Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of livestock breeding technology, and in particular to a feed feeding device for livestock breeding. Background Technology
[0002] Livestock farming is the industry of raising and breeding livestock and poultry. Feeding is crucial in the breeding process. Feed provides livestock with comprehensive and balanced nutrition to meet their energy and material needs for growth, development and production. Without feed, livestock will not be able to grow normally and their production performance will decline. At the same time, feed can also ensure the health of livestock, improve their immunity and prevent the occurrence of diseases.
[0003] In livestock farming, feed feeding is divided into manual feeding and mechanical feeding. Existing feeding equipment for livestock mainly consists of feed cylinders, feed troughs, and dispensing structures. The dispensing structure dispenses the evenly mixed feed from the feed cylinders into the feed troughs for the livestock to eat. However, existing feeding equipment can only dispense pre-mixed feed and cannot be adapted to livestock of different ages and breeds. Because livestock at different ages have different nutritional needs, the nutritional ratios required by young, adult, and old livestock are different, and different breeds of livestock also have their own unique nutritional requirements. Therefore, this can lead to malnutrition or overnutrition in livestock, affecting their growth and development, production performance, and health status, and may even cause diseases, resulting in losses for farmers.
[0004] Therefore, a feed dispensing device for livestock breeding is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feed dispensing device for livestock farming to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A feed feeding device for livestock includes a base plate. Multiple feed storage bins are arranged on both sides of the top of the base plate along the front-to-back direction. Feed collection hoppers are arranged on both sides above the base plate, with the outer side of each hopper connected to the outer side of the feed storage bins on the same side. Feed trough frames are arranged on both sides of the top of the base plate, with feeding hoppers inclined on opposite sides of each feed trough frame. Each of the multiple feed storage bins has a conveying mechanism communicating with the feeding hopper on the same side, used to convey feed from the storage bins to the feeding hoppers. The bottom of each of the two feeding hoppers has a stirring mechanism for stirring the feed. The bottom of each of the two stirring mechanisms has a diversion mechanism along the front-to-back direction for conveying feed to the front and rear sides. Each of the two diversion mechanisms corresponds to the feeding hopper on the same side.
[0008] Preferably, the material conveying mechanism includes a cylinder, a connecting hopper, a motor, a drive shaft, and a spiral blade. The inner wall of the storage box is provided with a cylinder that penetrates the storage box and communicates with the collecting hopper. The inner wall of the storage box is provided with a connecting hopper whose lower end communicates with the cylinder. The cylinder is provided with a drive shaft. A spiral blade is fixedly sleeved on the drive shaft. The outer side of the storage box is provided with a motor whose output shaft is coaxially connected to one end of the drive shaft.
[0009] Preferably, the stirring mechanism includes a discharge cylinder, a vertical shaft, a second motor, and stirring blades. The discharge cylinder is fixedly connected to and communicates with the hopper. The discharge cylinder has a vertical shaft inside. The top of the discharge cylinder has a second motor whose output shaft is coaxially connected to the upper end of the vertical shaft. Stirring blades are evenly distributed on the vertical shaft.
[0010] Preferably, the diversion mechanism includes a rectangular cylinder, a horizontal shaft, two spiral blades, a motor, and diversion ports. The bottom of the discharge cylinder is provided with a rectangular cylinder along the front-to-back direction. The front inner wall of the rectangular cylinder is provided with a horizontal shaft. The rear side of the rectangular cylinder is provided with a motor whose output shaft is coaxially connected to the front end of the horizontal shaft. Two spiral blades are fixedly sleeved at both ends of the horizontal shaft. The two spiral blades rotate in opposite directions. The bottom of the rectangular cylinder is provided with multiple diversion ports equidistantly along the front-to-back direction.
[0011] Preferably, the end of the collecting hopper connected to the storage box is higher than the end of the collecting hopper connected to the discharge cylinder, and the top of the plurality of storage boxes is provided with a feeding port.
