[0002] In the process of the rapid development of modern animal husbandry towards large-scale and intensive production, the scientific feeding of livestock and poultry is undoubtedly a crucial core element for ensuring the healthy growth of livestock and poultry and improving breeding efficiency.
[0003] In order to fully meet the precise nutritional needs of livestock and poultry at different growth stages, mixing various feed ingredients in a specific ratio before feeding has become a widely adopted standard operating procedure in the industry.
[0004] Most livestock and poultry finished feeds are in pellet form. When feeding feed pellets of different sizes and densities, traditional feed mixing and feeding devices use a single stirring method, which cannot effectively achieve uniform mixing of different feed pellets and cannot achieve consistency in multiple feedings. This will result in inconsistent feeding of livestock and poultry, and consequently, uneven growth of livestock and poultry. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problem that traditional feed mixing and feeding devices use a single stirring and mixing method, which cannot effectively achieve uniform mixing of different feed particles and cannot achieve consistency in multiple feedings, resulting in inconsistent feeding of livestock and poultry and consequently uneven growth, this utility model provides a feed mixing and feeding device.
[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] A feed mixing and feeding device includes a frame with a feed box on the upper part of the frame. The feed box is divided into several feed bins by several evenly spaced partitions. A threaded rod and a guide rod are rotatably mounted on the upper part of the feed box along the distribution direction of the partitions. A motor capable of driving the threaded rod to rotate is mounted on the feed box. A movable seat that is threadedly engaged with the threaded rod is slidably guided on the guide rod. A multi-bin raw material box is mounted on the movable seat. The bottom of each bin is connected to a discharge pipe, and the discharge pipe is equipped with a flow valve. A mixing device is connected to the bottom of each feed bin. The mixing device includes a mixing cylinder connected to the bottom of the feed bin, and a spiral blade is connected and installed inside the mixing cylinder. A feeding box is provided at the lower outlet of the mixing cylinder.
[0008] A further improvement of this utility model is that there are two guide rods, which are arranged symmetrically with respect to the threaded rod.
[0009] A further improvement of this utility model is that a second transmission wheel is installed at one end of the threaded rod, a first transmission wheel is installed at the output end of the motor, and a transmission belt is connected around the first transmission wheel and the second transmission wheel.
[0010] A further improvement of this utility model is that a guide hopper is installed between the upper part of the mixing cylinder and the bottom of the discharge bin.
[0011] A further improvement of this utility model is that a central shaft connected to the spiral blades is provided at the center line of the mixing cylinder, and a mixing fan blade rotatably connected to the central shaft is provided at the lower end of the mixing cylinder.
[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that a feeding pipe is connected to the bottom of the feeding box, and a shut-off valve is provided on the feeding pipe.
[0013] A further improvement of this utility model is that limit seats are installed at both ends of the guide rod to stop and limit the movement of the seat.
[0014] A further improvement of this utility model is that the limiting seat includes two rotatably connected limiting blocks, the inner sides of the two limiting blocks are provided with slots that fit with the guide rod, and the far ends of the two limiting blocks are connected by a screw.
[0015] A further improvement of this utility model is that the movable seat has an elongated slot, the direction of which is perpendicular to the direction of the guide rod, and it can lock and limit all the feeding tubes side by side.
[0016] A further improvement of this utility model is that the bottom of the frame is provided with several movable rollers.
[0017] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0018] In operation, feed pellets are added to the various compartments of the feed bin according to the type of feed. The moving base is moved to one end, and the motor drives the threaded rod to rotate at a constant speed. The moving base is guided by the guide rod, and simultaneously, the flow valves on the discharge pipe open, allowing the various feed pellets to fall into the discharge bin at a specific flow rate. The feed pellets are then guided by the rotating spiral blades in the mixing device, ensuring uniform mixing as they fall into the feeding bin. The feed bin moves back and forth until the moving base reaches the other end, at which point all flow valves close. This ensures consistency of feed types across the multiple feeding bins, preventing inconsistent feeding and uneven growth in livestock and poultry. The continuous and synchronized feeding of various feed pellets effectively achieves uniform mixing. Finally, the feed is precisely fed into multiple feed troughs through the multiple feeding bins. This device has a simple structure, is convenient and flexible to use, and is highly practical. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specific embodiments. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this patent, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this patent.
