Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of poultry farming technology, and in particular to an automatically cleaning chicken feed trough. Background Technology

[0002] Poultry farming is a method of converting plant feed into animal energy, mainly providing people with animal-based foods such as meat, milk, and eggs, or providing industries with raw materials such as wool, cashmere, hides, bristles, animal bones, and casings. It plays an important role in the national economy. Currently, chicken and eggs are food ingredients used by every household, and the chicken farming industry has closely followed my country's development. Feed costs account for 60-70% of the cost of raising chickens. However, existing chicken feeders have the following problems: the feed in the trough is not completely eaten, and then fresh feed is added. Over time, moldy and spoiled feed accumulates at the bottom of the feeder, producing pathogens. When poultry eat this feed, they become sick and spread the disease, causing huge losses to the farm.

[0003] However, existing chicken feed troughs are usually cleaned manually, which involves a large amount of work and is slow. Especially in the summer when the temperature is high, if manual cleaning is not done in time, moldy feed will be produced. Utility Model Content

[0021] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] Reference Figures 1-3This is the first embodiment of the present invention, providing an automatically cleaning chicken feed trough, including a fixed base 1. A cleaning component 2 is provided at the middle of the fixed base 1. The cleaning component 2 includes a feed trough 201 located at the middle of the fixed base 1. The inner cavity of the feed trough 201 has a water trough 202 and a feed trough 203 sequentially arranged from the inside out. A rotating rod 204 is provided at the middle of the upper end of the feed trough 201. A first gear 205, a receiving plate 209, a sliding sleeve 208, and a spring 215 are sequentially fitted onto the outer wall of the rotating rod 204 from top to bottom. The upper end of 201 is provided with a first motor 206, the output end of the first motor 206 is provided with a second gear 207, the outer wall of one side of the sliding sleeve 208 is provided with a mounting plate 210, the end of the mounting plate 210 away from the sliding sleeve 208 is provided with two sets of mounting rods 212, the lower end of the mounting rods 212 is provided with a cleaning plate 213, the feed basin 201 is located at the lower end of the water tank 202 and the feed tank 203 and has a discharge port 220, the inner wall of the discharge port 220 is provided with a discharge plate 218, and the outer wall of the feed basin 201 is provided with a second motor 217.

[0024] Two sets of cleaning plates 213 are respectively movably inserted into the inner walls of the water tank 202 and the material tank 203, and the cleaning plates 213 are in contact with the inner walls of the water tank 202 and the material tank 203.

[0025] The mounting plate 210 has a slot 211 at the end away from the sliding sleeve 208 that mates with the mounting rod 212. The upper end of the mounting rod 212 is movably inserted into the slot 211. Two sets of bolts 214 are threaded into the outer wall of the mounting plate 210. The upper end of the mounting rod 212 has a socket that mates with the bolts 214. The front end of the bolts 214 is movably inserted into the socket.

[0026] The first gear 205 and the second gear 207 mesh with each other, and the lower end of the rotating rod 204 is rotatably connected to the feed container 201.

[0027] The sliding sleeve 208 is movably sleeved on the upper end of the outer wall of the rotating rod 204, the receiving plate 209 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating rod 204, and the upper and lower ends of the spring 215 are fixedly connected to the rotating rod 204 and the sliding sleeve 208, respectively.

[0028] A sliding rod 216 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the rotating rod 204, and a sliding groove that cooperates with the sliding rod 216 is provided on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 208.

[0029] One end of the discharge plate 218 is hinged to the discharge port 220. The output end of the second motor 217 passes through the feed basin 201 and is fixedly connected to the discharge plate 218. A sealing sleeve 219 is fixedly fitted on the outer wall of the discharge plate 218. When the discharge plate 218 is located inside the discharge port 220, the sealing sleeve 219 can seal the gap between the discharge plate 218 and the discharge port 220, preventing water in the water tank 202 and feed in the feed trough 203 from flowing out of the feed basin 201 from the gap between the discharge plate 218 and the discharge port 220.

[0030] When cleaning of the water tank 202 and the material tank 203 is required, the second motor 217 is started, causing the discharge plate 218 to rotate at a certain angle, so that the discharge plate 218 moves out of the mounting plate 210, and the water remaining in the water tank 202 flows out from the lower end of the discharge port 220. Then, the first motor 206 is started, driving the second gear 207 to rotate, the second gear 207 drives the first gear 205 to rotate, the first gear 205 drives the rotating rod 204 to rotate, the rotating rod 204 drives the sliding sleeve 208 to rotate through the sliding rod 216, and the rotation of the sliding sleeve 208 drives the mounting plate 210 to rotate. The two sets of mounting rods 212 are driven to rotate, and the mounting rods 212 drive the cleaning plate 213 to rotate circumferentially along the inner wall of the water tank 202 and the feed trough 203. Since the cleaning plate 213 is in contact with the inner wall of the water tank 202 and the feed trough 203, the cleaning plate 213 can clean the water tank 202 and the feed trough 203. When the cleaning plate 213 passes the upper end of the discharge port 220, the feed and debris remaining in the feed basin 201 fall out through the discharge port 220, thereby automatically cleaning the feed basin 201 without manual cleaning, reducing the labor intensity of workers and increasing cleaning efficiency.

[0031] After repeated use, residual feed may adhere to the cleaning plate 213. At this point, the worker can slide the sliding sleeve 208 upwards along the rotating rod 204. The sliding sleeve 208 compresses the spring 215, and the cleaning plate 213 gradually moves out of the water trough 202 and feed trough 203. When the cleaning plate 213 is located above the feed trough 201, the bolt 214 is unscrewed from the insertion hole in the mounting rod 212. The mounting rod 212 is then slid outwards along the slot 211, allowing the mounting rod 212 to be removed from the upper end of the mounting plate 210, thus enabling quick cleaning of the cleaning plate 213. After maintenance and cleaning, reinsert the mounting rod 212 into the slot 211, align the bolt 214 with the insertion hole on the mounting rod 212 and screw it in to install the mounting rod 212 onto the upper end of the mounting plate 210. Then, loosen the sliding sleeve 208, and under the reverse elastic force of the spring 215, push the sliding sleeve 208 downward until the sliding sleeve 208 contacts the receiving plate 209. At this time, the cleaning plate 213 is inserted into the water tank 202 and the material tank 203, and the installation of the cleaning plate 213 is completed. The entire installation process is quick and convenient, making it easy to clean and maintain the cleaning plate 213.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Reference Figures 1-3This is the second embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: a third motor 3 is fixedly provided on the upper end of the fixed base 1, and a ball screw 4 is provided at the output end of the third motor 3. The lower end of the ball screw 4 is rotatably connected to the fixed base 1. One end of the outer wall of the food basin 201 is movably sleeved on the outer wall of the ball screw 4. The outer wall of the food basin 201 is provided with a thread that cooperates with the ball screw 4. A fixing rod 5 is fixedly provided at the symmetrical end of the fixed base 1 and the ball screw 4. The end of the food basin 201 away from the ball screw 4 is movably sleeved on the fixing rod 5.

[0034] When the feed and water in the feed trough 201 deteriorate, the third motor 3 is activated to drive the ball screw 4 to rotate. The feed trough 201 slides upward along the outer wall of the ball screw 4 and the fixed rod 5, increasing the height of the feed trough 201 until the chickens can no longer eat the deteriorated food in the feed trough 201. This prevents the chickens from accidentally eating the deteriorated feed and water in the feed trough 201 and getting sick.

[0035] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.
