Summary: | The physical basis of the mixture formation is analyzed. The study aims to increase the intensity of the process of continuous mixing of feed in the mixer. The basic principles and methods of classical mechanics, mathematical analysis, and statistics were used in this study. The design of the mixer cover in the form of a three-sided box is justified, which eliminates additional resistance to the rotation of the screw due to the impact of the feed masses reflected from the cover. When using a lid in the form of a three-sided box, the mixing quality improves by 4-5% and reaches 93% or more at a capacity of 15 t/h. It is established that the optimal angle of inclination of the reflecting plane of the mixing chamber cover is 31-35° with a screw diameter of 400 mm, the height of the reflecting plane from the screw axis of 350 mm, and a rotation speed of 36.61 s-1. The following indicators of the mixer were determined: the productivity that ensures the mixing quality of more than 90% when mixing green mass and silage with mixed feed - 19 t/h, crushed feed root crops with mixed feed-23 t / h, the speed of the screw - 36.61 s-1.
