Automatic feeder

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic feeder. The automatic feeder comprises a container, a feed storage tank mounted above the container and at least one liquid bottle mounted beside the feed storage tank, wherein the feeding end of the feed storage tank is directly or indirectly communicated with the inner part of the container by the liquid transmitting end of the liquid bottle; the feeding end of the feed storage tank is further provided with an automatic opening / closing device for feeding at regular time; a water inlet is formed in the side wall of the container; a siphon liquid discharging device for discharging a mixture in the container out of the tank is mounted on the bottom wall of the container. According to the automatic feeder, the automatic opening / closing device for feeding at regular time is mounted at the feeding end of the feed storage tank and medicine liquid of the liquid bottle flows into the container under the effect of gravity; when pre-set time is up, the automatic opening / closing device starts to work; feed in the feed storage tank is fed into the inner part of the container to be mixed with the medicine liquid in the container and water flows from the water inlet to sufficiently mix the feed and the medicine liquid; when the water level in the container is higher than a siphon water level of the siphon liquid discharging device, mixed liquid in the container is discharged out of the container due to a siphon effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automatic feeder with controllable feed (drug) time and no power consumption in the fields of aquaculture and animal husbandry. Background technique [0002] In the fields of aquaculture and animal husbandry, the dosing of chemicals (including liquid and powder) is an essential process of production. The dosing device is used in aquaculture and livestock and poultry dosing, and is an indispensable device in the breeding industry. [0003] In the current market, there are two kinds of feeding devices, one is purely manual feeding device, and the other is automatic feeding (medicine) device controlled by power supply; the whole feeding process of the former is completely dependent on manpower, which inevitably increases labor intensity. And the cumbersomeness of the process; although the latter can achieve the effect of metering and automatic dosing, it mainly depends on power consumption. To this end, it is an important par...
