[0002] In the daily operation of livestock farms, providing clean and convenient drinking water is a crucial aspect of ensuring livestock health and improving farming efficiency. However, existing drinking water systems in many farms have numerous drawbacks and fail to meet the needs of modern farming practices.
[0003] On the one hand, fixed-height drinking devices cannot meet the drinking needs of livestock at different growth stages and of different sizes. For example, young animals are small, and fixed-height drinking devices may be too high, making it difficult for them to drink; while adult animals are larger, and if the drinking device is too low, it can easily cause water pollution and make it difficult for them to maintain a comfortable drinking posture. On the other hand, existing adjustable-height drinking devices are complex in structure and cumbersome in adjustment, requiring manual operation, which not only consumes a lot of time and manpower, but also makes it difficult to guarantee adjustment accuracy. Therefore, a new type of suspended adjustable-height drinking device for livestock farms is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a novel hanging adjustable drinking water device for livestock farms, which has the advantages of convenient and flexible height adjustment and solves the problems mentioned in the background technology.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] The adjustment assembly includes a motor fixedly connected to the right side of the support frame. The output shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to a transmission rod. A transmission gear is fixedly connected to the left end of the transmission rod. A driven gear meshes with the bottom of the transmission gear. A threaded rod is fixedly connected to the inner side of the center of the driven gear. A threaded block is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod. A connecting block is fixedly connected to the left side of the threaded block. A mounting plate is fixedly connected to the left side of the connecting block.
[0008] Furthermore, a multi-head pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate, and the multi-head pipe is divided into one inlet head and four outlet heads. The inlet head is fixedly connected to an inlet hose, and each of the four outlet heads is fixedly connected to an outlet valve.
[0009] Furthermore, five partitions are fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate, and a drinking water holder is fixedly connected between the bottoms of four of the partitions.
[0010] Furthermore, the top of the drinking stand has four drinking troughs, and the drinking troughs are located between opposite sides of two adjacent partitions.
[0011] Furthermore, the water outlet valve is located between the opposite sides of two adjacent partitions, and the position of the water outlet valve corresponds vertically to the position of the corresponding drinking water tank.
[0012] Furthermore, guide openings are provided on both the left and right sides inside the mounting plate, and support plates are slidably connected to the inner sides of both guide openings.

[0021] 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.
[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This embodiment of a novel drinking water device for aquaculture farms with adjustable height includes a support frame 1, and an adjustment component for adjusting the height is provided on the right side of the support frame 1.
[0023] Please see Figure 1 In this embodiment, the adjustment component includes a motor 2 fixedly connected to the right side of the support frame 1. The output shaft of the motor 2 is fixedly connected to a transmission rod 3. The left end of the transmission rod 3 is fixedly connected to a transmission gear 4. The bottom of the transmission gear 4 is meshed with a driven gear 5. A threaded rod 6 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the center of the driven gear 5. A threaded block 7 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 6. A connecting block 8 is fixedly connected to the left side of the threaded block 7. A mounting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the left side of the connecting block 8.
[0024] Specifically, a multi-head pipe 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate 9. The multi-head pipe 10 is divided into one inlet head and four outlet heads. The inlet head is fixedly connected to an inlet hose 11, and each of the four outlet heads is fixedly connected to an outlet valve 12. Five partitions 13 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 9. A drinking seat 14 is fixedly connected between the bottoms of the four partitions 13. The top of the drinking seat 14 has four drinking troughs, and the drinking troughs are located between opposite sides of two adjacent partitions 13. The outlet valve 12 is located between opposite sides of two adjacent partitions 13, and the outlet valve 12 is vertically aligned with the position of the corresponding drinking trough.
[0025] It should be noted that the multi-head pipe 10 adopts a design with one inlet and four outlets, which can meet the simultaneous drinking needs of multiple livestock in a farm. The inlet hose 11 connects to the inlet, allowing for flexible introduction of water into the multi-head pipe 10, facilitating installation and adjustment according to the farm layout and water supply system. The four outlet valves 12 control the water output of the four outlets respectively, enabling precise water management by controlling the water supply to different drinking troughs according to actual needs.
[0026] Specifically, guide openings are provided on both the left and right sides inside the mounting plate 9, and support plates 15 are slidably connected to the inner sides of both guide openings.
[0027] It should be noted that guide openings are provided on the left and right sides inside the mounting plate 9, and the support plate 15 is slidably connected to it. The support plate 15 serves to guide and stabilize the device. When the mounting plate 9 moves up and down with the threaded block 7 to adjust its height, the support plate 15 slides within the guide openings, ensuring that the mounting plate 9 does not shift during movement. This ensures the stability of the entire drinking device, allowing components such as the drinking seat 14 and the water outlet valve 12 to align accurately, thus ensuring that livestock can drink water normally.
[0028] Specifically, a motor cover 16 is fixedly connected to the right side of the support frame 1, and the motor 2 is located inside the motor cover 16.
[0029] It should be noted that in the environment of a farm, there are dust, debris and livestock collisions. The motor cover 16 can prevent dust and debris from entering the motor 2, and at the same time, it can also prevent the motor 2 from being damaged by external impacts, thus extending the service life of the motor 2.
[0030] Specifically, the left side of the inner side of the support frame 1 has an upper and lower sliding opening that is adapted to the connecting block 8.
[0031] It should be noted that an upper and lower sliding opening is provided on the inner left side of the support frame 1 to match the connecting block 8, providing space for the upper and lower movement of the connecting block 8.
[0032] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0033] When the height of the water dispenser needs to be adjusted, motor 2 is started, and the output shaft of motor 2 begins to rotate. The output shaft of motor 2 drives the transmission rod 3 to rotate. Since the left end of the transmission rod 3 is fixedly connected to the transmission gear 4, the transmission rod 3 drives the transmission gear 4 to rotate together. The bottom of the transmission gear 4 is meshed with the driven gear 5. When the transmission gear 4 rotates, it drives the driven gear 5 to rotate. The inner side of the center of the driven gear 5 is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 6, so the driven gear 5 drives the threaded rod 6 to rotate. The outer side of the threaded rod 6 is threadedly connected to the threaded block 7. When the threaded rod 6 rotates, according to the principle of threaded transmission, the threaded block 7 will move up and down on the outer side of the threaded rod 6. A connecting block 8 is fixedly connected to the left side of the threaded block 7. When the threaded block 7 moves up and down, it will drive the connecting block 8 to move up and down together. A mounting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the left side of the connecting block 8. Therefore, the connecting block 8 drives the mounting plate 9 to move up and down. As the mounting plate 9 moves up and down, the multi-head pipe 10, water outlet valve 12, partition 13, and drinking seat 14 installed on the mounting plate 9 will also move up and down, thereby realizing the adjustment of the height of the entire drinking device. When the appropriate height is adjusted, the motor 2 is turned off. The water source is connected to the water inlet of the multi-head pipe 10 through the water inlet hose 11. After entering the multi-head pipe 10, the corresponding water outlet valve 12 is opened as needed to allow the water to flow into the drinking trough for drinking.
[0034] The installation, connection, or setting methods disclosed in this embodiment are all common mechanical connection methods, and any method that can achieve its beneficial effects can be implemented.
