[0004] When using it, the pig needs to be pulled to the feeding hopper, then the feed is put into the feeding hopper, and then the pressure plate in the control component is stepped on to control the baffle to add the feed into the feeding trough. The use process still requires a lot of manual participation, which increases the workload of workers. Utility Model Content

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0026] Reference Figure 1-7 The utility model automatic feeding device comprises a feeding hopper 1, a storage hopper 5 is arranged above the feeding hopper 1, a feeding pipe 10 is arranged at the bottom of the storage hopper 5, a floating seat 6 is arranged between the feeding hopper 1 and the feeding hopper 1, a pedal 2 is fixedly connected to the side of the feeding hopper 1, and a telescopic column 3 is arranged at the bottom of the pedal 2.

[0027] When in use, a pit is dug in the pig pen or feeding position, and the feeding hopper 1 and the pedal 2 are buried, so that the pedal 2 is flush with the ground or slightly higher than the ground; generally speaking, the feeding hopper in the pig pen is mostly placed against the wall, and the pigs stand in front of the feeding hopper 1 to start eating, and the pigs just stand on the pedal 2; or if in an open area, the pigs stand around the feeding hopper 1 to eat, and many pigs start eating around the feeding hopper 1. In this case, the pedal 2 is set around the feeding hopper 1 so that the pigs can step on the pedal 2 smoothly;

[0028] When the pig steps on the pedal 2, the feeding hopper 1 and the pedal 2 are driven to descend, and the floating seat 6 is synchronously descended with the feeding hopper 1, so that the floating seat is no longer against the outlet of the feeding pipe 10, and the liquid feed enters the feeding pipe 10 from the storage hopper 5, and then flows out from the feeding pipe 10 to the floating seat 6, and finally flows from the floating seat 6 to the feeding hopper 1, and the pig can eat normally.

[0029] The telescopic column 3 includes a telescopic seat 7, a telescopic rod 8 is arranged inside the telescopic seat 7, the telescopic rod 8 is slidably connected to the telescopic seat 7, the top of the telescopic rod 8 is fixedly connected to the pedal 2, and a spring 9 is arranged on the outside of the telescopic rod 8.

[0030] The telescopic column 3 is installed at the bottom of the pedal board 2 and the feeding hopper 1, and the telescopic seat 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the pit. When the pig steps on the pedal board 2, the pedal board 2 and the feeding hopper 1 squeeze the spring 9 downward, and the telescopic rod 8 slides in the telescopic seat 7 to play a guiding role and prevent the pedal board 2 and the feeding hopper 1 from tilting.

[0031] A discharge pipe 11 is provided on the top of the floating seat 6 . The discharge pipe 11 is slidably installed inside the lower pipe 10 . A discharge port 12 is opened on the side wall of the discharge pipe 11 .

[0032] The outer wall of the discharge pipe 11 fits with the inner wall of the lower feed pipe 10. When the feeding hopper 1 is in the initial position, the feeding hopper 1 pushes up the floating seat 6 under the elastic action of the spring 9, and further drives the discharge pipe 11 to extend into the lower feed pipe 10. At this time, the discharge port 12 is located on the inner side of the lower feed pipe 10, and the discharge port 12 is blocked by the lower feed pipe 10 and cannot discharge the feed. When the feeding hopper 1 descends, the discharge pipe 11 descends with the feeding hopper 1, and the discharge port 12 descends. When the discharge port 12 moves downward to the bottom of the lower feed pipe 10, the discharge port 12 automatically opens, and the feed in the feeding hopper 1 flows out from the discharge port 12.

[0033] The discharge port 12 is located in the middle of the discharge pipe 11 .

[0034] When the feeding hopper 1 descends, it must descend a certain distance to open the discharge port 12, thereby extending the time interval from the start of the pedal 2 to the complete opening of the discharge port 12, and reducing the situation where the discharge port 12 opens immediately due to the pig accidentally stepping on the pedal 2 or stepping on the pedal 2 for a short time when passing by, resulting in feed outflow and waste.

