Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feed trough technology, and in particular to a feed trough for pigsties in pig farms. Background Technology

[0002] In large-scale pig farm operations, feed feeding is one of the core links. As a key piece of equipment for pigs to eat, the effectiveness of feed troughs directly affects feeding efficiency and pig farming benefits. In order to adapt to the development needs of large-scale and automated farming and solve various problems in the traditional feeding process, the design of a high-efficiency and practical pig farm feed trough has become a practical need in the industry.

[0003] Currently, most of the feed troughs used in pig farms are simple fixed trough structures. Some feed troughs with basic feeding structures can only achieve simple feed feeding. The overall equipment has a relatively simple functional design and mainly relies on manual assistance to complete operations such as adding and evenly feeding, without forming an automated feeding process.

[0004] However, existing feed troughs are not only low in automation and consume a lot of labor costs, but also prone to problems such as feed clumping and blockage, and uneven feed distribution in the trough. This not only affects the normal feeding of pigs and easily leads to competition for feed, but also causes feed waste. At the same time, frequent manual operation also increases the workload of breeding operations, making it difficult to meet the high-efficiency feeding needs of large-scale pig farms. Therefore, a new type of feed trough for pig farms is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a feed trough for pig farms, which aims to solve the problems of feed clumping and blockage, and uneven feed distribution in the trough that are common in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a feed trough for pig farm pigsty, including a bottom plate, a trough body is provided above the bottom plate, a reciprocating mechanism is provided on the top of the bottom plate, the reciprocating mechanism includes a support column, the support column is fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate, a support plate is fixedly connected to the top of the support column, and a sliding groove is provided at the bottom of the support plate.

[0007] The bottom of the support plate is slidably connected to a movable frame, and the top of the movable frame passes through the sliding groove and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the groove. A movable rod is fixedly connected to the back of the movable frame. A motor is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate. A rotating rod is fixedly connected to the top of the output end of the motor. An eccentric wheel is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating rod.

[0008] The bottom plate is provided with a feeding mechanism, which includes a side plate. The side plate is fixedly connected to the top of the bottom plate. A storage tank is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the side plate. A feeding pipe is connected to the bottom of the storage tank, and a control valve is provided on the feeding pipe.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: the number of support columns is four, and the four support columns are respectively set at the four bottom corners of the support plate.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: there are two moving rods, the distance between the two moving rods is the same as the length of the eccentric wheel, and the eccentric wheel is located between the two moving rods.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: the top of the storage tank is rotatably connected to a stirring rod, and the outer wall of the stirring rod is fixedly connected to a stirring blade. The stirring rod is connected to the rotating rod via a synchronous pulley.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution: a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feeding pipe, and the connecting rod movably passes through the outer wall of the side plate. A spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod, and the two ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the side plate and the feeding pipe, respectively. A rotating disk is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating rod, and one end of the connecting rod contacts the outer wall of the rotating disk.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. In this utility model, by setting up a reciprocating mechanism, the motor drives the eccentric wheel to drive the moving rod and the moving frame in linkage, so as to realize the horizontal reciprocating motion of the trough. This can make the feed in the trough evenly distributed, avoid pigs fighting for feed, and reduce the waste caused by local accumulation of feed. Combined with the quantitative feeding design of the feeding mechanism, it is suitable for multiple pigs to eat at the same time, which greatly improves the feeding efficiency of large-scale pig farms.

[0015] 2. In this utility model, the feeding mechanism integrates a stirring and vibration anti-clogging structure. The stirring rod rotates synchronously with the rotating rod to break up the clumps of feed in the tank. The rotating disk and the spring work together to drive the feeding pipe to vibrate at high frequency. The dual effect effectively prevents the feed from clogging the feeding pipe. Moreover, all mechanisms share a single motor drive, eliminating the need for an additional power source. The structure is compact and energy-saving, reducing the use and maintenance costs of the breeding equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a pig farm feed trough, including a base plate 1, a trough body 2 above the base plate 1, and a reciprocating mechanism 3 on the top of the base plate 1. The reciprocating mechanism 3 drives the trough body 2 to perform horizontal reciprocating motion via mechanical transmission, ensuring even distribution of feed within the trough. This allows multiple pigs to eat simultaneously, preventing excessive feed accumulation and waste, or insufficient feed leading to competition. The reciprocating mechanism 3 includes four support columns 31 fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. A support plate 32 is fixedly connected to the top of each support column 31. The four support columns 31 are respectively located at the four corners of the bottom of the support plate 32, providing vertical support and load-bearing function. A sliding groove 33 is provided at the bottom of the support plate 32, and a movable frame 34 is slidably connected to the bottom of the support plate 32. The top of the movable frame 34 passes through the slide groove 33 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the trough 2. The back of the movable frame 34 is fixedly connected to a movable rod 35. There are two movable rods 35. The distance between the two movable rods 35 is the same as the length of the eccentric wheel 38. The eccentric wheel 38 is located between the two movable rods 35. The movable rods 35 are pushed to move back and forth by the rotation and compression of the eccentric wheel 38. The top of the bottom plate 1 is fixedly installed with a motor 36 to drive the rotating rod 37 to rotate. The top of the output end of the motor 36 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 37. The outer wall of the rotating rod 37 is fixedly fitted with an eccentric wheel 38. When the eccentric wheel 38 rotates with the rotating rod 37, it periodically squeezes the movable rods 35 on both sides using the eccentric structure, thereby driving the movable frame 34 and the trough 2 to achieve horizontal reciprocating motion and complete the uniform spreading of feed.

