A discharge outlet 3 is provided at the lower end of the outer shell 1. An inclined plate 4 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the outer shell 1. A horizontal plate 5 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the outer shell 1. A movable component 6 is provided between the horizontal plate 5 and the inclined plate 4. The movable component 6 includes a connecting plate 63 slidably connected to the side of the inclined plate 4. A bottom plate 61 is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting plate 63. A baffle 62 is slidably installed inside the bottom plate 61. Vertical plates 64 are fixedly installed on both sides of the bottom plate 61. A spring 68 is fixedly installed between the inner wall of the vertical plate 64 and the lower wall of the horizontal plate 5. A movable plate 65 is movably installed on the vertical plate 64. A telescopic plate 66 is fixedly installed between the upper and lower walls of the vertical plate 64 and the movable plate 65. A feed guide trough 12 is provided inside the outer shell 1.

[0021] In this embodiment: When using this device to feed, the feed can first be poured into the outer shell 1 through the feed inlet 2. After entering the outer shell 1, the feed temporarily stays on the inclined plate 4 and can slide down along the inclined plate 4. The feed can fall down into the bottom plate 61. As the weight of the feed on the bottom plate 61 gradually increases, the bottom plate 61 slowly moves downward. During the movement, the upper feed is blocked by the movable plate 65 to prevent it from sliding down further. When the bottom plate 61 slides down to the point where the feed can no longer enter the bottom plate 61, the bottom plate 61 contains the amount of feed for one feeding. When feeding is needed, the baffle 62 can be pulled out from the bottom plate 61, and the feed can then fall down and flow into the discharge port 3. In actual use, this quantitative feeding device for livestock farming can control the amount of feed fed in a single feeding. It can automatically complete the measurement of the amount of feed fed in a single feeding without the need for manual weighing of feed, and the feed feeding amount is accurately controlled.

[0022] Example 2: This example is an improvement on Example 1. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 - Figure 4 The movable plate 65 is rotatably mounted with a rotating rod 67 inside. A gear 7 is fixedly mounted on one end of the rotating rod 67. The outer wall of the vertical plate 64 is fixedly provided with convex teeth 8 at equal intervals. The gear 7 meshes with the convex teeth 8. By rotating the rotating rod 67, the movable plate 65 can be moved up and down, thereby achieving the effect of controlling the amount of feed temporarily retained on the bottom plate 61.

[0023] The outer housing 1 has a sliding groove 14 on both sides of its sidewalls. The two ends of the rotating rod 67 are slidably connected in the sliding groove 14. The outer housing 1 has a slot 11 on both sides of its sidewalls. The baffle 62 is slidably connected in the slot 11. Both the rotating rod 67 and the baffle 62 can be operated from the outside of the outer housing 1.

[0024] The outer shell 1 has two sliding grooves 13 on one side and two sides of the bottom plate 61. Limiting components 9 are provided on both sides of the bottom plate 61. The limiting components 9 include connecting blocks 91 fixedly installed on the side wall of the bottom plate 61. The connecting blocks 91 are slidably connected in the sliding grooves 13. The bottom plate 61 filled with feed can be limited and fixed by the limiting components 9.

[0025] The connecting block 91 has an internal mounting groove 92. A locking block 93 is slidably mounted on the inner wall of the mounting groove 92. A spring 94 is fixedly mounted between the side wall of the locking block 93 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 92. The spring 94 can provide an outward pushing force to the locking block 93. The lower outer wall of the locking block 93 is an arc-shaped surface, which can automatically push it into the mounting groove 92 when it is squeezed.

[0026] Fixing blocks 10 are fixedly installed on both sides of the outer casing 1. The fixing blocks 10 are respectively set on the side of the slide groove 13. When the locking block 93 moves, it contacts the fixing block 10. The fixing and limiting of the base plate 61 can be completed by the cooperation of the locking block 93 and the fixing block 10.

[0027] In this embodiment: When using this device for feeding livestock, the amount of feed needs to be adjusted according to the growth period of the livestock and the number of livestock being fed. This can be achieved by rotating the rotating rod 67. When the rotating rod 67 rotates, it drives the gear 7 on the side to engage with the tooth 8, causing the rotating rod 67 to move up and down along the tooth 8. During this movement, the movable plate 65 moves up and down, changing the distance between the movable plate 65 and the bottom plate 61. The amount of feed that can be temporarily retained between them also changes accordingly. When the amount of feed in the bottom plate 61 increases, the bottom plate 61 moves downward and drives the connecting block 91 on the side wall to slide along the groove. 13. Slide downwards. During the sliding process, the locking block 93 contacts the fixing block 10 and is pushed into the mounting groove 92. At this time, it can continue to slide downwards. When it moves to the lower end of the fixing block 10, the locking block 93 is pushed outwards again under the action of the spring 94, completing the automatic fixing and limiting of the bottom plate 6. When the device is in use, the amount of feed fed at one time can be adjusted by rotating the rotating rod 67. When the feed on the bottom plate 61 reaches the amount of feed fed at one time, the weight of the feed will automatically limit and fix the bottom plate 61 through the cooperation between the limiting component 9 and the fixing block 10, so that the feed on the bottom plate 61 can be completely discharged.
