Technical Field

[0002] In some feed production processes, heating is required for better dispersion and mixing. Therefore, heating is often necessary during mixing, and feed heating tanks are devices specifically designed to heat feed.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent application number CN 201520378650.X discloses a heated feed trough, including a trough body, a feed holding part at the upper part of the trough body, a heating device at the lower part of the trough body, a temperature sensor on one side of the feed holding part, and a temperature display at the top of the trough body, with the temperature sensor connected to the temperature display.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that the following technical defects exist and require improvement:

[0005] In common feed heating tanks, most of the feed is piled up inside the tank during operation, and the heat is mainly conducted through the inner wall of the tank. The feed wrapped in the middle and top has less contact time and probability with the inner wall of the tank, which is not conducive to uniform heating of the feed and results in uneven heating.
