Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of feed pellet forming, and in particular to a concentrated feed pellet forming device. Background Technology
[0002] In animal husbandry, feed refers to the food used to feed animals, including various nutrients required by animals, such as grains, beans, fishmeal, protein, vitamins and minerals. There are many types of feed, and the composition and formula of feed will vary depending on the needs of different animal species and growth stages. For farm animals, livestock and pets, feed is essential for their normal growth and healthy development.
[0003] Feed pellet forming equipment is a mechanical device used to process animal feed. It is usually used to mix raw materials and then press them into pellets. Existing farms usually use 160 or 250 type feed pellet machines (such as SKJ250). When using it, the forage and other raw materials are crushed and then extruded into pellets. During this process, the feed is semi-cooked to reduce the harm of bacteria and insect eggs. In addition, it has good palatability and reduces feed waste.
[0004] In this type of feed pelleting, the temperature of freshly produced feed is typically between 60 and 90 degrees Celsius. However, the pellet mill lacks a cooling mechanism for the feed. Therefore, the feed needs to be cooled after production before it can be fed to livestock. When the feed is piled up in the storage container, the upper part of the feed, which is in contact with the outside air, cools down quickly, while the lower part, which is in contact with the outside air, cannot cool down quickly. This results in alternating hot and cold temperatures at the point where the two parts of the feed are in contact, which generates moisture and increases humidity. This can even lead to nutrient loss or mold growth during the storage of the feed.
[0005] To address these issues, we propose a concentrated feed pellet forming device. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a concentrated feed pellet forming device.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A concentrated feed pellet forming device includes a feed pellet mill, a discharge hopper inside the feed pellet mill, a frame outside the discharge hopper, the frame being inclined, a cooling groove on the lower end face of the frame, a cooling box installed at the lower end of the frame, an opening on the lower end face of the cooling groove, the cooling box being installed at the opening, and a set of rotating rollers inside the frame.
[0009] Preferably, mounting bolts are provided between the frame and the side wall of the discharge hopper for installation and fixation.
[0010] Preferably, a set of cooling holes is provided between the cooling tank and the inner cavity of the frame.
[0011] Preferably, a set of water-cooling pipes is provided in the inner cavity of the cooling box, and a guide fan is provided on the side of the cooling box corresponding to the slot opening.
[0012] Preferably, a set of lifting plates is connected to the side wall of a set of rotating rollers, the set of lifting plates is generally arc-shaped, and a drive wheel is connected to the outer end of the set of rotating rollers respectively, and a drive belt is sleeved on the outer side of the drive wheel.
[0013] Preferably, a set of guide plates is connected to the inner wall of the cooling tank above the tank opening. The set of guide plates is generally arc-shaped and offset from the cooling holes. The height of the set of guide plates gradually increases on the side away from the tank opening.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] In use, this invention employs a frame to receive the produced feed. Simultaneously, the combined action of a cooling box, cooling tank, and cooling holes cools the air and conducts it into the frame, thereby cooling the feed particles and rapidly reducing the overall temperature of the feed. This ensures thorough and rapid cooling, preventing uneven heating that could lead to nutrient loss or mold. Furthermore, the combination of a drive belt and drive wheels drives the rotating rollers and lifting plates to rotate rapidly, lifting some of the feed to increase its contact time with the cooling air and further improving overall cooling efficiency. Additionally, the inclusion of guide plates allows for a gradual cooling process. At the end of the frame near the discharge hopper, a guide fan directs cold air for rapid cooling, while at the end further away from the discharge hopper, the guide plates guide the cold air for slower cooling. This gradual cooling process prevents the cooled feed from becoming too cold and affecting livestock appetite. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0025] Reference Figure 1A concentrated feed pellet forming device includes a feed pellet mill 1. The feed pellet mill 1 (e.g., SKJ250) is driven by a three-phase motor (e.g., YE3 series) to mix and crush the feed pellets and other raw materials (eggs or corn, etc.), and then press them into pellets. During this process, the pellets are semi-cooked to reduce the harm of bacteria and insect eggs. In addition, the pellets are palatable and reduce feed waste. The feed pellet mill 1 is equipped with a discharge hopper 2, and a frame 3 is provided on the outside of the discharge hopper 2. The frame 3 is designed with an overall inclination. The frame 3 receives the feed pellets in the discharge hopper 2 and moves them downward under the action of gravity. The frame 3 is provided with mounting bolts 301 between the frame 3 and the side wall of the discharge hopper 2 for installation and fixation, so as to facilitate the user to install and disassemble the frame 3 and its auxiliary structures for maintenance or replacement.
