[0015] In order to better illustrate the present application, numerous specific details are provided in the following specific embodiments. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present application can also be implemented without certain specific details. In some examples, methods, means, components and circuits well known to those skilled in the art are not described in detail in order to highlight the subject matter of the present application.

[0016] The present application provides a three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device, comprising a support part, a material storage shell and a feeding device. The feeding part and the feeding device are both installed on the support part, the shell side wall of the material storage shell is provided with a first feeding port and a first discharging port, and the feeding device comprises a feeding part, a feeding wheel and a feeding driving device;

[0017] The side wall of the loading part is provided with a second feeding port and a second discharging port; wherein the second feeding port is connected with the first discharging port, so that the feed material inside the storage shell enters the inside of the loading part through the first discharging port and the second feeding port in sequence;

[0018] The loading wheel is located inside the loading part, between the second feeding port and the second discharging port; and the loading wheel is provided with a connecting part, and is rotatably installed in the loading part through the connecting part; the connecting part is provided with more than two blades, the more than two blades are arranged at intervals, and each blade extends from the side of the connecting part toward the inner wall of the loading wheel, so that the end of the blade not connected to the loading wheel protrudes out of the side wall of the connecting part;

[0019] The driving end of the feeding drive device is connected to the connecting part to drive the connecting part to drive the blade to rotate, so that the feed from the second feeding port is transmitted to the second discharge port through the rotation of the blade for feeding. In the present application, the blade is arranged, and the material is accumulated in front of the blade at the first discharge port. The blade rotates with the feeding drive device, stirring and pushing the material in front of the rotation direction until it is discharged from the second discharge port and fed into the feeding container of the animal.

[0020] This application sets a feeding drive device, and the automated machine autonomously drives the feeding wheel to rotate and feed, and delivers the stored feed to the animal trough. Compared with manual feeding one by one, the labor intensity is high, the degree of automation is low, and the expansion process of breeding scale is limited. This application can realize intelligent feeding in agriculture, improve the level of intelligence, reduce manual input, reduce manual labor intensity, and realize high-density feeding in a large feeding area.

[0021] In a possible implementation, in order to expand the scope of application of the present application and meet higher feeding requirements, the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device provided by the present application adds a walking mechanism to the support part, which not only feeds one trough or one animal, but also feeds multiple feeding animals, and can add feed to multiple feeding containers. Specifically:

[0022] The side wall of the support part is provided with a walking mechanism to drive the displacement of the support part, thereby driving all parts installed thereon (including but not limited to the feeding part, the loading device and the output control part) to move, and adding feed to different feeding containers to provide feed for the animals raised in the corresponding feeding containers. Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the walking mechanism drives the movement of the support part, which means that the walking wheel and the synchronous belt are used to achieve the up and down displacement of the support part, so that the support part, the material storage shell, the feeding device and the output connector are displaced to different layer height positions, so that when the output connector is rotated out, the material holding groove is just located directly above each feeding container in the feeding area of ​​this layer, and the feeding adjustment part can be operated to add the feed in the material holding groove to each feeding container in the feeding area of ​​this layer. By setting a walking mechanism, the present application can drive the overall displacement of the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device, for example, moving to the feeding area to feed the material storage shell, for example, walking to the feeding trough or feeding container of the feeding animal, so that the feeding device can feed and load materials in a targeted manner.

[0023] In a possible implementation, the material storage shell is provided with more than two first discharge ports, the number of the loading devices, the second feed ports and the first discharge ports is the same, and the second feed ports are arranged opposite to the first discharge ports one by one.

[0024] In a possible implementation, a channel opening adjustment part is provided in the connecting channel between the first discharge port and the second feed port, which is used to adjust the channel area size of the feeding material passing through the connecting channel between the first discharge port and the second feed port. Furthermore, an adjustment opening is provided on the side wall of the connecting point between the first discharge port and the second feed port. The channel opening adjustment part is in the shape of a long strip. One end of the body length of the channel opening adjustment part is located in the aforementioned connecting channel, and the other end of the body length passes through the connecting channel through the adjustment opening. A sliding gap is provided between the channel opening adjustment part and the inner wall of the adjustment opening. The channel opening adjustment part is slidably connected to the side wall of the adjustment opening to slide in the connecting channel, thereby relative displacement with the connecting channel. By utilizing this relative displacement, the position of one end of the body length of the channel opening adjustment part located in the channel is changed, thereby changing the distance between this end and the inner wall of the channel away from the adjustment opening, changing the coverage area of ​​the channel opening adjustment part on the connecting channel, thereby changing the area of ​​the feeding material passing therein, and adjusting the feeding material passing speed.

