Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of peripartum dairy cow feeding, specifically a peripartum dairy cow nutrient complex feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] The peripartum period for dairy cows refers to the physiological state of dairy cows from 15 days before calving to 15 days after calving. This stage encompasses the late dry period and early lactation, and is a crucial period in dairy cow production management. Dairy cow nutritional complexes refer to a combination of various nutrients that provide comprehensive nutritional support to dairy cows, typically including vitamins, minerals, and other essential nutrients. These complexes play a vital role in dairy cow feeding, improving their production performance and health. Existing peripartum dairy cow nutritional complexes are administered by injecting them into a fixed feeding trough. Since dairy cows vary in size, the required trough height differs, making it inconvenient to adjust the trough height as needed. Furthermore, the troughs tend to accumulate at the corners, and their weight hinders disassembly and cleaning, negatively impacting usability. Therefore, we propose a peripartum dairy cow nutritional complex feeding device. Utility Model Content

[0020] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0021] This embodiment is a feeding device for peripartum dairy cow nutritional complexes.
[0022] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the device includes a feeding trough 1, a base 2 at the lower end of the feeding trough 1, and an adjustment mechanism 3 between the feeding trough 1 and the base 2. The adjustment mechanism 3 includes a feed box 4, a first side plate 5, a fixing bolt 6, an anti-slip plate 7, a base 8, a second side plate 9, a fixing plate 10, a groove 11, a mounting bracket 12, and a cylinder 13. The two sets of fixing plates 10 are located on both sides of the upper outer surface of the base 2, the mounting bracket 12 is located at the upper end of the middle of the fixing plate 10, the cylinder 13 is located in the middle of the mounting bracket 12, the second side plate 9 is located on the upper outer surface of the cylinder 13, and the groove 11 is opened on the lower outer surface of the second side plate 9.
[0023] The base 8 is located on one outer surface of the second side plate 9, the feeding trough 1 is located on the upper outer surface of the base 8, and the feed box 4 is located at the upper end of the feeding trough 1; the anti-slip plate 7 is located at the lower end of the middle of the feeding trough 1, the two sets of first side plates 5 are located on both sides of the lower outer surface of the feed box 4, and the fixing bolt 6 is located in the middle of one outer surface of the first side plate 5; the feed box 4 and the feeding trough 1 are connected by insertion, the anti-slip plate 7 and the feeding trough 1 are fixedly connected, and the first side plate 5 is detachably connected to the feeding trough 1 by the fixing bolt 6; the second side plate 9 is slidably connected to the fixing plate 10 through the groove 11, and the cylinder 13 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 10 through the mounting bracket 12.
[0024] It should be noted that this utility model is a feeding device for peripartum dairy cows containing nutritional complexes. By placing the feed box 4 into the feeding trough 1 and attaching the bottom of the feed box 4 to the anti-slip plate 7 to limit the position of the feed box 4, the first side plate 5 is fixed to the feeding trough 1 by fixing bolts 6. The height of the feeding trough 1 is adjusted according to the height required by the dairy cow. The cylinder 13 is started by the external controller to push the second side plate 9 to slide along the fixing plate 10 through the groove 11, thereby lifting the base 8 and the feeding trough 1. This allows for easy adjustment of the height of the feeding trough 1 as needed, improving adaptability and facilitating the installation and removal of the feed box 4 from the feeding trough 1, as well as the disassembly and cleaning of the feed box 4.
