Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of livestock and poultry breeding, and particularly relates to a quantitative feeding trough for broilers. Background Art
[0002] Broilers refer to young chickens specifically used for producing chicken meat and are generally called edible meat chickens. The breeding of broilers necessarily requires various feeds and the like to be fed to enable the broilers to have sufficient food nutrition. Usually, when breeding livestock and poultry such as broilers, corresponding feeding troughs are required for the broilers to eat. During feeding, the food is put into the feeding trough. However, the following drawbacks still exist in the actual feeding process:
[0003] 1. First of all, most of the conventional feeding methods for feeds are manual feeding, which is very difficult to ensure that the amount of feed in each feeding trough is constant, and there will always be more or less situations, which will lead to unbalanced feeding nutrition for broilers and unable to ensure stable growth. Therefore, it is necessary to keep the input amount of feed as constant as possible.
[0004] 2. Secondly, even if the input amount of feed is kept constant, it is achieved by using various mechanical devices. However, for broilers in the growth period, the amount of feed required at each stage is different. Therefore, different amounts of quantitative feed need to be fed in each production cycle, and a single quantitative feeding method cannot meet the needs.
[0005] 3. Finally, the feed is stored in some silos, and only a little is released during feeding. However, during the long-term storage of the feed, there may be too much feed in the silo, or it may be affected by moisture, etc., which may cause bridging phenomena, thus affecting the feeding operation of the feed. Content of the Utility Model
[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a quantitative feeding trough for broilers. By setting a storage bin, a cylinder, a first feeding trough, a second feeding trough, a sliding block, a bottom plate, a screw rod, an adjusting rod, and a mixing shaft, the problems of lacking the function of quantitatively feeding feed, different amounts of quantitative feed feeding methods required at different growth stages of broilers, and the possible bridging phenomenon of the feed are solved.
[0007] To solve the above technical problems, the utility model is realized through the following technical solutions:
[0008] The utility model relates to a quantitative feeding trough for broilers, which comprises a storage bin, a cylinder, a trough one, a trough two, a sliding block and a bottom plate. A substrate is fixed on the side of the storage bin, and a cylinder is fixed on the upper end of the substrate. The telescopic end of the cylinder penetrates through the substrate downward and is fixed with a cross plate. Below the cross plate, there are evenly distributed troughs one. A trough two is slidably sleeved outside the lower part of each trough one. A sliding block is slidably arranged in the trough one. The bottom end of the sliding block is fixed with an adjusting rod. A bottom plate is arranged at the bottom of the trough two, and a conical block is fixed on the upper end of the bottom plate. The lower part of the adjusting rod is provided with threads, and the lower part of the adjusting rod penetrates through the conical block and the bottom plate and extends out. Nuts are screwed on the threaded sections of the adjusting rod above the conical block and below the bottom plate respectively. The bottom of the storage bin is fixedly provided with evenly distributed discharge channels, and the bottom ends of the discharge channels are connected with the side walls of the troughs one in a penetrating manner.
[0009] Further, a motor is fixed outside the end wall of the storage bin, a mixing shaft is rotatably connected between the two inner end walls of the storage bin, and evenly distributed mixing rods are fixed outside the mixing shaft. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected with the end of the mixing shaft.
[0010] Further, symmetrically distributed reinforcing plates are also fixed on the upper end of the substrate, and the side of the reinforcing plate close to the storage bin is fixedly connected with the outer side wall of the storage bin.
[0011] Further, ear plates one are fixed on the two outer end walls of the trough one, ear plates two are fixed on the two outer end walls of the trough two, and a screw rod is rotatably connected through the ear plates two in a penetrating manner. The upper part of the screw rod penetrates through the ear plate one in a threaded manner and extends out.
[0012] Further, a lifting rod is fixed on the upper end of the sliding block, and the top end of the lifting rod extends out of the trough one and is fixedly connected with the bottom surface of the cross plate. The upper and lower ends of the trough one are both open.
[0013] Further, the bottom area of the conical block is equal to the inner cavity cross-sectional area of the trough two, and the cross-sectional area of the bottom plate is equal to the cross-sectional area of the trough two.
