Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of feed mixing technology, specifically to a high-efficiency feed mixing device for sheep. Background Technology
[0002] In today's increasingly large-scale sheep farming industry, the quality and efficiency of sheep feed mixing play a crucial role in the healthy growth of sheep flocks and the profitability of farming. Traditional sheep feed mixing methods mostly rely on manual stirring or simple machinery. Manual stirring is labor-intensive, inefficient, and makes it difficult to ensure uniform mixing, often resulting in some feeds being insufficiently mixed, which in turn affects the sheep's balanced intake of nutrients. Simple mechanical mixing equipment is often single-function; for example, relying solely on a stirring structure cannot create efficient circulation and turning of the feed, leading to feed accumulation at the bottom of the mixing container and poor mixing effect. Moreover, the lack of optimized design in the feeding and discharging stages often results in feed residue. Prolonged residue not only wastes feed but can also contaminate subsequent feed due to mold and spoilage, causing economic losses for farmers and endangering the health of sheep. Therefore, there is a need for a high-efficiency, stable sheep feed mixing device that can guarantee feed quality to meet the industry's needs. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In response to the aforementioned technical problems, this application solves the problems of poor mixing effect of sheep feed in the prior art, which easily leads to waste and pollution.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a high-efficiency sheep feed mixing device, including a support frame, multiple side mounting plates fixedly installed on the support frame, a mixing cylinder fixedly installed on the side mounting plates, a double mixing zone provided on the mixing cylinder, two mixing shafts rotatably installed on the support frame, a cover plate vertically slidingly installed on the mixing shaft, the cover plate being slidably connected to the support frame, a mixing rod and a feed threaded disc fixedly installed on the mixing shaft, the diameter of the feed threaded disc being smaller than that of the mixing rod, a connecting cylinder rotatably installed on the mixing rod, a guide plate fixedly installed on the connecting cylinder, the guide plate being inclined, a baffle fixedly installed on the mixing cylinder, and two door panels rotatably installed on the mixing cylinder.
[0005] Preferably, a motor is fixedly installed on the support frame, a drive shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor, a main gear is fixedly installed on the drive shaft, a stabilizer is rotatably installed on the mixing shaft, the drive shaft is rotatably installed on the stabilizer, and an external gear is fixedly installed on the mixing shaft, the external gear meshing with the main gear.
[0006] Preferably, the mixing cylinder has two rotating shafts, each with a small gear fixedly mounted on it, and the two shafts mesh with each other.
[0007] Preferably, an electric cylinder is fixedly installed on the mixing cylinder, a front connecting rod is rotatably mounted on the output end of the electric cylinder, a rear connecting rod is rotatably mounted on the front connecting rod, a connecting shaft is fixedly mounted on the rear connecting rod, and the connecting shaft is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft.
[0008] Preferably, an installation shaft is fixedly provided on the mixing rod, an internal cavity is provided on the connecting cylinder, the installation shaft is located in the internal cavity of the connecting cylinder and is rotatably connected to the connecting cylinder, and a torsion spring is fixedly provided on the mixing rod, the torsion spring is placed in the internal cavity of the connecting cylinder and is fixedly connected to the connecting cylinder.
[0009] Preferably, the mixing cylinder is provided with two mixing rods, which are in contact with the inner wall of the mixing cylinder and are staggered.
[0010] The technical solution provided in this application has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0011] 1. This application achieves a circular path by using a dual mixing zone design and the cooperation between the mixing rod on the mixing shaft and the feed threaded disc, which enables the internal feed to be spirally conveyed upwards and the external feed to move downwards by gravity. This allows the feed to be turned over in all directions inside the mixing cylinder, greatly improving the mixing effect and efficiency, and ensuring that all components of the feed are evenly distributed.
[0012] 2. The special door panel design at the bottom of the mixing cylinder in this application, together with the baffle, forms a seamless plane when closed, effectively preventing feed from entering the gaps and leaving residue. Moreover, the openings at both the top and bottom of the mixing cylinder can handle residual feed, avoiding the problem of mold and spoilage caused by residue, ensuring the quality of subsequent feed, reducing feed waste, and lowering breeding costs.
[0013] 3. When the mixing shaft is driven by the motor in this application, the stabilizing rod and gear structure are used to make the mixing shaft rotate stably, which limits violent shaking and reduces the probability of collision between the mixing rod and other parts and the inner wall of the mixing cylinder. This not only reduces equipment wear and extends service life, but also ensures smooth and orderly mixing of feed, and avoids disorderly agitation affecting the distribution of various components in the feed.
