Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pig farming technology, specifically to an intelligent feeding machine for pig farming. Background Technology

[0002] Porridge feeding is a widely used method of pig farming. It involves mixing feed with water to form a porridge-like consistency, providing pigs with a nutritionally balanced diet. Porridge feeding has advantages such as good palatability, faster growth, and reduced feed costs. It also reduces the amount of human activity in the pigsty, effectively blocking and reducing disease transmission routes, and reducing labor costs.

[0003] However, in existing technologies, feeding machines typically deliver liquid feed to the trough through pipes, and then drive the pigs to eat around the trough. Because the feed is not evenly distributed in the trough, it is impossible to accurately dispense the feed. When feeding piglets, because piglets have a small appetite, eating too much feed can cause diarrhea, which will affect the growth of the piglets and lead to emaciation. In addition, the inner walls and partitions of the feed trough are not easy to clean, and the growth of bacteria will also affect the health of the pigs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent feeding machine for pig farming, which aims to solve the problems of inability to achieve precise quantitative feeding and inconvenient cleaning of the feeding trough in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0006] Furthermore, the metering mechanism includes a stirring cylinder, a metering cylinder, a cylinder, a connecting plate, and a piston rod. The stirring cylinder is fixedly installed at the top of the horizontal plate. The metering cylinder passes through the horizontal plate, and its outer side is connected to the bottom of the stirring cylinder via a feed pipe. The bottom of the metering cylinder is connected to a discharge pipe. One-way valves are fixed to the outer sides of both the discharge pipe and the feed pipe. Two cylinders are provided, which are fixedly installed on the horizontal plate and symmetrically arranged on the upper part of the left and right sides of the metering cylinder. The connecting plate is horizontally arranged, and its two ends are fixedly connected to the telescopic ends of the cylinders respectively.

The bottom end of the piston rod passes through and extends into the inside of the metering cylinder and is fixed with a piston. The outer edge of the piston slides against the inner wall of the metering cylinder.

[0007] Furthermore, the feeding trough includes a base, a stepper motor, and a trough body with a semi-circular cross-section. The upper surface of the base has a receiving cavity for accommodating the trough body, and the bottom of the receiving cavity has a drain trough communicating with it. The two ends of the trough body are rotatably connected to the inside of the receiving cavity through mounting shafts. The stepper motor is mounted on the base and its output end passes through the base and is fixedly connected to the mounting shaft at one end of the trough body.

[0010] Furthermore, the sewage trough is a rectangular trough arranged at an angle, and a sewage pipe is connected to the lower end of the sewage trough.

[0011] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] This utility model provides an intelligent feeder for pig farming. Multiple partitions divide the feeding trough into several feeding areas. A sliding block connected to the guide rail drives the quantitative mechanism to move linearly. Through the operation of the cylinder and piston, and with the cooperation of two one-way valves, the feed is quantitatively delivered into each chamber inside the feeding trough, avoiding deviations during the feeding process and realizing quantitative feeding of pigs.

[0018] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an intelligent pig feeder includes a support frame 1 and a feeding trough located at the lower end of the support frame 1. The top of the support frame 1 is provided with a slide rail 2, and a slide block 3 is slidably arranged in the slide rail 2. A horizontal plate 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the slide block 3. The feeder also includes a metering mechanism on the horizontal plate 4 and a drive assembly located at the top of the support frame 1 for driving the slide block 3 to move. The discharge port of the metering mechanism is located above the feeding trough. Multiple partitions are arranged at intervals inside the feeding trough, and the partitions divide the feeding trough into multiple feeding areas.

