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.

[0042] Reference Figures 1 to 7This utility model provides an embodiment of a material sterilization device for feed additive production, comprising a processing shell 1, which serves as the outer shell 6 of the entire device, providing structural support and protection for internal components. A rotating cover 2 is rotatably connected to the top of the processing shell 1; this rotatable cover facilitates internal maintenance and cleaning while providing a seal to prevent external contaminants from entering. A stirring assembly providing rotational capability is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating cover 2, driven by a motor 3. The stirring assembly is responsible for uniformly mixing the various components of the feed additive.

Elastic components providing stored elasticity, including sliding columns 7 and springs 8, are slidably connected to the inner walls of the multiple outer shells 6, providing a certain amount of stored elasticity to help the scraper 9 effectively scrape the material, preventing the material from adhering to the inner walls of the outer shells 6, and improving sterilization and mixing efficiency. A scraper 9 is fixedly connected to the outside of the elastic component. By contacting the inner wall of the outer shell 6, the scraper 9 effectively scrapes away residual material, ensuring full utilization and uniform mixing of the material. A stirring roller 10 is fixedly connected to the outside of both outer shells 6, working in conjunction with the stirring component to enhance the stirring effect of the material and ensure that the feed additive is uniformly mixed during processing. A connecting ring 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the stirring component, connecting the stirring component to the air inlet pipe 19, ensuring gas flow and exchange, and providing the necessary gas environment for the sterilization process.

[0043] The mixing assembly includes a motor 3, which provides the power source to drive the entire mixing assembly and ensure thorough mixing of materials. The bottom of motor 3 is fixedly connected to the top of rotating cover 2. A rotating tube 23 is fixedly connected to the output end of motor 3, serving as a gas transmission channel. Air transmission holes 4 on the inner wall allow gas to enter the mixing area, helping to improve sterilization efficiency. Multiple air transmission holes 4 are provided on the inner wall of rotating tube 23. The elastic assembly includes a sliding column 7, which is slidably connected to the inner wall of outer shell 6. A spring 8 is fixedly connected to the outside of sliding column 7, and the other end of spring 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of outer shell 6. A feed pipe 12 is fixedly connected to the outside of processing shell 1 for feeding raw materials into processing shell 1. The design must ensure smooth flow of raw materials and have a certain degree of sealing to prevent dust leakage. A feed box 13 is fixedly connected to the top of feed pipe 12, serving as a raw material storage and distribution device, controlling the inflow rate of raw materials to ensure the continuity and stability of production. The feed box 13 is externally fixedly connected to a feeding assembly that provides rotation capability, including a motor 14 and a feeding roller 15, which is responsible for outputting the processed material from the feed box 13 to ensure the smooth transfer of the product.

[0044] The feeding assembly includes a second motor 14, which is externally fixed to the outside of the feeding box 13. A feeding roller 15 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 14, and the other end of the feeding roller 15 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the feeding box 13. Two fixed blocks 16 are fixedly connected to the bottom of both ends of the processing shell 1, providing stable support, ensuring the sliding and positioning of the sealing plate 17, and preventing material leakage during processing. The sealing plate 17 is slidably connected to the inner walls of the two fixed blocks 16, adjusting the pressure and airtightness inside the processing shell 1, preventing external air from entering and affecting the sterilization effect. A fixed plate 22 is fixedly connected to the outside of the processing shell 1, providing additional support and stability, ensuring the stability of the entire device during operation.

An air inlet pipe 19 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the connecting ring 11, connecting to the air storage box 20, providing high-temperature gas for the processing process. A gas storage tank 20 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the air inlet pipe 19 to store and regulate gas pressure, ensuring a stable gas supply during processing. A connecting pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the outside of the gas storage tank 20 to discharge or recycle the sterilized gas, ensuring a safe and hygienic working environment.

[0045] Working principle: The operator feeds the material into the feed box 13, and simultaneously starts motor 14 to drive the feed roller 15 to rotate, so that the material enters the processing shell 1 in an orderly manner. This prevents the material from accumulating at the bend of the feed pipe 12 during material transfer and thus preventing it from entering the processing shell 1. When the material enters the processing shell 1, motor 3 is started to drive the rotating pipe 23 to rotate, connecting the connecting ring 11 to the air inlet pipe 19. The connecting pipe 21 is connected to the external instrument that transmits high-temperature water vapor. When the material adheres to the inner wall of the processing shell 1, it is scraped off the inner wall of the processing shell 1. The connecting shaft 5 drives the outer shell 6, which in turn drives the scraper 9 via the spring 8 and the sliding column 7 to stir the material. While stirring, high-temperature steam is transmitted through the rotating pipe 23 connected to the air inlet pipe 19. The air transmission holes 4 on the inner wall of the rotating pipe 23 can spray high-temperature gas onto the feed inside for uniform sterilization while the stirring roller 10 is stirring. After sterilization, the high-temperature gas is stopped, the motor 3 is turned off, the rotating pipe 23 stops rotating, and the material accumulates inside the processing shell 1. When the internal temperature of the machine has completely cooled down or reached a safe temperature, the closing plate 17 is pulled to collect the material for subsequent manual drying.

[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
