Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of feeders, and more specifically, to a quantitative feeder. Background Art

[0002] Animal husbandry is a production sector that utilizes domesticated animals such as livestock and poultry to convert plant energy such as forage and feed into animal energy through artificial breeding and reproduction, in order to obtain livestock products such as meat, eggs, milk, wool, cashmere, hides, silk and medicinal herbs. In the process of feeding animals, manual feeding is usually used, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Therefore, in order to save manpower, feeders can be used to feed livestock.

[0003] However, there are various types of feeders in the prior art. For example, utility model patent CN204384150U relates to a feeder, which includes a control rod, a conical hopper and a cover. The two ends of the conical hopper are respectively provided with a discharge port and a feed port. The diameter of the feed port is larger than the diameter of the discharge port. The cover is detachably connected to the feed port. The cover is provided with a first through hole, which matches the control rod. One end of the control rod is fixedly connected with a speed control disk. The cross-sectional area of ​​the speed control disk is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the discharge port. The end of the control rod provided with the speed control disk extends into the conical hopper, and the other end of the control rod extends from the first through hole to the conical hopper. Using a feeder for feeding can effectively reduce the dust generated during feeding, thereby protecting the operator from being injured by raw materials. The use of a feeder also reduces the workload of the staff and improves production efficiency.

[0004] Although this feeder can reduce the workload of workers and reduce dust, it is difficult to control the amount of feed for animals during use. Animals may not eat enough feed, which may also cause feed waste and is not conducive to completing quantitative feeding according to needs. As a result, the remaining feed in the animal feed tray is oxidized and deteriorated due to being left for too long. In order to avoid this phenomenon, it is very necessary to design a quantitative feeder. Utility Model Content

The present invention provides the following embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, it is a structural diagram of the quantitative feeder in this embodiment. The quantitative feeder in this embodiment includes a storage box 1, a mixing drum 2 is embedded in the top of the storage box 1, a quantitative conveying seat 3 is fixed to the bottom of the storage box 1, and a receiving hopper 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the quantitative conveying seat 3. A plurality of mounting grooves 5 are provided inside the quantitative conveying seat 3, and a transmission shaft 6 is rotatably connected to the mounting groove 5 through a bearing. A conveying roller 7 is coaxially provided on the surface of the transmission shaft 6, and the conveying roller 7 is matched with the mounting groove 5. A plurality of filling cavities 8 are equidistantly provided on the surface of the conveying roller 7, a plurality of feeding ports 10 are provided on the top of the quantitative conveying seat 3, and a plurality of discharging ports 11 are provided at the bottom of the storage box 1, and a plurality of guide grooves 9 are provided at the bottom of the storage box 1, and the guide grooves 9 are closely connected to the feeding port 10; in the process of quantitative feeding of animals During the process, the raw materials are introduced into the storage box 1 after being stirred and mixed by the mixing drum 2, and the feed is continuously stored in the storage box 1. When a certain amount of feed is stored, the feed enters the filling cavity 8 from the feed port 10 through the diversion of the guide trough 9. After the filling cavity 8 is filled with feed, the feed continues to accumulate in the storage box 1. Then, according to the amount of feed required, the transmission shaft 6 is controlled to rotate, and the conveying roller 7 is driven to rotate by the rotating transmission shaft 6. The conveying roller 7 rotates a certain angle, so that the filling cavity 8 filled with feed is turned to be connected with the discharge port 11, and the filled quantitative feed falls into the receiving hopper 4 from the discharge port 11, thereby controlling the amount of feed fed to the animals to ensure that the animals eat enough feed without causing feed waste, which is conducive to completing quantitative feeding as needed and preventing the remaining material in the animal feed tray from oxidizing and deteriorating due to being placed for too long.

[0028] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the feed port 10 is located above the discharge port 11, and the joints between the feed port 10 and the discharge port 11 and the filling cavity 8 match; a removable shell 12 is provided on the quantitative conveying seat 3, and a rotating motor 13 is installed inside the shell 12, and the output end of the rotating motor 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the transmission shaft 6, and the driving force is provided to the rotating transmission shaft 6 through the installed rotating motor 13.

[0029] like Figure 2 as well as Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, two groups of electric push rods 19 are installed on the outer surface of the receiving hopper 4, and the bottom of the receiving hopper 4 is connected to the feeding square cylinder 14. The inclined feeding square cylinder 14 is located between the two groups of electric push rods 19. The inner wall of the feeding square cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to two guide rods 15. A connecting rod 16 is slidably installed on the surface of the guide rod 15. A compression spring 17 is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 15, and one end of the compression spring 17 is fixed to one end of the connecting rod 16.

In order to prevent a large amount of dust or feed splashing at the feeding point, the electric push rod 19 is controlled to drive the receiving hopper 4 to lower, so that one end of the feeding square cylinder 14 is close to the animal feed tray; and the feed falling from the receiving hopper 4 slides down along the feeding square cylinder 14. When the feed slides to the bottom and collides with the buffer plate 18, the guide rod 15, connecting rod 16 and compression spring 17 are provided, and the buffer plate 18 is used to buffer the impact force generated by the feed, so that the feed slowly falls into the feed tray, reducing dust.

[0030] like Figure 6 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the structure inside the mixing drum 2 in this embodiment. In this embodiment, the interior of the mixing drum 2 is fixedly connected to a bracket 22, and a drive motor 23 is installed on the bracket 22.
