Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of yak feeding technology, and more specifically, it relates to an automated feeding device for yak breeding. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of feeding yaks, in order to reduce the workload of operators, the feed hopper is usually fixedly connected to the tractor. When the tractor is moving, the feed is automatically discharged from the discharge hopper at the bottom of the feed hopper into the feed trough, thus realizing automatic feeding of yaks.
[0003] Based on the above, when feeding yaks, they tend to gather at the feed trough. During the process of feeding from the hopper to the feed trough, feed is easily spilled onto nearby yaks. This not only causes excessive consumption of feed, but also makes it easy for bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms to grow on the yaks, leading to skin diseases or other health problems. In addition, when yaks lick the feed off their bodies, they may ingest unclean feed, increasing their risk of disease. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an automated feeding device for yak farming. This device solves the problem that when feeding yaks, they tend to congregate at the feed trough. During the feeding process, feed is easily spilled onto nearby yaks as it is discharged from the hopper into the trough. This not only leads to excessive feed consumption but also causes bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms to grow on the yaks, potentially causing skin diseases or other health problems. Furthermore, when yaks lick the feed off their bodies, they ingest unclean feed, increasing their risk of illness.
[0005] The purpose and effectiveness of this utility model, an automated feeding device for yak farming, are achieved through the following specific technical means:
[0006] An automated feeding device for yak farming includes a storage hopper, a discharge hopper, a discharge auxiliary mechanism, a transmission rack, and a dispersing auxiliary mechanism. The discharge hopper is fixedly connected to the outer side of the bottom end face of the storage hopper; the discharge hopper is located directly below the discharge port at the bottom of the storage hopper; the discharge auxiliary mechanism is located inside the discharge hopper; the discharge auxiliary mechanism includes: transmission rollers and transmission belts, there are two transmission rollers, which are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the discharge hopper respectively, and the left transmission roller is coaxially fixedly connected to the outer side of the drive motor shaft; the transmission belt is wound around the outer side of the two transmission rollers; there are two sets of transmission racks, which are slidably arranged on the upper and lower sides of the left and right end faces of the discharge hopper respectively; the dispersing auxiliary mechanism is located between the right transmission roller and the transmission rack; a cleaning auxiliary mechanism is also provided between the discharge hopper and the transmission belt.
[0007] Furthermore, the expulsion auxiliary mechanism includes: incomplete gears, guide pillars, and connecting brackets. There are two incomplete gears, which are coaxially fixedly connected to the front and rear end faces of the right-end transmission roller. The incomplete gears on the same front and rear sides mesh with the transmission rack. There are two sets of guide pillars, which are slidably connected to the outer ends of the two sets of transmission racks. There are two connecting brackets, which are fixedly connected to the outer sides of the front and rear end faces of the discharge hopper. The connecting brackets on the same front and rear sides are fixedly connected to the guide pillars.
[0008] Furthermore, the expulsion auxiliary mechanism also includes: T-shaped brackets and drive screws. There are two T-shaped brackets, which are fixedly connected to the outer sides of the front and rear end faces of the discharge hopper, respectively. There are two sets of drive screws, which are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the two T-shaped brackets, respectively.
[0009] Furthermore, the expulsion auxiliary mechanism also includes: a positioning bracket, a positioning support ring, and a drive auxiliary block. There are two sets of positioning brackets, which are respectively fixedly connected to the outer ends of two sets of transmission racks. There are two sets of positioning support rings, which are respectively rotatably connected to the inner sides of the two sets of positioning brackets. The transverse cross-section of the positioning support ring is an I-shaped structure. There are two sets of drive auxiliary blocks, which are respectively fixedly connected to the inner sides of the two sets of positioning support rings. The drive auxiliary blocks on the same side are slidably connected to the outer side of the drive screw via threads.
[0010] Furthermore, an auxiliary impeller is coaxially fixedly connected to the outer end of the drive auxiliary block.
[0011] Furthermore, the cleaning auxiliary mechanism includes: a connecting guide and an elastic scraper, wherein the connecting guide is fixedly connected to the right end of the discharge hopper; the elastic scraper is elastically connected to the outer end of the connecting guide; and the elastic scraper is in contact with the transmission belt.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] In use, this invention utilizes the rotational force of the transmission roller to automatically drive the expulsion auxiliary mechanism when guiding feed. This causes the positioning support ring to rotate synchronously during sliding, thereby expelling the yaks. As the feed is guided into the feed trough, it keeps nearby yaks away from the trough, greatly preventing feed from adhering to the yaks and wasting feed. It also prevents the growth of bacteria and skin diseases caused by feed adhering to the yaks, ensuring the cleanliness of the feed ingested by the yaks, reducing the risk of disease, and further improving the effectiveness of this device in practical applications.
[0014] In use, this invention enables automatic cleaning of feed on the outside of the transmission belt, ensuring the normal operation of the transmission belt and the smoothness of feed feeding, thus further improving the working efficiency of the device in practical applications.
