FEED MIXER Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC A23N17/00 

FIELD: agriculture, in particular, technique for preparing feeds of any consistency, preferably wet mixed feeds, to animals.

SUBSTANCE: feed mixer has container formed as cylindrical reservoir adapted for rotation on pinions during mixing phase around shaft arranged at an angle to geometrical axis of container and intersecting its ends in outside and diametrically opposed points, feed charging and discharge throat hermetically closed with cover. There are blades within container on shaft, positioned for rotation with shaft relative to geometrical axis of container. Feed mixer is driven by means of motor-reducer through planetary mechanism, with container forming carrier for said mechanism, and shaft with blades and cone toothed wheel rigidly fixed on shaft at outer side of container forming satellite, said toothed wheel being meshed with central toothed wheel made integral with brake drum and immovable during mixing process. During discharge of ready feed mixtures, each of central toothed wheel and brake drum which are arranged on single pinion are moved by means of respective individual drive and normally closed brake controlled by electromagnet blocked through electric circuit with electric engine of container drive. Container is retained during discharge of feed through throat by means of similar brake. Blades are arranged along helical path within container, with angle of attack being oriented toward throat.

EFFECT: improved quality of mixing of feed products.