[0012] Preferably, the upper end of the trough frame is open, and an inner frame is placed inside it. The upper end of the inner frame is open, and multiple partitions are provided at equal intervals on its inner sidewall.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Feed is conveyed to the collection hopper through the feeding mechanism inside each storage bin according to the age and type of livestock. This allows for the formulation of multiple feed ratios based on the age and type of livestock. The various feeds then enter the mixing mechanism, where they are stirred to form a uniformly mixed feed. This mixed feed is then conveyed and discharged to the front and rear sides through a diversion mechanism. Finally, the mixed feed falls into the feeding hopper and is discharged into the feed trough frame, providing targeted feeding to meet the nutritional needs of livestock of different ages and types. This ensures balanced nutrition for livestock, promotes their growth and development, improves production performance and health, effectively prevents disease, and brings benefits to livestock farming.

[0025] In this embodiment, by Figure 1-5 Provided is a feed feeding device for livestock breeding. The present invention includes a base plate 1. Multiple storage boxes 21 are provided on both sides of the top of the base plate 1 along the front-back direction. Feed collection hoppers 22 are provided on both sides above the base plate 1. The outer side of the feed collection hoppers 22 is connected to the outer side of the storage boxes 21 on the same side. Feed trough frames 23 are provided on both sides of the top of the base plate 1. Feed hoppers 24 are inclined on opposite sides of the two feed trough frames 23. The interior of the multiple storage boxes 21 is provided with a conveying mechanism 3 that communicates with the feed collection hoppers 22 on the same side, for conveying the feed in the storage boxes 21 to the feed collection hoppers 22. The bottom of the two feed collection hoppers 22 is provided with a stirring mechanism 4 for stirring the feed. The bottom of the two stirring mechanisms 4 is provided with a diversion mechanism 5 along the front-back direction for conveying the feed to the front and back sides. The two diversion mechanisms 5 are corresponding to the feed hoppers 24 on the same side.
[0026] In this embodiment, multiple storage bins 21 on the same side can store various feeds. Depending on the age and type of livestock being fed, feed can be conveyed to the collection hopper 22 through the conveying mechanism 3 inside each storage bin 21. This allows for the formulation of various feeds according to the age and type of livestock. Finally, the various feeds enter the mixing mechanism 4 and are mixed to form a uniformly mixed feed. Then, the feed is conveyed and discharged to the front and rear sides through the diversion mechanism 5. Finally, the mixed feed falls into the feed hopper 24 and is discharged into the feed trough frame 23 to provide the necessary nutrition for the livestock. This ensures that the nutritional needs of livestock of different ages and types are met, guarantees balanced nutrition, promotes growth and development, improves production performance and health, effectively prevents disease, and brings benefits to livestock farming.
[0027] Preferably, in another embodiment of the present invention, the material conveying mechanism 3 includes a cylinder 31, a connecting hopper 32, a motor 33, a transmission shaft 34, and a spiral blade 35. The inner wall of the storage box 21 is provided with a cylinder 31 that penetrates the storage box 21 and communicates with the collecting hopper 22. The inner wall of the storage box 21 is provided with a connecting hopper 32 whose lower end communicates with the cylinder 31. The inside of the cylinder 31 is provided with a transmission shaft 34. A spiral blade 35 is fixedly sleeved on the transmission shaft 34. The outside of the storage box 21 is provided with a motor 33 whose output shaft is coaxially connected to one end of the transmission shaft 34.
[0028] In this embodiment, the single feed entering the storage bin 21 is held by the cylinder 31 and the connecting hopper 32. When feed needs to be discharged into the collection hopper 22, the motor 33 is started, and its output shaft drives the transmission shaft 34 and the spiral blade 35 to rotate. The rotating spiral blade 35 will produce axial thrust to transport the single feed entering the cylinder 31 to the inside of the collection hopper 22.
[0029] Preferably, as another embodiment of the present invention, the stirring mechanism 4 includes a discharge cylinder 41, a vertical shaft 42, a second motor 43, and stirring blades 44. The discharge cylinder 41, which communicates with the hopper 22, is fixedly connected to the hopper 22. The vertical shaft 42 is vertically arranged inside the discharge cylinder 41. The top of the discharge cylinder 41 is provided with a second motor 43 whose output shaft is coaxially connected to the upper end of the vertical shaft 42. Stirring blades 44 are evenly arranged on the vertical shaft 42.