[0014] The utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. The utility model solves the problem of lacking the function of quantitatively feeding feed by setting a storage bin, a cylinder, a first feed trough, a second feed trough, a sliding block and a bottom plate. When quantitatively feeding the feed, the bottom plate and the conical block close the bottom end of the second feed trough. At this time, the sliding block is located above the connection port of the discharge channel and the first feed trough. The feed in the storage bin enters the first feed trough and the second feed trough through the discharge trough channel, filling the area below the sliding block and above the bottom plate, which is the standard for one-time fixed feeding. When feeding, the cylinder drives the cross plate to descend, drives the sliding block to descend through the lifting rod, so that the bottom plate and the adjusting rod etc. descend. During this process, when the bottom plate disengages from the bottom end of the second feed trough, the feed above it will slide down along the conical block and fall, realizing feeding. During this process, the feed near the sliding block remains in a piled-up state, so no new feed will enter the discharge trough channel. And as the sliding block moves down, it will quickly block the connection port of the discharge channel and the first feed trough, and still no new feed will enter, ensuring accurate quantitative feeding operation.
[0016] 2. The utility model solves the problem of different quantitative feeding methods required for different growth stages of broilers by setting the first feed trough, the second feed trough, the sliding block, the bottom plate, the screw rod and the adjusting rod. When it is necessary to select the appropriate amount of feed for feeding according to the growth cycle of broilers, it is to adjust the distance between the bottom plate and the sliding block and control the feed storage amount between the two. Because the lifting distance of the cross plate driven by the cylinder is the same each time (just making the sliding block block or disengage from the connection port of the discharge channel and the first feed trough), so move the bottom plate and the conical block up and down on the adjusting rod, and then lock them with nuts, then the distance between the bottom plate and the sliding block can be changed. At the same time, rotate the screw rod to change the height of the second feed trough so that the bottom end of the second feed trough touches the bottom plate, thereby changing the feeding amount required at different times.
[0017] 3. The utility model solves the problem that the feed may form a bridge during feeding by setting a storage bin and a mixing shaft. A certain amount of feed is stored in the storage bin for temporary storage. When the cylinder drives the sliding block to rise, the motor works synchronously. When the sliding block exposes the connection port of the discharge channel and the first feed trough, the feed enters the first feed trough through the discharge channel. At this time, the motor works to drive the mixing shaft to rotate, driving the mixing rod to rotate, and dispersing the feed in the storage bin to ensure that no bridging phenomenon will occur.

[0028] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model.
[0029] Please refer to Figure 1-7 As shown, the present utility model is a quantitative feeding trough for broilers, including a storage bin 1, a cylinder 2, a trough 1 3, a trough 2 4, a sliding block 5 and a bottom plate 6. A substrate 102 is fixed on the side of the storage bin 1, a cylinder 2 is fixed at the upper end of the substrate 102, the telescopic end of the cylinder 2 penetrates downward through the substrate 102 and is fixed with a horizontal plate 201. Below the horizontal plate 201, troughs 1 3 are arranged at equal intervals. A trough 2 4 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the lower part of each trough 1 3. A sliding block 5 is slidably arranged in the trough 1 3. The bottom end of the sliding block 5 is fixed with an adjusting rod 502. A bottom plate 6 is arranged at the bottom of the trough 2 4, and a cone block 601 is fixed at the upper end of the bottom plate 6. The lower outer circumference of the adjusting rod 502 is provided with a thread, and the lower part of the adjusting rod 502 penetrates through the cone block 601 and the bottom plate 6 and extends out. Nut 5021 is screwed on the threaded sections of the adjusting rod 502 above the cone block 601 and below the bottom plate 6; The bottom of the storage bin 1 is fixedly provided with discharge channels 104 arranged at equal intervals, and the bottom end of the discharge channel 104 is in through connection with the side wall of the trough 1 3;
[0030] First, a certain amount of feed is stored in the storage bin 1. Secondly, the cylinder 2 is installed using the substrate 102. The cylinder 2 can drive the cross plate 201 to perform reciprocating lifting operations. The feed in the storage bin 1 can be introduced into the first trough 3 and the second trough 4 through the discharge channel 104. Between the sliding block 5 and the bottom plate 6, the bottom plate 6 and the conical block 601 can be lifted and lowered on the threaded section of the adjusting rod 502, and can be locked and fixed by screwing the nut 5021, so as to change the distance between the bottom plate 6 and the sliding block 5 and change the discharge amount.
[0031] It should be noted that the motor 101, the cylinder 2, etc. are all controlled by common timers, controllers, etc. on the market. Since they are common public technical means, they are not described.
[0032] A motor 101 is fixed outside the end wall of the storage bin 1, and a mixing shaft 105 is rotatably connected between the two inner end walls of the storage bin 1. Equal-distance distributed mixing rods 1051 are fixed outside the mixing shaft 105, and the output shaft of the motor 101 is fixedly connected to the end of the mixing shaft 105.
