Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, specifically to an automated poultry feed mixing device. Background Technology

[0002] Poultry feed is a specially formulated diet material designed to provide nutrition for farmed poultry. It typically consists of grains (corn, wheat, barley, etc.), protein sources (soybean meal, fishmeal, etc.), vitamins, minerals, and additives. Its purpose is to meet the nutritional needs of poultry at different growth stages, promoting healthy growth and high productivity. Furthermore, during the feeding process, feed mixing devices are used to precisely mix the various ingredients according to preset ratios, ensuring that the feed formulation meets nutritional requirements, improving production efficiency, reducing waste, and guaranteeing feed quality stability.

[0003] Patent CN211020948U discloses a feed mixing device for breeding ducks, comprising a shell, multiple support rods fixedly connected to the lower end of the shell, a discharge port at the lower end of the shell, and two symmetrically connected feed hoppers at the upper end of the shell. A guide port is provided between the feed hoppers and the shell. A uniform feeding mechanism is installed inside the feed hoppers, and a stirring mechanism is installed inside the shell. This invention features a reasonable structural design, ensuring uniform feed feeding and controlling the feed feeding speed through the guide plate. This facilitates feed mixing and improves the mixing effect, thus better supporting the feeding of breeding ducks.

[0004] Based on existing solutions and practical applications, current poultry feed mixing devices still have some problems. For example, when mixing feed, it is difficult to ensure the accuracy of each mixing, which can lead to inaccurate proportions, affecting the nutritional balance of the feed and wasting raw materials. At the same time, when mixing feed, it may be difficult to fully mix the raw materials, resulting in uneven feed composition, which affects subsequent feeding and storage. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automated poultry feed proportioning device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Currently, when proportioning feed, it is difficult to ensure the accuracy of each proportion, which leads to inaccurate mixing ratios and waste of raw materials. At the same time, when proportioning feed, it may be difficult to mix the raw materials, resulting in uneven feed composition, which in turn affects subsequent feeding and storage.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automated poultry feed proportioning device, comprising:

[0007] A mixing chamber has an installation groove fixedly installed on its top. A stirring assembly is installed inside the mixing chamber. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the middle position inside the installation groove. A rotating disk is fixedly installed on the top of the rotating rod. The diameter of the rotating disk is the same as the diameter of the installation groove. A dispensing assembly is installed inside the installation groove. A shielding assembly is also installed inside the installation groove.

[0008] Preferably, the stirring assembly includes a mounting plate, stirring rods, a first gear, and a first motor. The mounting plate is fixedly installed on the inner top of the mixing chamber. The stirring rods are rotatably connected to the mounting plate in an array. The first gears are fixedly installed on the upper end of the stirring rods, and the first gears mesh with each other. The first motor is fixedly installed at the middle position of the top of the mixing chamber, and the output end of the first motor is fixed together with the stirring rod at the middle position of the mounting plate.

[0009] Preferably, the batching assembly includes a hopper, a first control valve, a second gear, a third gear, a second motor, a measuring cylinder, and a second control valve. The hoppers are fixedly mounted in an array on the rotating disc, and the first control valve is fixedly mounted at the lower end of each hopper. The second gear is fixedly mounted on the shaft of the rotating rod.

A measuring cylinder is fixedly mounted at the left end of the top of the mixing chamber, and the second control valve is fixedly mounted at the lower end of the measuring cylinder. The second control valve is connected to the mixing chamber.

[0010] Preferably, the measuring cylinder has graduations printed on its surface, and the measuring cylinder and the hopper are arranged in a corresponding manner.

[0011] Preferably, the shielding assembly includes a guide tube, a guide rod, and an electric push rod. The guide tube is slidably connected to the left end of the bottom of the mounting groove. The guide rod is fixedly installed at both ends of the guide tube and is slidably connected to the mounting groove. The electric push rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting groove, and the output end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the right end of the guide tube.

