Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of rabbit breeding, and in particular relates to a feeding device for large-scale rabbit breeding. Background Technology

[0002] like Figure 6 The diagram shows a schematic of one type of rabbit hutch layout in the prior art. Specifically, when raising rabbits on a large scale, multiple rabbit cages are sometimes arranged side by side in two layers in the rabbit hutch. The feed boxes for feeding the rabbits are suspended at the bottom of the rabbit cages, and the feed inlet of the feed box is located outside the rabbit cage. In this way, when feeding the pelleted feed used for raising rabbits into the feed box, the feed can be added into the feed box through the feed inlet.

[0003] In existing technologies, feeding is sometimes done manually. However, since rabbit farming is a large-scale operation, this manual feeding method requires the feeder to frequently bend over and alternate between up and down when feeding into the two-tiered feed boxes, which is not convenient for feeding operations. Therefore, existing technologies still have shortcomings and deficiencies. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feeding device for large-scale rabbit farming to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above problems is as follows:

[0006] A feeding device for large-scale rabbit farming includes a carrier vehicle equipped with a telescopic lifting mechanism. A support platform is installed at the telescopic end of the lifting mechanism. Horizontally distributed feed pipes are fixedly installed on the support platform. Each feed pipe is a tubular structure with one end closed, and the closed end extends beyond the support platform. A discharge hole is provided at the bottom of the closed end of the feed pipe, and an inlet hole is provided at the top of the open end of the feed pipe, which is fixedly connected to a hopper with an open top surface. A push rod is also slidably connected coaxially inside the feed pipe, and the length of the push rod is greater than the horizontal distance between the center line of the inlet hole and the center line of the discharge hole.

[0007] A first electric telescopic rod is also installed on the support platform on one side of the conveying pipe, which is parallel to the conveying pipe. The first electric telescopic rod is connected to a remote control, and the telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod is located at the opening end of the conveying pipe and is connected to the push rod through a horizontally set U-shaped rod.

[0008] Furthermore, a rubber sealing sleeve of the same length as the push rod is fitted onto the push rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the discharge hole is fixedly connected to vertically distributed feeding pipes.

[0010] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes a second electric telescopic rod vertically mounted on the carrier vehicle. The second electric telescopic rod is connected to a remote control signal. The support platform is installed at the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod. Vertically opposite guide telescopic rods are installed at the four corners of the support platform and between them and the carrier vehicle.

[0011] Furthermore, the carrier vehicle includes a horizontally arranged chassis, with casters installed at all four corners of the chassis bottom surface, and the lifting mechanism installed on the top surface of the chassis.

[0012] Furthermore, vertically opposite pillars are installed at each of the four corners of the support platform and between it and the hopper.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model by adopting the above technical solution are as follows:

[0014] Before feeding, feed can be added to the hopper. Then, by moving the carrier, the feeding device can be moved to a suitable position close to the rabbit cage. At this point, the discharge port on the conveying pipe is positioned above the inlet of the lower feed box. When the extension end of the first electric telescopic rod extends, it moves the push rod to open the inlet port on the conveying pipe, allowing feed from the hopper to enter the conveying pipe. After retracting the extension end of the first electric telescopic rod, the feed in the conveying pipe is pushed to the discharge port for feeding into the lower feed box. Furthermore, the moving carrier facilitates feeding. The feeding device is moved along multiple rabbit cages arranged side by side for feeding. After feeding the lower feed box, the feeding device can be moved away from the rabbit cages. Then, by extending the telescopic end of the lifting mechanism, the various parts on the support platform can be raised to a certain height. At this time, after moving the feeding device to a suitable position close to the rabbit cages, the discharge hole on the conveying pipe can be located above the feed inlet of the upper feed box. Then, by extending and retracting the first electric telescopic rod, it is convenient to feed the upper feed box. In general, compared with the prior art, this utility model can facilitate the feeding operation when feeding the feed boxes that are distributed in two layers. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides a feeding device for large-scale rabbit farming, including a carrier 4, on which a telescopic lifting mechanism 3 is installed. A support platform 1 is installed at the telescopic end of the lifting mechanism 3. In the initial state, the telescopic end of the lifting mechanism 3 is in a retracted state. A horizontally distributed feeding pipe 2 is fixedly installed on the support platform 1. The feeding pipe 2 is a tubular structure with one end closed, and the closed end of the feeding pipe 2 extends outside the support platform 1. A discharge hole is also opened at the bottom of the closed end of the feeding pipe 2. A feed inlet 21 is opened at the top of the open end of the feeding pipe 2, and a hopper 5 with an open top surface is fixedly connected through the feed inlet 21. The bottom of the hopper 5 is funnel-shaped with a wider top and a narrower bottom. A push rod 6 is also slidably connected coaxially inside the feeding pipe 2. The length of the push rod 6 is greater than the horizontal distance between the center line of the feed inlet 21 and the center line of the discharge hole.

