Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of animal husbandry equipment, and specifically relates to a feeding trolley for cattle and sheep that can accurately feed. Background Art
[0002] Against the background of the continuous development of the modern cattle and sheep breeding industry, the scale of breeding is expanding, and scientific and efficient breeding methods have become the goal pursued by the industry, among which precise feeding is the key link.
[0003] The traditional feeding method of cattle and sheep mostly relies on manual feeding. On the one hand, it is difficult to ensure the accuracy of the feeding amount each time. When the breeders operate, due to the lack of precise measuring tools and standardized operating procedures, the feeding amount is prone to large fluctuations. Either overfeeding leads to feed waste and increased breeding costs; or insufficient feeding cannot meet the nutrition required for the growth of cattle and sheep, affecting their growth and development, health status and ultimate breeding benefits. On the other hand, manual feeding is inefficient. As the scale of breeding continues to expand, a large amount of manpower is required, and the feeding speed is slow, which makes it difficult to meet the needs of concentrated feeding of cattle and sheep in large-scale breeding, and also increases labor costs and management difficulties.
[0004] Although some automated feeding equipment in the prior art has reduced the intensity of manual labor to a certain extent, it still has obvious defects in accurate feeding. Some equipment adopts a simple timed and quantitative feeding mode. However, the food intake of cattle and sheep varies greatly due to factors such as breed, age, weight, growth stage and health status. The fixed feeding amount cannot adapt to these individual differences and dynamic changes, resulting in poor feeding effect. Some equipment lacks precise control over the feed delivery process. For example, the feeding amount cannot be adjusted in time according to the actual feeding situation of cattle and sheep, or the unreasonable mechanical structure design during the delivery process causes feed spillage, accumulation and other problems, which further affects the accuracy of feeding and feed utilization. In view of this, the present utility model is specially proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a cattle and sheep feeding trolley capable of accurately feeding which can overcome the above problems or at least partially solve the above problems.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a feeding cart for cattle and sheep that can be accurately fed, including a mobile cart, and also including: a hopper, fixedly installed on the upper end of the mobile cart, and a discharge port is opened at the lower end of one side of the hopper; a guide plate, fixedly connected to the side wall of the mobile cart near the discharge port; two rows of rotating shafts, which are rotatably connected in the hopper from top to bottom in sequence, and are symmetrically distributed between the two rotating shafts in each row; a paddle, fixedly connected to the rotating shaft at equidistant intervals around the circumference; a driving mechanism for driving the rotating shaft to rotate, installed on one side of the hopper.
[0007] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a pulley, a belt and a motor, the pulley is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft extending out of the hopper, the two pulleys on the same side are connected by a belt, the motor is symmetrically fixedly connected to the side of the hopper close to the pulley through a bracket, and the output ends of the two motors are respectively fixedly connected to one of the pulleys on the same side.
[0008] In order to facilitate the flexible selection of the discharge direction when facing breeding grounds with different layouts or distribution of cattle and sheep, the applicability and versatility of the equipment are enhanced. Furthermore, the discharge port is symmetrically opened on both sides of the hopper, and a blocking component is provided near the discharge port of the hopper.
[0009] Furthermore, the blocking assembly includes a sealing plate, a mounting plate and a first electric telescopic rod. The guide plate is symmetrically provided with sliding grooves on both sides near the discharge port. The sealing plate is slidably connected between the two sliding grooves and slides against the outer wall of the hopper. The mounting plate is fixedly installed on the side wall of the hopper above the sealing plate. The first electric telescopic rod is symmetrically fixedly connected between the guide plate and the mounting plate.
[0010] In order to increase the volume of the hopper, a heightening frame is further installed at the opening at the upper end of the hopper.
[0011] In order to facilitate the flexible control of the height of the heightening frame according to feeding requirements, further, the heightening frame is a telescopic box frame, a circle of fixed plates is fixedly connected to the opening at the upper end of the hopper, a circle of connecting plates is fixedly connected to the upper end of the heightening frame, and a second electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the four corners between the fixed plate and the connecting plate.
[0012] After adopting the above technical scheme, the utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: compared with the existing feeding trolley, it is difficult to accurately control the feeding amount, and it is easy to feed too much and cause feed waste, or feed insufficiently and affect the growth of cattle and sheep. By accurately controlling the number of revolutions and the rotation speed of the rotating shaft, the utility model can accurately feed according to the actual food intake of cattle and sheep. After actual use testing, the feeding amount error can be controlled within a very small range, which greatly reduces the waste of feed. At the same time, it also ensures that cattle and sheep can obtain sufficient and appropriate nutrition, promoting the healthy growth of cattle and sheep.
