Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of feed mixing technology, specifically relating to a feed bucket mixing device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, feed is a general term for the food consumed by all domesticated animals. Feed includes more than ten varieties of feed ingredients such as soybeans, soybean meal, corn, fishmeal, amino acids, miscellaneous meals, additives, whey powder, oils, meat and bone meal, grains, and sweet sorghum. Unlike subsistence livestock farming, animal husbandry is characterized by centralization, large-scale production, and profit-driven objectives. It is a crucial link in the exchange of materials between humans and nature, and a component of agriculture, ranking alongside crop farming as one of the two pillars of agricultural production. Feed used in animal husbandry is generally mixed using mixing devices, so the performance of these devices directly impacts the productivity and quality of the finished feed product.

[0003] When existing mixing devices are used to mix feed with high moisture content and stickiness, a lot of feed usually sticks to the inner wall of the mixing tank, resulting in a decrease in the final feed output. Furthermore, after long-term use, the large area of ​​feed sticking to the inner wall of the mixing tank increases the probability of mold growth, causing the animals to get sick and thus reducing economic benefits. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This utility model provides a feed bucket mixing device, which aims to solve the problem that when existing mixing devices are used to mix feed with high moisture content and stickiness, a lot of feed usually adheres to the inner wall of the mixing bucket, resulting in a decrease in the final feed output. Furthermore, after long-term use, the large area of ​​feed adhering to the inner wall of the mixing bucket increases the probability of mold growth, causing the raised animals to get sick, and thus reducing economic benefits.

[0005] This utility model provides a feed bucket mixing device, including a support frame, a mixing bucket on the support frame, a feed inlet on the upper side of the mixing bucket, a discharge outlet on the bottom side of the mixing bucket, a motor on the top of the mixing bucket, a drive shaft rotatably mounted inside the mixing bucket, the top of the drive shaft being connected to the motor, and a plurality of mixing blades mounted on the drive shaft.

[0006] Furthermore, the stirring blade includes a left convex blade and a right convex blade, which are integrally formed.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the left convex blade and the right convex blade are integrally formed to form a centrally symmetrical curved surface structure. When the drive shaft rotates, the left convex blade and the right convex blade can form different contact surfaces to contact the feed, break up the clumps of feed caused by wet stickiness, improve the mixing efficiency, and avoid the risk of breakage of traditional split welded blades. At the same time, it reduces feed residue at the joints and improves the mixing efficiency and structural life.

[0008] Furthermore, the stirring blade has several ball grooves on one side of the inner wall of the stirring tank, and a movable ball is provided inside the ball groove. A scraper is fixed to one side of the movable ball facing the inner wall of the stirring tank.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the movable ball is made of stainless steel and its diameter is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the ball groove, so that it can roll freely in the ball groove. When the stirring blade rotates, the movable ball slides outward under the action of centrifugal force, causing the scraper to stick tightly to the inner wall of the mixing tank. If it encounters unevenness of the inner wall or resistance from residual feed, the movable ball can adaptively adjust its position to avoid the rigid scraper getting stuck. This structure realizes dynamic scraping and effectively removes wet and sticky feed adhering to the inner wall.

[0010] Furthermore, the scraper is made of an elastic material and is in contact with the inner wall of the mixing tank.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the scraper is made of corrosion-resistant rubber or silicone material. The elastic scraper undergoes slight deformation when it is in contact with the inner wall, which can not only scrape off feed residue, but also avoid the metal scraper from rubbing against the barrel wall to generate debris that contaminates the feed.

[0012] Furthermore, there are gaps between some of the scrapers.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the gap between adjacent scrapers is 10-15mm and they are staggered along the length of the mixing blade. The gap allows some scraped feed to pass through, avoiding the accumulation of scrapers and the formation of blockage points, while maintaining a continuous scraping effect.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. This utility model uses a left convex blade and a right convex blade to form a centrally symmetrical curved surface structure. When the drive shaft rotates, the left convex blade and the right convex blade can form different contact surfaces to contact the feed, breaking up the clumps caused by the wet stickiness of the feed and improving the mixing efficiency.