[0025] Furthermore, a handle is provided at one end of the channel opening adjustment part passing through the connecting channel. Furthermore, a gripping hole is provided at one end of the channel opening adjustment part passing through the connecting channel, and a handle is formed at the passing end so as to extend into the gripping hole to grip the channel opening adjustment part and operate the sliding.

[0026] In a possible implementation, the channel opening adjustment part is made of a sheet material that is elastic and easy to deform, such as a bamboo piece or a thin metal plate with good elasticity. The feeding wheel is provided with an arc-shaped protrusion at one end of the second feeding port, and the angle between the chord of the arc-shaped protrusion and the opening axis of the second discharging port is an acute angle. The outer wall of the end of the storage shell provided with the first discharging port is relatively provided with an arc-shaped depression matching the arc-shaped protrusion. After insertion, the channel opening adjustment part is deformed into an arc-shaped plate matching the arc-shaped protrusion and the depression, and the second feeding port is switched to fully open, half-covered, fully closed and other states. A preset gap is provided between the arc-shaped protrusion of the feeding wheel and the arc-shaped protrusion of the storage shell for the channel opening adjustment part to lift and slide to achieve feeding and extraction. Furthermore, the channel opening adjustment part is in the form of a long strip, and its sliding direction is consistent with its body length direction. The outer side wall of one end of the feeding part with the second feeding port is provided with a clamping protrusion, and the sheet-shaped side of the channel opening adjustment part is provided with more than two clamping grooves matching the clamping protrusion, and the more than two clamping grooves are adjacently arranged along the body length direction of the channel opening adjustment part.

[0027] In one possible implementation, the material storage shell includes a material storage shell and a material discharge shell, the side wall of the material storage shell is provided with a first material feed port and a material storage outlet, the internal cavity of the material discharge shell is in the shape of a quadrangular prism as a whole, the bottom quadrilateral of the quadrangular prism is a trapezoid, and the material storage interface and the first material discharge port are provided on the opposite side walls of the material discharge shell along the direction in which the trapezoidal structure is raised, the opening edges of the material storage interface and the first material discharge port are both located on the side edges of the quadrangular prism structure of the material discharge shell, the material storage outlet is matched with and connected to the material storage interface, and the opening area of ​​the first material discharge port is smaller than the opening area of ​​the material discharge interface.

[0028] In a possible implementation, the support portion is provided with a camera device, which is suitable for photographing and monitoring the motion state of the feed output by the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device and the accumulation state of the feed entering the feeding container. The camera device is also suitable for photographing the state of the animal to be raised and the contents of the feeding container (such as the accumulation of feed) outward. The camera result is uploaded to an external terminal for image display, or the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device also includes a display terminal, and the display terminal and the support portion are independently arranged, without a mechanical connection structure. The camera device is wirelessly connected to the display terminal, and the output end of the camera device transmits the image to the display terminal, and the display terminal displays it through its display screen, so that personnel can judge the inventory status of the animal, the amount of food in the trough, whether it is necessary to feed, and how much food should be fed, thereby generating a control instruction. The camera device switches the opening and closing state according to the control instruction. More importantly, the control end of the feeding drive device is wirelessly connected to the display terminal, receives the control instruction, switches the opening and closing state, adjusts the speed of the feeding wheel, etc. Personnel can also manually adjust the opening of the first discharge port and the second discharge port according to the image result of the display terminal.

[0029] In one possible implementation, the camera of the camera device is installed on the inner wall of the third discharge port to capture the feeding status of the third discharge port. Furthermore, the number of camera devices is consistent with the number of third discharge ports and they are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. In another possible implementation, the output control member is provided with a camera device, the camera of the camera device is located in the movement track of the output opening, and the displacement of the feeding adjustment member is used to expose the camera to the feeding area environment through the output opening to capture the feeding, feeding container and feeding animal status. Preferably, a camera device is provided between two adjacent third discharge ports.

