Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of bamboo rat feeding equipment, specifically relating to a bamboo rat feeding and feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] Bamboo rats (scientific name: *Rhizomyidae*) are animals belonging to the family Rhizomyidae and the genus *Rhizomyidae*. They are large, meaty, delicious, and nutritious, with thick, soft fur, and have high economic and medicinal value. In my country, they are now farmed on a large scale, becoming one of the economically viable aquaculture industries. Currently, artificial breeding of bamboo rats typically employs a batch-isolated feeding method, requiring individual feeding of each rat, resulting in high labor costs, high labor intensity, and low efficiency. Patent CN207461136U discloses a bamboo rat feeding device, which includes a material conveying unit and a dispensing unit. The dispensing unit uses a single quantitative motor to control the movement of a quantitative slider via a worm gear to adjust the storage space in the storage bin, thereby adjusting the feed amount. Additionally, the movement of the quantitative slider pushes a discharge plate to close the storage bin and pushes a stop block to open the discharge plate. While this patent offers cost-effectiveness, ease of operation, and convenient production, it suffers from drawbacks. For easily breakable feed, the feed is easily crushed by the feeding screw during transportation, affecting the bamboo rats' feeding, wasting feed, and resulting in poor dispensing efficiency. Therefore, a bamboo rat feeding device is needed to solve these technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned deficiencies in existing technologies, this utility model provides a bamboo rat feeding device, comprising a feeding box. Multiple feeding hoppers are evenly distributed along the length of the bottom of the feeding box. Each feeding hopper is connected to a feeding pipe at its bottom, and each feeding pipe is connected to a corresponding bamboo rat feeding trough via a conduit. The top of the feeding box has an elongated inlet, which is fitted with a storage tank. The bottom of the storage tank has a discharge pipe with a valve. The discharge pipe extends into the inlet. The storage tank is movably mounted on the feeding box via a movable component. When the storage tank reciprocates along the length of the inlet, the valve opens, and the material in the storage tank is evenly distributed into the feeding box. The material then enters the feeding pipe through the feeding hopper for directional feeding, thus achieving uniform feeding. This process avoids material breakage and particle size reduction caused by transportation and feeding, which could affect the bamboo rats' ability to eat the material.

[0004] Preferably, the moving component includes two synchronous linear modules, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the feed inlet and parallel to the length of the feed inlet. Each linear module has a slide table fixedly connected to a support plate, and both support plates are fixedly connected to the storage tank. The slide tables of the linear modules drive the storage tank to reciprocate along the length of the feed inlet. When the valve opens, the material in the storage tank is evenly distributed into the distribution box. The material then enters the feeding pipe through the hopper for directional feeding, thereby achieving a uniform feeding operation.

[0005] Preferably, guide rods are provided above the two linear modules, and guide blocks are slidably sleeved on each of the two guide rods. Both guide blocks are fixedly connected to the storage tank. This arrangement serves a guiding function, making the movement of the storage tank more stable and efficient.

[0006] This utility model also includes other components that enable the bamboo rat feeding device to function properly, such as control components for the forward and reverse motors, control components for the switching valves, and control components for the linear module, all of which are conventional technologies in the field. Furthermore, any devices or components not specified in this utility model, such as the linear module and the switching valves, employ conventional technologies and equipment in the field.

[0007] Working principle: The storage tank reciprocates along the length of the inlet. When the valve opens, the material in the storage tank is evenly distributed into the distribution box. The material then enters the feeding pipe through the hopper for directional feeding, thus achieving uniform feeding. This process avoids material breakage and particle size reduction caused by transportation and distribution, which could affect the bamboo rats' ability to eat the material. It improves distribution efficiency and effect.

[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by moving the storage tank, the material falls evenly into the cloth box, improving the uniformity of the cloth distribution. Each hopper can accurately feed material in a directional manner, avoiding material breakage and particle size reduction caused by transportation and cloth distribution, which would affect the bamboo rats' consumption. This improves cloth distribution efficiency and effect. Attached Figure Description

Multiple partitions 12 are provided inside the feeding box 2, dividing the box into multiple feeding chambers, each corresponding to a feeding hopper 3. Each feeding pipe 15 is connected to a corresponding bamboo rat feeding trough via a conduit. A long, narrow inlet is provided at the top of the feeding box 2, and a storage tank 1 is fitted to the inlet. A discharge pipe is provided at the bottom of the storage tank 1, and a switch valve is provided on the discharge pipe. The switch valve is an electric valve. The discharge pipe extends into the inlet. The storage tank 1 is movably mounted on the feeding box 2 via a movable component. The storage tank reciprocates along the length of the inlet. When the valve opens, the material in the storage tank is evenly distributed into the distribution box 2. The material then enters the discharge pipe 15 through the discharge hopper 3 for directional feeding, thus achieving uniform feeding. This process avoids material breakage and particle size reduction caused by transportation and distribution, which could affect the bamboo rats' ability to eat the material.

[0018] The moving component includes two synchronous linear modules 13, which are respectively located on both sides of the feed inlet and parallel to its length. Support plates 7 are fixedly connected to the slides 14 of each linear module 13, and both support plates 7 are fixedly connected to the storage tank 1. The slides 14 of the linear modules 13 drive the storage tank to reciprocate along the length of the feed inlet. When the valve opens, the material in the storage tank is evenly distributed into the distribution box 2. The material then enters the discharge pipe 15 through the discharge hopper 3 for directional feeding, thus achieving uniform feeding.
