Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of feed mixing, specifically relating to a feed mixing device for livestock specialists. Background Technology
[0002] In the livestock farming industry, uniform feed mixing is a crucial step in ensuring the healthy growth of livestock and poultry and improving farming efficiency. As the core equipment for achieving this, the performance of feed mixing devices directly affects the mixing quality, processing efficiency, and farming costs. Vertical feed mixing devices, due to their simple structure, minimal damage to feed fiber structure, and slow wear, are widely used in small and medium-sized farms and in scenarios where the integrity of feed ingredients is critical.
[0003] The working principle of existing vertical feed mixing devices mostly relies on a circulatory mixing mode formed by auger lifting and natural material falling: the auger conveys the material from the bottom to the top of the device, and the material naturally falls back to the bottom under gravity, achieving mixing through repeated cycles. However, because the material always moves along a "lift-fall" circulatory path during the mixing process, a large amount of material tends to accumulate continuously at the bottom of the device under the influence of gravity and circulatory impact, gradually creating a compaction phenomenon. This compaction not only causes the material to form clumps or blocks at the bottom, affecting the uniformity of mixing, but also significantly reduces the unloading efficiency. When unloading is required, the compacted material cannot be discharged quickly through the bottom discharge port by its own gravity, often requiring additional pushing mechanisms or even manual intervention to clean up residues, prolonging the unloading time and increasing energy consumption. Utility Model Content
[0004] (1) Technical problems to be solved
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a feed mixing device for livestock farmers. This device addresses the problem that in existing technologies, materials move along a continuous "lift-fall" cyclic path during mixing, leading to a large accumulation of material at the bottom of the device under gravity and cyclic impact. This compaction not only causes the material to clump or agglomerate at the bottom, affecting mixing uniformity, but also significantly reduces unloading efficiency. When unloading is required, the compacted material cannot be quickly discharged through the bottom discharge port under its own weight, often requiring additional pushing mechanisms or even manual intervention to clean up residues, thus prolonging unloading time and increasing energy consumption.

[0014] (3) Beneficial effects
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] This invention, by setting up a stirring mechanism, when the output shaft of the motor is started and drives the rotating rod to rotate, the rotating shaft is driven by the transmission of the driving pulley, belt and driven pulley, causing the upper reciprocating screw to rotate together. This causes the outer sliding shuttle and adjusting plate to move up and down repeatedly at the outer end of the reciprocating screw, causing the loosening ring at the outer end of the round rod to move up and down repeatedly in the storage tank.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] This specific embodiment is a feed mixing device for livestock farmers, and its structural schematic diagram is shown below. Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the system includes a storage tank 1 for mixing livestock feed. A feed pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the storage tank 1. A support column 3 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the storage tank 1. A support plate 4 is welded to the lower end of the support column 3. A discharge pipe 5 is fixedly connected to the left end of the feed pipe 2. A valve is installed inside the discharge pipe 5. Mixing mechanisms are provided at both the inner and outer ends of the storage tank 1. The mixing mechanism includes a base plate 601 fixedly connected to the outer side of the lower end of the support column 3. A valve is installed at the upper middle position of the base plate 601. The storage tank 1 is equipped with a motor 602. A rotating rod 603 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the motor 602's output shaft. An auger blade 604 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating rod 603. A top plate 605 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the storage tank 1. An upper rotating hole is formed in the middle of the interior of the top plate 605, and a lower rotating hole is formed in the middle of the lower end of the discharge pipe 2. The outer side of the upper end of the rotating rod 603 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the upper rotating hole, and the lower outer side of the rotating rod 603 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the lower rotating hole. Therefore, when the motor 602 is started and its output shaft rotates, driving the rotating rod 603 to rotate, its upper and lower ends will rotate within the upper and lower rotating holes, thus ensuring that the rotating rod 603 remains stably rotating within the storage tank 1.
