Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of calf feeding, in particular to a quantitative milk supply structure for calf feeding. Background Art

[0002] During the calf rearing process, the calf needs to be fed multiple times in a quantitative manner. The existing milk supply device is provided with a large milk storage tank on the outside and is connected to a feeding head through a pipeline. The amount of food the calf eats depends on the residence time of the feeding head and the eating speed of the calf. The calf is prone to overeating or not eating enough. Therefore, a quantitative milk supply structure for calf feeding is needed to avoid overeating due to gluttony, or not eating enough and malnutrition due to slow eating of the calf. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model provides a quantitative milk supply structure for feeding calves in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is a quantitative milk supply structure for feeding calves, comprising a lower shell body, wherein the lower shell body is mounted with an upper shell body via a connecting frame, a milk box is mounted in the lower shell body, a milk outlet pipe is mounted below the milk box, a ferrule is threadedly mounted in the milk box, and a float is arranged between the bottom of the ferrule and the ground of the milk box.

[0005] Furthermore, the ferrule is composed of a threaded sleeve and a knob. The threaded sleeve is installed on the milk box through threads, and the knob is fixedly installed on the threaded sleeve.

[0006] Furthermore, the knob is provided with an extension ring, and the connecting frame is provided with scale lines for adjusting and displaying the amount of milk in the milk box.

[0007] Furthermore, a milk injection tube is fixedly mounted on the knob, the milk injection tube is a two-section structure, the milk injection tube consists of an upper tube and a lower tube, the upper tube is sleevedly connected to the lower tube, and the lower tube is fixedly mounted on the knob.

[0008] Furthermore, a push rod is coaxially mounted on one end of the float away from the bottom of the milk tank, a contact is arranged on the push rod away from the float, the contact is located in the induction structure, and the induction structure is fixedly mounted on the lower tube.

[0009] Furthermore, the float is a mesh plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the sensing structure is in a sealed state, and a distance is set between the sensing structure and the milk discharge port of the lower tube.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0012] The device restricts the float by the card sleeve, so that the effective volume of the milk box is the part of the milk box below the float. When milk is added to the milk box, the float moves upward due to the buoyancy. When the float contacts the card sleeve, the milk cannot be effectively added to the milk box, thereby realizing the function of quantitative milk addition in the milk box.

[0013] The device uses the extension ring and the scale line to make the eye, the scale line and the extension ring form a straight line, which can accurately display the effective volume of the milk box after adjustment;

[0014] The device can drive the lower tube to rotate when the knob is turned, and can prevent the upper tube from rotating, so that the upper tube is stably installed on the external milk box. In the process of the knob turning down or up, the upper tube and the lower tube are stretched or compressed against each other, thereby adjusting the overall length of the milk injection tube.

[0015] Since the lower tube of the device is fixedly mounted on the knob, the travel of the contact can be guaranteed to be a fixed distance during the rotation of the knob. The sensing structure is used to control the milk feeding state of the upper tube. A sensor is arranged in the sensing structure. When the contact contacts the bottom surface of the sensing structure, the sensing structure opens the switch between the upper tube and the external milk box through an external control device, thereby realizing the function of milk injection. When the contact contacts the top surface of the sensing structure, it represents that the milk inside the milk box has been filled to the set value. The sensing structure closes the switch between the upper tube and the external milk box through the external control device, thereby realizing the function of stopping milk injection.

A float 6 is arranged between the bottom of the ferrule 10 and the ground of the milk box 4. The float 6 is disc-shaped, and its diameter is the same as the inner diameter of the milk box 4. The ferrule 10 restricts the float 6 so that the effective volume of the milk box 4 is the part of the milk box 4 below the float 6. When milk is added to the milk box 4, the float 6 will move upward due to the buoyancy. When the float 6 contacts the ferrule 10, the milk cannot be effectively added to the milk box 4, thereby realizing the function of quantitative milk addition in the milk box 4. The ferrule 10 is composed of a threaded sleeve 101 and a knob 102. The thread of the threaded sleeve 101 is an external thread. The threaded sleeve 101 is threaded Installed on the milk box 4, a knob 102 is fixedly installed on the threaded sleeve 101, the knob 102 is coaxially arranged with the threaded sleeve 101, the knob 102 is disc-shaped, and the circumferential wall of the knob 102 is provided with anti-skid patterns for anti-skid rotation, the knob 102 is located outside the milk box 4, and its diameter is larger than the diameter of the threaded sleeve 101, the threaded sleeve 101 can be conveniently rotated by the knob 102, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the threaded sleeve 101, the knob 102 is provided with an extension ring 103, the extension ring 103 is in the shape of a thin sheet, and the connecting frame 2 is provided with scale lines for adjusting the volume of the milk box 4.

Example 2

[0026] Based on Example 1, in this example, Figure 3 — Figure 7 As shown, a push rod 7 is coaxially mounted on one end of the float 6 away from the bottom surface of the milk tank 4, and a contact 8 is arranged on the push rod 7 away from the float 6. The contact 8 is located in the sensing structure 9, and the push rod 7 is mounted on the sensing structure 9. The push rod 7 can slide freely on the sensing structure 9, and the length of the sensing structure 9 can be stretched and adjusted. The sensing structure 9 is fixedly mounted on the lower tube 111. Since the lower tube 111 is fixedly mounted on the knob 102, the stroke of the contact 8 can be guaranteed to be a fixed distance during the rotation of the knob 102. The sensing structure 9 is used to control the milk feeding state of the upper tube 112. A sensor is arranged in the sensing structure 9. When the contact 8 contacts the bottom surface of the sensing structure 9, the sensing structure 9 opens the switch between the upper tube 112 and the external milk tank through the external control device, and the milk injection function is realized at this time. When the milk injection starts, the external driving device automatically moves to the next calf position, and the milk injection can The feeding structure can be completed before the feeding structure reaches the next calf. When the contact 8 contacts the top surface of the sensing structure 9, it means that the milk in the milk box 4 has been filled to the set value. The sensing structure closes the switch between the upper tube 112 and the external milk box through the external control device, thereby realizing the function of stopping milk injection. Since the milk is injected from the upper end of the float 6, the float 6 is a mesh plate, so that the injected milk can flow from the mesh of the float 6 into the milk box 4. In order to prevent the milk from entering the sensing structure 9, the sensing structure 9 is in a sealed state. A distance is set between the sensing structure 9 and the milk discharge port of the lower tube 111. By using this distance, it can be avoided that when the milk is discharged, due to the change in the area through which the milk flows, when the milk flows out, a siphon effect will be generated in the middle position due to the pressure effect. The set distance can prevent the cowboy from entering the sensing structure 9 under the siphon effect and damaging the sensing structure 9.