[0013] The mobile cart's intelligent mobile control and automatic obstacle avoidance functions enable it to move quickly and safely to various feeding points in the farm without the need for manual traction or frequent route adjustments. In addition, the feeding operation can be completed quickly and accurately at each feeding point, greatly improving the overall feeding efficiency and effectively saving the time and energy of the breeders. It is especially suitable for large-scale cattle and sheep farms.
[0014] Precision feeding reduces feed waste and reduces feed cost expenditure. At the same time, the efficient feeding process reduces labor costs. In the long run, it reduces the overall operating costs of the farm and improves breeding efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the utility model but are not used to limit the scope of the utility model.
[0022] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 A feeding cart for cattle and sheep that can be accurately fed includes a mobile cart 1, and also includes: a hopper 2, which is fixedly installed at the upper end of the mobile cart 1, and a discharge port 201 is opened at the lower end of one side of the hopper 2; a guide plate 202, which is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mobile cart 1 near the discharge port 201; two rows of rotating shafts 3, which are rotated and connected in the hopper 2 in sequence from top to bottom, and are symmetrically distributed between the two rotating shafts 3 in each row; a dial plate 301, which is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 3 at equidistant intervals on the circumference; a driving mechanism for driving the rotating shaft 3 to rotate, which is installed on one side of the hopper 2.
[0023] The driving mechanism includes a pulley 302, a belt 303 and a motor 304. The pulley 302 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 3 extending out of the hopper 2. The two pulleys 302 on the same side are connected by the belt 303. The motor 304 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the side of the hopper 2 close to the pulley 302 through a bracket. The output ends of the two motors 304 are respectively fixedly connected to one of the pulleys 302 on the same side.
[0024] Before using the cattle and sheep feeding cart, the breeder must first determine the appropriate feeding amount standard based on the breed, growth stage, weight and other factors of the cattle and sheep, and record it. At the same time, check whether the various parts of the feeding cart are intact, whether the motor 304, the power system of the mobile cart 1, etc. can operate normally, and then pour sufficient feed into the hopper 2.
[0025] Among them, the mobile car 1 is equipped with an intelligent control system, which can be remotely or locally controlled through an operating terminal (such as a control computer in the farm, a mobile phone APP of a breeder, etc.). The breeder inputs a preset feeding route on the operating terminal. The route can be set according to the layout of the cattle and sheep pens in the farm, the distribution of cattle and sheep, etc. The power system of the mobile car 1 can be electrically driven and equipped with a high-performance battery to provide stable power for the movement of the car. During driving, the mobile car 1 is also equipped with sensors (such as ultrasonic sensors, cameras, etc.) that can perceive the surrounding environment in real time. When an obstacle (such as a fence, other equipment, cattle and sheep, etc.) is detected, the sensor can transmit a signal to the intelligent control system, and the system automatically controls the mobile car 1 to slow down or stop, and plans a new driving path to ensure safe driving to each feeding point.
[0026] When the mobile trolley 1 arrives at the designated feeding point, the breeding staff inputs the number of revolutions and speed instructions of the corresponding rotating shaft 3 on the operation terminal according to the feeding amount standard determined in the early stage. The motor 304 starts after receiving the instruction, and its output end drives the pulley 302 connected to it to rotate. Through the transmission of the belt 303, the two rotating shafts 3 on the same side rotate synchronously. Since the paddle plate 301 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 3 at equal distances around the circumference, when the rotating shaft 3 rotates, the paddle plate 301 will paddle the feed in the hopper 2 to the discharge port 201, and guide it through the guide plate 202. To the feeding area, by accurately controlling the number of revolutions and the speed of the rotating shaft 3, the amount of feed flowing out of the discharge port 201 can be accurately controlled to achieve accurate feeding of cattle and sheep. For example, for young cattle and sheep with small appetites, a lower speed and fewer revolutions of the rotating shaft 3 are set. For adult cattle and sheep with large appetites, the speed and number of revolutions are increased accordingly. During the feeding process, if the feeding amount needs to be adjusted, the breeder can modify the rotation parameters of the rotating shaft 3 on the operating terminal at any time, and the motor 304 will respond in real time to adjust the rotation state of the rotating shaft 3.
[0027] Compared with the existing feeding carts, which are difficult to accurately control the feeding amount, and are prone to overfeeding resulting in feed waste, or underfeeding affecting the growth of cattle and sheep, the feeding cart can accurately feed according to the actual food intake of cattle and sheep by accurately controlling the number of revolutions and rotation speed of the rotating shaft 3. After actual use tests, the feeding amount error can be controlled within a very small range, which greatly reduces feed waste. At the same time, it also ensures that cattle and sheep can obtain sufficient and appropriate nutrition, promoting their healthy growth.
