Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feed processing technology, specifically to a rapid mixer for feed additives. Background Technology
[0002] Feed processing is a crucial part of modern animal husbandry, aiming to process various raw materials into balanced nutrients needed by animals through scientific methods. In the feed processing process, the uniform mixing of additives is a key step to ensure feed quality and animal health.
[0003] Current feed additive mixing equipment mostly adopts a fixed stirring structure, where the position of the stirring blades inside the mixing tank is not adjustable. This results in poor mixing effects for materials with different densities and viscosities, especially additives with large differences in specific gravity (such as trace elements and carriers), which are prone to stratification or uneven mixing. In addition, traditional mixers usually have an open inlet design, which easily generates dust and material splashing during the mixing process, resulting in raw material waste and affecting the cleanliness of the working environment. To solve these problems, we propose a rapid feed additive mixer. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rapid feed additive mixer to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a rapid feed additive mixer, comprising a mixing tank, a feed inlet fixedly connected to the top of the mixing tank, a discharge pipe fixedly connected to the bottom of the mixing tank, a feed storage box fixedly connected to the output end of the discharge pipe, a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall of the mixing tank, a stirring shaft slidably connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft, stirring spiral blades fixedly connected to the outer side of the stirring shaft, a stirring motor fixedly installed on the top of the mixing tank, the output end of the stirring motor extending into the interior of the mixing tank and fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, and an adjustment component provided inside the mixing tank for driving the stirring shaft to move.
[0006] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, the adjusting component includes an adjusting ring, which is fixedly connected to the top of the stirring shaft. A limiting groove is formed on the top of the stirring shaft, and the opening of the adjusting ring communicates with the limiting groove. A limiting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft, and the outer side of the limiting plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove.
[0007] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a fixing plate is rotatably connected to the outer side of the adjusting ring, and an electric cylinder is fixedly installed on the top of the mixing tank. The output end of the electric cylinder extends into the interior of the mixing tank and is fixedly connected to the fixing plate.
[0008] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a flat key is fixedly connected to the outer side of the limiting plate, and a keyway is provided inside the limiting groove. The outer side of the flat key is slidably connected to the inner wall of the keyway.
[0009] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a chute is provided on one side of the feed inlet, and a closing plate is slidably connected between the inner walls of the chute.
[0010] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, side grooves are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the feed inlet, and limit blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the closing plate, with the outer side of the limit block slidably connected to the inner wall of the side groove.
[0011] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, a discharge valve is fixedly installed inside the discharge pipe.
[0012] This utility model provides a rapid mixer for feed additives, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] (1) This utility model uses an electric cylinder to drive a fixed plate to move an adjusting ring up and down, so that the stirring shaft moves synchronously up and down along the limiting plate of the rotating shaft, thereby realizing the dynamic adjustment of the stirring spiral blades in the vertical direction within the mixing tank. By changing the working height of the stirring element, this structure can create three-dimensional turbulence for materials with different bulk densities, allowing the additives and main materials to mix synchronously in the axial and radial directions. This significantly improves the mixing efficiency compared to traditional fixed stirring devices, especially for premixed materials with large differences in specific gravity, enabling stratified breakthrough mixing and shortening the mixing cycle.
[0014] (2) This utility model uses a dual-guide structure of sliding groove and side groove to enable the closing plate to slide smoothly and close under the constraint of the limiting block. When the closing plate completely covers the feed inlet, its edge and the inner wall of the feed inlet form a labyrinth-like sealing structure, which can effectively suppress the escape of dust during the mixing process and prevent the aerosol generated by the material during high-speed stirring from overflowing.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0022] This utility model provides a technical solution: such as Figures 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, a rapid feed additive mixer includes a mixing tank 1. A feed inlet 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the mixing tank 1, and a discharge pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mixing tank 1. A feed storage box 2 is fixedly connected to the output end of the discharge pipe 3. A rotating shaft 8 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. A stirring shaft 9 is slidably connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 8. A stirring spiral blade 10 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the stirring shaft 9. A stirring motor 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the mixing tank 1. The output end of the stirring motor 6 extends into the interior of the mixing tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 8. An adjustment component is provided inside the mixing tank 1 to drive the stirring shaft 9 to move. A chute 11 is provided on one side of the feed inlet 5. A closing plate 13 is slidably connected between the inner walls of the chute 11. Side grooves 12 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the feed inlet 5. Limiting blocks 14 are fixedly connected to both sides of the closing plate 13. The outer side of the limiting block 14 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the side groove 12. A discharge valve 4 is fixedly installed inside the discharge pipe 3.
[0023] First, connect the equipment to an external power source to power it on. Then, introduce the feed ingredients and additives to be mixed into the mixing tank 1 through the feed inlet 5. Next, use the stirring motor 6 to drive the rotating shaft 8 to rotate. Then, under the drive of the rotating shaft 8 (through the transmission effect of the adjustment component), the stirring shaft 9 and the stirring spiral blades 10 rotate synchronously to achieve the mixing of materials. During the mixing process, the adjustment component can make the stirring shaft 9 slide along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 8, thereby dynamically adjusting the working height of the stirring spiral blades 10 to form three-dimensional turbulence, effectively solving the problem of material stratification with large differences in specific gravity.
[0024] After the material is placed, the closing plate 13 and the limiting block 14 slide smoothly in the dual-guided structure of the chute 11 and the side chute 12, thereby sealing the feed inlet 5 and preventing dust from escaping. This adjustable stirring system can adapt to the mixing requirements of different materials, improving the mixing quality and speed.
[0025] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment ring 16, which is fixedly connected to the top of the stirring shaft 9. A limiting groove 19 is formed on the top of the stirring shaft 9. The opening of the adjustment ring 16 communicates with the limiting groove 19. A limiting plate 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating shaft 8. The outer side of the limiting plate 15 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 19. A fixing plate 17 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the adjustment ring 16. An electric cylinder 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the mixing tank 1. The output end of the electric cylinder 7 extends into the interior of the mixing tank 1 and is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 17. A flat key 20 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the limiting plate 15. A keyway 18 is formed inside the limiting groove 19. The outer side of the flat key 20 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the keyway 18.
[0026] During operation, the electric cylinder 7 drives the adjusting ring 16 to move up and down via the fixed plate 17, which in turn drives the stirring shaft 9 to smoothly rise and fall along the limiting plate 15 of the rotating shaft 8. The cooperation between the flat key 20 and the keyway 18 ensures both effective transmission of torque and precise axial positioning, allowing the stirring spiral blades 10 to be infinitely height-adjusted within a corresponding range within the mixing tank 1. This structure, by dynamically adjusting the stirring position, can create an optimal mixing flow field for materials of different densities.
[0027] This utility model provides a rapid feed additive mixer, the specific working principle of which is as follows: After the equipment is powered on, feed raw materials and additives are put into the mixing tank 1 through the feed inlet 5. The closing plate 13 slides and seals the feed inlet 5 through the double guide structure of the slide groove 11 and the side groove 12. The stirring motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate the stirring shaft body 9 and the stirring spiral blades 10. At the same time, the electric cylinder 7 pushes the adjusting ring 16 through the fixing plate 17, so that the stirring shaft body 9 moves axially along the limiting plate 15 of the rotating shaft 8. The cooperation between the flat key 20 and the keyway 18 ensures torque transmission and precise positioning, realizing stepless adjustment of the height of the stirring spiral blades 10. This dynamic adjustment forms a three-dimensional turbulence, effectively solving the stratification problem of materials with different specific gravities. After mixing, the material is discharged from the discharge pipe 3 into the feed storage tank 2 through the discharge valve 4.
