[0082] Furthermore, the feeding device further comprises a sealing structure 200 detachably disposed on the housing 100 , and the sealing structure 200 can be sealedly connected to the inlet 120 .
[0083] In general, when the feeding device is in use, different animal foods can be stored separately by utilizing the multiple storage chambers 110 in the shell 100. By storing the animal foods separately in different storage chambers 110, mutual influence between different types of animal foods is avoided, thereby ensuring the quality of the animal foods.
[0084] Furthermore, each storage chamber 110 is provided with a corresponding grain discharging mechanism 300, and the grain discharging mechanism 300 is electrically connected to the control unit. The control unit can more accurately control the movement state of each grain discharging mechanism 300, thereby achieving the effect of quantitatively discharging animal food.
[0085] Furthermore, the control unit can also be used to control each food discharging mechanism 300 to simultaneously output the animal food in each storage chamber 110, so that different animal food can be mixed after being output, thereby improving the richness of the animal food.
[0086] The diet includes solid food or liquid beverage. Designers can adjust the specific ingredients of the diet according to the needs of use, and no specific restrictions are made here.

[0087] In addition, a sealing structure 200 is provided at the inlet 120 of the storage chamber 110. The sealing structure 200 can seal the inlet 120, thereby preventing the animal food from being exposed to the air for a long time, thereby improving the preservation effect and shelf life of the animal food.
[0088] In a feasible embodiment of the present invention, an isolation structure is provided in the inner cavity of the housing 100 , and the inner cavity of the housing 100 is divided into at least two storage chambers 110 by the isolation structure.
[0089] By utilizing the isolation structure, the inner cavity of the shell 100 can be divided into a plurality of mutually isolated storage chambers 110, so that different animal foods can be stored in each storage chamber 110, thereby avoiding mutual influence between different animal foods and improving the preservation quality of the animal foods.
[0090] Specifically, the isolation structure includes at least one isolation member, which is disposed in the inner cavity of the housing 100 and divides the inner cavity of the housing 100 into at least two storage chambers 110 .
[0091] Preferably, the partition is a partition, which is vertically inserted into the inner cavity of the housing 100. The inner cavity of the housing 100 can be divided into different storage chambers 110 by the partition.
[0092] Designers can adjust the number of storage chambers 110 according to usage requirements, such as two, three or more, and there is no specific limitation here.
[0093] In another feasible implementation of the present utility model, as Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiment, the feeding device comprises at least two grain cylinders, each of which is connected to form a housing 100 .
[0094] Designers can adjust the connection method of each grain barrel according to usage needs, such as gluing the grain barrels together, or connecting the grain barrels by snapping, or connecting the grain barrels through connectors, or integrating the grain barrels, and no specific restrictions are made here.
[0095] In the implementation mode of the present utility model, Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the sealing structure 200 includes a sealing cover 210 .
[0096] By arranging the sealing cover 210 on the inlet 120, the sealing cover 210 can be used to isolate the air, thereby preventing the animal grains in the storage chamber 110 from being in contact with the air for a long time, thereby improving the preservation effect of the animal grains.
[0097] In a specific embodiment, the sealing cover 210 is provided with one, through which each inlet 120 can be sealed.
[0098] In another specific embodiment, the sealing cover 210 is provided with at least two sealing covers 210 , and the sealing covers 210 are provided corresponding to the inlets 120 , and the sealing covers 210 are sealedly connected to the corresponding inlets 120 .
[0099] By providing a plurality of sealing covers 210 , each sealing cover 210 can independently seal a corresponding inlet 120 , thereby avoiding interference with other inlets 120 , and providing better convenience in use.
[0100] In the embodiment of the present invention, a sealing portion is provided on the sealing cover 210 and / or the inlet 120. When the sealing cover 210 and the inlet 120 are in a docking state, the sealing cover 210 and the inlet 120 are sealed to each other through the sealing portion.
[0101] Specifically, Fig.12 In the illustrated embodiment, the sealing portion includes at least one sealing ridge 220 disposed around an outer sidewall of the sealing cover 210 and / or an inner sidewall of the inlet 120 .
[0102] Preferably, a sealing ridge 220 is provided on the outer wall of the sealing cover 210 and the inner wall of the inlet 120, wherein the sealing ridge 220 on the outer wall of the sealing cover 210 is a first sealing ridge, and the sealing ridge 220 on the inner wall of the inlet 120 is a second sealing ridge.
[0103] When the sealing cover 210 and the inlet 120 are in a docking state, the first sealing convex edge on the outer wall of the sealing cover 210 abuts against the second sealing convex edge on the inner wall of the inlet 120 to achieve a sealing effect.
