AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, feed additive mixers have limited improvement in mixing efficiency when the feed pile inside the drum is thick, especially for deep materials.
The mixing drum employs a combination of baffles and agitators. Driven by a motor, the mixing drum and agitators rotate reciprocally. The baffles continuously guide the feed inward and throw it toward the agitators. The falling feed is then broken up again after colliding with the agitators, preventing clumping and improving mixing uniformity and efficiency.
It significantly improves the uniformity and efficiency of mixing feed and additives, prevents clumping, and facilitates unloading after mixing.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feed processing technology, specifically to a feed additive mixer that produces uniformly mixed feed additives. Background Technology
[0002] Feed additives refer to small or trace amounts of substances added during feed production, processing, and use. They are used in very small quantities but have significant effects. Feed additives are essential raw materials used in the modern feed industry, and they have obvious effects on enhancing the nutritional value of basic feeds, improving animal production performance, ensuring animal health, saving feed costs, and improving the quality of livestock products.
[0003] Chinese patent document CN223184431U discloses a feed additive mixer, including a first box and a second box. The drive shaft of the second box is rotatably connected to the first box via bearings. The bottom of the first box is provided with a discharge mechanism. The interior of the second box is provided with an auxiliary stirring mechanism. Two fixed columns are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second box. The outer walls of the fixed columns are slidably connected to vertical plates. The upper ends of the vertical plates are fixedly connected to a barrel. The right side of the barrel is fixedly connected to a discharge port. The upper right side of the barrel is fixedly connected to a feed inlet. A first motor is fixedly connected to the center of the upper end of the barrel.
[0004] In the above scheme, when the feed inside the barrel is stirred by the stirring roller, the auxiliary stirring mechanism drives the barrel to move back and forth, so that the feed inside the barrel shakes to improve the mixing efficiency. However, when the feed inside the barrel is thick, the reciprocating motion of the barrel can only slightly turn the surface feed, and the deep material still needs to rely on the stirring roller to achieve effective turning, resulting in a limited improvement in mixing efficiency.

[0031] Example 1
[0032] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention proposes a feed additive mixer for uniform mixing, which includes a mounting frame, a mixing cylinder 5, a motor 7, and a stirring assembly.
[0033] The mixing cylinder 5 is rotatably mounted on the top of the mounting frame. The inner side of the mixing cylinder 5 is provided with multiple baffles 12 for reciprocating movement of materials within the mixing cylinder 5 and for scattering materials within the mixing cylinder 5 during use. The opening of the mixing cylinder 5 is in the shape of a concentric tube with different diameters, which is used to guide the feed to the inner side of the mixing cylinder 5 and reduce the amount of feed moving towards the opening of the mixing cylinder 5.
[0034] The stirring component is rotatably installed in the middle of the mixing cylinder 5 and one end extends to the outside of the mixing cylinder 5. One end of the stirring component is provided with a transmission component that is connected to the bracket 1 and the mixing cylinder 5 and rotates the mixing cylinder 5 with the stirring component in the use state.
[0035] The motor 7 is mounted on one end of the bracket 1 via a bracket and is connected to the agitation assembly.
[0036] In an optional embodiment, multiple baffles 12 are arranged at equal angles and distances around the center of the mixing cylinder 5, and the baffles 12 are arranged in an inclined manner. During use, the inclined baffles 12 guide the feed to the inside of the mixing cylinder 5 and the opening of the mixing cylinder 5, making the feeding and discharging of the feed more convenient. The baffles 12 also drive the feed to move towards the top of the inside of the mixing cylinder 5 and sprinkle it, and improve the mixing effect of the feed and additives.
[0037] In this embodiment, the motor 7 drives the stirring component to rotate inside the mixing cylinder 5 and drives the transmission component to rotate, causing the transmission component to drive the mixing cylinder 5 to rotate on the support 1. This movement causes the baffle 12 to move around the stirring component and continuously guide the feed to the inside of the mixing cylinder 5. The feed is also pushed along the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 5 to the top and is thrown towards the stirring component. The falling feed is scattered again after colliding with the stirring component, effectively preventing clumping and improving the mixing effect. When the feed accumulates in the inside of the mixing cylinder 5, the motor 7 is rotated in the opposite direction, causing the mixing cylinder 5 to rotate in the opposite direction. This causes the baffle 12 to push the feed towards the opening of the mixing cylinder 5, which can significantly improve the uniformity and efficiency of the mixing of feed and additives. After mixing is completed, the mixing cylinder 5 is driven to rotate the baffle 12, so that the baffle 12 can efficiently discharge the feed from the opening of the mixing cylinder 5, achieving convenient unloading.
[0038] Example 2
[0039] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the present invention proposes a feed additive mixer for uniform mixing. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the mounting frame includes a bracket 1, a cover plate 2, a sealing door 3, and a feed pipe 4.
[0040] The bracket 1 is located below the mixing cylinder 5 and is connected to a bearing at one end of the mixing cylinder 5;
[0041] The cover plate 2 is installed at one end of the bracket 1 and covers the opening at one end of the mixing cylinder 5;
[0042] The sealing door 3 is installed in the middle of the cover plate 2 and near the bottom, and is used to control the discharge of feed during use (existing technology, the figure is only for illustration).