[0016] 2. This utility model, through the design of the scraper, allows the elastic scraper to undergo slight deformation when it adheres to the inner wall. This not only removes feed residue but also prevents the metal scraper from rubbing against the barrel wall and generating debris that contaminates the feed. This greatly improves the cleanliness of the entire mixing tank, effectively reduces mold growth, increases economic efficiency, and increases feed output.

[0017] 3. With the arrangement of the movable ball and the movable groove, when the stirring blade rotates, the movable ball slides outward under the action of centrifugal force, causing the scraper to stick tightly to the inner wall of the mixing tank. If it encounters unevenness of the inner wall or resistance from residual feed, the movable ball can adaptively adjust its position to avoid the rigid scraper getting stuck. This structure realizes dynamic scraping and effectively removes wet and sticky feed adhering to the inner wall.

[0018] Other features and advantages of this invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and will be apparent in part from the description, or may be learned by practicing the invention. The objects and other advantages of this invention can be realized and obtained by means of the structures particularly pointed out in the description and the drawings. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals in the drawings represent the same components. It should be noted that the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-6 This utility model embodiment proposes a feed bucket mixing device, including a support 1, a mixing bucket 2 on the support 1, a feed inlet 3 on the upper side of the mixing bucket 2, a discharge outlet 4 on the bottom side of the mixing bucket 2, a motor 5 on the top of the mixing bucket 2, a drive shaft 6 rotatably mounted inside the mixing bucket 2, the top of the drive shaft 6 being connected to the motor 5, and a plurality of mixing blades 7 mounted on the drive shaft 6.

[0029] Reference Figure 1-6 The mixing blade 7 includes a left convex blade 71 and a right convex blade 72. The left convex blade 71 and the right convex blade 72 are integrally formed to form a centrally symmetrical curved surface structure. When the drive shaft 6 rotates, the left convex blade 71 and the right convex blade 72 can form different contact surfaces to contact the feed, break up the clumps of feed caused by wet stickiness, and improve the mixing efficiency. The integral molding design avoids the risk of breakage of traditional split welded blades, while reducing feed residue at the joints, improving mixing efficiency and structural life.

[0030] Reference Figure 1-6 The mixing blade 7 has several ball grooves 73 on one side of the inner wall of the mixing tank 2. Inside the ball grooves 73 are movable balls 74. A scraper 75 is fixed to one side of the movable balls 74 facing the inner wall of the mixing tank 2. The movable balls 74 are made of stainless steel and have a diameter slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the ball grooves 73, so that they can roll freely in the ball grooves 73. When the mixing blade 7 rotates, the movable balls 74 slide outward under the action of centrifugal force, causing the scraper 75 to stick tightly to the inner wall of the mixing tank 2. If the inner wall is uneven or there is resistance from residual feed, the movable balls 74 can adaptively adjust their position to avoid the rigid scraper 75 getting stuck. This structure realizes dynamic scraping and effectively removes wet and sticky feed adhering to the inner wall.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-6 The scraper 75 is made of elastic material and is attached to the inner wall of the mixing tank 2. The scraper 75 is made of corrosion-resistant rubber or silicone material. When the elastic scraper 75 is attached to the inner wall, it will deform slightly, which can not only scrape off feed residue, but also avoid the metal scraper 75 from rubbing against the tank wall to generate debris that contaminates the feed.

[0032] Reference Figure 1-6There are gaps between several scrapers 75, with a gap of 10-15mm between adjacent scrapers 75, and they are staggered along the length of the mixing blade 7. The gaps allow some scraped feed to pass through, preventing the scrapers 75 from accumulating and forming blockages, while maintaining a continuous scraping effect.

[0033] The specific implementation method is as follows: When in use, the feed is poured into the mixing tank 2 through the feed inlet 3, the motor 5 is started, and the mixing blade 7 rotates to mix the feed. During the mixing process, the scraper 75 is in contact with the inner wall of the mixing tank 2, which can scrape off the feed adhering to the inner wall of the mixing tank 2, so that the feed falls off and the inner wall of the mixing tank 2 is kept clean. After the mixing tank 2 is opened, the feed can be discharged from the discharge port 4.

[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
