Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of breeding technology, and specifically relates to a feeder for baby rabbits. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of artificial feeding of baby rabbits, traditional methods mostly use handheld bottles or fixed feeding devices. Handheld feeding is inefficient and difficult to maintain a stable angle, which can easily cause baby rabbits to choke on milk; existing fixed devices have the following drawbacks: high cost; baby rabbits grow rapidly, and fixed height devices cannot be adapted to different growth stages; therefore, there is an urgent need for an adjustable feeder that can feed multiple baby rabbits. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a feeder for baby rabbits.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following measures: a baby rabbit feeder, characterized in that it includes two symmetrically arranged supports, a top plate is rotatably arranged on the upper part of the two supports, a plurality of tubular containers are arranged on the top plate, a nipple is arranged at the lower end of the container, and the upper end of the container is open.

[0005] It also includes a locking mechanism for the top plate. The nipple is typically a silicone nipple or a silicone tube with small holes.

[0006] Furthermore, the locking component includes a screw and a nut fixedly disposed at both ends of the top plate, wherein the screw passes through the bracket and is tightened and fixed by the nut.

[0007] Furthermore, the bracket includes a base, a vertical rod fixedly mounted on the base, and an outer sleeve sleeved on the vertical rod, with the screw extending out of the upper part of the outer sleeve;

[0008] The upright and the outer tube are connected by bolts, and both the upright and the outer tube are provided with several adjustment holes that cooperate with the bolts.

[0009] Furthermore, the top plate is provided with a plurality of mounting holes for placing individual containers;

[0010] Alternatively, a long opening for placing multiple containers may be provided along the length of the top plate.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a clamping component for the container, wherein two outwardly expanding plates are symmetrically arranged along the outer edge of the upper end face of the container, extending beyond the mounting hole or the elongated opening, and the width of the outwardly expanding plates is smaller than the inner diameter of the mounting hole or the width of the elongated opening.

[0012] The clamping component includes two symmetrically arranged pressure plates. The top plate is fixedly provided with studs at both ends. The two ends of the pressure plates are sleeved on the studs and fixed by nuts. The pressure plates can clamp the outer expansion plate and are located outside the mounting hole or elongated hole.

[0013] Furthermore, fixed plates, lower than the top plate, are fixedly installed on both ends of the top plate. The fixed plates are fixedly connected to the top plate, and the fixed plates and pressure plates are connected by springs. The upper end of the spring is fixed to the pressure plate, and the lower end of the spring is fixed to the fixed plate. When the nut on the stud is not tightened, the container can be compressed by the springs and pressure plates.

[0014] Furthermore, the container is generally circular and has markings indicating its capacity on its outer wall. The container is typically a 10-20 ml cylinder with a length between 15 and 20 cm.

[0015] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the mounting hole and the width of the elongated opening are generally slightly larger than the outer diameter of the container.

[0016] How to use:

[0017] After attaching the outer sleeve to the upright, fix it to the required height with bolts; insert the two outer plates along their length into the mounting holes or elongated openings of the top plate, ensuring that the outer expansion plates overlap the upper surface of the top plate; insert the two ends of the pressure plate into the top plate studs, tighten the nuts to press the pressure plate against the outer expansion plates, rotate the top plate to a suitable tilt angle (usually 15°-30°), and tighten the nuts on both sides of the bracket to lock the screws; inject milk or liquid feed through the opening at the top of the container, controlling the volume according to the scale; manually guide the baby rabbits to suckle the nipple, and disassemble the container for cleaning and disinfection after feeding.

[0018] Additionally, when using a long, narrow opening, the spacing between containers can be adjusted by loosening the nuts securing the pressure plate and sliding the containers. A spring can then be used to tighten the container, preventing changes in the position of other containers. Since the width of the outer plate is less than the width of the long, narrow opening, the width of the outer plate can be aligned with the width of the long, narrow opening by rotating the containers. This allows for the removal of individual containers without needing to remove the pressure plate. Installation can also be performed from below the long, narrow opening.

[0019] The beneficial effects of the technical solution provided by this utility model embodiment are as follows: the symmetrical support and rotating top plate design allow for free adjustment of the feeding angle; the tubular container has an open top for easy feeding at any time, and the nipple at the bottom simulates the nursing posture of a mother rabbit; the locking component ensures that the top plate stays stably at the optimal angle; the combination of the upright and outer tube allows for height adjustment to suit rabbits of different ages; the elongated opening design allows for flexible adjustment of the container spacing to accommodate the size differences of rabbits in the same litter; the stud, nut and single pressure plate can clamp multiple containers, and disassembly is convenient when cleaning the containers.

[0031] The locking component 6 includes a screw and a nut fixedly installed at both ends of the top plate. The screw passes through the bracket 1 and is tightened by the nut.

[0032] The bracket 1 includes a base 101, a vertical rod 102 fixedly mounted on the base 101, and an outer sleeve 103 sleeved on the vertical rod 102, with a screw extending out of the upper part of the outer sleeve 103;

[0033] The upright 102 and the outer sleeve 103 are connected by bolts 10. Both the upright 102 and the outer sleeve 103 are provided with several adjustment holes that cooperate with the bolts 10.

[0034] The top plate 2 is provided with several mounting holes 201 for placing individual containers 4;

[0035] Alternatively, a long opening 202 for placing multiple containers 4 may be provided along the length of the top plate 2.

[0036] It also includes a clamping component for container 4. Two expansion plates are symmetrically arranged on the outer edge of the upper end face of container 4, extending beyond the mounting hole 201 or the elongated opening 202, and the width of the expansion plates is smaller than the inner diameter of the mounting hole 201 or the width of the elongated opening 202.

[0037] The clamping component includes two symmetrically arranged pressure plates 5. The top plate 2 is fixedly provided with studs 7 at both ends. The two ends of the pressure plates 5 are sleeved on the studs 7 and fixed by nuts.
