Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of livestock farming equipment, and in particular to a bidirectional fixed feed trough bracket. Background Technology

[0002] The benefits and advantages of stacked cage systems for poultry farming (such as chicken or duck farming) can be summarized in four aspects: resource utilization, management efficiency, farming safety, and environmental protection. The multi-layered, three-dimensional structure efficiently utilizes space, saving land resources; it supports automated operations such as feeding and manure removal, reducing labor costs and improving management efficiency; it restricts the movement of poultry to reduce pathogen contact and the risk of disease transmission; and it facilitates centralized collection and treatment of manure, reducing environmental pollution and helping to transform farming models towards high efficiency, safety, and environmental protection.

[0003] There is a feeding trough for stacked cage rearing equipment, which has a U-shaped longitudinal cross-section. In actual installation, the feeding trough has fixing holes, and the corresponding frame of the stacked cage rearing equipment has threaded holes that match the fixing holes. The feeding trough is fixedly connected to the frame by bolts that engage with the threaded holes on the frame through the fixing holes.

[0004] In practical applications, feeding troughs are used to hold feed. After food is put into the trough, the trough containing feed will deform under the action of gravity. Therefore, support rods are needed to support the trough. That is, several support rods are evenly distributed along the installation direction of the frame, and the support rods abut against the bottom surface of the trough to support the trough and overcome the deformation problem. However, because the overall length of the trough is relatively long, it is usually made of thin sheet metal, which makes it impossible for the trough to be completely horizontal. As a result, some support rods cannot abut against the bottom surface of the trough, which will produce abnormal noise during the feeding of poultry and livestock. It is also inconvenient to disassemble and assemble the trough along the frame. There is room for improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a two-way fixed feeding trough bracket in order to improve the convenience and stability of the feeding trough when it is installed on the frame.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides a bidirectional fixed feeding trough bracket using the following technical solution:

[0007] A bidirectional fixed feeding trough bracket includes a support plate. At least one snap-fit ​​block is provided on the side wall of the support plate along the height direction. The snap-fit ​​block is snap-fitted into the frame body. The support plate has a support area adapted to the outline of the feeding trough. The end of the support area that abuts against the feeding trough is provided with several bends. Two adjacent bends do not contact each other.

[0008] Preferably, the bent portion is integrally formed with the support plate.

[0009] Preferably, the frame has a waist-shaped groove, the length of which is greater than the length of the snap-fit ​​block.

[0010] Preferably, a locking position is formed between the locking block and the support plate, and the width of the locking position and the thickness tolerance of the frame are in a transition fit.

[0011] Preferably, the support plate has a through hole along its thickness direction, and a connecting shaft passes through the through hole.

[0012] Preferably, the end of the support plate away from the snap-fit ​​block has a fixing part.

[0013] Preferably, a magnetic absorbing piece is provided on the bent portion, and the magnetic absorbing piece magnetically engages with the feeding trough.

[0014] Preferably, a limiting groove is provided on the bent portion, and the magnetic absorbing piece is disposed in the limiting groove.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a bidirectional fixed feeding trough bracket, which has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. By engaging with the frame through snap-fit ​​blocks, the support plate can be quickly assembled and disassembled along the frame. After connecting the support plate to the frame, the trough can be placed on the support plate again. At the same time, through the cooperation of several bends, when the trough and the support plate fail to abut against each other, a force can be applied to the bends to drive them to deform, thereby using the bends to contact and support the trough, which plays a positive guiding role in improving the stability of the fit between the trough and the support plate.

[0017] 2. The support plate has through holes, and several support plates can be simultaneously movably connected to the connecting shaft. After several support plates are connected to the movable shaft, the distance between two adjacent support plates can be adjusted to quickly fix several support plates to the frame through locking. The operation is simple and easy to assemble.

[0018] 3. Because the support plate has a pre-set fixing part, the feeding trough can be fixed in a secondary way, which further improves the stability of the feeding trough when it is placed on the frame. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0024] This application discloses a bidirectional fixed feeding trough bracket. (Refer to...) Figure 1 A bidirectional fixed feeding trough bracket includes a support plate 1. At least one snap-fit ​​block 2 is provided on the side wall of the support plate 1 along the height direction. The snap-fit ​​block 2 is snap-fitted with the frame body. The support plate 1 has a support area 3 that is adapted to the outline of the feeding trough. The end of the support area 3 that abuts against the feeding trough is provided with several bends 4. Two adjacent bends 4 do not contact each other.