[0030] In this embodiment, after multiple feeds are conveyed to the collection hopper 22, they flow together into the discharge cylinder 41. During this process, the motor 43 is started, and its output shaft drives the vertical shaft 42 and the stirring blades 44 to rotate, so that the stirring blades 44 can stir the multiple feeds, making the multiple feeds evenly mixed to form mixed feed for livestock to eat, ensuring the livestock's nutritional balance. Finally, the evenly mixed feed will be discharged from the discharge cylinder 41.
[0031] Preferably, as another embodiment of the present invention, the diversion mechanism 5 includes a rectangular cylinder 51, a horizontal shaft 52, a second spiral blade 53, a third motor 54, and diversion ports 55. The bottom of the discharge cylinder 41 is provided with a rectangular cylinder 51 along the front-rear direction. The front inner wall of the rectangular cylinder 51 is provided with a horizontal shaft 52. The rear side of the rectangular cylinder 51 is provided with a third motor 54 whose output shaft is coaxially connected to the front end of the horizontal shaft 52. Both ends of the horizontal shaft 52 are fixedly sleeved with second spiral blades 53. The rotation directions of the two second spiral blades 53 are opposite to each other. The bottom of the rectangular cylinder 51 is provided with a plurality of diversion ports 55 at equal intervals along the front-rear direction.
[0032] In this embodiment, after the mixed feed is discharged from the discharge cylinder 41, it enters the rectangular cylinder 51. At this time, the motor 54 is started, and its output shaft drives the horizontal shaft 52 to rotate. The spiral blades 53 at both ends of the horizontal shaft 52, which rotate in opposite directions, also rotate and generate an axial thrust to transport the feed to the front and rear sides. The feed entering the rectangular cylinder 51 is continuously transported to the front and rear sides by the two spiral blades 53. During this process, the mixed feed is discharged from multiple diversion ports 55 and falls into the feed hopper 24, and finally discharged into the feed trough frame 23 to feed the livestock.
[0033] Preferably, in another embodiment of the present invention, the end of the collecting hopper 22 connected to the storage box 21 is higher than the end of the collecting hopper 22 connected to the discharge cylinder 41, so as to ensure that the various feeds discharged into the collecting hopper 22 will be concentrated to one side and then discharged into the discharge cylinder 41. The top of the multiple storage boxes 21 is provided with a feed inlet 6. Opening the feed inlet 6 allows a single feed to be put into the storage box 21 for storage and standby.
[0034] Preferably, in another embodiment of the present invention, the upper end of the feed trough frame 23 is open, and an inner frame 7 is placed inside it to collect the feed that falls into the feed trough frame 23 for livestock consumption. This also facilitates the removal of the inner frame 7 by workers for cleaning. The upper end of the inner frame 7 is open, and multiple partitions 8 are evenly spaced on its inner sidewalls to separate the feed that falls into the inner frame 7.
[0035] Working principle: Multiple storage bins 21 on the same side can store various single feeds. Depending on the age and type of livestock, each single feed corresponds to a conveying mechanism 3 for transporting and discharging. The process is as follows: Motor 1 33 is started, driving the drive shaft 34 and spiral blade 1 35 to rotate. The rotating spiral blade 1 35 generates axial thrust, conveying the single feed entering the cylinder 31 to the inside of the collection hopper 22. The proportions of various feeds are then adjusted according to the age and type of livestock. Finally, they are collected and flow together into the discharge cylinder 41. Simultaneously, Motor 2 43 is started, driving the vertical shaft 42 and stirring blade 44 to rotate, allowing the stirring blade 44 to stir the various feeds, ensuring they are evenly mixed to form a... The mixed feed is finally discharged from the discharge cylinder 41 into the rectangular cylinder 51. At this time, the motor 54 is started, driving the horizontal shaft 52 to rotate. The spiral blades 53 at both ends of the horizontal shaft 52, which rotate in opposite directions, also rotate, generating an axial thrust to transport the feed forward and backward. The feed entering the rectangular cylinder 51 is continuously transported forward and backward by the two spiral blades 53. The mixed feed is discharged from multiple diversion ports 55 and falls into the feed hopper 24, and finally into the feed trough frame 23 to feed the livestock. This feeding is tailored to the nutritional needs of the livestock, meeting the nutritional requirements of different ages and species, ensuring balanced nutrition, promoting growth and development, improving production performance and health, effectively preventing disease, and bringing benefits to the breeding industry.
