Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of duck farming equipment technology, specifically a traveling feeding device with a conveying and screening function and an externally visible feed box at the end. Background Technology

[0002] In modern large-scale farming, duck egg production has gradually evolved from free-range to cage-raising. Due to the unique feeding habits of ducks (they don't eat powdered feed), broken-down feed particles often appear during feeding, making it difficult for them to eat. Traditional feeding troughs typically employ a three-tiered structure: a storage bin, a sieve box, and a powder box. The storage bin stores dry powdered feed, which falls through a bottom outlet into the sieve box (which has a built-in feed filter to remove clumps or impurities). Finally, the powdered feed falls into the powder box below for the ducks to peck at. However, this system has the following drawbacks: The powder box is fully built-in: The powder box is installed entirely inside the bracket, with the top flush with the bottom of the sieve box, making it impossible to directly observe the amount of powder collected, which causes inconvenience in management; The feed output is not adjustable: the amount of powdered feed cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the age of the ducks or their feeding needs, which can easily lead to feed waste or shortage. Single screening level: Because the feed in the feed pipe may break during transportation, the feed powder produced by the breakage will fall directly into the feeding trough, increasing the filtration burden of the screen in the feeding trough, which will also affect the quality of animal feed intake. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The first technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a traveling feeder with conveying and screening powder and external visualization of the powder box end. By externalizing at least one end of the powder box, the powder collection situation can be directly observed, thereby improving management convenience.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A trolley-type feeding device with conveying and screening powder and an externally visible powder box at the end includes railcars distributed on the left and right sides of a breeding cage and capable of sliding back and forth along the cage. A screening-type feeding component is installed on the side of the railcar facing the breeding cage, sliding synchronously with the railcar. The screening-type feeding component is closer to the breeding cage. The core improvement is that the screening-type feeding component includes a vertical frame and feeding troughs arranged vertically along the vertical frame. Each feeding trough includes a vertically arranged feed box and a screening box installed horizontally at the bottom of the feed box. The feed box has a hollow storage cavity inside, with the top and bottom of the storage cavity being the storage inlet and storage outlet, respectively. A feeding filter is installed inside the screening box, and a bracket is connected to the bottom of the screening box. A powder box that can slide left and right and is connected to the feeding filter is installed inside the bracket. The length of the powder box in the left and right direction is greater than the length of the bracket in the left and right direction. At least one end of the powder box located inside the bracket is exposed outside the bracket.

[0005] By adopting the above solution, since the length of the feed powder box in the feeding trough is greater than the length of the bracket, at least one end of the feed powder box is external, forming a visual observation window. The remaining amount of powder can be directly observed without disassembly (such as observing the height of the powder at the exposed end), avoiding frequent opening of the lid for inspection, thereby improving management efficiency.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of a traveling feeder device that features conveying and screening powder and externally visualized end of the powder box, a limiting frame is rotatably mounted on the left end of the screening box, and a positioning frame is fixedly mounted on the right end of the screening box; wherein the limiting frame and the positioning frame respectively abut against the left and right ends of the powder box, thereby limiting the left and right sliding range of the powder box and preventing it from falling off.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of a traveling feeder device with conveying and screening powder and externally visible powder box ends, both the limiting frame and the positioning frame are L-shaped frames, and the length of the limiting frame in its left and right directions is greater than the length of the fixing frame in its left and right directions, ensuring that the left ends of all powder boxes are exposed outside the bracket, further facilitating management.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of a crane feeding device that has the function of conveying and screening powder and has an externally visible end of the powder box, the outer end of the limiting frame is also connected to a flat handle. The entire limiting frame is always facing downward under the counterweight of the flat handle, which can keep the limiting frame in the normally closed state. When operation is required, the limiting frame can be rotated by lifting the flat handle upward, releasing the resistance to the powder box, thereby making it easy to remove the powder box.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of a crane feeding device that features conveying and screening powder and externally visualized powder box end, the storage chamber is equipped with multiple vertically arranged and spaced uniform distribution plates. When the powder falls, it collides with the uniform distribution plates, breaking up the accumulated powder and promoting uniform distribution.

