[0002] This utility model relates to the technical field of adjustable peanut storage feeding equipment. Its main function is to achieve rapid and efficient transfer of peanuts inside storage tanks or externally stacked peanuts through suction and conveying. This type of equipment typically employs structures such as vacuum suction machines, screw conveyors, or mobile belt conveyors, allowing for flexible adjustment of the inlet height and conveying direction to adapt to the needs of different sites and storage containers. The equipment is of moderate size, easy to move and operate, and can be flexibly deployed according to the actual storage volume and operating environment. It is suitable for both daily transfers in small peanut processing plants and localized feeding needs in large storage warehouses. Through automated suction or conveying, manual handling is greatly reduced, work efficiency is improved, and damage and loss of peanuts during handling are reduced.

[0003] This small-to-medium-sized, adjustable feeding equipment is of great significance. First, it enhances the automation level of peanut storage and transportation, improves the working environment, reduces labor intensity, and lowers labor costs. Second, its flexibility and adjustability allow it to adapt to changing production and storage scenarios, improving the utilization rate of storage space and the timeliness of transportation, thus helping to ensure peanut quality and smooth subsequent processing. Furthermore, automated feeding reduces the impact of human operation on food safety, facilitates standardized and regulated management of peanut storage, and provides strong support for the modernization and large-scale development of the peanut industry.

Start the feeding motor 7; the main shaft 4 drives the auger blades 5 to rotate, starting to draw peanuts from the bottom into the feeding pipe 1. Simultaneously, start the blower 9; the negative pressure air supply structure creates airflow assistance within the feeding pipe 1, allowing the peanuts to be smoothly conveyed upwards, improving feeding efficiency and reducing blockages. The peanuts are conveyed to the upper end of the feeding pipe 1 by the auger blades 5 and the airflow, and enter the storage tank or designated container through the discharge port 2. During the feeding process, operators need to regularly check the overflow pipe 3 to ensure it is unobstructed and prevent blockages caused by excessive material. The protective cage 8 (metal mesh cage) prevents foreign objects from entering the feeding pipe 1, ensuring the safety of equipment and personnel. The air filter hood 10 of the blower 9 needs to be cleaned regularly to prevent dust and impurities from affecting the air supply effect.
