[0025] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0026] Example: Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the utility model provides a structure for cleaning moldy materials at the bottom of a feed box, comprising a bracket 1 and multi-layer chicken cages 2 vertically spaced apart and arranged in the bracket 1. One side of each layer of the chicken cages 2 on the bracket 1 is fixedly mounted with troughs 3 uniformly distributed along the extension direction of the chicken cages 2. A feed box 4 for adding feed to the trough 3 is slidably connected to one side of the bracket 1 close to the trough 3. A discharge pipe connected to the feed box 4 is provided on one side of the outer wall of the feed box 4, and a vertical movable component 5 is provided on the inner wall of the feed box 4.

[0027] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the vertical moving assembly 5 includes a first moving chamber 51 and a second moving chamber 52 arranged on both sides of the inner side wall of the feed box 4. The center of the top wall of the first moving chamber 51 is rotatably connected to a threaded rod 53, and the top of the threaded rod 53 is fixedly connected to a gear 11. A rack 12 meshing with the gear 11 is provided on the side of the outer wall of the bracket 1 close to the gear 11. The starting position of the feed box 4 is at one end close to the rack 12, and it is reset again after use. The outer side of the threaded rod 53 is slidably connected to a threaded slider 54 adapted to the threaded rod 53. When it is necessary to add feed to the trough 3 through the feed box 4, the feed box 4 first moves a certain distance along the trough 3. During this process, the gear 11 and the rack 12 are engaged, driving the threaded rod 53 to rotate, thereby causing the threaded slider 54 adapted to the threaded rod 53 to move downward;

[0028] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, vertical slide bars 55 are vertically provided on both sides of the first movable cavity 51 and the second movable cavity 52, and the outer side walls of the vertical slide bars 55 are slidably connected with vertical sliders 56. A connecting rod is fixedly connected between the vertical slider 56 in the first movable cavity 51 and the threaded slider 54. A horizontal slide rail 57 is fixedly connected between the vertical slider 56 in the first movable cavity 51 and the vertical slider 56 in the second movable cavity 52. When the threaded slider 54 moves downward, the vertical slider 56 in the first movable cavity 51, which is fixedly connected to the threaded slider 54 through the connecting rod, moves downward with the threaded slider 54. The vertical slider 56 and the vertical slider 56 located in the second moving chamber 52 are fixedly connected by a horizontal slide rail 57. Therefore, when the vertical slider 56 located in the first moving chamber 51 follows the threaded slider 54 to move downward, the horizontal slide rail 57 and the vertical slider 56 located in the second moving chamber 52 also move downward. A cleaning component 6 for cleaning the bottom of the material box 4 is slidably connected below the horizontal slide rail 57. Baffles 16 are fixedly connected to both sides of the upper surface of the horizontal slide rail 57, and the baffles 16 are adapted to both the first moving chamber 51 and the second moving chamber 52. The baffle 16 close to the first moving chamber 51 should be provided with an opening adapted to the piston cylinder 7.

[0029] like Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the cleaning assembly 6 includes a horizontal slide bar 61 horizontally arranged inside the two horizontal slide rails 57, and the outsides of the two horizontal slide bars 61 are slidably connected to the horizontal sliders 62, and the bottoms of the two horizontal sliders 62 are fixedly connected to the support plates 63, and the end of the support plates 63 away from the horizontal sliders 62 is fixedly connected to the scraper 64, and the inner side wall of the horizontal slide rail 57 is fixedly connected to the side close to the bracket 1. The compression spring 65 is fixedly connected to the horizontal slider 62 at one end away from the horizontal slide rail 57. As the sliders 56 all move downward, the scraper 64 first follows the horizontal slide rail 57 to move downward until it abuts the bottom wall of the material box 4, and then the vertical slider 56 continues to move downward, and the scraper 64 moves along the bottom wall of the material box 4 to scrape off the moldy material on the bottom wall of the material box 4, while driving the horizontal slider 62 to slide along the horizontal slide rod 61 to the side of the bracket 1 and compressing the compression spring 65. As the vertical slider 56 moves downward, it drives the baffle 16 to move downward. When the scraping is completed, new material is added to the material box 4. The baffle 16 can prevent the feed from entering the first moving cavity 51 and the second moving cavity 52 as much as possible, and then the feed box 4 slides at a uniform speed along the trough 3, and the feed in the feed box 4 is discharged through the discharge pipe during the sliding process. After the discharge is completed, the feed box 4 slides along the trough 3 again and resets. During the reset process, the gear 11 engages with the rack 12 again, causing the threaded rod 53 to rotate in the opposite direction of feeding the trough 3, thereby causing the threaded slider 54 to move upward, and drive the vertical slider 56, the horizontal slide rail 57 and the baffle. 16 moves upward, and during this process, the compression spring 65 pushes the horizontal slider 62 and the scraper 64 to return to the side away from the bracket 1. Both sides of the inner side wall of the material box 4 are fixedly connected with the side slide rails 14 parallel to the inner bottom wall of the material box 4, and the side of the support plate 63 close to the side slide rail 14 is fixedly connected with the side slider 15 adapted to the side slide rail 14. When the scraper 64 moves along the inner bottom wall of the material box 4, the side slider 15 slides along the side slide rail 14, thereby improving the stability of the scraper 64 when moving;

