Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of livestock breeding equipment, and more specifically to a liquid feed feeder for pigs. Background Art

[0002] At present, pig farming is developing towards large-scale development, feed prices are getting more and more expensive, labor costs are getting higher and higher, dry feed has poor palatability for pigs, feed intake is reduced, and it cannot meet the habits of pigs, especially powdered feed. Pigs are prone to inhaling powdered feed during consumption, causing respiratory diseases, wasting feed, and increasing dust in the pig pen. Therefore, the pig farming industry gradually uses liquid feed formed by mixing powdered feed and water to feed pigs, so as to improve their palatability and feed intake.

[0003] Based on the above, the inventors found that most of the liquid feeders on the market require breeders to put powdered feed and water into the feed trough for manual stirring. The liquid feed formed in this way is unevenly mixed, which will lead to blockage of the feed port, and feed will remain on the inner wall of the feed trough, resulting in feed waste. At the same time, when raising pigs on a pig farm, pig feed must be added to the pig trough manually every time the pigs are fed. Since there are many pigs, the feeders need to carry the pig feed buckets and add pig feed to the pig trough one by one, which not only increases the labor of the breeders, but also has low feeding efficiency. Therefore, in view of this, the existing structure is studied and improved to provide a liquid feed feeder for pigs, in order to achieve a more practical purpose. Utility Model Content

[0040] See Figure 3 The agitator 5 includes a stirring shaft 501 installed on the output shaft of the stirring motor 4. A plurality of stirring rods 502 are fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the stirring shaft 501. A scraper 503 is fixedly connected to one end of the stirring rod 502, and one side of the scraper 503 is in contact with the inner wall of the mixing barrel 2. When in use, as the stirring shaft 501 rotates, the scraper 503 also rotates and scrapes off the feed attached to the inner wall of the mixing barrel 2, thereby avoiding waste of feed.

[0041] See Figure 4 A bracket 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mixing barrel 2 and the connection position with the discharge pipe 9. The top surface of the bracket 12 is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the stirring shaft 501 through a bearing. When in use, the setting of the bracket 12 can improve the stability of the stirring shaft 501 during the rotation process.

[0042] See Figure 4 The discharging mechanism 10 includes a fixed blocking plate 1001 fixed to the inside of the discharging pipe 9 and a connecting rod 1003 fixed to the inside of the distribution hopper 8 through a second bracket 1002. The top of the connecting rod 1003 passes through the top of the fixed blocking plate 1001 and is fixedly connected to a movable blocking plate 1004.

[0043] See Figure 4A discharge hole is provided in the middle of the fixed blocking plate 1001, and the discharge hole is matched with the movable blocking plate 1004. When in use, the discharge of liquid feed in the mixing barrel 2 can be facilitated by the setting of the discharge hole, and the matching of the movable blocking plate 1004 with the discharge hole can prevent the feed from leaking from the discharge pipe 9 when no feeding is needed.

[0044] See Figure 2 The reset assembly 11 includes a T-shaped limit rod 1101 fixed to the top of the feeding tray 6 and a limit plate 1102 fixed to the support frame 1. The limit plate 1102 is slidably mounted on the outer periphery of the T-shaped limit rod 1101. A reset spring 1103 is mounted on the outer periphery of the T-shaped limit rod 1101 and is located between the inner side of the T-shaped limit rod 1101 and the top surface of the limit plate 1102.

[0045] See Figure 1 A feed port is provided on the top of the mixing barrel 2, and a flip cover 13 is connected to the feed port by a hinge.

[0046] When in use: start the stirring motor 4, and with the cooperation of the stirring shaft 501, the stirring rod 502 can be rotated, so that the feed can be fully and evenly stirred in the mixing barrel 2, avoiding the phenomenon that the liquid feed is unevenly mixed and the discharge pipe 9 is blocked. At the same time, a scraper 503 is added. During the stirring process, the scraper 503 can scrape off the feed attached to the inner wall of the mixing barrel 2, avoiding feed waste; when there is insufficient feed in the feeding tray 6, the deformed return spring 1103 is reset, and the feeding tray 6, the distribution hopper 8 and the movable blocking plate 1004 on the connecting rod 1003 are moved up, and the feed discharge hole is opened and feeding begins. As the feed increases, the feeding tray 6 becomes heavier and is gradually pressed down. At this time, the movable blocking plate 1004 moves down until the feed hole is blocked and feeding stops. The whole operation can be cyclic, which can realize the function of automatic feed addition, reduce the labor of the breeder, and greatly improve the feeding efficiency.