[0028] The intelligent mobile control and automatic obstacle avoidance functions of the mobile vehicle 1 enable it to move quickly and safely to various feeding points in the farm without manual traction or frequent route adjustments. In addition, the feeding operation can be completed quickly and accurately at each feeding point, greatly improving the overall feeding efficiency and effectively saving the time and energy of the breeders. It is especially suitable for large-scale cattle and sheep farms.
[0029] Precision feeding reduces feed waste and reduces feed cost expenditure. At the same time, the efficient feeding process reduces labor costs. In the long run, it reduces the overall operating costs of the farm and improves breeding efficiency.
[0030] Example 2: Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 A feeding cart for cattle and sheep capable of accurate feeding is basically the same as Example 1, and furthermore: a discharge port 201 is symmetrically opened on both sides of a hopper 2, and a blocking component is provided at a position of the hopper 2 near the discharge port 201.
[0031] The blocking assembly includes a sealing plate 204, a mounting plate 205 and a first electric telescopic rod 206. The guide plate 202 is symmetrically provided with slide grooves 203 on both sides near the discharge port 201. The sealing plate 204 is slidably connected between the two slide grooves 203 and slides against the outer wall of the hopper 2. The mounting plate 205 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the hopper 2 above the sealing plate 204. The first electric telescopic rod 206 is symmetrically fixedly connected between the guide plate 202 and the mounting plate 205.
[0032] By driving the sealing plate 204 to slide in the slide groove 203 through the first electric telescopic rod 206, the opening and closing degree of the discharge port 201 can be flexibly and accurately controlled. When it is necessary to stop feeding or adjust the feeding amount, the discharge port 201 can be timely and accurately blocked or adjusted to avoid unnecessary spilling or excessive feeding of feed, further improving the accuracy of feeding and reducing feed waste. The discharge ports 201 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the hopper 2 and the blocking components are symmetrically arranged, so that the feeding trolley can achieve the same standard of accurate feeding operation in different directions. When facing breeding grounds or cattle and sheep distribution with different layouts, the discharge direction can be flexibly selected, thereby enhancing the applicability and versatility of the equipment.
[0033] Example 3: Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 , a feeding trolley for cattle and sheep that can be accurately fed, is basically the same as Example 2, and further: a heightening frame 207 is installed at the opening at the upper end of the hopper 2, and the heightening frame 207 directly increases the vertical height of the hopper 2, thereby expanding the internal volume of the hopper 2, so that more feed can be stored in one feeding process, reducing the number of frequent feedings, and improving the working efficiency of the feeding trolley. It is particularly suitable for large-scale cattle and sheep breeding scenes, reducing the labor intensity of breeders, and in the process of feeding into the hopper 2, the higher heightening frame 207 can play a certain blocking role, preventing feed from overflowing from the opening of the hopper 2 due to overfilling or improper operation, keeping the equipment and the surrounding environment clean and tidy, and avoiding feed waste.
[0034] The heightening frame 207 is a telescopic box frame, a circle of fixed plates 208 are fixedly connected to the opening of the upper end of the hopper 2, a circle of connecting plates 209 are fixedly connected to the upper end of the heightening frame 207, and the four corners between the fixed plate 208 and the connecting plate 209 are fixedly connected to the second electric telescopic rod 2010. The telescopic heightening frame 207 can change its own height at will through the extension and contraction of the second electric telescopic rod 2010, so as to flexibly adjust the overall volume of the hopper 2. When the number of cattle and sheep in the breeding farm increases and the growth stage changes, resulting in a substantial increase in the feeding demand, the heightening frame 207 is extended to increase the storage capacity of the hopper 2. In the off-season of breeding or when the feeding demand is small, When the feeding amount is increased, the heightening frame 207 is lengthened to increase the storage capacity of the hopper 2. When the feeding amount is increased, the heightening frame 207 is shortened to avoid wasting space caused by the hopper 2 being too large, so that the equipment can better adapt to the feed storage needs in different breeding scenarios. The telescopic heightening frame 207 can change its own height at will through the extension and retraction of the second electric telescopic rod 2010, so as to flexibly adjust the overall volume of the hopper 2. When the number of cattle and sheep in the farm increases or the growth stage changes, resulting in a substantial increase in the feeding amount demand, the heightening frame 207 is extended to increase the storage capacity of the hopper 2. In the off-season for breeding or when the feeding amount demand is small, the heightening frame 207 is shortened to avoid wasting space caused by the hopper 2 being too large, so that the equipment can better adapt to the feed storage needs in different breeding scenarios.
