Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of dry and wet feed troughs for fattening pigs, specifically a dry and wet feed trough for fattening pigs. Background Technology

[0002] The dry and wet feed trough for fattening pigs is a type of breeding equipment that integrates automatic feed trough and drinking water functions. It allows pigs to eat dry feed and drink water at the same time, improving feed conversion rate and shortening the time to market.

[0003] Dry and wet feed troughs are typically designed with a hopper and a vertical feed pipe. A feed plug is located at the bottom of the hopper, fixed to a central rod and passing through the vertical feed pipe. Feed is placed in the hopper. When a pig is hungry, it arches up the feed release lever, lifting the feed plug, and the feed falls into the feed trough for the pig to eat. In existing technology, pigs need to arch up the feed release lever each time they eat, but the fixed position of the lever makes it unsuitable for pigs of different sizes, affecting the feeding of fattening pigs. Furthermore, it cannot effectively separate the feed in the feed trough from the feed in the hopper, leading to spoilage of the feed in the hopper and consequently affecting the feed in the feed trough. Therefore, we propose a dry and wet feed trough for fattening pigs. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a dry and wet feed trough for fattening pigs. It solves the problem that pigs need to arch up the feed bar each time they eat, but the position of the feed bar is fixed and cannot be used for pigs of different sizes, which affects the feeding of fattening pigs. At the same time, it cannot effectively separate the feed in the feed trough from the feed in the hopper, which leads to the deterioration of the feed in the hopper and thus affects the feed in the hopper.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a dry and wet feed trough for fattening pigs, comprising a feed trough, a feed hopper, a feeding unit and an adjustment unit, wherein the feed trough is located below the feed hopper and is used to load feed and water;

[0006] The hopper is used to store feed;

[0007] The feeding unit includes:

[0008] The discharge pipe is slidably connected to the inner wall of the hopper;

[0009] The discharge port is used to convey feed from the hopper;

[0010] The adjustment unit is located on the outer wall of the discharge pipe, and the adjustment unit is used to drive the discharge port into the hopper.

[0011] Preferably, a connecting frame is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the trough, and the connecting frame is fixedly connected to the hopper.

[0012] Preferably, a water pipe is inserted into the inner wall of the connecting frame.

[0013] Preferably, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the top end face of the discharge pipe, and the limiting block is in contact with the inner wall of the hopper.

[0014] Preferably, the adjustment unit includes:

[0015] A contact seat, which is slidably connected to the outer wall of the discharge pipe;

[0016] A sliding rod is slidably connected to the outer peripheral wall of the contact seat.

[0017] Preferably, both sides of the slide bar are fixedly connected to a fixing seat, and the fixing seat is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the discharge pipe.

[0018] Preferably, both sides of the contact seat are threaded with nut seats, and the end of the nut seat is in contact with the outer wall of the slide rod.

[0019] This utility model discloses a dry and wet feed trough for fattening pigs, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] This fattening pig dry and wet feed trough allows the pig to automatically feed itself by pushing the feed pipe with the adjustment unit. The pig does not need to arch up the feed rod. At the same time, the height at which the pig arches up the feed pipe is limited to prevent excessive feed from entering the feed trough and accumulating. It also separates the feed in the feed trough from the feed in the hopper to prevent the feed in the feed trough from spoiling and affecting the feed in the hopper.

[0021] This fattening pig feed trough uses a dry and wet feed trough. The height of the contact seat relative to the discharge pipe can be adjusted to accommodate fattening pigs of different sizes. When the fattening pigs are feeding, they come into contact with the contact seat and push it to allow the discharge port to enter the hopper, facilitating feed dispensing through the discharge port. After the fattening pigs finish feeding, they leave the contact seat and, under the influence of gravity, the retaining block adheres to the feed trough, separating the discharge port from the hopper, thus facilitating feed isolation.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0028] This application provides a dry and wet feed trough for fattening pigs, which solves the problem that pigs need to arch up the feed rod every time they eat. However, the position of the feed rod is fixed, which cannot be used for pigs of different sizes, affecting the feeding of fattening pigs. At the same time, it is not possible to effectively separate the feed in the feed trough 1 from the feed in the hopper 2, which leads to the deterioration of the feed in the hopper 2 and thus affects the feed in the hopper 2. The pig coordination adjustment unit 4 automatically feeds the pigs by pushing the feed pipe 301 to move, eliminating the need for the pigs to arch up the feed rod. At the same time, the height at which the pigs arch up the feed pipe 301 is limited to prevent excessive feed from entering the feed trough 1 and accumulating. It also separates the feed in the feed trough 1 from the feed in the hopper 2, preventing the feed in the feed trough 1 from deteriorating and affecting the feed in the hopper 2.

