Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of livestock farming. More specifically, it relates to a single-sided feeder. Background Art

[0002] The scale of livestock farming is gradually increasing. Large-scale farming has become an inevitable trend in the development of agriculture in China. When managing the growth of domestic pigs, important factors such as the breeding environment of domestic pigs need to be considered to produce high-quality domestic pigs.

[0003] To ensure the healthy growth of domestic pigs, sufficient and appropriate feed needs to be provided. A feeder is an essential tool for providing feed to domestic pigs.

[0004] The main existing drawbacks of the current feeder are as follows: The feeder cannot control the speed of providing feed when supplying feed; in order to avoid feed deterioration, the feed generally needs to go through a drying process. When the feeder provides feed, domestic pigs may have a poor appetite due to the overly dry feed, resulting in poor feeding effects. Summary of the Invention

[0030] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0031] The single-sided feeder provided by the embodiments of the present application will now be described.

[0032] Embodiment

[0033] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a single-sided feeder is provided with a feed trough 1, a hopper 2 arranged above the feed trough 1, and a buffer trough 3 between the feed trough 1 and the hopper 2; a communication port 21 and a guide plate 22 are arranged between the hopper 2 and the buffer trough 3. The guide plate 22 is inclined and arranged at the lower end of the communication port 21. The feed flowing out through the communication port 21 flows towards the buffer trough 3 through the guide plate 22. After the buffer trough 3 is filled with feed, it will fall from the edge of the buffer trough 3 into the feed trough 1, and pigs eat in the feed trough 1.

[0034] The single-sided feeder is further provided with an orientation plate 4, a baffle 5 and an adjusting mechanism 6. The baffle 5 is movably arranged on the orientation plate 4, and the adjusting mechanism 6 is used to drive the baffle 5 to move; the orientation plate 4 is inclined and arranged in the hopper 2, and the lower end of the baffle 5 extends into the communication port 21. In this embodiment, the side plate of the hopper 2 is used as the orientation plate 4, which can not only save materials but also avoid the orientation plate 4 occupying the space in the hopper 2; the baffle 5 abuts against the orientation plate 4, which can increase the stability of the baffle 5.

[0035] As Figure 1 shown, the baffle 5 moves downward to abut against the guide plate 22 and reaches the lower limit position. The adjusting plate 5 and the guide plate 22 cooperate with each other to block the communication port 21, avoid the feed from flowing out of the hopper 2, and temporarily store the feed in the hopper 2.

[0036] As Figure 2 shown, the baffle 5 moves upward to the upper limit position, the width of the communication port 21 is the largest, and the feed outflow speed in the hopper 2 is the fastest; the baffle 5 can also be selected at any position between the lower limit and the upper limit to control the feed outflow speed from the hopper 2 to be moderate.

[0037] As shown Figure 3 in the figure, the adjusting mechanism 6 is provided with an adjusting seat 61 and an adjusting rod 62 hinged to the adjusting seat 61. By holding the edge of the adjusting rod 62, the lever principle is utilized to save effort. A connecting rod 63 is provided between the adjusting rod 62 and the baffle 5, and both the adjusting rod 62 and the baffle 5 are hinged to the connecting rod 63. By rotating the adjusting rod 62, the baffle 5 can be conveniently driven to move, controlling the degree to which the baffle 5 extends into the communication port 21, changing the size of the communication port 21, and adjusting the speed at which the feed flows from the communication port 21 to the material guiding plate 22 to provide an appropriate amount of feed for the pigs.

[0038] The adjusting mechanism 6 is further provided with a locking mechanism 64. The locking mechanism 64 is used to limit the angle of the adjusting rod 62 on the adjusting seat 61, and by controlling the degree to which the baffle 5 extends into the communication port 21, the size of the communication port 21 is controlled.

[0039] The locking mechanism 64 is provided with a locking disk 641 and a locking portion 642 that engages with the locking disk 641. There are mutually cooperating positioning teeth between the locking disk 641 and the locking portion 642. The locking disk 641 is provided at the edge of the adjusting seat 61, and the locking portion 642 is fixedly provided on the adjusting rod 62. When the locking portion 642 abuts against the locking disk 641, the locking mechanism 64 is locked and the angle of the adjusting rod 62 is fixed; when the locking portion 642 disengages from the locking disk 641, the locking mechanism 64 is unlocked and the adjusting rod 62 can rotate.

[0040] The locking mechanism 64 is further provided with a compression spring 643. The compression spring 643 is provided outside the adjusting rod 62 and is compressed by the adjusting rod 62. The compression spring 643 presses the adjusting rod 62 against the adjusting seat 61. In the absence of external force, the adjusting rod 62 abuts against the adjusting seat 61, the locking portion 642 abuts against the locking disk 641, and the locking mechanism 64 is automatically locked; by pulling the adjusting rod 62 outwards, the locking portion 642 can be made to disengage from the locking disk 641.

[0041] A lifting shaft 631 is provided on the connecting rod 63. The lifting shaft 631 is provided at the connection between the connecting rod 63 and the adjusting rod 62. The adjusting seat 61 is provided with a directional hole 611, and the directional hole 611 is arranged along the vertical direction; the adjusting rod 62 is provided with an adjusting hole 621, and the adjusting hole 621 is provided at the middle position of the adjusting rod 62. The adjusting hole 621 and the directional hole 611 are staggered; the lifting shaft 631 passes through the directional hole 611 and the adjusting hole 621. In this embodiment, the compression spring 643 is sleeved outside the lifting shaft 631, and the lifting shaft 631 is used to support and control the direction of the compression spring 643.

[0042] Both the adjusting hole 621 and the directional hole 611 are in the shape of oblong holes.

[0043] A pressing mechanism 7 is further provided to press the baffle 5 against the directional plate 4.

[0044] The pressing mechanism 7 is provided with a pressing bolt 71 and a pressing nut 72. The baffle plate 5 and the orientation plate 4 are arranged between the pressing bolt 71 and the pressing nut 72 and are penetrated by the pressing bolt 71. The baffle plate 5 is provided with a sliding hole, and the sliding hole is in the shape of an oblong hole. The pressing bolt 71 is arranged in the sliding hole.

[0045] A water replenishing valve 8 is further provided. The water replenishing valve 8 is arranged between the buffer tank 3 and the feed tank 1. When the water replenishing valve 8 is opened, water enters the feed tank 1 through the water replenishing valve 8. Domestic pigs can also supplement water when eating, avoiding affecting eating due to dry feed and ensuring the feeding effect.

[0046] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
