TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of livestock equipment, specifically relates to a lamb feeding device. BACKGROUND
[0002] In order to better utilize the breeding performance of ewes, modern and large-scale sheep farms begin to induce food supplement for 10-15 day old lambs in the lactation period to achieve the purpose of early weaning. Lambs start to get sufficient nutrition supplement from this period, and generally can be weaned in 2 months or less, thereby entering the growing or fattening period. However, the supplement concentrate of lambs is different from the feed of ewes, and feeding is not suitable for trough sharing with ewes, so various forms of lamb feeding troughs appear.
[0003] The lamb feeding trough generally separates ewes by limiting fence when supplementing special feed for lambs, and the head of the lamb enters the feeding trough through the gap of the limiting fence, while the head of the ewe cannot enter the feeding trough through the gap, thereby limiting the phenomenon of the ewe stealing food, ensuring the normal supplement feeding of the lamb and the nutrients required by the lamb itself.
[0004] However, in actual use, due to lamb breeding, urine is scattered everywhere, resulting in a relatively humid lamb breeding environment. The limiting fence is usually made of wood, and the limiting fence is prone to rot in a humid environment, and cannot be durable. Over time, the ewe is easy to knock down the limiting fence and put its head through the limiting fence, eat all the supplement special feed of the lamb, and cause the lamb to be unable to normally supplement and the nutrients required by the lamb to be insufficient.
[0005] In addition, since the height of the limiting fence is only higher than that of the ewe, and the ewe and the lamb like to climb, the lamb and the ewe are easy to climb over the limiting fence and eat, drink, defecate and sleep in the lamb feeding trough, causing the special feed in the lamb feeding trough to be contaminated by the feces and urine of the ewe or the lamb. At this time, the lamb is easy to get sick after eating the contaminated special feed. INVENTION CONTENTS
[0006] The utility model intends to provide a lamb feeding device which can guide the lamb to eat while limiting the ewe.
[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:
[0008] 1) A lamb feeding device comprising a feeding box in a sealed structure, the feeding box having a storage chamber for storing special feed inside, a plurality of limiting holes for the lamb's head to pass through are uniformly distributed along the length direction of the side surface of the feeding box, and a partition plate extending along the radial direction of the feeding box is arranged on both sides of the limiting hole, and the end of the partition plate is fixed on the side surface of the feeding box, and the distance between adjacent partition plates is used to limit the body of the lamb.
[0009] The feeding box in a closed structure avoids the ewe or lamb jumping over and eating in the special feed, so that the feeding box in a closed structure can avoid the ewe or lamb eating, drinking, defecating and sleeping in the special feed, and keep the special feed clean; meanwhile, a plurality of limiting holes are arranged on the side surface of the feeding box along the length direction, the limiting hole can only pass through the head of the lamb, and the head of the ewe cannot pass through, so as to limit the special feed in the feeding box for the ewe, and avoid waste of the special feed.
[0010] In addition, the partition plate fixed on the side surface of the feeding box is arranged in the radial direction of the feeding box, and the space formed between adjacent partition plates is used for the lamb to pass through and limit the body of the lamb, so that the ewe can be separated, and the ewe is prevented from entering the area range of the limiting hole of the feeding box to limit the diet of the ewe.
[0011] 2) The lamb feeding device according to 1), wherein:
[0012] Further comprising a microprocessor, a pressure sensor is fixed on the opposite side surface of the adjacent partition plate, an alarm is fixed on the side surface of the feeding box away from the partition plate, and the alarm and the pressure sensor are electrically connected with the microprocessor.
[0013] When the ewe wants to pass through the space formed between the adjacent partition plates, the ewe presses the partition plate and generates a pressing force on the pressure sensor on the partition plate, the pressure sensor obtains a pressure value through induction, when the pressure value is greater than a preset pressure value preset by the microprocessor, the microprocessor sends an instruction to the alarm, the alarm gives a warning to prompt the staff that the ewe is breaking into the area range of the feeding box, and the staff will come to limit the behavior of the ewe, so that the lamb can eat in the feeding box, and the waste of the special feed is reduced.
