Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of multi-layer cage automatic feeding and residual feed recycling system, specifically to a multi-layer cage automatic feeding and residual feed recycling system for laying hen farming. Background Technology

[0002] Egg-laying hen farming refers to the artificial raising of flocks of chickens specifically for egg production, with the core objective of increasing egg production and quality. Unlike broiler farming, common egg-laying hen farming methods mostly employ a tiered cage system, equipped with a suitable automatic feeding system for each multi-layered cage. This system uses automated equipment to evenly distribute feed to each layer of the cage, ensuring that each chicken receives a measured amount of feed.

[0003] During the design process of this utility model, the following problems were found in the existing technology: After automatic feeding of laying hens, due to the differences between individual laying hens, a lot of residual feed often remains in the feeding trough. However, common automatic feeding systems are often not convenient for recycling the residual feed, which causes new feed to cover the residual feed again when feeding next time, resulting in the residual feed deteriorating and causing pollution of the feeding trough, which cannot well meet the needs of laying hen farming. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic feeding and residual feed recycling system for multi-layer cages in egg-laying hen farming, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the common automatic feeding systems for egg-laying hen farming are often not convenient for recycling residual feed, which leads to new feed covering the residual feed during the next feeding, causing the residual feed to deteriorate and contaminating the feeding trough, thus affecting egg-laying hen farming.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic feeding and residual feed recycling system for multi-layer cages used in laying hen farming, comprising a feeding rack, a quantitative component installed on one side of the inner wall of the feeding rack, a feed inlet installed inside the feeding rack, a feed bin located below the feed inlet, a recycling bin located on the bottom inner wall of the feeding rack, and casters installed at the four corners of the bottom of the feeding rack.

[0006] The quantitative component includes a drive motor, which is mounted on one side of the inner wall of the feeding rack. The bottom of the drive motor is connected to a drive shaft, and a drive gear is mounted on the outside of the drive shaft.

[0007] A metering bin is installed at the bottom of the feeding bin. A metering shaft is rotatably connected inside the metering bin. A metering partition is installed outside the metering shaft. A metering gear is installed at one end of the metering shaft.

[0008] A discharge port extends through the bottom of one side of the feeding bin. A feeding plate is inserted into the back of the feeding bin. A piston rod is installed at one end of the feeding plate, and the piston rod is driven to one end of a hydraulic cylinder.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting a retractable feeding plate in the feeding bin of the multi-layer feeding rack, the stable feeding of feed in the feeding bin is ensured. When the feeding is completed and the residual feed needs to be recycled, the feeding plate is retracted, so that the residual feed in the feeding bin slides down to the discharge port through the bottom inclined structure and falls into the recycling bin below the discharge port for centralized collection. This avoids the residual feed from accumulating in the feeding bin and causing deterioration, improves the recycling effect of residual feed, and thus better meets the needs of laying hen farming.

[0010] To achieve quantitative feeding of feed:

[0011] The following configuration is further provided: the metering chamber is a cylindrical structure with through grooves on both the top and bottom, and the top of the metering chamber is connected to the discharge end at the bottom of the feeding chamber. Six metering partitions are installed in a ring around the outside of the metering shaft, and the included angle between any two adjacent metering partitions is the same. The metering partitions and the inner wall of the metering chamber form a sliding connection structure. The maximum distance between one end of any two adjacent metering partitions is the same as the width of the through groove.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the quantitative partition and the quantitative rotating shaft are set as hexagonal cross-section structures. Combined with the cylindrical quantitative bin, when the quantitative rotating shaft rotates, the feed enters the groove between two adjacent quantitative partitions, thereby ensuring the quantitative feeding. At the same time, with the rotation of the quantitative partition, the feed between the top partitions can rotate to the bottom through groove for discharge, thus realizing quantitative feeding of feed, facilitating continuous operation, and improving the automation effect of feeding laying hens.

[0013] To achieve the recycling of excess waste materials:

[0014] The feed bin is further configured such that the bottom of the feed bin is inclined, the feed plate is located above the discharge port, and the feed plate is connected to the back of the feed bin and the inner wall of the feed bin to form a close connection structure. The hydraulic cylinder is installed on the back of the feed rack, and the lower end of the discharge port is located directly above the recovery bin.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the bottom of the feeding bin is set as an inclined structure, so that excess residual material inside can slide through the inclined bottom to the bottom of the discharge port and fall into the recycling bin below for recycling. At the same time, the feeding bin has a retractable feeding plate that can be inserted to ensure that the feed inside is supported when feeding, so as to prevent feed leakage during feeding and improve the use efficiency of the feeding bin.

[0016] To better meet the feeding needs of laying hens in multi-layer cages:

[0017] The feeding rack is further configured such that: multiple U-shaped brackets with openings facing the front are spliced ​​together vertically and fixed at the connection with bolts; and each U-shaped bracket has an inlet bin and a feed bin installed inside; and a power supply box and a controller mounting slot are respectively installed on the top of one side of the outer wall of the feeding rack.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple sets of feeding bins and feed hoppers are set in the feeding rack to feed the laying hens in the corresponding cages. At the same time, the bolt fixing method between the feeding racks also facilitates disassembly and repair when the feeding rack is damaged. In addition, the feeding rack is equipped with casters at the bottom, which makes it easy to move the feeding rack to the corresponding laying hen cage for feeding operations, thereby improving the adaptability of the feeding rack.

