Abstract

This article emphasizes the essential need for technical solutions in small-scale electromechanization tailored for private and small farms to efficiently manage labor-intensive tasks related to caring for farm animals and poultry. The focus is on utilizing single-phase electric motors of low power known for their simple and reliable design, available at a competitive market price. The paper introduces a design and technological diagram, structure, and operational principles of a versatile rotary grain crusher specifically engineered for grinding grain feed. The study gives a theoretical analysis of grain deformation processes within the grain crusher and the movement of grains within the working chamber. Through a concise theoretical examination of the machine’s working chamber, the research validates the potential of the proposed design and technological scheme for the grain feed grinder. This analysis underscores the machine’s promise in delivering the desired quality of the technological process while significantly reducing specific energy consumption compared to existing production models.
