Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of lick brick feed, and in particular to a trace element lick brick with a multi-layer composite structure. Background Art

[0002] With the development of animal husbandry, improving animal production performance and health has become a key focus of the industry. Ruminants (such as cattle and sheep) mainly feed on forage, but due to the limitations of the natural environment and differences in artificial breeding conditions, forage may lack some essential trace elements and vitamins.

[0003] To compensate for the lack of trace elements and vitamins in animal feed, a variety of lick brick products have emerged on the market. Lick bricks are nutritional supplements designed for ruminants, allowing them to obtain the trace elements, vitamins, and other nutrients they need by licking them. However, existing lick bricks are mostly solid blocks compressed from a single or mixed ingredient. These products have an uneven distribution of nutrients and are difficult to precisely tailor to the diverse nutritional needs of animal populations, resulting in low lick brick efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a trace element lick brick with a multi-layer composite structure, which can meet the nutritional needs of different animal groups or the same animal group at different growth stages and physiological states, and improve the use efficiency of the lick brick.

[0005] This application is achieved through the following technical solutions, specifically:

[0006] A multi-layer composite structure trace element lick brick comprises a lick brick body, wherein the lick brick body is formed by splicing at least one lick brick layer, and the lick brick layer contains at least one trace element.

[0007] In this scheme, by splicing lick brick layers with different trace elements to form a lick brick with a multi-layer composite structure, the composition and number of each lick brick layer in the lick brick can be adjusted according to the needs of different animal groups, meeting the nutritional needs of different animal groups or the same animal group at different growth stages and physiological states, such as the types and contents of trace elements, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of the lick brick.

[0008] As an improvement to the solution of the present application, in order to simplify the splicing process of the lick brick layer, the upper end surface of the lick brick layer has a strip-shaped protrusion structure, and the lower end surface of the lick brick layer has a concave groove that matches the shape of the strip-shaped protrusion structure.

[0009] Based on the improvement of the previous solution, further, in order to ensure the stability of the splicing of the lick brick layer, the strip-shaped protrusion structure includes a step structure, and the concave groove includes a dovetail groove.

[0010] As an improvement to the solution of the present application, in order to facilitate the installation of the lick brick, a center hole is passed downward through the middle portion of the upper end surface of the lick brick body.

[0011] As an improvement to the solution of the present application, inclined surfaces are pressed at the joints of the various surfaces of the licking brick layer.

[0012] As an improvement to the solution of the present application, in order to improve the efficiency of splicing the lick brick layer, the outer side of the lick brick layer is provided with a mark for distinguishing different nutritional ingredients.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0014] The solution of the present application forms a lick brick with a multi-layer composite structure by splicing lick brick layers with different trace elements. The composition and number of lick brick layers in the lick brick can be adjusted according to the needs of different animal groups, meeting the nutritional needs of different animal groups or the same animal group at different growth stages and physiological states, such as the types and contents of trace elements, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of the lick brick.

[0021] The following will be combined with the Figures 1 to 3The embodiments of the technical solution of the present application are described in detail. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present application and are therefore only examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0022] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a multi-layer composite structure of trace element licking bricks, such as Figure 1 As shown in the structural diagram, the trace element lick brick comprises: a lick brick body 1, wherein the lick brick body 1 is composed of at least one lick brick layer 2, and the lick brick layer 2 has at least one trace element.

[0023] Specifically, although animals can obtain necessary nutrients by licking lick bricks, the intake of lick bricks needs to be controlled artificially to avoid animals from excessive intake of certain minerals and causing poisoning, and the type and supply of lick bricks need to be adjusted in time according to changes in the nutritional needs of animals.

[0024] The lick brick body 1 in this embodiment can include a single lick brick layer 2, or it can be composed of multiple lick brick layers 2. Different lick brick layers 2 can be composed of different nutrients, such as salts, minerals, vitamins, trace nutrients, drugs, and other feed additives or ingredients. Minerals include trace elements such as calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, magnesium, sulfur, copper, zinc, manganese, iron, and cobalt, all of which are essential for maintaining healthy animal growth. Therefore, the lick brick layer 2 contains at least one of these trace elements. Lick brick layers 2 with different nutritional components can be prepared separately.

[0025] This embodiment forms a lick brick body 1 having a multi-layer composite structure by splicing at least one lick brick layer 2. The composition and number of the lick brick layer 2 can be flexibly adjusted to better control the overall structure of the lick brick, thereby meeting the nutritional needs of different animal groups or the same animal group at different growth stages and physiological states, and improving the utilization efficiency of the lick brick.

[0026] Optionally, the thickness, width and length of the lick brick layer 2 can be adjusted as needed, and this application does not impose any limitation on this.

[0027] Continue to read Figure 1 In one implementation, the upper end surface of the lick brick layer 2 has a strip-shaped protruding structure 3, and the lower end surface of the lick brick layer 2 has a concave groove 4 that matches the shape of the strip-shaped protruding structure.

[0028] Specifically, this embodiment features a concave groove 4 on the lower end surface of each lick brick layer 2, which matches the strip-shaped raised structure 3 on the upper end surface. The prepared lick brick layers 2 are then assembled in a predetermined sequence, ensuring that the strip-shaped raised structures and concave grooves between adjacent lick brick layers 2 fit tightly together to form a complete strip-shaped lick brick body 1. Compared to prior art methods of gluing lick brick layers 2 together or connecting them with metal wires around the lick bricks, the lick brick layer 2 structure of this embodiment offers greater assembly and disassembly flexibility and is less prone to breakage.

[0029] Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the structure of a licking brick layer in this application is shown. Figure 2 As shown, based on the previous implementation, in one implementation, the strip-shaped protrusion structure 3 includes a step structure, and the concave groove 4 includes a dovetail groove.

[0030] Specifically, the cross section of the step structure is trapezoidal, and the connection structure of the step structure and the dovetail groove further ensures a stable connection between the layers of the lick brick layer 2, thereby preventing the lick brick layer 2 from separating during use.

[0031] In one embodiment, a central hole 5 is formed downwardly through the middle portion of the upper end surface of the lick brick body 1. Specifically, the central hole 5 is used to secure the lick brick body 1 to a support bar, which in turn secures the lick brick body 1 in the lick brick box, thereby preventing the lick brick body 1 from moving and making it difficult for animals to lick it.

[0032] Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the structure of another multi-layer composite trace element licking brick in the embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 3 As shown, in order to make the lick brick body 1 adapt to the shape of the lick brick box, this embodiment sets the upper end surface of the lick brick layer 2 located on the top of the lick brick body 1 to a flat shape, further restricting the movement of the lick brick body 1 and improving its structural stability.

[0033] In one implementation, the connection between each surface of the lick brick layer 2 is pressed with an inclined surface 6. Specifically, the connection between each surface of the lick brick layer 2 is pressed with an inclined surface 6 to ensure that the connection between the lick brick layers 2 is smoother and reduce the cracks that may occur between the lick brick layers 2.

[0034] In one implementation, the outer surface of the lick brick layer 2 is provided with markings 7 for distinguishing different nutrients. Specifically, the multi-layer composite structure design makes it easier to monitor the consumption of the lick brick body 1. By observing the consumption of different lick brick layers 2 and the changes in markings, the animal's demand for different nutrients can be understood, and the composition structure of the lick brick body 1 can be adjusted in a timely manner.

[0035] Optionally, the identification may be a color code, a number, a letter or other easily identifiable mark, so as to distinguish different nutrients contained in the lick brick layer 2 .

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
