The pusher assembly includes a drive shaft 320, with two sets of drive shafts 320 arranged at the front and rear. The two sets of drive shafts 320 are connected by a sprocket 330 and a chain 340. The outer wall of the chain 340 is fitted with a pusher plate 350 for fixed installation.

[0016] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: the first feeder 100 and the second feeder 200 in the conveying assembly are vertically distributed, and the two work together to complete the conveying of feed bags, providing a stable material supply for subsequent bag-pushing operations. In the bag-pushing assembly, two sets of drive shafts 320 arranged at the front and rear are connected by a sprocket 330 and a chain 340. When the drive shaft 320 rotates, the chain 340 moves with the drive shaft 320, driving the pusher plate 350 fixed on the outer wall to move synchronously, thereby pushing the feed bag conveyed by the conveying assembly to the intersection to the target position, realizing the turning and transfer of the feed bag.

[0017] Example 2: Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first feeder 100 and the second feeder 200 have the same structure. The inner wall of the first feeder 100 is rotatably connected to the conveying roller through the bearing. The conveying roller is used to rotate and convey the feed bag.

[0018] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: The first feeder 100 and the second feeder 200 have the same structure. Both feed the feed bag is conveyed by the conveying roller connected by the inner wall bearing. When the conveying roller rotates under the drive of the power device, the feed bag is moved on the feeder by means of the friction between the conveying roller and the feed bag, thereby completing the conveying process of the feed bag, providing continuous material conveying support for the pusher assembly, and ensuring the continuous operation of the entire pusher mechanism.

[0019] Example 3: Figures 2-4The pusher assembly includes a support frame 300, which is installed on the top of the frame at the intersection of the first feeder 100 and the second feeder 200. Bearing seats 310 are installed on the inner wall of the support frame 300. The inner wall of the bearing seats 310 is rotatably connected to the drive shaft 320 through bearings. The adjustable distance between the front and rear sets of bearing seats 310 is used to adjust the tension of the chain 340. Two chains 340 are symmetrically arranged. A servo motor 360 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the support frame 300. The output shaft of the servo motor 360 is connected to the reducer 370. The output shaft of the reducer 370 is connected to the outer wall of the drive shaft 320 for transmission. A protective cover 380 is detachably fixedly installed on the top of the support frame 300 by bolts. The protective cover 380 is located between the two chains 340.

[0020] The specific application scenario of this embodiment is as follows: The support frame 300 of the pusher assembly is installed on the top of the frame at the intersection of the first feeder 100 and the second feeder 200, providing a stable installation foundation for the entire pusher assembly. The bearing seat 310 on the inner wall of the support frame 300 is rotatably connected to the drive shaft 320 through bearings. The distance between the front and rear sets of bearing seats 310 is adjustable to adjust the tension of the chain 340, ensuring the stability and reliability of the chain 340 transmission. The two symmetrically arranged chains 340 move under the drive of the drive shaft 320. The servo motor 360 fixed on the side wall of the support frame 300 is connected to the reducer 370 through the output shaft. The output shaft of the reducer 370 cooperates with the outer wall of the drive shaft 320 for transmission. The servo motor 360 provides power to the drive shaft 320 and can precisely control the speed and direction of the drive shaft 320 through the servo motor 360, thereby precisely controlling the movement of the push plate 350. After the feed bag is delivered to the end of the first feeder 100, the push plate 350 rotates and pushes the feed bag to the top of the starting end of the second feeder 200, thus completing the operation of moving the feed bag from the first feeder 100 to the top of the second feeder 200 and completing the reversal of the feed bag. In addition, the protective cover 380, which can be detachably installed on the top of the support frame 300 by bolts, is located between the two chains 340, which can protect the transmission components such as the chains 340, prevent foreign objects from entering and affecting the transmission, and ensure operational safety.

[0021] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When used by those skilled in the art, in the conveying assembly, the first feeder 100 and the second feeder 200 are vertically distributed and have the same structure. Both convey feed bags by conveying rollers that are rotatably connected by bearings on the inner wall. When the conveying rollers rotate under the drive of the power device, the friction between the conveying rollers and the feed bags is used to drive the feed bags to move, so as to continuously convey materials for the pushing operation and ensure the continuity of the entire process. The core driving part of the pushing assembly is powered by a servo motor 360. The servo motor 360 is connected to a reducer 370 through an output shaft. The output shaft of the reducer 370 is engaged with the outer wall of the drive shaft 320 to drive the two sets of drive shafts 320 to rotate. The two sets of drive shafts 320 are connected by a sprocket 330 and two symmetrically arranged chains 340. The pushing plate 350, which is fixed to the outer wall of the chain 340, moves synchronously with the chain. The support frame 300 at the top of the frame where the first feeder 100 and the second feeder 200 meet provides stable support for the pusher assembly. The bearing seat 310 on its inner wall is rotatably connected to the drive shaft 320 through bearings, and the distance between the front and rear bearing seats is adjustable to adjust the tension of the chain 340 and ensure stable transmission. When the feed bag is conveyed to the end by the first feeder 100, the pusher plate 350, which moves with the chain 340, pushes the feed bag to the top of the starting end of the second feeder 200, completing the transfer of the feed bag from the first feeder to the second feeder. Throughout the process, the servo motor 360 can precisely control the speed and direction of the drive shaft 320, thereby precisely controlling the movement of the pusher plate 350 to ensure accurate pushing position. In addition, the protective cover 380 on the top of the support frame 300 protects the chain 340 and other transmission components, preventing foreign objects from interfering with the transmission and ensuring operational safety.
