The invention provides an arm swing intelligent feeding device and method, wherein the intelligent feeding device includes a food storage vessel, a food feeding disk, a weighing sensor, a controller,and an arm swing feeding assembly. The food feeding disk is installed on one side of the food storage vessel; the weighing sensor is installed under the food feeding disk; and the arm swing feeding assembly comprises a swing arm and a mechanical gripper. The arm swing intelligent feeding device is characterized in that the mechanical gripper is driven by the swing arm to move above the food storage vessel and the food feeding disk, then the mechanical gripper is capable of grasping the food in the food storage vessel and putting the food into the food feeding disk; the food in the food feedingdisk is weighed by the weighing sensor, if the weight of the measured food in the food feeding disk is smaller than a preset weight of needed food, the mechanical gripper is controlled by the controller to continue grasping the food in the food storage vessel and putting the food into the food feeding disk; accordingly, intelligent feeding is achieved, precise measuring and grasping of some foodlike granular solid food is also achieved.