[0019] The metering mechanism includes a stirring cylinder 5, a metering cylinder 6, a cylinder 7, a connecting plate 8, and a piston rod 9. The stirring cylinder 5 is fixedly installed at the top of the horizontal plate 4. The metering cylinder 6 passes through the horizontal plate 4, and its outer side is connected to the bottom of the stirring cylinder 5 via a feed pipe 10. The bottom of the metering cylinder 6 is connected to a discharge pipe 11. One-way valves 12 are fixed to the outer sides of both the discharge pipe 11 and the feed pipe 10. The upper one-way valve 12 feeds from the outside to the inside, and the lower one-way valve 12 discharges from the inside to the outside. Two cylinders 7 are provided, fixedly installed on the horizontal plate 4, and symmetrically arranged on the upper part of the left and right sides of the metering cylinder 6. The length of the extension and retraction of the output shaft of the cylinder 7 controls the amount of feed. The connecting plate 8 is horizontally set and its two ends are fixedly connected to the extension and retraction ends of the cylinder 7. The piston rod 9 is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom end of the connecting plate 8. The bottom end of the piston rod 9 passes through and extends into the inside of the metering cylinder 6 and is fixed with a piston 13. The outer edge of the piston 13 slides in cooperation with the inner wall of the metering cylinder 6. The extension of the output shaft of the cylinder 7 causes the connecting plate 8 to move upward, which in turn drives the piston 13 to move upward through the piston rod 9. When the piston 13 moves upward in the metering cylinder 6, it generates a negative pressure, which draws the feed from the inside of the mixing drum 5 through the feed pipe 10.

[0020] The feeding trough includes a base 14, a stepper motor 15, and a trough body 16 with a semi-circular cross-section. The upper surface of the base 14 has a receiving cavity for accommodating the trough body 16. A drain trough 17 communicating with the bottom of the receiving cavity is provided. The two ends of the trough body 16 are rotatably connected to the inside of the receiving cavity through mounting shafts. The stepper motor 15 is mounted on the base 14 and its output end passes through the base 14 and is fixedly connected to the mounting shaft at one end of the trough body 16. A flushing component is provided in the drain trough 17 to act on the upper trough body 16. When the trough body 16 rotates to the top of the receiving cavity, the trough body 16 and the base 14 enclose a sealed cavity, and the flushing component washes away the sticky feed residue.

[0021] The flushing assembly includes a spray pipe 18, a high-pressure water pump 19, and a water tank 20. The water tank 20 is located on one side of the base 14. The spray pipe 18 is horizontally installed inside the sewage trough 17. One end of the spray pipe 18 is closed, and the other end is connected to the bottom of the water tank 20 through the high-pressure water pump 19. The spray pipe 18 is evenly equipped with nozzles facing upwards.

[0022] The drive assembly includes a motor 21, a lead screw 22 rotatably connected to one side of the slide rail 2, and a guide rod 23 fixedly connected to the other side of the slide rail 2. The output end of the motor 21 passes through the support frame 1 and is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 22. The slide block 3 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 22 and slides with the guide rod 23.

[0023] The sewage trough 17 is a rectangular trough with an incline, and the lower end of the sewage trough 17 is connected to the sewage pipe 24.

[0024] The specific operation process of this utility model is as follows:

[0025] Feed is prepared by mixing drum 5 to fully mix dry material with water. At this time, cylinder 7 is started, and the output shaft of cylinder 7 extends, causing the connecting plate 8 to move upward. This, in turn, drives piston 13 to move upward through piston rod 9. When piston 13 moves upward in metering cylinder 6, it generates negative pressure. At this time, feed pipe 10 introduces feed from inside mixing drum 5 into metering cylinder 6 through upper one-way valve 12. When the feed in metering cylinder 6 reaches a certain amount, cylinder 7 stops and retracts its output shaft. Connecting plate 8 moves downward, and piston 13 pushes the feed to move. Discharge pipe 11 can then inject feed into the feeding area through lower one-way valve 12, thereby achieving quantitative feeding. Motor 21 is started to rotate, and through the slide 3 threadedly connected to lead screw 22, it drives discharge pipe 11 to move above the next feeding area. The above operation is repeated to feed the feed.

[0026] After the pigs finish eating, the stepper motor 15 is started to rotate the feed trough body 16 180°, and the high-pressure water pump 19 is turned on to pump the water from the water tank 20 into the spray pipe 18. The spray nozzle on the spray pipe 18 is used to wash the feed residue stuck to the inner wall surface and both sides of the scraper with high pressure. The feed residue is washed off and flows out along the drain pipe 24 with the drain trough 17, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning the feed trough.
