Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of poultry farming technology, specifically to a feeding device and feeding method for poultry farms. Background Technology

[0002] Poultry farming refers to the process of artificially raising and managing poultry for the purpose of obtaining meat, eggs, feathers, or other products (such as fertilizer, ornamental items, etc.). Poultry mainly includes chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, quails, pigeons, etc. They are an important part of agriculture and the food industry. Poultry feeding is a key link in the farming process, directly affecting the growth, egg production rate, health level, and farming efficiency of poultry.

[0003] The prior art discloses a Chinese patent with application number CN202411166532.2, a pig feeding device for livestock breeding, which discloses that by setting a feed guiding component, feed is fed in a segmented manner from inside the feed storage box to inside the feeding trough plate, and the feed is evenly piled inside the feeding trough plate. At this time, a leveling component is set to spread the feed evenly inside the feeding trough plate, so that when piglets are driven to eat outside the feeding trough plate, the amount of feed in each position inside the feeding trough plate is the same, thereby avoiding the piglets from overeating and effectively improving the quality of piglets after feeding. By setting an adjustment component, the bottom plate is driven upward, causing the discharge trough to retract into the upper discharge cylinder. After adjusting the position of the bottom plate, the rotating screw is rotated and pressed into the slot to fix the adjusting protrusion. By controlling the position of the lower discharge cylinder inside the upper discharge cylinder, the amount of feed stored between the lower and upper discharge cylinders can be controlled, thereby adapting to the feeding of pigs at different growth stages.

[0004] While the aforementioned device can feed piglets, it still has some drawbacks in its use: 1. The above-mentioned device can meet the feeding needs of pigs, allowing feed to accumulate in the feed trough board, making it convenient for piglets to eat in batches. However, when feeding poultry, due to the poultry's tendency to scratch, the poultry will scratch the feed a lot when eating, causing the feed to fall to the ground. This not only wastes the feed, but also causes the fallen feed to return to the poultry house and cause mobile pollution. In addition, the above-mentioned device cannot meet the simultaneous supply of feed and water for poultry. 2. When feeding piglets, the above-mentioned device requires manual feeding. However, when applied to poultry, frequent manual feeding increases the workload and cannot automatically replenish feed according to the amount of feed consumed by the poultry in the poultry house. Furthermore, the irregular intervals of manual feeding can easily lead to hunger in the poultry. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feeding device and feeding method for poultry farms, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art of preventing feed waste caused by poultry scratching during feeding and the inability to automatically add feed according to the amount of feed.

[0006] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A feeding device for poultry farms includes a feed bin with multiple feeding units and multiple water collection units arranged circumferentially around its exterior. A water tank is located in the center of the feed bin. The feeding units and water collection units are arranged alternately to make full use of the poultry house space. Poultry can quickly choose between foraging and water sources, which naturally guides them to drink frequently after feeding to aid digestion of dry feed. The alternating arrangement of multiple groups can reduce pecking behavior caused by poultry competing for feed or water, and alleviate group stress. The feeding units are equipped with anti-pecking nets to prevent poultry from scrambling feed while eating.

[0009] Preferably, the automatic replenishment unit includes a folded tube fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage box, a vertical tube fixedly installed at the bottom of the folded tube, a feed pipe detachably connected to the feed hopper on one side of the vertical tube, a hollow frame fixed to the storage box on the outside of the feed pipe, and a plug located inside the vertical tube fixedly installed on one side of the hollow frame.

[0010] Preferably, the water collection unit includes a fixed frame fixed to the outside of the storage tank, a water feeding hopper fixedly installed on one side of the fixed frame, a central bucket fixedly installed in the middle of the water feeding hopper, a water supply pipe connected to the water storage tank on one side of the central bucket, multiple arc-shaped sedimentation tanks on the water feeding hopper, and a cleaning hopper detachably threadedly connected to the bottom of the water feeding hopper.

