Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feed trough technology, and more specifically, to a feed trough for aquaculture that is easy to clean. Background Technology

[0002] Feed troughs are essential equipment for animal feeding, primarily used to store and distribute animal feed to ensure that animals receive sufficient nutrition as needed. Feed troughs typically consist of a support frame and a trough body. The support frame stabilizes the trough body, while the trough body stores feed for livestock to consume. During use, feed troughs need to be cleaned regularly to remove residual feed and dirt, preventing mold and bacterial growth. Since residual feed and dirt inside the feed trough will dry and stick to the surface, it is necessary to clean the feed trough regularly.

[0003] In related technologies, during the use of feed troughs, workers typically use media cleaning brushes or other cleaning tools to remove residual feed and dirt adhering to the surface of the feed trough before it can be used.

[0004] However, in the current use of feed troughs, since they are generally integrated and in relatively fixed positions, when workers use cleaning brushes or other cleaning tools to clean the feed troughs, they need to repeatedly clean and brush the surface of the feed troughs. Furthermore, due to the location of the feed troughs, it is inconvenient to brush and clean different parts of the surface, which affects the convenience and efficiency of cleaning the feed troughs.

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0030] Reference Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a feed trough for easy cleaning in aquaculture, including a support frame 1 and a trough cleaning mechanism. A support rod 2 is installed on the inner side of the support frame 1, and a trough 3 is installed on the top of the support frame 1. This provides a medium for users to simultaneously scrape and clean the residual feed and dirt attached to the inner wall of the trough 3, so that users can clean and remove dirt from the inner wall of the trough 3. This avoids the situation where it is difficult to perform simultaneous scraping and cleaning operations when using the trough 3, thus improving the convenience and efficiency of cleaning the trough 3.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-4 In a preferred embodiment, the tank cleaning mechanism includes a cleaning frame 4, which is movably connected to the top inside the tank 3. A rotating rod 5 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the cleaning frame 4. Rotating holes 6 are formed on both sides of the tank 3 and the support frame 1. The rotating rod 5 is located inside the rotating holes 6. A turntable 7 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating rod 5. A cleaning positioning mechanism is movably connected to the top outside the support frame 1. When the user rotates the cleaning frame 4, since the outer side of the cleaning frame 4 contacts the inner wall of the tank 3 and the tank 3 is semi-circular, as the user rotates the cleaning frame 4, the cleaning frame 4 scrapes and removes residual feed and dirt adhering to the inner wall of the tank 3. During this process, the rotating rod 5 follows the cleaning frame 4 in the rotating holes. The internal rotating mechanism 6, in conjunction with the turntable 7, rotatably connects the cleaning frame 4 and the support frame 1. The cleaning positioning mechanism includes a positioning frame 8, a positioning seat 9, and a positioning groove 10. The positioning frame 8 is movably connected to the top of the outside of the support frame 1, and the positioning seat 9 is fixedly connected to both sides of the inside of the positioning frame 8. The positioning groove 10 is opened at the bottom of the inside of the positioning seat 9. The top of the cleaning frame 4 is located inside the positioning groove 10, which provides a stable medium for positioning the cleaning frame 4 and the tank 3. This allows the user to stably operate the cleaning frame 4 and the tank 3 when they are not being cleaned, avoiding the situation where the cleaning frame 4 and the tank 3 are difficult to position during use. Therefore, the positioning convenience of the cleaning frame 4 and the tank 3 is improved.