[0026] Reference Figure 2-4 A cooling groove 4 is provided on the lower end face of the frame 3. A set of cooling holes 401 is provided between the cooling groove 4 and the inner cavity of the frame 1. The diameter of the cooling holes 401 is smaller than the size of the feed particles to prevent the feed particles from entering the cooling groove 4. A cooling box 5 is installed at the lower end of the frame 3. A slot 6 is provided on the lower end face of the cooling groove 4. The cooling box 5 is installed at the slot 6. A set of water-cooling pipes 501 is provided in the inner cavity of the cooling box 5. The water-cooling pipes 501 are connected to the external pump and water-cooling device. An air inlet is provided on one side wall of the cooling box 5 to guide the air in. A guide fan 502 is provided on the side of the cooling box 501 corresponding to the slot 6. The operation of the guide fan 502 can drive the air to flow, thereby cooling the air through the water-cooling pipes 501. The air then enters the frame 3 through the cooling holes 401 to cool the feed particles. The cooling process rapidly reduces the overall temperature of the feed. A set of rotating rollers 7 is installed inside the frame 3. A set of lifting plates 701 are connected to the side wall of each roller 7. The lifting plates 701 have an arc-shaped design and a soft padding layer at their ends to prevent damage to the feed pellet structure. A servo motor (IHSS57-36-20) is installed on the outer wall of the frame 3, and the motor's power output is connected to the shaft of one of the rotating rollers 7. A transmission wheel 702 is connected to the outer end of each roller 7, and a transmission belt 703 is fitted around the outer side of the transmission wheel 702. The servo motor drives one of the rollers 7 to rotate. The transmission belt 703 and the transmission wheel 702 work together to allow multiple rollers 7 to rotate simultaneously, thereby lifting a portion of the feed using the lifting plates 701 to increase its contact time with the cooling air and thus improve overall cooling efficiency.
[0027] Reference Figure 4A set of guide plates 8 are connected to the inner wall of the cooling tank 4 above the opening 6. The set of guide plates 8 is arc-shaped and offset from the cooling hole 401, so that the inner cavity of the frame 3 above the guide fan 502 can be directly blown to cool down quickly. The height of the set of guide plates 8 gradually increases on the side away from the opening 6. The guide plates 8 guide the air to gradually move away from the discharge hopper 2, so that the inner cavity of the frame 3 on the side away from the guide fan 502 comes into contact with the cold air and cools down slowly, thereby avoiding the feed temperature from being too low after cooling and affecting the livestock's feeding.
[0028] Working principle: When using this utility model, the frame 3 is installed on the discharge hopper 2 using the mounting bolts 301. The external pump body drives the flow of coolant inside the water cooling pipe 501, and at the same time, the guide fan 502 is controlled to drive the air circulation, thereby conducting the cooled air into the frame 3. Then, the feed pellet mill 1 is started to produce feed, which falls onto the frame 1 through the discharge hopper 2. The cold air cools the feed. At the same time, the servo motor is started to drive one of the rotating rollers 7 to rotate. The transmission belt 703 and the transmission wheel 702 cooperate to make multiple rollers 7 rotate simultaneously, thereby lifting part of the feed using the lifting plate 701 to increase its contact time with the cooling air, thus completing the cooling work of the feed. The feed is collected in the external container at the end of the frame 1.
[0029] The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited to the above embodiments. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