[0030] In a possible implementation, the connecting portion is cylindrical, and one end of the blade is fixed to the radial side wall of the connecting portion. Along the radial direction of the connecting portion, the other end of the blade protrudes out of the side wall of the connecting portion, and the feeding wheel is installed inside the feeding portion. The driving end of the feeding drive device is connected to the connecting portion to drive the connecting portion to rotate around its cylindrical axis, and the blade rotates with the connecting portion to transfer the feed at the second feed port to the second discharge port for output. Two or more blades are distributed around the circumference of the connecting portion. Two or more blades distributed around the circumference form a material transport cavity between two adjacent blades. The feeding cavity is transferred to the second feed port to be filled with feed, and as the blades rotate to the second discharge port, the feed is output to the feeding trough of the feeding animal under the action of gravity. Furthermore, the inner wall of the feeding part is cylindrical as a whole, the feeding wheel matches the feeding part, the blade adopts a flexible brush, the flexible brush is in the shape of a long strip as a whole, the length direction of the bristles of the flexible brush is consistent with the length direction of the flexible brush, one end of the body of the flexible brush is connected to the connecting part, the other end of the body protrudes out of the radial side wall of the connecting part and abuts against the inner wall of the feeding part, and both side walls of the body width of the end of the flexible brush protruding out abut against the inner wall of the feeding part. The axis of the connecting part is located on the plate-shaped plane of the flexible brush.

[0031] In a possible implementation, baffles are provided at opposite ends of the connecting part along its axial direction, and the baffles are in the form of annular protrusions protruding from the radial side wall of the connecting part, and the blade is located between the baffles on both sides. Further, one end of the body length of the flexible brush is connected to the connecting part through a connector. A connecting groove matching the connecting part is provided on the radial side wall of the connecting part, and the connecting groove is open on three sides along the opposite sides of the axial direction of the connecting part and along the radial outer side of the connecting part. The connecting part is inserted into the connecting groove along the axial direction of the connecting part, so that the other end of the body length of the flexible brush can protrude from the radial side wall of the connecting part through the opening of the connecting groove. Subsequently, the baffles at both ends of the axial direction of the connecting part are installed. At this time, the connecting groove becomes a groove-shaped structure with an opening set along one side of the radial outer side of the connecting part, and the opening in this direction is completely covered by the flexible brush. The flexible brush is composed of a plurality of bristles with the same body length and roots connected to the connecting part. If the number of bristles is large enough, it will become a plate with a certain thickness and become a complete blade. At the same time, the tip of the bristle has a certain hardness, which can play the role of separating the chamber and sealing. At the same time, the tip of the bristle is not provided with a connection structure such as a watering hot-melt re-solidification part. The roots are scattered and have a certain soft deformation ability. There will be no intense friction loss with the inner wall of the feeding part. Therefore, the gap between the tip of the flexible brush and the inner wall of the feeding part should be significantly reduced, which is smaller than the rotation gap that must be reserved for the hard blades. It can also reduce the wear and tear of the feeding caused by hard friction. If the animal being raised is a scorpion and the feed is live insects, the flexible brush can also reduce wear and tear and ensure the survival rate and freshness of the feed. The root of the bristle is harder and fully covers and fills the opening of the connection groove located on the radial outside of the connection part, which is not easy for live insects to drill into and escape, reducing unnecessary risks and reducing maintenance and cleaning costs.

[0032] In a possible implementation, the support portion is provided with an output control member, and the output control member is provided with a third discharge port, and the loading portion is located between the first discharge port and the third discharge port. The first discharge port and the second feed port are arranged relative to each other, and the third discharge port and the second discharge port are arranged relative to each other. The feed outputted from the second discharge port by the loading portion passes through the third discharge port, passes through the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device, and enters the feeding container. The output control member is also provided with a feeding adjustment member, which is slidably connected to the output control member (through a slide rail, etc.) (or connected through a feeding adjustment drive device), and the third discharge port is located in the (sliding / driving) displacement coverage area of ​​the feeding adjustment member. The present application is applicable to the displacement of the feeding adjustment member to change the coverage area of ​​the closed side wall of the feeding adjustment member relative to the third discharge port, thereby adjusting the size of the channel area through which the feed passes through the third feed port, and opening and closing the third discharge port / discharging speed control.

