Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cat litter processing technology, and in particular to a strip-shaped cat litter forming device. Background Technology
[0002] With the booming pet economy and the ever-growing cat-owning population, cat litter, an indispensable daily necessity for cats, is experiencing continuous market demand growth. Cat litter not only needs excellent absorbency, clumping, and odor control to meet the cleaning needs of cats after excretion, but its appearance and ease of use are also increasingly becoming key concerns for consumers. Strip-shaped cat litter, as a new form, has unique advantages compared to traditional granular cat litter. However, existing cat litter forming devices are simple in structure and limited in function, only capable of simple drying and inconvenient for loading and unloading.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, prior art patent application number CN202321734255.1 discloses a strip-shaped cat litter forming device. This device comprises a processing box, a mixing box, a conveyor belt, a forming port, a conveying pipe, a feeding pump, a distributing pipe, a discharge head, a scraper, and a drying mechanism. The conveying pipe, feeding pump, distributing pipe, and discharge head allow the raw material in the mixing box to be pumped to the forming port. The scraper then levels the cat litter material in the forming port. Finally, the drying mechanism dries the cat litter material in the forming port. The dried cat litter is then easily discharged via the conveyor belt.
[0004] However, the above method, which only uses a motor to drive a stirring rod to stir the cat litter raw material, has a blind spot in the stirring process, resulting in poor mixing effect. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a strip-shaped cat litter forming device, which aims to solve the technical problem that the existing technology of simply using a motor to drive a stirring rod to stir the cat litter raw material has a stirring blind zone, resulting in poor stirring and mixing effect.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs a strip-shaped cat litter forming device, comprising a frame, a conveyor belt, a mixing tank, a feeding assembly, a drying assembly, and a stirring mechanism. The conveyor belt, the mixing tank, the feeding assembly, and the drying assembly are all mounted on the frame, and the feeding assembly is connected to the mixing tank.
[0007] The stirring mechanism includes a frame, a motor, a rotating rod, a stirring component, a transmission assembly, a supporting assembly, a block, and a connecting component. The frame is connected to the mixing tank. The motor is mounted on the frame, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected to the rotating rod. The rotating rod has two planes, and the stirring component is slidably connected to the two planes. The connecting component is slidably connected to the mixing tank, and the stirring component is rotatably connected to the connecting component. The block is fixedly connected to the connecting component. The transmission assembly is disposed between the rotating rod and the supporting assembly, and the supporting assembly is connected to the block.
[0008] The supporting component includes a supporting plate and a supporting rod. The block has a supporting groove. The supporting plate is connected to the transmission component. One end of the supporting rod is fixedly connected to the supporting plate, and the other end of the supporting rod is inserted into the supporting groove.
[0009] The transmission assembly includes a driving bevel gear, a driven bevel gear, and a round rod. The round rod is rotatably connected to the block and fixedly connected to the abutment plate. The driving bevel gear and the driven bevel gear are fixedly connected to the rotating rod and the round rod, respectively. The driving bevel gear meshes with the driven bevel gear.
[0010] The stirring component includes a follower rod and a stirring rod. The follower rod is slidably connected to the two planes, and the stirring rod is fixedly connected to the follower rod.
[0011] The strip-shaped cat litter forming device also includes two mounting wing plates and multiple fasteners. Both mounting wing plates are fixedly connected to the drying component. One end of each fastener passes through the corresponding mounting wing plate and is tightened onto the frame.
[0012] This utility model discloses a strip-shaped cat litter forming device. In practical use, the cat litter raw material to be mixed is added into the mixing box, and the motor is started. The output end of the motor drives the rotating rod to rotate. While the rotating rod rotates, it drives the stirring component to stir and mix the cat litter raw material. At the same time, the rotating rod drives the supporting component to rotate through the transmission component. While the supporting component rotates, it drives the block to move laterally back and forth. While the block moves, it drives the connecting component to move laterally back and forth, thereby driving the stirring component to slide back and forth on the two planes. This allows the stirring component to stir and move back and forth at the same time, expanding the stirring range and avoiding stirring blind spots, thus improving the stirring and mixing effect. This method solves the technical problem of poor stirring and mixing effect caused by stirring blind spots in the existing technology that only uses a motor to drive the stirring rod to stir the cat litter raw material.

[0020] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0022] This utility model provides a strip-shaped cat litter forming device, including a frame 101, a conveyor belt 102, a mixing box 103, a feeding assembly 104, a drying assembly 105, a stirring mechanism, a mounting wing plate 106, and multiple fasteners 107. The stirring mechanism includes a frame 108, a motor 109, a rotating rod 110, a stirring component, a transmission assembly, a supporting assembly, a block 112, and a connecting component 113. The supporting assembly includes a supporting disc 114 and a supporting rod 115. The transmission assembly includes a driving bevel gear 116, a driven bevel gear 117, and a round rod 118. The stirring component includes a follower rod 119 and a stirring rod 120. The aforementioned solution solves the technical problem in the prior art where only the motor 109 drives the stirring rod 120 to stir the cat litter raw materials, resulting in a stirring blind zone and poor mixing effect.