[0104] Furthermore, a plurality of first sealing ridges may be arranged at intervals on the outer wall of the sealing cover 210, and a plurality of second sealing ridges may also be arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the inlet 120. The sealing reliability is improved by matching the plurality of first sealing ridges with the plurality of second sealing ridges.
[0105] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the grain discharging mechanism 300 includes a grain discharging impeller 320 rotatably connected to the housing 100 . At least one grain discharging cavity 323 is disposed around the grain discharging impeller 320 . The grain discharging cavity 323 is controllably connected to the outlet 130 .
[0106] Further, such as Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 In the illustrated embodiment, the grain discharge mechanism 300 includes a rotating member 310 disposed on the shell 100 and a lower grain impeller 320 disposed on the rotating member 310 . The lower grain impeller 320 is disposed on the outer side of the shell 100 . At least one grain discharge cavity 323 is arranged around the lower grain impeller 320 . The grain discharge cavity 323 is controllably connected to the outlet 130 .
[0107] By setting a rotating member 310 on the shell 100 and connecting the rotating member 310 to the driving device 800 in a transmission manner, the driving device 800 can drive the lower grain impeller 320 and the grain outlet cavity 323 on the lower grain impeller 320 to rotate, so that the grain outlet cavity 323 can be controllably connected to the outlet 130.
[0108] Preferably, the rotating member 310 is a rotating shaft, which is rotatably mounted on the housing 100. Of course, designers can adjust the specific structure of the rotating member 310 according to usage requirements, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0109] Furthermore, along the height direction, the grain outlet cavity 323 has a first opening and a second opening opposite to each other. The grain outlet cavity 323 can be connected to the outlet 130 through the first opening, and the second opening of the grain outlet cavity 323 can be used to output animal food.
[0110] When the grain discharging cavity 323 is connected to the outlet 130 , the animal grain in the storage chamber 110 can fall into the grain discharging cavity 323 along the outlet 130 , which has a better feeding efficiency.
[0111] In an embodiment of the present invention, the grain discharging mechanism includes a protective shell 330 , which is connected to the housing 100 and can be covered on the grain discharging impeller 320 .
[0112] Further, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the grain discharge mechanism 300 includes a rotating part 310, a lower grain impeller 320 and a protective shell 330. The lower grain impeller 320 is provided with at least one grain discharge cavity 323. The protective shell 330 is connected to the shell 100 and covers the lower grain impeller 320. The protective shell 330 is provided with a grain discharge channel 331. The grain discharge cavity 323 controllably connects the outlet 130 with the grain discharge channel 331.
[0113] By arranging the protective shell 330 on the lower grain impeller 320, the protective shell 330 can play a protective role and prevent the lower grain impeller 320 from being exposed, thereby improving the aesthetics of the feeding device.
[0114] In addition, a grain outlet channel 331 is also provided on the protective shell 330. When the second opening of the grain outlet cavity 323 rotates to the entrance of the grain outlet channel 331, the animal food in the grain outlet cavity 323 can be input into the grain outlet channel 331 under the action of gravity, and the animal food is guided to the target position through the grain outlet channel 331.
[0115] Designers can adjust the specific structure of the grain outlet channel 331 according to usage requirements, for example, setting the grain outlet channel 331 to a trough structure or a tube structure, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.
[0116] In one embodiment of the present invention, the grain discharge impeller 320 includes a plurality of pushers 321 , which are arranged in a ring at intervals and connected to the rotating member 310 , and a grain discharge cavity 323 is formed between adjacent pushers 321 .
[0117] Specifically, the push member 321 is a push block, which is arranged in a fan shape. In addition, by directly arranging a plurality of push blocks on the rotating member 310 , the gaps between adjacent push blocks can form the grain discharge chamber 323 .
[0118] Designers can adjust the specific structure of the push block according to usage requirements, such as setting the push block to a solid structure or a hollow structure, etc., and no specific restrictions are made here.
[0119] In order to prevent the animal food from getting stuck in the gap between the pushing block and the protective shell 330, the bottom and the outer wall of the pushing block are arranged close to the inner wall of the protective shell 330 to reduce the gap.
[0120] When the pushing members 310 rotate, the pushing members 321 can push the animal grains in the grain discharging cavity 323 to move, and finally transport the animal grains to the entrance of the grain discharging passage 331 .
[0121] In another embodiment of the present invention, Fig.10 In the illustrated embodiment, the grain discharge impeller 320 further includes a pushing body 322 and a plurality of pushing members 321 . The plurality of pushing members 321 are arranged on the pushing body 322 in an interval ring manner. The pushing body 322 is detachably connected to the rotating member 310 , and a grain discharge cavity 323 is formed between adjacent pushing members 321 .