[0014] 4. The guide plate connected to the mixing rod of this application, in conjunction with the torsion spring, can automatically adjust the pushing force and method according to the viscosity of the feed. Through multiple pushes, it adapts to different working conditions, avoids excessive stress on parts due to excessive feed resistance, effectively protects equipment parts, ensures stable and reliable operation of the equipment under various feed conditions, broadens the scope of application of the equipment, and provides farmers with a more convenient feed mixing solution.

Detailed Implementation
[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0023] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the high-efficiency sheep feed mixing equipment includes a support frame 101, on which multiple side mounting plates 102 are fixedly installed. A mixing cylinder 103 is fixedly installed on the side mounting plates 102. The mixing cylinder 103 is provided with a double mixing zone. Two mixing shafts 105 are rotatably installed on the support frame 101. A cover plate 104 is vertically slidably installed on the mixing shaft 105. The cover plate 104 is slidably connected to the support frame 101. A mixing rod 106 and a feed threaded disc 107 are fixedly installed on the mixing shaft 105. The diameter of the feed threaded disc 107 is smaller than that of the mixing rod 106. A connecting cylinder 108 is rotatably installed on the mixing rod 106. A guide plate 109 is fixedly installed on the connecting cylinder 108. The guide plate 109 is inclined. A baffle 110 is fixedly installed on the mixing cylinder 103. Two door panels 111 are rotatably installed on the mixing cylinder 103.
[0025] Specifically, when mixing is required, the staff manually controls the cover plate 104 to slide upward on the support frame 101 and the mixing shaft 105, separating the cover plate 104 from the mixing cylinder 103, thereby exposing the opening at the upper end of the mixing cylinder 103. The staff put sheep feed into the mixing cylinder 103 through this opening, and then releases the cover plate 104. By gravity, the cover plate 104 returns to its original position, sealing the opening of the mixing cylinder 103, thus enabling feeding.
[0026] During mixing, two mixing shafts 105 are driven to rotate in the two mixing zones of the mixing cylinder 103. The mixing rods 106 on the mixing shafts 105 agitate the feed. The feed at the bottom of the mixing cylinder 103 is spirally conveyed upwards by the rotation of the feed threaded disc 107. Since the diameter of the feed threaded disc 107 is smaller than that of the mixing rods 106, the feed threaded disc 107 only conveys the feed in the middle of the bottom of the mixing zone, while the feed around the edges moves towards the center by gravity. The feed agitated by the mixing rods 106 moves downwards, thus cooperating with the upward conveying of the feed threaded disc 107 to form a feed circulation path with internal upward conveying and external downward conveying, thereby improving the mixing effect and efficiency of the feed.
[0027] After mixing, the two door panels 111 are controlled to rotate on the mixing cylinder 103, thereby opening the conveying channel at the bottom of the mixing cylinder 103. The mixed feed falls by gravity and is collected by a collection box set below. If there is any feed residue in the mixing cylinder 103, it can be processed through the openings at the top and bottom of the mixing cylinder 103, thereby avoiding feed residue and long-term residue, which may lead to mold and deterioration and affect the quality of subsequent feed.
[0028] like Figure 2As shown, a motor 113 is fixedly installed on the support frame 101, a drive shaft 114 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 113, a main gear 115 is fixedly installed on the drive shaft 114, a stabilizer bar 117 is rotatably installed on the mixing shaft 105, the drive shaft 114 is rotatably installed on the stabilizer bar 117, and an external gear 116 is fixedly installed on the mixing shaft 105, the external gear 116 meshing with the main gear 115.
[0029] During mixing, the motor 113 is started, and the motor 113 drives the drive shaft 114 to rotate on the stabilizer bar 117. The drive shaft 114 drives the main gear 115 to rotate. The main gear 115 meshes with two external gears 116, driving the external gears 116 on both sides and the mixing shaft 105 to rotate. When the main gear 115, external gears 116 and mixing shaft 105 rotate, the stabilizer bar 117 restricts the rotation, stabilizes the rotation, and avoids violent shaking. This reduces the collision between the mixing rod 106 and other parts in the mixing cylinder 103 and the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 103, and maintains the stability of the mixing. This allows the feed to be mixed smoothly and orderly, avoiding unnecessary agitation that affects the mixing effect.
[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, two rotating shafts 112 are rotatably mounted on the mixing cylinder 103, and a small gear 122 is fixedly mounted on each of the two rotating shafts 112. The two rotating shafts 112 mesh with each other.
