Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feed trough technology, and in particular to a chicken feed trough. Background Technology
[0002] In the daily production process of chicken farming, feed troughs are essential breeding equipment. Chickens need to eat regularly and in fixed quantities to maintain good growth and health. Feed troughs provide chickens with a stable and concentrated feeding area, and can accurately deliver various feeds that are suitable for the growth stage of the chickens, ensuring that each chicken has an equal opportunity to eat, which helps to scientific breeding and standardized management of the chicken flock.
[0003] Existing chicken feed troughs are often divided by only a wire frame. This simple method of separation has limited effectiveness and is difficult to truly regulate the chickens' feeding behavior. The chickens still easily interfere with each other and fight for food. More importantly, they lack an effective feeding structure. In most cases, the feed is simply poured directly into the feed trough by the farmers, resulting in the feed piling up haphazardly. When the chickens eat, they can only gather and scramble for the piling feed. The weaker chickens are often pushed to the side and do not get enough food, which leads to uneven growth among the chickens. Therefore, the above technical problems need to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a chicken feeder.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a chicken feed trough, including a base, a feed cylinder provided in the middle of the top surface of the base, a truncated cone provided inside the feed cylinder, a plurality of discharge ports equally spaced along the axial side of the bottom end of the feed cylinder, and a fixing ring provided on the periphery of the top surface of the base.
[0006] Preferably, a plurality of collars are equidistantly sleeved on the fixing ring, a separator rod is fixedly connected to the collar, and a mounting plate is fixedly connected to the end of the separator rod, the mounting plate abutting against the outer wall of the discharge cylinder.
[0007] Preferably, each of the feeding cylinders has a sliding groove at the mounting plate, and a locking bolt passes between the sliding groove and the mounting plate, with the locking nut of the locking bolt abutting against the inner wall of the feeding cylinder.
[0008] Preferably, the middle section of the separator bar is provided with a left clamp and a right clamp, and a plurality of fixing bolts are inserted between the left clamp and the right clamp.
[0009] Preferably, fixing blocks are symmetrically sleeved on both sides of the fixing ring, the lower end of the fixing block is inserted into the top surface of the outer wall of the chassis, and bolts are used to fix the fixing block to the outer wall of the chassis.
[0010] Preferably, the left and right clamping plates are provided with arc-shaped grooves corresponding to the shape of the dividing rod on their opposite surfaces, and the left and right clamping plates are fitted together to form a single clamping plate to hold the dividing rod.
[0011] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The combination of the chassis and the feeding cylinder facilitates centralized feed placement, improving the accuracy of feed delivery and enabling orderly feeding. Furthermore, the combination of the cone-shaped structure inside the feeding cylinder and the discharge port facilitates dispersed feed discharge, improving uniformity and allowing chickens to eat evenly. The combination of the fixing ring, the collar, and the dividing rod facilitates the construction of a stable dividing structure, improving the dividing effect and thus defining the chickens' feeding space. The combination of the mounting plate, the sliding groove, and the locking bolts facilitates flexible adjustment of the dividing rod position, improving adjustment flexibility and adapting to different farming scenarios. The combination of the dividing rod, the left clamp, the right clamp, and the fixing bolts strengthens the stability of the dividing rod, improving structural stability and solving the problem of poor dividing effect in existing wire frames, reducing interference with chicken feeding. Finally, it solves the problem of existing chicken feed troughs where feed is directly dumped and piled up in one place, resulting in uneven feeding and difficulty for weaker individuals to eat.