Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drinking water equipment technology, and in particular to a spill-proof drinking water equipment for poultry farming. Background Technology
[0002] Providing clean and sufficient drinking water is a key factor in ensuring the healthy growth of poultry. However, traditional poultry watering equipment often has many problems, causing considerable trouble for farmers.
[0003] Traditional open-style water troughs are easily contaminated by the external environment. Dust and debris can easily fall into the water, leading to unclean drinking water and increasing the risk of poultry diseases. Moreover, during the drinking process, poultry often spill water into the surrounding environment due to their activities or competition for water. This not only wastes water resources but also makes the breeding ground damp, which is conducive to the growth of bacteria and viruses and affects the healthy growth environment of poultry.
[0004] Meanwhile, as poultry grow and develop, their body size and drinking height requirements change. However, traditional waterers are usually at a fixed height, which cannot meet the appropriate drinking height requirements of poultry at different growth stages. This may lead to drinking difficulties for young birds or uncomfortable drinking postures for adult poultry, thus affecting their growth, development, and health. In addition, traditional waterers are inconvenient to refill, requiring frequent manual checks of the water level and refilling, which is not only labor-intensive and time-consuming but also makes it difficult to ensure that poultry receive sufficient drinking water in a timely manner. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a spill-proof drinking water device for poultry farming to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution, which includes a water storage tank. A float valve is installed on one inner wall of the water storage tank. The inlet of the float valve is connected to a water supply source via a flexible hose. Adjustment components are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the water storage tank and are installed on the wall. A drinking water tank is installed on the front of the water storage tank. A baffle is installed between the drinking water tank and the water storage tank. Several drinking ports are opened on the front of the drinking water tank, and a triangular drinking trough plate is provided on each drinking port.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, each of the drinking ports is provided with a movable groove, and the top of the water tank is provided with several telescopic cylinders, each of the telescopic cylinders corresponding to several drinking ports. The top of the telescopic rod of the telescopic cylinder is provided with a dustproof cover, the front of the dustproof cover is provided with an infrared sensor, the bottom of the front of the dustproof cover is provided with a connecting plate, the bottom of the connecting plate is provided with a baffle, and the baffle is placed on the triangular drinking trough plate.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the shape of the movable groove is consistent with the shape of the connecting plate and the baffle.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the infrared sensor is connected to the telescopic cylinder directly behind it for signal control.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the adjustment component includes a C-shaped mounting plate, a mounting bracket is provided on the top of the C-shaped mounting plate, and a lead screw is movably mounted inside the C-shaped mounting plate through a pair of bearing seats. One end of the lead screw is mounted on the transmission end of a motor, and the motor is mounted on the mounting bracket.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a pair of drive ears are respectively provided on both sides of the water storage tank. The drive ears are provided on the lead screw, and each drive ear is provided with a nut. The nut is threaded on the lead screw.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:
[0013] 1. This utility model adopts a closed design. The advantage of this design is that it can not only prevent water from spilling during use, but also prevent water from splashing into the surrounding environment due to the poultry's activities or other factors when they drink, thus avoiding waste of water resources. At the same time, the closed environment also makes it difficult for external debris to enter the drinking system. Whether in the water storage tank or the drinking tank, the purity of the water can be maintained, reducing the need for frequent water changes due to water source contamination by debris, thus saving water resources and breeding costs.
[0014] 2. This utility model uses a float valve installed in the water storage tank to automatically control water replenishment according to changes in the water level. When the water level drops, the float of the float valve drops accordingly, thereby opening the float valve and adding water from the water supply source to the water storage tank through a hose. This automatic water replenishment mechanism ensures that there is always an appropriate amount of water in the water storage tank for poultry to drink, which avoids the impact of water shortage on poultry growth and also avoids waste due to excessive water. At the same time, since the entire water replenishment process is carried out in a closed system, it also reduces the risk of external debris entering the water storage tank with the water flow.
[0015] 3. This utility model allows for easy adjustment of the height of the drinking device according to the growth size of poultry through an adjustable component. The motor in the adjustable component drives the lead screw to rotate, and the lead screw cooperates with the nuts in the drive ears on both sides of the water storage tank. When the motor rotates forward or backward, the height of the water storage tank can be adjusted, so that the drinking mouth can always be kept at a suitable drinking height for chickens, ducks and geese, thus improving the efficiency of breeding.

[0023] 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 specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.
[0024] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the present invention proposes a spill-proof drinking water device for poultry farming, which includes a water storage tank 1, with adjusting components 5 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the water storage tank 1. The adjusting components 5 are installed on the wall, and a drinking water tank 2 is arranged on the front of the water storage tank 1.
[0025] A float valve 10 is installed on one inner wall of the water storage tank 1. The inlet of the float valve 10 is connected to the water supply source through a hose. This connection method ensures that the water storage tank 1 is not affected when the height is adjusted by the adjustment component 5.