[0028] like Figure 1-6As shown, this utility model discloses a feed mixing and feeding device, including a frame 1. A long, narrow feed box 11 is provided on the upper part of the frame 1, extending vertically and having a trapezoidal cross-section that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The feed box 11 is divided into several feed bins by several evenly spaced partitions 12 along its length (left-right direction). These feed bins are arranged horizontally, with each bin having the same width on both sides. A threaded rod 24 and a guide rod 25 are rotatably mounted on the upper part of the feed box 11 along the distribution direction (left-right direction) of the partitions 12. One end of the feed box 11 is fixedly equipped with… A motor 2 capable of driving the threaded rod 24 to rotate; a movable seat 26 that is threadedly engaged with the threaded rod 24 is slidably guided and installed on the guide rod 25, and a multi-compartment raw material box 3 is installed on the movable seat 26. Each compartment of the raw material box 3 is connected to a discharge pipe 31 at its bottom, and a flow valve is provided on the discharge pipe 31; a mixing device 4 is connected and installed at the bottom of each discharge compartment, and the mixing device 4 includes a mixing cylinder 42 connected to the bottom of the discharge compartment, and a spiral blade 43 is connected and installed inside the mixing cylinder 42; a feeding box 5 is provided at the lower outlet of the mixing cylinder 42, and the feeding box 5 is connected and installed to the frame 1.
[0029] In use, according to the type of feed, the corresponding feed pellets are put into the multiple compartments of the raw material box 3 respectively; the movable seat 26 is moved to one end, and the motor 2 drives the threaded rod 24 to rotate at a constant speed, so that the movable seat 26 (raw material box 3) is guided to move at a constant speed by the guide rod 25. At the same time, the flow valve on the feed pipe 31 (containing feed) is opened (the opening degree is controlled according to the pre-calculated ratio of the falling flow of each feed, which can precisely adjust the nutritional ratio of the mixed feed), so that the various feed pellets fall into the feed bin at a specific flow rate, and are guided by the rotating spiral blades 43 in the mixing device 4, so that the various feeds are evenly mixed during the rotating falling process. The feed particles fall into the feeding box 5. The feed box 3 moves back and forth (the number of reciprocating movements can be controlled by adjusting the opening of the flow valve and the speed of the reciprocating movement of the feed box 3; the more reciprocating movements, the more uniform the mixing). Finally, the moving seat 26 reaches the other end, controlling all the flow valves to close. This ensures consistency (equal amount) of each type of feed in multiple feeding boxes 5, avoiding inconsistent feeding and uneven growth of livestock and poultry. Furthermore, the continuous (dispersed for a period of time) synchronous feeding of various feed particles effectively achieves uniform mixing of multiple feeds (different particle sizes and densities). Finally, the feed is precisely fed into multiple feed troughs through multiple feeding boxes 5. This device has a simple structure, is convenient and flexible to use, and has good practicality.
[0030] The frame 1 is equipped with several movable rollers 13 at its bottom. The movable rollers 13 are omnidirectional wheels, which enable the entire device to move flexibly and facilitate material feeding.
[0031] Two guide rods 25 are provided, symmetrically arranged relative to the threaded rod 24. These provide a more stable sliding guide support for the movable seat 26, evenly distributing the weight of the movable seat 26 and the raw material box 3 mounted on it. This prevents the movable seat 26 from tilting or wobbling due to uneven force during movement, ensuring smooth movement of the raw material box 3. This makes the feeding process of the feeding pipe 31 more stable, further ensuring the uniformity of feed mixing and the accuracy of feeding. The two symmetrically arranged guide rods 25 effectively enhance the stability and strength of the feed box 11 structure, reducing the possibility of damage to the device due to external forces and extending the service life of the device.
[0032] The threaded rod 24 has a second transmission wheel 22 mounted on one end, and a first transmission wheel 21 mounted on the output end of the motor 2. A transmission belt 23 is connected around the first transmission wheel 21 and the second transmission wheel 22. Compared with direct drive or other rigid connection transmission, belt drive can buffer the impact force during the start-up and operation of the motor 2, making the rotation of the threaded rod 24 more stable. This facilitates the uniform movement of the moving seat 26 on the guide rod 25, thereby ensuring the stable movement of the raw material box 3, making the feeding process uniform, and ultimately ensuring the consistency of feed mixing and the accuracy of feeding.
[0033] Furthermore, motor 2 is a servo motor, which can precisely control the speed and forward and reverse rotation, effectively realizing the uniform horizontal (left and right) movement of the raw material box 3, achieving uniformity in feeding multiple material bins, thereby achieving uniformity in feeding.
