DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0022] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0023] As Figures 1-8 shown, an automatic feeding hopper for pig farm includes: hopper box body 1, the one side of hopper box body 1 is provided with feed box 101, the bottom of hopper box body 1 is provided with four support feet 102, the top of hopper box body 1 is provided with feed port 103, cleaning assembly arranged in the inside of hopper box body 1 is used for cleaning the sundries in the inside of hopper box body 1, and the cleaning assembly includes: gear a 302, chain 501 and scraper 502, moving assembly arranged in the inside of feed box 101 is used for ensuring that the feed in the inside of feed box 101 can be evenly distributed, and the moving assembly includes: motor c 7, screw rod 701 and moving block 702.
[0024] The gear a302, the chain 501 and the scraper 502 in the cleaning assembly can clean the inner wall bottom of the hopper box 1, prevent the feed from being moldy after being stirred and accumulated in the hopper box 1, and affect the health of the pigs. Secondly, through the motor c7, the screw rod 701 and the moving block 702 in the moving assembly, the hose 601 is moved by the movement of the moving block 702, so that the feed can be evenly distributed on the feed box 101, and the pigs are prevented from being injured due to crowding.
[0025] The hopper box 1 is provided with a motor a2 on one side, a plurality of stirring rods 201 are driven and connected to the motor a2 on one side through a rotating shaft, the hopper box 1 is provided with a gear box 3 on one side, the gear box 3 is provided with a motor b301 inside, the motor b301 is driven and connected with a gear a302 on the top through a rotating shaft, the gear box 3 is provided with a c-shaped rod 4 inside, the c-shaped rod 4 is provided with a gear b401 outside, the c-shaped rod 4 is connected to the outside of the hopper box 1 at both ends, the gear b401 is engaged with the gear a302, the hopper box 1 is provided with an annular groove 5 inside, the annular groove 5 is provided with a chain 501 inside, the chain 501 is engaged with the gear b401 on one side, the chain 501 is connected with a scraper 502 on one side, and the scraper 502 is matched with the inner wall bottom of the hopper box 1 on one side.
[0026] Due to the diversity of the feed, the viscosity and humidity of the feed are different when the feed is stirred in the hopper box 1, which causes part of the feed to easily remain in the bottom of the inner wall of the hopper box 1. These residual feed is prone to mold and deterioration after a long time of accumulation, which produces harmful substances and threatens the health of the pigs. When the feeding hopper works, the feed enters from the feed port 103, then the motor a2 drives the plurality of stirring rods 201 to rotate, and the feed is stirred and scattered, then the motor b301 drives the gear a302 to rotate, and the gear b401 is engaged with the gear a302, and the gear b401 is engaged with the chain 501. Therefore, when the gear a302 rotates, the chain 501 rotates, and the scraper rotates in the bottom of the inner wall of the hopper box 1, and the residual feed in the bottom of the inner wall of the hopper box 1 is cleaned, and the residual feed is sent to the discharge port, ensuring the hygiene and safety of the feed, and improving the utilization rate of the feed to a certain extent.
[0027] The hopper box 1 is provided with a discharge port at the bottom, and an electromagnetic valve 6 is arranged in the discharge port.
[0028] The traditional fixed discharge design of the hopper is easy to cause the feed to accumulate in a certain area, and other areas are relatively less. This uneven distribution of feed will attract pigs to crowd in the place where there is more feed, which not only affects the feeding efficiency of pigs, but also may cause fighting and injury of pigs. The weight sensor 603 arranged in the feed box 101 senses the weight of the feed in the feed box 101. When the weight of the feed in the feed box 101 is insufficient, the electromagnetic valve 6 is opened by the weight sensor 603 to discharge the feed. Then the motor c7 drives the screw rod 701 to rotate. Since the threaded hole is arranged in the moving block 702, and the inner wall of the threaded hole is threadedly connected with the surface of the screw rod 701, the moving block 702 can move on the screw rod 701 by the screw thread cooperation between the threaded hole and the screw rod 701, and then the moving block 702 drives the hose 601 to move. Then the uniform distribution of the feed on the feed trough is realized by the movement of the hose 601, thereby avoiding the fighting of pigs due to food fighting.
[0029] Working principle:
[0030] When the feed is stirred in the hopper box 1, due to the diversity of the feed, the viscosity and humidity of the feed are different, which causes part of the feed to easily remain on the bottom of the inner wall of the hopper box 1. These residual feeds are easy to mold and deteriorate after a long time of accumulation, which will produce harmful substances and threaten the health of pigs. When the feeding hopper works, the feed enters from the feed port 103, and then the multiple stirring rods 201 are driven to rotate by the motor a2 to stir and scatter the incoming feed. Then the gear a302 is driven to rotate by the motor b301. Since the gear b401 is engaged with the gear a302, and the gear b401 is engaged with the chain 501, when the gear a302 rotates, the chain 501 is driven to rotate, and then the scraper rotates on the inner wall of the hopper box 1, thereby cleaning the residual feed on the inner wall of the hopper box 1 and sending the residual feed to the discharge port, ensuring the hygiene and safety of the feed, and improving the utilization rate of the feed to some extent.
[0031] Due to the diversity of the feed, the viscosity and humidity of the feed are different when the feed is stirred in the hopper box 1, which causes part of the feed to be easily left on the bottom of the inner wall of the hopper box 1. These residual feeds are prone to mildew and deterioration after long-term accumulation, which can produce harmful substances and pose a threat to the health of pigs. When the feeding hopper is working, the feed enters from the feed port 103, then the multiple stirring rods 201 are driven to rotate by the motor a2 to stir and scatter the incoming feed, then the gear a302 is driven to rotate by the motor b301. Since the gear b401 is meshed and connected with the gear a302, and the gear b401 is meshed and connected with the chain 501, when the gear a302 rotates, it will drive the chain 501 to rotate, and in turn drive the scraper to rotate on the bottom of the inner wall of the hopper box 1, and in turn clean the feed left on the bottom of the inner wall of the hopper box 1, and send the residual feed to the discharge port, ensuring the hygiene and safety of the feed, and to some extent improving the utilization rate of the feed.
[0032] In the above embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own focus, and the parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment can be referred to the relevant description of other embodiments.
[0033] The above describes in detail the automatic feeding hopper of the pig farm provided by the embodiments of the present application.
