Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of livestock breeding equipment technology, specifically to a dust removal feeding trough for cows. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of agricultural and livestock mechanization, baled hay commonly carries the problem of dust. Direct feeding of dusty hay into traditional troughs can easily lead to respiratory diseases in cattle. Existing equipment lacks effective dust removal structures, and the problem is particularly prominent in areas with high levels of dust. Insufficient dust removal of hay not only affects livestock health but also results in low feed utilization. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned technical shortcomings, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cow dust-removing feeder with a simple structure and significant dust removal effect.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: The present invention provides a cow dust removal feeding trough, including a support frame, the support frame being welded from three square steels, two connecting rods being provided on the support frame, and multiple downward-curved arc-shaped mesh sheets being provided between the two connecting rods, with multiple filter holes opened on the mesh sheets.
[0005] Preferably, the bottom of the support frame is further provided with a support rod for bearing weight.
[0006] Preferably, a connecting piece is provided at the bottom of every two mesh panels at the connection point, and every two mesh panels are fixedly connected to the connecting piece by screws, so that the mesh panels are connected as a whole.
[0007] Preferably, the square steel has dimensions of 40×60mm and a length of 6m.
[0008] Preferably, the number of mesh panels is 3, the thickness of the mesh panels is 1mm, and the size is 1m×2m.
[0009] Preferably, the diameter of the filter mesh is less than 5 mm.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: By setting up a mesh with fine filter holes, dust and sand in the hay bales can naturally fall to the ground during placement, allowing cattle to eat clean, dust-free hay. This not only helps protect the respiratory health of cattle and reduce the occurrence of digestive system diseases, but also improves the utilization rate of hay, reduces breeding costs, and brings tangible economic benefits and management convenience to herders.

[0015] 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.
[0016] Example: This utility model provides a cow dust removal feeding trough, including a support frame 1, which is welded from three square steel bars. The square steel bars are selected with a specification of 3.5 inches, a size of 40×60mm, and a length of 6 meters. The square steel bars of this specification have good strength and stability and can provide a solid frame support for the feeding trough.
[0017] Two stainless steel connecting rods 2 are installed on the support frame 1. A downwardly curved arc-shaped mesh 3 is positioned between the two connecting rods 2. The mesh 3 is fixed to the inner side of the connecting rods 2 with screws. The mesh 3 is 1mm thick and 1m × 2m in size. In this embodiment, a total of three mesh 3s are used. It is worth noting that filter holes are formed on the mesh 3. The diameter of the filter holes must not exceed 5mm. The fine mesh design ensures that the forage can be placed smoothly while effectively causing dust and sand to fall off, thus preventing excessive leakage and waste. The number of filter holes is not limited and can be determined according to actual use.
[0018] The bottom of the support frame 1 is also equipped with a support rod 4 to bear the weight.
[0019] A connecting piece 5 is provided at the bottom of the connection between every two mesh pieces 3. Every two mesh pieces 3 are fixedly connected to the connecting piece 5 by screws, so that the mesh pieces 3 are connected as a whole.
[0020] The dust-removing feeder for cows provided by this utility model features a unique structural design that allows dust and sand from the hay bales to naturally fall to the ground during placement. The cows' natural pulling motion while feeding loosens the hay, and the dust falls through the mesh of the mesh panel 3. Daily cleaning of the mesh panel 3 is sufficient to keep the forage clean. The natural fall of dust and sand to the ground ensures that the cows eat clean, dust-free hay. This not only helps protect the respiratory health of the cattle and reduces the incidence of digestive system diseases, but also improves forage utilization, reduces breeding costs, and brings tangible economic benefits and management convenience to farmers.
[0021] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