[0032] Reference Figures 3-4 In a preferred embodiment, a connecting cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to the top inside the support frame 1, and a connecting frame 12 is movably connected inside the connecting cylinder 11. The top of the connecting frame 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning frame 8, which allows for translational connection between the positioning frame 8 and the support frame 1, preventing the positioning frame 8 from separating from the support frame 1 during use. This improves the connection effect between the positioning frame 8 and the support frame 1. Both the connecting frame 12 and the positioning frame 8 have lifting holes 13 at their tops, and lifting columns 14 are movably connected inside the lifting holes 13. The top of the lifting columns 14 extends to the outside of the positioning frame 8, allowing for positioning between the positioning frame 8 and the support frame 1 through the connecting frame 12 and the connecting cylinder 11. This prevents the positioning frame 8 from being difficult to position stably during use, thus improving the positioning stability and convenience of the positioning frame 8.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, a stabilizing port 15 is provided inside the connecting frame 12, and a stabilizing block 16 is movably connected to the top of the stabilizing port 15. The outer side of the stabilizing block 16 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lifting hole 13, which can stabilize the connection between the lifting column 14 and the lifting hole 13 and prevent it from shifting. This avoids the lifting column 14 from separating from the lifting hole 13 during use, thus improving the stability of the lifting column 14. The bottom of the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 11 is provided with an insertion hole 17 that communicates with the lifting hole 13. The bottom of the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 11 is provided with a misalignment hole 18 located outside the insertion hole 17. This provides space for the lifting column 14 to insert and position the positioning frame 8, and also provides space for the lifting column 14 to misalign and insert the positioning frame 8 after it has moved. This avoids the situation where it is difficult to insert and position the positioning frame 8 when the lifting column 14 is in use, thus improving the insertion and positioning effect and flexibility of the lifting column 14.

[0034] Reference Figures 1-4 In a preferred embodiment, by providing sliding grooves 19 on both sides of the connecting frame 12, and movably connecting sliders 20 to the outer side of the inner side of the sliding grooves 19, and fixing the outer side of the sliders 20 to the inner wall of the connecting cylinder 11, the sliding connection between the connecting frame 12 and the connecting cylinder 11 can be limited, preventing the connecting frame 12 from separating from the connecting cylinder 11 when sliding, thus improving the connection effect between the connecting frame 12 and the connecting cylinder 11. A cleaning plate 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom inside the support frame 1, and the top of the cleaning plate 21 contacts the bottom of the tank 3. As the tank 3 rotates, it can scrape and clean the dirt attached to the outer surface of the tank 3, avoiding the situation where it is difficult to clean the outer surface of the tank 3 during use, thus improving the cleaning convenience of the tank 3.

[0035] Specifically, the working process or principle of this easy-to-clean feed trough for aquaculture is as follows: During use, the lifting column 14 is moved upwards by hand, disengaging from the insertion hole 17 and entering the inner wall of the lifting hole 13. At this time, the stabilizing block 16 moves inside the stabilizing opening 15, providing a movable connection between the lifting column 14 and the lifting hole 13 to prevent detachment. Then, the positioning frame 8 is held by hand, driving the positioning seat 9 and the positioning groove 10 to move outwards, causing the cleaning frame 4 to disengage from the positioning groove 10. At this time, the connecting frame 12 follows the positioning frame 8, moving inside the connecting cylinder 11, providing a translational connection between the positioning frame 8 and the support frame 1. Simultaneously, the lifting column 14 moves with the positioning frame 8 through the connecting frame 12 and the lifting hole 13. When the bottom of the lifting hole 13 aligns with the misalignment hole 18, the lifting column 14 moves downwards under its own weight, entering the misalignment hole 18, providing a misaligned insertion and positioning between the moved positioning frame 8 and the support frame 1, and stabilizing the positioning frame 8 and the positioning seat 9 in the trough body 3. At the top, the cleaning rack 4 is used to block and stabilize the tank 3 and the support frame 1. Then, the cleaning rack 4 is rotated by hand. Since the outer side of the cleaning rack 4 is in contact with the inner wall of the tank 3 and the tank 3 is semi-circular, as the user rotates the cleaning rack 4, the cleaning rack 4 scrapes and removes the residual feed and dirt attached to the inner wall of the tank 3. During this process, the rotating rod 5 follows the cleaning rack 4 and rotates inside the rotating hole 6, cooperating with the turntable 7 to rotate and connect the cleaning rack 4 and the support frame 1. After the inner wall of the tank 3 is cleaned, the lifting column 14 is moved upward to disengage from the misalignment hole 18, and the positioning frame 8 is moved to drive the positioning seat 9 to move outward and separate from the tank 3. Then, the tank 3 is rotated by hand. At this time, the cleaning plate 21 scrapes and cleans the dirt attached to the outer surface of the tank 3 during the rotation. At the same time, the rotating hole 6 cooperates with the rotating rod 5 to rotate and support the tank 3 and the support frame 1, ensuring the stability of the tank 3 during rotation and cleaning.