[0011] Preferably, a circumferential groove is provided on the lower inner side of the water feeding hopper, a water baffle is slidably installed in the circumferential groove, a rubber sealing ring is provided on the outer edge of the water baffle, multiple springs are installed between the upper surface of the water baffle and the circumferential groove, and a connecting rod is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom of the water baffle.

[0012] Preferably, the purification section includes multiple drain outlets opening along the outer edge of the central tank, with filter screens installed inside the drain outlets, and an installation frame fixedly installed inside the central tank, on which an activated carbon plate is detachably installed.

[0013] Preferably, the dispersing branch includes a rotating tube located inside the storage bin, the rotating tube being located outside the storage bin, a plurality of circumferentially arranged dispersing plates being fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rotating tube, a gear being fixedly installed on the upper part of the rotating tube, an electric push plate being fixedly installed on the cover of the storage bin, a toothed plate meshing with the gear being fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the electric push plate, and an arc-shaped plate being fixedly installed on one side of the toothed plate.

[0014] Preferably, the drying section includes multiple air blowers fixedly arranged on the outer edge of the storage box, a common annular pipe is installed between the air blowers, an air transmission pipe is fixedly installed on the annular pipe, an air cylinder is fixedly installed at one end of the air transmission pipe, a piston rod is slidably installed in the middle of the air cylinder, an end component is fixedly installed at one end of the piston rod, and a roller is rotatably installed in the middle of the end component.

[0015] Another object of the present invention is to provide a feeding method for a feeding device used in a poultry farm, comprising the following steps: S1: Equipment placement: The equipment is placed in the poultry house. Then, feed and water are added to the feeding unit and water unit respectively for the poultry to eat on their own. The electric slider is opened to drive the hanging plate to lift and lower the feed hopper to meet the feeding needs of poultry at different heights. S2: Automatic feed replenishment: The automatic replenishment unit allows for the automatic replenishment of feed in the feed hopper after the feed has been used up, by utilizing the reduced weight of the feed hopper to move it upwards.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. This invention effectively prevents poultry from scratching the feed by setting up an anti-scratching net, thus preventing the feed from being thrown out of the feed hopper and reducing waste. On the one hand, the anti-scratching net can also prevent poultry from scratching grass clippings, feces, and soil into the feed, reducing the risk of feed contamination and lowering the risk of poultry diseases caused by feed contamination. On the other hand, the gaps in the mesh can slow down the speed at which poultry peck, preventing them from over-competing for food.

[0017] 2. This invention uses an electric slider to drive the hanging plate to slide downwards in the vertical groove, thereby simultaneously raising and lowering the placement rack and feed hopper. This can meet the feeding needs of poultry chicks and adult poultry. Furthermore, the feeding unit is equipped with multiple sets to simultaneously feed poultry at different growth stages when they are mixed. The feed hopper is located inside the placement rack and is detachable, which facilitates efficient removal of residual feed during cleaning, avoids the accumulation of dirt in dead corners, reduces bacterial growth, and lowers the risk of poultry diseases. Moreover, any feed hopper can be disassembled individually without affecting the poultry's feeding in the undisturbed feed hopper.

[0018] 3. Through the automatic replenishment mechanism, after the feed in the feed hopper has been consumed by poultry for a certain period of time, the weight of the feed in the feed hopper gradually decreases. Therefore, the tension of the feed hopper and the internal block on the spring decreases synchronously. At this time, the spring drives the internal block to move upward, and the internal block moves upward simultaneously, driving the feed hopper to move upward within the placement frame. When the feed hopper moves upward, the feed pipe and the vertical pipe move upward simultaneously. When the vertical pipe moves upward, it compresses the folded pipe, and the position of the plug on the vertical pipe also changes. At this time, the feed in the vertical pipe flows into the feed hopper through the feed pipe, thus completing the automatic replenishment of feed in the feed hopper. When the feed is added to a certain amount, as the weight of the feed hopper gradually increases, the feed hopper and the internal block increase the tension of the spring, causing the feed hopper to descend. This simultaneously drives the feed pipe and the vertical pipe to move downward. When the vertical pipe moves downward, it slides down outside the plug, causing the plug to block the connection between the vertical pipe and the feed pipe again, and the feed pipe stops replenishing feed into the feed hopper.

