Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of livestock feed troughs, and more specifically, to a feeding trough for pig farming. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, pig feeders are generally fixed installations, and pig feed is simply placed into the feeder when feeding. However, some pig feed often remains in the feeder. If the feeder is not cleaned for a long time, the remaining pig feed may ferment and spoil, or even produce harmful substances. If pigs eat it, it may affect their health. However, traditional fixed pig feeders are difficult to clean and may even have water accumulation problems, which need to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to propose a feeding trough for pig farming, which has a simple structure, facilitates the emptying of internal residues, and is easy to clean.

[0004] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model provides a feeding trough for pig farming, including a feed trough and an adjustment structure installed on a support frame; the feed trough is rotatably installed on the support frame, and the adjustment structure is used to drive the feed trough to rotate, so that at least one side of the feed trough opening can be swung to a horizontal position.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the support frame includes a first support plate, with second support plates fixedly installed at both ends of the first support plate. The material trough is rotatably installed between the two second support plates. The bottom of the material trough has an outwardly convex arc shape. Multiple support rollers are installed between the two second support plates. The multiple support rollers are arranged in an arc array around the rotation center of the material trough, forming an arc-shaped arrangement profile to support the outer arc surface of the material trough. An adjustment structure is installed on the first support plate.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the support roller is rotatably mounted between two second support plates.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, multiple partitions are fixedly installed inside the material trough, dividing the interior of the trough into multiple cavities; a clamping cavity is provided on the outer wall of the material trough corresponding to the middle partition, and an arc-shaped first rack is fixedly installed in the clamping cavity; an adjustment structure is installed in the middle of the first support plate, and the adjustment structure and the first rack are driven by gear meshing, with the gear rotating between two second support plates via a support shaft; by adjusting the adjustment structure, the gear is driven to rotate, thereby realizing the oscillation of the material trough.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the adjusting structure includes a second rack, with a pedal fixedly mounted at the top and a pressure plate fixedly mounted at the bottom. A guide rod is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the pressure plate. At least two guide bolts are mounted side-by-side on the wall surface of the second rack away from the gear. A vertically oriented slot is provided on the first support plate, through which the guide bolts pass. The second rack moves along the slot via the guide bolts and slides against the wall surface of the first support plate, engaging with the gear for transmission. A support plate is fixedly mounted below the slot on the first support plate, with a guide hole on the support plate.

[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, a specific embodiment of the present invention discloses a feeding trough for pig farming, including a feed trough 200 and an adjustment structure 300 mounted on a support frame 100; the feed trough 200 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 100, and the adjustment structure 300 is used to drive the feed trough 200 to rotate, so that at least one side of the feed trough opening can be placed in a horizontal position.

[0024] The aforementioned feeding trough for pig farming facilitates the discharge of materials from inside the trough. Subsequent rinsing and cleaning can also empty the materials inside, effectively preventing impurities from accumulating and ensuring cleaning quality. The overall operation is relatively simple and convenient for cleaning. More specifically, during cleaning, the adjustment structure is adjusted so that the trough swings to one side downwards, allowing the materials inside to be discharged from the trough. Then, water is sprayed into the trough with a water pipe, and the inside of the trough is scrubbed with a broom to complete the cleaning.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the support frame 100 includes a first support plate 110, with second support plates 120 fixedly installed at both ends of the first support plate 110. A rotating shaft is fixedly provided on both ends of the feed trough. A first circular hole is correspondingly provided on the second support plate, the diameter of which matches the diameter of the rotating shaft. The feed trough 200 is rotatably installed between the two second support plates 120. The bottom of the feed trough 200 has an outwardly convex arc shape. Multiple support rollers 130 are installed between the two second support plates 120. These support rollers are arranged in an arc array around the rotation center of the feed trough, forming an arc-shaped arrangement to support the outer arc surface of the feed trough. An adjustment structure 300 is installed on the first support plate 110. By supporting the feed trough with multiple support rollers, the overall load-bearing capacity can be strengthened, allowing it to support a large amount of feed. Furthermore, it can reduce the stress on the rotation fulcrum of the feed trough, preventing bending and deformation of the rotating shaft, thus maintaining the required rotational oscillation effect of the feed trough for cleaning.

[0026] Furthermore, the support roller 130 is rotatably installed between the two second support plates 120. By using the rotating support roller as a support part of the material trough, it can assist the rotation of the material trough, reduce the adjustment force of the adjustment structure, and facilitate operation.

