Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of bird feeding technology, and in particular to a bird feeder stand and a bird feeder. Background Technology

[0002] In areas where birds congregate, people often use the birds' favorite foods to attract them for observation, thus giving rise to bird feeders. Bird feeders typically consist of a food storage unit and a feeding dish. The food storage unit stores food (such as sunflower seeds, peanuts, etc.), and the feeding dish is connected to the food storage unit. When the food in the feeding dish is depleted, the food storage unit can replenish the food in the feeding dish to continue attracting other birds to feed.

[0003] To facilitate bird feeding, a perch is typically placed in front of the feeding dish assembly for the birds to stand on. However, in related technologies, the perch is usually fixed, meaning the distance between the perch and the feeding dish assembly is not adjustable. This means that bird feeders typically only attract birds of one size. When other sizes of birds stand on the perch, their beaks cannot easily reach into the feeding dish assembly to peck at the food, thus failing to attract them to feed. Since bird sizes vary significantly across different regions, existing bird feeders cannot meet the needs of users in different areas. Furthermore, the optimal shooting distance for different birds varies, and a fixed perch cannot meet the optimal shooting requirements for different bird species. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main technical problem solved by the embodiments of this application is to provide a bird feeder stand and a bird feeder, which can adjust the distance between the standing pole on the stand and the feeding tray assembly, thereby meeting the needs of users in different regions.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, one technical solution adopted in this application embodiment is: to provide a bird feeder stand, which is set on the feeding tray assembly of the bird feeder.

[0024] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0025] Bird feeders typically consist of a main feeding unit and a stand. The main feeding unit stores food for the birds, while the stand is mounted on the main feeding unit and positioned in front of the feeding inlet. The stand provides a place for the birds to stand and eat. In related technologies, the distance between the stand and the feeding inlet on the main feeding unit is fixed. This means the bird feeder is only suitable for birds of a certain size, while other bird sizes cannot be attracted to the feeder because they have difficulty standing on the stand. Furthermore, the size of birds varies greatly across different regions, meaning the bird feeder cannot meet the needs of users in multiple areas simultaneously. Additionally, the optimal shooting distance for the camera on the bird feeder differs for different bird species, and the fixed stand cannot meet the optimal shooting requirements for various bird types.

[0026] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a bird feeder stand and a bird feeder. By slidably mounting the stand on the main bird feeder body, the distance between the stand and the feeding dish assembly in the main bird feeder body can be adjusted to accommodate the needs of birds of various sizes. The specific structure and function of this application are described in detail below.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bird feeder 100 includes a bird feeding body 10 and a bird feeder stand 11 (hereinafter collectively referred to as the stand 11). The stand 11 is installed on the bird feeding body 10. The bird feeding body 10 is used to hold food, and the stand 11 is used for birds to stand on, so as to facilitate birds to eat.

[0028] The bird feeding unit 10 includes a food storage assembly 101 and a feeding tray assembly 102. The food storage assembly 101 stores food, and the feeding tray assembly 102 is installed at the food outlet end of the food storage assembly 101 and is connected to the food storage assembly 101. The feeding tray assembly 102 has at least one feeding inlet 1021 for birds to eat. When the food in the feeding tray assembly 102 is eaten, the food in the food storage assembly 101 can be replenished to the feeding tray assembly 102 to continue attracting birds to eat. The stand 11 includes a distance adjustment component 111 and a standing pole 112. The standing pole 112 is for birds to stand on, facilitating their eating. The distance adjustment component 111 connects the standing pole 112 and the bird feeding unit 10, and is used to adjust the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding inlet 1021 of the feeding tray assembly 102. In this embodiment, the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding dish assembly 102 is adjusted by setting the distance adjustment component 111. For users in different regions, the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding dish assembly 102 can be adjusted to a size suitable for birds of different sizes in the region to feed, thereby adapting to the needs of birds in different regions. The distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding dish assembly 102 can also be adjusted according to the optimal shooting distance required by different birds, which is beneficial to improving the shooting quality.

[0029] In one embodiment, the distance adjustment element 111 can be adjusted manually between the standing post 112 and the feeding port 1021, or it can be adjusted automatically according to different birds.

[0030] In one of these arrangements, the distance adjustment element 111 can be one of a telescopic rod, a folding rod, or a sliding rod.

[0031] In one embodiment, the distance adjustment member 111 includes a connecting rod 1111 and a locking member 1112. One end of the connecting rod 1111 is connected to the standing rod 112, and the connecting rod 1111 is slidably disposed on the bird feeding body 10. The locking member 1112 is detachably mounted on the bird feeding body 10 and is connected to the connecting rod 1111. The locking member 1112 is used to fix or unlock the connecting rod 1111 to the feeding dish assembly 102. When the locking member 1112 is unlocked, the connecting rod 1111 can slide relative to the bird feeding body 10 to adjust the distance between the standing rod 112 and the feeding inlet 1021 of the feeding dish assembly 102. When the locking member 1112 is locked, it restricts the sliding of the connecting rod 1111 relative to the bird feeding body 10, thereby avoiding the risk of the standing rod 112 moving relative to the bird feeding body 10 when a bird stands on it.

