Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry, and more specifically, to a portable automatic medication feeding device for animal husbandry. Background Technology

[0002] In the livestock farming industry, medicated feeding is a crucial step in ensuring the healthy growth of animals. Traditional methods of administering medication mostly rely on manual operation, such as manually preparing the solution and feeding it to each animal individually, or adding the medication to feed and drinking water.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese Patent Publication No. CN218128867U discloses "an automatic feeding device for livestock and veterinary medicine; including a feeding box, a mounting box, and a discharge pipe. A spiral feeding rod is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the feeding box, and a drive motor is installed inside the mounting box. In this technical solution, the active transmission wheel rotates with the drive end of the drive motor and works in conjunction with the transmission belt, thereby driving the active bevel gear on the rotating rod to rotate through the driven transmission wheel. The spiral feeding rod, through the driven bevel gear, follows the rotation of the active bevel gear, thus mixing the feed and powdered or granular medicine entering the feeding box through two funnels and conveying it to the discharge pipe. By setting and utilizing the timer function of the control panel, the drive motor can be easily controlled to automatically and timed feed containing medicine, realizing the function of simultaneously addressing illness or preventing disease in livestock during feeding, thus solving the problem of difficulty in feeding medicine when livestock are sick or preventing disease."

[0031] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0032] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment proposes a portable automatic medicine feeding device for livestock, including a cart 1, a medicine feeding mechanism 2 on the top of the cart 1, and a scraping component 3 on one side of the medicine feeding mechanism 2.

[0033] like Figure 4As shown, the feeding mechanism 2 includes a receiving frame 201, a mixing tank 202, a feeding frame 203, a discharge port 204, a discharge pipe 205, a solenoid valve 206, a feeding frame 207, an electric push rod 208, a sealing gasket 209, a feeding pipe 210, and a mixing assembly 211. The receiving frame 201 is fixedly connected to the top of the trolley 1, the mixing tank 202 is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the receiving frame 201, the feeding frame 203 is fixedly connected to the top of the receiving frame 201, and the feeding frame 203 communicates with the interior of the mixing tank 202. The discharge port 204 is opened on the inner bottom wall of the mixing tank 202, and the discharge pipe 205 is fixedly connected to the top of the receiving frame 201. A discharge pipe 205 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mixing tank 202 and communicates with the interior of the mixing tank 202. A solenoid valve 206 is located on one side of the discharge pipe 205. A feeding frame 207 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the discharge pipe 205 and communicates with the interior of the feeding frame 207. An electric push rod 208 is located on the inner wall of the receiving frame 201. A sealing gasket 209 is located at one end of the electric push rod 208 and the outer wall of the sealing gasket 209 is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the feeding frame 207. A feeding pipe 210 is fixedly connected to one side of the receiving frame 201 and communicates with the interior of the feeding frame 207. Drinking water and medicinal powder are injected into the mixing tank 202 inside the receiving frame 201 through the feeding frame 203; the mixing speed of drinking water and medicinal powder is accelerated by activating the mixing component 211; the solenoid valve 206 is activated to allow the mixed medicine to fall into the feeding frame 207 through the discharge port 204 and the discharge pipe 205; activating the solenoid valve 206 again can block the flow of the medicine and control the dosage of the medicine entering the feeding frame 207; the electric push rod 208 is activated to move the sealing gasket 209 in the feeding frame 207 and squeeze the medicine through the feeding pipe 210 to form automatic medicine feeding, reducing manual operation; and the user can move the medicine feeding mechanism 2 more conveniently through the trolley 1.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, the mixing assembly 211 includes a motor 2111, a rotating column 2112, and stirring plates 2113. The motor 2111 is bolted to the top of the receiving frame 201. The rotating column 2112 is vertically arranged at the output end of the motor 2111. Multiple stirring plates 2113 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating column 2112 and are located inside the mixing tank 202. Starting the motor 2111 causes the rotating column 2112 and stirring plates 2113 to rotate. The rotating stirring plates 2113 agitate the liquid inside the mixing tank 202, accelerating the mixing speed of the powdered medicine and drinking water, and improving work efficiency.

