Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cattle farm equipment, specifically a water supply device for cattle farms. Background Technology

[0002] For example, patent application number 202121246739.2 published on the China Patent Network, entitled "A Water Supply Device for Cattle Farms," ​​includes an installation rod fixedly installed in the cattle shed. A protective sleeve is welded to the top of the installation rod, and a water inlet pipe is provided at the inner end of the protective sleeve. A through hole is opened on the outer side of the protective sleeve. A movable block is provided on the outer surface of the top of the installation rod, and a fixing ring is fixedly installed on the outer side of the movable block. A container tank is connected to the movable block through the fixing ring. The top of the container tank is connected to the through hole through a retractable corrugated pipe. An inner cavity is opened at the inner end of the movable block, and a guide rail is fixedly installed at the inner end of the inner cavity. This water supply device for cattle farms, equipped with a container tank and a corrugated pipe, allows a slider to slide on the guide rail in the inner cavity by rotating a positioning bolt. This causes the slider to press against the installation rod, fixing the positions of the movable block and the container tank. The liftable structure allows for synchronous adjustment to adapt to the growth cycle of beef cattle.

[0003] However, the existing water supply system is relatively simple, mainly injecting liquid through fixed water pipes. The difference in drinking height between calves and adult cattle means that the water level needs to be flexibly adjusted according to the growth cycle. Fixed water levels result in calves being exposed to the external environment for a long time during their growth cycle, which can lead to the growth of bacteria.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to redesign and modify the water supply system used in cattle farms. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a water supply device for cattle farms, which has the advantage of flexibly adjusting the water level. This solves the problem that the existing water supply devices have a relatively simple water supply method, which mainly injects liquid by fixing the water pipe. However, the drinking height difference between calves and adult cattle means that the water level needs to be flexibly adjusted according to the growth cycle. A fixed water level leads to the problem that calves are exposed to the external environment for a long time during their growth cycle, which can cause bacteria to grow.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a water supply device for cattle farms, comprising a water tank;

[0007] A pool of water located at the bottom of the water tank;

[0008] The bottom of the water tank is connected to a water supply pipe located inside the water pool. The bottom of the water tank is also connected to a water level sensor located on one side of the water supply pipe. When the bottom end of the water level sensor is exposed to the external environment, external air can enter the water tank and cause the liquid inside the water tank to enter the water pool through the water supply pipe. The surface of the water level sensor is connected to a corrugated pipe, which allows the water level sensor to contract. The bottom of the water tank is equipped with an adjustment structure that can adjust the length of the corrugated pipe.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the adjustment structure includes a guide plate fixedly connected to the surface of the corrugated pipe, a bracket fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank, and a lever movably connected to the inner side of the bracket via a pin. The side of the lever away from the bracket extends to the bottom of the guide plate, and the lever can push the guide plate to rise and fall vertically when it swings.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, guide rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the water tank, and the bottom end of the guide rod passes through the guide plate and is slidably connected to the guide plate.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a vertical plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank, and a transmission rod is movably connected to the inner side of the vertical plate via a bearing. Both ends of the transmission rod are fixedly connected to a rotating wheel, and both sides of the lever are fixedly connected to a sleeve plate. The sleeve plate is located outside the rotating wheel, and both sides of the rotating wheel are fixedly connected to a sliding rod located inside the sleeve plate. The sliding rod is slidably connected to the sleeve plate.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, a shielding frame is fixedly connected to the surface of the water tank, and the water pool is located at the bottom of the shielding frame.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, an adjustment frame is fixedly connected to both sides of the surface of the pool, a crank is fixedly connected to the outer side of the lever, the side of the crank away from the lever extends to the outer side of the adjustment frame and is fixedly connected to a push rod located inside the adjustment frame, the push rod and the adjustment frame are slidably connected, and the crank can push the pool to the outside of the shielding frame through the push rod.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] 1. This utility model solves the problem of fixed water level in existing water supply devices by designing a water level sensing tube and a corrugated pipe, which cannot be flexibly adjusted according to the difference in drinking height between calves and adult cattle. At the same time, it avoids the problem of bacteria growing in calves due to prolonged exposure to the external environment during their growth cycle caused by a fixed water level, thus improving the flexibility and hygiene of the water supply device.

