Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of livestock breeding equipment, in particular to an anti-icing device for an automatic drinking bowl for cattle in alpine mountainous areas. Background Technique
[0002] An automatic drinking bowl is a drinking device designed specifically for large livestock such as cattle, aiming to provide a convenient and efficient drinking experience while meeting the requirements of modern farms for animal welfare and feeding efficiency. The automatic drinking bowl for cattle controls the water flow through the gravity extrusion of the cow's mouth or tongue, without manual operation, facilitating the cattle to drink water at any time.
[0003] Currently, livestock breeding in alpine mountainous areas faces severe challenges, and one prominent problem is that the automatic drinking bowls for cattle are prone to icing. In the cold winter, with the sudden drop in temperature, especially at night, the temperature can often drop to dozens of degrees below zero. Such extreme weather conditions make the water in the automatic drinking bowl extremely easy to freeze. Once the water freezes, not only can the cattle not drink it, but also the breeder needs to manually remove the ice and refill the water, which not only increases the workload of the breeder but also affects the normal drinking and health of the cattle. Therefore, the utility model provides an anti-icing device for an automatic drinking bowl for cattle in alpine mountainous areas to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.

[0023] This part will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The role of the drawings is to supplement the description in the text part of the specification, enabling people to intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but it cannot be construed as a limitation on the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0024] Refer to Figures 1-5, in an embodiment of the present utility model, an anti-icing device for an automatic drinking bowl for cattle in alpine mountainous areas includes a bottom plate 1 and an automatic drinking bowl 4. Two rear mounting plates 3 are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the rear side of the bottom plate 1. Side plates 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom plate 1. A side formed by the two side plates 2 and opposite to the rear mounting plates 3 serves as an access part. The side plates 2 and the rear mounting plates 3 can form a semi-closed space to ensure that cattle can enter and exit through the access part. The automatic drinking bowl 4 is fixedly connected between the two rear mounting plates 3. A top cover 5 is hinged to the top of the automatic drinking bowl 4 and near the front side. The top cover 5 is used to close the automatic drinking bowl 4 to maintain the heat preservation effect of the automatic drinking bowl 4 and prevent the water body inside from freezing. A tiltable pedal 6 is hinged to the top of the bottom plate 1 and away from the rear mounting plates 3. A plurality of springs 9 are equidistantly installed between the bottom of the pedal 6 and away from the hinged side and the top of the bottom plate 1. When the cattle leave the pedal 6, the elastic force of the springs 9 will cause the pedal 6 to return to its original position;
[0025] Fixed plates 10 are fixedly connected to the rear sides of the two rear mounting plates 3. A first guide rod 11 is fixedly connected between the two fixed plates 10. A lower pressing plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pedal 6 and near the springs 9. A guide plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the automatic drinking bowl 4 and near the rear side. Through holes are opened in the middle parts of the first guide rod 11, the lower pressing plate 7, and the guide plate 13. A connecting rope 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate 1 and near the middle. One end of the connecting rope 8 away from the bottom plate 1 sequentially passes through the through holes of the lower pressing plate 7, the first guide rod 11, and the guide plate 13 and is fixedly connected to the top of the top cover 5 and near the front side.
[0026] When the cattle need to drink water, they will step on the pedal 6. After the pedal 6 is subjected to pressure, it will rotate downward around its hinge point with the bottom plate 1, and at the same time drive the lower pressing plate 7 to move downward. The movement of the lower pressing plate 7 is transmitted to the top cover 5 through the connecting rope 8, and then the top cover 5 is pulled to turn upward. Since the top cover 5 is hinged to the top of the automatic drinking bowl 4 and near the front side, the top cover 5 can be smoothly opened to expose the drinking port for the cattle to drink water. When the cattle leave the pedal 6, the elastic force of the springs 9 will cause the pedal 6 and the connecting rope 8 to return to their original positions. At the same time, the top cover 5 freely falls back to the closed state, thus maintaining the heat preservation effect of the automatic drinking bowl 4, avoiding the problem of the water body inside the automatic drinking bowl 4 freezing, ensuring that the cattle can obtain sufficient drinking water, and being suitable for use in cold areas such as alpine mountainous areas.
[0027] A second guide rod 12 is fixedly connected between the two side plates 2 and near the top of the pedal 6. A through hole for the connecting rope 8 to pass through is also opened inside the second guide rod 12. The through hole opened inside the second guide rod 12 for the connecting rope 8 to pass through increases the movement stability of the connecting rope 8, making it not easy to deviate or get stuck during the movement process.
[0028] The outer surface of the automatic drinking bowl 4 and the upper surface of the upper cover 5 are both provided with heat-insulating cotton, which can improve the heat-insulating performance of the automatic drinking bowl 4 to reduce the influence of the external low-temperature environment on the water body. The top of the pedal 6 is provided with anti-slip textures, which can increase the friction when the cattle step on it and prevent slipping.
[0029] On the bottom of the pedal 6 and on one side close to the spring 9, two limiting columns 14 are symmetrically and fixedly connected. A proper distance is left between the bottoms of the two limiting columns 14 and the top of the bottom plate 1. The distance between the limiting columns 14 and the bottom plate 1 can ensure the free movement of the pedal 6 and also limit the downward pressing stroke of the pedal 6 to prevent it from being over-pressed and causing damage to the spring 9 or breakage of the connecting rope 8.
[0030] The opening and closing angle of the upper cover 5 is 60° - 75°. Keeping the upper cover 5 within this range can ensure that the cattle can drink water smoothly and also ensure the automatic falling and closing of the upper cover 5.
[0031] Working principle: When the cattle need to drink water, they will step on the pedal 6. After the pedal 6 is subjected to pressure, it will rotate downward around its hinge point with the bottom plate 1, and at the same time drive the lower pressing plate 7 to move downward. The movement of the lower pressing plate 7 is transmitted to the upper cover 5 through the connecting rope 8, and then the upper cover 5 is pulled to flip upward. Since the upper cover 5 is hinged to the front side near the top of the automatic drinking bowl 4, the upper cover 5 can be smoothly opened to expose the drinking port for the cattle to drink water. When the cattle leave the pedal 6, the elastic force of the spring 9 will make the pedal 6 and the connecting rope 8 return to their original positions. At the same time, the upper cover 5 will freely fall back to the closed state, thereby maintaining the heat-insulating effect of the automatic drinking bowl 4, avoiding the problem of the water body inside the automatic drinking bowl 4 freezing, ensuring that the cattle can obtain sufficient drinking water, and being suitable for use in cold areas such as alpine mountainous areas.
[0032] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art in the said technical field, various changes can also be made without departing from the purpose of the present utility model.
