[0018] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0019] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides an adjustable angle automatic feeding trough structure for pig farming, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. This utility model, by setting up a feed storage box and a feed trough, allows the cover to be opened to add feed into the feed storage box for storage. Then, the cover is closed and secured with buckles. When it is necessary to feed the pigs, the cylinder can be activated to raise the baffle, opening the discharge port. The feed in the feed storage box will slide down into the feed trough along the discharge port. When there is enough feed in the feed trough, the cylinder will lower the baffle and insert it into the discharge port to block the discharge port. The feed in the feed trough can then automatically feed the pigs.

[0021] 2. By setting an adjustment component, when the remaining feed at the bottom of the feed trough is inconvenient for pigs to eat, the motor can be started to drive the screw to rotate, so that the screw drives the slider to slide along the guide rod, and the slider drives the feed trough to flip through the support rod. In this way, the angle of the feed trough can be adjusted, so that the remaining feed at the bottom of the feed trough rolls to the opening of the feed trough, making it easier for pigs to eat, thereby reducing the amount of feed left in the feed trough and reducing waste.

[0032] This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0033] Please see Figures 1-3An adjustable-angle automatic feeding trough structure for pig farming includes a support base 1, a feed storage box 2, a feed trough 3, and an adjustment component 4. The feed storage box 2 is fixedly installed on the support base 1, and the feed trough 3 is hinged to one side of the support base 1. Multiple spaced partitions 31 are fixedly installed inside the feed trough 3. A cover plate 21 is hinged to the top of the feed storage box 2 and fixed to the feed storage box 2 by a latch 22. A discharge port 23 is provided on the side of the feed storage box 2 near the feed trough 3. A baffle assembly 24 is provided above the discharge port 23. The baffle assembly 24 includes a baffle 241 slidably installed inside the discharge port 23 and components for driving the baffle 241 to rise and fall. Cylinder 242 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of feed storage box 2. By setting up feed storage box 2 and feed trough 3, cover plate 21 can be opened to add feed into feed storage box 2 for storage. Then cover plate 21 is closed and secured with buckle 22. When it is necessary to feed pigs, cylinder 242 can be started to drive baffle 241 to rise, so that discharge port 23 is opened. Feed in feed storage box 2 will slide down along discharge port 23 into feed trough 3. When there is enough feed in feed trough 3, cylinder 242 drives baffle 241 to fall down and insert into discharge port 23 to block discharge port 23. Feed in feed trough 3 can be used to feed pigs.

[0034] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly 4 is disposed within the support base 1. The adjustment assembly 4 includes a screw 41 rotatably mounted within the support base 1 and a motor 42 for driving the screw 41 to rotate. The motor 42 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the support base 1. The screw 41 is horizontally arranged, and a slider 43 is threadedly connected to the screw 41. A support rod 44 is hinged between the slider 43 and the material trough 3. A guide rod 45 parallel to the screw 41 is fixedly mounted inside the support base 1. The slider 43 is slidably sleeved on the guide rod 45. The support base 1 is close to the material trough 3. A strip-shaped hole 11 is provided on one side of the feed trough 3, and a support rod 44 passes through the strip-shaped hole 11. By setting an adjustment component 4, when the remaining feed at the bottom of the feed trough 3 is inconvenient for pigs to eat, the motor 42 can be started to drive the screw 41 to rotate, so that the screw 41 drives the slider 43 to slide along the guide rod 45, and the slider 43 drives the feed trough 3 to flip through the support rod 44. Thus, the angle of the feed trough 3 can be adjusted, so that the remaining feed at the bottom of the feed trough 3 rolls to the opening of the feed trough 3, making it easier for pigs to eat, thereby reducing the amount of feed left in the feed trough 3 and reducing waste.

[0035] Furthermore, a controller 5 is fixedly installed on one side of the feed storage box 2. The cylinder 242 and the motor 42 are both electrically connected to the controller 5. By setting the controller 5, the cylinder 242 and the motor 42 can be automatically controlled.

[0036] In practical use, the working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0037] First, open the cover 21, add the feed into the feed storage box 2 for storage, and then close the cover 21 and secure it with the buckle 22.

[0038] When it is necessary to feed the pigs, the controller 5 can start the cylinder 242, which will cause the cylinder 242 to drive the baffle 241 to rise, thus opening the discharge port 23. The feed in the feed storage box 2 will slide down the discharge port 23 into the feed trough 3. When there is enough feed in the feed trough 3, the cylinder 242 will drive the baffle 241 to fall and insert into the discharge port 23, blocking the discharge port 23. The feed in the feed trough 3 can then be used to feed the pigs.

[0039] When the remaining feed at the bottom of the feed trough 3 is inconvenient for pigs to eat, the controller 5 can start the motor 42, which drives the screw 41 to rotate. The screw 41 then drives the slider 43 to slide along the guide rod 45, and the slider 43 drives the feed trough 3 to flip through the support rod 44. This allows the angle of the feed trough 3 to be adjusted, so that the remaining feed at the bottom of the feed trough 3 rolls to the opening of the feed trough 3, making it easier for pigs to eat.

[0040] In summary, the adjustable angle automatic feeding trough structure for pig farming, by setting the adjustment component 4, allows the angle of the feeding trough 3 to be adjusted when the remaining feed at the bottom of the feeding trough 3 is inconvenient for the pigs to eat. This causes the remaining feed at the bottom of the feeding trough 3 to roll to the opening of the feeding trough 3, making it easier for the pigs to eat. This reduces the amount of feed left in the feeding trough 3 and reduces waste.

[0041] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the technical features of this utility model are not limited thereto. Any simple changes, equivalent substitutions, or modifications made based on this utility model to solve essentially the same technical problems and achieve essentially the same technical effects are all covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