[0016] 2. This utility model achieves the adjustment of the length of the corrugated pipe by means of a guide plate fixedly connected to the surface of the corrugated pipe, a bracket at the bottom of the water tank, and a movable lever. This adjustment structure is simple and easy to implement, convenient to operate, and can accurately control the water level to meet the drinking needs of cattle at different growth stages.

[0017] 3. This utility model uses a guide rod that passes through the bottom end of the guide plate and slides through it, which not only enhances the stability of the guide plate but also ensures its stability during vertical lifting. At the same time, the guide rod also serves as a limit to prevent the guide plate from shifting or shaking during lifting.

[0018] 4. This utility model drives the rotating wheel and sliding rod to slide within the sleeve plate by rotating the transmission rod, thereby driving the lever to swing. This realizes remote control of the adjustment structure, improves the convenience and flexibility of operation. At the same time, since the sliding rod is slidably connected to the sleeve plate, the stability and accuracy of the lever during the swing process can be ensured.

[0019] 5. The design of the shielding frame in this utility model not only beautifies the appearance of the water supply device, but also plays a protective role. It can shield components such as the water tank and water level sensing tube, preventing cattle or other objects from directly contacting these components, thereby ensuring the safety and hygiene of the water supply device.

[0020] 6. This utility model achieves the adjustment of the water tank position through the combination of the adjusting frame, crank and push rod. When the water tank needs to be cleaned or maintained, the crank can be rotated to make the push rod slide inside the adjusting frame, thereby pushing the water tank to the outside of the shielding frame. This not only facilitates the cleaning and maintenance of the water tank, but also improves the overall flexibility and practicality of the water supply device. Attached Figure Description

[0027] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides a water supply device for cattle farms, including a water tank 1;

[0028] A water pool 2 is located at the bottom of water tank 1;

[0029] The bottom of the water tank 1 is connected to a water supply pipe 3 located inside the water pool 2. The bottom of the water tank 1 is also connected to a water level sensor 4 located on one side of the water supply pipe 3. When the bottom end of the water level sensor 4 is exposed to the external environment, external air can enter the water tank 1 and cause the liquid inside the water tank 1 to enter the water pool 2 through the water supply pipe 3. The surface of the water level sensor 4 is connected to a corrugated pipe 5, which can be contracted through the corrugated pipe 5. The bottom of the water tank 1 is provided with an adjustment structure 6, which can adjust the length of the corrugated pipe 5.

The side of the lever 9 away from the bracket 8 extends to the bottom of the guide plate 7. When the lever 9 swings, it can push the guide plate 7 to rise and fall vertically.

[0031] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the length of the corrugated pipe 5 is adjusted by the guide plate 7 fixedly connected to the surface of the corrugated pipe 5, the bracket 8 at the bottom of the water tank 1, and the movable lever 9. This adjustment structure 6 is simple and easy to implement, convenient to operate, and can accurately control the water level to meet the drinking needs of cattle at different growth stages.

[0032] refer to Figure 4 Guide rods 10 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the water tank 1. The bottom end of the guide rod 10 passes through the guide plate 7 and is slidably connected to the guide plate 7.

[0033] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the bottom end of the guide rod 10 passes through the guide plate 7 and is slidably connected to the guide plate 7. This not only enhances the stability of the guide plate 7, but also ensures the stability of the guide plate 7 during vertical lifting. At the same time, the guide rod 10 also plays a limiting role, preventing the guide plate 7 from shifting or shaking during lifting.

[0034] refer to Figure 4 A vertical plate 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank 1. A transmission rod 12 is movably connected to the inner side of the vertical plate 11 via a bearing. A rotating wheel 13 is fixedly connected to both ends of the transmission rod 12. A sleeve plate 14 is fixedly connected to both sides of the lever 9. The sleeve plate 14 is located outside the rotating wheel 13. A sliding rod 15 located inside the sleeve plate 14 is fixedly connected to both sides of the rotating wheel 13. The sliding rod 15 is slidably connected to the sleeve plate 14.

[0035] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the rotation of the transmission rod 12 drives the rotating wheel 13 and the slide rod 15 to slide within the sleeve plate 14, thereby driving the lever 9 to swing, realizing remote control of the adjustment structure 6, improving the convenience and flexibility of operation. At the same time, since the slide rod 15 is slidably connected to the sleeve plate 14, the stability and accuracy of the lever 9 during the swing process can be ensured.