[0033] In one possible implementation, the feeding adjustment member is in the shape of an elongated plate, and the output control member is provided with a feeding adjustment drive device. The driving end of the feeding adjustment drive device is connected to the feeding adjustment member, and is used to drive the linear displacement of the feeding adjustment member on the output control member. The linear displacement direction of the feeding adjustment member is consistent with the direction of its body length. The feeding adjustment member is provided with an output opening that matches the third discharge port, and the output opening runs through both ends of the plate surface of the feeding adjustment member along the body thickness (thickness) direction of the elongated plate-shaped body. The number of the output openings is consistent with the third discharge port (or preferably, the output opening is one less than the third discharge port, and the output opening is not provided corresponding to the third discharge port that is closest to the displacement starting point of the feeding adjustment member or the displacement end point. Figures 15 to 17 As shown, there is one less output opening than the third discharge port, and the third discharge port closest to the displacement end point is not correspondingly provided with an output opening. Relying on the displacement of the side wall at the end of the feeding adjustment member, the discharge is covered and closed or the end is removed and no longer covered to achieve discharge. Except for the third discharge port without an output opening, the other third discharge ports are arranged one by one opposite to the output opening.). Regardless of whether the number is the same or one less, the shape, size, relative position relationship of each output opening, and the spacing between two adjacent output openings are all consistent with those of the third discharge port. Therefore, when the feeding adjustment member slides and displaces to a certain point, the output opening can be opposite to the third discharge port one by one, and the output opening and the third discharge port opposite to it are completely matched, so that the feeding can pass smoothly from the third discharge port at the fastest speed.

[0034] It should be noted that the present application does not limit the driving method and specific structure of the feeding adjustment drive device, as long as the feeding adjustment member can be driven to slide relative to the output control member and linearly displace on the output control member. A driving motor with linear displacement at the driving end can be used, and a rotary driving motor, gear and rack can be used. Specifically: the driving end of the rotary driving motor is coaxially connected to the gear, the gear is driven by the rotary driving motor to rotate around its own axis, the rack is meshed with the gear, and the rotational motion of the gear is converted into linear displacement of the rack. The feeding adjustment member is connected to the rack to achieve linear displacement sliding.

[0035] The present application does not specifically limit the position of the feeding adjustment member on the output control member, as long as it can slide and move to adjust the size of the feeding passage. The feeding adjustment member can be located on either side of the output control member along the opening direction of the third discharge port. For example, Figure 5 and Figures 15 to 17 As shown, the output control member is located between the loading device and the feeding adjustment member, and the loading portion and the feeding adjustment member are respectively located on opposite sides of the output control member along the opening direction of the third discharge port.

[0036] like Figures 15 to 17 As shown, the feeding adjustment member is connected to the driving end of the feeding drive device fixed to a side wall of the output control member (along the opening direction of the third discharge port) so that the feeding adjustment member can be linearly displaced relative to the output control member.

[0037] In this possible implementation, a closing plate may be provided on the side of the feeding adjustment member facing away from the output control member, and the closing plate is provided with flow holes. The plate-shaped outer edge of the closing plate is connected to the side wall of the output control member to close the feeding adjustment member in a relatively sealed cavity, which has a certain mechanical sealing protection effect and has the effect of preventing dust and interference.

[0038] As long as the flow perforations match the third discharge port, the number is consistent and they are arranged one by one, the preset cavity formed by the connection between the closing plate and the output control member is a reserved cavity for the displacement setting of the feeding adjustment member, or a corresponding through hole is set to ensure the function and effect of the linear displacement.

[0039] In one possible implementation, the three-dimensional feeding automatic device provided by the present application is suitable for high-density animal breeding. Multiple layers are matched, and each layer has multiple feeding rooms distributed in a grid pattern, and a feeding device with a feeding trough opening is set above the feeding room. In order to save feeding space, the interlayer spacing of each layer of such high-density culture is generally small, and it is difficult for the feeding device that can store and load materials to move between layers as a whole, and then discharge and feed materials to the corresponding position. The present application utilizes the sliding of the feeding adjustment part to transform the output control part into a device that can temporarily hold and store materials, and adds a rotating connecting cantilever. The connecting cantilever is used to rotate the thinner output control part out so that it extends above the feeding trough between layers, and then the sliding of the feeding adjustment part is used to accurately feed the feed contained in the output control part. Specifically:

[0040] The support part is provided with a cantilever drive device and a connecting cantilever, the cantilever drive device is installed on the side wall of the support part, the drive end of the cantilever drive device is connected to one end of the connecting cantilever to drive the connecting cantilever to rotate, and the other end of the connecting cantilever is connected to the output control member to drive the output control member to rotate. Preferably: the support part includes a first support member and a second support member, the first support member is provided with a cantilever drive device and a connecting cantilever, and the drive end of the cantilever drive device is connected to one end of the connecting cantilever to drive the connecting cantilever to rotate.

