Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a feeder for assisting cattle and sheep in licking brick feeding, belonging to the field of animal husbandry. Specifically, it relates to a feeder that uses a rotating crushing roller to cut and crush the licking brick, and controls the crushing amount by controlling the operation of a drive motor to achieve quantitative feeding, thus preventing cattle and sheep from ingesting excessive amounts. Background Technology

[0002] Lick blocks are made by pressing salt, containing macro- and micro-elements such as calcium, phosphorus, iodine, copper, zinc, manganese, iron, and selenium, into blocks for cattle to lick. This provides cattle with essential minerals, enhancing their physical condition and immunity, and effectively preventing and treating various diseases. Traditionally, lick blocks are simply suspended in mid-air by ropes or poles. This method results in waste due to fragments falling to the ground, and uneven licking can cause blocks to fall off. Existing lick block fixing devices cannot control the amount of licking, relying solely on the cattle's self-discipline. Over-licking or excessive intake of lick blocks can lead to poisoning, which does not meet the needs of modern, integrated scientific farming.

[0003] Announcement No. CN208080230U discloses a special container for mineral element licking blocks for sheep, including a box with its opening facing upwards. Three fixing rods are evenly spaced along the left-right direction on the bottom surface inside the box. From bottom to top, springs, second washers, licking blocks, and first washers are sequentially fitted onto the sides of the fixing rods. The upper ends of the fixing rods are threaded to nuts, with the lower surface of the nut contacting the upper surface of the first washer. The upper end of the spring contacts the lower surface of the second washer. A lid is provided on the upper surface of the box, and a fixing device is fixed to the lower surface of the box. This container cannot control the amount of licking blocks consumed by cattle and sheep, making them prone to over-ingestion and poisoning.

[0004] Publication No. CN208175718U discloses a licking brick holder for goats, including a licking brick and a licking brick holder. The licking brick holder includes a fixed disc and a fixed rod. There are two fixed discs, and a horizontal rotating rod is located at the center of the fixed discs. Multiple sets of licking brick sliding rods are connected to each other between the two fixed discs. A licking brick for goats to lick is looped on the licking brick sliding rod. Both ends of the licking brick sliding rod are connected to the horizontal rotating rod through vertical swing rods. The horizontal rod of the licking brick sliding rod is embedded in the swinging groove at one end of the vertical swing plate. The horizontal rotating rod is connected to the inner plate of the fixed disc through a rolling bearing. This licking brick holder cannot control the amount of food ingested by cattle and sheep when licking. Summary of the Invention
