Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry, specifically to an automatic water feeding device for sheep farming. Background Technology

[0002] In sheep farming, it is essential to provide sheep with ample drinking water to ensure the healthy growth of the flock.

[0003] Existing water feeding devices for sheep, such as the utility model patent with application number CN206808390U, disclose a water-saving trough for black goat farming. This trough includes a base plate, with a trough body and a vertical support fixed to the upper end of the base plate. The vertical support has a first fixing sleeve and a second fixing sleeve, with a water storage tank inserted between the second fixing sleeve and the first fixing sleeve. A water outlet pipe is located at the lower end of the water storage tank, extending into the trough body. This water-saving trough for black goat farming prevents water from flowing down the storage tank when the water in the trough is above the bottom of the water outlet pipe, thus maintaining a constant amount of water in the trough and providing a quantitative supply of water to prevent waste.

[0004] However, sheep often bring food scraps and feed into the water trough when they drink, and existing sheep watering devices do not have the function of cleaning up the scraps in the trough. As a result, food scraps soak in water can breed bacteria, which affects the health of the sheep. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic watering device for sheep farming, which can scoop up food residue from the water trough, thereby solving the defects mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] An automatic water feeding device for sheep farming includes a base plate. A long, narrow water trough is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate. A vertical frame, driven by a power mechanism and moving along the length of the water trough, is provided on the base plate. A rotating rod, driven by a power motor and rotating around its own axis, is provided on the vertical frame. The axis of the rotating rod extends along the width of the water trough. A mounting frame is fixedly installed on the rotating rod. The mounting frame has an arc-shaped portion at its bottom. The bottom wall of the water trough is arc-shaped and coaxial with the arc-shaped portion. Vertical portions extending upward are provided at both ends of the arc-shaped portion along the width of the water trough. The upper ends of the vertical portions are fixedly installed on the rotating rod. The lower end of the mounting frame extends into the water trough, and a retrieval net is provided inside the mounting frame.

[0008] As a further improvement, multiple fixing rings are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the mounting frame, and the retrieval net is connected to the multiple fixing rings by straps.

[0009] As a further improvement, the power mechanism includes a track box fixedly installed on the base plate, a slide rod extending along the length of the water tank fixedly installed inside the track box, the lower end of the upright frame slidably installed on the slide rod, and a lead screw driven by a drive motor is also provided inside the track box. The lead screw is arranged parallel to the slide rod, and the lower end of the upright frame is threadedly connected to the lead screw.

[0010] As a further improvement, a brush plate for cleaning the inner wall of the water tank is fixedly installed on the lower outer side of the mounting bracket, and the outer side of the brush plate is provided with bristles that contact the inner wall of the water tank.

[0011] As a further improvement, a waste box is fixedly installed on the bottom plate at one end of the water tank along its length.

[0012] As a further improvement, a water inlet pipe is provided at the top of one end of the water tank; a liquid level sensor is installed inside the water tank.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] 1. The power mechanism drives the upright to move along the length of the water tank. The upright drives the scooping net to intercept food residue floating in the water tank. Then, the power motor drives the scooping net to rotate to a horizontal state and scoop up the food residue, avoiding the growth of bacteria from a large amount of food residue soaking in the water.

[0015] 2. The motor drives the mounting frame to rotate to a vertical position.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the automatic water feeding device for sheep farming includes a base plate 1. Two support rods 2, arranged opposite each other, are welded to the top of the base plate 1. A water trough 3 with a top opening is fixed between the two support rods 2 by bolts. The water trough 3 is an elongated strip extending horizontally. A water inlet pipe 4 is located at the top right end of the water trough 3. The water inlet pipe 4 is connected to a water source via a pipeline, and a water pump is installed on the pipeline. A liquid level sensor 5 is also installed inside the water trough 3. Both the liquid level sensor 5 and the water pump are connected to a controller. The liquid level sensor 5 monitors the liquid level in the water trough 3. When the liquid level in the water trough 3 drops to a preset height, the controller starts the water pump to automatically add water to the water trough 3.

[0025] The base plate 1 is equipped with a vertical frame 6, which is driven by a power mechanism and moves left and right along the length of the water tank 3. Specifically, as shown in the figure... Figure 3As shown, the power mechanism includes a track box 7 fixedly installed on the base plate 1. The track box 7 is located behind the water tank 3, and the lower end of the upright 6 extends into the track box 7. A sliding rod 8 extending left and right along the length direction of the water tank 3 is fixedly installed in the track box 7 by bolts. The lower end of the upright 6 is slidably installed on the sliding rod 8, providing guidance for the left and right movement of the upright 6. The track box 7 is also equipped with a lead screw 10 driven by a drive motor 9. The lead screw 10 is arranged parallel to the sliding rod 8. One end of the lead screw 10 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the track box 7 through a bearing, and the other end is connected to the rotating shaft of the drive motor 9 through a coupling. The drive motor 9 is bolted to one end of the track box 7. The lower end of the upright 6 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 10. The drive motor 9 drives the lead screw 10 to rotate, thereby the lead screw 10 drives the upright 6 to move left and right along the sliding rod 8 along the length direction of the water tank 3.

