[0018] The technical scheme in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described in the following by combining the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model, obviously, the described embodiment only is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all the embodiment.

[0019] It should be noted that all the directionality indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, …) in the embodiment of the utility model are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement condition, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the drawings), if the specific posture changes, the directionality indications also change accordingly.

[0020] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this utility model is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

[0021] In the description of the embodiments, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connect," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or a connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0022] Example 1:

[0023] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the enclosed feed trough-type breeding chicken feeding device in this embodiment includes a feed trough 1, a conveyor chain 2, a grid 3, a protective cover 4, and a drive mechanism. The conveyor chain 2 is set inside the feed trough 1 and driven by a motor. The grid 3 is set above the feed trough 1 to separate the breeding chickens, so that each chicken is in one grid when feeding. The protective cover 2 is movably set above the feed trough 1 and located inside the grid 3. The drive mechanism is set above the grid 3 through a bracket 5 and is connected to the protective cover 4 through transmission. The drive mechanism can drive the protective cover 4 to move up and down, thereby covering the conveyor chain 2.

[0024] like Figures 3-4 As shown, the drive mechanism includes a drive motor 6, two parallel drive shafts 7, and a connecting rope 8. The drive motor 6 is located on one side of the bracket 5 and is connected to one of the drive shafts 7. Multiple first gears 9 are spaced apart at corresponding positions on the two drive shafts 7. A second gear 10 meshes between each pair of first gears 9. The second gear 10 is rotatably connected to the top of the bracket 5.

[0025] Each drive shaft 7 is provided with multiple winding shafts 11 at intervals. The upper end of the connecting rope 8 is wound and connected to the winding shaft 11, and the lower end of the connecting rope 8 is connected to the protective cover 4.

[0026] The drive motor 6 drives one of the transmission shafts 7 to rotate, and under the meshing action of the first gear 9 and the second gear 10, it drives the other transmission shaft 7 to rotate synchronously and in the same direction, thereby realizing the synchronous winding and unwinding of the connecting rope 8, so as to drive the protective cover 4 to rise and fall.

[0027] Example 2:

[0028] like Figure 5As shown, the trough closed type breeder feeding device in the embodiment, the trough 1 and the conveying chain 2 constitute the annular material line structure in the way of head-to-tail, and each of the junctions of the adjacent two conveying chains 2 is provided with a corner feeder 12. Among them, the corner feeder 12 can adopt the prior art in the field, such as the corner feeder for feed conveying line disclosed in patent CN218520446U, or the corner wheel for conveying feed disclosed in patent CN209080724U, and the like.

[0029] One of the troughs 1 is provided with a hopper 13 above it, which is used to put feed on the conveying chain 2.

[0030] When the utility model feeds, the protective cover 4 covers above the conveying chain 2, and the breeder feeds when the conveying chain 2 stops running, and the protective cover 4 is lifted upward through the driving mechanism, so that the breeder can feed in the state that the conveying chain 2 is stationary, thereby avoiding that the conveying chain 2 injures the breeder, and when not feeding, the conveying chain 2 can be covered by the protective cover 4, and foreign matters are avoided to contaminate the feed.

[0031] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not used to limit the utility model, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. In addition, the technical solutions of each embodiment can be combined with each other, but it must be based on that a person skilled in the art can realize; when the combination of technical solutions appears mutual contradiction or cannot be realized, it should be considered that the combination of technical solutions does not exist, and is not within the protection scope required by the utility model.
