Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of livestock machinery and feed processing equipment, specifically to a ruminant feed inlet structure that prevents dust spillage. Background Technology

[0002] In ruminant farming, the feeding process generates a large amount of dust, which not only wastes feed but also pollutes the farming environment, affecting animal health and worker safety. Existing feeding inlets mostly employ an open design, resulting in poor dust prevention. While some enclosed feeding devices can reduce dust spillage, they are complex in structure, expensive, and not conducive to continuous feeding operations. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a simple, reliably sealed, and automatically opening and closing dust-proof feeding inlet to improve feed feeding efficiency and the farm environment. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a ruminant feeding port structure to prevent dust overflow, including a feeding port, a feeding pipe and a sealing cover. The top of the feeding port is provided with a flip-up sealing cover, which is connected to the feeding port by a hinge. The feeding pipe is inclined and its lower end extends into the inside of the feeding port, and its upper end is provided with a feeding hopper. The inner side of the sealing cover is provided with a soft sealing strip.

[0004] Preferably, the inclination angle of the feed pipe is 30° to 60°.

[0005] Preferably, a counterweight is provided on the outside of the sealing cover.

[0006] Preferably, a detachable dustproof net is provided above the feed hopper.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the feeding port is provided with a buffer ramp.

[0008] Preferably, a discharge pipe is connected to the bottom of the feeding port, and the discharge pipe is equipped with an adjustable flow control valve.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the flip-up sealing cover combined with the hinge connection structure realizes automatic opening during feeding and automatic closing after feeding to prevent dust from overflowing. The inclined feed pipe effectively slows down the falling speed of the feed and reduces dust rising. The soft sealing strip on the inner side of the sealing cover enhances the sealing performance and further prevents dust leakage. The combined application of these structures effectively controls dust diffusion without affecting normal feeding operations, achieving multiple effects such as improving the breeding environment, reducing feed waste, and protecting the health of staff.

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0015] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the ruminant feed inlet structure for preventing dust spillage in this embodiment includes a feed inlet 1, a feed pipe 2, and a sealing cover 3. The top of the feed inlet 1 is provided with a flip-up sealing cover 3, which is connected to the feed inlet 1 via a hinge 4. The feed pipe 2 is inclined, with its lower end extending into the interior of the feed inlet 1 and a feed hopper 5 at its upper end. A soft sealing strip 6 is provided on the inner side of the sealing cover 3. When feeding, the feed pushes the sealing cover 3 to open, and after feeding, the sealing cover 3 automatically closes under the action of gravity.

[0016] The inclination angle of feed pipe 2 is 30° to 60° to reduce the impact and dust when the feed falls.

[0017] A counterweight 7 is provided on the outside of the sealing cover 3 to enhance the automatic closing capability of the sealing cover 3.

[0018] A removable dustproof net 8 is provided above the feed hopper 5 for preliminary dust filtration.

[0019] The bottom of the feeding port 1 is equipped with a buffer ramp 9 to slow down the falling speed of the feed and reduce dust generation.

[0020] The bottom of the feeding port 1 is connected to a discharge pipe 10, and the discharge pipe 10 is equipped with an adjustable flow control valve 11.

[0021] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Feed is fed into the feed hopper 5, undergoes primary filtration through the detachable dustproof net 8, and then slides down the feed pipe 2, which is inclined at 30° to 60°. The impact force of the falling feed pushes the flip-up sealing cover 3 to open, and the rear sealing cover 3 automatically closes under the gravity of the counterweight 7, achieving a seal with the soft sealing strip 6 on the inner side of the sealing cover 3. The feed continues to fall to the buffer inclined plate 9 at the bottom of the feeding port 1, and after being buffered and decelerated, it is finally discharged through the discharge pipe 10 with an adjustable flow control valve 11. The entire working process, through the coordinated operation of multiple dustproof structures such as the tilt angle control of the feed pipe 2, the automatic opening and closing of the sealing cover 3, and the deceleration effect of the buffer inclined plate 9, effectively suppresses dust overflow while ensuring smooth feed delivery.

[0022] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations.
