Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a bird feeder, and more particularly to a multifunctional bird feeder. Background Technology

[0002] In the current technology, bird feeders used in outdoor areas generally adopt a dense mesh cylindrical structure. After the bird food is poured in, a feeding window is opened at the bottom of the cylinder for the birds to peck at. This type of bird feeder has the following shortcomings:

[0003] Bird food is always exposed to the elements, making it easily susceptible to erosion by rainwater and spoilage.

[0004] Bird feeders are easily chewed up by small animals such as squirrels, causing damage.

[0005] The product has limited functionality and cannot meet the needs of multiple applications. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the problems of existing technologies, this utility model provides a multifunctional bird feeder that not only automatically supplies bird food but also keeps the bird food dry, allowing for long-term storage, and is suitable for various usage scenarios.

[0007] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A multifunctional bird feeder includes a transparent food tube with a mesh cover on the outside. A top ring is fixed to the upper end of the transparent food tube, and a food distributor is connected to the bottom. A feeding window is provided on the mesh cover outside the food distributor. A central rod elastic mechanism is connected to the center of the top ring. The upper end of the central rod elastic mechanism passes through the top cover and is connected to a hook nut. A stainless steel hanging rope is connected above the hook nut. The mesh cover is connected to the bottom of the top cover, and a foldable food tray is embedded in the bottom of the mesh cover.

[0009] The central rod elastic mechanism includes a lower tube connected to the top ring, an upper tube that is slidably inserted into the top of the lower tube, the upper tube being fixed to the center of the top cover, a plug at the bottom end of the lower tube, a central rod inserted through the plug, the lower tube, and the upper tube, a central rod spring outside the central rod, a nut at the lower end of the central rod, and the central rod spring located between the nut and the top end of the upper tube. The central rod elastic mechanism enables relative movement between the transparent food tube and the mesh outer cover.

[0010] The folding food dish includes a dish body with feet hinged around its perimeter. An upward protrusion is provided above the center of the dish body to distribute bird food from the transparent food tube above it to the surrounding areas. A funnel-shaped food bowl is provided at the bottom of the dish body.

[0011] The bottom of the bowl has a drainage hole.

[0012] The outside of the plate is provided with an elastic locking part, which is used to lock the foldable food plate into the lower end of the mesh cover.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the technical solution provided by this utility model are:

[0014] 1. The structure combines an inner transparent food tube and an outer mesh cover, which allows the bird food to be stored in the transparent food tube. The bird's weight causes the entire mesh cover to move down, so that the bird food in the transparent food tube is exposed from the bottom of the transparent food tube onto the folding food dish, making it easy for the bird to eat from the feeding window.

[0015] Once the bird flies away, the netted cover, no longer supported by the bird's gravity, springs back under the action of the central rod's elastic mechanism, causing the transparent food tube to move downwards. Its lower end is blocked by the folded food dish, preventing the bird food from falling further.

[0016] 2. The multifunctional bird feeder of this utility model can be used in two modes: hanging and ground-insertion. It can be hung in a high place outdoors using the stainless steel hanging rope connected above the hook nut, or the folding food tray can be removed and inserted upside down on the ground for use, and the bird food can be placed in the food bowl.

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example

[0021] As attached Figure 1As shown in Figure 2, a multifunctional bird feeder of this embodiment includes a transparent food tube 1, a mesh cover 2 on the outside of the transparent food tube 1, a top ring 3 fixed at the upper end of the transparent food tube 1, and a food diverter 4 connected to the bottom. A feeding window 5 is provided on the mesh cover 2 on the outside of the food diverter 4. A central rod elastic mechanism is connected to the center of the top ring 3. The upper end of the central rod elastic mechanism passes through the top cover 6 and is connected to a hook nut 7. A stainless steel hanging rope 8 is connected above the hook nut 7. The mesh cover 2 is connected below the top cover 6. A foldable food tray is embedded in the bottom of the mesh cover 2.

[0022] The central rod elastic mechanism of this embodiment includes a lower tube 9 connected to the top ring 3, an upper tube 10 inserted and slidably mounted on the top of the lower tube 9, the upper tube 10 being fixed to the center of the top cover 6, a plug 11 at the bottom of the lower tube 9, a central rod 12 inserted into the plug 11, the lower tube 9 and the upper tube 10, a central rod spring 13 on the outside of the central rod 12, a nut 14 at the lower end of the central rod 12, and the central rod spring 13 located between the nut 14 and the top of the upper tube 10. The central rod elastic mechanism enables relative movement between the transparent food tube 1 and the mesh outer cover 2.

[0023] The folding food dish of this embodiment includes a dish body 15, with feet 16 hinged around its perimeter. An upward-facing protrusion 17 is located above the center of the dish body 15 to distribute the bird food from the transparent food tube 1 above it to the surrounding areas. A flared feeding bowl 18 is located at the bottom of the dish body 15, with a drainage hole 19 at its bottom. An elastic locking part 20 is provided on the outside of the dish body 15 to secure the folding food dish to the lower end of the mesh cover 2.

[0024] Open the top cover 6 to pour the birdseed into the transparent food tube 1. After hanging it up, fold down the perch 16 to let the bird land. Once the bird lands on the perch, the entire folding food dish and mesh cover move downwards. At this time, the lower end of the transparent food tube 1 disengages from the folding food dish, allowing the birdseed to fall and making it easier for the bird to eat at the feeding window.

[0025] Once the bird flies away, the netted cover, no longer supported by the bird's gravity, springs back under the action of the central rod's elastic mechanism, causing the transparent food tube to move downwards. Its lower end is blocked by the folded food dish, preventing the bird food from falling further.

[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
