Abstract

The utility model discloses a chicken feed box capable of being automatically opened and closed, which comprises a first box body, and a frame body is rotatably connected onto the first box body. When poultry use the device, the poultry can tread the pedal to enable the frame body to tilt up, and meanwhile, the third rod body on the frame body and the second rod body on the baffle of the first box body are bound with the binding belt. In other words, when the poultry steps on the pedal, the pedal descends and drives the baffle to turn over together, so that the baffle does not block the opening groove any more, the poultry can stretch the head into the first box body for feeding, and after the poultry finishes feeding and the feet leave the pedal, the frame body can be lifted up due to the gravity of the weight bearing block, and the poultry can feed the feed conveniently. Meanwhile, the baffle plate can be lifted up due to the torsion of the spring, so that the baffle plate closes the open slot again, the poultry can be prevented from swinging the head or scrambling and the like, so that the chicken feed is prevented from being sprayed on the ground outside the feed box, the poultry can be prevented from entering the feed box to tread, the feed and the feed box are prevented from being polluted, and more feed is prevented from being wasted.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to chicken feed box technical field especially automatic opening and closing chicken feed box. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, poultry breeding industry as the important component in agricultural field, presents the situation of rapid development. Along with people living standard's improvement, the demand of poultry meat, poultry egg etc. product continues to climb, this directly promotes the continuous expansion of the scale of chicken industry, on the breeding mode, gradually from traditional extensive cultivation to the direction of change of intensification, scale. Large chicken farm has thousands of chickens, they are concentrated in the relatively small space and feed, this high density breeding mode although improved production efficiency, but also brought a series of management problems, and the chicken feeding problem is particularly prominent, the chicken feed box used at present stage adopts the open type feed box, and for the inherent characteristics of poultry, possibly in the process of poultry eating due to poultry head shaking or fighting action and make chicken feed spilled on the ground outside the feed box, and possibly some poultry enters the open type feed box and treads, causes the pollution of feed and feed box, therefore not only causes the waste of feed, and also can cause the pollution of feed in the feed box, leads to poultry not eating the contaminated feed, thereby excessively wastes the feed. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0003] The utility model discloses an automatic opening and closing chicken feed box which is provided to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme:

[0005] The automatic opening and closing chicken feed box comprises a first box body, a frame body rotatably connected to the first box body, a first rod body installed on the first box body, a baffle installed on the first rod body, springs connected to both ends of the baffle and the first rod body, two groups of third rod bodies installed on the frame body, two groups of second rod bodies installed on the baffle, a binding belt connected between the two groups of second rod bodies and the corresponding third rod bodies, a treading plate installed on the frame body, an opening slot formed in the first box body, a connecting rod installed on the frame body, and a weight block installed on the connecting rod.

[0006] Preferably, a second box body is attached to the first box body, a filter ring is installed in the second box body, two groups of clamping blocks are installed on the second box body, two groups of clamping grooves are installed on the first box body, and the two groups of clamping blocks are inserted into the corresponding clamping grooves.

[0007] Preferably, an inlet is installed on the second box body, and a cover body is installed on the inlet.

[0008] Preferably, a handle is installed on the cover body.

[0009] Preferably, the second housing has a transparent window.

[0010] Preferably, a discharge port is installed on the second housing.

[0011] Preferably, a flow guide block is installed inside the first box.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. The system consists of a first box, frame, first rod, baffle, spring, second rod, third rod, straps, and a foot pedal. Before use, the cover on the feed inlet is opened, and feed is poured into the second box. The feed will then be discharged from the discharge outlet into the first box. When poultry use the system, they will step on the foot pedal, causing the frame to tilt upwards. Simultaneously, the third rod on the frame is strapped to the second rod on the baffle of the first box. This means that when the poultry step on the foot pedal, the pedal lowers, causing the frame to tilt upwards. The baffle flips up, so it no longer blocks the opening slot, allowing poultry to stick their heads into the first box to eat. After the poultry finish eating, their feet leave the pedal, and the frame will lift up due to the weight of the load. At the same time, the baffle will also lift up due to the torque of the spring, causing the baffle to close the opening slot again. This prevents poultry from shaking their heads or fighting for the feed, which would cause the feed to spill on the ground outside the feed box. It also prevents poultry from entering the feed box and trampling on it, thus avoiding contamination of the feed and the feed box and preventing more feed waste.

[0014] 2. With the addition of a second chamber and a filter ring, when workers pour feed into the second chamber through the inlet, the feed will be intercepted and filtered by the filter ring inside the second chamber. This will separate out large pieces of feed or other impurities, thus preventing poultry from accidentally ingesting them and causing unnecessary harm. It will also ensure that the discharge port can discharge normally without clogging. Attached Figure Description
