Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet food processing technology, specifically a mixing and stirring device for pet food processing. Background Technology
[0002] Pet food is divided into pet daily rations, daily ration supplements, pet health foods, pet snacks, prescription foods, etc. It is a type of food specially provided for pets and small animals. It is a high-end animal food that is between human food and traditional livestock feed. Its main function is to provide various pets with the most basic life guarantee, growth and development and health-related nutrients. During the processing of pet food, various ingredients are often mixed together and then processed into various shapes such as pellets and strips to ensure the comprehensiveness of pet food nutrition. For example, announcement number CN221753060U, entitled "A Stirring Device for Pet Food Processing," includes a base, a bracket fixedly mounted on the top of the base, a stirring tank rotatably mounted on the bracket, a top cover covering the top of the stirring tank, a first motor fixedly mounted on the top of the top cover, a stirring rod fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, a second motor fixedly mounted on one side of the base, a crank fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor, a connecting rod hinged to one end of the crank, and the other end of the connecting rod hinged to the stirring tank. Through the arrangement of the first motor, stirring rod, second motor, crank, and connecting rod, when processing pet food materials, the second motor can be activated to drive the crank to rotate, causing the crank to drive the connecting rod to rotate, which in turn causes the stirring tank to swing back and forth, thereby improving the stirring effect of the materials within the stirring tank.
[0003] Existing mixing devices improve uniformity by driving the mixing tank to oscillate. While this mixing structure can solve some of the mixing uniformity problems, this method easily leads to a decrease in the stability of the mixing device, especially for large-volume and heavy mixing tanks. Under this method, it is difficult to drive the device to oscillate, thus affecting the mixing effect. Therefore, it does not meet the current needs. In response, a mixing device for pet food processing is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0011] Preferably, a conveying auger is installed inside the outer cylinder, and a first motor is installed at one end of the conveying auger.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: (1) In this utility model, a conical mixing cylinder is added, and a multi-stage stirring structure is driven by a third motor to premix some materials. The materials are processed in two ways. The main material is fed from the feeding component to the conveying component, and then sent to the mixing tank through the conveying component. The auxiliary material is pre-treated through the conical mixing cylinder and then enters the mixing tank through the discharge pipe. Compared with the design of a single mixing tank, it can classify and pre-mix materials based on different materials, and adapt to the mixing and stirring requirements in different pet food processing.
[0013] (2) In this utility model, the second motor is used to drive the stirring rod to rotate, and the spiral stirring blades follow the rotation to stir and mix the internal stirring materials. The stirring blades adopt a spiral structure, which can improve the internal stirring and mixing range, improve the stirring and mixing uniformity, and effectively improve the stirring and mixing effect. The third motor drives the shaft to rotate, and the three sets of ring-shaped stirring frames rotate with the shaft, thereby stirring and mixing the premixed material in the conical mixing cylinder. During the stirring process of the stirring frame rotating, the bottom stirring blades follow the rotation to stir the discharge end of the conical mixing cylinder, avoid blockage at this point, and achieve the effect of unblocking the discharge. The above structure uses two different stirring components to stir and mix two different stirring positions, which effectively improves the stirring uniformity of the materials.
