MOBILE FEEDER-MOISTENER Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: agricultural engineering, in particular, dry feed moistening equipment used in animal farming. SUBSTANCE: feeder-moistener has hopper and dry feed dosing device with slides for regulating feed dispensing norm and removal of mechanical contaminants, liquid component tank, valve for regulating amounts of liquid component supplied, pipeline, mixing pump, liquid feed additive container equipped with regulator, blade-type dry and liquid components ejectors. Dry feed dosing device is made in the form of rotating grid with openings having diameter of 4-10 mm and spiral scraper arranged above grid and having working surface arranged at an angle of 45-55 deg with respect to radius. Dry feed supplying rotor is arranged under grid and provided with blades arranged at an angle of 35- 65 deg with respect to radius and oriented in direction opposed to rotation direction. EFFECT: improved quality of moistening of dry concentrated feed, provision for breaking of consolidated feed lumps and separation of mechanical contaminants and production of liquid feeds with different physical and mechanical properties and reduced labor intensity. 3 cl, 4 dwg
