Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feed extrusion technology, specifically a high-efficiency extruder for poultry and livestock feed. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, poultry and livestock are usually fed with feed. During the feed processing, an expander is needed to expand the feed. The expander, also known as a feed expander or feed extruder, is a piece of equipment used to produce animal feed. It expands the feed by mixing feed powder with water or steam and then extruding and heating it, which also changes the texture and taste of the feed.
[0003] In existing technologies, when using extruders to process feed, raw materials are usually poured into the extruder from the feed hopper. However, because the raw materials are prone to becoming damp and sticky after contact with moisture, the feed hopper is prone to blockage, which affects the normal processing of feed and reduces feed production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] This utility model relates to a high-efficiency extruder for poultry and livestock feed, which includes a base plate and an anti-clogging mechanism provided on the top of the base plate.
[0006] The anti-clogging mechanism includes a feed pipe, a feed hopper fixedly connected to the top of the feed pipe, an installation ring provided on the outer side of the top of the feed hopper, multiple sets of annularly distributed connecting rods fixedly connected to the inner side of the installation ring, an installation block fixedly connected to one end of each connecting rod, a drive motor fixedly connected to the middle of the top wall of the installation block, a feeding auger fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor, U-shaped plates fixedly connected to both the front and rear walls of the outer side of the installation ring, screws threadedly connected to the middle of each U-shaped plate, and arc-shaped clamps rotatably connected to one end of each set of screws.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the feeding auger is rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom wall of the mounting block, and the bottom of the feeding auger is located inside the feed pipe.
[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the arc-shaped clamping plates are located on the front and rear sides of the outer periphery of the feed hopper, and a pad block is fixedly connected to the left side of the top center of the bottom plate.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the screws are all slidably connected through and slidably connected to the inside of the through holes, which are respectively located in the middle of the front and rear walls of the mounting ring.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the pad is fixedly connected to the puffing body, and a driving component is provided at the left end of the puffing body.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the feed pipe passes through and is fixedly connected to the left side of the middle part of the top wall of the feeding assembly, and the feeding assembly is located on the top left side of the extruder body.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, support rods are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom wall of the base plate, and the inner diameter of the feed pipe is larger than the diameter of the feeding auger.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] 1. This type of high-efficiency extruder for poultry and livestock feed, when the high-efficiency extruder is needed, moves the mounting ring to the outer side of the top of the feed hopper and rotates the front and rear screws.

[0022] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0023] Example: Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a high-efficiency extruder for poultry and livestock feed, which includes a base plate 1 and an anti-clogging mechanism 2 on the top of the base plate 1.
[0024] The anti-clogging mechanism 2 includes a feed pipe 6, with a feed hopper 7 fixedly connected to the top of the feed pipe 6. An installation ring 8 is provided on the outer side of the top of the feed hopper 7. The feed pipe 6 and the feed hopper 7 cooperate to allow the material to enter the feeding assembly 5. The material can be fed into the extruder body 3 for processing through the conveying of the feeding assembly 5. Multiple sets of annularly distributed connecting rods 13 are fixedly connected to the inner side of the installation ring 8. An installation block 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rods 13. A drive motor 15 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top wall of the installation block 14. The operation of the drive motor 15 can cause the bottom feeding auger 16 to rotate, thereby conveying the material. The output end of the drive motor 15 is fixedly connected to the feeding auger 16. U-shaped plates 9 are fixedly connected to the front and rear walls of the outer side of the installation ring 8. Screws 10 are threadedly connected to the middle of the U-shaped plates 9. Arc-shaped clamps 12 are rotatably connected to one end of each set of screws 10. Rotating the screws 10 can cause the screws 10 to move inside the U-shaped plates 9, thereby driving the arc-shaped clamps 12 to move synchronously.
[0025] The feeding auger 16 is rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom wall of the mounting block 14. The bottom of the feeding auger 16 is located inside the feed pipe 6. The arc-shaped clamping plates 12 are located on the front and rear sides of the outer periphery of the feed hopper 7. A pad block 18 is fixedly connected to the left side of the top center of the bottom plate 1. The pad block 18 serves to connect and fix the bottom plate 1 and the expander body 3. The two sets of arc-shaped clamping plates 12 are close to each other and can clamp the feed hopper 7, thereby installing and fixing the mounting ring 8.
[0026] All screws 10 are slidably connected to the inside of the through holes 11. The through holes 11 are respectively located in the middle of the front and rear walls of the mounting ring 8. The top of the pad 18 is fixedly connected to the puffer body 3. The left end of the puffer body 3 is provided with the drive component 4. The drive component 4 is a component that comes with the puffer body 3 and belongs to the prior art, so it will not be described in detail.
[0027] The feed pipe 6 passes through and is fixedly connected to the left side of the middle of the top wall of the feeding assembly 5. The feeding assembly 5 is located on the top left side of the extruder body 3. Support rods 17 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom wall of the bottom plate 1. The inner diameter of the feed pipe 6 is larger than the diameter of the feeding auger 16. The support rods 17 serve to support and fix the bottom plate 1 and its top assembly.
[0028] Working principle: When the high-efficiency expander is needed, the mounting ring 8 is moved to the outer side of the top of the feed hopper 7, and then the front and rear screws 10 are rotated. During the rotation of the screws 10, the arc-shaped clamps 12 on the front and rear sides move closer to each other. Under the action of the two sets of arc-shaped clamps 12, the feed hopper 7 is clamped, so that the anti-blocking mechanism 2 at the top of the mounting ring 8 is installed with the feed hopper 7. After the anti-blocking mechanism 2 is installed, the feeding auger 16 is inserted into the feed pipe 6. The drive motor 15 is started, and the output shaft of the drive motor 15 rotates to make the feeding auger 16 rotate, thereby applying a downward thrust to the material inside the feed hopper 7, so that it can smoothly pass through the feed pipe 6 and enter the feeding assembly 5, reducing the possibility of blockage.
