Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of animal husbandry equipment, and particularly relates to a feeding device for animal husbandry. Background Art
[0002] Animal husbandry is a production sector that utilizes the physiological functions of domesticated animals such as livestock and poultry, or wild animals such as deer, musk deer, foxes, minks, otters, and quails, through artificial breeding and reproduction, to transform plant energy such as forage and feed into animal energy, in order to obtain livestock products such as meat, eggs, milk, wool, cashmere, hides, silk, and medicinal herbs. Different from self-sufficient livestock breeding, the main characteristics of animal husbandry are centralization, scale, and profit-making as the production purpose.
[0003] In animal husbandry, feeding devices are indispensable equipment. Existing feeding devices usually directly use a cement trough, stainless steel trough or plastic trough, which is too simple and has a single function. Every time feeding, the staff directly pours the feed into the trough. In winter, due to the low temperature, the feed in the trough will quickly cool down. Eating cold feed will have an adverse effect on the health and growth of the livestock.
[0004] In view of this, the inventors conducted in-depth research on the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, and thus came up with this case. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a feeding device for animal husbandry, which prevents the feed from cooling down quickly in winter by feeding the feed in the heat-insulating box into the feeding trough in intervals.
[0006] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solutions adopted by this utility model are as follows:
[0007] A feeding device for animal husbandry includes a trough body and an insulation box body at the top of the trough body, the lower part of the insulation box body is provided with a feeding channel connected to the trough body; the feeding channel is provided with a feeding mechanism for feeding the trough body at intervals; the feeding mechanism includes a feeding roller rotatably connected to the feeding channel and a driving assembly installed on the outer wall of the insulation box body to drive the feeding roller to rotate, the feeding roller is formed with a feeding trough extending along the axial direction of the feeding roller, and the width of the feeding trough gradually decreases from the outside to the inside along the radial direction of the feeding roller.
[0008] Furthermore, the drive assembly includes a reduction motor fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the thermal insulation box, a first pulley fixedly mounted on the rotary shaft of the discharge roller, a second pulley fixedly mounted on the output shaft of the reduction motor, and a timing belt mounted on the first and second pulleys. The flexible connection between the timing belt and the discharge roller can extend the service life of the reduction motor.
[0009] Furthermore, the width of the trough body is at least twice the width of the feeding channel, so that enough space can be reserved for livestock to eat.
[0010] Furthermore, the trough body is provided with a plurality of partitions distributed at equal intervals along the length direction of the trough body, so as to separate the trough body into a plurality of feeding positions by the partitions, thereby preventing livestock from competing for food.
[0011] Furthermore, the thermal insulation box has a lid hingedly connected to the box; the lid is provided with a cleaning mechanism comprising a spray pipe and a hose. The spray pipe is provided with a plurality of high-pressure nozzles directed toward the inner wall of the thermal insulation box. One end of the hose is connected to the spray pipe, and the other end passes through the lid and is connected to a water pump. The cleaning mechanism can be used to clean the thermal insulation box to prevent bacterial growth.
[0012] Furthermore, a cylinder is provided on the box cover to drive the spray pipe to move up and down, a connecting rod is formed on the top of the spray pipe, and the piston rod of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the connecting rod. By driving the spray pipe up and down by the cylinder, the cleaning effect of the insulation box body is better.
[0013] Furthermore, a scraper is slidably mounted within the trough body, engaging the inner wall of the trough body. Two guide rods are formed on one side of the scraper and extend through the side wall of the trough body. The ends of the two guide rods are connected by a pull rod. A drainage pipe is provided on the side of the trough body near the pull rod. The scraper can scrape away any residual feed on the inner wall of the trough body and discharge it through the drainage pipe.
[0014] Furthermore, a sealing strip is provided on the side of the scraper that is in contact with the inner wall of the trough body. The sealing strip can enable the scraper to scrape the inner wall of the trough body more cleanly.
[0015] After adopting the above structure, the present invention relates to a feeding device for animal husbandry. Compared with the prior art, when feeding, the feed is first poured into the insulation box, and then the feed in the insulation box is discharged into the trough body in an intermittent manner by using the discharge mechanism. The amount of feed entering the trough body each time is small. Whenever the livestock quickly finishes the feed in the trough body, the discharge mechanism discharges the next round of feed into the trough body. In this way, it can be ensured that the feed always maintains a certain temperature when the livestock is eating, and the livestock is prevented from eating cold feed.