[0031] Specifically, the two door panels 111 are mounted on the pivot 112, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the end of the rotating shaft 112 near the baffle 110 is provided with a groove, an inclined surface, and an arc surface. The groove cooperates with the baffle 110. When the two door plates 111 seal the lower opening of the mixing cylinder 103, the door plate 111 and the baffle 110 form a plane, preventing feed from entering the gap and thus avoiding long-term residue, deterioration, and quality impact. The area where the door plate 111 contacts the baffle 110 is also provided with an outer arc surface, while the corresponding position of the baffle 110 is provided with an inner arc surface, i.e. Figure 6 In the indicated state, when the two door panels 111 on the baffle 110 rotate, they maintain contact through the rotational contact of the outer and inner curved surfaces, avoiding large gaps. The curved surfaces of the door panels 111 are designed to ensure that the door panels 111 do not interfere with the baffle 110 when rotating. When the door panels 111 are fully opened, the inclined surfaces on the two door panels 111 contact each other, thus supporting each other.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, an electric cylinder 118 is fixedly installed on the mixing cylinder 103. A front connecting rod 119 is rotatably arranged at the output end of the electric cylinder 118. A rear connecting rod 120 is rotatably arranged on the front connecting rod 119. A connecting shaft 121 is fixedly arranged on the rear connecting rod 120. The connecting shaft 121 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 112.
[0033] Specifically, when the door panel 111 needs to be opened, the electric cylinder 118 is activated. The output end of the electric cylinder 118 controls the front connecting rod 119 to move downward. The front connecting rod 119 pushes the rear connecting rod 120 to rotate around the axis of the connecting shaft 121. Since the rear connecting rod 120, the connecting shaft 121 and the rotating shaft 112 are fixedly connected, the connecting shaft 121 drives the rotating shaft 112 to rotate. The small gear 122 on the rotating shaft 112 meshes with another small gear 122, driving the two rotating shafts 112 and the small gears 122 to rotate, thereby realizing that the two door panels 111 each rotate around the axis of a rotating shaft 112, thus realizing the opening of the lower port of the mixing cylinder 103.
[0034] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a mounting shaft 123 is fixedly installed on the mixing rod 106, and an internal cavity is provided on the connecting cylinder 108. The mounting shaft 123 is located in the internal cavity of the connecting cylinder 108 and is rotatably connected to the connecting cylinder 108. A torsion spring 124 is fixedly installed on the mixing rod 106 and is placed in the internal cavity of the connecting cylinder 108 and is fixedly connected to the connecting cylinder 108.
[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, the guide plate 109 and the mixing rod 106 are collinear and have a certain angle. Therefore, when the mixing shaft 105 drives the mixing rod 106 to rotate, the mixing rod 106 drives the guide plate 109 to rotate on the mixing cylinder 103 via the connecting cylinder 108. One end of the guide plate 109 contacts the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 103, and the other end faces the outer edge of the clinker threaded disc 107 but does not contact it, leaving a certain gap. Figure 3 In the indicated state, when the mixing shaft 105 rotates clockwise, the guide plate 109 pushes the feed in front into the central area where the clinker threaded disc 107 is located. The clinker threaded disc 107 drives the feed upward. When the guide plate 109, which is located near the position between the two clinker threaded discs 107, moves, the end that was originally in contact with the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 103 moves closer to the other clinker threaded disc 107, but does not make contact. When the two guide plates 109 on both sides push the feed towards the baffle 110, the feed on both sides comes into contact with and is squeezed against each other above the baffle 110. The feed enters the clinker threaded discs 107 on both sides without interference or generating significant resistance that would affect the movement of the guide plate 109.
[0036] When the feed pushed by the guide plate 109 is too tightly connected, the torsion spring 124 provides cushioning. The resistance of the feed pushes the guide plate 109, causing the connecting cylinder 108 to rotate on the mixing rod 106 and the mounting shaft 123, thus twisting the torsion spring 124. This allows some feed to pass through the gaps between the guide plate 109, the feed threaded disc 107, and the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 103. This reduces the amount of feed pushed and increases the mixing time. The guide plate 109 pushes the feed multiple times to accommodate feeds of different viscosities, preventing excessive stress on parts from affecting their service life.
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the mixing cylinder 103 is provided with two mixing rods 106, which are in contact with the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 103 and are staggered.
[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, when the two mixing rods 106 rotate, they will not interfere with each other due to their staggered arrangement, thus avoiding collisions between the two mixing rods 106.
[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
