Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of livestock breeding technology, and more specifically, to an automatic feeder for livestock breeding. Background Technology
[0002] A livestock feed transfer pusher is a practical tool used in animal husbandry for handling and feeding feed, mainly used to push feed from the storage area to the feeding trough or feeding area. This tool can improve feed feeding efficiency, reduce manual labor intensity, and maintain feed hygiene. An existing livestock feed transfer pusher with publication number CN204453526U includes a handle and a pusher box body. The pusher box body consists of a rear plate, side plates, and a bottom plate. The side plates are located on both sides of the bottom plate, and the rear plate is located between the side plates. The rear plate has 2-6 forklift insertion holes, and 2-5 handles are provided above the forklift insertion holes. The handles are inverted U-shaped. The side plates are triangular or right-angled trapezoidal, with a thickness of 3-8 mm. The rear plate has a thickness of 5-12 mm, and the bottom plate has a thickness of 6-15 mm.
[0003] However, in the above solution, the rubber scraper will wear down after long-term use. There will be gaps between the worn rubber scraper and the ground, which will cause the feed to leak out from the gaps when pushing the scraper and remain on the ground. This requires manual pushing again, which increases the workload. Utility Model Content
[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic feeder for livestock farming, which can effectively solve the problem in the background technology that rubber scrapers will wear out after long-term use, and gaps will exist between the worn rubber scrapers and the ground, causing feed to leak out from the gaps and remain on the ground when pushing the scraper, requiring manual pushing again and increasing the workload.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] An automatic feeder for livestock includes two connecting frames, each of which has a through-hole on one side of its opposite surface.
[0007] The two connecting frames are provided with a support structure at their lower ends. A threaded sleeve is rotatably installed at the lower end of the support structure. A threaded post is provided in the internal thread of the threaded sleeve. A positioning plate is fixedly installed at the lower end of the threaded post. A rubber plate is fixedly installed on one side of the positioning plate by bolts.
[0008] A scraper is fixedly installed on one side of the support structure.
[0009] Preferably, the support structure includes a top plate, which is fixedly installed at the lower ends of two connecting frames. The scraper is fixedly installed on one side of the top plate. Several sliding columns are slidably arranged through the lower surface of the top plate. A limit plate is fixedly installed at the upper end of each sliding column. A connecting plate is fixedly installed at the lower end of each sliding column. An elastic element capable of compression and reset is sleeved on the side of each sliding column near the connecting plate. The scraper is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting plate.
[0010] Preferably, the elastic element is a spring.
[0011] Preferably, each of the connecting plates is provided with a telescopic rod on its lower surface, and the moving ends of both telescopic rods are fixedly connected to the positioning plate.
[0012] Preferably, the threaded sleeve body is fixedly installed with two crossbars, and the two crossbars are fixedly installed with a rotating wheel at one end away from each other.
[0013] Preferably, a rubber strip is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the rubber plate, and a sealing groove is formed on the lower surface of the scraper, with the rubber strip interlocking with the sealing groove.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (1) The staff connects the connecting frame with the connecting hole to the automated trolley. Then the staff controls the trolley to push the connecting frame, so that the connecting frame drives the scraper to move, so that the scraper pushes the feed on the ground. Under the elastic force of the compressed spring, the lower end of the rubber plate can be tightly attached to the ground. When the lower end of the rubber plate is worn, under the elastic force of the spring, the sliding column drives the scraper and the rubber plate to move, so that the lower end of the rubber plate can still be tightly attached to the ground, thereby preventing feed leakage.

Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0023] like Figures 1-5 As shown, an automatic feeder for livestock includes two connecting frames 1, and connecting holes 2 are provided through the opposite side surfaces of the two connecting frames 1.
[0024] The two connecting frames 1 are provided with a support structure 3 for support at their lower ends. A threaded sleeve 4 is rotatably installed at the lower end of the support structure 3. A threaded post 5 is provided in the internal thread of the threaded sleeve 4. A positioning plate 6 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the threaded post 5. A rubber plate 7 is fixedly installed on one side of the positioning plate 6 by bolt 601.
[0025] A scraper 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the support structure 3.
[0026] The support structure 3 includes a top plate 301, which is fixedly installed at the lower end of two connecting frames 1. A scraper 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the top plate 301. Several sliding columns 302 are slidably arranged through the lower surface of the top plate 301. A limit plate 303 is fixedly installed at the upper end of each sliding column 302. A connecting plate 304 is fixedly installed at the lower end of each sliding column 302. An elastic element 305 capable of compression and reset is sleeved on the side of each sliding column 302 near the connecting plate 304. The scraper 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting plate 304.
[0027] The elastic element 305 is a spring.
[0028] Telescopic rods 9 are provided on the lower surface of the connecting plate 304, and the moving ends of the two telescopic rods 9 are fixedly connected to the positioning plate 6.
[0029] The staff connects the connecting frame 1 with the connecting hole 2 to the automated trolley to automate the feeding process. Then, the staff controls the trolley to push the connecting frame 1, which causes the connecting frame 1 to move the scraper 8. This causes the scraper 8 to push the feed on the ground. Under the elastic force of the compressed spring, the lower end of the rubber plate 7 can be tightly pressed against the ground. When the lower end of the rubber plate 7 wears down, under the elastic force of the spring, the sliding column 302 drives the scraper 8 and the rubber plate 7 to move, so that the lower end of the rubber plate 7 can still be tightly pressed against the ground, thereby preventing feed leakage.
[0030] By setting bolt 601, it is convenient for staff to quickly disassemble the rubber plate 7 and replace the rubber plate 7 that is excessively worn. After the rubber plate 7 is installed, the staff can rotate the threaded sleeve 4 so that the rubber plate 7 can move along the direction of the telescopic rod 9, thereby making the rubber plate 7 fit with the scraper plate 8 to prevent feed leakage.
[0031] In another embodiment of this utility model, the threaded sleeve 4 has two crossbars 10 fixedly installed on its body, and the two crossbars 10 are fixedly installed with a rotating wheel 11 at one end away from each other.
[0032] By setting the rotating wheel 11, it is convenient for the staff to rotate the threaded sleeve 4.
[0033] In another embodiment of the present invention, a rubber strip 12 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the rubber plate 7, and a sealing groove 13 is provided on the lower surface of the scraper plate 8, with the rubber strip 12 and the sealing groove 13 interlocking.
[0034] By interlocking the rubber strip 12 with the scraper 8, the sealing surface between the rubber plate 7 and the scraper 8 is increased, thereby enhancing the sealing effect.
[0035] The working principle of this automatic livestock feeder:
[0036] In use, the operator connects the connecting frame 1 with the connecting hole 2 to the automated trolley. Then, the operator controls the trolley to push the connecting frame 1, which causes the connecting frame 1 to move the scraper 8. This causes the scraper 8 to push the feed on the ground. Under the elastic force of the compressed spring, the lower end of the rubber plate 7 can be tightly attached to the ground. When the lower end of the rubber plate 7 wears down, under the elastic force of the spring, the sliding column 302 drives the scraper 8 and the rubber plate 7 to move, so that the lower end of the rubber plate 7 can still be tightly attached to the ground, thereby preventing feed leakage.
[0037] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to exhaustively list all the implementation methods here. Any obvious variations or modifications derived from the technical solutions of this utility model are still within the protection scope of this utility model.
