Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, and in particular to a feeding pen for comparative observation of forage-based total mixed rations. Background Technology

[0002] In livestock research and production practice, forage-based total mixed rations (TMRs) are widely used due to their advantages such as balanced nutrition and ease of mechanized feeding. To optimize feed formulations, improve feeding efficiency, and enhance animal production performance, it is often necessary to conduct comparative trials of different TMR formulations under the same environment. Currently, most livestock pens have a uniform feeding structure, lacking effective group management and precise feeding mechanisms, making it difficult to meet the needs of simultaneous trials of multiple diet formulations.

[0003] Existing animal husbandry pens typically lack zoning control capabilities, leading to the following prominent problems in practical use: First, it is impossible to independently administer and manage multiple forage-based total mixed ration (TMR) formulas within the same pen, easily causing cross-mixing of feeds; second, animals are prone to accidentally ingesting feeds from other groups during feeding, affecting the accuracy and comparability of experimental data; and third, the lack of effective monitoring of key indicators such as feeding behavior and feed intake limits the scientific analysis of experimental results. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a forage-based total mixed ration experimental comparative observation feeding enclosure.

[0005] A forage-based total mixed ration (TMR) experimental comparative observation feeding enclosure includes a base, enclosure panels, baffles, hinged doors, railings, feed boxes, fixing blocks, and a monitor. There are two bases, symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides. A baffle is connected to the front of each base. Enclosure panels are connected to the left, right, and rear sides of each base. Hinged doors are hinged to each baffle panel. At least two railings are connected between the inner walls of each enclosure panel. At least six feed boxes are connected to the top of each base. Each feed box has a feed trough on its top. Fixing blocks are connected to each feed box, and monitors are connected to each fixing block.

[0006] As a further preferred option, it also includes a top cover, with the top of the enclosure and the baffle connected to the top of the top cover, and gaps left between the top cover and the enclosure and the baffle.

[0007] As a further preferred option, labels are also included, with labels attached to the side of the feed bin away from the side panel.

[0008] As a further preferred option, it also includes a manure-leaking rod, and manure collection troughs are opened on the opposite sides of the base. The manure collection troughs are all connected through the surrounding panels, and manure-leaking rods are connected to the manure collection troughs. The manure-leaking rods are all aligned with the top of the base.

[0009] As a further preferred option, the manure collection troughs are inclined, with the side of the troughs that are far apart from each other being lower than the side that is close to each other.

[0010] As a further preferred embodiment, it also includes a scraper, a fixing rod, and a handle. The scraper is slidably connected inside the manure collection trough, and each scraper is connected to a fixing rod. The fixing rod is slidably connected to the manure collection trough, and each fixing rod is connected to a handle.

[0011] This utility model has the following advantages: It is equipped with a feed box, a feed trough, a fixing block and a monitor, which can separate feeds with different nutritional components, avoid herbivorous livestock from eating different forage-type total mixed rations at the same time, ensure the accuracy and comparability of comparative observation, and monitor the corresponding feed box through a separate monitor, so as to obtain the situation of herbivorous livestock eating forage-type total mixed rations in different feed boxes.

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, terms such as "setting," "installing," "connecting," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0019] A comparative observation of a forage-based total mixed ration (TMR) trial in a feeding pen, such as... Figures 1-5 As shown, the system includes a base 1, a surrounding panel 2, a baffle 3, a hinged door 4, railings 5, feed bins 7, fixing blocks 9, a monitor 10, a top cover 6, a label 11, a manure-leaking rod 12, a scraper 13, a fixing rod 14, and a handle 15. There are two bases 1, symmetrically arranged. The baffle 3 is connected to the front of each base 1. The surrounding panels 2 are connected to the left, right, and rear sides of each base 1. Hinged doors 4 are hinged to each baffle 3. At least two railings 5 ​​are connected between the left and right inner walls of each surrounding panel 2. At least six feed bins 7 are connected to the top of each base 1. Each feed bin 7 has a feed trough 8 on its top. Fixing blocks 9 are connected to each feed bin 7, and the monitor 10 is connected to each fixing block 9. The top cover 6 is connected to the top of both the surrounding panel 2 and the baffle 3, with gaps between the top cover 6 and the surrounding panel 2 and the baffle 3. It can effectively remove harmful gases such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide from the feeding area, ensuring that the herbivores on the left and right bases 1 maintain a consistent and suitable environmental condition, avoiding environmental factors that could deteriorate the physiological state of the herbivores and lead to inaccurate test results. The feed box 7 is connected to the label 11 on the side away from the enclosure 2. The bases 1 are provided with manure collection troughs 101 on the sides away from each other. The manure collection troughs 101 all penetrate the enclosure 2. The manure collection troughs 101 are all connected to the manure leakage rods 12, which are aligned with the top of the base 1. The manure collection troughs 101 are inclined, with the side away from each other being lower than the side closer to each other. The scraper 13 is slidably connected inside the manure collection trough 101. The scraper 13 is connected to the fixing rod 14, which is slidably connected to the manure collection trough 101. The fixing rod 14 is connected to the handle 15.

[0020] During the trial of forage-based total mixed ration (TMR), herbivorous livestock were placed in the enclosure. When it was necessary to add TMR, the hinged door 4 was opened, and different amounts of TMR with different nutrient compositions were sequentially poured into the feed troughs 8 of the six feed boxes 7 on the left. Similarly, forage-based TMR with different nutrient compositions was sequentially poured into the feed troughs 8 of the six feed boxes 7 on the right. The amounts of nutrient compositions in the forage-based TMR in the feed troughs 8 on the right were also different. This separated the feeds with different nutrient compositions, preventing herbivorous livestock from consuming different TMRs simultaneously, ensuring the accuracy and comparability of comparative observations. The nutrient composition table of the corresponding forage-based TMR in the feed troughs 8 was written on the labels 11 on both sides. The hinged door 4 was then closed, and the process was monitored by a separate monitor 10. The feed box 7 is monitored for 14 hours a day to obtain information on the consumption of forage-based total mixed rations (TMRs) in different feed boxes 7 by herbivorous livestock. The feeding time, frequency, and duration of herbivorous livestock are monitored to determine the palatability of the forage-based TMRs. After the herbivorous livestock defecate, the hinged door 4 is opened, pushing the feces onto the manure-leaking rod 12, from which the feces fall into the manure collection trough 101. The hinged door 4 is then closed, and the fixed rod 14 is pulled by the handle 15, causing the scraper 13 to scrape the feces out of the manure collection trough 101. Chemical analysis of the feces is then performed to understand the digestibility and utilization rate of different feeds by herbivorous livestock, and to analyze the excretion of minerals, vitamins, and other nutrients in the feces. This helps to assess the overall nutritional status of herbivorous livestock and adjust the forage-based TMR formula accordingly to meet their nutritional needs.

[0021] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