[0019] To achieve precise control of feed metering using the metering component:

[0020] The drive motor is further configured as follows: the drive motor is a servo motor, and multiple drive gears are uniformly mounted on the outside of the drive shaft. Both the drive gears and the metering gears are bevel gears, and the multiple drive gears mesh with their corresponding metering gears.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, a servo motor is set to drive multiple drive gears to rotate at a uniform speed. In conjunction with meshing quantitative gears, the amount of feed fed into the quantitative bin is quantified. The single servo motor control method can effectively save costs and improve the quantitative effect of laying hen feed, thereby better meeting the needs of laying hen farming.

[0022] The parts of the device not covered herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. Attached Figure Description

[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 5 The multi-layer cage automatic feeding and residual feed recycling system for laying hen farming includes a feeding rack 1, a quantitative component 2 installed on one side of the inner wall of the feeding rack 1, a feeding bin 3 installed inside the feeding rack 1, a feeding bin 4 located below the feeding bin 3, a recycling bin 5 located on the bottom inner wall of the feeding rack 1, and casters 6 installed at the four corners of the bottom of the feeding rack 1.

[0031] The quantitative component 2 includes a drive motor 201, which is installed on one side of the inner wall of the feeding rack 1. The bottom of the drive motor 201 is connected to a drive shaft 202, and a drive gear 203 is installed on the outside of the drive shaft 202.

[0032] A metering bin 301 is installed at the bottom of the feeding bin 3. A metering shaft 302 is rotatably connected inside the metering bin 301. A metering partition 303 is installed outside the metering shaft 302. A metering gear 304 is installed at one end of the metering shaft 302.

[0033] A discharge port 401 extends through the bottom of one side of the feeding bin 4. A feeding plate 402 is inserted into the back of the feeding bin 4. A piston rod 403 is installed at one end of the feeding plate 402. The piston rod 403 is driven to one end of the hydraulic cylinder 404.

[0034] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the metering bin 301 is a cylindrical structure with through grooves on both the top and bottom. The top of the metering bin 301 is connected to the discharge end at the bottom of the feed bin 3. Six metering partitions 303 are installed in a ring around the outside of the metering shaft 302. The included angle between any two adjacent metering partitions 303 is the same. The metering partitions 303 and the inner wall of the metering bin 301 form a sliding connection structure. The maximum distance between one end of any two adjacent metering partitions 303 is the same as the width of the through groove.

[0035] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the feeding bin 4 is set as an inclined structure, and the feeding insert plate 402 is located above the discharge port 401. The feeding insert plate 402 forms a close connection structure with the inner wall of the feeding bin 4 by inserting into the back of the feeding bin 4. The hydraulic cylinder 404 is installed on the back of the feeding frame 1, and the lower end of the discharge port 401 is located directly above the recovery bin 5.

[0036] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the feeding rack 1 is composed of multiple U-shaped brackets with openings facing the front, which are spliced ​​together vertically and fixed at the connection with bolts. Each U-shaped bracket has a feeding bin 3 and a feeding bin 4 installed inside. A power supply box 101 and a controller mounting slot 102 are respectively installed on the top of one side of the outer wall of the feeding rack 1.

[0037] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the drive motor 201 is a servo motor, and multiple drive gears 203 are evenly mounted on the outside of the drive shaft 202. Both the drive gears 203 and the metering gears 304 are bevel gears, and the multiple drive gears 203 mesh with the corresponding metering gears 304.

[0038] The working process of this multi-layer cage automatic feeding and waste feed recycling system for laying hens is as follows:

[0039] First, the feed to be fed is loaded into the multiple feed bins 3 in the feed rack 1 in sequence. After feeding is completed, the feed rack 1 is moved to the corresponding multi-layer cage rack of laying hens by the moving wheels 6 at the bottom of the feed rack 1, so that the top end of the feed bin 4 in the feed rack 1 is in contact with the bottom of the feed opening of the cage rack.

[0040] Then, the drive motor 201 (model: MS1-R) is started to drive the drive shaft 202 to rotate, which drives the multiple drive gears 203 on the drive shaft 202 to mesh with the metering gear 304, and drives the metering rotating shaft 302 connected to the metering gear 304 to rotate in the metering bin 301 below the feed bin 3. The six grooves formed by the six metering partitions 303 on the metering rotating shaft 302 sequentially meter feed from the feed bin 3 to the metering bin 301, and discharges it from the through groove at the bottom of the metering bin 301 to the feeding bin 4 below for feeding operation.

[0041] Then, after feeding is completed, the external hydraulic oil pump starts to inject hydraulic oil into the hydraulic cylinder 404 (model: HSGK01-100), causing the piston rod 403 to extend and drive the feeding plate 402 to be pulled out from the feeding bin 4, so that the residual material in the feeding bin 4 falls into the bottom inner wall of the feeding bin 4, slides through the inclined inner wall to the discharge port 401, and falls from the lowest end of the discharge port 401 into the recycling bin 5 below for recycling.

[0042] Finally, after the entire feeding operation is completed, the operator pushes the feeding rack 1 to the initial position and takes out the recycling bin 5 to recycle the remaining material inside.