[0041] The driving end of the cantilever driving device is a rotating shaft, and the connecting cantilever is connected to the side wall along its rotating radial direction, and rotates with the rotating shaft and around the axis of the rotating shaft. The storage shell and the feeding device are both installed on the second support. The output control member is located on the side of the feeding device provided with the second discharge port, and there is a gap between the output control member and the second support member and the storage shell and the feeding device installed thereon. The intervals are independently set and not connected, and the material can be freely recovered and discharged from the bottom of the feeding device. One end of the connecting cantilever is connected to the driving end of the cantilever driving device, and the other end extends out of the first support member and is connected to the output control member, which is used to drive the output control member to rotate around the second support member (to be precise, around the axis of the rotating shaft of the cantilever driving device on the second support member). The connecting cantilever and the output control member are both long strips, and the connecting cantilever and the output control member are located on the same straight line, which is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft of the cantilever driving device. The opening direction of the second discharge port is consistent with the rotation axis of the axis of the rotating shaft of the cantilever driving device.

[0042] In addition, the linear displacement sliding of the feeding adjustment drive device can slide to any position at any time and lock it. The feeding adjustment drive device is preferably the aforementioned motor, gear and rack combination. The motor is provided with a rotary switch. When the rotation stops, the drive shaft is locked, thereby keeping the gear from rotating and the rack from moving.

[0043] Furthermore, the feeding portion and the feeding adjustment member are respectively located on opposite sides of the output control member along the opening direction of the third discharge port, and the third discharge port has a certain preset length along its opening direction. The feeding adjustment member is displaced so that the side wall of the feeding adjustment member closes and covers the opening of one end of the third discharge port away from the second discharge port. At this time, the third discharge port and the side wall of the feeding adjustment member form a material receiving groove that opens toward one side of the second discharge port.

[0044] The connecting cantilever is rotated so that the output control member is arranged opposite to the feeding device. At this time, the feeding adjustment drive device is used to displace the feeding adjustment member so that it closes the third discharge port away from the second discharge port, forming a material holding groove. The feeding wheel is used to output the feed from the second discharge port to the material holding groove. Then the output control member is rotated to extend into the interlayer until it is rotated in place, and the material holding groove and the food trough opening are arranged oppositely. The feeding adjustment drive device is used to displace the feeding adjustment member, open the third discharge port (or the output opening between the second discharge port and the output opening) away from the second discharge port, and feed the food trough below. Then turn back to the output control member, while using the walking mechanism (preferably the gear and the synchronous belt meshing therewith) to move to the corresponding height of the upper or lower layer, while using the feeding adjustment drive device to displace the feeding adjustment member to re-form the bottom closed material holding groove, and drive the feeding wheel to rotate to re-add materials, and rotate again to extend into another layer of material discharge. The rest of the layers are analogous.

[0045] In a possible implementation, the connecting cantilever of the support portion is provided with an output control member, which is a part of the connecting cantilever and is located at an end of the connecting cantilever away from the cantilever driving device.

[0046] In a possible implementation, the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device also includes a mounting seat to connect the cantilever drive device and the side wall of the support part. In other words, the cantilever drive device is connected to the side wall of the support part through the mounting seat. The side wall of the support part (preferably the first support member of the support part) is provided with a mounting angle adjustment device, and the mounting seat / cantilever drive device itself is connected to the side wall of the support part through the mounting angle adjustment device, so as to fine-tune the installation angle of the cantilever drive device on the support part, and adjust the output control member to an angle suitable for extending into the interlayer gap of the high-density feeding device. The interlayer gap is generally a horizontal gap, and at this time, the mounting angle adjustment device can correct the output control member that has deflected and is no longer horizontal. If the interlayer gap is a non-horizontal gap that is inclined upward or downward, the angle adjustment of the connecting cantilever and the output control member connected to it can also be achieved by adjusting the mounting angle of the cantilever drive device until the directions of the remaining interlayer gaps match and the rotation can be smoothly extended.