[0023] In this specific embodiment, the conveyor belt 102, the mixing box 103, the feeding component 104, and the drying component 105 are all mounted on the frame 101. The feeding component 104 is connected to the mixing box 103. The cat litter raw material in the mixing box 103 falls into the forming port of the conveyor belt 102 through the feeding component 104, and is then dried by the drying component 105 before being discharged.
[0024] The frame 108 is connected to the mixing tank 103. The motor 109 is mounted on the frame 108, and its output end is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 110. The rotating rod 110 has two planes 111, and the stirring element is slidably connected to the two planes 111. The connecting member 113 is slidably connected to the mixing tank 103, and the stirring element is rotatably connected to the connecting member 113. The block 112 is fixedly connected to the connecting member 113. The transmission assembly is located between the rotating rod 110 and the supporting assembly, and the supporting assembly is connected to the block 112. In actual use, the cat litter material to be mixed is added to the mixing tank 103, and the motor 109 is started. The output end of the motor 109 drives... The rotating rod 110 rotates, simultaneously driving the stirring component to mix the cat litter raw material. At the same time, the rotating rod 110 drives the supporting component to rotate via the transmission assembly. The rotating supporting component, in turn, drives the block 112 to reciprocate laterally. The movement of the block 112, in turn, drives the connecting component 113 to reciprocate laterally, thereby causing the stirring component to slide back and forth on the two planes 111. This allows the stirring component to move back and forth while stirring, expanding the stirring range and avoiding blind spots, thus improving the mixing effect. This method solves the technical problem in the prior art where only the motor 109 drives the stirring rod 120 to stir the cat litter raw material, resulting in blind spots and poor mixing effect.
[0025] Secondly, the block 112 has a support groove 121, the support plate 114 is connected to the transmission assembly, one end of the support rod 115 is fixedly connected to the support plate 114, and the other end of the support rod 115 is inserted into the support groove 121. The round rod 118 is rotatably connected to the block 112, and the round rod 118 is fixedly connected to the support plate 114. The driving bevel gear 116 and the driven bevel gear 117 are respectively fixedly connected to the rotating rod 110 and the round rod 118. The driving bevel gear 116 and the driven bevel gear 117 are respectively fixedly connected to the rotating rod 110 and the round rod 118. The driven bevel gear 117 engages, and when the rotating rod 110 rotates, the rotating rod 110 drives the driving bevel gear 116 to rotate. The driving bevel gear 116 drives the round rod 118 to rotate through the driven bevel gear 117. The round rod 118 drives the supporting plate 114 to rotate. The supporting plate 114 drives the supporting rod 115 to slide in the supporting groove 121. While the supporting rod 115 slides in the supporting groove 121, it also drives the block 112 to move, thereby driving the connecting member 113 to move.
[0026] Meanwhile, the follower rod 119 is slidably connected to the two planes 111, and the stirring rod 120 is fixedly connected to the follower rod 119. In actual use, when the rotating rod 110 rotates, it drives the follower rod 119 to rotate, which in turn drives the stirring rod 120 to rotate.
[0027] In addition, both mounting wing plates 106 are fixedly connected to the drying assembly 105. One end of each fastener 107 passes through the corresponding mounting wing plate 106 and is tightened onto the frame 101. In actual use, the drying assembly 105 can be installed by passing one end of each of the fasteners 107 through the corresponding mounting wing plate 106 and tightening them onto the frame 101. Conversely, it is easy to disassemble.
[0028] In the specific use of the strip-shaped cat litter forming device of this utility model, the cat litter raw material to be mixed is added into the mixing box 103, and the motor 109 is started. The output end of the motor 109 drives the rotating rod 110 to rotate. While the rotating rod 110 rotates, it drives the stirring component to stir and mix the cat litter raw material. At the same time, the rotating rod 110 drives the supporting component to rotate through the transmission component. While the supporting component rotates, it drives the block 112 to move laterally back and forth. While the block 112 moves, it drives the connecting component to move laterally back and forth, thereby driving the stirring component to slide back and forth on the two planes 111. This allows the stirring component to stir and move back and forth at the same time, expanding the stirring range and avoiding stirring blind spots, thus improving the stirring and mixing effect. This method solves the technical problem in the prior art that the stirring rod 120 driven by the motor 109 to stir the cat litter raw material has stirring blind spots, resulting in poor stirring and mixing effect.
[0029] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can understand that implementing all or part of the above-described embodiments and making equivalent changes in accordance with the claims of the present utility model are still within the scope of the utility model.
