Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of feeding troughs, in particular to a feeding trough for laying hens. Background Art
[0002] Laying hens are usually raised in laying hen cages, and the laying hen trough is installed in front of the laying hen cage. When the laying hen eats, its head and neck extend out of the cage wall to peck at the food in the trough. Therefore, the existing laying hen trough structure is very simple, and only needs to be surrounded by the front, back and bottom three sides.
[0003] However, in the actual laying hen breeding process, laying hens do not eat peacefully. Their eating characteristics are that they pick and choose the feed and hook it back. If there is too much feed, the laying hens will hook the feed outside the trough, causing feed waste. In order to avoid this situation, laying hen farmers feed very little feed each time, but they need to feed the laying hens 4 times a day. This can avoid waste and ensure that the laying hens have enough feed. However, this method will take up a lot of time and energy of laying hen farmers. Especially when laying hens just start to lay eggs, some laying hens often run out of feed, because at this time, the chickens that have already started laying eggs eat more and faster. Before the next feeding, the feed in the trough in front of the laying hens is eaten up, while the laying hens that have not laid eggs eat less feed, and there is still feed in the trough in front of them. In the long run, it will affect the egg production rate of some laying hens. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a feeding trough for laying hens, which solves the problems that the existing feeding troughs for laying hens are inconvenient for feeding, too much feed will cause feed waste, and too little feed will affect the egg laying of laying hens.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the utility model is implemented through the following technical solutions: a feeding trough for laying hens, comprising a trough, wherein a left side wall and a right side wall are inclined on both sides of the trough, a material baffle plate is provided inside the trough, a material opening is provided between the lower end of the material baffle plate and the lower wall of the trough, a feeding trough and a feeding trough are provided between the left side wall, the right side wall and the material baffle plate, a left clamping plate and a right clamping plate are respectively provided on the two side walls at both ends of the material baffle plate, a pair of the left clamping plates are respectively provided with connecting plates, and a pair of the connecting plates are respectively provided with adjustment mechanisms.
[0006] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism includes a fixed plate, a pair of connecting bolts are provided on the fixed plate and a bracket is connected to the side wall, the lower wall surface of one end of the bracket is connected to a vertical plate, the vertical plate is internally movably inserted into the lower end of the vertical plate, the lower end side wall of the vertical plate is connected to a horizontal plate, the horizontal plate is internally movably inserted into one end of the horizontal plate, and one end of the horizontal plate is connected to the connecting plate.
[0007] Preferably, a pair of horizontal fastening bolts and a pair of vertical fastening bolts are screwed onto the horizontal plate and the vertical plate respectively, one end of the pair of horizontal fastening bolts contacts the upper wall surface of the horizontal movable plate, and one end of the pair of vertical fastening bolts contacts the side wall surface of the vertical movable plate.
[0008] Preferably, a pair of second connecting bolts are screwed on the connecting plate, one end of the pair of second connecting bolts passes through the left clamping plate, the baffle plate and the right clamping plate and is screwed with a nut, and the nut is in contact with the right clamping plate.
[0009] Preferably, an upper end of the left side wall is obliquely connected to an inclined plate, and an upper end of the inclined plate is connected to an insert plate.
[0010] Beneficial Effects
[0011] The utility model provides a laying hen feeding trough, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] The laying hen feeding trough can put 1-10 days of feed for laying hens into the feeding trough at one time. The height of the feed opening is between 1.5cm and 2cm. The laying hen's head is inserted into the feeding trough to eat the feed. When the laying hen eats, the feed will flow out from the feed opening. When the thickness of the outflowing feed is higher than the feed opening, the feed will block the feed opening, so that the feed in the feeding trough cannot flow out. The laying hen can only eat the feed in the feeding trough. Since there is less feed in the feeding trough and the space is relatively narrow, the randomness of the laying hen's eating is limited to a certain extent. Therefore, the laying hen cannot pick and choose the feed. When the feed in the feeding trough is reduced to a certain extent, the feed in the feeding trough will flow into the feeding trough from the feed opening, which can achieve a reciprocating feeding effect, stable feeding, and will not have any impact on the laying hen.
[0013] After adding 1-10 days of feed into the feeding trough, it can be refilled at any time during this period, saving manpower and material resources. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0026] Embodiment: When in use, pour the feed into the feeding trough 20, and a small amount of feed will flow into the feeding trough 21 from the feed port 2. When the thickness of the feed in the feeding trough 21 is higher than the feed port 2, it will block the feed port 2 to prevent subsequent feed from entering. When the laying hens eat in the feeding trough 21, the feed decreases. When it decreases to a certain extent, the feed in the feeding trough 21 cannot block the feed port 2, and the feed in the feeding trough 20 will continue to flow into the feeding trough 21 from the feed port 2. Loosen the vertical fastening bolts 13 to adjust the height of the vertical movable plate 12 in the vertical plate 14. Loosen the horizontal fastening bolts 9 to adjust the position of the horizontal movable plate 10 in the horizontal plate 11. Then tighten the vertical fastening bolts 13 and the horizontal fastening bolts 9 respectively to adjust the position of the baffle plate 5.