[0036] refer to Figure 1 A shielding frame 16 is fixedly connected to the surface of the water tank 1, and the water pool 2 is located at the bottom of the shielding frame 16.

[0037] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the design of the shielding frame 16 not only beautifies the appearance of the water supply device, but also plays a protective role. It can shield components such as the water tank 2 and the water level sensing tube 4, preventing cattle or other objects from directly contacting these components, thereby ensuring the safety and hygiene of the water supply device.

[0038] refer to Figure 2 An adjustment frame 17 is fixedly connected to both sides of the surface of the pool 2. A crank 18 is fixedly connected to the outside of the lever 9. The side of the crank 18 away from the lever 9 extends to the outside of the adjustment frame 17 and is fixedly connected to a push rod 19 located inside the adjustment frame 17. The push rod 19 and the adjustment frame 17 are slidably connected. The crank 18 can push the pool 2 to the outside of the shielding frame 16 through the push rod 19.

[0039] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the position of the water tank 2 is adjusted by the combination of the adjusting frame 17, the crank 18 and the push rod 19. When the water tank 2 needs to be cleaned or maintained, the crank 18 can be rotated to make the push rod 19 slide inside the adjusting frame 17, thereby pushing the water tank 2 to the outside of the shielding frame 16. This not only facilitates the cleaning and maintenance of the water tank 2, but also improves the overall flexibility and practicality of the water supply device.

[0040] The working principle and usage of this utility model are as follows: The device includes a water tank 1, the bottom of which is connected to a water pool 2 for collecting and storing water flowing out of the water tank 1. The bottom of the water tank 1 is connected not only to a water supply pipe 3 located inside the water pool 2, but also to a water level sensing tube 4. One side of the water level sensing tube 4 is connected to the inside of the water tank 1, while the other side is exposed to the water pool 2 or the external environment. When the bottom end of the water level sensing tube 4 is exposed to the external environment, if the water level inside the water tank 1 drops, causing the bottom end of the water level sensing tube 4 to no longer be covered by water, then external air can enter the water tank 1 through the water level sensing tube 4. This change triggers the device's automatic water supply mechanism: the liquid inside the water tank 1 flows into the water pool 2 through the water supply pipe 3 under gravity or other possible assistance, providing drinking water for the cattle. To adjust the water level to meet the different drinking height requirements of calves and adult cattle, the device is equipped with an adjustment structure 6. The adjustment structure 6 adjusts the water level by changing the effective length of the water level sensing tube 4. Specifically, the surface of the water level sensing tube 4 is connected to... A bellows 5 is provided, which can contract and expand like a spring. By adjusting the length of the bellows 5, the portion of the bottom end of the water level sensor 4 exposed to the water tank 2 or the external environment can be changed, thereby indirectly regulating the water level inside the water tank 1. A vertical plate 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the water tank 1. A transmission rod 12 is movably connected to the vertical plate 11 via bearings. Both ends of the transmission rod 12 are fixedly connected to rotating wheels 13. Sleeve plates 14 are fixedly connected to both sides of the lever 9. The sleeve plates 14 are located on the rotating wheels 13. On the outside, both sides of the rotating wheel 13 are fixedly connected to the sliding rods 15 located inside the sleeve plate 14. When the transmission rod 12 is rotated, the rotating wheel 13 will drive the sliding rods 15 to slide inside the sleeve plate 14, thereby pushing the lever 9 to swing. When swinging, it can push the guide plate 7 to move vertically up and down. During the swinging process, the lever 9 can use the crank 18 to squeeze the push rod 19, so that the push rod 19 carries the water pool 2 to move synchronously to the outside of the shielding frame 16, changing the shielding area of ​​the shielding frame 16 on the water pool 2, and meeting the drinking needs of cattle of different sizes.

[0041] In summary, the water supply system for this cattle farm, through the design of the water level sensor 4 and corrugated pipe 5, solves the problem of fixed water levels in existing water supply systems and the inability to flexibly adjust according to the differences in drinking height between calves and adult cattle. At the same time, it avoids the problem of bacteria growth caused by calves being exposed to the external environment for a long time during their growth cycle due to fixed water levels, thus improving the flexibility and hygiene of the water supply system.
