[0002] Automatic pig feeders are devices used to provide feed to pig herds, aiming to efficiently and accurately meet the nutritional needs of pigs while improving breeding efficiency and management level. Traditional automatic pig feeders generally rely solely on the gravity of the feed itself for feeding. However, this method results in poor feed flowability, leading to slow feeding speed and a tendency to clog. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, this utility model provides an anti-clogging automatic feeding device for pigs, which solves the problem that traditional automatic feeding devices for pigs generally rely solely on the gravity of the feed itself to complete the feeding process. However, this method results in poor feed flowability, leading to slow feeding speed and a tendency to clog.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an anti-clogging automatic feeding device for pigs, comprising a base plate, two T-shaped plates fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, a support plate fixedly connected to one side of one of the T-shaped plates, a motor fixedly connected to the top of the support plate, a second connecting rod fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, a first connecting rod hinged to one end of the second connecting rod, a movable rod rotatably connected to one end of the first connecting rod via a hinge, and a feed hopper fixedly connected to one end of the movable rod.
[0005] The bottom of the hopper is fixedly connected to a discharge pipe, and an electric knife gate valve is installed on the discharge pipe. Two fixing rods are arranged between the two T-shaped plates. One end of the fixing rod is fixedly connected to one of the T-shaped plates, and the other end of the fixing rod is fixedly connected to the other T-shaped plate. The hopper is slidably connected to the two fixing rods. A feed storage box is provided on the top of the bottom plate.
[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: two fixing plates are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, and the two fixing plates are symmetrically arranged about the middle of the base plate.
[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the feed storage box is located between two fixed plates, and the feed storage box is located at the bottom of the feed hopper.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the fixing plate is threaded with two screws, and the number of screws is four.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: two reinforcing rods are fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate, and the reinforcing rods are fixed to one of the T-shaped plates.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the feeding hopper is located between two T-shaped plates, and the feeding hopper is located on top of the bottom plate.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] 1. This anti-clogging automatic pig feeding device consists of a feed hopper, a motor, a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod, and an electric knife gate valve. In use, feed is stored inside the feed hopper. When feeding is needed, the electric knife gate valve is opened, allowing the feed inside the feed hopper to flow out through the discharge pipe. At this time, the motor starts, driving the second connecting rod to rotate. During the 180-degree rotation of the second connecting rod, it pulls the movable rod to the right via the first connecting rod. As the second connecting rod continues to rotate 180 degrees, it pushes the movable rod to the left via the first connecting rod, thus achieving the reciprocating left-right movement of the movable rod and the feed hopper. This shakes the feed inside the feed hopper, causing it to fall through the discharge pipe into the feed storage box, completing the feeding process. This device, through the reciprocating left-right movement of the feed hopper, significantly improves feed flowability, increases the feeding speed, and effectively prevents clogging.
[0013] 2. This anti-clogging automatic pig feeding device uses a feed storage box, fixing plates, and screws. To disassemble the feed storage box, loosen the screws to release its fixation. To install the feed storage box, place it between the two fixing plates for initial positioning and tighten the screws to secure it. The device employs a modular feed storage box, facilitating disassembly and installation. Tightening the screws improves the stability of the feed storage box, and disassembly allows for easy cleaning. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The technical solution of this patent will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0019] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an anti-clogging automatic feeding device for pigs, including a base plate 1, two T-shaped plates 2 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, a support plate 5 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the T-shaped plates 2, and two reinforcing rods 6 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 5. Because of the reinforcing rods 6, the reinforcing rods 6 play a supporting role for the support plate 5, thereby improving the stability of the support plate 5. The reinforcing rods 6 are fixed to one of the T-shaped plates 2. A motor 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the support plate 5, and a second connecting rod 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 7.
[0020] The second connecting rod 13 is hinged to the first connecting rod 12 at one end. The first connecting rod 12 is rotatably connected to the movable rod 11 at one end via a hinge. The movable rod 11 is fixedly connected to the feeding hopper 4 at one end. The feeding hopper 4 is located between the two T-shaped plates 2 and at the top of the bottom plate 1. The bottom of the feeding hopper 4 is fixedly connected to the discharge pipe 9. An electric knife gate valve 10 is installed on the discharge pipe 9. Because of the electric knife gate valve 10, when the electric knife gate valve 10 is closed, it can block the feed inside the feeding hopper 4 to prevent the feed from flowing out on its own. When the electric knife gate valve 10 is opened, it can allow the feed to flow out from the discharge pipe 9, thereby facilitating feeding.
[0021] Two fixing rods 3 are provided between the two T-shaped plates 2. Because of the fixing rods 3, when the hopper 4 moves, the fixing rods 3 play a supporting and limiting role for the hopper 4, improving the stability of the movement of the hopper 4. One end of the fixing rod 3 is fixedly connected to one of the T-shaped plates 2, and the other end of the fixing rod 3 is fixedly connected to the other T-shaped plate 2. The hopper 4 is slidably connected to the two fixing rods 3. Two fixing plates 14 are fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate 1. The two fixing plates 14 are symmetrically arranged about the middle of the bottom plate 1.
[0022] A feed storage box 8 is provided on the top of the base plate 1. The feed storage box 8 is located between two fixed plates 14 and at the bottom of the feed hopper 4. Two screws 15 are threaded on the fixed plate 14. The presence of screws 15 improves the stability of the feed storage box 8 when it is tightened to install and fix it. Loosening the screws 15 facilitates the cleaning of the feed storage box 8 when it is disassembled. There are four screws 15 in total.
[0023] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0024] In use, feed is stored inside the feeding hopper 4. When feeding is needed, the electric knife gate valve 10 is opened, allowing the feed inside the feeding hopper 4 to flow out through the discharge pipe 9. At this time, the motor 7 is started, driving the second connecting rod 13 to rotate. During the 180-degree rotation of the second connecting rod 13, the second connecting rod 13 will pull the movable rod 11 to the right through the first connecting rod 12. During the continued 180-degree rotation of the second connecting rod 13, the second connecting rod 13 will push the movable rod 11 to the left through the first connecting rod 12, thus realizing... The reciprocating left and right movement of the movable rod 11 and the feeding hopper 4 shakes the feed inside the feeding hopper 4. The feed falls into the feed storage box 8 through the discharge pipe 9, thus completing the feeding work. When it is necessary to disassemble the feed storage box 8, the screws 15 are loosened to release the fixed state of the feed storage box 8, and then the feed storage box 8 can be disassembled. When it is necessary to install the feed storage box 8, the feed storage box 8 is placed between the two fixing plates 14 for initial positioning, and the screws 15 are tightened to fix the feed storage box 8, thus completing the installation of the feed storage box 8.
