Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pig farming equipment technology, specifically a pig feeding trough structure that can dispense feed in a quantitative manner. Background Technology
[0002] Pig farming is an important industry in my country's agriculture, playing a vital role in ensuring the safe supply of meat. Pig troughs are basic facilities in pig farms and are essential tools for providing feed to pigs. Traditional feeding methods usually involve manually feeding pigs into the troughs based on experience. However, this method has problems such as food waste and uneven feeding. In modern pig farming, it is necessary to control the amount of feed consumed by pigs to avoid overfeeding or insufficient feed, in order to achieve the best economic benefits.
[0003] A search revealed a utility model patent in China with patent publication number CN220476593U, which discloses a quantitative feeding trough for pigs. The trough is roughly described as follows: it includes a base, a feeding mechanism mounted on top of the base, a driving mechanism located behind the feeding mechanism, a storage mechanism mounted on top of the base, and a quantitative feeding mechanism mounted on top of the storage mechanism. The feeding mechanism includes a fixed column, which, during use, drives a connecting plate to reciprocate, thereby causing a sliding block to reciprocate along the top of the outer wall of the feeding trough, and further driving a spreading plate to reciprocate, thus spreading the piled feed evenly and preventing pigs from scrambling for it while eating, reducing feed waste. However, the above device still has certain shortcomings. For example, although the spreading method can achieve uniform feeding, it is difficult to guarantee that pigs will not scramble for food during the spreading process. The spreading structure is easily damaged by the pigs' obstruction, making it difficult to achieve stable quantitative feeding. Therefore, we propose a pig feeding trough structure that can quantitatively dispense feed. Utility Model Content

The horizontal plate 5 is fixedly connected between support plate 3 and two support plates 4. The guide plate 6 is fixedly connected between the base 1 and two support plates 4. The horizontal plate 5 is fixedly connected to a slide groove 7 by multiple support blocks. A slider is slidably connected in the slide groove 7. A motor 8 is installed on the slide groove 7. A threaded shaft 9 is rotatably connected in the slide groove 7. The slider is threadedly connected to the threaded shaft 9. The output end of the motor 8 passes through the slide groove 7 and is fixedly connected to the threaded shaft 9. A box 10 is fixedly connected to the slider. A discharge pipe is connected to the box 10. An electronic valve 11 is installed on the discharge pipe. An opening is opened on the box 10. A graduated observation window 12 is fixedly connected in the opening. The graduations and the observation window 12 are used by the staff to check and quantitatively discharge the material. The motor 8, threaded shaft 9 and other components are used to drive the box 10 to move and discharge the material evenly. The electronic valve 11 is used to control the flow rate of the material.
[0030] The material discharge mechanism is set between two support plates 4. The material discharge mechanism includes a mounting plate 13, which is fixedly connected between the two support plates 4. Two electric cylinders 14 are mounted on the mounting plate 13. The output end of the electric cylinders 14 is fixedly connected to the mounting block. Baffles 15 are fixedly connected to the two mounting blocks. The electric cylinders 14 are used to drive the baffles 15 to move up and down. The baffles 15 are used to block the material and discharge it evenly at the same time.
[0031] The mixing mechanism is installed on the housing 10. The mixing mechanism includes a second motor 16, which is installed on the housing 10. The output end of the second motor 16 passes through the housing 10 and is fixedly connected to a mixing shaft. Multiple mixing rods 17 of different lengths are fixedly connected to the mixing shaft. The second motor 16, mixing rods 17, etc. are used to mix the feed, which can prevent the feed from clumping or settling.
[0032] The box 10 has a feed inlet, and a cover plate 18 is rotatably connected to the feed inlet to facilitate the addition of feed into the box 10 and to provide a shielding function.
[0033] Stabilizing grooves 19 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 13 and the two support plates 4. Stabilizing blocks are slidably connected in the stabilizing grooves 19. The stabilizing blocks are fixedly connected to the housing 10 to support the housing 10 and ensure the stability of the housing 10.
[0034] Multiple partitions 20 are fixedly connected inside the feeding trough 2 to separate the pigs and effectively prevent them from fighting for food.
[0035] It should be further explained that the motor 8, motor 16, electronic valve 11, and electric cylinder 14 in this embodiment are conventional devices known to those skilled in the art and available on the market. Models can be selected or customized according to actual needs. In this patent, we only use them without improving their structure and function. Their setting method, installation method, and electrical connection method can be easily explained by those skilled in the art by following the instructions for use.

The installation position of the control switches can be selected according to actual usage requirements to facilitate operation and control by the operator.
[0036] In summary, the working principle and process of this quantitative feeding pig trough structure are as follows: First, place the quantitative feeding pig trough structure at the desired location, and connect motor 8 and motor 16 according to the corresponding instruction manual to establish the forward and reverse circuits. Then, when using it, add feed into the housing 10. At this time, start motor 8 and motor 16. Motor 16 drives the stirring shaft and stirring rod 17 to rotate, stirring the feed in the housing 10. It should be noted that when opening the electronic valve 11 to discharge feed, slow stirring can be performed to promote discharge, or the motor can be turned off. No stirring is required in section 16, as long as it doesn't affect the reading on the observation window 12. Motor 8 drives the threaded shaft 9 to rotate, rotating it forward and backward. The threaded shaft 9 drives the slider to move back and forth, and the slider drives the box 10 to move. At this time, opening the electronic valve 11 allows for uniform feeding. The feed will fall evenly onto the guide plate 6. After the feed has been dispensed in a measured amount, the electric cylinder 14 is activated. The electric cylinder 14 drives the baffle 15 to move, and the baffle 15 opens, allowing the uniform feed to enter the feeding trough 2 simultaneously. This ensures stable quantitative feeding, avoids pigs competing for food, and improves practicality.
[0037] The above embodiments merely illustrate specific implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
