The bottom of the storage bin 1 is rotatably connected to a rotating tube 12, a feeding device 13 is installed at the bottom of the rotating tube 12, a feeding tray 14 is installed inside the feeding device 13, and the feeding tray 14 is provided with evenly distributed feeding grooves 15. The feeding device 13 A first motor 16 is installed on the side of the material dispensing device 13, a discharge pipe 17 is provided at the bottom of the material dispensing device 13, a main control unit 2, a timer 19, and a speaker 27 are installed on the side of the bracket 4, and a third motor 18 is installed on the bottom of the material storage bin 1 through a mounting bracket. The output end of the third motor 18 is connected to the gear 26, and a gear ring 25 is sleeved on the outer side of the rotating tube 12. The gear ring 25 and the gear 26 are engaged with each other. A stirring and dredging device is installed inside the material storage bin 1, and the side of the material storage bin 1 is also connected to a spiral elevator 24.

[0031] The device is provided with a partition 6 that can be adjusted in position. When adjusting the position of the partition 6, the partition 6 is slid inside the feeding tray 5. After the adjustment is completed, the locking screw 9 is turned by the knob 11 to drive the clamping plate 10 to move, so that the clamping plate 10 cooperates with the clamping seat 8 to firmly clamp the feeding tray 5, thereby firmly fixing the partition 6 on the feeding tray 5, and the feeding tray 5 can be isolated into several independent feeding spaces. At the same time, the size of each feeding space can be adjusted independently, so that the feeding tray 5 and the partition 6 cooperate to form feeding spaces of different sizes to provide food for pigs of different sizes. Large pigs can only enter the large feeding space to eat, and cannot enter the small feeding space to compete with the piglets for food, thereby ensuring that the piglets can also eat normally and in sufficient amounts.

[0032] When it is time to eat, the gear 26 is driven to rotate by the third motor 18, and the gear 26 drives the gear ring 25 to rotate together with the rotating tube 12, thereby driving the feeding device 13 to move to the top of each feeding space in turn, and the feeding disc 14 is driven to rotate by the first motor 16. After the feed in the storage bin 1 falls into the rotating tube 12, it enters the feeding device 13 and is filled into the feeding trough 15. The rotating feeding disc 14 drives the feed in the feeding trough 15 to move to the top of the discharge pipe 17, and the feed is discharged into the feeding space through the discharge pipe 17. The amount of feed input can be accurately controlled by the fixed space of the feeding trough 15 and the number of rotations of the feeding disc 14. Furthermore, the amount of feed input can be controlled according to the size of the pig corresponding to the size of the feeding space, thereby relatively accurately and reasonably controlling the pig's food intake.

[0033] After the feed is delivered to each feeding space, the speaker 27 can be controlled to turn on to attract the pigs to come and eat by prompting. The device can also drive the stirring paddle 22 and the screw shaft 23 to rotate through the second motor 21, which can prevent the feed from clumping in the storage bin 1 and prevent the feed from clogging the rotating tube 12, thereby ensuring the smoothness of feed delivery.

A clamping plate 10 is rotatably installed on one end of the locking screw 9, and a knob 11 is provided at the other end of the locking screw 9.

[0037] Slide the partition 6 inside the feeding tray 5. After the adjustment is completed, turn the locking screw 9 through the knob 11 to drive the clamping plate 10 to move, so that the clamping plate 10 cooperates with the clamping seat 8 to firmly clamp the feeding tray 5, thereby firmly fixing the partition 6 on the feeding tray 5.

[0038] An output end of the first motor 16 is connected to the material digging plate 14 .

[0039] When the first motor 16 is running, it can drive the feeding plate 14 to rotate to output the feed.

[0040] The stirring and dredging device includes a motor mounting frame 20 installed inside the storage bin 1, a second motor 21 is provided on the top of the motor mounting frame 20, the output shaft of the second motor 21 is connected to a stirring paddle 22, and a screw shaft 23 is connected to the bottom of the stirring paddle 22.

[0041] The second motor 21 drives the stirring paddle 22 and the screw shaft 23 to rotate, thereby preventing the feed in the storage bin 1 from clumping and preventing the feed from clogging the rotating tube 12, thereby ensuring smooth feed delivery.

[0042] The working principle and use process of the present invention are as follows: when the device is used, the feed is lifted upward by the spiral elevator 24 and transported to the storage bin 1 for storage. The feeding time is set by the main control unit 2 and controlled by the timer 19. The device is provided with a partition 6 that can be adjusted in position, so that the feeding tray 5 can be separated into several independent feeding spaces. At the same time, the size of each feeding space can be adjusted independently, so that the feeding tray 5 and the partition 6 can form feeding spaces of different sizes to provide different sizes of pigs for feeding. When the pigs are fed in a large feeding space, they can only eat in the large feeding space, and thus cannot enter the small feeding space to compete with the pigs for food, ensuring that the pigs can also eat normally and in sufficient quantity. When adjusting the position of the partition 6, the partition 6 is slid inside the feeding tray 5. After the adjustment is completed, the locking screw 9 is rotated by the knob 11 to drive the clamping plate 10 to move, so that the clamping plate 10 cooperates with the clamping seat 8 to firmly clamp the feeding tray 5, thereby firmly fixing the partition 6 on the feeding tray 5. When it is time to eat, the gear 26 is driven to rotate by the third motor 18, and the gear 26 is driven to rotate by the gear The wheel 26 drives the gear ring 25 to rotate together with the rotating tube 12, thereby driving the material-digging device 13 to move to the top of each feeding space in turn, and the first motor 16 drives the material-digging plate 14 to rotate. After the feed in the storage bin 1 falls into the rotating tube 12, it enters the material-digging device 13 and is filled into the material-digging trough 15. The rotating material-digging plate 14 drives the feed in the material-digging trough 15 to move to the top of the discharge pipe 17, and the feed is discharged into the feeding space through the discharge pipe 17. The feed can be adjusted by the fixed space of the material-digging trough 15 and the number of rotations of the material-digging plate 14. The amount of feed put in can be precisely controlled. Furthermore, the amount of feed put in can be controlled according to the size of the pig corresponding to the size of the feeding space, so as to control the pig's food intake relatively accurately and reasonably. After the feed is put in to each feeding space, the speaker 27 can be controlled to turn on to attract the pigs to come and eat by prompting. The device can also drive the stirring paddle 22 and the screw shaft 23 to rotate through the second motor 21, which can avoid the feed in the storage bin 1 from clumping and the feed from clogging the rotating tube 12, thereby ensuring the smoothness of feed putting in.