[0027] Among them, the lower outer side of the rotating rod 603 is fixedly connected to the driving pulley 606, the outer end of the driving pulley 606 is sleeved with a belt 607, and the end of the belt 607 away from the driving pulley 606 is sleeved to the outer end of the driven pulley 615. A bearing 608 is installed at the right end of the top plate 605. A reciprocating screw 609 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the bearing 608. A shuttle 610 is installed at the outer end of the reciprocating screw 609. An adjusting plate 611 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the shuttle 610. A round rod 612 is welded to the front and rear ends of the lower side of the adjusting plate 611. A loosening ring 613 is fixedly connected at equal intervals to the outer end of the round rod 612. A rotating shaft 614 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the reciprocating screw 609. A driven pulley 615 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the lower end of the rotating shaft 614. Limiting holes are opened at the front and rear ends of the bearing 608 inside the top plate 605. The outer side of the round rod 612 is slidably connected to the inner side of the limiting hole. A round hole is opened at the lower right end of the storage tank 1. The middle position of the outer side of the rotating shaft 614 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the round hole. Thus, when the output shaft of the starting motor 602 rotates and drives the rotating rod 603 to rotate, the rotating shaft 614 rotates through the transmission of the driving pulley 606, belt 607 and driven pulley 615, driving the upper reciprocating screw 609 to rotate together. This causes the outer end of the sliding shuttle 610 and the adjusting plate 611 to move up and down repeatedly at the outer end of the reciprocating screw 609, causing the loosening ring 613 at the outer end of the round rod 612 to move up and down repeatedly in the storage tank 1. This continuously moves the feed being stirred in the storage tank 1 up and down, preventing the feed in the storage tank 1 from being compressed during the stirring process and making it difficult to feed.
[0028] Cooperate Figure 5As shown, a sealing unit is provided above the storage tank 1. The sealing unit includes a sector-shaped plate 701 hinged to the front and rear ends of the top plate 605. A threaded rod 702 is connected to the end of the sector-shaped plate 701 furthest from the top plate 605. A through-hole is formed at the middle of the end of the sector-shaped plate 701 furthest from the top plate 605. The outer side of the threaded rod 702 is threaded to the inner side of the threaded hole. A rotating handle 703 is welded to the upper end of the threaded rod 702. Threaded grooves are formed at the front and rear ends of the storage tank 1. The outer side of the lower end of the threaded rod 702 is threaded to the inner side of the threaded groove. The lower side of the sector-shaped plate 701 abuts against the upper side of the storage tank 1. By opening the sector-shaped plates 701 at the front and rear ends of the top plate 605, a large area of the upper part of the storage tank 1 is left unsealed, allowing feed to enter the storage tank 1 more quickly for mixing, thus increasing the feeding speed of the mixing device. Therefore, after the feed to be mixed is poured into the storage tank 1, the fan-shaped plates 701 at both ends of the top plate 605 are rotated to the front and rear ends of the upper side of the storage tank 1. Then, the threaded rod 702 is threaded into the threaded hole inside the fan-shaped plate 701 and then threaded into the threaded groove above the storage tank 1. This fixes the fan-shaped plate 701 to the upper end of the storage tank 1, completely sealing the upper end of the storage tank 1 and preventing dust from being generated during the feed mixing process, which would affect the nearby working environment.
[0029] Working principle: When mixing feed, feed is first poured into storage tank 1 from both ends of the top plate 605 above the storage tank 1. Then, the sector plate 701 is rotated to both ends of the storage tank 1. The threaded rod 702 is then threaded into the threaded hole inside the sector plate 701 and then threaded into the threaded groove above the storage tank 1. The sector plate 701 is fixed above the storage tank 1 to seal the upper part of the storage tank 1. Then, the motor 602 is turned on, and its output shaft rotates, driving the rotating rod 603 to rotate, which causes the auger blades 604 to rotate, conveying the feed in the storage tank 1 upwards and then falling down for mixing. At the same time, the feed is mixed by the drive belt. The transmission of pulley 606, belt 607 and driven pulley 615 causes the rotating shaft 614 to rotate, which in turn drives the reciprocating screw 609 at the upper end to rotate together. This causes the outer shuttle 610 and adjusting plate 611 to move up and down repeatedly at the outer end of the reciprocating screw 609, which in turn drives the loosening ring 613 at the outer end of the round rod 612 to move up and down repeatedly in the storage tank 1. This continuously moves the feed being stirred in the storage tank 1 up and down, keeping the feed in the storage tank 1 loose. After the plastic is stirred, the motor 602 is turned off and the valve in the discharge pipe 5 is opened, so that the stirred feed in the storage tank 1 is discharged and collected through the discharge pipe 5.
[0030] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
