METHOD OF TRANSMISSION OF ROTATION PROCESS FROM DRIVE TO HOPPER OF MIXER-FEED DISTRIBUTOR AND DEVICE FOR IMPLEMENTING THE METHOD Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A01K5/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: for transmitting the rotation process from the drive to the hopper of the mixer-feed distributor the frictional force is applied to its side surface. And the side surface of the hopper is braced with two endless chain loops located with a gap between them, with their V-shaped adjacency to the hopper housing and the covering the rollers and drive sprockets with providing tension of circuits with the hopper weight. The inventive device comprises a cylindrical hopper 6 mounted on the frame of the chassis with the ability of rotation about its longitudinal axis and changing the angle of its inclination, having one closed end, the loading window, the unloading mechanism and the drive mechanism. Near the hopper 6 on the frame two racks 9 are mounted on each side of the hopper 6 with a gap between them. On the racks 9 one above the other the rotary rolls 10 are fixed, which axes of rotation are oriented with the rotational axis of the hopper 6. And the racks 9 of each pair, placed on different sides of the hopper 6, are located in the same plane intersecting the longitudinal axis of the hopper 6 at a right angle. The rotary rolls 10 mounted on each pair of racks 9 and the housing 6 of the hopper are covered by the endless chain loops 14 with their V-shaped adjacency to the hopper 6 housing and ensuring tension of endless chain loops by the hopper 6 weight. Two rotary rolls 10 located on one side of the hopper 6 and mounted to adjacent racks 9 made in the form of sprockets 11 connected to the drive mechanism.

EFFECT: the group of inventions increases the operational reliability of the means of transmission of rotation to the hopper, simplifies the design of the drive, increases serviceability of the mixer-feed distributor.
