[0001] This application relates to the field of feed production, and in particular to a feed production system. Background Technology

[0002] In the feed production sector, with the continuous development of the livestock industry, the requirements for feed quality and standards are increasing. Feed fermentation technology, as an important means to improve feed nutritional composition and increase feed utilization, is being used more and more widely.

At the same time, the promotion of fermented feed also helps to drive the sustainable development of the feed industry and meet the market demand for green and environmentally friendly feed.

[0003] However, traditional preparation processes have many shortcomings: the addition of fermenting agents is crude and easily leads to uneven addition, which in turn affects the fermentation effect of feed; the equipment efficiency in the material mixing process is low, resulting in insufficient mixing of materials; and the materials are prone to forming clumps in subsequent processing. These problems not only affect the fermentation effect and pellet quality of feed, but also restrict the continuity and stability of production. Utility Model Content

[0029] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2 This application will be described in further detail.

[0030] This application discloses a feed production system, referring to... Figure 1 The system includes a fermentation agent supply device 1, a material metering device 2, a mixing device 3, and a pellet breaking device 4. The discharge ends of the fermentation agent supply device 1 and the material metering device 2 are connected to the feed end of the mixing device 3, and the discharge end of the mixing device 3 is connected to the feed end of the pellet breaking device 4. This allows the metered fermentation agent and the formulated materials to be mixed, and the mixed materials to be crushed, achieving the effect of more complete feed fermentation and better pellet quality.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2Specifically, the fermentation agent supply device 1 includes a fermentation tank 11, a mixing tank 12, and a spraying tank 13 connected in sequence. The fermentation tank 11 is used to cultivate the inoculum to obtain the desired fermentation agent. The mixing tank 12 is used to mix the fermentation agent. The spraying tank 13 is equipped with a graduated gauge 131 for measuring the fermentation agent. The fermentation tank 11 and the mixing tank 12 can be made of stainless steel and are usually cylindrical in shape. A plastic tank is also acceptable, as long as it meets the requirements. The spraying tank 13 is also a tank structure and can also be made of stainless steel or plastic. The graduated gauge 131 can be a glass measuring component with graduations. An electronic metering sensor is also acceptable, as it accurately measures the amount of fermentation agent using electronic signals. The fermentation tank 11, the mixing tank 12, and the spraying tank 13 are connected by pipes, which can be rubber or metal pipes, to ensure that the fermentation agent can be smoothly transported from the mixing tank 12 to the spraying tank 13. The combination logic of the mixing tank 12 and the seed spraying tank 13 is that the fermenting agent is first mixed in the mixing tank 12, and then the mixed fermenting agent is transported to the seed spraying tank 13 for metering. This ensures that the mixing and metering of the fermenting agent are carried out in an orderly manner and improves the supply accuracy of the fermenting agent.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 Specifically, the mixing tank 12 is equipped with a stirring mechanism 121. Optionally, the stirring mechanism 121 includes a stirring paddle and a drive motor. The stirring paddle is typically made of stainless steel and can be propeller-type or frame-type; alternatively, it can be made of plastic. The drive motor can be a three-phase asynchronous motor, connected to the stirring paddle via a motor shaft, driving the paddle to rotate within the mixing tank 12 to stir the fermenting agent. The stirring mechanism 121 ensures thorough mixing of the fermenting agent within the mixing tank 12, guaranteeing uniform quality and improving fermentation efficiency.

[0033] Specifically, the fermentation agent supply device 1 also includes a first mud pump 14 and a second mud pump 15. The inlet end of the first mud pump 14 is connected to the fermentation tank 11, and the outlet end is connected to the inlet end of the mixing tank 12. The inlet end of the second mud pump 15 is connected to the outlet end of the mixing tank 12, and the outlet end is connected to the inlet end of the seed spraying tank 13. The first mud pump 14 and the second mud pump 15 can be centrifugal pumps or screw pumps, and are usually made of cast iron or stainless steel. The first mud pump 14 transports the fermentation agent from the fermentation tank 11 to the mixing tank 12, and the second mud pump 15 transports the mixed fermentation agent from the mixing tank 12 to the seed spraying tank 13. Through the cooperation of these two mud pumps, a stable delivery of the fermentation agent is achieved, ensuring the continuity of the fermentation agent supply.