[0026] A rotating rod 11, driven by a motor 22 and rotating around its own axis, is mounted on the support frame 6. The rotating rod 11 is located above the water tank 3, and its axis extends back and forth along the width of the water tank 3. Specifically, the motor 22 is bolted to the upper rear side of the support frame 6, and the rotating axis of the motor 22 passes forward through the support frame 6 and is connected to the rear end of the rotating rod 11 via a coupling. A mounting bracket 12 is fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 11. The mounting bracket 12 has an arc-shaped part 13 at the bottom. The bottom wall of the water tank 3 is arc-shaped and coaxial with the arc-shaped part 13. The arc-shaped part 13 has vertically extending parts 14 integrally formed at both the front and rear ends along the width of the water tank 3. The upper end of the vertical part 14 is provided with a mounting sleeve that matches the rotating rod 11. The mounting sleeve is fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 11 by bolts. The lower end of the mounting bracket 12 extends into the water tank 3, and a retrieval net 15 is provided inside the mounting bracket 12.

[0027] Initially, the mounting frame 12 is located at the left end of the water tank 3, and the mounting frame 12 remains vertical. At this time, the plane of the retrieval net 15 is perpendicular to the length direction of the water tank 3, and the lower end of the retrieval net 15 is submerged below the liquid surface of the water tank 3, while the upper end extends above the liquid surface of the water tank 3. When retrieving food residue from the water tank 3, the power mechanism first drives the upright frame 6 to move to the right along the length direction of the water tank 3. The upright frame 6 drives the mounting frame 12 and the retrieval net 15 to move to the right simultaneously, and the retrieval net 15 intercepts the food residue floating in the water tank 3. When the upright frame 6 moves the mounting frame 12 and the retrieval net 15 to near the right end of the water tank 3, the upright frame 6 stops moving. Then, the power motor 22 drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate 90 degrees counterclockwise. The rotating rod 11 drives the mounting frame 12 and the retrieval net 15 to rotate counterclockwise to a horizontal position. Figure 4 As shown, the horizontal mounting frame 12 and the retrieval net 15 are both moved above the water tank 3. As the retrieval net 15 rotates counterclockwise to a horizontal position, the food residue located on its right side is retrieved through the retrieval net 15.

[0028] A waste container 16 is fixedly installed on the bottom plate 1 at the left end of the water tank 3. After the scooping net 15 rotates to a horizontal position and scoops up the food residue in the water tank 3, the power mechanism drives the upright frame 6 to move to the left along the length of the water tank 3. The upright frame 6 then moves the mounting frame 12 and the scooping net 15 to above the waste container 16. Then, the power motor 22 drives the mounting frame 12 and the scooping net 15 to rotate clockwise, so that the side of the scooping net 15 containing food residue rotates downwards towards the waste container 16. Figure 5 As shown, the food scraps on the retrieval net 15 are poured into the waste container 16.

[0029] Multiple evenly distributed fixing rings 17 are welded to the inner wall of the mounting frame 12. The salvage net 15 is connected to the multiple fixing rings 17 by straps 18 so that the salvage net 15 can be removed for cleaning.

[0030] A brush plate 19 for cleaning the inner wall of the water tank 3 is fixedly installed on the lower outer side of the mounting frame 12. The brush plate 19 is in contact with the outer wall of the mounting frame 12, and the outer side of the brush plate 19 has bristles 20 that contact the inner wall of the water tank 3. The brush plate 19 can be fixedly connected to the mounting frame 12 with bolts so that the brush plate 19 can be disassembled and assembled according to the usage requirements. After the water tank 3 has been used for a long time, the brush plate 19 can be installed on the mounting frame 12, and the mounting frame 12 can be rotated to a vertical position by the power motor 22. Then, the power mechanism drives the upright frame 6 and the mounting frame 12 to move back and forth left and right along the length of the water tank 3. The mounting frame 12 drives the brush plate 19 to clean the inner wall of the water tank 3. A drain pipe 21 is provided at the bottom right end of the water tank 3. After opening the drain pipe 21, the sewage in the water tank 3 can be completely discharged.
