Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of large-scale livestock and poultry farming technology, and in particular to a quantitative feed dispensing device for large-scale pig farming. Background Technology
[0002] Large-scale livestock and poultry farming refers to large-scale farming activities conducted in a relatively large area using modern technology and management methods. Its characteristics include large-scale farming, such as pig farms with an annual output of over 5,000 pigs; technology-intensive operations, utilizing advanced technologies such as automated feeding; specialized division of labor, encompassing professionals such as feeders and veterinarians; and high production efficiency, with broiler chickens reaching market weight in just over 40 days. It offers advantages such as improved production efficiency, guaranteed product quality, enhanced market competitiveness, and promotion of industrial upgrading. However, it also faces challenges such as significant pressure in disease prevention and control, potential environmental pollution, and substantial susceptibility to market risks. In the future, intelligent farming will become a trend, leveraging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) to achieve precise control and intelligent management.
[0003] Feed dispensing devices are required for large-scale pig farming. However, most current feed dispensing devices have simple structures and cannot provide quantitative feeding. Overfeeding can lead to nutrient excess, excessive fat deposition, and reduced pork quality, while underfeeding can result in malnutrition and slow growth. Furthermore, the inability to distribute feed evenly in the trough can cause pigs to crowd together and compete for food. Therefore, this application proposes a quantitative feed dispensing device for large-scale pig farming to meet the needs. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing devices that cannot provide quantitative feeding and that feed piles up together, resulting in competition for food, this utility model provides a quantitative feed dispensing device for large-scale pig farming.
[0005] The technical implementation scheme of this utility model is as follows: a quantitative feed dispensing device for large-scale pig farming, including a feeding trough, a mounting base is provided on one side of the feeding trough, a mounting frame is provided on the top of the mounting base, a feed cylinder is provided on one side of the mounting frame directly above the feeding trough, a mounting ring is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the middle part of the feed cylinder at one end and fixedly connected to the mounting frame, a baffle is movably connected inside the feed cylinder, a feeding port is passed through the middle of the baffle, an adjustment component is provided between the baffle and the mounting frame, and a driving component is provided at the connection between the mounting frame and the mounting base.
[0006] Optionally, the adjustment assembly includes an adjustment groove, an adjustment plate, a connecting plate, and a connecting rod. The adjustment groove is formed on the top of the mounting frame, the adjustment plate is slidably connected to the adjustment groove, the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the top of the adjustment plate, and the two ends of the connecting rod are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the end of the connecting plate away from the adjustment plate and the top side of the baffle.
[0007] Optionally, the adjustment assembly further includes a fixing hole, a through groove, and a fixing rod. The fixing hole is provided in several sets and extends through the adjustment plate. The through groove extends through the inner wall of the adjustment groove on the side away from the material cylinder. The fixing rod is movably connected to the through groove and is adapted to the size of the fixing hole.
[0008] Optionally, the adjustment assembly further includes a slide groove, a slider, a spring, and a pull block. The slide groove is formed on the inner wall of the through groove. The slider is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the fixed rod and slidably connected to the slide groove. The spring is sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixed rod and its two ends are respectively fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slider away from the adjustment groove and the slide groove away from the adjustment groove. The pull block is fixedly connected to the outer end of the fixed rod.
[0009] Optionally, the drive assembly includes a drive groove, a drive block, a guide groove, and a guide block. The drive groove is located at the top of the mounting base, the drive block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting bracket and slidably connected to the drive groove, the guide groove is located on the inner walls of both sides of the drive groove, and the guide block is fixedly connected to both sides of the drive block and slidably connected to the guide groove.
[0010] Optionally, the drive assembly further includes a screw hole, a screw rod, a through hole, a motor, and a drive shaft. The screw hole passes through the drive block, and the two ends of the screw rod are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two ends of the drive groove. The screw rod passes through and is threadedly connected to the screw hole. The through hole passes through the inner wall of one end of the drive groove. The motor is mounted on the side of the mounting base with the through hole, and the drive shaft is mounted on the motor and passes through the through hole and is fixedly connected to the screw rod.
[0011] This utility model has the following advantages:
[0012] 1. This utility model features an adjustment component. Pulling the pull block outward causes it to slide along the slide groove via a fixed rod, compressing the spring. When the fixed rod moves out of the fixed hole, the adjustment plate slides along the adjustment groove, causing the baffle to rise and fall synchronously via the connecting plate and connecting rod. When the space formed by the baffle and the feed cylinder matches the required feed amount, the pull block is released, the spring rebounds, and the fixed rod moves inward via the slider. When the fixed rod is inserted into the fixed hole at the current height, the adjustment plate is fixed at the current height, thus fixing the baffle in the current position. This design allows the device to add different amounts of feed by adjusting the height of the baffle, making it suitable for feeding pigs at different growth stages.
[0013] 2. This utility model is equipped with a drive assembly. When the motor is started, it drives the screw to rotate via the drive shaft. Since the screw passes through and is threaded into the screw hole, the drive block slides along the drive groove as the screw rotates. The drive block, through the mounting bracket and mounting ring, drives the feed cylinder to move synchronously, thereby evenly adding feed into the trough. During this process, the guide block slides synchronously along the guide groove with the drive block and limits and guides it. This design allows the device to evenly add feed into the trough, thereby avoiding competition for feed. Attached Figure Description

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, a further detailed description of this utility model will be provided below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is hereby declared that the directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside that appear or will appear in this document are based solely on the accompanying drawings and are not intended to specifically limit this utility model.
