[0024] Specifically, the cooling component 4 includes a cooling structure 41, a cooling box 42, a mounting bracket 43, and a connecting ring 44. The mounting bracket 43 is fixed to the bottom of the concentration tank 1, and the cooling box 42 is connected to the lower end of the mounting bracket 43. The cooling structure 41 is installed inside the cooling box 42, and the connecting ring 44 is installed at the upper and lower ends of the cooling box 42 corresponding to the positions of the raw material outlet 3.

[0025] By adopting the above technical solution, the cooling box 42 is installed through the mounting frame 43, the raw material outlet 3 passes through the connecting ring 44, and the cooling structure 41 can cool it down, so that the feed additives inside can be cooled down quickly.

[0026] Specifically, the cooling structure 41 includes an inlet pipe 411, an outlet pipe 413, and a spiral tube 414. The spiral tube 414 is located inside the cooling chamber 42 and outside the raw material outlet 3. The upper end of the spiral tube 414 is connected to the inlet pipe 411, and the lower end of the spiral tube 414 is connected to the outlet pipe 413.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, the coolant enters the spiral tube 414 through the inlet pipe 411, flows in the spiral tube 414, and is then discharged through the outlet pipe 413, which can conveniently cool and heat the raw material in the raw material outlet 3.

[0028] Specifically, the cooling structure 41 also includes an annular heat-conducting plate 412 and a heat-conducting pad 415. The annular heat-conducting plate 412 is disposed inside the cooling box 42 and inside the spiral tube 414, and the heat-conducting pad 415 is attached to the surface of the annular heat-conducting plate 412.

[0029] By adopting the above technical solution, the annular heat-conducting plate 412 and the heat-conducting pad 415 can be used to connect the spiral tube 414 to the raw material outlet 3, resulting in better heat transfer and heat exchange effects.

[0030] In this embodiment, feed additives are added to the concentration tank 1 through the raw material inlet 8. The stirring structure 6 and heating structure 7 between the two sets of baffles 2 are activated to heat and stir the raw material. The concentrated additives are discharged through the raw material outlet 3. The cooling box 42 is installed through the mounting bracket 43. The raw material outlet 3 passes through the connecting ring 44, and the cooling structure 41 can cool it down, allowing the feed additives inside to cool down quickly. The coolant enters the spiral tube 414 through the inlet pipe 411, flows in the spiral tube 414, and is then discharged through the outlet pipe 413. This facilitates the cooling and heat exchange of the raw material in the raw material outlet 3. The annular heat-conducting plate 412 and the heat-conducting pad 415 work together to connect the spiral tube 414 and the raw material outlet 3, resulting in better heat transfer and heat exchange effects.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the heat insulation component 5 includes a heat insulation box 51, a protective plate 52, a heat insulation cavity 53, and a heat insulation structure 54. The heat insulation box 51 is connected to the inner surface of the concentration tank 1 and the surface of the baffle 2. The protective plate 52 is installed on the surface of the heat insulation box 51. A heat insulation cavity 53 is formed inside the heat insulation box 51, and a heat insulation structure 54 is installed inside the heat insulation cavity 53.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the heat insulation structure 54 in the heat insulation cavity 53 inside the heat insulation box 51 can play a heat insulation and heat preservation effect, which can reduce the loss of heat, thereby avoiding the temperature rise of the outer surface of the concentration tank 1 and making it safer. The protective plate 52 can protect the heat insulation box 51.

[0034] Specifically, the thermal insulation structure 54 includes a foam plastic layer 541 and a vacuum insulation panel 542. The thermal insulation cavity 53 is filled with the foam plastic layer 541, and the vacuum insulation panel 542 is installed inside the foam plastic layer 541.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, the foam plastic layer 541 and vacuum insulation board 542 filled in the heat insulation cavity 53 can achieve triple heat insulation effect and have a good heat preservation effect.

[0036] In this embodiment, the heat insulation structure 54 in the heat insulation cavity 53 inside the heat insulation box 51 can achieve the effect of heat insulation and heat preservation, which can reduce the loss of heat and thus prevent the temperature of the outer surface of the concentration tank 1 from rising, thus improving safety. The protective plate 52 can protect the heat insulation box 51. The foam plastic layer 541 and the vacuum heat insulation plate 542 filled in the heat insulation cavity 53 can achieve a triple heat insulation effect, resulting in good heat preservation.

[0037] The structure and working principle of the stirring structure 6, which consists of a drive shaft, a driven shaft, stirring blades, elastic levers, a drive motor, a first gear, and a second gear, and the heating structure 7, which consists of an inlet, an outlet, and a serpentine heat transfer tube, have been disclosed in a feed additive concentration device disclosed in Chinese patent application number 202421341619.4. The working principle of the stirring structure 6 is that the drive motor works, causing it to drive the drive shaft to rotate. Under the meshing transmission of the two first gears and the second gear, the driven shaft rotates synchronously. Then, the stirring blades fully agitate the raw materials in the concentration tank 1. When the drive shaft rotates, it drives the elastic levers to rotate. The elastic levers sweep the U-shaped groove of the serpentine heat transfer tube, preventing a large amount of raw materials from accumulating in the U-shaped groove of the serpentine heat transfer tube. The working principle of the heating structure 7 is that hot air is continuously supplied from the inlet. The hot air flows in the serpentine heat transfer tube to heat the moving raw materials.

[0038] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When using this utility model, feed additives are added to the concentration tank 1 through the raw material inlet 8. The stirring structure 6 and heating structure 7 between the two sets of baffles 2 are activated to heat and stir the raw material. The concentrated additives are discharged through the raw material outlet 3. The cooling box 42 is installed via the mounting bracket 43. The raw material outlet 3 passes through the connecting ring 44, and the cooling structure 41 can cool it, rapidly cooling the feed additives inside. The coolant enters the spiral tube 414 through the inlet pipe 411, flows within the spiral tube 414, and then exits through the outlet pipe. The discharge of material 413 facilitates cooling and heat exchange of the raw material in the raw material outlet 3. The annular heat-conducting plate 412 and the heat-conducting pad 415 work together to connect the spiral tube 414 to the raw material outlet 3, resulting in better heat transfer and heat exchange. The heat insulation structure 54 in the heat insulation cavity 53 inside the heat insulation box 51 can provide heat insulation and reduce heat loss, thereby preventing the temperature of the outer surface of the concentration tank 1 from rising and ensuring higher safety. The protective plate 52 can protect the heat insulation box 51. The foam plastic layer 541 and the vacuum heat insulation plate 542 filled in the heat insulation cavity 53 can provide triple heat insulation and better heat preservation.
