Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to an insulated livestock drinking trough device for calf breeding, belonging to the field of livestock drinking trough technology. Background Technology

[0002] Due to the characteristics of dairy cow gestation cycles and modern ranch management, calf births generally occur in winter. To improve calf survival rates and provide a more suitable drinking environment, a heated water trough is needed. This trough uses heating rods within a hot water tank to raise the water temperature. For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN115119762A discloses a non-electrically heated and insulated livestock water trough that uses a heat-conducting plate to gradually dissipate heat into the water it covers, thus ensuring that the water temperature inside the trough remains constant when livestock are drinking. Within acceptable temperature range; however, the insulation effect of this structure is generally poor. For example, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN217470978U discloses an energy-saving and heat-insulating livestock water trough, including a top cover with a sliding groove at the bottom. The sliding groove is movably connected to a slider, which is located at the top of the trough. The trough includes an inner shell, a heating layer, a first insulation layer, a second insulation layer, and an outer shell. Compared to the original water trough, it can effectively regulate temperature. Due to the presence of the first and second insulation layers, it can effectively retain heat compared to the original water trough; however, this structure cannot control the water level. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes an insulated livestock drinking trough device for calf farming, which can automatically and precisely control the water level and temperature, meeting the drinking water requirements of calves in winter while also providing water storage and insulation.

[0004] This utility model discloses an insulated livestock drinking trough device for calf farming, comprising:

[0005] The main body of the calf watering trough has an integrally formed independent compartment on the inner side. The inner side of the independent compartment is formed into a water level compartment and a pipeline compartment by a partition. The top of the independent compartment has an integrally formed protrusion that protrudes from the top surface of the calf watering trough. The bottom of the water level compartment is provided with a through hole that communicates with the interior of the calf watering trough.

[0006] The water tank cover is located outside the protrusion, with one end of the water tank cover hinged to one side of the protrusion; the other end of the water tank cover has an operating hole; a lock is provided on the inside of the operating hole and the inside of the protrusion; the water tank cover is opened and closed by using a lock that is concealed in the operating hole. When it needs to be opened, the lock is opened through the operating hole, which can effectively prevent damage to the water supply system caused by livestock accidentally opening the water tank cover;

[0007] A calf water trough cover, wherein the calf water trough cover is fixed to the top surface of the calf water trough body, and the calf water trough cover has multiple drinking ports stamped at intervals; the inner side of the calf water trough cover has an enlarged diameter section integrally formed at the drinking ports;

[0008] A drinking water float is movably embedded inside the enlarged diameter section, which prevents the drinking water float from detaching from its mounting position.

[0009] When dairy cows drink water, they only need to lick open the drinking float to drink hot water. After drinking, the drinking float automatically returns to its original position, which not only meets the dairy cows' drinking water needs, but also has the effect of heat preservation and energy saving.

[0010] A water level control system includes a float valve fixed to the top of the inner side of the water level chamber, with the float of the float valve movably disposed inside the water level chamber and the outlet of the float valve disposed inside the water level chamber; the inlet of the float valve is connected to a water supply pipe, which is led out from the pipeline chamber.

[0011] Livestock drinking water enters the float valve through the supply pipe and continuously fills the water level tank through the float valve until the set water level is reached. At this point, the float is pushed up, which automatically closes the float valve. When the water level drops to the lower limit, the float falls and the float valve reopens. The water level tank is connected to the main body of the calf drinking trough through a through hole, so that the water level in the water level tank and the main body of the calf drinking trough are at the same level.

[0012] A water temperature control system includes a temperature transmitter fixed inside the main body of the calf water trough and a heating plate fixed inside the water level tank or the main body of the calf water trough. The heating plate and the temperature transmitter are linked by a controller. The temperature transmitter collects the water temperature inside the main body of the calf water trough. After the controller obtains the water temperature, it compares the collected water temperature with the set water temperature, thereby controlling the heating plate to respond to the temperature. That is, the controller heats the livestock drinking water according to the user-set parameters and the water temperature in the trough, and automatically stops when the temperature is reached.

[0013] Furthermore, a flange is fixed to the bottom of the calf water trough body, and a heat-conducting cover is sealed and fixed to the top surface of the flange. The heating plate is fixed inside the heat-conducting cover, and the heating plate is installed on the back of the heat-conducting cover. It is formed in one piece using a brazing process, which can not only improve heating efficiency and heat conduction speed, but also achieve the function of separating electricity and water, greatly improving the safety performance of the equipment.

[0014] Furthermore, a drain outlet is provided at the bottom of the calf water trough body, and a drain valve is installed at the drain outlet. When it is necessary to clean the inside of the calf water trough body, the cleaning water inside the calf water trough body can be drained out through the drain valve.

[0015] Furthermore, the main body of the calf water trough has a sandwich structure. The main body of the calf water trough is made of PE material by rotational molding. The sandwich of the calf water trough is filled with polyurethane foam filler. That is, the main body of the calf water trough is made of imported food-grade PE material by rotational molding and filled with polyurethane foam filler, which can achieve good heat preservation performance. The secondary feeding process in the rotational molding production can increase the adhesion between polyethylene and polyurethane materials and avoid the problem of delamination between the foam and the outer shell.

[0016] Furthermore, the main body of the calf water trough is a square pier structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. This structure can ensure the stable support of the main body of the calf water trough and prevent the main body of the calf water trough from tipping over during the calf drinking water process.

[0017] Furthermore, an inspection door is provided on the side of the pipeline compartment.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, the insulated livestock drinking trough equipment for calf farming of this utility model can automatically and accurately control the water level and water temperature. The drinking water heating structure adopts a heat-conducting cover and heating plate brazed into one piece, which can not only improve heating efficiency and heat conduction speed, but also achieve the function of electric and water separation, greatly improving the safety performance of the equipment. It can meet the drinking water requirements of calves in winter, and the drinking water inlet is mechanically sealed by a drinking water float. The entire interior of the calf drinking trough is filled with polyurethane foam filler, which can prevent the loss of hot water heat inside the calf drinking trough and achieve the effect of water storage and heat preservation.
