Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of piglet feeding technology, specifically a dry and wet feed trough for piglet feeding. Background Technology

[0002] my country is a major pig-producing country. With the continuous development of the pig industry, the corresponding pig farming equipment also needs to be continuously improved to increase production and efficiency. Most of the existing pig feed troughs are still traditional ones that only provide feed. They need to be fed multiple times and the amount of feed cannot be controlled. The feed is usually not eaten completely and there will be residue. Pigs will not eat the leftover feed the next day, resulting in a lot of feed waste.

[0003] According to a public notice (Announcement No.: CN207836458U) of a pig free-feeding dry and wet feed trough, when the feeder finishes feeding, the pigs can raise the feeding rod themselves, allowing the feed in the storage hopper to continue falling into the feeding trough, thus enabling them to eat freely. In addition, the addition of a drinking mechanism allows the pigs to drink water while eating feed, realizing the function of a dry and wet feed trough, improving the taste of the feed, increasing the enjoyment of feeding for the pigs, and saving feeding time.

[0004] However, in actual use, although the above-mentioned equipment can enable pigs to raise the feeding rod on their own to eat freely, it is difficult for piglets to raise the feeding rod. Moreover, when multiple piglets are feeding, they are prone to squeezing each other, resulting in low feeding efficiency. In view of this, we propose a dry and wet feed trough for piglets. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dry and wet feed trough for piglet feeding, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a dry and wet feed trough for piglet feeding, comprising a body, an external water tank provided on the outer wall of the body, a quantity optimization component provided on the outer wall of the body, the quantity optimization component including a feeding bin, the feeding bin being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the body, a discharge bin being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feeding bin, an elastic telescopic rod being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the body, a feed trough being fixedly connected to the end of the elastic telescopic rod, a protective railing being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feed trough, a limit block being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feed trough, a baffle being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feed trough, and an upper shell being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the body;

[0007] An elastic telescopic plate is fixedly connected to the end of the upper shell. A toothed plate is fixedly connected to the end of the cover. An insert plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the body. A long plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the body. A toothed column is rotatably installed on the outer wall of the long plate. A second insert plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the body. A second toothed plate is slidably connected to the outer wall of the second insert plate. A clamping plate is fixedly connected to the end of the second toothed plate.

[0008] Preferably, the first toothed plate meshes with the toothed column, and the toothed column meshes with the second toothed plate, so that the first toothed plate can perform transmission smoothly.

[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the pallet is adapted to the inner wall of the feeding hopper, so that when the pallet enters the feeding hopper, it can smoothly block the feeding hopper, preventing subsequent feed from falling out.

[0010] Preferably, the centerline of the trough and the centerline of the elastic telescopic rod are on the same straight line, so that the elastic telescopic rod can smoothly drive the trough to move.

[0011] Preferably, the outer wall of the machine body is provided with a flipping assembly, the flipping assembly includes a top plate, the top plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the machine body, the outer wall of the top plate is fixedly connected to a guide groove, the outer wall of the material trough is fixedly connected to a fixing sleeve, the inner wall of the fixing sleeve is slidably connected to a sliding block, the outer wall of the sliding block is fixedly connected to a toggle plate, and the outer wall of the sliding block is fixedly connected to a sliding head.

[0012] Preferably, the center line of the sliding block and the center line of the actuating plate are both in the same plane.

[0013] Preferably, the outer wall of the sliding head is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide groove, so that the sliding head can move smoothly on the inner wall of the guide groove.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a dry and wet feed trough for piglet feeding, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. In daily use, when a piglet finds the feed trough by its scent and pushes the guardrail forward, the cover will move simultaneously, opening the feed bin and allowing dry feed to fall into the trough. This allows individual piglets to eat well within the guardrail without being squeezed or collided with other piglets. When the feed bin is opened, the toothed plate will also move, causing the toothed column to rotate. This causes the toothed plate to move the clamping plate, which then smoothly blocks the feed bin, preventing further feed from falling out. This ensures that piglets can eat a fixed amount at a time and leave after each feeding, preventing individual piglets from constantly occupying the feeding spot and thus promoting the overall stable growth of the piglets.

