Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, specifically to a pig feed feeder for precise quantitative feeding. Background Technology

[0002] Feeding pigs is a crucial aspect of pig farming, directly impacting herd growth and profitability. Scientific feeding not only meets the nutritional needs of pigs at different growth stages but also improves feed conversion ratio, facilitating large-scale, modernized farming and ensuring a stable supply of pork.

[0003] Utility model patent CN220528943U discloses a pig feed feeding device. The pig feed feeding device includes a base, a first baffle installed on one side of the top of the base, a bracket provided above the first baffle, and a sliding groove provided on the bracket; a feeding mechanism is provided on the bracket, and a feeding mechanism is provided at the top of the feeding mechanism; a second baffle is provided at the feeding end of the feeding mechanism. The pig feed feeding device can perform quantitative feeding, and through the feeding mechanism and the feeding mechanism, it can achieve automated feeding, reducing the loss of manpower.

[0004] The current pig feed feeding device uses a fixed structure for quantitative feeding. Once the feed amount is set, it is difficult to change. It cannot flexibly adjust the feed amount according to factors such as the increase or decrease in the number of pigs, changes in the growth cycle, and weather. In view of this, we propose a pig feed feeder with precise quantitative feeding. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a precise quantitative pig feed feeder to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A precise quantitative feeding pig feeder includes a base with a hopper on it. A guide frame is located below the hopper, and a quantitative feeding mechanism is slidably connected to the guide frame. The quantitative feeding mechanism includes a base plate, a top plate located above the base plate and driving the base plate to move synchronously, and a material bucket with an adjustable volume. The material bucket is sandwiched between the base plate and the top plate, and a hydraulic cylinder is connected to the right end of the base plate.

[0008] The right end of the base plate is provided with a side seat, and the left end of the base plate is connected to a discharge pipe;

[0009] The top plate has an opening, the position of which is offset from the position of the discharge pipe. Several guide rods are fixed to the right end of the top plate and are rotatably connected to a screw. The bottom end of the guide rod passes through the side seat and is slidably connected to the side seat. The bottom end of the screw is threaded to the side seat.

[0010] The material container includes a bottom sleeve and a top sleeve fitted around the top periphery of the bottom sleeve. The top sleeve is fixed. The bottom of the bottom sleeve has a discharge port and the top of the top sleeve has an inlet. The volume of the material container is controlled by controlling the vertical movement of the bottom sleeve inside the top sleeve.

[0011] Preferably, the base has a first upright at its top, the hopper is fixed to the top of the first upright, and the top sleeve is fixedly connected to the first upright.

[0012] In this configuration, the hopper and the top sleeve are fixed by the first upright, providing stable support for feed storage and material bucket volume adjustment, ensuring the structural stability of the equipment during operation.

[0013] Preferably, a second support is provided on the right side of the top surface of the base, the hydraulic cylinder is fixed to the right end of the second support, and the end of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder is fixedly connected to the right end face of the top plate.

[0014] In this configuration, the cooperation between the second support and the hydraulic cylinder provides a stable power source for the sliding of the quantitative material handling mechanism, enabling the base plate, top plate, and material bucket to move smoothly back and forth on the guide frame to complete the material handling and discharge actions.

[0015] Preferably, the guide frame seat has a rectangular frame structure, the guide frame seat is fixedly connected to the second upright seat, and grooves are provided at the top edges of the front and rear sides inside the guide frame seat. The top seat plate overlaps between the two grooves and is slidably connected to the guide frame seat.

[0016] In this design, the rectangular guide frame and groove design enhance the guidance and stability of the top plate during sliding, ensuring the precise movement trajectory of the quantitative material handling mechanism.

[0017] Preferably, a clamping assembly is also provided at the front edge of the top surface of the side seat. The clamping assembly includes a fixed clamp fixed on the side seat and a movable clamp located in front of the fixed clamp. The guide rod located at the front position is clamped between the fixed clamp and the movable clamp. A shank screw is sleeved in the movable clamp. The end of the shank screw passes through the movable clamp and is threaded to the fixed clamp.

[0018] In this configuration, the clamping assembly securely clamps the guide rod through a fixed clamp, a movable clamp, and a shank screw, preventing it from shaking or shifting during equipment operation.

[0019] Preferably, the lengths of both the guide rod and the lead screw are greater than the height of the material bucket, and a handwheel is connected to the top of the lead screw;

[0020] In this setup, the longer guide rod and lead screw, in conjunction with the handwheel, provide ample travel for adjusting the volume of the material container.

[0021] Preferably, a pair of limiting blocks are sleeved on the outer side of one of the guide rods. When the base plate moves upward and abuts against the upper limiting block, the material bucket is in a minimum compressed state. When the base plate moves downward and abuts against the lower limiting block, the material bucket is in a maximum stretched state.

