Feed trough for chickens

Abstract

The invention discloses a feed trough for chickens. The feed trough comprises a feed storage hopper, a discharge control component and a foraging disc arranged below the feed storage hopper; a cover body is arranged at the top of the feed storage hopper, and a through hole is formed in the bottom of the feed storage hopper; the discharge control component comprises a middle column, a hook-shaped support rod hinged to the lower end of the middle column and an inverted cone platform connected to the top of the middle column; the inverted cone platform is slidably arranged in the through, and the outer diameter of the lower end of the inverted cone platform is bigger than the aperture of the through hole; the middle column penetrates through the middle of the foraging disc and is slidably connected to the foraging disc; the support rod abuts against the bottom of the foraging disc. In the feed trough for the chickens, the cover body isolates feed and the outside air to prevent the feed form being polluted; the pressure exerted on the support rod is adjusted through the quantity change of the feed carried on the foraging disc, and accordingly the middle column slides up and down; a gap or sealing closure between the inverted cone platform and the through hole is formed to control the leakage of the feed in the feed storage hopper. The feed trough for the chickens has the technical advantages of being capable of storing the feed, controlling discharge and reducing feed pollution.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a poultry feeder, in particular to a chicken feeder. Background technique [0002] The current method of feeding chickens in chicken farms, in addition to directly throwing corn kernels or wheat kernels directly on the ground, but this will cause a lot of grain to be trampled on, causing a lot of waste, and some of them are harmful to the health of chickens after eating. Some put the food in the trough. The trough is just a strip-shaped trough. The farmer can feed in multiple times a day, and the input amount is enough for the chickens to eat at one time, but this brings cumbersome work and feeding. It takes a lot of time; you can also invest a lot at a time for the chickens to eat for a day or a few days, but this will easily lead to food pollution, because the food is exposed to the air for a long time, and the air and environmental quality of the chicken farm is not good , So it is easy to contaminate and endanger the health of ...