[0010] The second technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a traveling feeder with conveying and screening powder and external visualization at the end of the powder box. The amount of powder supplied can be flexibly controlled by adjusting the position of the discharge regulating plate according to the age of the duck flock (e.g., ducklings need small amounts and frequent feedings, while adult ducks need a stable supply), so as to reduce waste.

[0011] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: Based on the above scheme, a sliding discharge adjustment plate is installed on the side wall of the material box at the discharge port. The discharge adjustment plate has multiple vertically arranged position adjustment slots, each sliding up and down along a screw fixed to the side wall of the material box. The lowest height of the discharge adjustment plate is lower than or equal to the highest height of the sieve box. Adjusting the height of the discharge adjustment plate controls the effective opening of the discharge port, thereby regulating the amount of powder falling (supply).

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of a traveling feeder device that features conveying and screening powder and externally visualized powder box end, a circular handle is connected to the outside of the top screw. By rotating the handle, the loosening of the top screw can be adjusted, thereby quickly adjusting the position of the discharge adjustment plate.

[0013] The third technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a traveling feeding device with conveying and screening powder and externally visible powder box at the end. Before the feed is conveyed to the screening feeding component, it is conveyed and screened by the conveying and screening device to preliminarily filter the powder generated by the breakage during the conveying process, thereby reducing the breakage rate of the feed after entering the feeding trough.

[0014] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: Based on the above scheme, a feeding and screening device is also installed on the side of the railcar facing the breeding cages, which slides synchronously with the car. The feeding and screening device conveys feed into the screening feeding assembly. The feeding and screening device includes a feed sieve, a feed pipe installed horizontally on top of the feed sieve and connected to the feed sieve, and a powder pipe installed vertically on the bottom of the feed sieve and connected to the feed sieve. A conveying filter screen is installed between the feed sieve and the feed pipe, and a feed inlet is opened at the bottom of the feed pipe directly above the feeding trough. When the feed is conveyed along the feed pipe to the feeding trough, the bottom powder is first pre-screened by the conveying filter screen, and then falls into the feeding trough through the feed inlet, thereby reducing the breakage rate of the feed after entering the feeding trough.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of a traveling feeder device with conveying and screening powder and external visualization at the end of the powder box, the powder screen has an inspection port on the front side, and an inspection plate that can be rotated up and down and can cover the inspection port is rotatably installed at the inspection port to facilitate cleaning of internal residual impurities; the powder screen also has a viewing window located below the inspection port on the front side, which can observe the condition inside the powder screen in real time, such as blockage.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1. Visual monitoring: Since the length of the feed powder box in the feeding trough is greater than the length of the bracket, at least one end of the feed powder box is external, forming a visual observation window. The remaining amount of powder can be directly observed without disassembly (such as observing the height of the powder at the exposed end), avoiding frequent opening of the lid for inspection, thereby improving management efficiency.

[0017] 2. Flexible disassembly and anti-fall-off: The limit frame and positioning frame work together to abut against both ends of the powder box, limiting its sliding range; the counterweight downward design of the straight handle can keep the limit frame in the normally closed state, making operation effortless. When disassembling, you only need to lift the limit frame to pull out the powder box for cleaning or replacement.

[0018] 3. Improved uniformity of material feeding: The material distribution plate in the storage chamber breaks up the accumulated powder, avoids blockage at the discharge port, and extends the service life of the feeding filter screen in the sieve box.

[0019] 4. Precise adjustment of feed output: The opening of the feed outlet can be changed by sliding up and down the feed adjustment plate, and the circular handle can be used for quick adjustment. The amount of powdered feed can be flexibly controlled according to the age of the duck flock (e.g., ducklings need small amounts and frequent feedings, while adult ducks need a stable supply), reducing waste.

