Transmission gear plates 241 are fixedly mounted at the four corners of the lifting plate 24. Transmission gears 242 are fixedly sleeved on each of the four rotating pins. The four transmission gear plates 241 mesh with the corresponding transmission gears 242, which can synchronously control the tilt angle of the four support rods 22 when the lifting plate 24 is raised or lowered, thereby facilitating the control of the height of the device and improving the passability of the device during movement. Two electric cylinders 25 are fixedly mounted on the support frame 2. The telescopic ends of the two electric cylinders 25 are fixedly mounted on the top side of the lifting plate 24, which can control the lifting plate 24 to be raised or lowered as needed.

[0034] Both the inner and outer sides of the tank 1 are curved. A brake motor 41 is fixedly installed on the support frame 2. A drive gear 42 is fixedly sleeved on the output shaft of the brake motor 41. An arc-shaped toothed plate 4 is embedded and fixedly installed on the outer side of the tank 1. The drive gear 42 meshes with the arc-shaped toothed plate 4, which can adjust the tilt angle of the tank 1 as needed, and at the same time provide an auxiliary effect for cleaning the tank 1.

[0035] The cleaning scraper 5 is slidably mounted on the tank body 1 and contacts the inner wall of the tank body 1. Adjusting screws 501 that are threadedly connected to the cleaning scraper 5 are rotatably mounted on both sides of the tank body 1. Synchronous pulleys 502 are fixedly sleeved at the front ends of the two adjusting screws 501. The same synchronous belt 503 is driven and connected to the two synchronous pulleys 502. An adjusting motor 504 is fixedly mounted on the rear side of the tank body 1. The output shaft of the adjusting motor 504 is axially fixedly connected to one of the adjusting screws 501. It can control the movement of the cleaning scraper 5 along the inner wall of the tank body 1 as needed, thereby realizing the cleaning operation of the inner wall of the tank body 1.

[0036] In this embodiment, in order to move the grass in the trough 1 when the cleaning scraper 5 moves along the inner wall of the trough 1, thereby achieving the spreading effect without the need for operators to manually spread the grass evenly, thus effectively reducing the workload, a crossbar 51 is fixedly installed on the cleaning scraper 5, and multiple levers 52 are fixedly installed on the crossbar 51.

[0037] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the addition of drinking water for livestock into the tank 1, and at the same time to achieve the rinsing and cleaning of the inner wall of the tank 1, a delivery pump 3 is fixedly installed on the front side of the support frame 2. The outlet of the delivery pump 3 is connected to the hollow shaft 11, and multiple downward-facing nozzles are provided on the hollow shaft 11.

[0038] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the discharge of feed and water in the tank 1, slag discharge ports 101 are provided on the lower part of the inner walls on both the front and rear sides of the tank 1, and sealing doors are installed at both slag discharge ports 101.

[0039] In this embodiment, in order to provide shielding and protection for the synchronous pulley 502, synchronous belt 503 and adjusting motor 504, and to prevent disengagement between the transmission tooth plate 241 and the transmission gear 242, strip baffles 505 are fixedly installed on both the front and rear sides of the groove 1. The two strip baffles 505 are located above the horizontal plane where the two synchronous pulleys 502 are located. Limiting blocks are fixedly installed at the top and bottom of the transmission tooth plate 241.

[0040] The circuits, electronic components, and module mechanisms involved all employ existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need no further explanation. The content protected by this application does not involve any improvement to the software, circuits, or methods.

[0041] Working principle: When in use, first connect the power supply, move the device to the desired position using the moving wheel 23, and then brake and limit the moving wheel 23 to pour the hay or feed directly into the trough 1. Then, the cleaning scraper 5 is controlled by the adjusting motor 504 in conjunction with the adjusting screw 501, the synchronous pulley 502, and the synchronous belt 503 to move along the inner wall of the trough 1. At the same time, with the cooperation of the crossbar 51 and multiple levers 52, the hay or feed can be spread evenly in the trough 1, eliminating the need for manual spreading by the operator. In addition, because the inner wall of the trough 1 is designed with a curved surface, the feed or hay can be gathered as much as possible, effectively reducing feed waste. Meanwhile, according to actual needs, the brake motor 41 can be activated to adjust the tilt angle of the trough 1 to optimize feed distribution.

[0042] Clean water can be injected into the tank 1 by means of the delivery pump 3, the hollow shaft 11 and the nozzle on the hollow shaft 11. During this process, water is sprayed onto the inner wall of the tank 1 through the nozzle on the hollow shaft 11, which can provide drinking water for livestock.

[0043] When cleaning is required, the cleaning scraper 5 is controlled to slide along the inner wall of the tank 1. At the same time, the lever 52 can push the residual feed towards the end of the tank 1. Then, the sealing door on the corresponding side is opened and the cleaned feed is collected by the external container. Water is sprayed into the tank 1 by the delivery pump 3 in conjunction with the hollow shaft 11 and multiple nozzles. At the same time, the tilt angle of the tank 1 is adjusted by the brake motor 41 in conjunction with the drive gear 42 and the arc-shaped toothed plate 4, so as to achieve a high-efficiency cleaning effect according to actual needs.

[0044] When the height of the device needs to be adjusted, the lifting plate 24 is raised or lowered by the electric cylinder 25, and the angle of the support rod 22 is adjusted by the meshing of the transmission gear plate 241 and the transmission gear 242, thereby controlling the position of the moving wheel 23. This ensures that the equipment can be flexibly transferred between different sites and that the device can be well adapted to livestock of different heights. The overall design realizes automated operation and significantly improves the efficiency of the feeding trough and the convenience of maintenance.