[0026] The adjustment assembly 5 includes a C-shaped mounting plate 50, with a mounting bracket 53 on the top of the C-shaped mounting plate 50. A lead screw 52 is movably mounted inside the C-shaped mounting plate 50 via a pair of bearing seats 51. One end of the lead screw 52 is mounted on the drive end of a motor 54, which is mounted on the mounting bracket 53.
[0027] A pair of drive ears 11 are provided on each side of the water storage tank 1. The drive ears 11 are mounted on the lead screw 52. Each drive ear 11 is provided with a nut 12. The nut 12 is threaded onto the lead screw 52. When the motor 54 rotates forward or reverses, it drives the lead screw 52 to rotate. The nut 12 moves on the lead screw 52, thereby driving the water storage tank 1 to adjust its height through the drive ears 11, so as to meet the drinking height requirements of poultry at different growth stages.
[0028] A drinking water tank 2 is provided on the front of the water storage tank 1. A baffle 4 is provided between the drinking water tank 2 and the water storage tank 1. The function of the baffle 4 is to prevent impurities in the water storage tank 1 from entering the drinking water tank 2 to a certain extent, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the drinking water.
[0029] The water tank 2 has several drinking ports 20 on the front. Each drinking port 20 is equipped with a telescopic cylinder 3. The top of the telescopic rod of the telescopic cylinder 3 is equipped with a dustproof cover 30, which is used to prevent dust when the drinking port 20 is not in use.
[0030] An infrared sensor 31 is provided on the front of the dust cover 30 to sense the approach and departure of poultry. A connecting plate 32 is provided at the bottom of the front of the dust cover 30, and a baffle 33 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 32. When the infrared sensor 31 senses the approach of poultry, it controls the telescopic cylinder 3 to retract the telescopic rod, which moves the dust cover 30 backward. The connecting plate 32 and the baffle 33 move accordingly. The baffle 33 is inserted into the movable slot 22 opened on the drinking port 20, so that the poultry can drink water in the triangular drinking trough plate 21. When the poultry leaves, the infrared sensor 31 controls the telescopic cylinder 3 to extend the telescopic rod, so that the baffle 33 covers the triangular drinking trough plate 21 again.
[0031] The shape of the movable trough 22 is consistent with the shape of the connecting plate 32 and the baffle 33, ensuring that the baffle 33 can move smoothly in the movable trough 22 to realize the opening and closing control of the drinking port 20. At the same time, the infrared sensor 31 is connected to the telescopic cylinder 3 directly behind it for signal control, ensuring the accuracy and timeliness of sensing and control. Each drinking port 20 is equipped with a triangular drinking trough plate 21 to provide drinking positions for poultry.
[0032] When poultry such as chickens, ducks, and geese approach this device, the infrared sensor 31 equipped with the device will immediately detect it. At this time, the sensor will send a signal to control the corresponding telescopic cylinder 3 to move. The telescopic cylinder 3 will then retract the telescopic rod, and the telescopic rod will pull the dust cover. The dust cover will drive the baffle 33 to move through the connecting plate 32, so that the baffle 33 will be retracted into the moving slot 22. In this way, the poultry can smoothly enter the triangular drinking trough plate 21 to drink water.
[0033] After the poultry leave, the infrared sensor 31 comes into play again. It controls the telescopic cylinder 3 to push the telescopic rod to extend, causing the baffle 33 to close again. This design can effectively prevent dust and other debris from entering the water trough and keep the drinking water clean and hygienic.
[0034] During the operation of the device, when the water level in the water storage tank 1 drops, the float of the float valve 10 will also drop. As the float drops, the float valve 10 will automatically open, thereby enabling the addition of water to the water storage tank 1. This automatic water addition design ensures that there is always enough water in the water storage tank 1 for poultry to drink, while also reducing the workload of frequent manual checks and water additions.
[0035] A major advantage of this invention is that the height can be adjusted according to the growth size of the poultry, so that the drinking spout 20 is always kept at a suitable drinking height for chickens, ducks and geese. The specific operation method is as follows: simply control the motors 54 of the two adjustment components 5 to make the motors 54 rotate forward or backward at the same time. When the motors 54 rotate, they will drive the lead screw 52 to rotate. The lead screw 52 and the lead screw nut 12 cooperate with each other to adjust the height of the water storage tank 1. In this way, no matter what stage of growth the poultry is in, they can easily drink water, which improves the applicability and practicality of the device.
[0036] This utility model adopts a closed design, which not only avoids water spillage and waste, but also effectively prevents debris from falling into the drinking water, providing poultry with a clean, hygienic and stable drinking water environment, which helps poultry grow healthily and improves breeding efficiency.
[0037] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of this utility model and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be included within its protection scope. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