[0019] 4. This invention, through the setting of a sedimentation tank, allows feed and impurities brought into the water by poultry to settle and fall into the cleaning hopper after sedimentation. This effectively prevents the poultry from placing feed and impurities in the water hopper during water intake, thus avoiding water pollution. When cleaning the impurities settled at the bottom of the water, the cleaning hopper is rotated. As the cleaning hopper rotates and moves downward, the baffle plate and connecting rod move downward synchronously under the action of the spring. After the cleaning hopper is separated from the bottom of the water hopper, the baffle plate is located at the bottom of the circumferential trough. Since the bottom of the circumferential trough is lower than the lowest point of the circumferential trough, and the outer edge of the baffle plate is equipped with a rubber sealing ring, the water in the cleaning hopper will not leak when the cleaning hopper is removed from the bottom of the water hopper.

[0020] 5. When the electric push plate of this invention reciprocates, it simultaneously drives the toothed plate to reciprocate. The toothed plate meshes with the gear, causing the gear to rotate. The rotation of the gear, through the rotating tube, drives multiple dispersing plates to repeatedly agitate the feed in the storage bin. This agitation effectively prevents the feed from sticking and agglomerating in the storage bin, thus avoiding interference with subsequent feed replenishment. Furthermore, the meshing of the gear and toothed plate does not prevent the bin lid from being removed, facilitating the emptying and cleaning of the feed. As the toothed plate moves, it drives the dispersing plates to turn the feed to maintain its dispersion, and also moves the arc-shaped plate. The arc-shaped plate intermittently compresses the piston rod in the air cylinder. When the piston rod is compressed, the gas in the air cylinder blows air into the storage bin through the air transmission pipe, the annular pipe, and the blowing pipe. This airflow keeps the feed dry, preventing it from sticking due to internal moisture during storage, thus working in conjunction with the dispersing plates to dry the feed.

[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] As attached Figure 1-9 As shown, a feeding device for poultry farms includes a feed bin 1. The feed bin 1 is surrounded by multiple feeding units and multiple water collection units. A water collection tank 3 is located in the middle of the feed bin 1. The multiple feeding units and multiple water collection units are arranged alternately to make full use of the poultry house space. Poultry can quickly choose between foraging and water sources, and are naturally guided to drink water frequently after feeding to aid the digestion of dry feed. The multiple alternating layout can reduce pecking behavior caused by poultry competing for feed or water, and alleviate group stress. The feeding units are equipped with anti-pecking nets 211 to prevent poultry from scrambling feed while eating. By setting up the anti-scraping net 211, which is placed inside the feed hopper 21 and opposite the feed surface, the anti-scraping net 211 effectively inhibits the poultry's natural tendency to scratch the feed, preventing the feed from being thrown out of the feed hopper 21 and reducing waste. On the one hand, the anti-scraping net 211 can also prevent poultry from scratching grass, feces, and soil into the feed, reducing the risk of feed contamination and reducing poultry diseases caused by feed contamination. On the other hand, the gaps in the net can slow down the speed at which poultry peck, preventing them from over-grabbing.

