[0002] A feeding trough is a container for placing the feed or hay that sheep eat, ensuring that sheep can obtain sufficient food when needed. The design and layout of the feeding trough usually depend on the scale of the sheep farm, the type of sheep, and the preferences of the farmers. In the sheep farming industry, providing sufficient and clean feed is crucial for the health and growth of sheep.

[0003] The Chinese patent document with the authorization announcement number CN218941982U proposes a Hu sheep feeding trough that is convenient for uniform feeding, including a feeding trough frame and an internal uniform feeding mechanism. A feeding trough fixing frame is arranged on one side of the feeding trough frame, and a feeding compression frame mechanism is installed on one side of the feeding trough fixing frame. The internal uniform feeding mechanism is arranged in the middle of the feeding trough frame. The internal uniform feeding mechanism includes an internal trough frame and a slide rail frame, and a slide rail frame is arranged below the internal trough frame.

[0004] In the above application, although the uniformly placed bales of Hu sheep forage can be put into the internal uniform feeding mechanism and the feeding trough frame for feeding, reducing the manual feeding frequency, it lacks consideration of the problems that occur when sheep eat. When feeding, sheep will scramble for food with each other. The stronger sheep will squeeze or even snatch the feed from the weaker sheep, and when sheep eat, they are prone to arch the forage out of the feeding trough, increasing the cleaning burden.

Specific embodiments

[0021] Embodiment 1

[0022] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, a feeding trough for a sheep house proposed by the present utility model includes a bottom plate 1, a shielding component 3 and a feeding component 4. The main body of the feeding trough 2 is arranged above the bottom plate 1. The shielding component 3 is arranged on both sides of the main body of the feeding trough 2; during feeding, it shields the feeding side of the main body of the feeding trough 2 and releases the feeding side; when the sheep are eating, it shields the feeding side of the main body of the feeding trough 2 and releases the feeding side. The feeding component 4 is arranged on the feeding side of the main body of the feeding trough 2 and uniformly feeds the feed into the main body of the feeding trough 2.

[0023] Further explanation, the shielding component 3 includes supports 31 arranged on both sides of the main body of the feeding trough 2 to support the main body of the feeding trough 2; the lower ends of the supports 31 are arranged on the bottom plate 1; gears 34 are respectively rotatably connected to both ends of the main body of the feeding trough 2; a first driving mechanism 35 is coaxially connected to the gears 34, and racks 36 are respectively meshed and connected to both sides of the two gears 34; a baffle 37 is commonly connected between the two racks 36 on the same side; the baffle 37 is slidably connected to a sliding groove 38 opened on the support 31. When feeding, the baffle 37 facing the flock is raised, and the baffle 37 on the other side is lowered. On the one hand, it prevents the sheep from rushing forward to grab food during feeding, which hinders feeding; on the other hand, it unifies the time when the sheep start eating and avoids the sheep grabbing food from each other. In addition, after the meal time ends, the baffle 37 on this side is raised again, which can also prevent the sheep from eating too much and causing indigestion or flatulence, which is not good for the health of the sheep. When the sheep are eating, the baffle 37 facing the flock is raised, and the baffle 37 facing the flock is lowered. On the one hand, it allows the sheep to move forward to eat, and on the other hand, it prevents the sheep from arching the feed out of the main body of the feeding trough 2 when eating, soiling the ground of the sheep house and increasing the cleaning burden of the staff.

[0024] Further explanation: At the upper end of one side of the feeding trough body 2, there is a guardrail 32; a plurality of partition rods 33 are evenly arranged between the guardrail 32 and the feeding trough body 2; the partition rods 33 divide the guardrail 32 into a plurality of feeding spaces. Each sheep can correspond to one feeding space, which avoids sheep squeezing each other when eating feed and also prevents stronger sheep from robbing the feed of weaker sheep, making the feeding amount of each sheep relatively uniform.

[0025] Embodiment 2

[0026] As Figure 4 shown, a sheep house feeding trough proposed by the present utility model, compared with Embodiment 1, this embodiment further includes: The feeding assembly 4 includes vertical rods 41 symmetrically arranged at the upper end of the bottom plate 1; a storage bin 42 is provided at the upper end of one of the vertical rods 41, and a stop block 43 is provided at the upper end of the other vertical rod 41; a feeding trough 44 is connected between the storage bin 42 and the stop block 43; the feeding trough 44 is communicated with the discharge port of the storage bin 42, and a plurality of blanking grooves 48 are evenly arranged on one side of the feeding trough 44; the discharge end of the blanking groove 48 is located above the feeding trough body 2; a rotating shaft 45 passing through the discharge port of the storage bin 42 is jointly provided in the storage bin 42 and the feeding trough 44; one end of the rotating shaft 45 is connected to a second driving mechanism 46 arranged on the stop block 43, and the other end is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the storage bin 42, and a spiral blade 47 is also wound around the side wall of the rotating shaft 45. It can automatically feed the feed, eliminating the need for manual feeding by staff, reducing the labor intensity of the staff, and at the same time making the feed more evenly distributed.

[0027] Further explanation: The blanking grooves 48 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the feeding spaces separated on the guardrail 32. This makes the feeding amount of each sheep relatively uniform, so as to make the growth of each sheep balanced.

[0028] Further explanation: The discharge end of the blanking groove 48 is arranged to slope downwards to facilitate blanking.

[0029] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows: During operation, first start the first driving mechanism 35 to drive the gear 34 to rotate, so that the rack 36 and the baffle 37 on the feeding side rise, and the rack 36 and the baffle 37 on the feeding side lower. On the one hand, it prevents sheep from rushing forward to grab food during feeding, which hinders feeding; on the other hand, it unifies the time when sheep start eating and avoids sheep robbing food from each other. Then start the second driving mechanism 46 to drive the rotating shaft 45 and the spiral blade 47 to rotate, transmit the feed in the storage bin 42 into the feeding trough 44, and then fall into the feeding trough body 2 along the blanking groove 48, evenly feeding the feed, making the feeding amount of each sheep relatively uniform, so as to make the growth of each sheep balanced. Then start the first driving mechanism 35 again to drive the gear 34 to rotate in the reverse direction, so that the baffle 37 on the feeding side rises and the baffle 37 on the feeding side lowers, preventing sheep from arching the feed out of the feeding trough body 2 when eating, soiling the ground of the sheep house and increasing the cleaning burden of the staff.

[0030] 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 thereto, and various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the relevant technical field.