[0022] In this setting, the limit block sets the movement boundary of the base plate, precisely limiting the volume adjustment range of the material bucket, avoiding excessive movement that could damage the equipment, and ensuring that the quantitative material dispensing amount is within a safe and reasonable range.

[0023] Preferably, a sealing ring is embedded on the outer peripheral surface of the top of the bottom sleeve barrel;

[0024] In this design, the sealing ring enhances the seal between the bottom and top sleeves, preventing feed from leaking through gaps when the material container volume is adjusted.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0026] This precise quantitative feeding pig feed dispenser, through its quantitative feeding mechanism, precisely controls the distance between the base plate and the top plate by rotating the lead screw. Based on the threaded transmission principle between the lead screw and the side seat, and in conjunction with the sliding guidance of the guide rod and the side seat, the distance changes directly affect the material hopper, driving the bottom sleeve hopper to make a vertical linear displacement within the top sleeve hopper. This achieves stepless adjustment of the material hopper volume, allowing for precise and flexible quantitative feeding of feed falling from the hopper for pigs at different growth stages and with different farming scales.

[0037] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.

[0038] Please see Figures 1-7A precise quantitative feeding pig feed dispenser includes a base 1, on which a hopper 12 for storing pig feed is provided. A guide frame 14 is located below the hopper 12, and a quantitative feeding mechanism 2 is slidably connected to the guide frame 14. The quantitative feeding mechanism 2 includes a base plate 21, a top plate 22 located above the base plate 21 and driving the base plate 21 to move synchronously, and a material bucket 23 with adjustable volume. The guide frame 14 provides sliding guidance for the quantitative feeding mechanism 2, ensuring its stability. The material bucket 23 is sandwiched between the base plate 21 and the top plate 22. The right end of the base plate 21 is connected to a hydraulic cylinder 15. A second support 13 is also provided on the right side of the top surface of the base 1. The hydraulic cylinder 15 is fixed to the right end of the second support 13. The piston rod end of the hydraulic cylinder 15 is fixedly connected to the right end face of the top plate 22. The hydraulic cylinder 15 provides power for the sliding of the quantitative material handling mechanism 2 by cooperating with the second support 13, so that it can reciprocate on the guide frame seat 14 to complete the material handling and discharge actions.

[0039] like Figures 1-4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in this utility model, the right end of the base plate 21 is provided with a side seat 211, and the left end of the base plate 21 is connected to a discharge pipe 212 for discharging a quantitative amount of feed. The top plate 22 has an opening 221, the position of which is offset from the position of the discharge pipe 212, preventing feed leakage from the discharge pipe 212 during non-discharging stages. The guide frame 14 has a rectangular frame structure and is fixedly connected to the second upright 13. Grooves are provided at the top edges of both the front and rear sides inside the guide frame 14. The top plate 22 overlaps between the two grooves and is slidably connected to the guide frame 14, restricting the movement of the top plate 22 within the guide frame 14 and preventing the top plate 22 from detaching from the guide frame 14. The bottom sleeve 231 has a discharge port 2311 at its bottom end, and the top sleeve 232 has an inlet port 2321 at its top end. When the hydraulic cylinder 15 works and pulls the top seat plate 22 to the right, causing the top seat plate 22 to slide to the right end of the guide frame seat 14, the outlet 221 moves with the top seat plate 22 to the space between the hopper 12 and the inlet port 2321, so that the pig feed in the hopper 12 falls into the material bucket 23 until the pig feed fills the material bucket 23, completing the quantitative feeding of pig feed. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 15 is controlled to work and push the top seat plate 22 to the left, so that the top seat plate 22 drives the base plate 21 to move to the left. When the top seat plate 22 slides to the left end of the guide frame seat 14, the discharge port 2311 is connected to the discharge pipe 212, so that the pig feed in the material bucket 23 is discharged out through the discharge pipe 212, so that the pig feed can be fed.

[0040] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, specifically, several guide rods 222 are fixed to the right end of the top plate 22 and rotatably connected to a lead screw 223. The bottom end of the guide rod 222 passes through the side seat 211 and is slidably connected to the side seat 211. The guide rod 222 provides guidance for the relative movement of the base plate 21 and the top plate 22, ensuring movement accuracy. The bottom end of the lead screw 223 is threadedly connected to the side seat 211. The lengths of both the guide rod 222 and the lead screw 223 are greater than the height of the material bucket 23. A handwheel 2231 is connected to the top end of the lead screw 223. The handwheel 2231 can drive the lead screw 223 to rotate, thereby adjusting the distance between the base plate 21 and the top plate 22 under the action of the thread.