[0025] The feeding unit includes a side frame 201 fixedly connected to the feed bin 1. A vertical groove 202 is provided on the side frame 201. A hanging plate 203 is slidably installed in the vertical groove 202 via an electric slider. A placement rack 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the hanging plate 203. A feed hopper 21 for holding feed for poultry is placed in the placement rack 2. An anti-shaving net 211 is placed in the feed hopper 21. An automatic replenishment unit connected to the feed bin 1 is provided on one side of the feed hopper 21. A purification unit is provided in the water collection unit. A dispersing branch is also provided on the feed bin 1. A drying unit for drying the feed in the feed bin 1 is also provided on one side of the dispersing branch. During the poultry chick stage, the electric slider is activated to move the hanging plate 203 downward within the vertical trough 202, simultaneously lowering the placement frame 2 and the feed hopper 21 until the feed hopper 21 is level with the chicks' necks. This prevents the feed in the feed hopper 21 from being too high, which would make it difficult for the chicks to eat. During the poultry adult stage, the electric slider is activated to move the hanging plate 203 upward within the vertical trough 202, matching the feed in the feed hopper 21 to the natural feeding posture of the poultry when standing, thus meeting the feeding needs of the adult poultry. When chicks and adult poultry are mixed, since there are multiple sets of feeding units, the height of multiple feed hoppers 21 can be flexibly adjusted according to usage needs to meet the feeding needs of poultry at different growth stages, thereby promoting uniform feeding. The feed hopper 21 is located inside the placement rack 2 and is detachable, which makes it easy to efficiently remove residual feed when cleaning the feed hopper 21, avoid the accumulation of dirt in dead corners, reduce bacterial growth and reduce the risk of poultry diseases. Furthermore, any feed hopper 21 can be disassembled without affecting the poultry's feeding in the undisassembled feed hopper 21. The feed hopper 21 is connected to the storage bin 1 via an automatic replenishment unit. Because the latch 206 in the internal block 205 drives the latch 207 to secure the side of the feed hopper 21, and the internal block 205 is connected to the top inner side of the guide frame 204 via a spring, after the feed in the feed hopper 21 has been consumed by poultry for a certain period, the weight of the feed in the feed hopper 21 gradually decreases. Therefore, the tension of the feed hopper 21 and the internal block 205 on the spring decreases synchronously. At this time, the spring drives the internal block 205 to move upwards, and as the internal block 205 moves upwards, it simultaneously drives the feed hopper 21 to move within the placement frame 2. As the feed hopper 21 moves upward, it simultaneously drives the feed pipe 24 and the vertical pipe 23 upward. The upward movement of the vertical pipe 23 compresses the folded pipe 22. At the same time, in the initial state, the plug 251 blocks the connection between the vertical pipe 23 and the feed pipe 24. As the vertical pipe 23 moves upward, the position of the plug 251 also changes. At this time, the feed in the vertical pipe 23 flows through the feed pipe 24 into the feed hopper 21, thus completing the automatic addition of feed to the feed hopper 21. When a certain amount of feed is added, due to the gradual increase in weight of the feed hopper 21, the feed... The feed hopper 21 and the internal block 205 increase the tension on the spring until the feed hopper 21 descends to the bottom of the placement rack 2. Simultaneously, the feed hopper 21 descends, driving the feed pipe 24 and the vertical pipe 23 downwards. As the vertical pipe 23 descends, it stretches and pulls the folded pipe 22. The extension and retraction of the folded pipe 22 also shakes and clears the feed inside, effectively preventing blockage. As the vertical pipe 23 descends, it slides down outside the stopper 251, causing the stopper 251 to block the connection between the vertical pipe 23 and the feed pipe 24 again. At this point, the vertical pipe 23 is released from its blockage. Feeding is supplied to the feed pipe 24. The feed pipe 24 stops replenishing the feed in the feed hopper 21. The top of the plug 251 is conical. Therefore, when the vertical pipe 23 moves, the plug 251 will have a certain impact on the feed, which will prevent the feed from sticking in the vertical pipe 23 and help the feed to disperse. Compared with the existing device, the present invention does not require frequent manual addition of feed during feeding. When replenishing the feed, no additional drive source is required. The feed in the feed hopper 21 can be automatically added by simply using the change in the weight of the feed in the feed hopper 21.