[0023] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2A feeding mechanism 4 is provided on the top of the base plate 1. The feeding mechanism 4 includes a side plate 41, which is fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. A storage tank 42 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the side plate 41 for storing a large amount of feed. A feeding pipe is connected to the bottom of the storage tank 42, and a control valve is provided on the feeding pipe. A stirring rod 43 is rotatably inserted through the top of the storage tank 42, and stirring blades are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the stirring rod 43 for mixing pig feed and preventing feed from clumping and clogging the feeding pipe. The stirring rod 43 is connected to the rotating rod 37 via a synchronous belt pulley. When the rotating rod 37 rotates, it can drive the stirring rod 43. The feed tube rotates synchronously, and a connecting rod 45 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the feed tube. The connecting rod 45 moves through the outer wall of the side plate 41. A spring 46 is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 45. The two ends of the spring 46 are fixedly connected to the side plate 41 and the feed tube, respectively. A rotating disk 44 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating rod 37. One end of the connecting rod 45 contacts the outer wall of the rotating disk 44. When the rotating disk 44 rotates with the rotating rod 37, it periodically pushes the connecting rod 45 and the feed tube to sway laterally. With the reset action of the spring 46, the feed tube forms a high-frequency small-amplitude vibration, which further avoids the feed from clogging in the feed tube and ensures smooth and uniform feeding.

[0024] Working principle: The starting motor 36 drives the rotating rod 37 to rotate synchronously. When the rotating rod 37 rotates, it drives the eccentric wheel 38 on the outer wall to rotate as well. Since the eccentric wheel 38 is located between two moving rods 35 whose spacing matches its length, the rotating eccentric wheel 38 will periodically squeeze the moving rods 35 on both sides, causing the moving frame 34, which is fixed to the moving rods 35, to slide horizontally back and forth along the slide groove 33 at the bottom of the support plate 32. The top of the moving frame 34 passes through the slide groove 33 and is fixedly connected to the bottom of the groove 2. Therefore, the moving frame 34 will synchronously drive the groove 2 to perform horizontal back and forth motion. Four support columns 31 are symmetrically arranged at the four corners of the bottom of the support plate 32 to provide stable vertical support and load-bearing for the entire reciprocating mechanism 3. The horizontal reciprocating motion of the trough 2 can make the feed falling into it evenly distributed, avoiding local accumulation or competition for feeding. On the other hand, the rotating rod 37 drives the stirring rod 43 on the top of the storage tank 42 to rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt pulley. The stirring blades on the outer wall of the stirring rod 43 stir the feed in the tank, effectively breaking up the clumps of feed. At the same time, the rotation of the rotating rod 37 will drive the rotating disk 44 on the outer wall to rotate. The rotating disk 44 periodically pushes the connecting rod in contact with it. 45 moves axially, thereby causing the feed pipe fixed to the connecting rod 45 to sway laterally. The two ends of the spring 46 sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 45 are fixed to the side plate 41 and the feed pipe respectively. When the feed pipe moves with the connecting rod 45, the spring 46 will deform. Using the restoring force of the spring 46, the feed pipe will form a high-frequency small-amplitude reciprocating vibration with the rotation of the rotating disk 44. The storage tank 42 on the outside of the side plate 41 is used to store pig feed. After opening the control valve on the feed pipe at the bottom of the storage tank 42, the feed in the tank can fall into the trough 2 below along the feed pipe. The stirring rod 43 stirs. The combined action of mixing and vibration of the feeding pipe effectively prevents feed from sticking and clogging the feeding pipe. The feeding speed and amount can also be adjusted by the control valve to achieve quantitative feeding. The reciprocating mechanism 3 and the feeding mechanism 4 of the whole device share a motor 36 as a power source. The rotating rod 37, as the core transmission component, drives the eccentric wheel 38, the stirring rod 43, and the rotating disk 44 to operate simultaneously, realizing the synchronous operation of feeding, mixing, and vibration feeding. No additional power device is required. The structure is compact, energy-saving and efficient, and completes the automated feeding process from feed storage, anti-caking feeding to feeding in the trough.

[0025] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