[0041] like Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the material bin 23 further includes a bottom sleeve bin 231 and a top sleeve bin 232 fitted around the top periphery of the bottom sleeve bin 231. The top sleeve bin 232 is fixedly connected to the first upright 11, so that the top sleeve bin 232 is in a fixed state. The volume of the material bin 23 is controlled by controlling the vertical movement of the bottom sleeve bin 231 inside the top sleeve bin 232. When the distance between the top plate 22 and the base plate 21 decreases, the fixed state of the top sleeve 232 causes the base plate 21 to push the bottom sleeve 231 upward, causing the bottom sleeve 231 to retract into the top sleeve 232. At this time, the volume of the material bucket 23 decreases. When the distance between the top plate 22 and the material bucket 23 increases, the fixed state of the top sleeve 232 causes the bottom sleeve 231 to move downward with the base plate 21 under the action of gravity, causing the bottom sleeve 231 to extend downward from the bottom of the top sleeve 232. At this time, the volume of the material bucket 23 increases. By changing the volume of the material bucket 23, precise quantitative material dispensing can be achieved.

[0042] like Figure 7 As shown, in addition, a sealing ring 2312 is embedded on the outer surface of the top of the bottom sleeve 231. The sealing ring 2312 can enhance the sealing between the bottom sleeve 231 and the top sleeve 232, and prevent feed from leaking out from the gaps during the volume adjustment of the material bucket 23.

[0043] like Figures 3-5As shown, it is worth noting that a clamping assembly 213 is also provided at the front edge of the top surface of the side seat 211. The clamping assembly 213 includes a fixed clamp 2131 fixed on the side seat 211 and a movable clamp 2132 located in front of the fixed clamp 2131. The guide rod 222 located at the front position is clamped between the fixed clamp 2131 and the movable clamp 2132. A shank screw 2133 is sleeved in the movable clamp 2132. The end of the shank screw 2133 passes through the movable clamp 2132 and is threadedly connected to the fixed clamp 2131. The clamping assembly 213, through the cooperation of the fixed clamp 2131, the movable clamp 2132 and the shank screw 2133, enables the movable clamp 2132 to firmly clamp the guide rod 222 onto the fixed clamp 2131 when the shank screw 2133 is tightened, preventing the guide rod 222 from shaking or shifting during equipment operation and ensuring the stability of the volume adjustment of the material bucket 23.

[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, it is worth noting that a pair of limiting blocks 224 are sleeved on the outer side of one of the guide rods 222. When the base plate 21 moves upward and abuts against the upper limiting block 224, the material bucket 23 is in the minimum compressed state. When the base plate 21 moves downward and abuts against the lower limiting block 224, the material bucket 23 is in the maximum stretched state. The limiting block 224 provides a limit for the movement of the base plate 21, determines the maximum and minimum range of the volume adjustment of the material bucket 23, avoids excessive movement of the base plate 21 that could damage the equipment, and ensures that the quantitative material dispensing amount is within a reasonable range.

[0045] In this embodiment of the precise quantitative feeding pig feed dispenser, during use, firstly, the handwheel 2231 at the top of the lead screw 223 is rotated. Through the threaded transmission between the lead screw 223 and the side seat 211, and the guiding action of the guide rod 222, the distance between the base plate 21 and the top seat plate 22 is adjusted. When the distance between the top seat plate 22 and the base plate 21 decreases, due to the fixed state of the top sleeve 232, the base plate 21 pushes the bottom sleeve 231 upward, causing the bottom sleeve 231 to retract into the top sleeve 232. At this time, the volume of the material bucket 23 decreases. When the distance between the top seat plate 22 and the material bucket 23 increases, due to the fixed state of the top sleeve 232, the bottom sleeve 231 moves downward with the base plate 21 under the action of gravity, causing the bottom sleeve 231 to extend downward from the bottom of the top sleeve 232. At this time, the volume of the material bucket... The volume of 23 increases, and by changing the volume of material bucket 23, precise quantitative feeding is achieved. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 15 is activated, causing the hydraulic cylinder 15 to work and pull the top seat plate 22 to the right, so that the top seat plate 22 slides to the right end of the guide frame seat 14. The outlet 221 moves with the top seat plate 22 to between the hopper 12 and the inlet 2321, so that the pig feed in the hopper 12 falls into the material bucket 23 until the pig feed fills the material bucket 23, completing the quantitative feeding of pig feed. Finally, the hydraulic cylinder 15 is controlled to work and push the top seat plate 22 to the left, so that the top seat plate 22 drives the base plate 21 to move to the left. When the top seat plate 22 slides to the left end of the guide frame seat 14, the discharge port 2311 is connected to the discharge pipe 212, so that the pig feed in the material bucket 23 is discharged out through the discharge pipe 212, so that the pig feed can be fed.

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