Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chicken farming equipment technology, specifically to a multi-head uniform feeding bin for chicken cages. Background Technology
[0002] Chicken cages are chicken pens or cages used for raising fattening chickens. Chicken cages allow for high-density rearing of poultry, saving a lot of space compared to free-range farming. Centralized management can also save energy and resources and reduce the incidence of poultry diseases. To facilitate the addition of chicken feed to the feed troughs inside the chicken cages, feed bins are often installed on the cages to enable rapid feeding, improve feeding efficiency, and reduce the workload of workers.
[0003] The prior art discloses an automatic chicken cage feeder with publication number CN210406655U, including a mounting frame, a storage bin on the mounting frame, a collection trough on the lower side of the mounting frame, a discharge port on one side of the mounting frame with a stepped, inclined distribution of the discharge port, a conveying pipe at the other end of the discharge port, and the other end of the conveying pipe connected to the storage bin, a sleeve between the discharge port and the conveying pipe, and a conveying shaft arranged concentrically within the sleeve, a rotary motor at one end of the conveying shaft, and the conveying shaft being rotatably connected to the sleeve via the rotary motor, the surface of the conveying shaft having a grooved structure. In this automatic chicken cage feeder, the storage bin is connected to the discharge port via the conveying pipe, and the conveying shaft is driven by the rotary motor. This allows the conveying shaft to evenly discharge material when rotating, making it more convenient to use and providing more uniform feeding.
[0004] When the above-mentioned utility model is used, it realizes multi-head feeding of multi-layer chicken cages through multiple feeding pipes. However, each feeding pipe has a feeding shaft that needs to be equipped with a separate rotary motor for driving. Setting up multiple rotary motors not only increases the manufacturing cost of the device and the power consumption during use, but also makes the wiring and other arrangements more complicated, so its practicality is relatively average.

[0014] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a multi-head uniform feeding bin for chicken cages, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] (1) This utility model is provided with a storage bin, a feeding hopper, a feeding sleeve, and a feeding roller. Before use, chicken feed is poured into the inner cavity of the storage bin for storage. Four feeding hoppers are evenly fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the storage bin, and a feeding sleeve is connected to the bottom end of each feeding hopper. A discharge square tube is connected to the bottom end of the feeding sleeve. A driven shaft is installed in the center of the inner cavity of the feeding sleeve, and a feeding roller is fixedly installed on the driven shaft. Several feeding grooves are evenly opened on the feeding roller. On the other hand, a mounting frame is fixedly installed on one side of the top surface of the fixed base plate, and the mounting frame has openings on it. The device features a movable groove with a centrally located mounting slide. A drive screw is installed within the mounting slide, with one end connected to the output of a servo motor.

This achieves multi-head uniform feeding of multi-layer chicken cages. As a result, a multi-head uniform feeding bin for chicken cages can achieve automatic rotation of multiple feeding rollers when the drive screw drives the storage bin to move. There is no need to install a separate rotary motor, which not only reduces the manufacturing cost of the device and the power consumption during use, but also makes it more convenient to install and use, and more practical.

[0035] Working principle: This utility model is equipped with a storage bin 5, a feeding hopper 7, a feeding sleeve 24, and a feeding roller 16. Before use, chicken feed is poured into the inner cavity of the storage bin 5 for storage. Four feeding hoppers 7 are evenly fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the storage bin 5, and the bottom end of the feeding hopper 7 is connected to the feeding sleeve 24. The bottom end of the feeding sleeve 24 is connected to the discharge square tube 9. A driven shaft 15 is installed in the center of the inner cavity of the feeding sleeve 24. The feeding roller 16 is fixedly installed on the driven shaft 15, and several feeding grooves 25 are evenly opened on the feeding roller 16. On the other hand, a mounting frame 2 is fixedly installed on one side of the top surface of the fixed base plate 1. The mounting frame 2 has a movable groove 3, and the top surface of the movable groove 3 has a mounting slide groove 17. A drive screw 20 is installed in the mounting groove 17, and one end of the drive screw 20 is connected to the output end of the servo motor 10. A connecting block 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the storage bin 5, and a mounting slider 18 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the connecting block 4. The mounting slider 18 is fitted into the mounting groove 17, and a screw sleeve 19 is fixedly installed inside the mounting slider 18. The drive screw 20 is threaded into the screw sleeve 19. Therefore, when the servo motor 10 drives the drive screw 20 to rotate, it can drive the connecting block 4 and the storage bin 5 to move along the mounting groove 17. On the other hand, an extension frame 11 is fixedly installed on one side of the storage bin 5, and a drive shaft 12 is installed on the extension frame 11. A mounting gear 23 is fixedly installed on one end of the drive shaft 12. An installation plate 21 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the active trough 3, and a fixed toothed plate 22 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the installation plate 21. The fixed toothed plate 22 meshes with the installation gear 23. Therefore, when the storage bin 5 moves, the drive shaft 12 can be rotated through the fixed toothed plate 22 and the installation gear 23. On the other hand, four drive bevel gears 13 are evenly fixedly installed on the drive shaft 12, and four driven shafts 15 are fixedly installed with driven bevel gears 14 at one end. The driven bevel gears 14 mesh with the drive bevel gears 13. Therefore, the drive shaft 12 can drive the four driven shafts 15 to rotate simultaneously. When the driven shafts 15 drive the feeding roller 16 to rotate, the chicken feed falling into the feeding trough 25 can rotate with the feeding roller 16 and be discharged to the chicken cage through the discharge square pipe 9. The feed trough is filled with feed, thus achieving uniform feeding from multiple ends of the multi-layer chicken cages. This allows for the automatic rotation of multiple feeding rollers 16 when the drive screw 20 moves the storage bin 5, eliminating the need for a separate rotary motor. This not only reduces manufacturing costs and power consumption but also makes installation and use more convenient and practical. Furthermore, this invention includes a feeding hopper 7 and a cover plate 6. As described above, this device can simultaneously feed multiple layers of chicken cages, improving work efficiency. When a layer of chicken cages is empty, the worker can place the cover plate 6 on the support base 8 fixedly installed on the corresponding feeding hopper 7 before pouring chicken feed into the storage bin 5, thus sealing the feeding hopper 7.This design prevents chicken feed from entering the feed hopper 7 during feeding and even distribution, allowing for adjustments based on actual feeding conditions, making it more flexible and practical.
