[0016] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the specific embodiments and with reference to the drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are only exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. In addition, in the following description, the descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted to avoid unnecessarily confusing the concepts of the utility model.

[0017] Detailed Embodiment: Combine Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, a chicken feeding device includes a trough body 1. An opening 13 is provided at the top of the trough body 1, and the periphery of the trough body 1 is closed. It further includes a stepping frame 2. The stepping frame 2 is U-shaped and consists of a cross bar and two vertical bars. The ends of the two vertical bars away from the cross bar are respectively rotatably connected to the rear parts on both sides of the trough body 1. In the natural state, the cross bar is in a suspended state. The trough body 1 is provided with shaft cylinders 4 at the positions on both sides of the rear of the opening 13. It also includes a cover plate 5. Both ends of the cover plate 5 are provided with rotating shafts 51, and the two rotating shafts 51 are respectively rotatably connected to the two shaft cylinders 4. A convex column 511 is provided on the rotating shaft 51, and a hanging point 22 is provided on the vertical bar. The hanging point 22 is located between the rotating shaft 51 and the cross bar. One end of a soft rope 3 is connected to the hanging point 22, and the other end bypasses the rear side of the rotating shaft 51 from bottom to top and then is connected to the convex column 511 forward. The weight of the stepping frame 2 should be as light as possible, while the cover plate 5 should be appropriately heavier, so that under the action of gravity, the cover plate 5 can rotate around the rotating shaft 51 and cover the opening 13 downward. Combined with Figure 1 As shown in the figure, when a chicken steps on the cross bar, under the action of the chicken's gravity, the cross bar descends, and the soft rope 3 pulls the convex column 511 to make the rotating shaft 51 rotate clockwise, so that the cover plate 5 rotates to open the opening 13. The length of the soft rope 3 should be appropriate, so that the angle formed between the cover plate 5 and the horizontal plane at this time is less than 90 degrees and it is always located on the side of the rotating shaft 51 close to the opening 13. Then the chicken can eat the feed. When the chicken walks away after eating, under the action of gravity, the cover plate 5 rotates to cover the opening 13. Since common birds such as sparrows are relatively small in size and light in weight, they cannot open the opening 13 when standing on the cross bar, so they cannot steal the feed. Due to the presence of the cover plate 5, rainwater is not easily introduced into the interior of the trough body 1 when it rains.

[0018] Preferably, a front slope 11 is provided at the top of the trough body 1. The front part of the front slope 11 is lower than its rear part, and the opening 13 is provided at the front slope 11, so that the front part of the opening 13 is lower, which is convenient for the chicken to eat.

[0019] Further, a rear slope 12 is also provided at the top of the trough body 1. The rear part of the rear slope 12 is lower than its front part, and the two shaft cylinders 4 are respectively located on both sides of the rear slope 12. The rainwater falling on the rear slope 12 will flow backward.

[0020] Further, the periphery of the cover plate 5 is respectively at a certain distance outside the periphery of the opening 13, so that rainwater is even less likely to enter the opening 13. Since the front part of the opening 13 is lower, at this time, rainwater is not easily flowed from the upper surface of the cover plate 5 along the front side of the cover plate 5 to its bottom surface and then dripped into the opening 13. A whole rotating shaft 51 can be provided at the rear side of the cover plate 5. The rear side of the cover plate 5 is combined with the rotating shaft 51, and the water flowing down along the rotating shaft 51 will fall on the rear slope 12 and then flow backward.

[0021] Further, both the left and right sides of the cover plate 5 are provided with edge guards 52, and the edge guards 52 are located outside the trough body 1. When the cover plate 5 covers the opening 13, due to the existence of the edge guards 52, rainwater is not easily drained from the upper surface of the cover plate 5 along the left and right sides of the cover plate 5 to its bottom surface and then drips into the opening 13.

[0022] Preferably, a plurality of cross bars 21 are further provided on the tread frame 2. In this case, chickens can step on the cross bars or the cross bars 21.

[0023] Preferably, cushion strips 6 are further provided on both sides of the bottom of the trough body 1, and the cushion strips 6 can lift the trough body 1.

[0024] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the descriptions in the specification are only preferred examples of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention claimed.
