Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of broiler farming, and in particular to a water supply device for broiler farming. Background Technology

[0002] Chickens need to be fed and watered by farmers during the breeding process. In order to reduce the workload of farmers, people usually use a chicken breeding water supply device disclosed in utility model patent CN221011481U and an automatic chicken breeding water supply device disclosed in utility model patent CN219019931U to supply water to chickens.

[0003] However, in broiler farming, since most broilers are raised in cages and the water troughs are long and narrow, existing water supply devices are not suitable for replenishing water to these long and narrow water troughs. Furthermore, because the water troughs are open, chicken feed, chicken droppings, and other impurities can easily fall into them, polluting the water. Broilers drinking contaminated water for a long time can easily affect their health, resulting in poor practicality. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a water supply device for broiler farming to improve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a water supply device for broiler farming that uses a moving mechanism to adjust the position of the water supply mechanism, enabling the cleaning mechanism to clean impurities and sewage in the drinking trough. During the cleaning process, clean water is discharged into the drinking trough through the water supply mechanism, thus completing the water addition during the cleaning process and improving the practicality of the equipment.