[0043] The feed pipe 4 is located above the sealing door 3 and connected to the cover plate 2, with its end extending to the inside of the mixing cylinder 5.
[0044] In an optional embodiment, the inner side of the cover plate 2 is provided with a plurality of rollers 14 arranged at equal angles around the center of the mixing cylinder 5. The rollers 14 are tumblingly connected to the mixing cylinder 5 and are used to support the end of the mixing cylinder 5 and make the mixing cylinder 5 rotate stably on the support 1 during use.
[0045] In this embodiment, the cover plate 2 is placed over the opening of the mixing cylinder 5, so that the roller 14 on its inner side forms a rolling connection with the mixing cylinder 5; at the same time, one end of the mixing cylinder 5 is connected to the bearing of the bracket 1 to ensure that the mixing cylinder 5 rotates stably above the bracket 1. By opening or closing the sealing door 3 on the cover plate 2, the discharge of the mixing cylinder 5 can be controlled, and the feed inside the mixing cylinder 5 can be prevented from moving to the outside during the mixing process. At the same time, it can prevent the feed and additives from spilling to the outside of the mixing cylinder 5 when the feed pipe 4 is tilted on the cover plate 2 to deliver feed and additives to the opening of the mixing cylinder 5.
[0046] Example 3
[0047] like Figure 3 As shown, the present invention proposes a feed additive mixer for uniform mixing. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the stirring component includes a rotating shaft 11 and a stirring rod 13.
[0048] The rotating shaft 11 is rotatably installed in the middle of the mixing cylinder 5;
[0049] There are multiple stirring rods 13, all of which are installed on the outer circular surface of the rotating shaft 11 and located inside the mixing cylinder 5. The multiple stirring rods 13 can be rod-shaped, plate-shaped or mesh-shaped to cope with different usage conditions.
[0050] In an optional embodiment, a plurality of stirring rods 13 are arranged at equal angles and at equal distances around the center of the mixing cylinder 5. The length of the stirring rods 13 is less than the distance between the rotating shaft 11 and the baffle 12, so that the stirring rods 13 can stir the feed inside the mixing cylinder 5 when they move around the rotating shaft 11.
[0051] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 11 rotates inside the mixing cylinder 5 and drives multiple stirring rods 13 to move circumferentially, so that the stirring rods 13 stir the feed inside the mixing cylinder 5 and come into contact with the feed scattered by the baffle 12, thereby improving the feed dispersion, avoiding clumping, and improving the mixing efficiency.
[0052] Example 4
[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, the present invention proposes a feed additive mixer for uniform mixing. Compared with the first embodiment, the difference in this embodiment is that the transmission component includes an internal gear 6, a chain drive structure 8, a driving gear 9, and a driven gear 10.
[0054] The internal gear 6 is installed at the other end of the mixing cylinder 5;
[0055] Both the driving gear 9 and the driven gear 10 are rotatably mounted on the top of the bracket 1, and the driven gear 10 is meshed with the driving gear 9 and the internal gear 6 respectively. The driven gear 10 and the driving gear 9 can be used together or separately to rotate the rotating shaft 11 and the mixing cylinder 5 in the same or opposite direction during use.
[0056] The chain drive structure 8 is installed at one end of the rotating shaft 11 and connected to the mounting shaft of the drive gear 9.
[0057] In this embodiment, the driven gear 10, which meshes with the driving gear 9 and the internal gear 6 respectively, drives the chain drive structure 8 to rotate when the rotating shaft 11 rotates. The chain drive structure 8 drives the driving gear 9 to rotate on the support 1, which in turn drives the internal gear 6 to rotate through the driven gear 10. This drives the internal gear 6 to rotate the mixing cylinder 5 on the support 1. As a result, the mixing cylinder 5 drives the baffle 12 to guide and scatter the feed, thus achieving feed mixing.
[0058] In this invention, the motor 7 drives the rotating shaft 11 to rotate inside the mixing cylinder 5, which in turn drives the chain drive structure 8 to operate. The chain drive structure 8 drives the drive gear 9 to rotate on the support 1, which in turn drives the internal gear 6 to rotate via the driven gear 10. The internal gear 6 drives the mixing cylinder 5 to rotate on the support 1. At this time, feed and additives are conveyed into the inner side of the mixing cylinder 5 through the feed pipe 4. The mixing cylinder 5 simultaneously drives the baffle 12 to continuously guide the feed to the inner side and push the feed along the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 5 to the top. Subsequently, the baffle 12 throws the feed and additives away. As the feed falls towards the stirring rod 13, which moves circumferentially with the mixing drum 5, it comes into contact with and collides with the stirring rod 13. The stirring rod 13 strikes the feed and additives, causing them to disperse again, effectively preventing feed clumping and improving the mixing effect. When the feed accumulates inside the mixing drum 5, the motor 7 is rotated in the opposite direction, causing the mixing drum 5 to rotate in the opposite direction. The baffle 12 pushes the feed towards the opening of the mixing drum 5. During the movement, the feed is thrown again by the baffle 12 towards the stirring rod 13, colliding with and dispersing it, significantly improving the uniformity and efficiency of the mixing of feed and additives. In addition, the sealing door 3 can be opened to discharge the feed from inside the mixing drum 5, making discharge more convenient.
[0059] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