[0014] 3) The lamb feeding device according to 2), wherein:
[0015] The pressure sensor is arranged at the upper part of the partition plate. Since the height of the ewe is higher than that of the lamb, the ewe wants to pass through the space formed between the adjacent partition plates, and the head of the ewe is lowered to move forward, at this time, the head of the ewe first contacts the upper part of the partition plate, so that the pressure sensor arranged at the upper part of the partition plate can sense the behavior of the ewe in the first time that the ewe breaks into the area of the feeding box.
[0016] 4) The lamb feeding device according to 1), wherein:
[0017] The feeding box is provided with a feeding hole on the side away from the partition plate, and a cover is arranged on the feeding hole.

[0019] Meanwhile, the handle fixed on the side of the feeding hole on the back of the cover is convenient for the staff to carry and take the cover, and is convenient for the staff to open the feeding hole, and the operation is simple and convenient.
[0020] 5) The lamb feeding device according to 4), wherein:
[0021] The position of the feeding hole corresponds to the position of the alarm. The position of the feeding hole corresponding to the position of the alarm in the utility model is convenient for the staff to check the alarm during feeding, and avoids that the alarm is damaged by the lamb or the ewe.
[0022] 6) The lamb feeding device according to 1), wherein:
[0023] The feeding box is made of stainless steel. The feeding box made of stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and high hardness. Since the corrosion resistance of stainless steel is mainly due to the formation of a chromium-rich oxide film (passivation film) on the surface, the stainless steel feeding box can effectively resist the corrosion of atmosphere, steam, water and weak corrosive media through the chromium-rich oxide film (passivation film). Therefore, the feeding box of the utility model can be used for a long time in a humid environment, and the maintenance cost is low.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the utility model also has the following technical effects:
[0025] The utility model discloses a supplementary material box made of stainless steel material can be applied to humid environment, and it is not easy to be corroded and prolongs the service life, and the supplementary material box made of stainless steel material has higher hardness, therefore, it is not easy to be damaged by ewe or lamb. In addition, a plurality of limiting holes are arranged on the side of the supplementary material box along the length direction, which can be used for the head of the lamb to pass through and be combined with the partition plate fixed on the supplementary material box to limit the behavior of the ewe, and the pressure sensor on the partition plate can be used to monitor the behavior of the ewe in real time. When the ewe enters the space between the adjacent partition plates, if the pressure value of the pressure sensor is greater than the preset pressure value of the microprocessor, the microprocessor sends a command to the alarm to give a warning, and the behavior of the ewe is limited by the staff, so that the lamb can be normally supplemented and the nutrition required by the lamb itself can be ensured.

[0030] Embodiment, see Figure 1 In the embodiment, a kind of lamb supplementary material device, including the supplementary material box 1 of sealed structure, supplementary material box 1 has the storage chamber for storing special feed in it, the side of supplementary material box 1 is uniformly distributed and is opened along its length direction with a plurality of limiting hole 3 for the head of lamb to pass through, the two sides of limiting hole 3 are respectively provided with the partition plate 2 of the radial direction of supplementary material box 1 extension setting, the end of partition plate 2 is fixed on the side of supplementary material box 1, the distance between adjacent partition plate 2 is used to limit lamb body.
[0031] Supplementary material box 1 of closed structure is used to avoid ewe or lamb to jump over and eat in special feed, therefore, supplementary material box 1 of closed structure can avoid ewe or lamb to eat and drink in special feed, keep special feed clean;While, a plurality of limiting holes 3 are arranged on the side of supplementary material box 1 along the length direction, limiting hole 3 can only be used for the head of lamb to pass through, and the head of ewe cannot pass through, so as to limit the special feed in supplementary material box 1 from being eaten by ewe, avoid the waste of special feed.
[0032] Further, the partition plates 2 fixed on the side of the feed tank 1 are arranged along the radial direction of the feed tank 1, and the distance between adjacent partition plates 2 forms a space for the lambs to pass through and limit the body of the lambs, so as to separate the ewes and avoid the ewes entering the area of the limiting hole 3 of the feed tank 1 to limit the diet of the ewes.
