Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a sampler, and more particularly to a sampler for testing forage-based total mixed rations. Background Technology

[0002] Forage samplers are important tools for testing the nutritional components of forage and other raw materials, determining whether forage (feed) formulations are scientifically sound, and thus optimizing daily feed formulations.

[0003] In modern animal husbandry, scientific and reasonable feed formulation is the key to ensuring the healthy growth of animals and reducing breeding costs. Adjusting the diet structure based on test results can not only meet the nutritional needs of animals at different growth stages, but also effectively reduce feed costs and improve economic benefits. Scientific sampling is the basis of the experiment in order to ensure the accuracy and reliability of test results.

[0004] Currently, rotary cutting sampling tubes are generally used for deep sampling during forage sampling. The forage is sampled from the inside to ensure that the sample is sufficiently representative. When the rotary cutting sampling tube cuts into the forage pile, a large amount of forage debris is generated during the high-speed rotation cutting process because the fiber structure of the forage itself is relatively loose. These debris can easily be splashed out with the airflow, contaminating the sampling environment. The forage pile has a certain density and hardness, especially after being piled up for a long time, it becomes more compact. During the sampling process, a lot of force needs to be applied to insert the rotary cutting sampling tube into the forage pile, which can easily cause fatigue for the staff. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a sampler for forage-type total mixed ration (TMR) trials, which aims to effectively prevent forage debris from splashing around and contaminating the sampling environment during the sampling process, while also reducing staff fatigue.

[0006] The technical solution is as follows: A sampler for a forage-type total mixed ration (TMR) experiment includes a mounting plate, a guide rod, a lead screw motor, a sliding plate, a telescopic tube, a conical cylinder, a sampling tube, and a drive motor. The guide rod is connected to the mounting plate, and the lead screw motor is mounted on the mounting plate. The sliding plate is slidably connected to the guide rod. The lead screw of the lead screw motor and the sliding plate are connected by threads. The telescopic tube is connected to the sliding plate, and the left end of the telescopic tube is connected to the conical cylinder. The guide rod and the conical cylinder are connected. The lead screw of the lead screw motor and the conical cylinder are rotatably connected. The sampling tube is rotatably connected to the sliding plate and is located inside the telescopic tube. The sampling tube has a discharge port. The drive motor is mounted on the sliding plate, and the output shaft of the drive motor is connected to the sampling tube.

[0007] Optionally, it also includes a cutting ring, with the left end of the sampling tube connected to the cutting ring.

[0008] Optionally, it also includes a protective shell, with the protective shell attached to the skateboard to protect the drive motor, the drive motor being located inside the protective shell.

[0009] Optionally, it also includes a washer ring, with the washer ring connected to the left side of the conical cylinder.

[0010] Optionally, it also includes a grip bar, which is attached to the mounting plate.

[0011] Optionally, it also includes a handle, which is attached to the mounting plate.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: The present invention can drive the sampling tube to rotate through the output shaft of the drive motor, and the lead screw motor can drive the sampling tube to move to the left, so that the sampling tube will be inserted into the hay pile to sample the hay. The automatic insertion of the sampling tube into the hay pile can reduce the labor intensity of the workers. The conical tube can block the debris and prevent the debris from splashing around and polluting the sampling environment. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this does not limit the scope of protection and application of the present invention.

[0019] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2A sampler for a forage-type total mixed ration (TMR) experiment includes a mounting plate 1, a guide rod 2, a lead screw motor 3, a sliding plate 4, a telescopic tube 5, a conical cylinder 6, a sampling tube 7, and a drive motor 9. The guide rod 2 is connected to the rear left side of the mounting plate 1, and the lead screw motor 3 is mounted at the front of the mounting plate 1. The sliding plate 4 is slidably connected to the guide rod 2. The lead screw of the lead screw motor 3 and the sliding plate 4 are connected by threads. The telescopic tube 5 is connected to the middle left side of the sliding plate 4, and the conical cylinder 6 is connected to the left end of the telescopic tube 5. The guide rod 2 and the conical cylinder 6 are connected at the rear. The lead screw of the lead screw motor 3 and the front of the conical cylinder 6 are rotatably connected. The sampling tube 7 is rotatably connected to the middle left side of the sliding plate 4. The sampling tube 7 is located inside the telescopic tube 5. The sampling tube 7 has a discharge port 8 on the right front side. The drive motor 9 is mounted on the middle right side of the sliding plate 4 by bolts. The output shaft of the drive motor 9 is connected to the right end of the sampling tube 7.

[0020] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 It also includes a cutting ring 10, and the left end of the sampling tube 7 is connected to the cutting ring 10.

[0021] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 It also includes a protective shell 11. The protective shell 11 is bolted to the middle right side of the slide plate 4, and the drive motor 9 is located inside the protective shell 11.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 It also includes a washer 12, and the left side of the conical cylinder 6 is connected to the washer 12.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 It also includes a grip bar 13, which is connected to the right side of the mounting plate 1.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 It also includes a handle 14, which is connected to the front left side of the mounting plate 1.

[0025] The worker holds the handle 13 and the grip 14 with both hands, then brings the pad ring 12 into contact with the hay pile. The screw motor 3 then moves the slide plate 4 to the left, shortening the telescopic tube 5. The slide plate 4 moves the sampling tube 7 to the left, which in turn moves the cutting ring 10 to the left, bringing it into contact with the hay pile. The drive motor 9 is then activated, and its output shaft rotates the sampling tube 7 and the cutting ring 10, allowing the sampling tube 7 to be inserted into the hay pile for sampling. This automatic insertion reduces the worker's workload. The cutting ring 10 helps the sampling tube 7 insert better into the hay pile. The conical cylinder 6 blocks debris, preventing it from splashing and contaminating the sampling environment. The pad ring 12 prevents the conical cylinder 6 from sinking into the hay pile. The protective shell 11 protects the drive motor 9 from impacts. The collected hay is discharged through the discharge port 8.
