Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rabbit feed testing equipment, specifically to a device for detecting the breakage rate of meat rabbit feed. Background Technology
[0002] In large-scale rabbit farming, rabbits need to be fed pelleted feed, usually cylindrical. Pellets are nutritionally complete, and the constant chewing helps rabbits wear down their teeth, reducing damage to cages from gnawing. They also stimulate digestive juice secretion, aiding digestion and absorption. The high-temperature extrusion process during pelleting sterilizes the feed, reducing or preventing mold and spoilage. Suitable for free-feeding, the feed is typically placed in the troughs of the rabbit cages at set times and in measured quantities, so rabbits eat when hungry. However, some pelleted feed formulas are not optimally formulated and lack firmness. Some rabbits will pick at the feed while eating, causing it to crumble more easily, resulting in waste. Staff will need to clean up this broken feed.
[0003] Prior art document CN211043330U discloses a simple and efficient pellet feed pulverization rate tester. This method, which uses the up-and-down movement of the screen plate to drive the material above the screen plate to vibrate up and down, makes it easy for the pellet feed to collide and pulverize with the container and the screen plate, thereby increasing the amount of pulverized feed.

[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a rabbit feed breakage rate detection device includes a placement trough 1 with an open top and a filter screen at the bottom. Connecting seats 2 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the placement trough 1. The connecting seats 2 are installed on two vertically opposite supports 3. Each of the two supports 3 has two lifting legs 4 at its top. Each lifting leg 4 has a horizontally arranged base 21 fixedly connected to its top. The tops of the two opposite lifting legs 4 are respectively provided with a feeding device 1 and a feeding device 2, which have the same structure.
[0019] Specifically, the granular rabbit feed to be tested is placed in the placement trough 1, and then simulated feeding is performed by feeding device 1 and feeding device 2. The lifting support leg 4 can lift and lower the feeding device 1 and feeding device 2, making it easy to disassemble the placement trough 1, etc.
[0020] The first feeding device includes a side plate 5, which is fixedly connected to the top of two opposite bases 21. A threaded rod 6 is rotatably connected between the two side plates 5. One end of the threaded rod 6 extends to the outside of the side plate 5 and is connected to a drive motor 7. A slider 8 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 6. A vertically arranged moving rod 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 8. A horizontally arranged feeding plate 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the moving rod 9. The second feeding device includes a side plate 11, which is fixedly connected to the top of two other opposite bases 21. A threaded rod 12 is rotatably connected between the two side plates 11. One end of the threaded rod 12 extends to the outside of the side plate 11 and is connected to a drive motor 13. A slider 14 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 12. A vertically arranged moving rod 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 14. A horizontally arranged feeding plate 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the moving rod 15.
[0021] Specifically, the feeding plate 10 and feeding plate 16 are located on the left and right sides of the placement trough 1, respectively. Rabbit feed is placed in the placement trough 1, and the drive motor 7 is started. The drive motor 7 rotates, driving the threaded rod 6 to rotate. The slider 8 moves along the threaded rod 6, driving the feeding plate 10 to move to the right, pushing the feed to the right. When the feed reaches the feeding plate 16, the feeding plate 10 returns to the left. The drive motor 13 is then started, causing the feeding plate 16 to move to the left, pushing the rabbit feed to the left, thus simulating the rabbit scrambling for feed while eating. The rabbit feed produces powder, which falls through the holes in the screen at the bottom of the placement trough 1. The powder produced is measured at fixed times such as 1H and 2H to obtain the powdering rate.
[0022] The length L1 of the first material feeding plate 10 and the second material feeding plate 16 is equal to the inner length L2 of the placement groove 1; the height of the first material feeding plate 10 and the second material feeding plate 16 is greater than the height of the placement groove 1.
[0023] Specifically, the feed needs to be placed between feed dispensing plate 10 and feed dispensing plate 26. When placing the feed, its height should be much lower than the height of feed dispensing plate 10 and feed dispensing plate 26 to ensure that the feed is always placed between feed dispensing plate 10 and feed dispensing plate 26. If the feed moves to the left of feed dispensing plate 10 or the right of feed dispensing plate 26, it cannot be dispensed. Since the feed needs to be placed between feed dispensing plate 10 and feed dispensing plate 26, feed dispensing plate 26 can move the material on the right to the left, and feed dispensing plate 10 can move the material on the left to the right.
[0024] A guide rod 17 is provided between two opposite side plates 15. The guide rod 17 passes through the slider 18 and is located below the threaded rod 16. A guide rod 28 is provided between two opposite side plates 21. The guide rod 28 passes through the slider 24 and is located below the threaded rod 22.
[0025] Specifically, guide rod 17 guides and limits slider 8, and guide rod 18 guides and limits slider 14, causing slider 8 and slider 14 to move horizontally.
[0026] A vertically arranged support rod 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the material feeding plate 10 and to the side of the moving rod 9, and the support rod 19 passes through the guide rod 18; a vertically arranged support rod 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the material feeding plate 16 and to the side of the moving rod 15, and the support rod 20 passes through the guide rod 17.
[0027] Specifically, the lengths of the material feeding plates 10 and 16 are relatively long. When the material feeding plates 10 and 16 move, the material feeding plate 10 is supported by the moving rod 9 and the support rod 19, which makes it more stable. The support rod 19 passes through the guide rod 218 and moves along with the material feeding plate 10.
[0028] The lifting outrigger 4 is a vertically arranged hydraulic cylinder. The fixed end of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 3, and the base 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the free end of the hydraulic cylinder.
[0029] The bottom of feed dispensing plate 10 and feed dispensing plate 26 are provided with bristles 22; specifically, the bottom of the bristles 22 is in contact with the top surface of the placement trough 1. The bristles 22 are densely arranged so that rabbit feed will not leak out from the bristles. The bristles 22 can sweep the broken feed and make it fall into the filter hole of the placement trough 1.
[0030] A receiving trough 23 is provided below the placement trough 1; specifically, a placement base plate 25 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the two opposing supports 3, the receiving trough 23 is placed on top of the placement base plate 25, and the placement base plate 25 is fixedly connected between the two supports 3, so that the broken particles produced by feed crushing can be caught by the receiving trough 23.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