[0012] Preferably, the guide tube is arranged in a corresponding manner to the hopper, and the inner diameter of the guide tube is the same as the outer diameter of the measuring cylinder.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This automated poultry feed proportioning device can ensure accurate feed ratio through the cooperation between the hopper and the measuring cylinder, so as to meet the nutritional components at different stages and reduce the waste of raw materials, thereby ensuring that the nutritional components of each batch of feed are consistent. At the same time, by shielding the first control valve, dust generated during the feeding process can be reduced and foreign objects can be reduced from entering the feed inlet. Then, by rotating the stirring rod, different raw materials can be fully combined to achieve a uniform mixing effect and avoid the sedimentation and clumping of raw materials, thereby improving feed quality.

[0014] 1. The system is equipped with a mixing bin, mounting slot, rotating disc, hopper, first control valve, second gear, third gear, second motor, measuring cylinder, and second control valve. The hoppers are arranged in an array on the rotating disc, corresponding to the measuring cylinder. The operation of the first control valve allows feed from the hoppers to enter the measuring cylinder. The measuring cylinder has graduations, allowing the feed level to be observed. The second control valve at the bottom of the measuring cylinder is connected to the mixing bin, allowing a fixed amount of feed to enter the mixing bin. The second and third gears on the rotating rod mesh with each other, and the output of the second motor is fixed to the third gear. The operation of the second motor drives the hoppers on the rotating disc to rotate, allowing for precise mixing based on actual conditions. The coordination between the hoppers and the measuring cylinder ensures accurate feed proportions, meeting the nutritional requirements at different stages, reducing raw material waste, and ensuring consistent nutritional composition in each batch of feed.

[0015] 2. The system is equipped with a hopper, a guide pipe, a guide rod, an electric push rod, and a measuring cylinder. The inner diameter of the guide pipe is the same as the outer diameter of the measuring cylinder. The operation of the electric push rod drives the guide pipe to slide at the bottom of the mounting groove. The guide pipe is positioned in a corresponding state with the hopper. The sliding of the guide pipe can cover the outside of the first control valve, thereby blocking the discharge of the first control valve. By blocking the first control valve, dust generated during the batching process can be reduced, and foreign objects can be reduced from entering the inlet, thus achieving more stable batching control.

[0016] 3. The system includes a mixing chamber, a mounting plate, stirring rods, a first gear, and a first motor. The output end of the first motor is fixed to the stirring rod in the middle position. The first gear is also fixed to the upper end of the stirring rod, and the gears mesh with each other. The stirring rods are arranged in an array on the mounting plate. The operation of the first motor and the meshing of the first gears drive the stirring rods to rotate synchronously, causing the left and right sets of stirring rods to rotate in opposite directions. This allows the stirring rods to fully combine different raw materials, achieving a uniform mixing effect and preventing sedimentation and clumping, thereby improving feed quality.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-6This utility model provides a technical solution: an automated poultry feed mixing device, comprising: a mixing bin 1, a mounting trough 2, a mounting plate 3, a stirring rod 4, a first gear 5, a first motor 6, a rotating rod 7, a rotating disc 8, a hopper 9, a first control valve 10, a second gear 11, a third gear 12, a second motor 13, a guide pipe 14, a guide rod 15, an electric push rod 16, a measuring cylinder 17, and a second control valve 18.

[0026] Example 1; please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 3 Appendix Figure 4 Appendix Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 As shown, when the feed is being proportioned, a mounting groove 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the mixing chamber 1, and a rotating rod 7 is rotatably connected to the middle position inside the mounting groove 2. A rotating disk 8 is also fixedly installed on the upper end of the rotating rod 7, and the diameter of the rotating disk 8 is the same as the diameter of the mounting groove 2. Then, hoppers 9 are fixedly installed in an array on the plate of the rotating disk 8, and a first control valve 10 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the hopper 9. When the feed is being proportioned, different feeds can be poured into the hopper 9 in sequence. At the same time, a measuring cylinder 17 is fixedly installed on the left end of the top of the mixing chamber 1, and a second control valve 18 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the measuring cylinder 17. The second control valve 18 is connected to the mixing chamber 1, and the measuring cylinder 17 is set in a corresponding state with the hopper 9.

