FEED MIXER AND DISTRIBUTOR Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: agricultural engineering. SUBSTANCE: feed mixer and distributor has hopper 1. In the hopper at its side walls there are top augers 2, and bottom auger 4 is mounted at the hopper bottom on hollow shaft 3. Deflecting flight 5 is located in the zone of location of unloading conveyor 6, and it is in a spaced relation with main part 7 of the auger winding, and the direction of the flight is contrary with the auger winding. The feed mixer and distributor is provided with a special device located between the main part 7 and deflecting flight 5. The device has two co-axial stirring augers 8 with axles 7. Each stirring auger is provided with gutter 10 rigidly secured on hollow shaft 3 of bottom auger 4. Each stirring auger is also provided with planetary mechanism 11. The latter is mounted inside hollow shaft 3. The planetary mechanism has axle 12. Central wheel 13 is mounted on axle 13, and satellites 14 are mounted on axles 9 of stirring augers 8. There is a regulator of position of stirring augers 8 mounted on the axle of bottom auger 4 on the external side of hopper 1. The regulator is sector 15 with holes 16 and lever 17. The lever is provided with a retainer. EFFECT: higher efficiency. 3 dwg
