connected to the gate plate 6. The telescopic component 103 adopts a hydraulic cylinder structure or an electric push rod structure. The gate plate 6 is driven to slide in the sliding groove 202 by the telescopic component 103 to realize the control of the material supply. The gate plates 6 are arranged in pairs to ensure that the straw raw material can fall from the middle area first, which is convenient for the separation chamber 3 to carry out the separation operation.

[0035] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the middle of the slide groove 202 has an arc-shaped notch 203, which provides space for the push rod on the telescopic component 103 to move.

[0036] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the first storage tank 101 is equipped with a stirring shaft 7, and multiple levers 701 are evenly spaced on the stirring shaft 7 to stir the straw raw materials and prevent them from accumulating and clogging the inlet position.

[0037] Preferred embodiments, in combination Figure 1As shown, both the housing 1 and the first storage tank 101 are provided with observation areas 8. The observation areas 8 are made of acrylic sheet material, forming a transparent viewing area to facilitate observation of the internal raw materials.

[0038] During processing, when adding raw materials to the pelleting equipment, the workers pour the simply mixed corn and straw materials into the small pelleting equipment. Since the inlet is open, some dust will be generated. However, after installing this device above the pelleting equipment, the outlet of the mixing channel 2 is connected to the pelleting equipment, forming a relatively closed space. During the feeding process, dust is avoided, ensuring the working environment.

[0039] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within its protection scope. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
