[0002] With the development of large-scale beef cattle farming, efficient and hygienic feed management has become a key aspect of improving farming efficiency. In traditional beef cattle farming, feed feeding mainly relies on manual operation, requiring manual cleaning of residual feed in the feeding troughs before secondary feeding.

[0003] The following significant drawbacks exist: First, manual cleaning is inefficient and labor-intensive, especially in multi-cattle sheds where it is difficult to meet the high-frequency feeding needs; second, residual feed is prone to bacterial growth or mold, and if not cleaned in time, it may affect the health of beef cattle; third, traditional feeding devices have limited functions, only able to complete a single feeding or cleaning operation, requiring additional cleaning equipment and increasing breeding costs. Therefore, we provide a beef cattle feed feeding device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The first bevel gear meshes with the second bevel gear, turning the vertical shaft rotation of the motor into horizontal shaft movement, driving the transmission rod to rotate.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a third bevel gear is fixedly connected to one end of the transmission rod, a fourth bevel gear meshes with the surface of the third bevel gear, and a conveying component is fixedly connected to the shaft of the fourth bevel gear. The third bevel gear at the end of the transmission rod meshes with the fourth bevel gear, thereby converting the horizontal axis to the vertical axis for output and driving the conveying component.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the conveying assembly includes a first conveying roller, a conveyor belt, and a second conveying roller, wherein the conveyor belt is drivenly connected to the surface of the first conveying roller, and the second conveying roller is drivenly connected to the first conveying roller through the conveyor belt.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that a recycling roller is fixedly connected to the surface of the drive motor, and a recycling belt is driven to the surface of the recycling roller.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 Based on Embodiment 1, a drive motor 10 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed frame 3. A first bevel gear 11 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 10. A second bevel gear 12 meshes with the surface of the first bevel gear 11. The axis of the second bevel gear 12 is fixedly connected to the surface of the transmission rod 6. A third bevel gear 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the transmission rod 6. A fourth bevel gear 14 meshes with the surface of the third bevel gear 13. A conveying assembly 15 is fixedly connected to the axis of the fourth bevel gear 14. The conveying assembly 15 includes a first conveying roller 151, a conveyor belt 152, and a second conveying roller 153. A conveyor belt 152 is drivenly connected to the surface of the first conveying roller 151. The conveyor belt 152 is connected to the first conveyor roller 151 via the conveyor belt 152 and the second conveyor roller 153. The drive motor 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the recovery roller 16 and the recovery belt 17 is connected to the surface of the recovery roller 16. The output shaft of the drive motor 10 is fixedly connected to the first gear 18 and the surface of the first gear 18 is meshed with the second gear 19. The feed roller 20 is fixedly connected to the shaft of the second gear 19 and the feed belt 21 is connected to the surface of the feed roller 20. The inner cavity of the fixed cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to the spring 22 and the other end of the spring 22 is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle 8. The other end of the extension rod 9 is movably connected to the bottom of the cleaning plate 4.

[0030] Further details: The output shaft of the drive motor 10 is coaxially connected to the first bevel gear 11 and the first gear 18, enabling multi-channel output from a single motor. The first bevel gear 11 meshes with the second bevel gear 12, converting the vertical axis of the motor into a horizontal axis, driving the transmission rod 6 to rotate. The third bevel gear 13 at the end of the transmission rod 6 meshes with the fourth bevel gear 14, converting the horizontal axis into a vertical axis output, driving the conveying assembly 15. The first conveying roller 151 is coaxially fixed with the fourth bevel gear 14. The output shaft of the drive motor 10 drives the recovery roller 16 to rotate, which is transmitted to the collection trough inside the feed box 1 via the recovery belt 17. The output shaft of the drive motor 10 drives the feeding roller 20 to rotate via the first gear 18 and the second gear 19. The feeding roller 20 pushes the feed to the feeding trough via the feeding belt 21. When the cleaning plate 4 encounters a protrusion in the feeding trough, the extension rod 9 pushes the baffle 8 to compress the spring 22 to store energy. After passing the obstacle, the spring 22 releases energy to maintain the scraping force and avoid damage from hard collisions.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: the device is pushed to the side of the target feeding trough by the four universal wheels 2 at the bottom of the feed box 1, and the position is adjusted so that the cleaning plate 4 is facing the inner cavity of the feeding trough. When the cleaning plate 4 encounters a protrusion in the feeding trough, the extension rod 9 pushes the baffle 8 to compress the spring 22 to store energy. After passing the obstacle, the spring 22 releases energy to maintain the scraping force and avoid damage from hard collision.

[0032] When the drive motor 10 is started, the output shaft of the drive motor 10 drives the feeding roller 20 to rotate through the first gear 18 and the second gear 19. The feeding belt 21 pushes the feed in the feed box 1 to the feeding trough. At the same time, the output shaft of the drive motor 10 drives the transmission rod 6 to rotate through the first bevel gear 11 and the second bevel gear 12. The transmission rod 6 drives the first conveying roller 151 to rotate through the third bevel gear 13 and the fourth bevel gear 14.

[0033] During the movement of the feed bin 1, the cleaning plate 4 scrapes the residual feed into the conveying assembly 15. The residual feed is then conveyed to the surface of the recycling belt 17 via the first conveying roller 151, the conveyor belt 152, and the second conveying roller 153. The output shaft of the drive motor 10 collects the residue into the inner cavity of the feed bin 1 through the recycling roller 16 and the recycling belt 17, thus realizing the integration of automatic feed dispensing, feeding trough cleaning, and residue recycling, replacing traditional manual operation and greatly improving feeding efficiency.