[0026] A guide frame 204 is fixedly installed in the middle of one side of the placement rack 2. An internal block 205 is slidably installed in the guide frame 204. A spring is provided between the internal block 205 and the guide frame 204. A locking rod 206 is slidably installed in the middle of the internal block 205. A locking block 207 is provided at one end of the locking rod 206 to lock and fix the feed hopper 21. When the feed hopper 21 is removed from the placement rack 2, first remove the bolts connecting the feed pipe 24 and the feed hopper 21. At this time, the feed pipe 24 and the feed hopper 21 are no longer fixed. Then, move the locking rod 206 outward on the inner block 205. At this time, the locking rod 206 drives the locking block 207 to disengage from the locking groove on the side of the guide frame 204. Then, the feed hopper 21 can be manually removed from the placement rack 2. Conversely, move the locking rod 206 inward. The locking rod 206 drives the locking block 207 to re-lock and fix the feed hopper 21 placed in the placement rack 2.

[0027] The automatic replenishment unit includes a folded tube 22 fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage box 1. A vertical tube 23 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the folded tube 22. A feed pipe 24 is provided on one side of the vertical tube 23 and is detachably connected to the feed hopper 21. A hollow frame 25 fixed to the storage box 1 is provided outside the feed pipe 24. A plug 251 located inside the vertical tube 23 is fixedly installed on one side of the hollow frame 25. By setting up the folded tube 22, when the feed hopper 21 moves up and down, driving the feed pipe 24 and the vertical pipe 23 to rise and fall, the folded tube 22 can adapt to extend and retract. When the folded tube 22 extends and retracts, it can also clear the feed inside the folded tube 22, effectively preventing the feed from getting blocked during feeding.

[0028] The water collection unit includes a fixed frame 30 fixed to the outside of the storage tank 1. A water feeding hopper 32 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed frame 30. A middle bucket 31 is fixedly installed in the middle of the water feeding hopper 32. A water supply pipe 34 connected to the water storage tank 3 is provided on one side of the middle bucket 31. Multiple arc-shaped sedimentation tanks 321 are opened on the water feeding hopper 32. A cleaning hopper 33 is detachably threadedly connected to the bottom of the water feeding hopper 32. The water hopper 32 meets the water intake needs of poultry during feeding. The water supply pipe 34 adds water from the water storage tank 3 to the central bucket 31. The sedimentation tank 321 allows feed and impurities brought into the water by poultry to settle and fall into the cleaning hopper 33, effectively preventing water pollution caused by poultry leaving feed and impurities in the water hopper 32. Compared with existing devices, the sedimentation tank 321 separates impurities from the water during poultry feeding, reducing poultry diseases caused by water pollution.

[0029] A circumferential groove 331 is provided on the lower inner side of the water feeding hopper 32. A water baffle 332 is slidably installed in the circumferential groove 331. A rubber sealing ring is provided on the outer edge of the water baffle 332. Multiple springs are installed between the upper end face of the water baffle 332 and the circumferential groove 331. A connecting rod 333 is fixedly installed at the bottom center of the water baffle 332. When cleaning impurities that have settled at the bottom of the water, the cleaning bucket 33 is rotated. As the cleaning bucket 33 rotates and moves downward, the baffle plate 332 and the connecting rod 333 move downward synchronously under the action of the spring. After the cleaning bucket 33 is separated from the lower part of the water feeding bucket 32, the baffle plate 332 is located at the bottom of the circumferential groove 331. Since the bottom of the circumferential groove 331 is lower than the lowest point of the circumferential groove 331, and the outer edge of the baffle plate 332 is provided with a rubber sealing ring, the water in the cleaning bucket 33 will not leak when the cleaning bucket 33 is removed from the lower part of the water feeding bucket 32. At this time, it is convenient to pour out the impurities in the cleaning bucket 33. After cleaning, the cleaning bucket 33... 3. During installation, the cleaning bucket 33 rotates and moves upward below the water feeding bucket 32. When the cleaning bucket 33 moves upward, it pushes the connecting rod 333 and the water baffle 332 upward. At this time, the water baffle 332 moves upward continuously. When the water baffle 332 moves upward and resets, the cleaning bucket 33 can place the sediment in the circumferential groove 331. Compared with the existing device, when feeding poultry, the present invention can separate the impurities generated when the poultry collect water after sedimentation in the water, avoiding the pollution of the water quality collected by the poultry by the impurities. Moreover, when cleaning the sedimented impurities, the impurities can be conveniently separated and poured out without pouring out the water.

