Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of feed feeding equipment, and in particular relates to a quantitative feed feeding device for pig farming and its usage method. Background Technology
[0002] Pigs have limited digestive and absorptive capacity. Overfeeding beyond their capacity leads to feed waste and increased farming costs. Overfeeding can also cause digestive problems such as bloating and diarrhea, as the pig's digestive system cannot fully digest the feed. Therefore, in pig farming, it is necessary to feed pigs in a targeted and quantitative manner according to their different growth stages to improve feed utilization and prevent digestive problems.
[0003] In small and medium-sized pig farms, feed is usually made into a porridge-like consistency before feeding, which helps improve the pigs' feeding efficiency and digestion. However, there is a lack of specialized equipment to control the amount of feed given. If each portion of feed is weighed separately or dispensed into quantitative containers before feeding, the workload will be significantly increased, affecting the efficiency of the farm.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a quantitative feeding device for pig farming and a method for using it. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The present invention aims to solve the technical problem of quantitative feed feeding in pig farming.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0008] Furthermore, the feed storage silo has a discharge port at the bottom center, which is connected to the downstream pipeline via a flange joint.
[0009] Furthermore, the feed conveying system includes a conveying pump, a suction hose, a delivery hose, a control button, and a lifting handle; one end of the suction hose is connected to the discharge interface via a flange, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the conveying pump, and the outlet of the conveying pump is connected to the inlet of the delivery hose; a control button is provided at the outlet of the delivery hose, and a lifting handle is also provided at the outlet of the delivery hose to control the start and stop of the conveying pump via the control button.
[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the feed storage silo is provided with several support columns.
[0011] Furthermore, a weighing sensor is fixedly connected between the support column and the chassis frame. The weighing sensor monitors the weight of the feed in the feed storage bin in real time by detecting changes in the support load.
[0012] Furthermore, a digital display control instrument is installed on the chassis frame. The digital display control instrument is wired to the weighing sensor via a wire, and a total weight display is integrated on the side of the housing of the digital display control instrument.
[0013] Furthermore, the digital display control instrument is communicatively connected to the feeding weight display, which is installed at the discharge end of the feed conveying system; it is used to display the net weight of the feed discharged in this feeding operation in real time.
[0014] The quantitative feeding method of pig feed quantitative feeding equipment includes the following steps:
[0015] S1: Clear the data displayed on the total weight display, put feed raw materials or pre-made feed into the feed storage bin, start the stirring mechanism in the bin to stir, and observe the total weight of the feed through the total weight display.
[0016] S2: Drive the device to the feeding trough area of the pigsty and reset the weight displayed on the feeding weight display to zero;
[0017] S3: The operator holds the lifting handle and aligns the discharge end of the feeding hose with the feeding tank, operates the control button to start the delivery pump to begin feeding, and observes the increasing amount of feed displayed on the feeding weight display.
[0018] S4: When the feeding weight display shows that the feeding amount has reached the planned weight, operate the control button to stop the delivery pump and complete this round of feeding.
[0019] S5: Reset the data displayed on the feeding weight display to zero again, and proceed with the feeding of the next feeding trough.
[0020] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] The weighing system monitors the total weight of feed in the feed storage bin and the net weight of feed per feeding in real time. The feeding weight display shows the feeding amount in real time, allowing the feeder to accurately control the amount of feed fed each time, reducing the manpower and time required for feeding and improving feeding efficiency.

[0036] Please see Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention is a quantitative feeding device for pig farming, including a mobile chassis assembly 1, a feed storage bin 2 installed on the mobile chassis assembly 1, a feed conveying system 3 connected to the bottom of the feed storage bin 2, and a weighing system 4 for real-time weighing.
[0037] The mobile chassis assembly 1 serves as the overall support and mobile platform for the equipment; it includes a chassis frame 11 and a walking drive unit 12. The chassis frame 11 is welded from high-strength steel pipes, and the front bottom of the chassis frame 11 is equipped with universal wheels 13 with braking function, which facilitates flexible turning and positioning within the pigsty. The walking drive unit 12 is installed at the rear of the chassis frame 11 and includes a drive motor and a transmission shaft. An energy storage system is set on the mobile chassis assembly 1 to supply power to the walking drive unit 12 and other equipment, realizing electric assisted pushing and reducing the labor intensity of operators.
