Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model provides a feed preparation and mixing aid device, belonging to the field of feed processing technology. Background Technology

[0002] In modern animal husbandry and aquaculture, feed quality directly affects animal growth, health, and ultimately, farming efficiency. To ensure nutritional balance, it is usually necessary to precisely proportion and uniformly mix various basic raw materials such as corn and soybean meal with various trace elements, vitamins, and medications. Therefore, feed mixing equipment is a crucial step in feed formulation and mixing.

[0003] Existing feed mixing equipment, such as traditional horizontal ribbon mixers or vertical mixers, while capable of mixing materials to a certain extent, still faces several technical bottlenecks. Firstly, for materials with poor flowability or prone to clumping, relying solely on a single stirring method (such as spiral pushing or paddle tumbling) is insufficient to achieve high standards of macroscopic and microscopic uniformity, often resulting in mixing dead zones and incomplete mixing of some materials. Furthermore, during mixing, materials, especially highly viscous ones, easily adhere to the inner wall of the mixing container, forming a residue layer. This not only wastes raw materials but, more seriously, makes thorough cleaning and maintenance difficult. Secondly, existing equipment requires manual addition of various trace additives during each mixing cycle, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, thus limiting its effectiveness. Therefore, this invention provides a feed formulation auxiliary mixing device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model is that the mixing efficiency and uniformity of relying solely on a single stirring method need to be improved. Mixing dead zones often occur, some materials are not fully mixed, and materials easily adhere to the inner wall of the mixing container, forming a residue layer that causes waste. It is also inconvenient to clean and maintain. Furthermore, when adding multiple trace additives, they need to be added manually each time they are mixed, which is relatively time-consuming and labor-intensive. The effectiveness of this product needs to be improved.

[0005] To solve the technical problem, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a feed preparation and mixing aid device, including a counterweight base, and further comprising:

[0006] A C-shaped frame is fixedly installed on the top of the counterweight base. A mixing cylinder is rotatably connected between the upper parts of the inner sidewalls of the C-shaped frame. A drive unit for driving the mixing cylinder to rotate is provided on one sidewall of the C-shaped frame.

[0007] The mixing and scraping part for stirring materials and scraping the inner wall of the mixing cylinder includes a spiral stirring rod. The upper part of the spiral stirring rod is provided with several horizontal and vertical inclined plates around its circumference. The inner wall of the mixing cylinder is provided with a vertical inclined scraper that fits against it. Several connecting rods are provided between the horizontal and vertical inclined plates and the vertical inclined scraper.

[0008] Several ingredient addition cylinders, used for adding seasonings, are located above the mixing cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, the upper sides of the outer wall of the mixing cylinder are symmetrically provided with support rods that are rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the C-shaped frame. The driving unit includes a driving box fixedly installed on one outer side wall of the C-shaped frame. A motor is provided on the outer wall of the driving box. A worm gear fixedly connected to the output end of the motor is rotatably connected to the other inner side wall of the driving box. The end of the support rod near the motor is inserted into the driving box and fixedly connected to a worm wheel that meshes with the worm gear.

[0010] Furthermore, the stirring and scraping section also includes a horizontal plate fixedly installed at the top of the mixing cylinder. A second motor is installed at the top of the horizontal plate, and the output end of the second motor passes through the horizontal plate and is fixedly connected to the top of the spiral stirring rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the ingredient adding cylinder is provided with a feeding pipe positioned above the mixing cylinder, and the feeding pipe is provided with a control valve. There are four ingredient adding cylinders on each side of the C-shaped frame, and two ingredient adding cylinders on the same side are fixedly connected to the upper part of the side wall of the C-shaped frame with V-shaped support plates.

[0012] Furthermore, the spiral stirring rod is placed inside the mixing cylinder, and the horizontal and vertical inclined plates are arranged parallel to the vertical inclined scraper. The horizontal and vertical inclined plates are located outside the spiral stirring rod, and several horizontal bars are provided on the side wall of the horizontal and vertical inclined plates near the mixing cylinder, which are placed outside the spiral stirring rod.

[0013] Furthermore, the mixing cylinder has a discharge port at the center of its bottom, a switch valve is provided on the discharge port, and a collection box is provided on the top of the counterweight base below the discharge port.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This device uses a motor to drive the mixing drum in a fan-shaped reciprocating motion, achieving gravity mixing of materials on a macroscopic scale. Simultaneously, a second motor drives the internal stirring and scraping section to rotate at high speed. The spiral stirring rod, along with horizontal and vertical inclined plates, connecting rods, and crossbars, promotes axial and radial convection, shearing, and diffusion of the materials. Combined with the vertical inclined scraper cleaning the inner wall of the mixing drum, this composite motion mixing significantly improves mixing efficiency and uniformity, effectively eliminates mixing dead zones, ensures full dispersion of various components, avoids material clumping on the inner wall of the mixing drum causing waste, and facilitates cleaning and maintenance. With several ingredient addition cylinders, there is no need for manual addition of multiple auxiliary materials each time mixing, saving time and labor, and greatly improving the effectiveness.

Under the meshing connection between the worm 14 and the worm wheel 15, the worm wheel 15 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the support rod 11 to rotate. This, in turn, drives the mixing drum 3 to rotate forward and backward in an acute-angled fan shape within a certain period of time.

[0026] As per the instruction manual Figure 1 , 3As shown: It also includes a stirring and scraping section 5 for stirring materials and scraping the inner wall of the mixing cylinder 3, including a spiral stirring rod 6.

Furthermore, this utility model is mainly used to protect mechanical devices, so the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail here.

[0029] The principle of this utility model

[0030] Workflow:

[0031] Feeding: Through the top opening of the mixing drum 3, the main materials such as corn flour and soybean meal are added into the drum. At the same time, different kinds of trace additives such as vitamins, minerals, and medicines are loaded into the corresponding ingredient addition drums 10. The control valve on the feed pipe 18 is opened, and specific kinds of auxiliary materials are added to the mixing drum 3 precisely according to the process requirements. There is no need to manually add multiple auxiliary materials each time the mixing is done, which saves time and effort.

[0032] Initiating Mixing: Based on the worm gear transmission ratio, motor 13 rotates forward and backward within a certain time, causing mixing drum 3 to rotate forward and backward in an acute-angled fan shape for a certain time, performing initial macro-mixing. Subsequently, motor 217 is started to drive the spiral stirring rod 6 to rotate, which in turn drives the horizontal and vertical inclined plates 7, vertical inclined scraper 8, connecting rod 9, and horizontal bar 20 to rotate around the spiral stirring rod 6. The rotation of the horizontal and vertical inclined plates 7, connecting rod 9, and horizontal bar 20 can generate additional shearing and tumbling action on the material, effectively breaking up any lumps that may form, making the feed mixing more uniform. The rotation of the vertical inclined scraper 8 scrapes the material adhering to the mixing drum 3 off the drum wall, allowing it to re-participate in the mixing. After mixing, it can prevent residual material from remaining on the inner wall of the mixing drum 3, making it easy to clean and facilitate subsequent manual cleaning and maintenance, and preventing waste caused by residual feed not being discharged.

[0033] Mixing completion and unloading: After the set mixing time, stop the two motors, adjust the mixing drum 3 to the downward position of the discharge port 21, open the switch valve of the discharge port, and discharge the finished feed into the collection box 22 below to complete one production cycle.

[0034] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the accompanying drawings are only one embodiment of the present invention; the actual structure is not limited thereto. In conclusion, if those skilled in the art are inspired by this description and design similar structures and embodiments without departing from the inventive spirit of the present invention, such designs should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
