Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sand cup technology, specifically a sand cup for feeding pigeons. Background Technology
[0002] Pigeon grit cups are essential equipment for raising pigeons, primarily used for storing health grit. Health grit is a mixture that typically contains bone meal, shell powder, eggshell powder, and fine sand. These components help pigeons digest food and groom their feathers. Currently, existing grit cups usually have a fixed internal space, making it inconvenient to adjust the grit placement. Multiple grit cups must be added for grit storage, which inconveniences when changing the grit. Utility Model Content

[0008] The adjustment assembly includes two rectangular holes formed in the base plate. Rectangular blocks are slidably connected to each of the two rectangular holes. Two through plates are installed on opposite ends of the two rectangular blocks. Lead screws are rotatably connected to each of the two rectangular holes, and the lead screws are threadedly connected to the rectangular blocks. The two through plates on the same side are connected to a baffle. The through plates are slidably connected to the base plate. A connecting rod is installed between the two lead screws. The connecting rod is rotatably connected to the base plate. A driven bevel gear is installed on the outer surface of the connecting rod. A rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the base plate. A driving bevel gear is installed at one end of the rotating shaft, and a rocker arm is installed at the other end of the rotating shaft.
[0009] Furthermore, the driving bevel gear and the driven bevel gear mesh with each other.
[0010] Furthermore, the two lead screw threads are in opposite directions.
[0011] Furthermore, the cross-section of the concave hole has a U-shaped structure.
[0012] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a sand cup for feeding pigeons, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] This invention allows for adjustment of the placement space within the sand cup body by adjusting the settings of the components, thereby allowing for the placement of more sand and improving the flexibility of the sand cup body for use, making it more convenient for feeding more pigeons.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Example
[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a sand cup for feeding pigeons, including a sand cup body 1, a hook 2 on the sand cup body 1, recesses 3 at both ends of the sand cup body 1, extension cups 6 slidably connected in both recesses 3, baffles 7 installed at opposite ends of the two extension cups 6, and a bottom plate 4 installed in the middle of the bottom end of the sand cup body 1, with an adjustment component 5 inside the bottom plate 4; by setting the adjustment component 5, the placement space inside the sand cup body 1 can be adjusted, so that more sand can be placed, thereby improving the flexibility of use of the sand cup body 1, and making it convenient for feeding more pigeons;
[0023] Adjustment component 5 includes two rectangular holes 51 formed in the base plate 4. Rectangular blocks 52 are slidably connected to each of the two rectangular holes 51. Two through plates 53 are installed at opposite ends of each rectangular block 52. Lead screws 54 are rotatably connected to each of the two rectangular holes 51, and the lead screws 54 are threadedly connected to the rectangular blocks 52. The two through plates 53 on the same side are connected to a baffle 7 and slidably connected to the base plate 4. A connecting rod 55 is installed between the two lead screws 54 and rotatably connected to the base plate 4. A driven bevel gear 56 is installed on the outer surface of the connecting rod 55. A rotating shaft 5 is rotatably connected inside the base plate 4. 7. One end of the rotating shaft 57 is equipped with a drive bevel gear 58, and the other end of the rotating shaft 57 is equipped with a rocker arm 59. By rotating the rocker arm 59, the rotating shaft 57 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the drive bevel gear 58 to rotate, which in turn drives the driven bevel gear 56 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod 55 to rotate, which in turn drives the two lead screws 54 to rotate, which in turn drives the rectangular block 52 to slide in the rectangular hole 51. This causes the baffle 7 to move through the through plate 53, which in turn causes the two extended cups 6 to slide in the concave hole 3 and move away from each other. This allows the device to carry sand together through the sand cup body 1 and the two extended cups 6, making it easy to adjust the space for placing sand inside.
[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the driving bevel gear 58 and the driven bevel gear 56 mesh with each other; this facilitates adjustment.
[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the two lead screws 54 have opposite thread directions; this facilitates adjustment.
[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the cross-section of the concave hole 3 has a U-shaped structure; the structure is simple.
[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