[0030] The purification section includes multiple drain outlets 311 opening on the outer edge of the central barrel 31, with filter screens 312 installed inside the drain outlets 311. An installation frame 313 is fixedly installed inside the central barrel 31, and an activated carbon plate 314 is detachably installed on the installation frame 313. The drain outlet 311 allows water in the middle bucket 31 to flow into the water hopper 32, and the activated carbon plate 314 can repeatedly purify the water in the middle bucket 31 and the water hopper 32 to ensure the water quality used by poultry. The filter screen 312 can intercept impurities in the water in the water hopper 32 to prevent impurities from flowing back into the middle bucket 31.

[0031] The dispersing branch includes a rotating tube 26 located inside the storage box 1. The rotating tube 26 is located outside the water storage tank 3. Multiple circumferentially arranged dispersing plates 27 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rotating tube 26. A gear 42 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the rotating tube 26. An electric push plate 4 is fixedly installed on the box cover of the storage box 1. A toothed plate 41 that meshes with the gear 42 is fixedly installed on the telescopic end of the electric push plate 4. An arc-shaped plate 43 is fixedly installed on one side of the toothed plate 41. When the electric push plate 4 is opened for reciprocating extension, it simultaneously drives the toothed plate 41 to reciprocate. When the toothed plate 41 moves, it meshes with the gear 42, thereby driving the gear 42 to rotate. When the gear 42 rotates, it drives multiple dispersing plates 27 through the rotating tube 26 to repeatedly stir the feed in the storage box 1. By stirring the feed, it can effectively prevent the feed from sticking and agglomerating when placed in the storage box 1, thus affecting the normal replenishment of feed. Furthermore, the meshing of the gear 42 with the toothed plate 41 will not affect the removal of the box cover from the storage box 1, thereby allowing the feed inside the storage box 1 to be poured out and cleaned.

[0032] The drying section includes multiple air pipes 5 fixedly installed on the outer edge of the storage box 1. A circumferential pipe 51 is installed between the air pipes 5. An air transmission pipe 52 is fixedly installed on the circumferential pipe 51. An air cylinder 53 is fixedly installed at one end of the air transmission pipe 52. A piston rod 54 is slidably installed in the middle of the air cylinder 53. An end component 55 is fixedly installed at one end of the piston rod 54. A roller 56 is rotatably installed in the middle of the end component 55. When the toothed plate 41 moves, it drives the dispersing plate 27 to turn the feed to maintain its dispersion. It can also drive the arc plate 43 to move. When the arc plate 43 moves, it intermittently compresses the piston rod 54 in the air cylinder 53. When the piston rod 54 is compressed, the gas in the air cylinder 53 blows air into the storage box 1 through the air transmission pipe 52, the circumferential pipe 51 and the air pipes 5. By blowing air into the storage box 1, the feed in the storage box 1 can be kept dry, and the feed can be prevented from sticking due to internal moisture during storage. This works in conjunction with the dispersing plate 27 to dry the feed.

[0033] Another object of the present invention is to provide a feeding method for a feeding device used in a poultry farm, comprising the following steps: S1: Equipment placement: The equipment is placed in the poultry house. Then, feed and water are added to the feeding unit and water unit respectively for the poultry to eat on their own. The electric slider is opened to drive the hanging plate 203 to rise and fall, which ultimately raises and lowers the position of the feed hopper 21 to meet the feeding needs of poultry at different heights. S2: Automatic feed replenishment: The automatic replenishment unit allows for the automatic replenishment of feed in the feed hopper 21 after the feed is used up, by utilizing the reduced weight of the feed hopper 21 and its upward movement.

[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed invention.
