Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pigeon feeding technology, specifically to a multi-chamber synchronous feeding machine for caged pigeons. Background Technology
[0002] As a highly efficient special poultry farming industry, traditional cage-raised pigeons are generally fed manually, with feeders carrying feed buckets and feeding each cage individually. This method is extremely labor-intensive and inefficient; a single feeder can spend several hours feeding a large number of pigeons, resulting in a serious waste of human resources and high feeding costs.
[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of manual feeding, automated feeding equipment has begun to be applied in pigeon farming. Currently, there are some track-mounted or trolley-type automatic feeders on the market. These move along tracks above the pigeon cages and use mechanisms such as augers or pulleys to transport feed from the feed bins to the various feeding troughs. However, common single-chamber feed bins are prone to "grading" during long-distance transport due to differences in the physical properties of the feed. Heavier particles sink to the bottom, while lighter powders and small particles float, resulting in a different feed composition at the end of the trough compared to the initial feeding. This leads to uneven nutrient distribution, and many devices lack effective feed mixing functions. After the feed has been left to stand in the bin for a period of time, various components may separate. Even before feeding, the feed cannot be mixed immediately, affecting the comprehensiveness of the pigeons' nutritional intake. Furthermore, the mechanical structure of existing equipment is often quite complex.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, we have made improvements and proposed a multi-chamber synchronous feeding machine for caged pigeons. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: This invention provides a multi-chamber synchronous feeding machine for caged pigeons, comprising a base plate and a top plate. Three storage chambers arranged in a circular array are fixedly connected to the top plate. The bottom surface of each storage chamber is connected to a feeding pipe via a pipe. An auger rod is rotatably connected between the top surface of the feeding pipe and its inner wall. A transmission mechanism is installed between the three auger rods. A mixing chamber is connected to the lower inner side of the feeding pipe via a pipe. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the center of the inner top surface of the mixing chamber. Several stirring plates arranged in a circular array are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod. A discharge port with a valve is provided on the bottom surface of the mixing chamber.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, three support rods arranged in a circular array are fixedly connected between the top surface of the base plate and the bottom surface of the top plate.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the upper part of the outer wall of the storage chamber is provided with an external thread, the storage chamber is connected to a sealing cover by the external thread, and the lower part of the storage chamber is provided with an inverted cone shape.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the transmission mechanism includes a driving bevel gear and three driven bevel gears, each of the driven bevel gears meshing with the driving bevel gear, and one end of the auger rod extending through the feed pipe is coaxially and fixedly connected to the driven bevel gear.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a geared motor is fixedly installed at the center of the top surface of the top plate, and the top end of the rotating rod extending through to the outside of the mixing chamber is coaxially and fixedly connected to the output shaft of the geared motor.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the rotating rod extends through the outer wall of the mixing chamber and is coaxially and fixedly connected to the active bevel gear.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a connecting rod is fixedly connected between the bottom surface of the top plate and the outer wall of the feeding pipe.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a material holding trough is fixedly connected to the center of the top surface of the base plate, and the material holding trough is located directly below the discharge port.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This multi-chamber synchronous feeding machine for caged pigeons, by starting a reduction motor, drives a rotating rod to rotate, which in turn drives a driving bevel gear to rotate. The driving bevel gear then drives three driven bevel gears, which in turn drive an auger rod, thus conveying feed from the storage chamber to the mixing chamber. This achieves synchronous multi-chamber feeding. Simultaneously, the reduction motor drives the rotating rod to rotate, further mixing the feed in the mixing chamber via a stirring plate, enabling immediate mixing of the feed before feeding. This effectively eliminates the component separation caused by feed settling and transportation, allowing different components such as powder and granules to be uniformly mixed again. This ensures that each portion of feed fed into the trough has a consistent and comprehensive nutritional composition, guaranteeing balanced nutrition for the pigeons and contributing to their healthy growth and optimal production potential.