[0035] like Figure 4As shown, the scraping assembly 3 includes an extension rod 301 and a scraping strip 302. Both extension rods 301 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating column 2112, and the scraping strip 302 is fixedly connected to the end of the extension rod 301 away from the rotating column 2112. One side of the scraping strip 302 is in contact with the inner wall of the mixing tank 202. When the rotating column 2112 rotates, it will synchronously drive the extension rod 301 and the scraping strip 302 to rotate; while rotating, the scraping strip 302 will continuously scrape the inner wall of the mixing tank 202 to remove the attached powder and prevent waste.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, a liquid level sensor 4 is installed at the top of the feeding frame 207. The probe of the liquid level sensor 4 is located inside the feeding tube 210. A controller 5 is installed at the top of the feeding tube 210. Both the liquid level sensor 4 and the solenoid valve 206 are electrically connected to the controller 5. When the liquid medicine enters the feeding frame 207, some of the liquid medicine will enter the connection between the feeding tube 210 and the feeding frame 207. At this time, the probe of the liquid level sensor 4 is in the liquid medicine and will transmit a signal to the controller 5. The controller 5 controls the solenoid valve 206 to close, stopping the injection of liquid medicine. When the liquid medicine in the feeding frame 207 is pushed out, the probe in the feeding tube 210 does not sense liquid and will transmit a signal to the controller 5. The controller 5 controls the solenoid valve 206 to open, injecting liquid medicine again, thus making the dosage of liquid medicine entering the feeding frame 207 more uniform.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, a support frame 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the receiving frame 201. A battery 7 is housed inside the support frame 6. The solenoid valve 206, electric actuator 208, motor 2111, level sensor 4, and controller 5 are all electrically connected to the battery 7. A mounting plate 8 is bolted to the outer wall of the receiving frame 201, with one side of the mounting plate 8 fitting against one side of the battery 7. The battery 7 in the support frame 6 continuously provides power to the solenoid valve 206, electric actuator 208, motor 2111, level sensor 4, and controller 5, facilitating user movement of the device via the trolley 1. Furthermore, removing the mounting plate 8 allows for easy replacement or maintenance of the battery 7.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, an extension frame 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the feed frame 203, and a rotating cap 10 is threadedly connected to the top of the extension frame 9. When feeding is not required, the rotating cap 10 can be fixed to the top of the extension frame 9 to provide a shield for the feed frame 203 and prevent external debris from entering the mixing tank 202.

[0039] like Figure 5As shown, a protective pad 11 is provided on the outer wall of the feeding tube 210. The protective pad 11 is made of flexible material and is located at the end of the feeding tube 210 away from the receiving frame 201. The flexible material protective pad 11 can prevent livestock from having their mouths injured by the feeding tube 210 when receiving medication.

[0040] Specifically, when using this portable automatic livestock medication feeding device: drinking water and medicine powder are injected into the mixing tank 202 through the feeding frame 203; the motor 2111 is started, causing the rotating column 2112 and the stirring plate 2113 to rotate. The rotating stirring plate 2113 can agitate the liquid inside the mixing tank 202, accelerating the mixing of medicine powder and drinking water; at this time, the liquid level sensor 4 and controller 5 are activated. If the probe in the medication tube 210 does not detect liquid, it will transmit a signal to the controller 5. The controller 5 controls the solenoid valve 206 to open, allowing the mixed medicine liquid to fall into the medication frame 207 through the discharge port 204 and the discharge pipe 205; when The probe of the liquid level sensor 4 is located in the liquid medicine and transmits a signal to the controller 5. The controller 5 controls the solenoid valve 206 to close, stopping the injection of liquid medicine; this ensures that the dosage of liquid medicine entering the feeding frame 207 is uniform each time; the electric push rod 208 is activated, causing the sealing gasket 209 to move in the feeding frame 207, squeezing the liquid medicine in the feeding frame 207 through the feeding tube 210, forming automatic feeding and reducing manual operation; when the rotating column 2112 rotates, it will synchronously drive the extension rod 301 and the scraping strip 302 to rotate; while the scraping strip 302 rotates, it will continuously scrape the inner wall of the mixing tank 202 to remove the attached powder medicine and prevent waste.

[0041] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.

[0042] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