[0016] 2. In this dry and wet feed trough for piglets, when the piglets find the feed trough by smell and push the guardrail forward, the sliding head can smoothly move on the inner wall of the guide groove, thereby driving the agitator to move. This allows the agitator to separate the squeezed dry feed, so that the clumps of dry feed can be better dispersed, making it easier for the piglets to eat well. Ultimately, this further improves the overall practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0024] like Figures 1-6As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a dry and wet feed trough for piglet feeding, including a body 1, an external water tank 2 provided on the outer wall of the body 1, a quantity optimization component 3 provided on the outer wall of the body 1, the quantity optimization component 3 including a feeding bin 301, the feeding bin 301 being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the body 1, a discharge bin 302 being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feeding bin 301, an elastic telescopic rod 303 being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the body 1, a feed trough 304 being fixedly connected to the end of the elastic telescopic rod 303, a protective railing 305 being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feed trough 304, a limit block 306 being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feed trough 304, a cover plate 307 being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feed trough 304, and an upper shell 308 being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the body 1.

[0025] Furthermore, the elastic telescopic plate 309 is fixedly connected to the end of the upper shell 308, the end of the cover plate 307 is fixedly connected to the toothed plate 310, the outer wall of the body 1 is fixedly connected to the insert plate 311, the outer wall of the body 1 is fixedly connected to the long plate 312, the outer wall of the long plate 312 is rotatably mounted with the toothed column 313, the outer wall of the body 1 is fixedly connected to the insert plate 314, the outer wall of the insert plate 314 is slidably connected to the toothed plate 315, and the end of the toothed plate 315 is fixedly connected to the locking plate 316.

[0026] In the embodiments of this utility model, toothed plate 310 meshes with toothed column 313, and toothed column 313 meshes with toothed plate 315, so that toothed plate 310 can smoothly perform transmission. The outer wall of the clamping plate 316 is adapted to the inner wall of the feeding bin 302, so that when the clamping plate 316 enters the feeding bin 302, it can smoothly block the feeding bin 302, so that subsequent feed cannot fall out. The center line of the feed trough 304 and the center line of the elastic telescopic rod 303 are on the same straight line, so that the elastic telescopic rod 303 can smoothly drive the feed trough 304 to move.

[0027] Furthermore, the outer wall of the machine body 1 is provided with a flipping assembly 4, which includes a top plate 401. The top plate 401 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the machine body 1. A guide groove 402 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the top plate 401. A fixing sleeve 403 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the material trough 304. A sliding block 404 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing sleeve 403. A toggle plate 405 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding block 404. A sliding head 406 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding block 404. The center line of the sliding block 404 and the center line of the toggle plate 405 are both in the same plane. The outer wall of the sliding head 406 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide groove 402, so that the sliding head 406 can move smoothly on the inner wall of the guide groove 402.

[0028] In this invention, during daily use, the external water tank 2 can be connected to obtain a continuous supply of water, while dry feed can be placed into the feeding bin 301. When the piglets find the feed trough 304 by following the scent and push the protective fence 305 forward, the cover 307 will move simultaneously, thereby opening the feeding bin 302 and allowing the dry feed to fall into the feed trough 304. This allows the individual piglets to eat well within the protective fence 305 without being squeezed or collided with the surrounding piglets. When the feed hopper 302 is opened, the toothed plate 310 will move synchronously, thereby driving the toothed column 313 to rotate. This causes the toothed plate 315 to drive the clamping plate 316 to move. Finally, when the clamping plate 316 enters the feed hopper 302, it can smoothly block the feed hopper 302, preventing subsequent feed from falling out. This ensures that piglets can eat a fixed amount of food at a time and leave after eating. This prevents individual piglets from constantly occupying the feeding area, thus allowing the overall piglets to grow steadily.

[0029] When the piglets find the feed trough 304 by following the scent and push the guardrail 305 forward, the sliding head 406 can smoothly move on the inner wall of the guide groove 402, thereby driving the agitator plate 405 to move. This allows the agitator plate 405 to separate the squeezed dry feed, so that the clumps of dry feed can be better dispersed, making it easier for the piglets to eat well. Ultimately, this further improves the overall practicality.

[0030] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