[0021] A quantitative feed dispensing device for large-scale pig farming includes a feeding trough 1, a mounting base 2 on one side of the feeding trough 1, a mounting frame 3 on the top of the mounting base 2, a feed cylinder 4 directly above the feeding trough 1 on one side of the mounting frame 3, a mounting ring 5 fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the middle of the feed cylinder 4 at one end and fixedly connected to the mounting frame 3, a baffle 6 movably connected inside the feed cylinder 4, a feeding port 7 penetrating through the middle of the baffle 6, an adjustment component 8 between the baffle 6 and the mounting frame 3, and a drive component 9 at the connection between the mounting frame 3 and the mounting base 2.
[0022] It should be noted that the adjustment component 8 can adjust the height of the baffle 6, thereby adjusting the amount of feed added. The drive component 9 can enable the mounting frame 3 to move the feed cylinder 4, thereby evenly adding feed into the feed trough 1.
[0023] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment assembly 8 includes an adjustment groove 81, an adjustment plate 82, a connecting plate 83, and a connecting rod 84. The adjustment groove 81 is opened on the top of the mounting frame 3. The adjustment plate 82 is slidably connected to the adjustment groove 81. The connecting plate 83 is fixedly connected to the top of the adjustment plate 82. The two ends of the connecting rod 84 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the end of the connecting plate 83 away from the adjustment plate 82 and the top side of the baffle 6.
[0024] It should be noted that the height of the baffle 6 can be adjusted by sliding the adjusting plate 82 along the adjusting groove 81, through the connecting plate 83 and the connecting rod 84.
[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment assembly 8 also includes a fixing hole 85, a through groove 86 and a fixing rod 87. The fixing hole 85 is provided in several sets and extends through the adjustment plate 82. The through groove 86 extends through the inner wall of the adjustment groove 81 on the side away from the material cylinder 4. The fixing rod 87 is movably connected to the through groove 86 and is adapted to the size of the fixing hole 85.
[0026] It should be noted that the height of the adjusting plate 82 can be adjusted by removing the fixing rod 87 from the fixing hole 85, and the adjusting plate 82 can be fixed at the current height by inserting the fixing rod 87 into the fixing hole 85.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the adjustment assembly 8 also includes a slide groove 88, a slider 89, a spring 810, and a pull block 811. The slide groove 88 is formed in the inner wall of the through groove 86. The slider 89 is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the fixed rod 87 and slidably connected to the slide groove 88. The spring 810 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixed rod 87 and its two ends are respectively fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slider 89 away from the adjustment groove 81 and the slide groove 88 away from the adjustment groove 81. The pull block 811 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the fixed rod 87.
[0028] It should be noted that pulling the pull block 811 outward will cause the slider 89 to slide outward along the slide groove 88 via the fixed rod 87 and compress the spring 810. Releasing the pull block 811 will cause the spring 810 to rebound and cause the fixed rod 87 to move inward via the slider 89.
[0029] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the drive assembly 9 includes a drive groove 91, a drive block 92, a guide groove 93, and a guide block 94. The drive groove 91 is located on the top of the mounting base 2. The drive block 92 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting bracket 3 and slidably connected to the drive groove 91. The guide groove 93 is located on the inner walls of both sides of the drive groove 91. The guide block 94 is fixedly connected to both sides of the drive block 92 and slidably connected to the guide groove 93.
[0030] It should be noted that the mounting bracket 3 can be moved synchronously by sliding the drive block 92 along the drive groove 91. During this process, the guide block 94 will slide synchronously along the guide groove 93 with the drive block 92 and limit and guide it.
[0031] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the drive assembly 9 also includes a screw hole 95, a screw 96, a through hole 97, a motor 98, and a drive shaft 99. The screw hole 95 passes through the drive block 92. The two ends of the screw 96 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two ends of the drive groove 91. The screw 96 passes through and is threadedly connected to the screw hole 95. The through hole 97 passes through the inner wall of one end of the drive groove 91. The motor 98 is installed on the side of the mounting base 2 where the through hole 97 is provided. The drive shaft 99 is installed on the motor 98 and passes through the through hole 97 and is fixedly connected to the screw 96.
[0032] It should be noted that starting the motor 98 will drive the screw 96 to rotate via the drive shaft 99. Since the screw 96 passes through and is threaded into the screw hole 95, the drive block 92 will slide along the drive groove 91 as the screw 96 rotates.
[0033] In specific application scenarios, when feed needs to be dispensed, pulling the pull block 811 outward causes it to drive the slider 89 along the chute 88 outward via the fixed rod 87, compressing the spring 810. When the fixed rod 87 moves out of the fixed hole 85, the adjusting plate 82 slides along the adjusting groove 81, causing the baffle 6 to rise and fall synchronously via the connecting plate 83 and the connecting rod 84. When the space formed by the baffle 6 and the feed cylinder 4 matches the required amount of feed, the pull block 811 is released, the spring 810 rebounds, and the fixed rod 87 moves inward via the slider 89. When the fixed rod 87 is inserted into the fixed hole 85 at the current height, the adjusting plate 82 is fixed at the current height. The baffle 6 is fixed in its current position. Then, the switch at the bottom of the feed cylinder 4 is turned off, and feed is added into the feed cylinder 4 through the feed inlet 7. When the feed is added to the height and is in close contact with the baffle 6, the addition can be stopped. When feeding, the motor 98 is started so that it drives the screw 96 to rotate through the drive shaft 99. Since the screw 96 passes through and is threaded to the screw hole 95, the drive block 92 will slide along the drive groove 91 as the screw 96 rotates. The drive block 92 then drives the feed cylinder 4 to move synchronously through the mounting bracket 3 and the mounting ring 5, so that the feed is evenly added into the feed trough 1. During this process, the guide block 94 will slide synchronously along the guide groove 93 with the drive block 92 and limit and guide it.