[0032] In some embodiments, the connecting rod 1111 is provided with a groove 1113, which extends along a first direction X, wherein the first direction X is parallel to the arrangement direction of the feeding inlet 1021 and the standing rod 112. The locking member 1112 passes through the groove 1113 and is connected to the bird feeding body 10. When the locking member 1112 is not locked to the bird feeding body 10, the connecting rod 1111 can slide relative to the locking member 1112 along the first direction X, thereby adjusting the distance between the standing rod 112 and the feeding inlet 1021. When the distance between the standing rod 112 and the feeding inlet 1021 is adjusted to a preset size, the locking member 1112 can be locked, thereby fixing the connecting rod 1111 to the bird feeding body 10, making it convenient for birds to stand on the standing rod 112.

[0033] In some embodiments, the locking member 1112 is detachably mounted on one of the grain bin assembly 101 or the feeding tray assembly 102.

[0034] In some embodiments, the locking member 1112 is installed on the feeding tray assembly 102. The locking member 1112 has an external thread (not labeled), and the feeding tray assembly 102 has a threaded groove 1022. The locking member 1112 passes through the sliding groove 1113 and is screwed into the threaded groove 1022, thereby achieving a detachable fixation between the locking member 1112 and the bird feeding body 10. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding inlet 1021, the locking member 1112 can be loosened first, and then the standing frame 11 can be pushed to slide along the first direction X, thereby adjusting the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding inlet 1021 to a preset distance. Finally, the locking member 1112 is locked, thereby completing the adjustment of the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding inlet 1021.

[0035] In some embodiments, the locking member 1112 is provided with anti-slip texture (not labeled), which is provided on at least a portion of the outer surface of the locking member 1112 for the user to grip in order to tighten or loosen the locking member 1112.

[0036] In some embodiments, the distance adjustment member 111 includes a first washer 1115 and a second washer 1116. The first washer 1115 is located on the side of the connecting rod 1111 away from the food tray assembly 102, and the locking member 1112 passes through the first washer 1115. The second washer 1116 is located between the connecting rod 1111 and the food tray assembly 102, and the locking member 1112 passes through the first washer 1115, the slide groove 1113, and the second washer 1116 in sequence and is then locked to the food tray assembly 102. By setting the first washer 1115 and the second washer 1116, the locking force between the locking member 1112, the connecting rod 1111, and the feeding tray assembly 102 can be increased, thereby improving the stability of the fixed connection between the stand 11 and the bird feeding body 10. In addition, when the locking member 1112 is loosened and the distance between the stand 112 and the feeding port 1021 is adjusted, the first washer 1115 can rotate relative to the locking member 1112, which helps to reduce the friction between the connecting rod 1111 and the locking member 1112, thereby reducing wear. The second washer 1116 can rotate relative to the bird feeding body 10, which helps to reduce the friction between the connecting rod 1111 and the bird feeding body 10, thereby reducing wear.

[0037] In some embodiments, there are multiple feeding ports 1021, which are spaced apart, and the arrangement direction of the multiple feeding ports 1021 is parallel to the first direction X.

[0038] In some embodiments, the bird feeder 100 includes a guide 1114 mounted on the feeding dish assembly 102, at least a portion of the guide 1114 passing through a groove 1113, and a connecting rod 1111 slidable relative to the guide 1114 along the groove 1113. The guide 1114 and the locking member 1112 are spaced apart along a first direction X. In this embodiment, by providing a guide member 1114, which passes through the slide groove 1113 and is spaced apart from the locking member 1112 along the first direction X, the risk of the stand 11 swinging around the locking member 1112 can be reduced when the bird stands on the stand 112, thus improving the stability of the stand 11 and the feeding dish assembly 102 and ensuring that the bird can stand on the stand 11 to feed. In addition, since both the guide member 1114 and the locking member 1112 pass through the slide groove 1113 and are spaced apart along the first direction X, the sliding direction of the connecting rod 1111 relative to the feeding dish assembly 102 can be restricted, so that the stand 112 can move closer to or further away from the feeding opening 1021 along the first direction X, thus adjusting the distance between the stand 112 and the feeding opening 1021.

[0039] In some embodiments, the guide 1114 and the locking member 1112 have different sizes or different shapes.

[0040] In some embodiments, the guide member 1114 and the locking member 1112 may have the same shape and size.

[0041] In some embodiments, the guide 1114 can be a screw. The guide 1114 passes through the slide groove 1113 and is screwed onto the feeding tray assembly 102, thereby providing a force to lock the connecting rod 1111 onto the feeding tray assembly 102, thus improving the stability of the fixation between the connecting rod 1111 and the feeding tray assembly 102. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the standing rod 112 and the feeding port 1021, the locking member 1112 and the guide 1114 can be loosened respectively, then the distance between the standing rod 112 and the feeding port 1021 can be adjusted, and finally the locking member 1112 and the guide 1114 can be tightened respectively.

