AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing manual feeding method in egg-laying chicken farms is inefficient, labor-intensive, and difficult to achieve uniform feeding, resulting in feed waste or insufficient nutrition, which affects the growth and egg production performance of the hens.

Method used

The system employs a drive mechanism, a storage bin, and a discharge mechanism, combined with a linkage design of a feeding plate and a gear rack, to achieve automated longitudinal feeding. It also monitors the remaining feed level through a material level sensor to ensure precise feed distribution.

Benefits of technology

It significantly improves feeding efficiency and uniformity, reduces feed waste, ensures the growth and egg production performance of laying hens, and realizes an automated and efficient feeding process.

Abstract

This utility model relates to an automatic feeding device for laying hen farming, belonging to the field of laying hen farming technology. It mainly includes a support frame, a feed storage bin, a feeding mechanism, a drive mechanism, and a feed trough. The bottom of the feed storage bin is connected to the feeding mechanism, which uses a feed-distributing plate and a gear and rack transmission to achieve uniform feed distribution. The drive mechanism drives the feed storage bin to move longitudinally, and a feed level sensor monitors the remaining feed in real time, precisely controlling the feeding process. This utility model, through the coordinated use of the drive mechanism, feed storage bin, and feeding mechanism, achieves an automated longitudinal feeding process, reducing human intervention and significantly improving feeding efficiency. Simultaneously, the linkage design of the feed-distributing plate and gear and rack enables uniform feed distribution in multi-stage rearing cages, avoiding insufficient or excessive feeding, effectively reducing feed waste or nutritional deficiencies, and ensuring the growth and egg production performance of the laying hens.
