Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry, and in particular to a drinking trough for cattle and sheep farming. Background Technology

[0002] In cattle and sheep farming, drinking water equipment is a key factor in ensuring animal health and production efficiency. Existing drinking troughs for cattle and sheep farming are often simply designed and lack automatic cleaning mechanisms. They require regular manual cleaning, either by entering the trough periodically or using cleaning tools. This manual cleaning method is not only inefficient but also makes it difficult to ensure thorough and complete cleaning. Especially in corners and hard-to-reach areas, dirt and impurities easily accumulate, posing hygiene risks.

[0003] When cleaning drinking troughs, operators typically need to use specific cleaning tools and materials. However, existing drinking trough designs often lack compatibility with cleaning tools, leading to the need to use multiple tools or frequently change cleaning materials during the cleaning process, increasing cleaning costs and complexity. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a drinking trough for cattle and sheep farming, and to solve the following technical problems: how to optimize the cleaning of the drinking trough, reduce the difficulty of manual cleaning, and how to enhance the durability of the drinking trough.

[0005] To address the problems in the existing technology, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A drinking trough for cattle and sheep farming includes a support frame, a top plate fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, a water-holding trough body embedded inside the top plate, the bottom of the water-holding trough body being arc-shaped, a horizontal plate slidably connected to the top of the water-holding trough body, an arc-shaped strip fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate, the arc-shaped strip being slidably connected inside the water-holding trough body, a filter screen fixedly connected inside the arc-shaped strip, and a cleaning strip fixedly connected to the outside of the arc-shaped strip, the cleaning strip being in contact with the inner wall of the water-holding trough body.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the water tank is symmetrically and fixedly connected with reinforcing strips to enhance the structural strength and load-bearing capacity of the water tank. The reinforcing strips extend the service life of the water tank and reduce the cost caused by frequent replacement or repair of the water tank.

[0008] Preferably, a drain pipe is provided on one side of the bottom of the water tank, and a drain valve is installed on the drain pipe. The drain pipe allows the water in the tank to be discharged quickly and effectively when needed, which is convenient for cleaning, maintenance or water replacement. By opening or closing the drain valve, the outflow of water in the tank can be flexibly controlled.

[0009] Preferably, the top two sides of the water tank are symmetrically provided with raised strips, and the bottom two sides of the horizontal plate are symmetrically provided with grooves. The grooves are slidably connected to the outer side of the corresponding raised strips. The grooves slide along the raised strips, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the horizontal plate during the sliding process and preventing it from deviating from the predetermined path.

[0010] Preferably, a U-shaped handle is fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate, and a rubber sleeve is fitted on the outside of the U-shaped handle. The U-shaped handle provides a handle that is easy to grip and operate, and the horizontal plate can be easily slid for cleaning. The rubber sleeve provides additional comfort and anti-slip performance.

[0011] Preferably, the bracket has symmetrical storage panels inside, which are used to store cleaning tools, spare parts or other related items, so that tools can be placed neatly and orderly, making them easy to access and keeping the work area clean.

[0012] Preferably, an observation window is provided on one side of the water tank, which allows for direct observation of the water level and water quality in the tank. This enables operators to promptly identify and address insufficient water levels or water quality issues, ensuring that cattle and sheep have access to sufficient and clean drinking water.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] This invention utilizes a cleaning strip at the bottom of a horizontal plate that presses against the inner wall of the water tank. As the horizontal plate slides, the cleaning strip scrapes away dirt adhering to the inner wall, achieving an automatic cleaning function. This reduces the frequency and difficulty of manual cleaning, lowers the workload of operators, and ensures the cleanliness of the water tank, providing a healthier drinking environment for cattle and sheep.

[0015] This invention utilizes the cooperation of convex strips and grooves to allow the horizontal plate to slide stably along a predetermined path. This not only enables the operator to easily move the horizontal plate for cleaning or adjusting the position of the filter, but also ensures that the horizontal plate will not deviate from the track during the sliding process, thereby improving the convenience and safety of operation.