[0042] In some embodiments, there are two first gaskets 1115 and two second gaskets 1116. Both first gaskets 1115 are located on the side of the connecting rod 1111 away from the food tray assembly 102, and both second gaskets 1116 are located between the connecting rod 1111 and the food tray assembly 102. The locking member 1112 passes through one of the first gaskets 1115, the slide groove 1113 and one of the second gaskets 1116 and is then screwed into the threaded groove 1022. The guide member 1114 passes through the other first gasket 1115, the slide groove 1113 and the other second gasket 1116 and is then screwed into the food tray assembly 102. In this embodiment, by providing two first shims 1115 and two second shims 1116, the locking force between the guide 1114, the connecting rod 1111, and the bird feeding body 10 can be increased, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the connecting rod 1111 and the feeding dish assembly 102. On the other hand, when the guide 1114 is loosened and the distance between the standing rod 112 and the feeding port 1021 is adjusted, the first shims 1115 can rotate relative to the guide 1114, which helps to reduce the friction between the connecting rod 1111 and the guide 1114, thereby reducing wear. Furthermore, the second shims 1116 can rotate relative to the feeding dish assembly 102, which helps to reduce the friction between the connecting rod 1111 and the feeding dish assembly 102, thereby reducing wear.

[0043] In some embodiments, the guide 1114 may be a protrusion (not shown) on the feeding tray assembly 102, in addition to a screw. At least part of the protrusion passes through the groove 1113. Therefore, when the locking member 1112 is loosened, the connecting rod 1111 can slide relative to the protrusion in the first direction X, which facilitates the adjustment of the distance between the standing rod 112 and the feeding port 1021.

[0044] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The perch 11 includes two distance adjustment components 111, which are respectively connected to both ends of the standing pole 112 and installed on both sides of the feeding dish assembly 102. The two distance adjustment components 111 are used together to adjust the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding inlet 1021. By providing two distance adjustment components 111, the stability of the fixation between the standing pole 112 and the feeding dish assembly 102 can be improved, reducing the risk of swaying when the bird stands on the standing pole 112.

[0045] It is worth noting that in related technologies, the stand 11 is usually made of metal. When the ambient temperature is high, the stand 11 easily absorbs heat, causing the temperature to rise continuously. When birds stand on the stand 11, it is easy to burn the birds' claws, which is not conducive to attracting birds to come and eat.

[0046] To address the above issues, please refer to some embodiments. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The stand 11 also includes a heat insulation component 113, which is fitted onto the standing pole 112. The heat insulation component 113 is used for birds to stand on and can insulate at least part of the heat in the standing pole 112, thereby reducing the risk of birds being burned by the standing pole 112, improving the comfort of birds when standing on the standing pole 112, attracting birds to stay, and making it convenient for users to observe birds.

[0047] In some embodiments, the heat insulation element 113 covers part or all of the outer surface of the standing post 112, thereby reducing the risk of birds coming into contact with the hot core 1121 when standing on the standing post 112, and thus reducing the risk of birds being burned. Specifically, when the heat insulation element 113 covers part of the outer surface of the standing post 112, the heat insulation element 113 can be disposed on the upper half of the standing post 112, that is, the heat insulation element 113 covers the surface of the upper half of the standing post 112. When birds stand on the perch 11, they can step on the heat insulation element 113, thereby reducing the risk of being burned.

[0048] In some embodiments, the heat insulation element 113 is detachably sleeved on the standing rod 112. When the outside temperature is low, the heat insulation element 113 can be removed, which helps to extend the life of the heat insulation element 113.

[0049] In some embodiments, the outer surface of the heat insulation member 113 is provided with an anti-slip pattern (not shown), which can provide birds with greater friction and reduce the risk of birds slipping when standing on the stand 11.

[0050] In some embodiments, the standing pole 112 is made of metal to ensure that the stand 11 has high strength for birds to stand on, and the heat insulation component 113 is made of non-metallic material to ensure that the heat insulation component 113 has good heat insulation performance.

[0051] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The standing rod 112 has a locking protrusion 1121 at both ends, and the connecting rod 1111 has a locking groove 1117. The locking protrusion 1121 is engaged with the locking groove 1117, thereby realizing the connection between the connecting rod 1111 and the standing rod 112.

[0052] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The bird feeder 100 includes a camera component 12, which is located in the food storage component 101. The camera component 12 can capture images of birds coming to feed, so that users can enjoy bird watching.

[0053] In this embodiment, the standing pole 112 and the bird feeding body 10 are connected by a distance adjustment component 111, thereby adjusting the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding dish assembly 102. For users in different regions, the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding dish assembly 102 can be adjusted to a size suitable for birds of different sizes in the region, thus adapting to the needs of birds in different regions. Users can also adjust the distance between the standing pole 112 and the feeding dish assembly 102 according to the optimal shooting distance required by different birds, which is beneficial to improving the shooting quality.

[0054] The above description is merely an embodiment of this application and does not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this application's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this application.
