Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet food ingredient mixing technology, specifically a pet food ingredient mixing device. Background Technology

[0002] The pet food industry has experienced rapid growth in recent years, leading to increasingly higher demands on the efficiency and quality of production equipment. As a core step in pet food production, raw material mixing directly impacts the nutritional uniformity, palatability, and production efficiency of the product due to the performance of the equipment used.

[0003] Patent CN217068626U discloses a raw material mixing device for pet food production and processing, including a gear ring, a cover plate, and a retainer. A mixing tank is rotatably mounted on the retainer. The gear ring is mounted on the side of the mixing tank. A servo motor is welded to one side of the top of the retainer. A connecting rod is rotatably mounted on the servo motor, and a gear disc is welded to the top of the connecting rod. Slots are symmetrically opened on the top of the mixing tank. Insert rods are symmetrically welded to both sides of the bottom of the cover plate, and two insert rods are inserted into the slots respectively. A stirring motor is embedded in the cover plate, and a stirring rod is rotatably mounted on the stirring motor, extending into the mixing tank. This invention has the advantages of simple structure, convenient operation, allowing the mixing tank and stirring rod to rotate in opposite directions, resulting in fast stirring speed, more thorough mixing of raw materials, and easy disassembly of the cover plate for convenient cleaning of the inside of the mixing tank.

[0004] In order to facilitate cleaning the inside of the mixing tank, the aforementioned patent has a detachable cover. However, the cover is equipped with a motor and a stirring shaft, so it is difficult and inconvenient to disassemble. Moreover, the stirring shaft is easily damaged when it is placed after disassembly, such as causing bending or wear of the stirring blades. Utility Model Content

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a pet food ingredient mixing device includes a base 1, on which a mixing drum 2 is provided, which is driven to rotate by a third motor 6. The transmission can be carried out by the gear and gear ring meshing method disclosed in patent CN217068626U. The upper end of the mixing drum 2 is provided with a drum cover 5, the upper end of the drum cover 5 is provided with a second motor 503, and the lower end of the drum cover 5 is provided with a mixing shaft 501 connected to the second motor 503.

[0029] A bracket 101 is provided on one side of the base 1. A guide rod 103 and a lead screw 104 are vertically arranged inside the bracket 101. A first motor 102 is connected to the bottom of the lead screw 104. Figure 3 As shown, the upper end of the bucket lid 5 is connected to a slide 505 via a pull rod 504. The slide 505 has a guide hole 506 that mates with the guide rod 103 and a nut sleeve 507 that mates with the lead screw 104. The bucket lid 5 has a feed inlet 502, and a feed cylinder 3 is connected to the feed inlet 502. The slide 505 drives the bucket lid 5 to rise, which allows the stirring shaft 501 to be completely pulled out of the mixing bucket 2, facilitating the cleaning of the stirring shaft 501. The side wall of the bracket 101 is provided with a rinsing mechanism 4 for cleaning the inner wall of the mixing bucket 2.

[0030] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the upper outer side of the mixing tank 2 is provided with a guide rail 201, and the bottom of the tank cover 5 is provided with an inner baffle 508 that cooperates with the inner side wall of the mixing tank 2 and an outer baffle 509 that cooperates with the outer side wall of the guide rail 201. The inner baffle 508 can prevent the material from floating out. A support wheel 510 that cooperates with the guide rail 201 is provided between the inner baffle 508 and the outer baffle 509, which can reduce the friction between the tank cover 5 and the mixing tank 2.

[0031] like Figure 7 , Figure 8As shown, the upper end of the feeding cylinder 3 is connected to the feeding hopper 301. The side wall of the feeding cylinder 3 is provided with multiple insertion holes 303. The inner side of the insertion hole 303 is provided with a baffle 304. The upper end of the baffle 304 is connected to the inner wall of the feeding cylinder 3 through a rotating shaft or hinge. An insertable insert plate 305 is fitted inside the insertion hole 303. There is one insert plate 305. Different positions of the insertion hole 303 represent different volumes. After inserting the insert plate 305, the material can be quantitatively measured through the space above the insert plate 305. After the material is poured in, the insert plate 305 is pulled out, and the material will automatically fall into the mixing tank 2. During mixing, the insert plate 305 can prevent material dust from floating out.

[0032] One end of the insert plate 305 is provided with a metal end plate 306 (such as iron), and a handle 307 is provided on the side wall of the end plate 306. A magnet 302 is provided on the side wall of the feed cylinder 3 to attract the end plate 306, which can ensure the stability of the insert plate 305 during use.

[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, the rinsing mechanism 4 includes a rotatable swing rod 402 connected to the bracket 101 via a positioning bolt 401. The rotatable swing rod 402 is connected to the side wall of the bracket 101 via the positioning bolt 401. The swing rod 402 has a water hole (waterway or internal water pipe). One end of the water hole is connected to a water inlet 403, which is connected to a water supply pipe (such as a tap water pipe). The other end of the water hole is connected to a water outlet 404, which is connected to radially arranged spray pipes 405 (multiple spray pipes 405 are arranged circumferentially and their ends are welded together). The ends of the spray pipes 405 are equipped with nozzles 406. After the stirring shaft 501 is raised, as... Figure 2 As shown, rotating the lever 402 can position the nozzle 406 above the mixing tank 2 and below the mixing shaft 501. The nozzle 406 sprays water towards the inner wall of the mixing tank 2 (the upper middle part of the mixing tank 2, about three-quarters to four-fifths of the height of the mixing tank 2). The nozzle 406 is a fan-shaped nozzle 406, and there are at least four of them, which can spray and wash the inner wall of the mixing tank 2 in a complete circle. The water flow washes downward along the inner wall of the mixing tank 2. After use, the lever can be rotated to one side of the mixing tank 2.