[0047] In a possible implementation, the mounting angle adjustment device includes more than two height adjustment devices. The height adjustment device can change the distance between the support seat and the cantilever drive device at a certain point by utilizing its own axial expansion and contraction (one end of the height adjustment device along its expansion and contraction direction is fixed to the mounting seat / cantilever drive device, and the other end along its expansion and contraction direction is connected to the side wall of the support portion. For example, the height adjustment device is a linear displacement driver fixed on the support portion, which is suitable for driving its drive shaft to linearly displace along its axial direction. The extension and contraction effect can be achieved by extending one end of the drive shaft and connecting it to the mounting seat / cantilever drive device) or other forms of displacement. The connection positions of the two or more height adjustment devices on the side wall of the mounting seat / cantilever drive device are different, and the support spacing of different support positions changes. The increase and decrease of the spacing can achieve the effect of raising one side and lowering the other side, thereby fine-tuning the installation angle of the cantilever drive device on the support seat.

[0048] Furthermore, the height adjustment device is a screw rod, the support portion is provided with an opening, the inner wall of the opening is provided with an internal thread matching the external thread of the screw rod, one axial end of the screw rod is provided with a limiting portion, and the other end passes through the opening (threadedly connected to the inner wall of the opening) and is connected to the side wall of the mounting seat / cantilever drive device. Rotating the screw rod can make the screw rod as a whole linearly displaced, change the position of the opening on the screw rod, thereby changing the distance between the opening and the axial end of the threaded rod that is away from the limiting portion (the end connected to the side wall of the mounting seat / cantilever drive device), and use the friction between the threads to lock the support to keep the angle unchanged, and the screw rod will only be displaced when an external force drives it to rotate. Furthermore, there are three height adjustment devices, and the number of openings and screw rods is the same and they are connected one by one.

[0049] In a possible implementation, a virtual circle is set, and the three opening centers are located on the three radii of the virtual circle. The angles between the three radii are all 120°. This application does not specifically limit the distance from the opening center to the center of the virtual circle, as long as it is on the radius. Furthermore, the distances from the three opening centers to the center of the virtual circle are consistent. The larger this distance is, the greater the degree of angle change achieved by a slight rotation of the screw, and it can be flexibly set according to specific usage requirements.

[0050] In a possible implementation, the support portion (preferably the first support member of the support portion) is further provided with a mounting groove matching the mounting seat, the mounting seat is located in the mounting groove, the cantilever drive device is located at one end of the mounting groove opening and outside the mounting groove, and the cantilever drive device is connected to the support seat. A correction opening is provided through the side wall of the mounting groove at one end away from its opening, and an internal thread is provided on the inner wall of the correction opening. The limiting portion of the screw is located outside the mounting groove, and the axial end of the screw away from the limiting portion penetrates into the mounting groove through the correction opening and is connected to the mounting seat. An angle adjustment gap is provided between the mounting seat and the inner wall of the mounting groove to make way for the angle adjustment displacement of the mounting seat, and the areas where the mounting seat may appear during fine-tuning and correction are all processed with a clearance. In a possible embodiment, the mounting seat is only a solid cylindrical plate. In another possible embodiment, the mounting seat is a plane thrust ball bearing.

[0051] In a possible implementation, the number of the third discharge port and the second discharge port is consistent and they are arranged one by one relative to each other. It should be noted that the present application does not make further restrictions on the connection and positional relationship between the first discharge port and the second feed port, and the connection and positional relationship between the second discharge port and the third discharge port. As long as they can be arranged relatively, the feed output from the first discharge port can enter from the second feed port, and the feed output from the second discharge port can exit from the third discharge port. The first discharge port can be connected to the second feed port through a sealed connecting pipe, or a certain preset gap can be provided. Regardless of the external shape of the loading wheel, the second discharge port and the third discharge port are connected to each other through a sealed connecting pipe, or a certain preset gap can be provided.

[0052] In a possible implementation, the outer portion of the loading wheel is also cylindrical, and the second feeding port and the second discharging port are adjacently arranged on the radial side wall of the loading portion. Preferably, the second feeding port and the second discharging port are both located on the radial side wall of the loading portion, and are respectively located at opposite ends of the loading portion along the radial direction. At this time, the second discharging port and the third discharging port are sealed and connected through a connecting pipe, and a certain preset gap may also be provided.