[0030] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the bottom of the inner wall of the feed box 4 near the chicken cage 2 is fixedly connected with a piston cylinder 7, and the inside of the piston cylinder 7 is slidably connected with a piston plate 8. The piston plate 8 is fixedly connected to the threaded slider 54 through an L-shaped connecting rod. A one-way air inlet valve 9 is provided at the bottom of one side of the outer wall of the piston cylinder 7. An inclined air nozzle 10 is provided at the bottom of the piston cylinder 7. The air outlet of the inclined air nozzle 10 is directed toward the discharge port of the feed box 4. When the threaded slider 54 and the vertical slider 56 move downward and drive the scraper 64 to scrape the moldy material on the bottom wall of the feed box 4, The piston plate 8 will be driven to move downward, squeezing the air below the piston plate 8 inside the piston cylinder 7, and then the air below the piston plate 8 inside the piston cylinder 7 will be ejected through the inclined air nozzle 10, blowing the moldy material scraped off by the scraper 64 out of the discharge port of the material box 4. When the material box 4 is reset, the piston plate 8 moves upward and resets following the threaded slider 54. The space below the piston plate 8 inside the piston cylinder 7 is filled with air through the one-way air inlet valve 9, keeping the air pressure inside the space below the piston plate 8 inside the piston cylinder 7 equal to the external air pressure.

[0031] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, a moldy material discharge port 13 is provided on one side of the bottom of the trough 3 near the rack 12. The moldy material blown out from the discharge port of the material box 4 will pass through the moldy material discharge port 13 and fall again to be discharged from the inside of the trough 3. A box can be set on the ground below the moldy material discharge port 13 to receive the discharged moldy material.

[0032] During operation, the starting position of the feed box 4 is at one end close to the rack 12. When feed needs to be added to the trough 3 through the feed box 4, the feed box 4 first moves a certain distance along the trough 3. During this process, the gear 11 and the rack 12 are engaged, driving the threaded rod 53 to rotate, thereby causing the threaded slider 54 adapted to the threaded rod 53 to move downward. When the threaded slider 54 moves downward, the vertical slider 56 located in the first moving chamber 51, which is fixedly connected to the threaded slider 54 through the connecting rod, moves downward along with the threaded slider 54. Since the vertical slider 56 located in the first moving chamber 51 and the vertical slider 56 located in the second moving chamber 52 are fixedly connected by the horizontal slide rail 57, when the vertical slider 56 located in the first moving chamber 51 moves downward along with the threaded slider 54, the horizontal slide rail 57 and the vertical slider 56 located in the second moving chamber 52 also move downward.

[0033] As the vertical sliders 56 move downward, the scraper 64 first follows the horizontal slide rail 57 and moves downward until it contacts the inner bottom wall of the material box 4. Then, the vertical slider 56 continues to move downward, and the scraper 64 moves along the inner bottom wall of the material box 4 to scrape off the moldy material on the inner bottom wall of the material box 4. At the same time, it drives the horizontal slider 62 to slide along the horizontal slide rod 61 toward the side of the bracket 1 and compresses the compression spring 65.

[0034] When the vertical slider 56 moves downward, the baffle 16 is driven to move downward. When the threaded slider 54 and the vertical slider 56 move downward and drive the scraper 64 to scrape the moldy material from the bottom wall of the material box 4, the piston plate 8 is also driven to move downward, squeezing the air below the piston plate 8 inside the piston cylinder 7, and then the air below the piston plate 8 inside the piston cylinder 7 is ejected through the inclined air nozzle 10, and the moldy material scraped off by the scraper 64 is blown out from the discharge port of the material box 4. The moldy material blown out from the discharge port of the material box 4 will pass through the moldy material discharge port 13 and fall again to be discharged from the inside of the trough 3;

[0035] After the moldy material on the bottom wall of the feed box 4 is scraped off, new feed is added to the feed box 4. The baffle 16 can prevent the feed from entering the first movable cavity 51 and the second movable cavity 52 as much as possible. Then the feed box 4 slides at a constant speed along the trough 3, and the feed in the feed box 4 is discharged through the discharge pipe during the sliding process.

[0036] After the discharge is completed, the material box 4 slides along the trough 3 again and resets. During the reset process, the gear 11 engages with the rack 12 again, causing the threaded rod 53 to rotate in the opposite direction of adding material to the trough 3, thereby causing the threaded slider 54 to move upward, and driving the vertical slider 56, the horizontal slide rail 57 and the baffle 16 to move upward and reset. At the same time, the compression spring 65 pushes the horizontal slider 62 and the scraper 64 to reset to the side away from the bracket 1. When the material box 4 is reset, the piston plate 8 follows the threaded slider 54 to move upward and reset. The space below the piston plate 8 in the piston cylinder 7 is aired through the one-way air intake valve 9, keeping the air pressure in the space below the piston plate 8 inside the piston cylinder 7 equal to the external air pressure.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art will be able to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents.
