Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a traction-type feeding trolley. Background Technology

[0002] The towed feeding trolley is widely used in stepped chicken cage equipment. The towed feeding trolley is driven by a motor and a steel wire rope to pull the trolley with the feeding mechanism fixed to it in a reciprocating motion.

[0003] Because the motor of the traction feeding trolley is located at the head of the cage frame equipment, the feeding trolley in the middle is driven by pulling a steel wire rope. Slippage may occur during the process, resulting in uneven overall material feeding. In addition, the hopper may occasionally become clogged or jammed, making it difficult to achieve precise feeding. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a traction feeding trolley.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] A traction-type feeding trolley includes a chicken cage support, a breeding cage mounted on the chicken cage support, a feeding trough mounted on the chicken cage support and corresponding to the breeding cage, a feeding mechanism mounted on the chicken cage support for conveying feed to the feeding trough, a drive mechanism fixedly mounted on the upper end of the feeding mechanism and in contact with the chicken cage support, the drive mechanism including a trolley upper and lower crossbeam connecting plate fixedly mounted to the feeding mechanism, a sliding frame fixedly mounted on the lower end of the trolley upper and lower crossbeam connecting plate, an inner support frame fixedly mounted to the feeding mechanism, a drive motor fixedly mounted to the inner support frame, a control box mounted above the trolley upper and lower crossbeam connecting plate, and a steel wire rope passing through the inner support frame and fixedly mounted at both ends to the beginning and end of the chicken cage support.

[0007] Preferably, the two ends of the sliding frame are equipped with traveling wheels via fixed axles.

[0008] Preferably, the inner support frame is provided with several positioning rods;

[0009] Furthermore, the inner support frame is equipped with an active wire rope wheel shaft and a driven wire rope wheel shaft. The active wire rope wheel shaft corresponds to the drive motor and is connected to the output end of the drive motor.

[0010] Preferably, the chicken cage support is trapezoidal, and two parallel overhead rails are welded to its top.

[0011] Preferably, a foot pedal is provided on the feeding trough located at the bottom of the chicken cage support.

[0012] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a feeding bracket mounted on the chicken cage frame via a drive mechanism, and hoppers installed on the feeding bracket in a number corresponding to the feeding troughs.

[0013] Furthermore, the feeding bracket is trapezoidal in shape and consists of a vertical beam, a lower crossbeam of the trolley welded to the upper end of the vertical beam, and an upper crossbeam of the trolley. An auxiliary pulley is installed on the inner side of the lower end of the vertical beam.

[0014] Furthermore, a feeding auger motor is installed at the lower end of the hopper, and a guide port is installed at the output end of the feeding auger motor.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] 1. This solution, through a drive motor and control system, can automate the feeding process without manual intervention, reducing labor intensity and improving efficiency. The feeding mechanism can move automatically on the chicken cage support, delivering feed to each feeding trough in a timely and quantitative manner, ensuring the continuity and stability of the feeding process.

[0017] 2. Through the design of the feeding auger motor and feed guide, the feed output can be precisely controlled, avoiding feed waste or insufficient feeding, thereby improving feed utilization. The adjustable feed amount allows the system to be adjusted according to different breeding stages, flock size and feed demand, flexibly adapting to the needs of various farms.

[0018] 3. Key components such as sliding frames, crane wheels, and auxiliary pulleys are used to ensure smooth sliding of the feeding mechanism on the chicken cage support, reducing shaking and instability. The inner support frame and positioning rod increase the structural stability of the system and reduce wear and instability during long-term use.

[0019] 4. The foot pedal not only supports the feeding mechanism to move smoothly, but also has an additional function: it can be used as a water supply pipe for the farm's water supply system, further enhancing the system's comprehensiveness and multifunctionality. This design allows the farm to make more efficient use of the facilities, reduces the need for other independent water supply pipes, and simplifies the farm's infrastructure construction.

[0020] 5. The system design takes into account the differences in breeding scale and breeding stage, and provides flexible adjustment functions. The control box enables the system to adjust the motor operation status, feeding speed and amount according to actual needs. The trapezoidal design of the chicken cage frame and feeding frame makes the whole system structure compact, easy to install and maintain, and adaptable to breeding environments of different sizes and layouts.

[0021] 6. Through precise feed delivery and control, the feed waste that may occur in traditional manual feeding is avoided. Feed is supplied more precisely to each feeding trough, which helps to improve feed utilization efficiency and reduce breeding costs. Attached Figure Description
