Description

24147 2 An apparatus for the mixing and feeding of food to The present Invention relates to an apparatus for the and feeding of food to animals a mixing container for receiving a liquid and a as vater and powdered power driven rotating in said said mixer having inclined means for admitting said liquid to said container during the operation of said mixer and i said container for forming an annular of liquid on the vail of said container into which said powder independently actuated powder supply balancing feed control means vertically movin said mixing container and mixer said balancing feed control consisting of a having pivoting parallel and an electric contacto actuated by said said contactor switching said power on and off for said rotating According to our at least part of the device ensuring the supply of powde to mixer is actuated According to our invention the putting operation and the stopping of the mixer controlled b variation of the weight of the mixture contained in the Our invention also consists in fitting the containing the powder to be with a flexible rotating member ensuring a regular flow of the Our invention further consists in providing the apparatus with teats adapte to the action of the animal being Our invention also consists in certain other hereinafter mentioned and used preferably at the same time as the main arrangements hereinbefore Our invention particularly covers certain modes of application and realization of said arrangements and also the apparatus provided with such that the invention be more clearly reference will now be made

replaced by a plate which is to rotate about a pivot to ahaft 11 and thrown off the centre rith to this Deflector 13 prevents tho vhich is fal ing at reaching from spout 4 is collected on of the rotation of blades 5 drives the powder to the The powder is retained by raised 7 at the location of snout 4 where it is into mixer 1 by screw 16 mounted on sha 17 of the Sha t 17 is driven by for an electrical This is separate motor Motors 8 and are switched on and as has bee previously by variations in the level or of static within The control of raotor 18 be so that the stopping o this is after the stopping of motors 3 and 18 aay be stopped by an in the genera supply of the apparatus has no This security may be completed by an visual A sioevo of textile or plastics is arranged between 4 and raised 7 in order avoid any losses of 5 So that mixer 1 is ambient vents 20 21 of base covering the Mixer fixed by springs 22 to this extension This fixing enables the mixer to be rapidly assembled or taken to the admitted into mixer 1 through pipe system is introduced through two o more delivery tubes from it flows on to spinning ring This is fixed to disc carried by shaft by 28 inclined shown on The liquid sucked by the and supplied by the leaves 1 one o more pipe such as connected to the mixer by diaphragm 30 opposing passage of particles of fragments which may obstruct the pipe system o

save the apparatu as 31 on igure from shocks possibly caused by the animals to get thei it is protected by the su ciently robust partitions grooved in 33 The apparatus accordin to the invention is ordinarily in order to operate wit connections to the main After a circuit which may be disconnec by a lack of liquid the current arrives at terminals 36 to be fed to motor 8 of the powder 5a these being controlled by stat 38 and checked b pilot lamp and to valve 40 admitting liquid into the circuit breaker 41 and bipolar circuit breakers 42 and 43 to obtain three operations of the washing of
