Detailed implementation manners
[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0023] Refer to Figure 1 - Figure 2 As shown, it includes a feed storage box 1. A feeding port 5 is provided at the top of the feed storage box 1. A feeding cover 6 is installed on the feeding port 5 through a rotary connector 7. At the bottom of the front side of the feed storage box 1, there is connected a feeding trough 2 for feeding. The inner trough of the feeding trough 2 is inclined. A number of partition boards 3 are equidistantly arranged in the feeding trough 2. The feeding trough 2 is divided into several feeding positions 4 by the partition boards 3. At the top inside the feed storage box 1, there is provided a feed storage cavity 8. A vibration equalization structure is provided inside the feed storage cavity 8. An equal-quantity discharging structure is provided at the bottom of the feed storage cavity 8. A channel is provided inside the feed storage box 1 below the equal-quantity discharging structure. The channel is connected to an outlet 15 opened at the bottom of the feed storage box 1, and the outlet 15 is arranged opposite to the feeding position 4.
[0024] Refer to Figure 1 - Figure 4As shown in the figure, the equal - amount feeding structure includes a feeding port 10 opened at the middle position of the bottom surface of the feed storage cavity 8. At the bottom of both side surfaces of the feed storage cavity 8, there are slope surfaces 9, and the bottom of the slope surfaces 9 is connected to the feeding port 10. Inside the feed storage box 1 at the position below the feeding port 10, a rotating shaft 11 is rotatably installed. Outside the feed storage box 1, there is a feeding motor 19. The feeding motor 19 is a servo motor. The rotating shaft of the feeding motor 19 penetrates through the side wall of the feed storage box 1 movably and is connected to the rotating shaft 11. A number of equal - amount feeding baffles 12 are evenly arranged on the outer side of the rotating shaft 11, and the distances from the outer edges of the equal - amount feeding baffles 12 and the two orifices at the lower end of the feeding port 10 to the axis line of the rotating shaft 11 are the same. On one side of the channel at the lower part inside the feed storage box 1, a feeding arc surface 13 is opened. The feeding arc surface 13 is an inclined surface, and the top of the feeding arc surface 13 is attached to the outer edge of the equal - amount feeding baffle 12.
[0025] As an optimized scheme of the present utility model, it is set that the feeding motor 19 drives the rotating shaft 11, and the rotating shaft 11 drives a number of equal - amount feeding baffles 12 to rotate. When two equal - amount feeding baffles 12 are opposite to the bottom of the feeding port 10, the feed in the upper feed storage cavity 8 can fall and enter between the two equal - amount feeding baffles 12. As the rotating shaft 11 rotates, the two equal - amount feeding baffles 12 filled with feed rotate downward, and during the rotation process, the outer edge of the equal - amount feeding baffle 12 is attached to the feeding arc surface 13 until the equal - amount feeding baffle 12 reaches the bottom, and the edge of the equal - amount feeding baffle 12 leaves the feeding arc surface 13, and the feed can fall from it. Since the volumes between the equal - amount feeding baffles 12 are equal, thus, at the same rotation angle, the feeding amount remains equal, and the servo motor can ensure the accuracy of the rotation angle, thereby realizing equal - amount feeding.
[0026] See Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the vibration equalizing structure includes a vibration plate 16 arranged inside the feed storage cavity 8. At one end of the vibration plate 16 far from the feeding port 5, a vibration motor 17 is arranged. The vibration plate 16 is a square - shaped plate, and between the outer periphery of the vibration plate 16 and the inner wall of the feed storage cavity 8, several groups of shock - absorbing connection components 18 are connected;
[0027] The shock - absorbing connection component 18 includes a circular connection head one 1801 connected to the vibration plate 16 and a circular connection head two 1802 connected to the inner wall of the feed storage cavity 8. The diameter of the connection head one 1801 is smaller than that of the connection head two 1802. Between the middle positions of the connection head one 1801 and the connection head two 1802, a main spring 1803 is connected. Between the outer edges of the connection head one 1801 and the connection head two 1802, several lateral auxiliary springs 1804 are connected.
[0028] As an optimized solution of the present utility model, a vibration motor 17 is provided. The vibration motor 17 drives the vibration plate 16 to generate vibration, and the feed added from the feeding port 5 is evenly distributed through vibration, so that the feed can be evenly arranged in the feed storage cavity 8, preventing local accumulation of the feed. The shock-absorbing connection assembly 18 can support the vibration plate 16 while absorbing vibration by means of springs. The main spring 1803 can absorb the main vibration in the horizontal direction, and the lateral auxiliary springs 1804 cooperate with each other in the circumferential direction to absorb the vibration in other directions, preventing the vibration from being transmitted to the external feed storage box 1.
[0029] See Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of flow dividing plates 14 are provided in the discharge port 15. The width of the flow dividing plates 14 is the same as the width of the partition plate 3, and the partition plate 3 and the flow dividing plates 14 are connected. The inner side of the flow dividing plates 14 is attached to the inner wall of the feed storage box 1, and the top of the flow dividing plates 14 is a pointed shape facing upward.
[0030] As an optimized solution of the present utility model, flow dividing plates 14 are provided to divide the feed to both sides during the falling process of the feed, so that the feed can evenly fall into the feeding positions 4 without accumulation at the partition plate 3.
[0031] The usage process of the present utility model:
[0032] First, install the device at the feeding position. After installation, open the feeding cover 6 and start the vibration motor 17. Add enough feed into the feed storage cavity 8 through the feeding cover 6. During the process of adding feed, the vibration is used to make the feed automatically flow to the inner side of the feed storage cavity 8, thus ensuring the uniformity of the feed. After the feeding is completed, close the feeding cover 6. When feeding is required, start the blanking motor 19. Take the included angle between the two equal - amount blanking baffles 12 as a feeding cycle, and the amount of feed falling in each feeding cycle is the same. The user can select the appropriate number of cycles according to the needs and set the rotation angle of the blanking motor 19 to control the amount of feed for each feeding. After the feed falls from the equal - amount blanking structure, it falls through the channel in the feed storage box 1 and then is discharged from the discharge port 15 and falls into each feeding position 4 to complete the feeding, and the feeding amount is uniform.
[0033] It should be understood that the above - mentioned specific embodiments of the present utility model are only used for exemplary illustration or explanation of the principle of the present utility model, and do not constitute a limitation to the present utility model. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model. In addition, the appended claims of the present utility model are intended to cover all changes and modifications that fall within the scope and boundary of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundary.
