Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mixing technology, specifically to a feed mixer that prevents feed from clumping. Background Technology
[0002] Feed mixers are important equipment used in the processing of animal feed for poultry, livestock and other animals. Their main function is to mix various raw materials evenly to ensure the balanced distribution of various nutrients in the feed. However, existing feed mixers still have certain defects in use, such as:
[0003] Most existing feed mixers directly mix feed. However, this can lead to problems. Large particles may be mixed in the feed ingredients, making them unsuitable for chickens and other livestock. Additionally, the feed ingredients may clump together, affecting mixing. The feed can also easily clump together on the inner wall of the mixer, and most existing feed mixers cannot prevent clumping. Furthermore, most existing feed mixers require manual weighing before adding the feed, which necessitates calculating the proportions, making the process cumbersome and inconvenient.

An outer cylinder 301 rotates through a bearing above the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. A disturbance rod 302 is rotatably connected to the outer cylinder 301 through a bearing. A drive motor 303 is connected to the upper surface of the mixing tank 1 via a motor mount. The output end of the drive motor 303 is connected to a small bevel gear 304 via a coupling.

A longitudinal bevel gear 315 is rotatably connected to one side of the slide rod 311. The longitudinal bevel gear 315 is meshed with one side of the upper bevel gear 305 and the lower bevel gear 306. An electric push rod 312 is connected to one side of the L-shaped plate 310. The moving end of the electric push rod 312 is connected to the slide rod 311. A longitudinal positioning plate 313 is connected to the outer side of the slide rod 311 near the longitudinal bevel gear 315. A transverse positioning plate 314 is connected to the outer side of the outer cylinder 301 near the lower bevel gear 306.
[0027] In practice, the electric actuator 312 is activated to push the slide bar 311 to slide, moving the longitudinal bevel gear 315 away from the upper bevel gear 305 and the lower bevel gear 306. At the same time, the slide bar 311 engages in the transverse positioning plate 314, fixing the position of the outer cylinder 301. Then, the drive motor 303 is activated to drive the upper bevel gear 305 to rotate the turbulence rod 302, mixing the feed.

When weight sensor 405 detects that the weight of storage tank 403 has decreased to the required weight, solenoid valve 406 is closed, and screw conveyor 402 sends the feed in loading tank 401 into mixing tank 1 for mixing, so that the feed mixer can easily make the ratio.
[0030] In summary: When using this feed mixer for preventing feed caking, firstly, various feeds are poured into multiple storage tanks 403 respectively. The controller 2 is operated to set the ratio, and the solenoid valve 406 is opened to allow the feed in the storage tanks 403 to fall into the loading tank 401 in proportion. The feed is then sent into the mixing tank 1 by the screw conveyor 402. The drive motor 303 is started to drive the disturbance rod 302 to stir and mix the feed. Then, the electric push rod 312 is started to engage the longitudinal bevel gear 315 with the upper bevel gear 305 and the lower bevel gear 306. The drive motor 303 is started to drive the support plate 307 and the disturbance rod 302 to rotate in opposite directions, scraping off the feed adhering to the inner wall of the mixing tank 1. The feed, along with large pieces of feed, is broken up by the cross bar 309 and the disturbance rod 302. Then, the valve at the bottom of the mixing tank 1 is opened to remove the mixed feed.
