Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of poultry farming and feeding technology, specifically to a poultry farming feeder. Background Technology

[0002] In poultry farming, feeding management is a core aspect affecting poultry growth rate, egg production rate, and health status. In particular, for intensive poultry farming, the demand for feed is large, and manual feeding will lead to reduced feeding efficiency.

[0003] To improve feeding efficiency, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN202123338214.4 discloses a fully automatic feed dispenser for poultry farming, comprising a base, a storage chamber, a feed dispensing mechanism, and a feed trough. The feed dispensing mechanism includes a feed rack, a feed pipe assembly, a feed rod assembly, a motor mounting box, a servo motor assembly, and a vision sensor assembly. In use, a feeding bell is played through the speaker, attracting poultry with conditioned reflexes to the fully automatic feed dispenser. The sensors in the vision sensor assembly detect whether poultry are approaching the feed pipe assembly to feed. If the vision sensor detects poultry approaching, the servo motor in the servo motor assembly rotates the corresponding feed rod to deliver feed, causing the feed to fall into the corresponding feed trough, thus achieving automatic feed dispensing.

[0004] However, the feeding mechanism of this fully automatic feed dispenser for poultry farming is horizontally set. During the feeding process, the feed is prone to accumulate in the feeding pipe and deteriorates due to long-term contact with the outside air. In addition, the feeding mechanism cannot smoothly discharge the remaining feed in the storage chamber, resulting in poor performance. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, a poultry feeder is provided. By incorporating a feed-blocking disc, a mixing frame, and a sealing block that rotate integrally with the mixing rod, synchronous feeding is achieved as the mixing rod rotates. Furthermore, in conjunction with a heating hood, the feed is dried and dehydrated, effectively preventing moisture residue from remaining inside the outer shell and affecting feed storage.

[0006] To address the problems of existing technologies, this utility model provides a poultry feeder that is suspended inside the poultry house, comprising:

[0007] outer shell;

[0008] The stirring shaft is vertically positioned inside the outer casing and is coaxially arranged with the outer casing. Several material blocking discs are fixed at the lower end of the stirring shaft.

[0009] The receiving tray is installed in a ring shape on the lower side of the outer casing and has an open top. A pushing mechanism is provided inside the receiving tray.

[0010] The heating cover is installed in a ring shape on the outside of the outer shell and is coaxial with the stirring shaft;

[0011] The outer shell contains a storage compartment with a material distribution tray at the bottom. The bottom of the storage compartment has several discharge ports, the top of the storage compartment has a material inlet, and the upper side of the outer shell has an exhaust port that communicates with the storage compartment.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the stirring shaft extends downward through the storage bin to the top of the bulk material tray, the upper surface of the blockage tray is closely attached to the discharge port, and the bottom of the blockage tray is provided with a V-shaped support frame.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the support frame is in contact with the surface of the bulk material tray.

[0014] Preferably, the number of discharge ports, blocking plates, and support frames are the same.

[0015] Preferably, the storage compartment is provided with several stirring racks arranged in a ring outside the stirring shaft. The stirring racks include a horizontal stirring part connected to the stirring shaft and a vertical stirring part in contact with the inner wall of the outer shell.

[0016] Preferably, a sealing block that is tightly attached to the connection between the exhaust port and the storage chamber is fixedly installed on the top of the vertical stirring section, and the sealing block is arc-shaped.

[0017] Preferably, the receiving tray is provided with a push ring plate, and the bottom of the push ring plate is connected to the receiving tray by a return spring. The push ring plate and the return spring constitute the pushing mechanism.

[0018] Preferably, the outer surface of the bulk material tray is an inclined surface that slopes downwards.

[0019] The advantages of this utility model compared to the prior art are:

[0020] 1. By setting a blocking disc connected to the mixing shaft, the mixing shaft rotates and drives the blocking disc to open the discharge port, and the mixing frame mixes and clears the feed. When the mixing shaft stops, it drives the blocking disc and the sealing block to seal the discharge port and the vent hole respectively, effectively preventing the feed from being in contact with the outside air for a long time, which is conducive to the long-term storage of the feed.

[0021] 2. By setting up a heating cover, the feed is heated during the feeding process, ensuring the palatability of the feed. The feed in the storage bin is also heated and dried. The dried gas is discharged from the exhaust port, further enhancing the safety of feed storage. Attached Figure Description

[0029] To further understand the features, technical means, and specific objectives and functions achieved by this utility model, the following detailed description of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0030] See Figure 1-6 As shown, a poultry feeder, suspended inside a poultry house, includes:

[0031] The outer shell 1 has a storage compartment 1a inside, and a material distribution tray 1b is provided at the bottom of the storage compartment 1a. The bottom of the storage compartment 1a has several discharge ports, and the top of the storage compartment 1a has a material inlet. The upper side of the outer shell 1 has an exhaust hole that communicates with the storage compartment 1a.

[0032] It should be noted that the storage chamber 1a is used to store feed for subsequent feeding, the feed inlet is used to replenish feed into the storage chamber 1a, the feed outlet is used to discharge the feed from the storage chamber 1a, and a drive motor for driving the stirring shaft 2 to rotate is installed on the top of the outer shell 1.

