Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of feeding in breeding farms, in particular to a fluid quantitative feeding device and a system for single-fence feeding in breeding farms. Background Art

[0002] In animal husbandry, calf feeding and management is a very important link, and good feeding management is essential for calf growth and health. The effect of calf feeding directly affects the body structure and lifelong production performance of adult cattle, because the physiological function of calves is in a stage of rapid change during the calf period, and the calf has greater plasticity. The growth and development of calves requires sufficient nutrition, and milk is the best source of nutrition for calves. The traditional milk feeding method mainly relies on manual labor, which is not only inefficient, but also cannot ensure that calves get milk at a fixed time, quantity and temperature. With the development of science and technology, the application of automated breeding equipment in animal husbandry is becoming more and more extensive. Automated breeding can not only save labor, but also make automated management more controllable. While improving feeding efficiency, it can achieve efficient and scientific management methods to avoid the impact of human factors on calf growth.

[0003] In the prior art, some patent applications for automatic calf milk feeding devices have been proposed. For example, the patent application number is CN 209628339U, which discloses an automatic calf feeding device including a milk refrigeration tank, a cleaning liquid barrel, a washing liquid barrel, a delivery pump, a plurality of delivery pipelines, a waste liquid collection barrel, a nipple, and an identification element, a calf island, etc. The sensor identifies the calf information, realizes timed and quantitative feeding, and the feeding device can be cleaned by the cleaning liquid provided by the washing liquid barrel. Automatic feeding is realized to a certain extent, saving human resources.

[0004] However, the automatic feeding device proposed in the above patent application still has some problems in practical application. First, the device is only suitable for lactating calves raised in small groups. However, most ranches, especially large-scale ranches, currently adopt a single-pen feeding mode through facilities such as calf islands or calf cages to reduce the incidence of diseases, with single cows and single cages arranged in parallel. The device is not applicable to these supporting facilities and management modes. At present, the feeding of calves in the single-pen mode depends entirely on manual labor. In addition, more and more dairy farms have begun to raise Jersey cattle, and it is common to see Holstein calves and Jersey calves mixed. There is a difference in height between these two breeds of cattle. The mainstream products on the market only refer to the body size data of Holstein calves, and are not suitable for other breeds of cattle. The device does not take into account the individual differences of calves. For example, when calves of different heights are eating, the nipples of the same height will cause inconvenience to the taller or shorter calves. Secondly, the device does not have a heat preservation structure. The heated milk will lose some heat during transportation. When it reaches the nipple, the temperature may be lower than the temperature suitable for calves to eat, which will cause abdominal discomfort to the calf. The device has no disinfection function. After the calf eats, the nipple usually has some milk left, which is easy to breed bacteria. Repeated use will cause health risks to the calf. Moreover, there is no protective structure. The pipeline will be exposed for a long time and will age or be damaged by the calf's bite. These factors may affect the calf's demand for milk. Therefore, how to design an automatic calf milk feeding device that can adapt to various environmental conditions and can be adjusted according to the individual differences of calves is a technical problem that needs to be solved at present.

[0005] There is no effective solution yet for the problems in the relevant technology that it is not suitable for single-fence feeding mode, the milk is not kept warm and the actual eating temperature is low, feeding is wasted when there are no cows at feeding time, the uniform feeding height makes it inconvenient for calves to eat, there is no automatic disinfection function and bacteria breeds, and no protective measures are taken for the equipment, causing damage, affecting automatic feeding.

[0262] 3) The central control component 1061 activates the driving component 1085 to adjust the height of the corresponding lifting component 1083 according to the height information of the calf, driving the fixing component 1084 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the feeding component 1032 to a position matching the height of the calf;

[0263] 4) The central control element 1061 controls the opening of the corresponding first valve element 1027 to start feeding and record the actual food intake of the calf. When the actual food intake does not meet the feeding standard, the corresponding calf is marked;

[0264] 5) After eating, the staff will check the actual food intake of the calves, check the calves whose eating does not meet the standards, and promptly identify sick and weak calves.

[0265] The technical effects of this embodiment are as follows:

[0266] By setting up a height adjustment unit, not only can feeding be achieved when there are cows, but the height of the feeding unit can also be automatically adjusted for different calves, so that each calf can eat in a more convenient and comfortable posture. This can not only improve feeding efficiency, but also increase the calf's appetite, so that calves can be fed in a quantitative manner, and the actual food intake of calves can be checked in time, and sick and weak calves can be exposed in time, solving the problem of waste caused by no cows for feeding and the problem of inconvenience for calves to eat caused by unified feeding height.