[0027] When the feed inside the hopper 9 is transported to the mixing chamber 1 in a certain proportion, a guide pipe 14 is slidably connected to the left end of the bottom of the mounting groove 2, and guide rods 15 are fixedly installed at both ends of the guide pipe 14. The guide rods 15 are slidably connected to the mounting groove 2, and the guide pipe 14 is positioned corresponding to the hopper 9. The inner diameter of the guide pipe 14 is the same as the outer diameter of the measuring cylinder 17. An electric push rod 16 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the mounting groove 2, and the output end of the electric push rod 16 is fixed to the guide pipe 14. The controller controls the operation of the electric push rod 16, causing it to slide through the guide rods 15, sliding the guide pipe 14 to the outside of the measuring cylinder 17. The guide pipe 14 also slides to the outside of the first control valve 10, thus limiting the position of the hopper 9. The controller can then control the opening and closing of the first control valve 10, allowing the hopper 9 to move freely. The raw materials enter the measuring cylinder 17 through the guide tube 14. Since the measuring cylinder 17 has graduations and is transparent, the proportion of feed inside can be observed through the graduations. The amount of raw materials falling into the measuring cylinder 17 can be controlled according to the actual mixing ratio. Then, the controller controls the first control valve 10 to close and the second control valve 18 to open. Opening the second control valve 18 allows the raw materials inside the measuring cylinder 17 to enter the mixing chamber 1. After the raw materials are delivered to the mixing chamber 1, the controller can also control the electric push rod 16 to move, causing the guide tube 14 to descend. Since a second gear 11 is fixedly installed on the rod of the rotating rod 7, the second gear 11 meshes with the third gear 12. The output end of the second motor 13 is fixed to the rod of the third gear 12. The controller starts the second motor 13, which is then controlled by the controller. When the second motor 13 is in motion, the controller also controls the electric push rod 16, which in turn drives the guide tube 14 to rise. When the second motor 13 is running, the rotating rod 7 drives the rotating disk 8 to rotate at the top of the mounting groove 2. The rotation of the rotating disk 8 synchronously drives the hopper 9 to rotate. The rotation of the hopper 9 allows the first control valve 10 to be placed inside the guide tube 14, and the hopper 9 to correspond with the measuring cylinder 17. Then, the operation of the first control valve 10 and the second control valve 18 can be controlled in sequence to transport different raw materials inside the hopper 9 to the mixing chamber 1. The rotation of the hopper 9 and the measuring cylinder 17 can ensure accurate feed ratio and meet the nutritional requirements at different stages. At the same time, the guide tube 14 can reduce dust generated during the ratio process, thereby achieving more stable ratio control.

[0028] Example 2; please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 Appendix Figure 2 and attached Figure 3As shown, when the raw materials inside the hopper 9 are transported to the mixing chamber 1 in a certain proportion, the controller controls the first motor 6 to run. Since the top of the mixing chamber 1 is fixedly installed with an installation plate 3, and the plate body of the installation plate 3 is connected to the stirring rods 4 in an array, and the upper end of the stirring rods 4 is fixedly installed with the first gears 5, and the first gears 5 mesh with each other, and are also fixed together with the stirring rods 4 in the middle position of the installation plate 3 through the output end of the first motor 6. When the first motor 6 is running, it can drive the stirring rods 4 to rotate synchronously through the meshing of the first gears 5, and make the stirring rods 4 on the left and right sides of the installation plate 3 rotate in opposite directions. Thus, the rotation of the stirring rods 4 can fully combine different raw materials, so as to achieve a uniform mixing effect and avoid the sedimentation and clumping of raw materials.