[0053] When a certain preset gap is provided between the first discharge port and the second feed port, or / and a certain preset gap is provided between the second discharge port and the third discharge port, the passage of the feed is not a sealed passage surrounded by a closed side wall, but an open open passage, which relies on the relatively arranged openings and gravity to constrain the direction of travel. This can already ensure the normal passage of most feeds without leakage. And the feeding adjustment drive device will shift the feeding adjustment part into place, and the feeding wheel will be started to rotate only when the lower side of the feeding groove is closed. Under normal circumstances, there is no situation where the feeding is not closed in time and leaks from the bottom. On this basis, in line with the idea of ​​saving and cleaning, in order to save feeding in abnormal situations and prevent live worm feeding from leaking out of the service life of the imaging equipment, the second support member provided in the present application is provided with a collection trough, and the feeding part is located on one side of the slot-shaped opening of the output control member, and the output control member opposite to the feeding device is located between the collection trough and the feeding part. Set a virtual projection plane so that the slot-shaped opening direction of the output control member is perpendicular to the projection plane. Taking the slot opening direction of the output control member as the projection direction, the projection of the slot opening edge of the collecting slot on the projection plane forms a closed area, the projection area of ​​the feeding part on the projection plane is smaller than the area of ​​the closed area, and the projection of the feeding part on the projection plane is entirely located in the closed area. The projection area of ​​the output control member on the projection plane is smaller than the area of ​​the closed area, and the projection of the output control member on the projection plane is entirely located in the closed area.

[0054] By installing the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device provided by the present application, keeping the virtual projection plane parallel to the horizontal plane, and keeping the slot opening direction of the output control component consistent with the gravity direction, it can be ensured that if any feed accidentally leaks out from the preset gap, it will fall into the slot cavity of the output control component under the action of gravity, which is convenient for collection and reuse, thereby reducing feed waste and reducing environmental pollution in the breeding area.

[0055] In a possible implementation, the output control member can be detachably connected to the support portion, such as a concave and convex clamping connection, and the collected feed can be removed and poured out for collection. The output control member can also be divided into a first part, a second part, and a third part that are connected in sequence (all are detachably connected, such as a concave and convex hanging groove clamping connection, supported by gravity on the downward side, and can be pulled out from any direction other than the downward direction of gravity when disassembled), the first part and the third part respectively include the opposite side walls of the output control member slot structure (only the opposite side walls or the opposite side walls and the side wall partially away from the outlet, the split fracture can be flexibly set, and the third discharge port exists and passes through the bottom side wall of the slot), the third discharge port is located in the second part, passes through the opposite side walls of the second part, and the first part and the third part are respectively connected to the other opposite side walls of the second part.

[0056] In a possible implementation, the walking mechanism includes walking wheels, and the support part is provided with walking wheels. The support part and its supporting connected parts are driven to move to the target area by the rotation of the walking wheels on the slide rail or the ground. For example, the walking mechanism walks to the feeding area to add feed to the storage shell, walks to the feeding trough for feeding animals, and uses the feeding device to feed the trough, and keeps walking until the feeding work is completed or the feeding is exhausted.

[0057] Furthermore, the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device does not need human power to move, and the walking mechanism also includes a walking drive device, preferably a rotary drive motor. The walking wheel is connected to the rotating shaft (that is, its driving end) of the rotary drive motor fixed on the support part, and the walking wheel is connected to the support part through the rotary drive motor. The walking wheel is driven by the rotary drive device to rotate to realize the walking displacement of the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device.

[0058] Furthermore, the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device is provided with a synchronous belt conveyor as a walking mechanism of the support part, and the support part is fixedly connected to the synchronous belt of the synchronous belt conveyor, and "walks" relative to the installation environment under the transmission of the synchronous belt conveyor. The synchronous belt conveyor includes a synchronous belt fixed to the feeding area and a running wheel connected to the outer wall of the support part, wherein the running wheel is a gear matching the synchronous belt, the gear is meshed with the synchronous belt, and the gear is driven by human power or a driving device (preferably a rotary motor type driving device) to rotate on the synchronous belt, and the rotational motion of the gear is converted into its linear displacement on the synchronous belt, and moved to the next area to be fed.

[0059] In a possible implementation, the support portion is located between two adjacent synchronous belts whose length direction and transmission direction are consistent. Gears are provided at opposite ends of the support portion. The gears on both sides of the support portion are respectively engaged with the two synchronous belts to transmit the support portion as a whole. The rotation axis of the gears at both ends of the support portion remains consistent, and the displacement (displacement direction, distance, etc.) on the corresponding synchronous belt is synchronized. Gears are provided at opposite ends of the support portion, which may mean that: one end of the first support member facing away from the second support member, and one end of the second support member facing away from the first support member, are both provided with gears, and the rotation axis is consistent, and the displacement on the corresponding synchronous belt is synchronized.