In addition, a mounting chamber 170 connected to the storage chamber 110 is also provided in the housing 100, and a grain discharging mechanism 300 is disposed in the mounting chamber 170. The storage chamber 110 and the lower grain port 140 can be controllably connected through the grain discharging mechanism 300, so that the animal food in the storage chamber 110 can be discharged from the lower grain port 140 to feed the animal.
[0161] The grain discharging mechanism 300 in the prior art is generally encapsulated in the outer shell of the feeder. When the grain discharging mechanism 300 is to be repaired, the entire feeder needs to be disassembled, which significantly increases the repair steps of the grain discharging mechanism 300 and reduces the repair efficiency.
[0162] In order to solve the above problems, the present application connects the grain discharging mechanism 300 to the housing 100 in a detachable manner, so that when the grain discharging mechanism 300 is installed, the grain discharging mechanism 300 can be inserted from the storage chamber 110 into the installation chamber 170 and connected to the housing 100, so as to quickly complete the installation operation. Conversely, when the grain discharging mechanism 300 needs to be repaired, the grain discharging mechanism 300 can be removed through the storage chamber 110, and then the grain discharging mechanism 300 can be repaired.
[0163] Since animal food needs to be placed in the storage chamber 110, an inlet 120 is provided on the storage chamber 110. The application forms an installation passage for the food discharging mechanism 300 to be installed and repaired inside the housing 100 by cooperating with the inlet 120, the storage chamber 110 and the installation chamber 170, so that the food discharging mechanism 300 can be quickly installed and repaired by means of the installation passage, so that the installation and inspection operation of the food discharging mechanism 300 will not be restricted by the feeding device, so that the food discharging mechanism 300 can be installed or disassembled without disassembling the entire feeding device, which significantly reduces the repair steps of the food discharging mechanism 300 and improves the repair efficiency.

[0169] Specifically, Figure 8 In the embodiment shown, at least one grain outlet cavity 323 is provided on the impeller 320 for lowering grain, and the grain outlet cavity 323 is controllably connected to the outlet 130 and the lower grain outlet 140. The number of grain outlet cavities 323 can be adjusted by the designer according to the use requirements, and no specific limitation is made here. Preferably, a plurality of grain outlet cavities 323 are provided, and animal grain can be transported sequentially through the plurality of grain outlet cavities 323, so as to facilitate the control of the output amount of animal grain.
[0170] By covering the connecting port 150 with the mounting member 350, the storage chamber 110 and the installation chamber 170 can be separated by the mounting member 350. In addition, the mounting member 350 is also provided with an outlet 130, and the storage chamber 110 and the installation chamber 170 can be connected by the outlet 130, so that the animal food in the storage chamber 110 can fall into the installation chamber 170, and then the animal food can be output from the food outlet 140 by the food outlet impeller 320 to feed the animal.
[0171] In the implementation mode of the present utility model, Fig.14 and Fig.16 In the illustrated embodiment, the mounting member 350 includes an impeller cover 351 . The impeller cover 351 is disposed on the communication port 150 and is detachably connected to the housing 100 .
[0172] By connecting the impeller cover 351 to the housing 100 , displacement of the impeller cover 351 during the rotation of the lower grain impeller 320 is avoided, thereby improving the installation stability of the impeller cover 351 .
[0173] Specifically, the shape of the impeller cover 351 is arranged corresponding to the communication port 150. Designers can adjust the specific structure of the impeller cover 351 according to the use requirements, and no specific limitation is made here.
[0174] For example, when the communication opening 150 is circular, the impeller cover 351 is correspondingly configured to be circular, so that the impeller cover 351 can be better covered on the communication opening 150 to play a separating role.
[0175] In a feasible embodiment of the present utility model, if Fig.14 , Fig.16 and Fig. 20 In the embodiment shown, a connection structure is provided between the impeller cover 351 and the housing 100.

The block 361 is provided on the impeller cover 351, and the block 361 can slide into the second slot section 3622 along the first slot section 3621, and rotate along the first rotation direction to be locked in the second slot section 3622.
[0178] Designers can adjust the specific positions of the first slot section 3621 and the second slot section 3622 according to usage requirements, and no specific restrictions are made here.
[0179] Preferably, the first slot section 3621 and the second slot section 3622 may be arranged vertically or approximately vertically, so that the impeller cover 351 can drive the block 361 to press down into the first slot section 3621 and lock the block 361 in the second slot section 3622 by rotation.
[0180] Furthermore, the first rotation direction is set in the same direction as the rotation direction of the lower grain impeller 320. By setting the first rotation direction in the same direction as the rotation direction of the lower grain impeller 320, the rotational force acting on the impeller cover 351 when the lower grain impeller 320 rotates can make the impeller cover 351 have a movement trend toward the locking direction, avoiding the impeller cover 351 and the housing 100 from being unlocked, so that the impeller cover 351 can be better fixed in the housing 100.
[0181] When the impeller cover 351 needs to be removed, the operator can rotate the impeller cover 351 in the opposite direction of the first rotation direction to release the lock between the impeller cover 351 and the casing 100. At this time, the impeller cover 351 and the lower grain impeller 320 can be taken out from the installation chamber 170 for maintenance.

[0204] Furthermore, by providing a driving control module on one side of the sleeve cam 500, the driving control module can be used to control the rotational stroke of the driving device 800, and further control the rotational stroke of the grain lowering impeller 320, so as to facilitate quantitative transportation of animal grains.
