Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of livestock equipment technology, specifically relating to a waste material collection structure and a waste material collection vehicle. Background Technology

[0002] In the daily feeding management of livestock farms such as cattle and sheep, the remaining forage in the feeding passages must be thoroughly cleaned before each feeding to ensure the hygiene of the feeding environment and the health of the animals. Currently, most farms still rely mainly on manual labor for this cleaning, resulting in a large labor input and high labor intensity. Leftover feed collection vehicles are specialized equipment used in farms to efficiently collect various types of leftover forage in the feeding passages, which can alleviate the burden of manual cleaning to some extent. However, in practical application, existing leftover feed collection vehicles for cattle farms still have several technical defects, affecting cleaning efficiency and operational sustainability. First, the efficiency of leftover feed transfer is low, often requiring a long operating cycle to completely collect all the remaining forage, thus restricting the overall efficiency of the feeding process. Second, during the collection process, the collecting mechanism comes into direct contact with the ground, generating significant friction, which easily leads to severe wear and tear on the passage surface. After long-term operation, the surface flatness decreases, not only increasing the difficulty of subsequent cleaning but also making it more difficult to completely remove the remaining forage, creating a vicious cycle. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of existing technologies, a waste material collection structure and waste material collection vehicle are proposed to solve the technical problems of long waste material collection time and severe wear and tear on the floor of the feeding passage.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a residual material collection structure, including a cylinder, on which a feeding blade and a spiral blade are provided. The spiral blade includes a first spiral blade and a second spiral blade with different directions of rotation. The feeding blade is located between the first spiral blade and the second spiral blade. A plurality of feeding blades are arranged parallel to each other and spaced apart along the circumference of the cylinder, and the lengths of two adjacent feeding blades are different.

[0005] The technical solution is further configured such that the feeding blade includes a feeding bracket and a feeding plate, one end face of the feeding bracket is connected to the cylinder, and the other end face extends radially along the cylinder and is detachably connected to the feeding plate.

[0006] The technical solution is further configured such that the material-pushing plate is located between the material-pushing bracket and the material-pushing fixing plate, and the distance between the material-pushing plate and the central axis of the cylinder is adjustable. The material-pushing plate is made of elastic wear-resistant material.

[0007] The technical solution is further configured such that the feeding blade includes a first feeding blade and a second feeding blade arranged at intervals, wherein the length of the first feeding blade is greater than the length of the second feeding blade. The two ends of the first feeding blade are connected to the first spiral blade and the second spiral blade, respectively, and there are channels for grass to pass through between the two ends of the second feeding blade and the first spiral blade and the second spiral blade.

[0008] The technical solution is further configured such that the first spiral blade and the second spiral blade are symmetrically arranged and have the same structure, both including a collection bracket and a collection blade; One end face of the collecting bracket is connected to the cylinder, and the other end face is detachably connected to the collecting blade.

[0009] The technical solution is further configured such that the collecting blade is located between the collecting bracket and the collecting fixing plate, and the collecting blade is made of an elastic wear-resistant material.

[0010] The technical solution is further configured such that the first spiral blade and the second spiral blade are each spaced apart by at least two blades.

[0011] The technical solution is further configured to include a housing, wherein the end of the cylinder is rotatably connected to the housing via a connecting shaft. Secondly, this utility model provides a waste material collection vehicle, including the aforementioned waste material collection structure.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The first and second spiral blades enable bidirectional lateral feeding. The short feeding blades, together with the first and second spiral blades, reserve feeding space to prevent material jamming. The long feeding blades can push the grass collected by the first and second spiral blades out of the residual material collection structure to the maximum extent, thereby improving collection efficiency.

[0013] 2. The feed feeding plate and spiral blades are made of elastic and wear-resistant materials to reduce the risk of jamming and reduce wear on the floor of the feeding passage. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0016] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Based on the embodiments in this application, other similar embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Furthermore, directional terms mentioned in the following embodiments, such as "up," "down," "left," and "right," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings; therefore, the directional terms used are for illustrative purposes and not for limiting the invention.