[0029] The height of the contact seat 401 relative to the discharge pipe 301 is adjusted to accommodate fattening pigs of different sizes. When the fattening pigs are feeding, they come into contact with the contact seat 401, pushing the contact seat 401 so that the discharge port 302 enters the hopper 2, facilitating the feeding of feed through the discharge port 302. When the fattening pigs finish feeding, they leave and no longer come into contact with the contact seat 401. Under the action of gravity, the limiting block 303 adheres to the feed trough 1, separating the discharge port 302 from the hopper 2, thus facilitating the isolation of feed.

[0030] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0031] This utility model discloses a dry and wet feed trough for fattening pigs. Example

[0032] According to the appendix Figure 1-3 As shown, it includes a feed trough 1, a hopper 2, a feeding unit 3, and an adjusting unit 4. The feed trough 1 is located below the hopper 2 and is used to load feed and water.

[0033] Hopper 2 is used to store feed;

[0034] The feeding unit 3 includes:

[0035] The discharge pipe 301 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the hopper 2;

[0036] The discharge port 302 is used to convey the feed in the hopper 2;

[0037] Automatic feeding is achieved by moving the discharge pipe 301, preventing excessive feed from accumulating in the feed trough 1. Simultaneously, the feed in the feed trough 1 is separated from the feed in the hopper 2, preventing spoilage of the feed in the feed trough 1 from affecting the feed in the hopper 2.

[0038] The adjustment unit 4 is installed on the outer wall of the discharge pipe 301. The adjustment unit 4 is used to drive the discharge port 302 into the hopper 2.

[0039] The contact seat 401 slides on the slide rod 403 to adjust the height of the contact seat 401 relative to the discharge pipe 301, which is convenient for feeding fattening pigs of different sizes. When the fattening pigs are feeding, they come into contact with the contact seat 401, which pushes the contact seat 401 to drive the discharge pipe 301 to slide in the hopper 2, so that the discharge port 302 enters the hopper 2, making it convenient for the feed to be discharged through the discharge port 302. When the fattening pigs finish feeding, they leave and no longer come into contact with the contact seat 401. Under the action of gravity, the limiting block 303 fits against the feed trough 1, separating the discharge port 302 from the hopper 2, thus facilitating the isolation of the feed.

[0040] A limiting block 303 is fixedly connected to the top end face of the discharge pipe 301. The limiting block 303 fits against the inner wall of the hopper 2. By fitting the limiting block 303 against the hopper 2, it is convenient to separate the discharge port 302 from the inside of the hopper 2. By pushing the discharge pipe 301 to slide in the hopper 2, the discharge port 302 enters the hopper 2. At this time, the feed in the hopper 2 enters the feed trough 1 through the discharge port 302 for automatic feeding.

[0041] The pig coordination adjustment unit 4 automatically feeds the pig by pushing the feed pipe 301 to move. This eliminates the need for the pig to arch up the feed rod. At the same time, the height at which the pig arches up the feed pipe 301 is limited, preventing excessive feed from entering the feed trough 1 and accumulating there. It also separates the feed in the feed trough 1 from the feed in the hopper 2, preventing the feed in the feed trough 1 from spoiling and affecting the feed in the hopper 2.

[0042] Adjustment unit 4 includes:

[0043] Contact seat 401 is slidably connected to the outer wall of discharge pipe 301;

[0044] The slide rod 403 is slidably connected to the outer peripheral wall of the contact seat 401.

[0045] Both sides of the slide rod 403 are fixedly connected to the fixing seat 402. The fixing seat 402 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the discharge pipe 301. The contact seat 401 slides on the slide rod 403 to adjust the height of the contact seat 401 relative to the discharge pipe 301, which is convenient to adapt to the feeding of fattening pigs of different sizes.

[0046] Both sides of the contact seat 401 are threaded with nut seats 404. The end of the nut seat 404 is attached to the outer wall of the slide rod 403. The nut seat 404 limits the contact seat 401 to the discharge pipe 301. When the fattening pigs eat, the fattening pigs come into contact with the contact seat 401, pushing the contact seat 401 to drive the discharge pipe 301 to slide in the hopper 2, so that the discharge port 302 enters the hopper 2, making it convenient for the feed to be discharged through the discharge port 302.

[0047] After the fattening pig finishes eating, it leaves the contact seat 401 and is no longer in contact with the pig. Under the action of gravity, the limiting block 303 adheres to the feed trough 1, separating the discharge port 302 from the feed hopper 2, thus facilitating the isolation of the feed. Example

[0048] A connecting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the trough 1. The connecting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the hopper 2, and the hopper 2 is connected to the top of the hopper 2 through the connecting frame 5.

[0049] A water pipe 6 is inserted into the inner wall of the connecting frame 5. The water pipe 6 is connected to a water source, so that water can be transported to the material tank 1 through the water pipe 6.

[0050] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