[0034] Among them, such as Figure 4 As shown, the movable seat 26 has a long strip-shaped (front-back direction) slot 27. The direction of the slot 27 is perpendicular to the direction of the guide rod 25, and it can lock and limit all the feeding tubes 31 side by side. That is, the width of the slot 27 is adapted to the outer diameter of the feeding tubes 31, so that all the feeding tubes 31 are arranged in a row (front and back). During the left and right movement of the movable seat 26, the accuracy of the position of the feeding tubes 31 relative to the lower material bin is ensured, avoiding left and right misalignment that affects the feeding accuracy and enhancing the synchronization of feeding.
[0035] The mixing cylinder 42 is connected to the bottom of the feed hopper by a funnel-shaped guide hopper 41. The funnel-shaped guide hopper 41 can smoothly and centrally guide the feed in the feed hopper into the mixing cylinder 42, which can effectively prevent the feed from scattering in all directions during the falling process, and ensure that the feed can accurately enter the mixing cylinder 42. This ensures that the spiral blades 43 inside the mixing cylinder 42 can effectively rotate and mix the feed, thereby improving the thoroughness of mixing.
[0036] The mixing cylinder 42 has a central shaft 44 connected to the spiral blades 43 at its centerline. A mixing fan blade 45, rotatably connected to the central shaft 44, is located at the lower end of the mixing cylinder 42. The spiral blades 43 guide the falling feed, impacting the mixing fan blade 45 and causing it to rotate. This further disperses the falling feed, improving mixing uniformity and ensuring livestock receive nutritionally balanced feed. The rotation of the mixing fan blade 45 also makes the feed flowing out of the lower outlet of the mixing cylinder 42 more loose and uniform, preventing feed accumulation and blockage at the outlet. This ensures the feed enters the feeding box 5 in a better condition, guaranteeing accurate and smooth subsequent feeding and ensuring consistent feed quality and condition each time.
[0037] The bottom of the feeding box 5 is connected to a feeding pipe 51, and a shut-off valve is installed on the feeding pipe 51. By controlling the opening and closing of the shut-off valve, convenient and flexible feeding can be achieved.
[0038] The guide rod 25 has limit seats 28 installed at both ends to stop and limit the movement of the movable seat 26. The limit seats 28 stop the movable seat 26, preventing it from moving excessively and avoiding the lower end of the feed pipe 31 from crossing the feed hopper and scattering feed outside. Furthermore, an automatic control system can be set up so that when the movable seat 26 is stopped by the limit seats 28, the motor 2 automatically reverses, improving automatic control.
[0039] Furthermore, the limiting seat 28 includes two rotatably connected limiting blocks. The inner sides of the two limiting blocks are provided with slots that fit with the guide rod 25, and the far ends of the two limiting blocks are connected by a screw. This allows for convenient adjustment of the position of the limiting seat 28 on the guide rod 25, improving the flexibility of use.
[0040] In use, this feed mixing and feeding device allows for the input of corresponding feed pellets into multiple compartments of the raw material box 3, based on the type of feed. The movable seat 26 is moved to one end, and the motor 2 drives the threaded rod 24 to rotate at a constant speed. This causes the movable seat 26 (raw material box 3) to move guided by the guide rod 25. Simultaneously, the flow valve on the feed pipe 31 (containing feed) is opened (the opening degree is controlled according to the pre-calculated flow rate ratio of each feed, allowing for precise adjustment of the nutritional ratio of the mixed feed). This allows multiple feed pellets to fall into the feed bins at specific flow rates, and are guided by the rotating spiral blades 43 within the mixing device 4, ensuring a smooth and controlled descent process. The feed is evenly mixed and falls into the feeding box 5. The feed box 3 moves back and forth (the number of reciprocating movements can be controlled by adjusting the opening of the flow valve and the speed of the reciprocating movement of the feed box 3; the more reciprocating movements, the more uniform the mixing). Finally, the moving seat 26 reaches the other end, controlling all the flow valves to close, thus achieving consistency (equal amount) of each type of feed in multiple feeding boxes 5, avoiding inconsistent feeding and uneven growth of livestock and poultry. Furthermore, the continuous (dispersed for a period of time) synchronous feeding of various feed particles effectively achieves uniform mixing of multiple feeds (different particle sizes and densities). Finally, the feed is precisely fed into multiple feed troughs through multiple feeding boxes 5. This device has a simple structure, is convenient and flexible to use, and has good practicality.
