Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feed dispensing technology, and in particular to a quantitative dispensing mechanism for feed additives. Background Technology

[0002] Feed additives refer to small or trace amounts of substances added during feed processing, production, or use, with the aim of improving feed utilization efficiency, protecting animal health, or improving the quality of livestock products.

[0003] In the process of feed production, in order to improve the nutritional value and quality of feed, it is often necessary to add various additives to the feed. The accuracy of the amount of additives added directly affects the quality and effectiveness of the feed. Traditional feed additives are mostly added manually, which is not only labor-intensive, but also difficult to guarantee the accuracy of the dosage. This cannot meet the needs of modern feed production and is not practical enough. Therefore, it is necessary to redesign the quantitative feeding mechanism for feed additives to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a quantitative dispensing mechanism for feed additives.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A feed additive dispensing mechanism includes a base plate and a storage tank. A bidirectional screw is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the storage tank via a support frame. A first motor connected to the bidirectional screw is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the support frame. A first limiting rod is fixedly mounted inside the support frame. Two movable sleeves are threaded onto the outer wall of the bidirectional screw. The first limiting rod slides through the two movable sleeves. A first connecting frame is fixedly mounted on the bottom wall of each of the two movable sleeves. A second connecting frame is rotatably mounted inside each of the two first connecting frames via a connecting mechanism. A dispensing plate is fixedly mounted on the bottom wall of both second connecting frames. A unidirectional screw is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the base plate via the movable frame. A second motor connected to the outer wall of the unidirectional screw is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the movable frame via a connecting mechanism. A moving block is threaded onto the outer wall of the unidirectional screw via a limiting mechanism. A pump body is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the moving block.

[0007] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes a connecting plate rotatably mounted inside the first connecting frame, and the end of the connecting plate is rotatably connected to the inside of the second connecting frame.

[0008] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a second limiting rod fixedly installed inside the movable frame, the second limiting rod sliding through the movable block.

[0009] Preferably, two support legs are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the storage tank, and the bottom walls of the two support legs are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate.

[0010] Preferably, the outer wall of the pump body inlet is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the storage tank discharge port via a telescopic flexible hose, and a discharge pipe is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the pump body outlet.

[0011] Preferably, a controller is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base plate, and the controller is electrically connected to the first motor, the second motor and the pump body respectively.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. By setting up components such as a bidirectional screw, a first limiting rod, and a second connecting frame, the bidirectional screw is driven to rotate by a first motor. Under the limiting action of the first limiting rod, the two moving sleeves will move along the bidirectional screw in relative or opposite directions. Then, through the first connecting frame, connecting plate, and second connecting frame, the quantitative push plate is driven to move up and down, thereby realizing the quantitative push of additives in the storage tank and ensuring the accuracy of the dosage.

[0014] 2. By setting up components such as a one-way screw, a second limit rod, and a moving block, the second motor drives the one-way screw to rotate. Under the limiting action of the second limit rod, the moving block will move along the one-way screw, thereby driving the pump body to move. This makes it easier to adjust the additive dosing position according to actual needs and improves the flexibility of the mechanism. Attached Figure Description

[0021] 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.

[0022] Reference Figure 1-5 The feed additive dispensing mechanism includes a base plate 1 and a storage tank 2. Two support legs 3 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the storage tank 2. The bottom walls of the two support legs 3 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base plate 1. The support legs 3 provide stable support for the storage tank 2. Through the connection with the base plate 1, the stability of the storage tank 2 is further enhanced, preventing it from shaking during operation. A bidirectional screw 6 is rotatably installed on the outer wall of the storage tank 2 through a support frame 5. A first motor 7 connected to the bidirectional screw 6 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the support frame 5. A first limiting rod 8 is fixedly installed inside the support frame 5. Two movable sleeves 9 are threaded on the outer wall of the bidirectional screw 6. The first limiting rod 8 slides through the two movable sleeves 9.

[0023] Both movable sleeves 9 have a first connecting frame 10 fixedly installed on their bottom walls. A second connecting frame 12 is rotatably installed inside each of the two first connecting frames 10 via a connecting mechanism. The connecting mechanism includes a connecting plate 11 rotatably installed inside the first connecting frame 10, with its end rotatably connected to the inside of the second connecting frame 12. A quantitative feeding plate 13 is fixedly installed on the bottom walls of both second connecting frames 12. A one-way screw 15 is rotatably installed on the upper surface of the base plate 1 via a movable frame 14. A second motor 16, connected to the outer wall of the one-way screw 15, is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the movable frame 14. A movable block 18 is threadedly installed on the outer wall of the one-way screw 15 via a limiting mechanism. The limiting mechanism includes a second limiting rod 17 fixedly installed inside the movable frame 14. The second limiting rod 17 slides through the movable block 18, providing guidance and limiting for the movement of the movable block 18, effectively preventing rotation during movement and ensuring its stability and accuracy.

[0024] A pump body 19 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the movable block 18. The outer wall of the inlet of the pump body 19 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the discharge port of the storage tank 2 through a telescopic hose 20. A discharge pipe 21 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the outlet of the pump body 19. The telescopic hose 20 has good extensibility and can adapt to the movement of the pump body 19 to ensure the smooth delivery of additives. The discharge pipe 21 is used to guide the additives extracted by the pump body 19 to the designated delivery position. A controller 22 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the base plate 1. The controller 22 is electrically connected to the first motor 7, the second motor 16 and the pump body 19 respectively.

[0025] When this utility model is used, the additive is fed into the storage tank 2 through the feed hopper 4. At this time, the operator can preset the amount and position parameters of the additive through the controller 22. The controller 22 will first start the first motor 7, which drives the bidirectional screw 6 to rotate in the support frame 5. Since the two movable sleeves 9 on the outer wall of the bidirectional screw 6 are restricted in their rotational freedom by the first limiting rod 8, the two movable sleeves 9 will move relatively closer or further away along the bidirectional screw 6. The movement of the movable sleeves 9 is transmitted to the connecting plate 11 through the first connecting frame 10. The connecting plate 11 rotates in the first connecting frame 10 and the second connecting frame 12, thereby driving the quantitative push plate 13 at the bottom of the second connecting frame 12 to move up and down. When the quantitative push plate 13 moves downward, it can push the additive in the storage tank 2 towards the discharge port. By controlling the moving distance of the quantitative push plate 13, the precise control of the amount of additive pushed in a single push can be achieved.

[0026] After the additive is pushed to the discharge port of the storage tank 2, the controller 22 starts the second motor 16. The second motor 16 drives the one-way screw 15 to rotate in the moving frame 14. Under the limiting action of the second limit rod 17, the moving block 18 moves smoothly along the one-way screw 15, thereby driving the upper pump body 19 to adjust its position so that the discharge pipe 21 is aligned with the designated area of ​​the feed to be added. After the position adjustment is completed, the controller 22 controls the pump body 19 to start. The additive in the storage tank 2 enters the telescopic hose 20 through the discharge port. After being pressurized by the pump body 19, it is accurately delivered to the target position through the discharge pipe 21. During the entire delivery process, the support leg 3 provides stable support for the storage tank 2 to ensure the smooth operation of the equipment.

[0027] After the addition is completed, the controller 22 shuts down the pump body 19, the second motor 16 and the first motor 7 in sequence, and each component is reset, waiting for the next addition command. If it is necessary to adjust the addition amount or the addition position, the parameters can be reset through the controller 22. The operation is convenient and efficient, and can effectively meet the automation needs of quantitative addition of additives in feed production.

[0028] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