[0060] In a possible implementation, the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device also includes a guide track, which includes two long rails arranged oppositely, and the outer walls of the support part on both sides are provided with tension wheels, which are arranged oppositely to the guide track. The two long rails of the guide track are respectively close to the opposite ends of the support part, and the tension wheels on both sides of the support part are arranged oppositely to the two long rails, and the tension wheels abut the side of the long rails corresponding to them, rather than abutting against the pillow surface of the long rails. The rotation axis of the tension wheel is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the gear, and the rotation axis of the tension wheel is perpendicular to the body length direction of the synchronous belt (if the synchronous belt is bypassed, it is perpendicular to the body length direction of the synchronous belt as a whole, and perpendicular to the transmission direction of the synchronous belt transmission support part as a whole and the parts supported by it). It should be noted that the side of the long rail refers to, assuming that the body width direction of the long rail is the first direction, the two long rails are arranged adjacently along the first direction, and the two sides of the long rail along the first direction are its side. The side of the long rail close to the other long rail is the inner side, and the side of the long rail away from the other long rail is the outer side. Assume that the thickness direction of the long rail is the second direction, the second direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the long rail and also perpendicular to the first direction, one side of the long rail along the thickness direction is its pillow surface, and the other side is its bottom surface.

[0061] Furthermore, the tensioning wheels of the support parts are all located outside the guide rails, abutting against the outer side of the long rails, and rotating on the outer side of the long rails. The support parts are tightened on the guide rails to prevent them from shaking left and right, and have a certain guiding effect.

[0062] In one possible implementation, Figure 3 As shown, the three-dimensional feeding automatic feeding device also includes a guide track. The guide track includes two long rails arranged opposite to each other, and a guide wheel group is provided on the outer walls of the supporting part on opposite sides, and the tension wheel is arranged opposite to the guide track. The two long rails of the guide track are respectively close to the opposite ends of the supporting part, and the guide wheel groups on both sides of the supporting part are arranged opposite to the two long rails, and the guide wheel group includes a guide wheel abutting against the two pillow surfaces of the corresponding long rails.

[0063] In a possible implementation, in order to increase the meshing area between the gear and the synchronous belt and prevent the gear from falling off the synchronous belt due to shaking during the displacement process, two rotating parts are also provided on the support part of the present application, and the rotating parts and the gears are respectively located on both sides of the thickness direction of the synchronous belt. The two rotating parts are respectively close to the opposite sides of the radial direction of the gear. Further, along the body length direction of the synchronous belt, the gear is located between the two rotating parts. The front side of the synchronous belt in the thickness direction is provided with a toothed structure meshing with the gear, and the rear side is a smooth plate surface. One end of the body length of the synchronous belt passes around and abuts against the rotating outer wall of a rotating part, the gear and the rotating outer wall of another rotating part in turn. The rotating part, the gear and the other rotating part are successively located on the rear side, the front side and the rear side of the synchronous belt along its thickness direction. By providing the rotating part, the synchronous belt is bent into an arc belt with a certain curvature, which increases its meshing area with the gear and ensures the connection stability.

[0064] The rotating part includes a fixed shaft and a rotating sleeve sleeved on the fixed shaft. A certain rotation gap is set between the rotating sleeve and the fixed shaft. The fixed shaft is provided with limit parts at both ends in the axial direction. The rotating sleeve is located between the limit parts at both ends to prevent the rotating part from axially escaping. The rotating sleeve is a hollow cylindrical annular sleeve with a radial cross section in the shape of a circular ring. The rotating sleeve is made of wear-resistant flexible material, which can reduce friction loss, reduce unnecessary energy consumption, and save energy.

[0065] In a possible implementation, the travel drive device, the feeding drive device, the cantilever drive device, and the feeding adjustment drive device are all provided with a controller for controlling the rotation speed / linear displacement value, controlling the switching of the rotation direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) / linear displacement direction (forward or backward), and controlling the switching of the start and stop states of the driving work. Among them, the controller can be provided with a drive switch, which is provided on the outer wall of the support part for easy operation. The drive switch is preferably a micro switch. Figure 1 As shown, a micro switch of the travel drive device is installed on the outer wall of the first support member.
