Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, specifically a multi-nipple continuous feeding lamb nursing device. Background Technology

[0002] In the livestock farming sector, lamb nursing efficiency and health management are directly related to farming profitability. Traditional lamb nursing methods and existing equipment have many technical bottlenecks, making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale farms.

[0003] Traditionally, lambs are primarily fed through natural or artificial feeding. While natural feeding is simple and easy, it presents problems such as uneven lamb development and difficulty in accurately measuring milk production in ewes. Artificial feeding, such as bottle feeding and bowl feeding, allows for controlled milk production, but it is cumbersome and requires strict hygiene management. Furthermore, traditional feeding methods lack temperature control, allowing milk to cool and coagulate at low temperatures, affecting lamb digestion and potentially causing disease.

[0004] Existing lamb nursing devices also have certain shortcomings. While some fixed nursing devices use platforms and bottle racks to hold the bottles, their feeding efficiency is limited, and they lack backflow prevention designs, posing a risk of cross-infection. Mobile, temperature-controlled nursing devices, although equipped with heating and insulation functions, may have milk residue due to the milk container design, and they do not address the need for simultaneous feeding of multiple teats, making it difficult to meet the needs of feeding multiple lambs at the same time. Some automated feeding systems, while capable of precisely adjusting nutrient intake and improving feeding efficiency, are complex and costly, hindering widespread application. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, this utility model provides a multi-nipple continuous feeding lamb nursing device, which aims to solve the problems of traditional lamb nursing methods and existing devices in terms of feeding efficiency, risk of cross-infection, operational flexibility and equipment portability.

[0006] This utility model provides a multi-nipple continuous feeding lamb feeding device, characterized in that it includes a fixed bracket, on both sides of which bottle holders are symmetrically fixed, and multiple bottle holders are evenly arranged side by side. Each bottle holder has a bottle, which is tilted and has a nipple at its lower end. A milk box is fixedly mounted on the upper part of the bottle holders. The outside of the milk box is connected to the upper end of the bottle through a pipe. A throttling valve is fixedly mounted on the outside of the milk box and on the pipe. A one-way valve is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the bottle and on the pipe.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the bottle holder includes a base frame, a fixing ring is fixedly mounted on the upper side of the base frame, the upper end of the fixing ring is provided with an opening, and the bottle is placed inside the fixing ring.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the baby bottle includes an outer shell, and a step is provided on the upper outer side of the outer shell, the step being located above the fixing ring.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, each of the base frames is provided with two retaining rings.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, an insulation layer is fixedly disposed on the inner side of the outer shell, a heating wire is fixedly disposed on the inner side of the insulation layer, a bottle liner is fixedly disposed on the inner side of the heating wire, the upper end of the bottle liner is connected to a pipe, and the lower end of the bottle liner is fixedly connected to a nipple.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the milk box includes a box body, a box cover is fixedly installed on the upper part of the box body, a milk inlet is fixedly installed on the upper part of the box cover, and insulation pads are provided on the inner side of both the box body and the inner side of the box cover. A sealing gasket is provided at the connection between the box body and the box cover.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the fixed support includes an A-frame, with a crossbeam fixedly arranged between the A-frames, and both ends of the crossbeam extending to the outside of the A-frame.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] For efficient feeding and structural optimization, the system employs a symmetrical triangular support structure with an A-frame, combined with an extended crossbeam design. This ensures both stability and ease of transport by two people, enhancing mobility. Multiple sets of bottle holders are arranged side-by-side on both sides, allowing a single unit to feed multiple lambs simultaneously, significantly improving the efficiency of large-scale farming.

[0015] Precise temperature control and anti-coagulation technology, along with the bottle's four-layer structure (outer shell + insulation layer + heating wire + inner liner) and temperature sensor, maintains a constant feeding environment of 38-40℃, solving the problem of milk coagulation at low temperatures and reducing the risk of digestive system diseases in lambs. The combination of independent heating and an integrated insulation system reduces energy consumption and adapts to different environmental temperature requirements.

[0016] The milk tank features a hygienic and pollution-proof design, with a one-way valve at the connection between the bottle and the pipeline to effectively prevent milk backflow, avoid contamination of the milk box, and prevent cross-infection among lambs, complying with GB 16568-2006 Dairy Farm Hygiene Standard. The milk box uses an airtight connection with a sealed gasket and has an internal heat-insulating pad, providing double protection for milk hygiene and temperature stability.

[0017] Enhanced ease of operation and adaptability: The bottle is quickly secured with a flexible retaining ring, and the upward-facing design simplifies the replacement process. The retaining ring's adjustable space ensures compatibility with different bottle sizes. The pipeline throttle valve supports adjustable dispensing volume from 0-200mL / min, catering to the sucking needs of lambs of varying ages and increasing the equipment's versatility.

[0018] Gravity assists and reduces residue. The bottle is tilted and fixed at 15°-30°, allowing milk to flow naturally by gravity, reducing residue in the bottle and minimizing milk waste, while also conforming to the lamb's sucking habits. Attached Figure Description
