Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding trough technology, and more specifically, to a convenient feeding trough. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, portable feeding troughs have significant difficulties in actual use when they are turned over. Traditional feeding trough designs usually adopt a fixed structure, which makes it impossible to turn the trough over easily when farmers need to clean, maintain or change its position.

[0003] The bottom plate of the existing feeding trough is usually connected to the trough body by traditional bolts, welding or snap-fit. These methods have obvious shortcomings when quick disassembly is required. Traditional bolt connection requires the use of special tools to loosen the bolts one by one, which is cumbersome. Especially in outdoor breeding environments, the bolts are prone to rust and corrosion, which further increases the difficulty of disassembly.

[0004] Corresponding to the issue of unfastening, existing feeding troughs also present operational difficulties when re-fixing the bottom plate and trough body, with poor positioning accuracy being one of the main problems. Traditional designs lack an effective positioning guidance mechanism, requiring operators to make repeated adjustments to ensure accurate alignment of the bottom plate and trough body, especially in low-light breeding environments where the positioning process becomes even more difficult.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-8 A convenient feeding trough includes a base plate 1, on which a flipping assembly is provided. The flipping assembly includes a support frame 2 and a gear 3. The support frame 2 is fixedly installed on the base plate 1, and the gear 3 is rotatably connected to the support frame 2. A groove 4 is installed on the gear 3. An insertion groove 5 is opened on the support frame 2. The insertion groove 5 is adapted to the gear 3. A fastening seat 6 is installed on the groove 4. A fastening assembly is provided between the groove 4 and the base plate 1. The fastening assembly includes a stabilizing plate 7 and a stabilizing hole 8. The stabilizing plate 7 is installed on the groove 4, and the stabilizing hole 8 is opened on the stabilizing plate 7. A stabilizing sleeve 9 is installed on the base plate 1.

[0034] A placement rod 10 is installed on the fastening seat 6, a fixing sleeve 11 is installed on the groove 4, a rotating rod 12 is rotatably connected to the bottom plate 1, and a toggle block 13 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 12.

[0035] One end of the rotating rod 12 is connected to a rotating handle 14. An insertion rod 15 is slidably connected to the rotating handle 14 and the fixed sleeve 11. A tension spring 16 is connected between the rotating handle 14 and the base plate 1. A filter plate 17 is installed on the trough 4.

[0036] An unlocking sleeve 18 is slidably connected to the stabilizing sleeve 9. An unlocking block 19 is connected to the unlocking sleeve 18. A third spring 20 is connected to one end of the unlocking sleeve 18. A second control sleeve 21 is connected to one end of the third spring 20.

[0037] A control block 22 is slidably connected to the second control sleeve 21. A second spring 23 is connected between the control block 22 and the second control sleeve 21. The control block 22 and the unlocking block 19 are compatible. A control groove 24 is provided on the stabilizing sleeve 9. Multiple control grooves 24 are provided. The control grooves 24 are compatible with the control block 22.

[0038] In this embodiment, the user feeds the animal using the trough 4. After feeding, when the trough 4 needs to be tilted for cleaning, the insertion rod 15 is slid out along the fixing sleeve 11 and the rotating handle 14, and the actuating block 13 is rotated along the rotating rod 12 to release the fixing of the placement rod 10 on the fastening seat 6. Then, the trough 4 is rotated along the support frame 2 to insert the end of the gear 3 into the insertion slot 5, and the unlocking sleeve 18 is slid along the stabilizing sleeve 9. During the sliding movement, the third spring 20 between the second control sleeve 21 and the unlocking sleeve 18 is compressed, causing the unlocking block 19 to move, thereby controlling the... The control block 22 is abutted, causing the control block 22 to slide along the second control sleeve 21, which stretches the second spring 23 between the control block 22 and the second control sleeve 21. Then, the second control sleeve 21 and the unlocking sleeve 18 slide along the stabilizing sleeve 9, so that when the control block 22 is aligned with another control slot 24, the unlocking sleeve 18 is released, and under the elastic potential energy of the third spring 20, the unlocking sleeve 18 and the unlocking block 19 are driven back to their initial positions. At this time, the abutment on the control block 22 is released, and under the action of the elastic potential energy of the second spring 23, the control block 22 is driven to insert into the control slot 24, completing the fixation of the second control sleeve 21.