[0033] When the cylinder 2 drives the cross plate 201 and the like to rise, the motor 101 works to drive the mixing shaft 105 to rotate, driving the mixing rods 1051 to rotate, and dispersing and mixing the feed in the storage bin 1 to ensure that there is no bridging phenomenon and ensure smooth discharging. When the sliding block 5 moves up to expose the connection port between the discharge channel 104 and the first trough 3, the feed enters the first trough 3. Subsequently, the motor 101 stops automatically after working for a period of time. At this time, the area between the sliding block 5 and the bottom plate 6 is filled with feed, which is the discharge amount for one feeding.
[0034] Symmetrically distributed reinforcing plates 103 are also fixed on the upper end of the substrate 102. The side of the reinforcing plate 103 close to the storage bin 1 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the storage bin 1; the reinforcing plates 103 are used to strengthen the structure of the substrate 102 and the storage bin 1 to prevent the substrate 102 from bending, etc.
[0035] Lugs 301 are fixed on the two outer end walls of the first trough 3, and lugs 401 are fixed on the two outer end walls of the second trough 4. A screw rod 402 is rotatably connected through the lugs 401, and the upper part of the screw rod 402 is threadedly penetrated through the lugs 301 and extends out.
[0036] Rotate the screw rod 402, and the screw rod 402 rotates and lifts in the lugs 301, thereby driving the lugs 401 to lift. The screw rod 402 and the lugs 401 keep rotating or inserting, etc., without thread connection, so it can drive the lugs 401 to lift and drive the second trough 4 to perform lifting operations.
[0037] A lifting rod 501 is fixed to the upper end of the sliding block 5, and the top end of the lifting rod 501 extends out of the first material chute 3 and is fixed to the bottom surface of the cross plate 201. Both the upper and lower ends of the first material chute 3 are open. The sliding block 5 is connected to the cross plate 201 through the lifting rod 501. Therefore, when the air cylinder 2 drives the cross plate 201 to lift or lower, the sliding block 5 moves up and down accordingly.
[0038] The bottom area of the conical block 601 is equal to the cross-sectional area of the inner cavity of the second material chute 4, and the cross-sectional area of the bottom plate 6 is equal to the cross-sectional area of the second material chute 4. The bottom plate 6 can block the bottom end of the second material chute 4, and the conical block 601 can extend into the second material chute 4. When discharging, the feed is discharged along the inclined surface of the conical block 601 without residue.
[0039] The specific working principle of the present utility model is as follows: First, a certain amount of feed is stored in the storage bin 1. The air cylinder 2 can drive the cross plate 201 to perform reciprocating lifting operations. When the air cylinder 2 drives the cross plate 201 and others to rise, it drives the cross plate 201, the lifting rod 501, and the sliding block 5 to rise. At this time, the motor 101 works to drive the mixing shaft 105 to rotate, driving the mixing rod 1051 to rotate, and dispersing and mixing the feed in the storage bin 1. Until the sliding block 5 moves up to the connection port of the discharge channel 104 and the first material chute 3 and leaks out, the feed enters the first material chute 3 through the discharge channel 104. Subsequently, the motor 101 stops automatically after working for a period of time. At this time, the area between the sliding block 5 and the bottom plate 6 is filled with feed. When discharging and feeding, the air cylinder 2 drives the cross plate 201 and others to descend. At this time, the bottom plate 6 and the adjusting rod 502 and others descend. When the bottom plate 6 separates from the bottom end of the second material chute 4, the feed above it will slide down along the inclined surface of the conical block 601 and fall to achieve feeding. During this process, the feed near the sliding block 5 remains in a stacked state, so no new feed will enter the discharge chute. And as the sliding block 5 moves down, it will quickly block the connection port of the discharge channel 104 and the first material chute 3, and still no new feed will enter, ensuring accurate quantitative feeding operations. Just perform such timed repeated operations;
[0040] When it is necessary to control the discharge amount according to the growth cycle of broilers, rotate the screw rod 402. The ear plate one 301 of the screw rod 402 rotates and rises in the internal thread, thereby driving the ear plate two 401 to rise, and then driving the second material chute 4 to rise as much as possible. Subsequently, move the height positions of the bottom plate 6 and the conical block 601. After selecting the corresponding height, use the nut 5021 to tighten and fix. At this time, rotate the screw rod 402 to make the second material chute 4 descend until the bottom end of the second material chute 4 contacts the bottom plate 6, completing the adjustment of the distance between the bottom plate 6 and the sliding block 5, thereby changing the feeding amount.
[0041] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the present utility model. Any modification to the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, any equivalent replacement of some technical features, and any modification, equivalent replacement, and improvement made all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