[0035] An electromagnet is embedded and installed inside the feeding tube 10 , and a magnetic attraction plate 13 is provided on the top of the floating seat 6 . The magnetic attraction plate 13 is located directly below the feeding tube 10 .

[0036] Every time the pig steps on the pedal 2, the feed flows into the feeding hopper 1, and the feed inflow speed is greater than the pig's eating speed. In this way, the feed in the feeding hopper 1 becomes more and more. The floating seat 6 is a hollow plastic product and will float on the surface of the feed. The floating seat 6 rises as the feed liquid level increases. When the discharge port 12 is blocked, the electromagnet is started, and the electromagnet attracts the magnetic plate 13 to adsorb and fix the floating seat 6 to the bottom of the discharge pipe 10 to prevent the feed from automatically flowing out again, so as to avoid the situation where the feed keeps flowing out and exceeds the pig's food intake, causing waste.

[0037] The device further comprises a proximity switch 4, which is located directly below the pedal 2 and is electrically connected to the electromagnet.

[0038] The proximity switch is installed on the mounting seat, and the structure of the mounting seat is similar to that of the telescopic seat. When the pedal 2 is stepped on or the feeding hopper 1 drops to the compression limit of the spring 9, the pedal 2 or the bottom of the feeding hopper 1 triggers the proximity switch 4, and the proximity switch 4 turns on the electromagnet. At this time, when the floating seat 6 rises with the increase of feed in the feeding hopper 1 until the discharge port 12 is blocked, the electromagnet attracts the magnetic attraction plate 13, thereby attracting the floating seat 6;

[0039] When the pig finishes eating and leaves the pedal 2, the pedal 2 and the feeding hopper 1 return to their initial positions, the pedal 2 or the bottom of the feeding hopper 1 is away from the proximity switch 4, and the proximity switch 4 turns off the electromagnet. At this time, the floating seat 6, supported by the feeding hopper 1, keeps the discharge port 12 blocked. When the pig eats next time, the floating seat 6 can automatically fall down, so that the feed automatically flows into the feeding hopper 1, and the automatic feeding is carried out in this cycle.

[0040] In the present application, the feeding hopper 1 and the feeding pipe 10 can be directly replaced by the storage pipe 14, and the electromagnet is embedded in the storage pipe 14, and the end of the storage pipe 14 away from the feeding hopper 1 is connected to the feed supply device. This structure is convenient for docking with a modern feed supply system;

[0041] Pedal 2 can be selected as follows Figure 1-2 The long plate-like structure in the middle allows the pig to stand on the pedal 2 as a whole when eating, or it can also be used as shown in the following example. Figure 7 The short board structure shown enables the pig to step on the pedal board 2 with its front legs when eating.

[0042] Working principle: When in use, bury the device in the ground, hollow out the bottom of the pedal 2 and the feeding hopper 1, put feed into the storage hopper 5, and when the pig approaches the feeding hopper 1, it will first step on the pedal 2, so that the pedal 2 and the feeding hopper 1 will drop synchronously. At this time, the pedal 2 or the feeding hopper 1 is away from the proximity switch 4, the electromagnet is in an unactivated state, and the floating seat 6 will drop with the feeding hopper 1, so that the discharge port 12 is opened, and the feed flows from the storage hopper 5 through the feed pipe 10 into the discharge pipe 11, and finally flows into the feeding hopper 1 from the discharge port 12;

[0043] When the pedal 2 is stepped on or the feeding hopper 1 drops to the lowest position, the proximity switch 4 is triggered, and the proximity switch 4 turns on the electromagnet. At this time, the floating seat 6 rises as the feed in the feeding hopper 1 increases. When it rises to the point where the discharge port 12 is blocked, the electromagnet attracts the magnetic plate 13 and attracts the floating seat 6 to the bottom of the discharge pipe 10, keeping the discharge port 12 closed.