[0024] In addition, a first electric telescopic rod 7, parallel to the conveying pipe 2, is installed on the support platform 1 located on one side of the conveying pipe 2. The first electric telescopic rod 7 is connected to a remote control (not shown in the figure). Specifically, the first electric telescopic rod 7 can be configured as an electric push rod and is electrically connected to a power supply installed on the support platform 1. The remote control is connected to the controller built into the first electric telescopic rod 7, and can be used to control the operation of the first electric telescopic rod 7. The telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 7 is located at the opening end of the conveying pipe 2 and is connected to the push rod 6 through a horizontally arranged U-shaped rod 8. Specifically, in the initial state, the telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 7 is in the retracted state. At this time, as... Figure 1As shown, the push rod 6 can close the feed hole 21 on the conveying pipe 2, and the end of the push rod 6 away from the U-shaped rod 8 can be located at the discharge hole; and when the telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 7 extends, as... Figure 2 As shown, by moving the push rod 6, the push rod 6 can open the feed hole 21 on the feed pipe 2.

[0025] Specifically, before feeding, feed can be added to the feed hopper 5. Then, by moving the carrier 4, the feeding device can be moved to a suitable position close to the rabbit cage 12. At this time, in the initial state, the discharge hole on the feed pipe 2 can be located above the feed inlet of the lower feed box 13. Then, when the telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 7 is extended by the remote control, the push rod 6 can be moved to open the feed hole 21 on the feed pipe 2, so that the feed in the hopper 5 can enter the feed pipe 2. Then, by retracting the telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 7 by the remote control, the feed in the feed pipe 2 can be pushed to the discharge hole position for feeding into the lower feed box 13. In addition, by moving the carrier 4, the feed can be moved to a suitable position close to the rabbit cage 12. The 4-cart allows the feeding device to move along multiple rabbit cages 12 arranged side by side for feeding. After feeding the lower feed box 13, the feeding device can be moved to a position away from the rabbit cage 12. Then, after extending the telescopic end of the lifting mechanism 3, the various parts on the support platform 1 can be raised to a certain height. At this time, after moving the feeding device to a suitable position close to the rabbit cage 12, the discharge hole on the conveying pipe 2 can be located above the feed inlet of the upper feed box 13. Then, by extending and retracting the first electric telescopic rod 7, it is convenient to feed the upper feed box 13. In general, compared with the prior art, this utility model can facilitate the feeding operation when feeding the feed boxes 13 that are distributed in two layers.

[0026] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a rubber sealing sleeve 9 of the same length as the push rod 6 is fitted on the push rod 6. Specifically, the rubber sealing sleeve 9 can deform under external force. By setting the rubber sealing sleeve 9, the gap between the push rod 6 and the conveying pipe 2 can be sealed, so that the push rod 6 can completely seal the feed hole 21 on the conveying pipe 2. When the feed in the conveying pipe 2 is pushed to the discharge hole position by the push rod 6, it can also avoid leaving too much feed in the conveying pipe 2. In addition, the closed end of the conveying pipe 2 can also be set tilted downward so that the feed in the conveying pipe 2 can be discharged through the discharge hole.

[0027] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, a vertically distributed feed pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the discharge hole. By setting the feed pipe 10, the vertical distance between the discharge hole and the feed box 13 can be shortened, so as to prevent the feed from falling outside the feed box 13 due to the excessive vertical distance between the discharge hole and the feed box 13.

[0028] The specific configuration of the lifting mechanism is as follows: (e.g.) Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the lifting mechanism 3 includes a second electric telescopic rod 31 vertically mounted on the carrier vehicle 4. The second electric telescopic rod 31 is connected to the remote control via signal. Specifically, the second electric telescopic rod 31 can be configured as an electric push rod and is electrically connected to a power source mounted on the carrier vehicle 4. In the initial state, the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod 31 is in the retracted state. The remote control is connected to the controller built into the second electric telescopic rod 31 via signal. During use, the operation of the second electric telescopic rod 31 can be controlled by the remote control.

[0029] The second electric telescopic rod 31 has a support platform 1 installed at its telescopic end. When the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod 31 is extending or retracting, it can drive various parts on the support platform 1 to rise or fall. Vertically opposite guide telescopic rods are installed at each of the four corners of the support platform 1 and between it and the carrier vehicle 4. Specifically, each guide telescopic rod includes a guide cylinder 32 and a guide rod 33. The bottom end of the guide cylinder 32 is connected to the carrier vehicle 4. The guide rod 33 is coaxially arranged with the guide cylinder 32 and slidably connected to it. The top end of the guide rod 33 is located outside the guide cylinder 32 and connected to the support platform 1. In use, when the second electric telescopic rod 31 is extending or retracting, the four guide telescopic rods can extend and retract synchronously to improve the stability of the support platform 1 during the lifting and lowering process. Furthermore, the guide telescopic rods can also serve as handles to facilitate the movement of the carrier vehicle 4.

[0030] The specific setup of the carrier vehicle 4 is as follows: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the carrier vehicle 4 includes a horizontally arranged chassis 41, with casters 42 installed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the chassis 41, and the lifting mechanism 3 installed on the top surface of the chassis 41. Specifically, by providing casters 42, the position of the feeding device can be easily moved by moving the carrier vehicle 4.

[0031] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, vertically opposite support columns 11 are installed between the four corners of the support platform 1 and the hopper 5. Specifically, for example... Figure 3As shown, the distribution of the four pillars 11 on the support platform 1 does not affect the extension and retraction of the first electric telescopic rod 7, so as not to affect the normal movement of the push rod 6; and by setting the pillars 11, the structural stability of the hopper 5 can be improved.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