[0038] The feed storage silo 2 is fixedly installed above the chassis frame 11 and is used to hold porridge-like or liquid feed. The feed storage silo 2 has a barrel-shaped structure with a feeding port at the top and a downward-extending cone-shaped bottom, which facilitates feed accumulation and allows the feed in the feed storage silo 2 to be emptied. A crossbeam is provided at the upper feeding port of the feed storage silo 2, and a stirring rod 21 is installed downward in the middle of the crossbeam. The stirring rod 21 is driven by a reduction motor 22 located on the upper part of the crossbeam. The reduction motor 22 rotates at low speed to ensure that the feed is suspended and prevents sedimentation. A discharge port 23 is provided at the center of the bottom of the feed storage silo 2. The discharge port 23 is connected to the downstream pipeline through a flange joint, and the connection is sealed. Several support columns 24 are provided at the bottom of the feed storage silo 2 to support the overall weight of the feed storage silo 2. Preferably, there are three, four, or five support columns 24.
[0039] The feed conveying system 3 is used to extract feed from the feed storage bin 2 and convey it to the feed trough; it includes a conveying pump 31, a suction hose 32, a delivery hose 33, a control button 34, and a lifting handle 35; one end of the suction hose 32 is connected to the discharge port 23 via a flange, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the conveying pump 31. The outlet of the conveying pump 31 is connected to the inlet of the delivery hose 33; the length of the delivery hose 33 is sufficient for the outlet to extend to the feed trough position. The outlet of the delivery hose 33 is equipped with a control button 34, and the outlet of the delivery hose 33 is also equipped with a lifting handle 35. The operator can hold and control the position of the outlet by lifting the handle 35. The start and stop control of the conveying pump 31 can be realized by operating the control button 34, thereby realizing the feeding of feed.
[0040] The weighing system 4 includes a weighing sensor 41, a digital display control instrument 42, a total weight display 43, and a feeding weight display 44; the weighing sensor 41 is installed at the bottom of the feed storage bin 2 and monitors the weight of the feed in the feed storage bin 2 in real time by detecting changes in the supporting load.
[0041] Specifically, the load cell 41 is fixedly connected between the support column 24 and the chassis frame 11; the support column 24 and the load cell 41 together support the feed storage bin 2.
[0042] The digital display control instrument 42 is mounted on the chassis frame 11. The digital display control instrument 42 is wired to the weighing sensor 41 via a wire to collect the weighing signal output by the weighing sensor 41 in real time. After processing the collected data, the digital display control instrument 42 transmits the weight information of the feed in the feed storage bin 2 to the total weight display 43 integrated on the side of the housing of the digital display control instrument 42 for display.
[0043] Meanwhile, the digital display control instrument 42 is connected to the feeding weight display 44 installed at the discharge end of the feed conveying system 3. The feeding weight display 44 is used to display the net weight of the feed discharged in this feeding operation in real time, so that the operator can intuitively grasp the feeding amount during the feeding process.
[0044] The quantitative feeding method of pig feed quantitative feeding equipment includes the following steps:
[0045] S1: The feeder first resets the data displayed on the total weight display 43 to zero, and then puts clean water, pelleted feed, corn chips and other raw materials into the feed storage bin 2, or directly injects pre-made porridge-like feed; the stirring mechanism 21 in the bin is started to stir, so that the feed in the feed storage bin 2 is mixed evenly and kept in a suspended paste state; at this time, the total weight of the feed in the feed storage bin 2 is observed in real time through the total weight display 43.
[0046] S2: After the feed is ready, drive the equipment to the feeding trough area of the pigsty; before starting to feed, reset the weight displayed on the feeding weight display 44 to zero.
[0047] S3: The feeder holds the lifting handle 35, aligns the discharge end of the feed hose 33 with the feeding trough, and presses the control button 34 to start the delivery pump 31; the feed is then pumped to the feeding trough through the suction hose 32 and the feed hose 33; during this process, the feeding weight display 44 synchronously increases and displays the net weight of the feed discharged by the back-spinning feeding operation.
[0048] S4: When the displayed feed amount reaches the planned weight, release the control button 34, and the conveying pump 31 will stop working, thus completing the quantitative feeding of this round of feed.
[0049] S5: Then reset the data on the feeding weight display 44 to zero again, and you can proceed with the feeding of the next feeding tank.
[0050] The weighing system 4 is linked with the feed conveying system 3 and integrated on the mobile chassis assembly 1 and the feed storage bin 2, realizing a simple and intuitive operation mode of feeding while moving and stopping when the data is displayed.