[0039] Please see Figure 5-8 As a convenient feeding trough implementation of the control component: a control component is provided on the stabilizing sleeve 9. The control component includes a first control sleeve 25 and a first spring 26. The first control sleeve 25 is slidably connected to the stabilizing sleeve 9. The first spring 26 is connected between the first control sleeve 25 and the stabilizing sleeve 9. A flipping block 27 is rotatably connected on the stabilizing sleeve 9.

[0040] A flipping plate 28 is connected to the flipping block 27. The two ends of the flipping plate 28 abut against the first control sleeve 25 and the second control sleeve 21. A stabilizing rod 29 is detachably installed on the stabilizing sleeve 9. A fastening plate 30 is connected to the stabilizing rod 29.

[0041] The stabilizing rod 29 has a flip groove 31, which is adapted to the flip block 27. The diameter of the stabilizing hole 8 is larger than the diameter of the stabilizing rod 29.

[0042] More specifically, after fixing the moved second control sleeve 21, the stabilizing rod 29 is slid out along the stabilizing sleeve 9. During the sliding movement, the flipping block 27 is rotated along the stabilizing sleeve 9 by using the flipping groove 31 on the stabilizing rod 29. During the rotation, the flipping plate 28 on the flipping block 27 presses against the first control sleeve 25, thereby causing the first control sleeve 25 to slide along the stabilizing sleeve 9. During the sliding movement, the first spring 26 between the first control sleeve 25 and the stabilizing sleeve 9 is compressed. Then, the groove 4 is rotated along the support frame 2, so that the stabilizing plate 7 is in close contact with the stabilizing sleeve 9. The above operation is repeated in the opposite direction to insert the stabilizing rod 29 into the stabilizing sleeve 9, thus completing the fixing of the groove 4.

[0043] In summary, during the use or operation of the overall equipment: the user feeds the animal using the trough 4. After feeding, when the trough 4 needs to be tilted for cleaning, the insertion rod 15 is slid out along the fixing sleeve 11 and the rotating handle 14, and the actuating block 13 is rotated along the rotating rod 12 to release the fixing of the placement rod 10 on the fastening seat 6. Then, the trough 4 is rotated along the support frame 2 to insert the end of the gear 3 into the insertion slot 5, and the unlocking sleeve 18 is slid along the stabilizing sleeve 9. During the sliding movement, the third spring 20 between the second control sleeve 21 and the unlocking sleeve 18 is compressed, causing the unlocking block 19 to move, thus... The control block 22 is abutted, causing it to slide along the second control sleeve 21, stretching the second spring 23 between the control block 22 and the second control sleeve 21. Then, the second control sleeve 21 and the unlocking sleeve 18 slide along the stabilizing sleeve 9, so that when the control block 22 is aligned with the other control slot 24, the unlocking sleeve 18 is released, and under the elastic potential energy of the third spring 20, the unlocking sleeve 18 and the unlocking block 19 are driven back to their initial positions. At this time, the abutment on the control block 22 is released, and under the action of the elastic potential energy of the second spring 23, the control block 22 is driven to insert into the control slot 24, completing the fixation of the second control sleeve 21.

[0044] After fixing the moved second control sleeve 21, the stabilizing rod 29 is slid out along the stabilizing sleeve 9. During the sliding movement, the flipping block 27 is rotated along the stabilizing sleeve 9 by using the flipping groove 31 on the stabilizing rod 29. During the rotation, the flipping plate 28 on the flipping block 27 presses against the first control sleeve 25, thereby causing the first control sleeve 25 to slide along the stabilizing sleeve 9. During the sliding movement, the first spring 26 between the first control sleeve 25 and the stabilizing sleeve 9 is compressed. Then, the groove 4 is rotated along the support frame 2 so that the stabilizing plate 7 is in close contact with the stabilizing sleeve 9. The above operation is repeated in the opposite direction to insert the stabilizing rod 29 into the stabilizing sleeve 9, thus completing the fixing of the groove 4.

[0045] Of all the solutions mentioned above, those involving the connection between two components can be selected according to the actual situation, such as welding, bolt and nut connection, bolt or screw connection, or other known connection methods, which will not be elaborated here. For all the fixed connections mentioned above, welding is preferred.