[0020] 5. Reduce feed breakage rate: When feed is conveyed to the feeding trough along the feed pipe, the bottom powder is first screened through the conveying filter screen, and then falls into the feeding trough through the feed outlet, thereby reducing the feed breakage rate after entering the feeding trough.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] 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.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a traveling feeder device with a conveying and screening function and an externally visible feed box at the end includes a railcar 2 distributed on the left and right sides of the breeding cage 1 and capable of sliding back and forth along the breeding cage 1. Figure 1Only the track car 2 located to the left of the breeding cage 1 is shown. A sieve-type feeding assembly 3, which slides synchronously with the track car 2 on the side facing the breeding cage 1, is installed. The sieve-type feeding assembly 3 is closer to the breeding cage 1. The core improvement is that the sieve-type feeding assembly 3 includes a vertical frame 31 and feeding troughs 32 arranged vertically along the vertical frame 31. Each feeding trough 32 includes a vertically arranged feed box 321 and a sieve box 322 horizontally installed at the bottom of the feed box 321. The interior of the feed box 321 is... The hollow storage chamber 323 has a storage inlet 324 at the top and a storage outlet 325 at the bottom. A feeding filter 326 is installed inside the sieve box 322. A bracket is connected to the bottom of the sieve box 322, and a powder box 328, which can slide left and right and is vertically connected to the feeding filter 326, is installed inside the bracket. The length of the powder box 328 in its left-right direction is greater than the length of the bracket in its left-right direction. At least one end of the powder box 328 located inside the bracket is exposed outside the bracket. Because the length of the powder box 328 in the feeding trough 32 is greater than the length of the bracket, at least one end of the powder box 328 is external, forming a visual observation window. The remaining powder amount can be directly observed without disassembly (e.g., observing the powder height at the exposed end), avoiding frequent opening of the lid for inspection, thereby improving management efficiency.

[0026] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, a limiting frame 329 is installed on the left end of the screening box 322, which rotates back and forth, and a positioning frame 3210 is fixedly installed on the right end of the screening box 322; wherein the limiting frame 329 and the positioning frame 3210 respectively abut against the left and right ends of the powder box 328, thereby limiting the left and right sliding range of the powder box 328 and preventing it from falling off.

[0027] Continue as Figure 7 , Figure 9 As shown, both the limiting frame 329 and the positioning frame 3210 are L-shaped frames, and the length of the limiting frame 329 in its left and right directions is greater than the length of the fixing frame in its left and right directions, ensuring that the left end of all powder boxes is exposed outside the bracket, which further facilitates management.

[0028] like Figure 7 As shown, the outer end of the limiting frame 329 is also connected to a flat handle 3211. The entire limiting frame 329 is always facing downward under the counterweight of the flat handle 3211, which can keep the limiting frame 329 in the normally closed state. When operation is required, the flat handle 3211 can be lifted upward to rotate the limiting frame 329, release the resistance to the powder box 328, and thus facilitate the removal of the powder box.

[0029] like Figure 10 As shown, the storage chamber 323 is equipped with multiple vertically arranged and spaced uniform material plates 3212. When the powder falls, it collides with the uniform material plates 3212, which disperses the accumulated powder and promotes uniform distribution.

[0030] like Figure 11 As shown, a sliding discharge regulating plate 3213 is installed on the side wall of the material box 321 at the discharge port 45. The discharge regulating plate 3213 has multiple vertically arranged position adjusting grooves 3214, each of which slides up and down along a top screw 3215 fixed to the side wall of the material box 321. The lowest height of the discharge regulating plate 3213 is lower than or equal to the highest height of the screen box 322. Adjusting the height of the discharge regulating plate 3213 controls the effective opening of the discharge port 45, thereby adjusting the amount of powder falling (supply).