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0018] Example 1 According to an embodiment of this utility model, a waste material collection structure is provided. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 6 Its core lies in significantly improving the efficiency of leftover material collection and reducing wear on the floor of the feeding passage by optimizing the layout, structure and materials of the feeding blades and spiral blades.

[0019] The waste material collection structure 600 mainly includes a cylinder 100, a shell 700, and a first spiral blade 200, a second spiral blade 300, a first material-dispensing blade 400, and a second material-dispensing blade 500 mounted on the cylinder 100. The cylinder 100, as the core load-bearing component, is rotatably connected to the shell 700 at both ends via connecting shafts (not fully shown in the figure). A power device (such as a hydraulic motor or electric motor) drives the cylinder 100 to rotate relative to the shell 700, thereby causing the first spiral blade 200, the second spiral blade 300, the first material-dispensing blade 400, and the second material-dispensing blade 500 to work and complete the collection of forage.

[0020] In one embodiment of the waste collection structure, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The first helical blade 200 and the second helical blade 300 are symmetrically arranged on the cylinder 100, and their helical directions are opposite.

[0021] Optionally, the first helical blade 200 includes a first helical blade a 204 and a first helical blade b 205, and the second helical blade 300 includes a second helical blade a 301 and a second helical blade b 302. This multi-blade structure with spacing not only enhances the overall mechanical strength but also achieves segmented and efficient collection.

[0022] Optionally, each helical blade (taking the first helical blade 200 as an example) is fixedly connected to the cylinder 100 via the collecting bracket 201. The collecting blade 202 is clamped and fixed between the collecting bracket 201 and the collecting fixing plate 203 by fasteners such as bolts, forming a detachable connection, which facilitates individual replacement after wear without replacing the entire assembly.

[0023] In one embodiment of the waste collection structure, please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The feeding blades are disposed in the region between the first spiral blade 200 and the second spiral blade 300. One of the key improvements of this embodiment is that the feeding blades are not of a single length, but are composed of a first feeding blade 400 and a second feeding blade 500 of different lengths, with the length of the first feeding blade 400 being greater than the length of the second feeding blade 500. They are arranged parallel and spaced apart along the circumference of the cylinder 100.

[0024] Optionally, two adjacent feeding blades may have different lengths, i.e., the first feeding blade 400 and the second feeding blade 500 may be set alternately.

[0025] Optionally, each material-dispensing blade (taking the first material-dispensing blade 400 as an example) has a structure similar to that of a spiral blade, including a material-dispensing bracket 401 and a material-dispensing plate 402. One end of the material-dispensing bracket 401 is fixed to the cylinder 100, and the other end extends radially. The material-dispensing plate 402 is clamped and fixed between the material-dispensing bracket 401 and the material-dispensing fixing plate 403. More preferably, the material-dispensing bracket 401 is provided with an oblong hole extending radially along the cylinder 100, which can adjust the installation position of the material-dispensing plate 402 between the material-dispensing fixing plate 403 and the material-dispensing bracket 401, thereby adjusting the distance between the material-dispensing plate 402 and the central axis of the cylinder 100, thus adapting to different thicknesses of residual material or different degrees of uneven ground, maintaining a highly efficient material-dispensing effect while avoiding excessive compaction of the ground. Similarly, the material-dispensing plate 402 is preferably made of an elastic wear-resistant material.

[0026] As the leftover food collection vehicle moves forward along the feeding channel, and the cylinder 100 is driven to rotate, the working process is as follows: When the first helical blade 200 and the second helical blade 300 rotate in opposite directions, they efficiently and evenly gather the forage from the left and right sides of the channel towards the central area. The shorter second feeding blade 500 has a channel between its end and the first helical blade 200 and the second helical blade 300 for the forage to pass through, providing ample space for the forage to enter and effectively preventing large clumps of forage from clogging (jamming) at the entrance. Subsequently, the longer first feeding blade 400 (whose end connects to the collecting blade) generates a strong axial pushing force on the forage gathered in the center, thoroughly and quickly pushing it into the forage lifting and conveying mechanism behind it, where it is lifted and transported to the inside of the collecting box.

