[0002] Chinese Patent Document No.: CN221598887U, Patent Title: An Automatic Feeding Livestock Shed, which can automatically feed livestock, saving staff time and effort. Livestock excrement falls through a wire mesh onto the top of a guide plate, and then slides through a guide trough into the excrement collection box for collection, making it convenient for staff to handle livestock excrement.

[0003] While the aforementioned patent enables automatic feeding, its automatic feeding device relies solely on the gravity of the feed pellets to discharge them from the feed storage tank. Since there is friction between the feed pellets, and when pellets or soft, mushy feed are compressed inside the tank, discharge becomes difficult. Furthermore, the feed is highly susceptible to moisture, which can cause clumping and block the discharge pipe, further hindering discharge. Livestock excrement is mostly sticky; while the inclined guide plate facilitates collection, a significant amount of excrement still adheres to the top of the guide plate, making it difficult to clean. Utility Model Content

The first rotating rod and the pusher plate can drive the feed to be discharged from the storage box. At the same time, when the pusher plate rotates, it can also cooperate with the inner wall of the storage box to break up the clumps of feed, making it easier for the feed to be discharged. The lifting plate cooperates with the rotating cam to make the lifting plate reciprocate within a small range, thereby lifting and breaking up the feed, so that the feed in the storage box can be squeezed and broken up to reduce the phenomenon of feed clumping.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an automatic feeding livestock shed, including a breeding cage mechanism, an automatic feeding device, and an automatic watering device, wherein a feeding trough and a water trough are fixedly installed on both sides of the breeding cage mechanism;

Detailed Implementation

[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0022] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 This utility model provides an automatically fed livestock shed, which includes a cage mechanism 11, an automatic feeding device, and an automatic watering device. The cage mechanism 11 restricts the movement range of livestock, while the automatic feeding and watering devices automatically add feed and water, reducing the labor intensity of workers. A feed trough 10 and a water trough 9 are fixedly installed on both sides of the cage mechanism 11, facilitating the storage of feed and water for easy access by livestock. A feeding port 3 is located above the storage tank 1 of the automatic feeding device, allowing for convenient feed addition. A discharge port is located below the storage tank 1, discharging the feed from the storage tank 1. An inclined discharge pipe 2 is located at the discharge port, allowing the discharged feed to be easily guided into the feed trough 10. The inclined design of the discharge pipe 2 facilitates the movement of the feed within the pipe under gravity.

[0023] A first rotating rod 19 is rotatably connected to the bottom inner side of the storage box 1. Several pusher plates 20 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the first rotating rod 19. A first driver 18 is provided at one end of the first rotating rod 19. The first driver 18 can drive the first rotating rod 19 to rotate, thereby driving the pusher plates 20 to rotate. The rotation of the pusher plates 20 can drive the feed between the two pusher plates 20 to move towards the discharge port. At the discharge port, the pusher plates 20 are tilted, and the feed slides out of the discharge port under its own gravity. When the clumps of large feed enter the range of the pusher plates 20, when the pusher plates 20 rotate to a certain position, the large feed can be crushed by the pusher plates 20 and the inner wall of the storage box 1, making it easy to discharge.

[0024] The other end of the first rotating rod 19 is fixedly connected to the first sprocket 24. The inner wall of the storage box 1 is rotatably connected to the top of the lifting plate 21. A second rotating rod 22 with several cams 23 is provided between the lifting plate 21 and the storage box 1. The second rotating rod 22 is parallel to the first rotating rod 19 and is rotatably connected to the storage box 1. One end of the second rotating rod 22 is fixedly connected to the second sprocket 26. The second sprocket 26 and the first sprocket 24 are driven by a chain 25. When the first rotating rod 19 rotates to discharge material, the second rotating rod 22 rotates under the cooperation of the first sprocket 24, the second sprocket 26, and the chain 25. The rotation of the second rotating rod 22 drives the cams 23 to rotate. The lifting plate 21 can be pushed to rotate a certain angle. The cam 23 and the extrusion force of the feed can make the lifting plate 21 reciprocate at a certain angle. All the cams 23 are the same size and the installation angle above the second rotating rod 22. The rotation of the lifting plate 21 can lift the feed and prevent the feed in the upper layer of the storage box 1 from clumping due to prolonged stillness. At the same time, the lifting plate 21 can also cooperate with the inner wall of the storage box 1 to crush the clumped feed. The feed that enters between the lifting plate 21 and the side wall of the storage box 1 can enter the pushing range of the pusher plate 20 through the gap between the cams 23 and then be discharged from the storage box 1.

[0025] See Figure 1 , Figure 5 Furthermore, the breeding cage mechanism 11 of this utility model is provided with several feeding holes 12 on both sides, which are only for the heads of livestock to pass through. The feed trough 10 and water trough 9 are located at the feeding holes 12 on both sides of the outside of the breeding cage. The feeding holes 12 are designed to allow the livestock to easily enter the feed trough 10 or water trough 9 to eat. The location of the feed trough 10 and water trough 9 outside the breeding cage can prevent the livestock from knocking over the feed trough 10 or water trough 9 and also avoid waste. The bottom surface of the breeding cage mechanism 11 is a grid mesh 14. Support plates 17 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the breeding cage mechanism 11. An inclined sewage discharge plate 16 is provided below the grid mesh 14. The sewage discharge plate 16 is fixedly connected to the support plates 17. The grid mesh 14 can provide support for the feet of livestock and facilitate the discharge of manure. The manure enters the sewage discharge plate 16 through the holes in the grid mesh 14. The inclined sewage discharge plate 16 allows the manure to slide down under its own gravity, which is convenient for manure collection.

[0026] See Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6Furthermore, a scraper 15 is provided above the sewage discharge plate 16 of this utility model. A connecting rod 29 is fixedly connected above the scraper 15. Screw nuts 28 are fixedly connected to both ends of the connecting rod 29. Each screw nut 28 is equipped with a matching screw 8. Both ends of the screw 8 are rotatably connected to the support plate 17. Each screw 8 is equipped with a second driver 27 to drive its rotation. Both second drivers 27 are fixedly connected to the support plate 17. The screw 8 is parallel to the sewage discharge plate 16. The second drivers 27 can... The screw 8 is driven to rotate, and the screw nut 28 moves linearly along the screw 8, which in turn causes the scraper 15 to move linearly to scrape off the feces adhering to the drain plate 16, preventing the feces adhering to the drain plate 16 from accumulating and becoming difficult to clean. The screw 8 is located on the outside of the support plate 17 to prevent feces from adhering to the screw 8. The support plate 17 has a long strip-shaped through hole for the connecting rod 29 to move, preventing the connecting rod 29 from interfering with the support plate 17. The support plate 17 also prevents feces from being discharged from both sides of the drain plate 16. The automatic water filling device includes a water storage tank 5 and a water pump 6. The water pump 6 transports water from the water storage tank 5 to the water tank 9 through a water pipe 7. The water storage tank 5 can store water, and the water pump 6 provides power for the water inside the water storage tank 5 to move to the water tank 9. The breeding cage mechanism 11 is equipped with a door 13, and a ladder 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the grid mesh 14 at the location of the door 13. The door 13 and the ladder 4 make it convenient for workers to enter the breeding cage mechanism 11 for cleaning.

[0027] In summary, this utility model provides an automatic feeding livestock shed, including a cage mechanism, an automatic feeding device, and an automatic watering device. The cage mechanism restricts the movement range of livestock, preventing them from getting lost. The automatic feeding and watering devices automatically add feed and water, reducing the labor intensity of workers.