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0019] Example: See Figure 1-4 This utility model discloses a chicken feed trough, including a base plate 1. A feed cylinder 2 is located in the center of the top surface of the base plate 1. A truncated cone 12 is located inside the feed cylinder 2. Multiple discharge ports 11 are equidistantly distributed along the axial side of the bottom end of the feed cylinder 2. A fixing ring 3 is located on the periphery of the top surface of the base plate 1. The base plate 1 serves as the basic support for the entire feed trough, providing a stable platform. The feed cylinder 2, located in the center of the top surface of the base plate 1, is used to hold feed. The truncated cone 12 inside guides the feed to flow in all directions. Combined with the multiple discharge ports 11 at the bottom end, the feed is dispersed, preventing accumulation and facilitating easy feeding for the chickens from different directions. The fixing ring 3 is located on the periphery of the top surface of the base plate 1, laying the foundation for subsequent partitioning structures and helping to regulate the chickens' feeding range. Multiple collars are equidistantly fitted onto the fixing ring 3, and partition rods 4 are fixedly connected to the collars. A mounting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the end of the partition rods 4. The mounting plate 5 abuts against the outer wall of the feed cylinder 2. The fixing ring 3, together with the collar and the dividing rod 4, cleverly constructs a dividing system, dividing the feed trough into multiple relatively independent feeding areas, reducing the chaos and fighting among chickens caused by competing for food. The mounting plate 5 abuts against the outer wall of the feed cylinder 2, which not only enhances the stability of the dividing structure, but also provides a certain auxiliary support for the feed cylinder 2, making the entire device structure more compact. The feed cylinder 2 is provided with sliding grooves at the mounting plate 5. Locking bolts 6 are inserted between the sliding grooves and the mounting plate 5. The locking nuts of the locking bolts 6 abut against the inner wall of the feed cylinder 2. The design of the sliding grooves and locking bolts 6 allows the position of the mounting plate 5 and the connected dividing rod 4 to be flexibly adjusted as needed. Farmers can quickly change the size of the dividing area according to the actual breeding conditions such as the number and size of the chickens, flexibly adapt to different breeding scenarios, and improve the versatility of the feed trough.
[0020] In this utility model, a left clamping plate 9 and a right clamping plate 10 are provided on the middle section of the separator rod 4. Multiple fixing bolts 7 are inserted between the left clamping plate 9 and the right clamping plate 10. The left clamping plate 9 and the right clamping plate 10, in conjunction with the fixing bolts 7, tightly clamp the middle section of the separator rod 4, significantly enhancing the stability of the separator rod 4 and preventing deformation and loosening due to frequent contact and squeezing by chickens during long-term use. This extends the service life of the entire separator structure and maintains a good separator effect. Fixing blocks 8 are symmetrically fitted on both sides of the fixing ring 3. The lower end of the fixing block 8 is inserted into the top surface of the outer wall of the chassis 1. The fixing blocks 8 are fixed to the outer surface of the chassis 1. Bolts are used to fix the walls together. This connection between the fixing block 8 and the base plate 1 firmly fixes the fixing ring 3 to the base plate 1, further improving the stability of the overall structure of the feed trough. The opposite surfaces of the left clamping plate 9 and the right clamping plate 10 are provided with arc-shaped grooves corresponding to the shape of the dividing rod 4. The two clamping plates 9 and 10 are fitted together to form a whole clamping plate to hold the dividing rod 4. The arc-shaped groove fits the shape of the dividing rod 4, so that after the left clamping plate 9 and the right clamping plate 10 are spliced together, they can fit tightly with the dividing rod 4, increase the contact area, firmly hold the dividing rod 4, stabilize the dividing space, and create a more orderly feeding environment for the chickens.
[0021] Working principle: When using this utility model, firstly, the fixing ring 3 is fixed to the top surface of the chassis 1, and multiple collars are equidistantly sleeved on the fixing ring 3. The dividing rod 4 connected by the collars extends towards the feed cylinder 2, and the mounting plate 5 at the end abuts against the outer wall of the feed cylinder 2, thereby dividing multiple feeding areas. Farmers can also flexibly adjust the position of the mounting plate 5 and the dividing rod 4 according to the actual breeding situation, using the sliding groove and locking bolt 6 on the feed cylinder 2, to accurately determine the size of the divided area and adapt to flocks of different numbers and sizes. In the middle section of the dividing rod 4, the left clamping plate... 9 and the right clamp 10 are tightly clamped to the separator 4 by means of the fixing bolt 7. The arc grooves on the opposite sides of the two fit the shape of the separator 4 and fit tightly, which strengthens the stability of the separator 4 and prevents the chickens from squeezing and bumping each other, causing the separator structure to deform. This maintains an orderly feeding zone for a long time. Finally, various chicken feeds are poured into the feed hopper 2. The cone 12 in the feed hopper 2 will guide the feed to slide to the sides and fall evenly into the feeding area of the base plate 1 through the discharge port 11. If the chicken feed is not dispersed, the base plate 1 can be rotated appropriately to discharge the feed through the discharge port 11.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