[0027] Furthermore, multiple support shafts are installed between the two second support plates. The support rollers are provided with second circular holes that pass through both ends. The diameter of the second circular holes is adapted to the shaft diameter of the support shafts. The support rollers rotate and are sleeved on the support shafts. Of course, support rollers with shafts at both ends can also be used directly and installed between the two second support plates through bearing seats. There is no single installation method that can achieve the rotation effect. The method can be selected according to the requirements.

[0028] Furthermore, the feed trough 200 is internally equipped with multiple partitions 210, dividing the interior into multiple cavities. A clamping cavity 220 is provided on the outer wall of the feed trough 200 corresponding to the middle partition, and an arc-shaped first rack 230 is fixedly installed within the clamping cavity 220. An adjusting structure 300 is installed in the middle of the first support plate 110. The adjusting structure 300 and the first rack 230 are driven by a gear 400. A sleeve is fixed to the outer side of the gear's port, fitted onto the support shaft, and fixedly connected by a pin. The gear 400 is rotatably mounted between two second support plates 120 via the support shaft 410. Adjusting the adjusting structure drives the gear to rotate, thereby achieving the oscillation of the feed trough. The partitions divide the feed trough into multiple cavities, facilitating simultaneous feeding of multiple pigs. Furthermore, the middle partition provides space for the transmission components, making the overall design more compact.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the adjustment structure 300 includes a second rack 310, with a pedal 320 fixedly mounted at the top and a pressure plate 330 fixedly mounted at the bottom. A guide rod 340 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the pressure plate 330. At least two guide bolts 350 arranged side by side are installed on the wall surface of the second rack 310 away from the gear. The first support plate 110 is provided with a vertically arranged slot 111, through which the guide bolts 350 pass. The second rack moves along the slot via the guide bolts and slides close to the wall surface of the first support plate. The second rack 310 meshes with the gear 400 for transmission. This structural design allows the adjustment structure to be driven by foot pedal, facilitating better force application and enabling the material trough to be rotated as required. It also allows for hand washing and cleaning, making it convenient for practical use.

[0030] A support plate 112 is fixedly installed below the corresponding slot on the first support plate 110. The support plate 112 has a guide hole 113, through which a guide rod moves and passes, and a retaining spring is installed at the end of the guide rod. A spring 360 is sleeved on the guide rod 340, and the spring is clamped between the pressure plate and the support plate. The spring provides an upward pushing force to the second rack to reset, which facilitates the subsequent lowering of the auxiliary feed trough to the feeding position. It should be noted that after the force applied to the adjustment structure is removed, the feed trough will swing down under its own weight, and the spring assists the second rack in resetting. The elasticity facilitates subsequent adjustments. Furthermore, a stop bar is fixed to the inner side of the two second support plates. When the feed trough is lowered to the feeding position, it abuts against the stop bar, maintaining it in a suitable feeding position. It should be noted that although the foot pedal part of the adjustment structure is located on the back side of the feed trough, since the feed trough is generally installed close to the ground, even if it is swung to the back side near the human body, it will not affect the regular rinsing and cleaning. Of course, the adjustment structure can also be maintained by using a heavy object, or two people can work together to achieve the desired cleaning effect.

[0031] Furthermore, the pedal extends outward away from the material trough, and a reinforcing rib is fixed at the corner where the pedal connects to the material trough to strengthen the overall structural strength, especially for the part that is stepped on, to prevent easy damage.

[0032] Furthermore, the two ends of the support shaft 410 extend outwards from the outer sides of the two second support plates 120, and a prism strip 411 is fixedly provided at the end. The prism strip has pin holes that penetrate the opposite sidewalls. This provides connection conditions for subsequent electric drive. The prism strip is connected to the output shaft of the motor through a coupling, and the motor drives the feed trough to rotate. For large-scale farms, the support shafts of multiple feed troughs can be connected through a transmission shaft, and a single motor can drive multiple feed troughs to rotate and swing for unified processing, meeting the feeding trough cleaning needs of large-scale farms. It should be noted that if electric drive is used for adjustment, the adjustment structure can be removed, eliminating the need to overcome the force brought by the adjustment structure and reducing the motor's operating load.

[0033] This utility model has been described through preferred embodiments.

This utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein; other embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