[0033] Further, the embodiment also includes a microprocessor, the opposite sides of the adjacent partition plates 2 are respectively fixed with pressure sensors 6, and the side of the feed tank 1 away from the partition plates 2 is fixed with an alarm 5, and the alarm 5 and the pressure sensors 6 are respectively electrically connected with the microprocessor.
[0034] When the ewes want to pass through the space formed by the distance between the adjacent partition plates 2, the ewes press the partition plates 2 and generate a pressing force on the pressure sensors 6 on the partition plates 2, the pressure sensors 6 obtain a pressure value through induction, and when the pressure value is greater than a preset pressure value preset by the microprocessor, the microprocessor issues an instruction to the alarm 5, and the alarm 5 performs a pre-warning to prompt the staff that the ewes are breaking into the area of the feed tank 1, so that the staff will come to limit the behavior of the ewes, thereby ensuring that the lambs can diet in the feed tank 1 and reducing the waste of special feed.
[0035] Referring to Figure 1 , the pressure sensor 6 of the embodiment is arranged at the upper position of the partition plate 2. Since the size of the ewes is higher than that of the lambs, when the ewes want to pass through the space formed by the distance between the adjacent partition plates 2, the head of the ewes will be lowered to move forward, at this time, the head of the ewes will first contact the upper position of the partition plate 2, therefore, arranging the pressure sensor 6 at the upper position of the partition plate 2 can sense that the behavior of the ewes is breaking into the area of the feed tank 1 at the first time.
[0036] Referring to Figure 2 , the side of the feed tank 1 away from the partition plates 2 is provided with a feeding hole 4, the feeding hole 4 is covered with a flip cover 8, and the side of the flip cover 8 away from the feeding hole 4 is fixed with a handle 7.
[0037] When the special feed in the feed tank 1 is eaten up, the staff directly adds feed through the feeding hole 4 on the side of the feed tank 1 away from the partition plates 2, and the feeding hole 4 is also closed through the flip cover 8, so as to avoid the lambs or ewes entering the feed tank 1, and keep the special feed in the feed tank 1 clean, so as to avoid the lambs getting sick by eating the unclean special feed.

[0039] In addition, the position of the feeding hole 4 corresponds to the position of the alarm 5. In this embodiment, the feeding hole 4 corresponds to the position of the alarm 5, so that the staff can check the alarm 5 during the feeding process, avoiding the damage of the alarm 5 caused by the impact of the lamb or ewe.
[0040] Meanwhile, the feeding tank 1 in this embodiment is made of stainless steel. The feeding tank 1 made of stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and high hardness. Since the corrosion resistance of stainless steel is mainly due to the formation of a chromium-rich oxide film (passivation film) on its surface, the stainless steel feeding tank 1 can effectively resist the corrosion of atmosphere, steam, water and weak corrosive media through this chromium-rich oxide film (passivation film). Therefore, the feeding tank 1 of this embodiment can be used for a long time in a humid environment, and the maintenance cost is low.
[0041] The feeding tank 1 made of stainless steel can be used in a humid environment and is not easy to be corroded, prolonging the service life. In addition, the feeding tank 1 made of stainless steel has high hardness, so it is not easy to be damaged by the impact of the ewe or lamb. In addition, a plurality of limiting holes 3 are formed in the side of the feeding tank 1 along the length direction, which can be used for the head of the lamb to pass through and be combined with the partition plate 2 fixed on the feeding tank 1 to limit the behavior of the ewe. At the same time, the pressure sensor 6 on the partition plate 2 can be used to monitor the behavior of the ewe in real time whether it enters the space between the adjacent partition plates 2. When the ewe enters the space, if the pressure value of the pressure sensor 6 is greater than the preset pressure value of the microprocessor, the microprocessor sends a command to the alarm 5 to give a warning, and the staff limits the behavior of the ewe, so that the lamb can normally supplement the feed and obtain the nutrients needed by the lamb.
