Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of animal husbandry, in particular to a chicken house feed adding device with a cleaning function. Background Art

[0002] The modern chicken farming model is intensive breeding, usually using vertical chicken houses for centralized feeding. The chicken houses are usually composed of chicken cages, feed troughs, and drinking troughs. Feed is usually added to the feed troughs manually during feeding, which is labor-intensive for workers. In addition, there is usually uneaten feed left in the feed troughs, which becomes hardened and deteriorates due to the absorption of moisture in the air. If it is not cleaned and mixed with new feed, the quality of the feed will decrease, and there will be a risk of disease after broiler chickens eat it. The feed troughs need to be cleaned before adding feed. However, the number of broilers in large chicken houses is large, and there are relatively many feed troughs that need to be cleaned, which requires a lot of manpower and increases labor costs.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0014] The utility model provides a feed trough cleaning mechanism. After feed is added into the feed adding hopper, the device is started to add feed to the feed trough. As the gantry moves forward, the waste pushing and scraping shovel is driven forward to scoop up the uneaten feed added last time in the feed trough. Since the waste pushing and scraping shovel goes deep into the feed trough and the cross section is the same as that of the feed trough, the remaining feed in the feed trough can be completely scraped away. As the waste pushing and scraping shovel moves forward, the remaining feed enters the waste chip discharge pipe at the rear and falls into the waste chip collection box along the waste chip discharge pipe for centralized treatment. The feed trough is cleaned once before adding feed to ensure the freshness and hygiene of the feed.

[0023] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The feed trough cleaning mechanism 5 includes a waste scraper 501, a waste chip discharge pipe 502 and a waste collection box 503; the waste chip discharge pipe 502 is fixed to the side of the feed adding hopper 4 facing the forward direction, and the waste scraper 501 is fixedly connected to the feed inlet at the upper end of the waste chip discharge pipe 502. The waste scraper 501 penetrates into the feed trough, and the cross-section is consistent with the cross-section of the feed trough. The lower end of the waste chip discharge pipe 502 is connected to the waste collection box 503, and the waste collection box 503 is fixed on the base 1.

[0024] By setting the feed trough cleaning mechanism 5, after adding feed into the feed adding hopper 4, the device is started to add feed to the feed trough, and as the gantry 2 moves forward, it drives the waste scraper 501 forward to scoop up the uneaten feed added last time in the feed trough. Since the waste scraper 501 goes deep into the feed trough and its cross section is the same as that of the feed trough, the remaining feed in the feed trough can be completely shoveled away, and as the waste scraper 501 moves forward, it enters the rear waste chip discharge pipe 502, and falls into the waste chip collection box 503 along the waste chip discharge pipe 502 for centralized treatment. The feed trough is cleaned once before adding feed to ensure the freshness and hygiene of the feed.

[0025] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The front and rear ends of the gantry 2 are fixed with limit bosses 201 above the feed trough cleaning mechanism 5, and a pressure sensor 202 is installed at the front end of the limit boss 201. The pressure sensor 202 is electrically connected to the PLC controller 3. A rotating shaft 203 is arranged on the column of the gantry 2, and a feed adding hopper 4 and a waste chip discharge pipe 502 are welded and fixed at both ends of the rotating shaft 203. An electric cylinder 204 is arranged on the gantry 2 at the bottom of the feed adding hopper 4, and the output end of the electric cylinder 204 is fixed on the bottom surface of the feed adding hopper 4, and the electric cylinder 204 is electrically connected to the PLC controller 3.

[0026] By installing an electric cylinder 204 at the bottom of the feed adding hopper 4, after the feed is added, the pressure sensor 202 touches the column of the feeding cage to generate a pressure feedback signal, and the PLC controller 3 controls the electric cylinder 204 to start, and the electric cylinder 204 lifts the feed adding hopper 4, and the waste scraper 501 connected to it is also lifted from the feed trough. Then the PLC controller 3 controls the driving motor 102 to run in the reverse direction, driving the gantry 2 to return along the ground track. Since the feed adding hopper 4 and the waste scraper 501 have been separated from the feed trough, they will not touch the feed in the feed trough when returning, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic feed addition and automatic return, reducing manpower consumption.

[0027] How to use

[0028] The working principle and use process of the utility model are as follows: feed is added into the feed adding hopper 4, the device is started, the PLC controller 3 controls the driving motor 102 to rotate, and then drives the guide wheel 6 to rotate to make the gantry 2 move forward along the ground track. As the gantry 2 moves forward, it drives the waste scraper 501 to move forward to completely scrape away the remaining feed in the feed trough and enter the waste chip discharge pipe 502 at the rear, and the waste chip falls into the waste collection box 503 along the waste chip discharge pipe 502 for centralized processing. When the gantry 2 runs to the top and touches the breeding cage column, the pressure at the front end of the limiting protrusion 201 The force sensor 202 generates a pressure feedback signal, the PLC controller 3 controls the drive motor 102 to stop, and the electric cylinder 204 starts. The electric cylinder 204 lifts the feed adding hopper 4, and the waste scraper 501 connected to it is also lifted from the feed trough. Then the PLC controller 3 controls the drive motor 102 to run in the reverse direction, driving the gantry 2 to return along the ground track. Since the feed adding hopper 4 and the waste scraper 501 have been separated from the feed trough, they will not touch the feed in the feed trough when returning, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic feed addition and automatic return, reducing manpower consumption.