[0033] The stirring shaft 2 is vertically positioned inside the outer shell 1 and is coaxially arranged with the outer shell 1. Several material blocking discs 2a are fixed at the lower end of the stirring shaft 2.

[0034] It should be noted that when the drive motor drives the stirring shaft 2 to rotate through the coupling, the stirring shaft 2 will drive the blocking disc 2a to rotate, opening the discharge port for material discharge. The discharge rate of the poultry feeder can be controlled by adjusting the rotation speed of the stirring shaft 2.

[0035] The receiving tray 3 is installed in a ring shape on the lower side of the outer casing 1 with an open top. The receiving tray 3 is equipped with a pushing mechanism.

[0036] It should be noted that the receiving tray 3 is used to receive feed falling from the discharge port for poultry to eat.

[0037] The heating cover 4 is installed in a ring shape on the outside of the outer shell 1 and is coaxial with the stirring shaft 2.

[0038] It should be noted that the heating hood 4 is used to heat the feed in the storage bin 1a, dry the moisture in the feed, and the high-temperature gas carrying the moisture will be discharged from the exhaust port.

[0039] See Figure 2-4 As shown, the bottom of the stirring shaft 2 extends downward through the storage bin 1a to the top of the bulk material tray 1b, the upper surface of the blockage tray 2a is closely attached to the discharge port, and the bottom of the blockage tray 2a is provided with a "V"-shaped support frame 2a1.

[0040] It should be noted that the downward-extending part of the stirring shaft 2 is used to install the blocking plate 2a and the support frame 2a1. The upper surface of the blocking plate 2a is in close contact with the discharge port to block the discharge port and prevent a large amount of external gas from rushing into the storage bin 1a, causing the feed inside the storage bin 1a to become damp and deteriorate. The V-shaped support frame 2a1 is used to improve the support effect of the blocking plate 2a.

[0041] See Figure 3-5 As shown, the bottom of the support frame 2a1 is in contact with the surface of the bulk material tray 1b.

[0042] It should be noted that the upper surface of the feed tray 1b can provide support for the support frame 2a1, thereby further improving the support effect on the blockage tray 2a and maintaining the sealing effect of the blockage tray 2a. At the same time, the support frame 2a1 can rotate along the upper surface of the feed tray 1b to sweep off the feed remaining on the upper surface and prevent the feed from accumulating on the upper surface of the feed tray 1b.

[0043] The number of discharge ports, blocking discs 2a and support frames 2a1 are the same.

[0044] See Figure 2-4 As shown, the storage compartment 1a is provided with several stirring racks 2b arranged in a ring outside the stirring shaft 2. The stirring rack 2b includes a horizontal stirring part connected to the stirring shaft 2 and a vertical stirring part in contact with the inner wall of the outer casing 1.

[0045] It should be noted that when the stirring shaft 2 drives the blockage plate 2a to rotate, it will simultaneously drive the stirring frame 2b connected to it to rotate. The stirring frame 2b stirs the feed in the storage bin 1a through the horizontal stirring part and the vertical stirring part, so that the feed inside the storage bin 1a is in a flowing state. During the flow, the feed will hit the outer shell 1, causing the outer shell 1 to vibrate, and then smoothly discharge from the outlet to avoid feed blockage.

[0046] See Figure 3 As shown, a sealing block 2b1 is fixedly installed on the top of the vertical stirring section, closely attached to the connection between the exhaust hole and the storage chamber 1a, and the sealing block 2b1 is arc-shaped.

[0047] To improve the sealing effect, when the stirring shaft 2 drives the blocking disc 2a to block the discharge port, the vertical stirring part at the stirring frame 2b will drive the arc-shaped blocking block 2b1 to block the exhaust hole, so that the entire storage bin 1a is in a sealed state, and the feed inside the storage bin 1a is better stored.

[0048] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the receiving tray 3 is provided with a pushing ring plate 3a. The bottom of the pushing ring plate 3a is connected to the receiving tray 3 by a return spring 3a1. The pushing ring plate 3a and the return spring 3a1 constitute the pushing mechanism.

[0049] It should be noted that when a large amount of feed falls into the receiving tray 3, the pushing ring plate 3a will squeeze the return spring 3a1 under the pushing force of the feed's gravity. At this time, the return spring 3a1 is compressed, and the receiving tray 3 can receive a large amount of feed. As the feed in the receiving tray 3 is gradually reduced by the poultry, the return spring 3a1 will drive the pushing ring plate 3a to move upward, thereby driving the feed on the upper side of the pushing ring plate 3a to move upward. This makes it easier for the poultry to access the remaining feed in the receiving tray 3, effectively preventing the feed from settling and clumping at the bottom of the receiving tray 3, and facilitating the subsequent cleaning of the receiving tray 3.

[0050] See Figure 3 As shown, the outer surface of the bulk material tray 1b is an inclined surface that slopes downwards.

[0051] It should be noted that the outer surface of the feed tray 1b is tilted downwards, which can smoothly guide the feed falling from the discharge port into the receiving tray 3.

[0052] The above embodiments only illustrate one or more implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the appended claims.