[0025] Specifically, the number of locking blocks 2 can be increased according to design requirements or the size of the support plate 1. In this embodiment, preferably, two locking blocks 2 are provided, arranged in the same direction along the side wall of the support plate 1. Both locking blocks 2 are integrally formed with the support plate 1, and a clearance gap 11 is formed between the two locking blocks 2 to avoid interference between two adjacent locking blocks 2 when they are locked with the frame. By locking the frame with two locking blocks 2 simultaneously, the stability of the fit between the support plate 1 and the frame is improved.

[0026] Furthermore, since the shapes of the two snap-fit ​​blocks 2 and their matching methods with the frame are the same, the following will describe in detail the matching method of one of the snap-fit ​​blocks 2 with the frame. Specifically, a locking position 5 is formed between the snap-fit ​​block 2 and the support plate 1. The width of the locking position 5 is in a transitional fit with the thickness tolerance of the frame. The outer contour of the snap-fit ​​block 2 is L-shaped. There is a gap between the end of the snap-fit ​​block 2 away from the support plate 1 and the side wall of the support plate 1, thus forming the locking position 5. In practical applications, assembly can be completed simply by using the locking position 5 between the snap-fit ​​block 2 and the support plate 1 to snap it into the frame. When it is necessary to remove the support plate 1 along the frame, only a vertical upward force needs to be applied to the support plate 1 along the frame to release the locking position 5 from the frame. The operation is simple.

[0027] Correspondingly, the frame is provided with waist-shaped grooves. The length of the waist-shaped grooves is greater than the length of the snap-fit ​​block 2. There are two sets of waist-shaped grooves, and the two sets of waist-shaped grooves are set in the same direction along the height direction.

[0028] First, it should be noted that in this embodiment, the waist-shaped groove on the frame is the existing waist-shaped groove on the frame of the stacked cage breeding equipment, and no separate processing is required. That is, the two snap-fit ​​blocks 2 on the support plate 1 can be snapped into the waist-shaped groove one by one.

[0029] In other embodiments, if the frame does not have a waist-shaped groove, the waist-shaped groove needs to be processed again so that both snap-fit ​​blocks 2 can be snapped into the frame through the waist-shaped groove.

[0030] Furthermore, since the two waist-shaped grooves have the same function and size, one of them will be described in detail below. Because the length of the waist-shaped groove is greater than the length of the locking block 2, during actual installation, the locking block 2 can be quickly inserted into the waist-shaped groove. After the locking block 2 is in the waist-shaped groove, it is driven to move downwards vertically until the frame and the locking block 2 are engaged through the locking position 5.

[0031] Because the width of the locking position 5 and the thickness of the frame are in a transitional fit, it helps to improve the stability of the locking block 2 when it is locked to the frame through the locking position 5, and reduces the probability of shaking when the support plate 1 is connected to the frame.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The support plate 1 has through holes 6 along its thickness direction, and a connecting shaft 7 passes through the through holes 6.

[0033] Among them, the through hole 6 is located on the support plate 1 at the snap-fit ​​block 2. Because the stacked cage equipment needs to raise more poultry at the same time, the length of the frame needs to be increased. Correspondingly, after the frame is lengthened, the length of the feed trough also increases. As the length of the feed trough increases, the overall rigidity of the feed trough will decrease. Therefore, it is necessary to evenly distribute several support plates 1 along the length of the frame to achieve the purpose of supporting the feed trough in sections.

[0034] Therefore, by making through holes 6 on the support plates 1 that need to be snapped onto the frame, and inserting connecting shafts 7 into the through holes 6, in the actual assembly process, several support plates 1 that match the number of waist-shaped slots on the frame are first connected to the connecting shafts 7 through the through holes 6. By adjusting the spacing between two adjacent support plates 1, the spacing between two adjacent support plates 1 is made equal to the spacing between two adjacent waist-shaped slots on the frame. Several support plates 1 can be quickly snapped onto the frame through the waist-shaped slots, making the operation simple.

