[0013] like Figure 1-3As shown, an automatic feed mixing and dispensing machine for livestock includes a U-shaped support frame 1. The U-shaped support frame 1 is equipped with a base 2, a feed trough 3, a PLC control cabinet 4, a raw material bin 5, a support frame 6, and a transmission box 7. The base 2 is symmetrically welded to both sides of the bottom of the U-shaped support frame 1. The feed trough 3 is fixed to the lower front end of the U-shaped support frame 1 with screws. The PLC control cabinet 4 is fixed to the upper left side of the U-shaped support frame 1 with screws. The raw material bin 5 is fixed to the top front end of the U-shaped support frame 1 with screws at equal intervals. The bottom of the raw material bin 5... An electromagnetic discharge valve 8 is threadedly connected to the outlet. A support frame 6 is symmetrically mounted and fixed to the middle two sides of the front end of the U-shaped support frame 1 with screws. A transmission box 7 is mounted and fixed to the middle left side of the front end of the U-shaped support frame 1 with screws. Support columns 9 are mounted and fixed between the bottom front ends of the feed trough 3 and the top of the base 2 with screws. A stepper motor 10 is mounted and fixed to the middle left side of the feed trough 3 with screws. The main shaft of the stepper motor 10 passes through and extends into the feed trough 3, and a U-shaped stirring rod 11 is mounted and fixed with screws. The main shaft of the U-shaped stirring rod 11 is on the right side... The end is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the feed trough 3. The inner end of the support frame 6 is rotatably connected to the support platform 12. The top of the support platform 12 is fixed with load cells 13 by screws at equal intervals. The top of the load cells 13 is placed on the feed box 14. T-shaped shafts 15 are symmetrically fixed to the outer sides of the feed box 14 by screws. The T-shaped shafts 15 are nested on the support platform 12. A linear bearing is fixed between the T-shaped shafts 15 and the support platform 12 by screws. The rear end of the transmission box 7 is symmetrically fixed with shaft seats 16 by screws. The top of the shaft seats 16 is... The second stepper motor 17 is fixedly mounted on the support platform 12 by screws. The main shaft of the second stepper motor 17 passes through and extends into the inner side of the upper bearing 16, and a worm gear 18 is fixedly mounted on it by screws. The lower end of the main shaft of the worm gear 18 is rotatably connected to the lower bearing 16.

[0014] Specific usage: Place the raw materials into the raw material bin 5. When mixing and feeding the feed, open the electromagnetic discharge valve 8 to transfer the raw materials from the raw material bin 5 into the corresponding feed box 14. At this time, the weighing sensor 13 weighs the raw materials in the feed box 14. When the raw materials in the feed box 14 reach the specified weight, close the electromagnetic discharge valve 8 to stop feeding. After all raw materials have reached the specified weight, start the second stepper motor 17 to drive the worm gear 18 to rotate. The rotation of the worm gear 18 drives the worm wheel 19 to rotate. The rotating mechanism causes the support platform 12 to flip, which in turn causes the feed box 14 to flip outward, allowing the raw materials to be placed into the feed trough 3. At this time, the stepper motor 10 is started to drive the U-shaped stirring rod 11 to rotate, which mixes the raw materials in the feed trough 3. After the U-shaped stirring rod 11 has rotated for a certain period of time, the raw materials in the feed trough 3 are evenly mixed. The stepper motor 10 then drives the protruding end of the U-shaped stirring rod 11 to rotate and move to the bottom of the inner side of the feed trough 3, at which point the livestock can go to the feed trough 3 to eat.
