Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of animal husbandry and breeding equipment, in particular to a relay hopper for animal husbandry and breeding. Background Art

[0002] Livestock relay hoppers are a type of equipment used in livestock and poultry breeding sites. Their main function is to transfer feed from a storage location to a feeding area for the animals to eat. This type of equipment usually consists of one or more hoppers that move along a certain track or conveyor line to deliver the feed to where it is needed. This design ensures that the feed can be evenly distributed to each feeding station over a longer distance, improving feeding efficiency and reducing the workload of manual feeding.

[0003] The working principle of the livestock relay hopper is usually to move the hopper along a fixed track or conveyor line through an electric or pneumatic drive device, and take the feed from the storage warehouse or silo and then transport it to the feeding station. Some modern livestock relay hoppers may also be equipped with an automated control system, which can feed quantitatively and regularly according to the feeding needs of the animals, improving the scientificity and efficiency of feeding.

[0004] However, the current relay hoppers cannot be turned in direction very well, so most of them can only transport or collect in the current direction. Therefore, a device that can freely adjust the transportation or collection of materials is needed to solve the above problem. Utility Model Content

[0027] The exemplary embodiments, features and aspects of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals in the accompanying drawings represent elements with the same or similar functions. Although various aspects of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale unless otherwise specified.

[0028] The utility model provides a relay hopper for animal husbandry, such as Figure 1-5As shown, it comprises a relay removable cover 2, a first hopper 1 and a second hopper 3, wherein the relay removable cover 2 is arranged above the first hopper 1, and the second hopper 3 is arranged below the first hopper 1.

[0029] The first material pipe connector 5 is provided on both sides of the first hopper 1, and an observation port 4 is provided on the side wall of the first hopper 1, so as to check whether there are other impurities in the material or whether the inside of the machine is in normal working condition through the observation port 4, thereby extending the service life of the machine. A blanking plate hole is provided on the side wall of the lower end of the first hopper 1, and the blanking plate 7 is movably connected to the blanking plate hole of the first hopper 1, and the lower end of the first hopper 1 is tightly connected to the second hopper 3 through a universal adapter.

[0030] The directions of the first hopper 1 and the second hopper 3 are adjusted by a universal adapter to meet the needs of multi-directional transportation and collection. The universal adapter includes a first connecting plate 9, a second connecting plate 10 and an adapter. The first surface of the first connecting plate 9 is tightly connected to the lower end of the first hopper 1, the second surface of the first connecting plate 9 is connected to the first surface of the second connecting plate 10 through the adapter, and the second surface of the second connecting plate 10 is connected to the upper end of the second hopper 3.

[0031] The first end of the second hopper 3 is connected to the second surface of the second connecting plate 10 , the two sides of the second end of the second hopper 3 are respectively connected to the second material pipe connector 6 , and the second end of the second hopper 3 is provided with a maintenance door 8 , which is tightly connected to the second end of the second hopper 3 .

[0032] The first hopper 1 is in communication with the universal adapter, and the universal adapter is in communication with the second hopper 3 .

[0033] A slide rail is provided on the inner wall of the lower end of the first hopper 1, and the blanking plate 7 is slidably connected to the blanking plate hole of the first hopper 1 through the slide rail, so that the blanking plate 7 is prevented from being displaced from its original position due to the gravity of the material above, thereby ensuring the monitoring of material transmission.

[0034] The adapter is a bolt, and the first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10 are both provided with positioning holes 11 for connecting with the bolts. When it is necessary to adjust the transport direction of the second hopper 3, the bolts are removed, and then the second connecting plate 10 is rotated to adjust the position of the second hopper 3 under the second connecting plate 10, thereby adjusting the transport direction. At the same time, the direction of the first connecting plate 9 can be rotated to adjust the collection direction of the first hopper 1 (i.e., the feed port). After adjusting to the required direction, the bolts are tightly connected to the positioning holes 11 of the first connecting plate 9 or the second connecting plate 10 again. After the above-mentioned rotation process is completed, the positions of the first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10 need to be adjusted so that the centers of the positioning holes 11 of the first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10 are on the same axis, thereby meeting the transportation or collection of materials in multiple directions.

[0035] The maintenance door 8 is tightly connected to the second end of the second hopper 3 via a lock, so that the maintenance door 8 can be easily separated from or tightly matched with the second hopper 3 .

[0036] A threaded pushing device is provided inside the first material pipe connector 5, and the output end of the threaded pushing device is inside the first material hopper 1. A threaded extraction device is provided inside the second material pipe connector 6, and the input end of the threaded extraction device is inside the second material hopper 3.

[0037] The threaded pushing device and the threaded extraction device have the same structure, both including a threaded rod structure and a driving motor, but the motor rotation directions of the threaded pushing device and the threaded extraction device are opposite, so that the material can be pushed into the interior of the first hopper 1 through the threaded pushing device, and then transferred to the interior of the second hopper 3 after passing through the interior of the first hopper 1, and then transmitted from the second hopper 3 to the corresponding area through the threaded extraction device inside the second hopper 3.

[0038] The first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10 are both hollow plates. The lower side of the discharge port of the first hopper 1 is aligned with the hollow parts of the first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10, and the upper side of the feed port of the second hopper 3 is aligned with the hollow parts of the first connecting plate 9 and the second connecting plate 10.

[0039] The first pipe connector 5 and the second pipe connector 6 are both replaceable pipe connectors, and the pipes can be freely matched according to actual conditions during use.

[0040] The embodiments described above are only descriptions of the preferred implementation modes of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the protection scope determined by the claims of the present invention.