[0035] Meanwhile, since the stacked cage feeding equipment can feed poultry and livestock on both sides of the width of the frame, the support plates 1 located on both sides of the frame along the width direction are centrally symmetrical about the center line of the frame length direction. Therefore, the support plates 1 do not need to be redesigned, so that the support plates 1 can be adapted to the bidirectional installation of the frame at the same time, and the adaptability is high.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 or Figure 2 The bending part 4 is integrally formed with the support plate 1, so there is no need to install the bending part 4 on the support plate 1 again. There are four bending parts 4, which are arranged at intervals along the support area 3 of the support plate 1. Since the four bending parts 4 have the same function, one of the bending parts 4 will be described in detail below.

[0037] Specifically, the bent portion 4 is formed by bending the support plate 1 along the side wall facing the trough. When the trough is placed on the support plate 1, the bent portion 4 increases the contact area between the support area 3 of the support plate 1 and the trough. Furthermore, because the bent portion 4 is formed by bending the support plate 1, a reinforcing rib is formed at the connection between the bent portion 4 and the support plate 1 to enhance the support capacity of the support plate 1. This reduces the probability of deformation of the support plate 1 due to insufficient rigidity caused by excessive weight.

[0038] Furthermore, after the feed trough is placed on the support area 3, it is supported by the bending part 4. However, in actual application, due to the long length of the feed trough, it will also deform during production or transportation, causing part of the bending part 4 on the support plate 1 to fail to abut against the bottom surface of the feed trough. Therefore, when the bending part 4 fails to abut against the bottom surface of the feed trough, it is only necessary to apply force to the bending part 4 to drive the bending part 4 to deform along the connection with the support plate 1, thereby adjusting the angle between the bending part 4 and the support plate 1, so that the bending part 4 can abut against the bottom surface of the feed trough. This effectively solves the problem of abnormal noise when the feed trough is subjected to vibration force during livestock feeding or when other mechanical equipment in the stacked cage system is working.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 The support plate 1 has a fixing part 8 at the end away from the snap-fit ​​block 2. The fixing part 8 is adapted to the outline of the feeding trough. The feeding trough is positioned for secondary positioning by the fixing part 8 so that the feeding trough can be quickly placed on the support plate 1. At the same time, the fixing part 8 has a pin hole 12. The pin hole 12 is aligned with the fixing hole position on the feeding trough. When the feeding trough is placed on the support plate 1, the pin hole 12 is aligned with the fixing hole position. If the feeding trough needs to be fixed for a second time, the pin can be quickly inserted into the pin hole 12 and the fixing hole position. The operation is simple and the stability is high.

[0040] Reference Figure 3In another embodiment, a magnetic piece 9 is provided on the bent portion 4, and the magnetic piece 9 magnetically engages with the feeding trough.

[0041] Specifically, each support plate 1 is individually equipped with a magnetic clasp 9. The magnetic clasp 9 is used to position the feeding trough, so it is not necessary to set a magnetic clasp 9 on each bend 4. Correspondingly, a magnetic object (such as an iron sheet) that can magnetically engage with the magnetic clasp 9 is installed on the surface of the feeding trough facing the magnetic clasp 9. When the feeding trough is placed on the support plate 1, the magnetic clasp 9 and the magnetic object on the feeding trough magnetically engage with each other, which helps to improve the stability of the feeding trough and the support plate 1, without the need for other mechanical structures to fix the feeding trough to the support plate 1.

[0042] Correspondingly, a limiting groove 10 is provided on the bent portion 4, and the magnetic absorbing piece 9 is disposed in the limiting groove 10. The limiting groove 10 is formed by the bending portion 4 facing the surface of the food tank along the thickness direction, so that after the magnetic absorbing piece 9 is installed on the bent portion 4, the magnetic absorbing piece 9 can be flush with the surface of the bent portion 4.

[0043] The implementation principle of a bidirectional fixed feeding trough bracket in this application embodiment is as follows: When it is necessary to connect the feeding trough to the frame, the locking position 5 formed between the locking block 2 and the support plate 1 is locked with the waist-shaped groove on the frame, thereby realizing that several support plates 1 can be stably connected to the frame. Then, the feeding trough is supported by several support plates 1. When a part of the feeding trough cannot abut against the bending part 4, a force is applied to the bending part 4, thereby deforming the bending part 4 until the bending part 4 abuts against the surface of the feeding trough facing the support area 3, which plays a positive guiding role in improving the convenience and stability of the feeding trough when it is installed on the frame.

[0044] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
