[0029] 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.
[0030] Reference Figures 1-5 An embodiment of this utility model is provided: a lamb feeding trough, including a storage box 1, a camera 15 and a controller 16. A vertical plate 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage box 1. A detachable component is connected inside the vertical plate 3. A monitoring component is connected to the outside of the storage box 1.
[0031] The detachable component includes a receiving cavity 20, with an insert plate 6 fixedly connected to the side of the receiving cavity 20. The insert plate 6 has a slot 7, with two sets of slots 7 symmetrically arranged. The upright plate 3 has an installation slot 4 and a square slot 5, with multiple sets of both the installation slot 4 and the square slot 5. The insert plate 6 slides in the installation slot 4. The upright plate 3 has a fixed plate 8 fixedly connected to the side, with a circular slot 11 inside the fixed plate 8. A slide rod 9 is slidably connected in the circular slot 11. One end of the slide rod 9 is fixedly connected to a locking block 13, which is slidably connected in the square slot 5 and the slot 7. A spring 10 is fixedly connected between the locking block 13 and the fixed plate 8 for easy positioning.
[0032] The monitoring components include a connecting plate 14, which is fixedly connected to the side of the storage box 1. A camera 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 14 by bolts. A controller 16 is fixedly connected to the side of the storage box 1. The bottom of the storage box 1 has a discharge port 21, which has multiple sets. An electric telescopic rod 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage box 1. A baffle 19 is fixedly connected to one end of the electric telescopic rod 18. There are multiple sets of electric telescopic rods 18. The camera 15 and the electric telescopic rod 18 are electrically connected to the controller 16. A protective plate 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the storage box 1, which has multiple sets. An inclined plate 22 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage box 1. A top cover 2 is connected to the top of the storage box 1. Support legs 17 are fixedly connected to both sides of the storage box 1. A pull plate 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the slide rod 9 away from the locking block 13. A spring 10 is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod 9. The locking block 13 is set in a right-angled triangle for easy unidirectional limiting.
[0033] Working principle: In the lamb feeding trough, pulling the pull plate 12 outward causes the slide rod 9 to slide in the circular groove 11, causing the locking block 13 to slide out of the locking groove 7, compressing the spring 10. This facilitates disassembly, cleaning, or replacement of the receiving cavity 20 after damage, making it more convenient and flexible. During installation, the insert plate 6 is slid into a set of installation grooves 4 at the required height. The insert plate 6 and the locking block 13 are slidably connected. Compressing the locking block 13 causes it to slide in the square groove 5, compressing the spring 10. When the locking groove 7 is flush with the locking block 13, the spring 10 causes the locking block 13 to return to its original position, thus allowing it to slide. The slot 7 is fixed with a plate 6 to fix the position of the receiving cavity 20 and adjust the installation height of the receiving cavity 20 to facilitate feeding lambs of different sizes. The camera 15 can monitor the remaining feed in the receiving cavity 20. When it is detected that the feed in the receiving cavity 20 is insufficient, a signal is sent to the controller 16. The controller 16 controls the corresponding set of electric telescopic rods 18 to move the corresponding baffle 19. The baffle 19 slides at the bottom of the discharge port 21 so that the feed in the corresponding discharge port 21 can be discharged in time to replenish the corresponding receiving cavity 20, which is more convenient.
[0034] All electrical components mentioned in this article are electrically connected to an external main controller and 220V AC mains power. The main controller can be a conventional known device such as a computer for control. The detailed description of known functions and known components is omitted in the specific embodiments disclosed herein. To ensure the compatibility of the device, the operating methods used are consistent with the parameters of commercially available instruments.
[0035] This solution only applies to the use of existing cameras, controllers, and electric telescopic poles on the market. The structural technology of cameras, controllers, and electric telescopic poles is already very mature and has been widely used. The technology of cameras, controllers, and electric telescopic poles is common knowledge in the field and will not be described in detail here. At the same time, this application does not protect the specific structure of cameras, controllers, and electric telescopic poles. Those skilled in the art can select cameras, controllers, and electric telescopic poles based on practical experience and usage requirements.