[0034] Specifically, the material metering device 2 includes a bucket elevator 21 for lifting the mixing materials and an electronic scale 22 for weighing and measuring the mixing materials. The bucket elevator 21 conveys the mixing materials to the electronic scale 22, which is located above the feed end of the mixing device 3. Optionally, the bucket elevator 21 consists of buckets, a chain, and a drive unit. The buckets are typically made of metal and are square or round in shape; alternatively, they can be plastic buckets. The drive unit can be a motor that drives the buckets to circulate via the chain, lifting the mixing materials onto the electronic scale 22. The electronic scale 22 can be a high-precision weighing device composed of a weighing sensor and a display instrument, capable of accurately measuring the weight of the mixing materials. The combination of the bucket elevator 21 and the electronic scale 22 achieves the lifting and accurate metering of the mixing materials, providing an accurate amount of material for subsequent mixing.

[0035] The weighed ingredients and metered starter culture are then fed into the mixing device 3. Specifically, a seed spraying pump 16 is installed between the discharge end of the seed spraying tank 13 and the inlet end of the mixing device 3. The seed spraying pump 16 can be a diaphragm pump or a gear pump. Its function is to pump the metered starter culture from the seed spraying tank 13 into the mixing device 3, ensuring that the starter culture is accurately added to the ingredients.

[0036] Specifically, mixing device 3 is a mixer. The mixer can be a twin-shaft paddle mixer or a horizontal ribbon mixer. Its working principle is to fully mix the starter culture and ingredients through the rotation of the stirring components. The mixer ensures uniform mixing of the starter culture and ingredients, providing a good foundation for subsequent fermentation.

[0037] Specifically, the mixing unit 3 and the breaking unit 4 are connected by a screw conveyor 5. The screw conveyor 5 consists of a screw shaft, a housing, and a drive motor. The screw shaft is typically made of carbon steel with a galvanized surface, but can be made of stainless steel. The housing is a cylindrical structure made of metal. The drive motor rotates the screw shaft, conveying the material output from the mixing unit 3 to the breaking unit 4. The screw conveyor 5 ensures stable material transport between the mixing unit 3 and the breaking unit 4, improving production continuity.

[0038] Preferably, a discharge bin 6 is provided between the discharge end of the mixing device 3 and the feed end of the screw conveyor 5. The discharge bin 6 is a funnel-shaped structure made of metal, and its function is to allow the material to enter the screw conveyor 5 evenly, ensuring the stability of the conveying.

[0039] Specifically, the agglomeration device 4 is an agglomeration pellet mill. The agglomeration pellet mill consists of crushing blades, a screen, and a drive motor. The crushing blades are typically made of alloy steel and are blade-shaped; alternatively, ceramic crushing blades can be used. The screen is made of metal and has different aperture sizes to screen out appropriately sized particles. The drive motor drives the crushing blades to rotate at high speed, crushing the mixed material and breaking down clumps into fine particles, thus improving the quality of the feed pellets.

[0040] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: This feed production system accurately measures and mixes the fermenting agent through the fermenting agent supply device 1, accurately measures and mixes the materials through the material metering device 2, fully mixes the two through the mixing device 3, and crushes the mixed materials through the breaking device 4. Through reasonable connection and cooperation between the various devices, the system achieves precise control and efficient production of the feed fermentation process. Compared with traditional processes, it solves the problems of uneven addition of fermenting agent, insufficient mixing of materials, and easy clumping of materials, improves the fermentation effect and pellet quality of feed, and ensures the continuity and stability of production. It has made important improvements and contributions to the feed production industry.

[0041] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
