Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of breeding, and in particular relates to a walking feeder with a probiotics adding device. Background Art
[0002] The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations defines probiotics as "live microorganisms that, when consumed in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit on the host." In the livestock breeding process, probiotics can regulate animal intestinal microorganisms, enhance livestock and poultry immunity, and provide nutrients.
[0003] At present, probiotics have been widely used in poultry farming, but there are still some defects in the probiotic addition link, for example, because the conventional probiotic feeding method is mainly achieved through two ways of adding feed and drinking water. In the process of adding feed, it is necessary to increase the addition step by step, that is, first dissolve the probiotics in water, take a small part of the feed and mix it, and then put it into the feed tank to mix it. Because probiotics will adhere to the feed after adding water, the probiotics in the feed will not be mixed evenly, which affects the promotion of probiotics to poultry. Drinking water addition is to put probiotics into the drinking water line of poultry (such as chicken) in proportion. This method is greatly affected by the feeding water line. At present, the pressure reducing water tank has been replaced by the pressure reducing device. The addition of probiotics to drinking water depends on the dosing device, and the opportunity for poultry to eat probiotics is greatly affected by individual differences. Moreover, since the water in the drinking water line is in a static state in most cases, the components that are not easily soluble in water in the probiotics will precipitate, thereby causing the drinking water line to be blocked or causing the problem of uneven feeding of probiotics. At the same time, feeding by automatic feeders has become the main source of dust in chicken houses. Since the feed components are relatively small, it is easy to cause excessive dust during feeding in poultry houses, inducing respiratory diseases in chickens, resulting in a total dust concentration of about 4.2 mg per cubic meter in the air of the chicken house, and a total suspended particulate matter concentration that is 30 times the national standard limit.

For the electrical and communication fields, it can be a wired connection or a wireless connection. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0025] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a walking feeder with a probiotic adding device, which is particularly suitable for feeding poultry (such as chickens) raised in multi-layer towers while adding probiotics. The walking feeder with a probiotic adding device includes a feeding system and a probiotic delivery system.
[0026] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the feeding system includes a supporting foot 11. A pulley 12 is provided at the bottom of the supporting foot 11. A bracket 13 is provided above the supporting foot 11. A hopper 14 is provided on the bracket 13 and is used as an inlet for adding feed. A movable baffle is provided at the bottom opening of the hopper 14 to control the feed delivery, as well as the delivery speed and quantity. There are two hoppers 14, which are used to deliver feed to the feeding cages 30 on both sides. There are multiple feeding pipes 15. The upper end of each feeding pipe 15 is connected to the bottom opening of the hopper 14, and the lower outlet is suspended above the feed trough of the feeding cage 30.
[0027] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the probiotic delivery system includes a mixing barrel 21. The mixing barrel 21 can be arranged on the support leg 11. The water pump 22 is arranged above the mixing barrel 21 and fixed on the support leg 11. The water pump 22 preferably adopts a peristaltic pump. The lower end of the main pipeline 23 connects the mixing barrel 21 and the water pump 22. The upper end of the main pipeline 23 is arranged on the bracket 13. There are multiple branch pipes 24. The upper end of each branch pipe 24 is connected to the main pipe 23. Each branch pipe 24 is arranged side by side with a feeding pipe 15. The lower end of each branch pipe 24 is provided with a nozzle 25 for spraying probiotic liquid. The nozzle 25 is suspended above the feed trough of the breeding cage 30. When the feed is put into the feed trough using the feeding pipe 15, the probiotic liquid can be sprayed on the feed synchronously.
[0028] In a preferred specific embodiment, two sets of mixing barrels 21 and water pumps 22 can be provided, which are respectively arranged corresponding to the two hoppers 14 and the corresponding feeding pipes 15, so as to improve the efficiency of probiotic delivery and the accuracy of probiotic delivery, and reduce the problem of uneven probiotic delivery caused by insufficient pressure in the main pipe 23 in the branch pipe 24 which is far away from the mixing barrel 21 and located at the end of the main pipe 23.
[0029] like Figure 2-3 As shown, a liquid level scale line 26 is provided on the barrel body of the mixing barrel 21, and the barrel body is made of a transparent material to facilitate observation of the amount of liquid in the mixing barrel 21 from the outside. An agitator 27 is provided in the mixing barrel 21. The agitator 27 is connected to a motor 28 provided on the top of the mixing barrel 21, so that the probiotic liquid in the mixing barrel 21 is stirred under the drive of the motor 28, so that the probiotics and water are fully mixed. An inlet 29 is provided on the mixing barrel 21 for adding water and probiotics.
[0030] Before using the walking feeder with a probiotic adding device provided by the utility model, first pour the feed into the hopper 14, keep the movable baffle set at the bottom opening of the hopper 14 to block the opening; at the same time, according to actual needs, add the required amount of water and probiotics through the inlet 29 of the mixing barrel 21, and start the motor 28 to mix the probiotics evenly. Then, the entire walking feeder with a probiotic adding device is pushed to the feeding cage in the breeding farm, and the movable baffle at the bottom opening of the hopper 14 is opened, so that the feed naturally falls into the trough of the feeding cage 30 through the feeding pipe 15; at the same time, the water pump 22 is turned on to spray the probiotic liquid onto the feed. According to needs, the amount of probiotics can be adjusted by adjusting the concentration of the probiotic liquid, the output power of the water pump 21 to adjust the injection speed of the probiotic liquid, and the opening of the movable baffle at the bottom opening of the hopper 14 to adjust the feed delivery speed, so as to feed an appropriate amount of probiotics according to the different growth needs of poultry.
[0031] In summary, it can be seen that the walking feeder with a probiotics adding device provided by the utility model can sprinkle the bacterial liquid containing probiotics on the feed just put in while putting feed into the feed trough of the feeding cage, thereby avoiding the problem of uneven mixing of probiotics and feed caused by the step-by-step amplification of probiotics in the existing method of putting probiotics in feed; it also avoids the problem that the opportunity of poultry to eat probiotics is greatly affected by individual differences and the resulting blockage of the water diversion pipeline and uneven feeding of probiotics in the existing method of adding probiotics through drinking water. Therefore, the walking feeder with a probiotics adding device provided by the utility model has high operating efficiency, low cost and strong practicality.
[0032] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. For those skilled in the art, the utility model may have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
