[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of large-scale dairy farms, the healthy cultivation of calves has received more and more attention from dairy farming companies. Calves are the foundation for the sustainable and healthy development of dairy farms. How to improve the feeding efficiency of calves and improve their milk production performance after adulthood has become a key issue that the dairy industry urgently needs to solve. At present, in terms of calf breeding, many dairy farms still use the method of artificial timed and quantitative feeding of fresh milk and single-pen feeding of calves to prevent calves from licking each other and spreading diseases. In practice, this method has the disadvantages of being labor-intensive and time-consuming, high feeding costs, and high diarrhea rates, which is not conducive to the renewal and structural adjustment of the herd.

[0003] The acidified milk equipment on the market is mostly barrel-shaped or rectangular, with nipples installed on all four sides. The device is small in size, has a limited feeding capacity, and is expensive. If the number of cattle is large, it cannot meet the needs of use. The cleaning effect is poor and needs to be cleaned manually one by one, which is a lot of work. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, a return port is provided on the surface of the top cover, a return pipe is connected to the surface of the return port, and a return solenoid valve is provided on the surface of the return pipe.

[0007] Preferably, the surface of the stirring barrel is provided with an acid-base port and a feed port, and the other end of the stirring barrel opposite to the acid-base port and the feed port is provided with a temperature sensing port.

[0008] Preferably, a liquid level gauge is provided on the side of the mixing barrel.

[0009] Compared with the related art, the automatic feeding device for acidified milk provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0010] The acidified milk of the utility model is transported by a water pump and circulated in a pipeline. When the calf is willing to eat, it can go to the nipple to eat by itself. The feed intake amount and time are not controlled, and the calf can eat whenever it wants. At the end of the shift, the staff can control the cleaning of the equipment, and the equipment automatically performs CIP cleaning to ensure the hygiene and safety of the device.
