If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. Furthermore, descriptions involving "preferred," "second-best," etc., in this utility model are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, features defined as "preferred" or "second-best" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.
[0025] like Figure 1-5 As shown, an easy-to-install feeder includes a main housing 1, a cover 2, and a base 3. The main housing 1 and the cover 2 are hinged together, and the main housing 1 and the base 3 are detachably connected. A hopper 4 is provided inside the main housing 1. The base 3 is provided with an upper feeding housing 51 and a lower feeding housing 52. The rear end of the upper feeding housing 51 is connected to an upper mounting housing 61, and the rear end of the lower feeding housing 52 is connected to a lower mounting housing 62. The upper mounting housing 61 and the lower mounting housing 62 are respectively provided with an upper motor slot 611 and a lower motor slot 621 on their sides. The upper feeding housing 51 and the lower feeding housing 52 form a closed feeding tube 5, and a feeding channel is formed between them. The upper mounting housing 61 and the lower mounting housing 62 form a motor mounting base 6, and the upper mounting housing 61 and the lower mounting housing 62 form a motor mounting base 6. A cavity is formed between 62. The upper motor slot 611 and the lower motor slot 621 form a motor slot through which the motor passes. The upper rear end of the upper feeding housing 51 has an inlet 511 that connects to the discharge end of the hopper 4 and communicates with the feeding channel. The lower front end of the lower feeding housing 52 has a discharge port 521 that communicates with the feeding channel. One side of the base 3 has a throwing port 31 that communicates with the discharge port 521. The feeding channel has a pusher 7 that moves the feed to the discharge port 521. The cavity of the motor mounting base 6 has a pusher motor transmission assembly 81 that is connected to one end of the pusher 7. The pusher motor 82 is fixed on the pusher motor transmission assembly 81 and is connected to the pusher motor transmission assembly 81. The end of the pusher motor 82 extends out of the motor mounting base 6 through the motor slot. The pusher 7 is a pusher screw.
[0026] The upper feeding housing 51 and the lower feeding housing 52 form a closed feeding tube 5, which facilitates the installation of the pusher 7 into the feeding channel of the closed feeding tube 5. An integrally connected upper mounting housing 61 is provided at the rear end of the upper feeding housing 51, and an integrally connected lower mounting housing 62 is provided at the rear end of the lower feeding housing 52. This allows the upper mounting housing 61 and the lower mounting housing 62 to quickly form a motor mounting base 6, which facilitates the quick positioning and installation of the pusher motor transmission assembly 81 into the receiving cavity of the motor mounting base 6, and ensures a tight transmission connection between the pusher motor transmission assembly 81 and the pusher 7. On the other hand, the pusher motor 82 is fixedly connected to the pusher motor transmission assembly 81, ensuring a tight transmission connection between the pusher motor 82 and the pusher motor transmission assembly 81. The end of the pusher motor 82 extends out of the motor mounting base 6 through the motor slot, reducing the volume of the motor mounting base 6 and facilitating production assembly.
[0027] When the feed is loaded into the main housing 1 and the pusher motor 82 is working, the feed enters the feeding channel of the feeding closed pipe 5 through the feed hopper 4 from the feed inlet 511. The pusher motor 82 drives the pusher 7 to rotate through the pusher motor transmission assembly 81, thereby moving the feed from the feed inlet 511 to the discharge port 521, and falling from the discharge port 521, and finally being thrown out from the discharge port 31.
[0028] like Figure 2-5 As shown, the output end of the pusher motor drive assembly 81 is connected to the pusher output shaft 83. The pusher output shaft 83 passes through the rear end face of the feeding closed tube 5 and is connected to the rear end of the pusher 7 for transmission. By setting the pusher output shaft 83, the pusher motor drive assembly 81 and the pusher 7 are tightly connected for transmission.
[0029] like Figure 4-5 As shown, the front and rear sides of the pusher motor transmission assembly 81 are respectively provided with positioning protrusions 84, and the front and rear inner walls of the upper housing 61 and the lower housing 62 of the mounting base are respectively provided with positioning grooves 63 that cooperate with the positioning protrusions 84, so that the pusher motor transmission assembly 81 and the pusher 7 are tightly connected in transmission, and also prevent the pusher motor 82 and the pusher motor transmission assembly 81 from vibrating in the motor mounting base 6, which would affect the tightness of the transmission connection.
[0030] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the upper edge of the hopper 4 is connected to the inner sidewall near the lower end of the main housing 1, and the hopper 4 and the main housing 1 are integrated. The single-layer structure of the feeder main housing 1 saves materials and reduces the overall weight of the feeder.
[0031] like Figure 2-3 As shown in Figures 6-7, the base 3 has a feeding chamber 32 that communicates with the feeding inlet 521 and the feeding outlet 31 respectively. The bottom surface of the feeding chamber 32 has a feeding disc 9 that, by rotating, throws the feed falling from the feeding inlet 521 out of the feeding outlet 31. The base 3 has a feeding motor assembly 10 that is driven and connected to the feeding disc 9. When the feeder is working, after the feed enters the feeding disc 9 in the feeding chamber 32 through the feeding inlet 521, the feeding disc 9 throws the feed out of the feeding outlet 31 under the rotation of the feeding motor assembly 10.
[0032] like Figure 6-7 As shown, the throwing motor assembly 10 includes a throwing motor 101 and a throwing motor transmission assembly 102. The rotating end of the throwing motor 101 is connected to the input end of the throwing motor transmission assembly 102 for transmission, and the output end of the throwing motor transmission assembly 102 is connected to the throwing disk 9 for transmission. When the throwing motor assembly 10 is working, the throwing motor 101 rotates, and drives the throwing disk 9 to rotate and throw material through the throwing motor transmission assembly 102.
[0033] like Figure 6-7As shown, the throwing motor drive assembly 102 is located on the lower side of the base 3, reducing the installation space inside the base 3 and facilitating the installation and maintenance of the throwing motor drive assembly 102. The upper side of the base 3 is provided with a base groove 33, which allows the throwing motor 101 to be quickly positioned and securely installed on the base 3. The throwing motor 101 is located in the base groove 33, with the rotating end of the throwing motor 101 facing downward and passing through the base groove 33 to connect to the input end of the throwing motor drive assembly 102. The output end of the throwing motor drive assembly 102 is connected to a throwing output shaft 103, which faces upward and passes through the base 3 to connect to the throwing disk 9.
[0034] like Figure 7 As shown, the material throwing motor transmission assembly 102 includes a gearbox 1021, which contains a plurality of sequentially meshing gears 1022. The rotating end of the material throwing motor 101 extends into the gearbox 1021 and is connected to the input gear 1022. The material throwing output shaft 103 extends out of the gearbox 1021 and is connected to the output gear 1022. Different gears 1022 can be set to adjust the transmission ratio of the material throwing motor transmission assembly 102.
[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the inventive concept of this utility model and the contents of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
