Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drinking water equipment for dairy cows, in particular to a drinking trough for dairy cow breeding. Background Art

[0002] In the process of dairy cow breeding, drinking troughs are important facilities for cows to obtain drinking water. Their performance and use effect directly affect the quality and benefits of dairy cow breeding. Traditional drinking troughs for dairy cow breeding are usually open structures. Although this structure is simple and convenient, open drinking troughs are easily affected by external environmental factors. For example, dust, debris, mosquitoes, etc. are easy to fall into the trough, causing drinking water pollution. In addition, since cows will inevitably bring feed residues, saliva, etc. into the trough during the drinking process, these debris will accumulate in the trough over time, breeding bacteria and algae. The traditional drinking trough cleaning method mainly relies on tool cleaning. This cleaning method is inefficient and labor-intensive, which increases breeding costs and reduces the overall efficiency of breeding production. Utility Model Content

[0017] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2A drinking trough for dairy cattle breeding, comprising a drinking trough body 1, a trough cover 2 rotatably connected to the drinking trough body 1 through a pin shaft 10, a cleaning component 3 arranged in the drinking trough body 1, and a driving component 5 arranged on the drinking trough body 1, wherein the pin shaft 10 is fixedly connected to the trough cover 2, and the pin shaft 10 is rotatably connected to one side of the drinking trough body 1 so that the trough cover 2 can be turned over on the drinking trough body 1, and then the driving component 5 is respectively connected to the trough cover 2 and the cleaning component 3 so that the driving component 5 drives the trough cover 2 to turn over so that when not in use. Cover the drinking trough body 1, and the driving component 5 drives the cleaning component 3 to move along the length direction of the drinking trough body 1 to clean the impurities in the drinking trough body 1. The drinking trough body 1 is provided with a water inlet pipe 12, and the bottom of the drinking trough body 1 is provided with a sewage pipe 13. The water inlet pipe 12 and the sewage pipe 13 are respectively located on both sides of the drinking trough body 1. The water inlet pipe 12 and the sewage pipe 13 are both provided with valves 14. The valve 14 is specifically a solenoid valve, which is used to replenish water to the drinking trough body 1 and remove impurities. The drinking trough body 1 is provided with a liquid level sensor 4.

[0018] The cleaning assembly 3 includes a screw rod 6 rotatably connected to the drinking trough body 1, an L-shaped plate 7 located in the drinking trough body 1, and the horizontal side of the L-shaped plate 7 is in contact with the bottom of the inner groove of the drinking trough body 1 and is provided with a brush, and the vertical side of the L-shaped plate 7 is threadedly matched with the screw rod 6; the driving assembly 5 includes an electric push rod 8 provided on the drinking trough body 1, and a slider 9 horizontally slidingly matched with the drinking trough body 1, the output shaft of the electric push rod 8 is connected to the slider 9, the pin 10 and one end of the screw rod 6 are extended to the outside of the drinking trough body 1 and are connected to a gear 11, and teeth meshing with two gears 11 are provided on both sides of the slider 9; when the output shaft of the electric push rod 8 is extended, the slider 9 is driven to move, and then the two gears 11 are driven to rotate, so as to respectively drive the trough cover 2 connected thereto to flip and the L-shaped plate 7 to move; when the output shaft of the electric push rod 8 is retracted, the slider 9 is driven to move in the opposite direction, and then the two gears 11 are driven to rotate in the opposite direction, so as to respectively drive the trough cover 2 connected thereto to flip in the opposite direction and the L-shaped plate 7 to move in the opposite direction.

[0019] An infrared sensor can be installed on the drinking trough body 1 to realize automatic control of the drinking trough. Specifically, the infrared sensor, the liquid level sensor 4, the electric push rod 8, and the valve 14 are all connected to the PLC controller. When the infrared sensor detects that a cow is approaching, it transmits a signal to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller controls the output shaft of the electric push rod 8 to extend, drive the slider 9 to move, drive the two gears 11 to rotate, and then drive the trough cover 2 to flip, exposing the upper part of the drinking trough body 1, and the screw rod 6 rotates to drive the L-shaped plate 7 to move to one end where the water inlet pipe 12 is provided, and the valve 14 on the water inlet pipe 12 is opened synchronously, and the water inlet pipe 12 connected to the water source is used for the drinking trough. When water is added to the drinking trough body 1, and a certain amount of water is added, the liquid level sensor 4 transmits a signal to the PLC controller to close the valve 14 on the water inlet pipe 12. At this time, the valve 14 at the sewage pipe 13 is closed. After the cow finishes drinking water and leaves, the infrared sensor transmits a signal to the PLC controller to control the output shaft of the electric push rod 8 to retract, drive the slider 9 to move in the opposite direction, drive the two gears 11 to rotate in the opposite direction, and then drive the trough cover 2 to flip in the opposite direction to cover the upper part of the drinking trough body 1, and the screw rod 6 rotates in the opposite direction to drive the L-shaped plate 7 to move to the end with the sewage pipe 13, and simultaneously open the valve 14 on the sewage pipe 13 to discharge the remaining water and some impurities together for drinking water next time.

[0020] Working process and working principle: When the drinking trough for dairy cow breeding is working, it is first in the initial state. The trough cover 2 covers the drinking trough body 1 to prevent impurities from entering. The L-shaped plate 7 of the cleaning component 3 is close to one end of the sewage pipe 13, and the water inlet pipe 12 and the sewage pipe 13 valve 14 are closed.

[0021] When the infrared sensor detects that the cow is approaching, it transmits a signal to the PLC controller. The controller controls the output shaft of the electric push rod 8 to extend, pushing the slider 9 to move. The slider 9 drives the pin 10 and the gear 11 at the end of the screw rod 6 to rotate through the teeth. The pin 10 causes the slot cover 2 to flip upward and open. At the same time, the rotation of the screw rod 6 drives the L-shaped plate 7 to move toward one end of the water inlet pipe 12.

[0022] Next, the PLC controller opens the valve 14 on the water inlet pipe 12, and water flows into the drinking trough body 1. The liquid level sensor 4 monitors the water level. When the water level reaches the set height for the first time, the liquid level sensor 4 transmits a signal to the controller, and the controller closes the valve 14 on the water inlet pipe 12 to stop the water inlet. After the cow drinks the water and leaves, the infrared sensor transmits a signal to the controller again, and the controller controls the output shaft of the electric push rod 8 to retract, and the slider 9 moves in the opposite direction, driving the gear 11 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the trough cover 2 flips down and closes. The screw rod 6 rotates in the opposite direction to move the L-shaped plate 7 toward one end of the sewage pipe 13. When the L-shaped plate 7 moves to one end of the sewage pipe 13, the PLC controller opens the valve 14 on the sewage pipe 13, and the remaining water and impurities are discharged. After the sewage is discharged, the valve 14 is closed, and the drinking trough returns to its initial state and waits for the next use. The drinking trough realizes the functions of automatically controlling the opening and closing of the trough cover 2, water inlet, cleaning and sewage discharge through the coordinated work of various components, providing clean drinking water for dairy cows, reducing manual operations, and improving breeding efficiency.
