PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a pellet feed production device by which downsizing and power saving of a mixing and conveying device are achieved, and feed excellent in texture like chewiness or flavor is produced by kneading potato pieces and crushed barley.SOLUTION: The pellet feed production device 1 includes: raw material feeding parts 3, 4 the mixing and conveying device 2 mixing a plurality of raw materials fed from the raw material feeding parts 3, 4 and conveying the resultant material to a second process a granulating device 7 granulating the mixed raw materials into pellets or other granular bodies a heating part 9 receiving and heating the granular bodies and a cooling part 11 cooling the heated granular bodies. The raw material feeding parts arranged on the mixing and conveying device 2 include: a potato feeding part 3 which is arranged on the upstream side in the mixing and conveying direction, slices sweet potatoes or other potatoes by a cutter 23 and feeds the resultant material as potato pieces and a grain feeding part 4 feeding barley or other grains, which are coarsely crushed into granules without grinding the same into powder, to the downstream side of the potato feeding part 3.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】混合搬送処理装置の小型省動力化を図ると共に、イモ片と麦砕粒を混練し噛みごたえや風味等食感に勝れた飼料を製造することができるペレット飼料製造装置を提供する。【解決手段】原材料供給部3,4と、該原材料供給部3,4から供給される複数の原材料を混合して2次工程に搬送する混合搬送処理装置2と、混合原材料をペレットその他の粒状体に造粒する造粒装置7と、造粒された粒状体を受けて加熱処理する加熱部9と、加熱された粒状体を冷却処理する冷却部11とを備えたペレット飼料製造装置1であって、前記混合搬送処理装置2に設置する原材料供給部を、混合搬送処理方向上流側に設置されて、サツマイモその他のイモ類をカッタ23によりスライスしイモ片として供給するイモ類供給部3と、麦その他の穀類を粉状にすることなく粗碾き状に粉砕した砕粒としてイモ類供給部3の下流側に供給する穀類供給部4とから構成した。【選択図】図1