[0031] Continue as Figure 11 As shown, a circular handle 3216 is also connected to the outside of the set screw 3215. By rotating the handle, the looseness of the set screw 3215 can be adjusted, thereby quickly adjusting the position of the discharge adjustment plate 3213.

[0032] like Figures 12 to 14 As shown, a feeding and screening device 4 is also installed on the side of the railcar 2 facing the breeding cage 1, which slides synchronously with the car. The feeding and screening device 4 conveys feed into the screening feeding assembly 3. The feeding and screening device 4 includes a feed sieve 41, a feed pipe 42 installed horizontally on the top of the feed sieve 41 and connected to the feed sieve 41, and a powder pipe 43 installed vertically on the bottom of the feed sieve 41 and connected to the feed sieve 41. A conveying filter screen is provided between the feed sieve 41 and the feed pipe 42. The bottom of the feed pipe 42 has a feed inlet 45 located directly above the feeding trough 32. When the feed is conveyed along the feed pipe 42 to the feeding trough 32, the bottom powder is first screened by the conveying filter screen, and then falls into the feeding trough 32 through the feed inlet 45, thereby reducing the breakage rate of the feed after entering the feeding trough 32.

[0033] like Figures 12 to 13 As shown, the front side of the powder screen 41 is provided with an inspection port 46. A maintenance plate 47 that can be rotated up and down and can cover the inspection port 46 is rotatably installed at the inspection port 46 to facilitate the cleaning of internal residual impurities. The front side of the powder screen 41 is also provided with a viewing window 48 located below the inspection port 46, which can observe the condition inside the powder screen 41 in real time, such as blockage.

[0034] Working principle of the invention: During feeding, as feed is conveyed along the feed pipe 42 to the feeding trough 32, the bottom feed powder is first preliminarily screened through the conveying filter screen, and then falls into the feeding trough 32 through the feed inlet 45, thereby reducing the feed breakage rate after entering the feeding trough 32. Subsequently, the feed falls into the feed inlet 45, and after entering the storage chamber 323, it falls from the discharge outlet 45 into the sieve box 322. The feed powder in the sieve box 322 will fall into the powder box through the feeding filter screen 326, thereby achieving the separation of feed and feed powder, making it convenient for the laying ducks to eat. Until the feed fills the storage chamber 323, when the laying ducks are eating, since the storage chamber 323 is connected to the sieve box 322, as the feed in the sieve box 322 decreases, the feed in the storage chamber 323 will automatically replenish the sieve box 322. After the upper storage chamber 323 is filled, the feed will enter the feeding inlet 3219, and then enter the lower feeding trough 32 through the feeding chamber 3218 and the feeding outlet 3220. Feeding will stop when all feeding troughs 32 are completely filled.

[0035] Because the length of the feed powder box 328 in the feeding trough 32 is greater than the length of the bracket, at least one end of the feed powder box 328 is externally positioned, forming a visual observation window. This allows for direct observation of the remaining feed powder (e.g., observing the height of the exposed powder end) without disassembly, avoiding frequent opening for inspection and thus improving management efficiency. The limiting bracket 329 and the positioning bracket 3210 cooperate to abut against both ends of the feed powder box 328, limiting its sliding range.

[0036] When the feed output needs to be adjusted, according to the age of the ducklings (1 week old), rotate the circular handle 3216 on the outside of the top screw 3215 to drive the feed adjustment plate 3213 (the lowest height of the plate is lower than the highest height of the screen box 3222) to slide down 5cm, reduce the opening of the feed outlet by 45 degrees, reduce the amount of feed fed at one time, and avoid feed waste.

[0037] When the powder box 328 needs to be cleaned, rotate the flat handle 3211 upwards to make the limit bracket 329 rotate and disengage from the left end of the powder box 328, and the powder box 328 can be directly pulled out horizontally (exposed end guides the sliding). The whole process takes less time and is significantly shorter than the disassembly time of traditional fully built-in structures.

[0038] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
