Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of breeding, in particular to a track type feeding device based on a large-scale breeding base. BACKGROUND

[0002] In modern breeding centers, the feeding process is basically manually driving a feeding machine to feed livestock. Or feeding through an automatic feeder, which is a continuous feeding mechanical equipment widely used in the building materials industry, mainly composed of a rack, a feeding box, a feeding chain wheel, a chain plate, a motor and other components.

[0003] The automatic feeder includes self-propelled feeding and track feeding. The self-propelled feeding discharges feed to complete feeding during movement through a pre-set walking path. The track feeding method pre-sets a track on each path where the feeding machine walks, similar to a train track, and the feeding machine walks along the track to complete the feeding operation.

[0004] However, the feeding channel in the current general breeding area is relatively small, and the remaining feed of the livestock after eating will be difficult to clean up using the existing track feeding, and when the livestock finish eating the feed in the area close to the fence, the feed in the area away from the fence is not convenient to eat. When the feeding machine discharges the feed, not all the feed can fall into the trough, and the feed outside the trough is not easy to clean up, and the livestock cannot eat it, which not only causes waste of feed, but also increases the difficulty of subsequent personnel cleaning.

[0005] At the same time, during the discharging process, the discharge pipe has a certain length, and the feed in the discharge pipe is easy to accumulate at the discharge pipe, thereby causing caking, and when the feed enters the feed trough, the caked feed affects the health of the livestock eating, and the caked feed is easy to bring more feed during the process of falling into the trough, and it is not easy to control the amount of feed eaten by the livestock. SUMMARY

[0006] One object of the present application is to provide a track type feeding device based on a large-scale breeding base, which moves the excess feed to the area where the livestock can eat through the scraper at the lower end of the discharge pipe of the feeding machine, and uniformly recycles the external feed, which is convenient for recycling and processing, and also facilitates the feeding of the livestock.