[0027] Example 2 Please see Figures 1 to 6 To further optimize the anti-jamming performance and achieve ultimate protection for the ground, this embodiment makes further improvements to the collecting blade 202 and the material-pulling plate 402.

[0028] The collecting blade 202 can be made of an elastic, wear-resistant material, preferably rubber or polyurethane elastomer. More preferably, the Shore A hardness of the collecting blade 202 is between 50A and 90A, for example, 70A. Within this hardness range, it maintains sufficient rigidity to effectively push the forage while also possessing good elastic deformation capability.

[0029] There is a gap between the collecting blade 202 and the inner wall of the housing 700. When a hard foreign object (such as a small stone or metal shaving) enters this gap, a conventional rigid blade will collide with it, causing the equipment to jam, increase noise, or even break the blade. In this embodiment, the collecting blade 202, made of an elastic material, forms an elastic contact with the inner wall of the housing 700 during rotation. When it encounters a foreign object slightly larger than the gap, the blade will locally undergo elastic deformation, allowing the foreign object to "squeeze" through, and then quickly return to its original shape, thereby greatly reducing the risk of jamming and improving the reliability and adaptability of the equipment.

[0030] During collection operations, the collecting blades 202 make soft contact with the ground or channel surface. This not only significantly reduces scratches on the channel floor but also absorbs impacts and vibrations during operation, reducing overall machine noise and improving the operating environment. Furthermore, it adapts better to uneven ground, ensuring uniform collection without any dead zones.

[0031] Optionally, the material feeding plate 402 may also be made of the same elastic wear-resistant material to achieve a uniform anti-jamming and wear-reducing effect across the entire working width.

[0032] Example 3 Please see Figures 1 to 6 In this embodiment, the detachable connection method of the collecting blade 202 and the material feeding plate 402 has been optimized, aiming to further improve the maintenance efficiency of the equipment and eliminate potential material jamming risks.

[0033] The detachable connection between the collecting bracket 201, the collecting blade 202, and the collecting fixing plate 203 is achieved using carriage bolts. The threaded part of the carriage bolt passes through the through holes in the collecting fixing plate 203 and the collecting blade 202, and then engages with the threaded hole in the collecting bracket 201, or a nut is tightened onto the back of the collecting bracket 201. Similarly, this connection method can also be applied to the feeding blade, meaning that the feeding fixing plate 403, the feeding plate 402, and the feeding bracket 401 are also connected using carriage bolts.

[0034] The head of the carriage bolt is a smooth, round ball with a square neck underneath. During installation, this square neck engages with a pre-drilled square hole on the collecting fixing plate 203 or the material-ejecting fixing plate 403. When tightening the nut from the other side, the fit between the square neck and the square hole effectively prevents the bolt from rotating, allowing operators to tighten or loosen the bolt using only a wrench on the nut side. This eliminates the need for fixing the bolt head, saving time and effort, and is particularly suitable for situations where on-site maintenance space is limited and frequent replacement of wear parts is required, significantly reducing labor intensity and time costs.

[0035] Traditional hexagonal or socket head cap screws often have protruding edges and grooves, which can easily entangle grass fibers and create new jamming points. The carriage screw used in this embodiment has a smooth, round head without edges or grooves, making it impossible for grass or fibers to stick to its surface. It can then be easily swept away as the blades rotate.

[0036] Example 4 Please see Figures 1 to 6 This embodiment provides a waste material collection vehicle, which includes the waste material collection structure 600 described in Embodiment 1. Since this waste material collection vehicle adopts the waste material collection structure 600 of Embodiment 1, it has the advantages of high collection efficiency, site friendliness, and low maintenance cost.

[0037] It should be noted that the waste material collection vehicle also includes other components (such as the grass lifting and conveying mechanism located at the rear of the waste material collection structure 600 and the collection box, etc.). Other components can adopt existing technologies and will not be described in detail.
