[0024] The specific implementation method of a poultry feeding device with automatic feeding function of this utility model is as follows: Figures 1 to 3 Please provide a detailed explanation. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the base 1 serves as the basic support for the entire device. A storage bin 2 is fixedly installed on its top. A drive module 3 is located on the right side surface of the storage bin 2. The drive module 3 is connected to the distribution plate 4 via an internal transmission mechanism. The distribution plate 4 is located below the storage bin 2 and is connected to the guide pipe 5. The end of the guide pipe 5 extends to a position where the poultry can access the feed. A support frame 6 is fixedly connected to the left side surface of the base 1. A slide rail groove 7 is provided on its inner side. A slider 8 is installed in the slide rail groove 7. One end of the slider 8 is fixedly connected to a feeding channel 13. The other end of the feeding channel 13 extends to the bottom of the distribution plate 4. A limiting plate 9 is fixedly installed at both ends of the slide rail groove 7 to limit the movement range of the slider 8.
[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, several distributing blades are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the distributing disc 4. The number and shape of the distributing blades 10 are designed according to actual needs to ensure that the feed can be evenly distributed. A distributing cylinder 11 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the distributing disc 4. Multiple distributing ports 12 are opened on the outer surface of the distributing cylinder 11. The size of the distributing ports 12 can be adjusted by the adjustment component. A diversion plate is set inside the distributing cylinder 11. The diversion plate is connected to the control gear through the distributing rack. The control gear is connected to the output end of the drive module 3 through the linkage rod. The top edge of the distributing disc 4 is connected to the distributing disc cover through the elastic pressure strip. The function of the distributing disc cover is to prevent the feed from overflowing during the distributing process. At the same time, the design of the elastic pressure strip enables it to open and close automatically according to the operating status of the distributing disc 4.
[0026] The drive module 3 includes an eccentric wheel assembly, which is connected to the output end of the drive module 3 via a rotating shaft. One end of the rotating shaft extends to the outer surface of the drive module 3 and is fixedly connected to a feed distribution disc 4. A sliding track is formed on the bottom surface of the feed distribution disc 4, and a limiter is installed within the sliding track. The limiter is connected to the inner wall of the sliding track via an elastic connector. The function of the limiter is to restrict the range of motion of the feed distribution disc 4 and ensure its stability during operation. The feed distribution disc 4 also includes a rotating connecting rod. One end of the rotating connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the feed distribution disc 4, and the other end is connected to the support frame 6 via a sliding sleeve. The design of the rotating connecting rod allows the feed distribution disc 4 to swing freely within a certain range, thereby improving the flexibility of feed distribution.
[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the slider 8 is connected to the inner wall of the slide rail groove 7 through a spring-loaded component. One end of the slider 8 is fixedly connected to the feeding channel 13, and the other end of the feeding channel 13 extends to the bottom of the distribution plate 4. The design of the slide rail groove 7 allows the feeding channel 13 to move freely within a certain range to adapt to the feeding needs of different specifications of feed. Limiting plates 9 are fixedly installed at both ends of the slide rail groove 7. The limiting plates 9 are connected to the inner wall of the slide rail groove 7 through an elastic return component. The function of the limiting plates 9 is to limit the movement range of the slider 8 and prevent it from exceeding the predetermined position due to inertia, thus affecting the normal operation of the device.
[0028] An adjustment assembly is fixedly installed at the bottom of the storage bin 2. This assembly consists of an adjusting screw, a balance spring, and a sliding latch. One end of the adjusting screw passes through the bottom of the storage bin 2 and is connected to the sliding latch, which is connected to the inner wall of the storage bin 2 via the balance spring. The function of the adjustment assembly is to automatically adjust the height of the distribution tray 4 according to the amount of feed in the storage bin 2, thereby avoiding uneven distribution due to too much or too little feed. A buffer pad made of flexible material is fixedly installed on the inner wall surface of the feed guide pipe 5 to reduce the impact force on the feed during transport and prevent blockage due to excessive impact. An auxiliary bracket is fixedly connected to the top surface of the support frame 6. A movable baffle is installed inside the auxiliary bracket, connected to the auxiliary bracket via a positioning post. The movable baffle automatically adjusts its angle according to the direction of feed delivery, ensuring that the feed accurately falls into the target area.
[0029] In actual operation, feed flows from the storage bin 2 into the distribution plate 4. After the drive module 3 is started, it drives the rotating shaft to rotate through the eccentric wheel assembly. The rotation of the rotating shaft causes the distribution plate 4 to start operating. The distribution blades 10 on the distribution plate 4 evenly distribute the feed into the distribution cylinder 11. The diverting plate in the distribution cylinder 11 adjusts its angle according to the rotation of the control gear to further optimize the feed distribution effect. The feed enters the guide pipe 5 through the distribution port 12. The buffer pad in the guide pipe 5 reduces the impact force of the feed during the conveying process, ensuring that the feed can be smoothly delivered to the poultry feeding position. The slider 8 moves in the slide rail groove 7, and the feeding channel 13 adjusts its position accordingly to adapt to different feed feeding needs. The limiting plate 9 and the elastic return component work together to ensure that the movement range of the slider 8 is limited, thereby ensuring the stability of the device. The adjustment component automatically adjusts the height of the distribution plate 4 according to the amount of feed in the storage bin 2 to ensure the uniformity of feed distribution. The movable baffle automatically adjusts its angle according to the feed feeding direction to ensure that the feed can fall accurately into the target area.
[0030] The above embodiments demonstrate the specific structure and operating principle of this utility model. The mechanical transmission design simplifies the equipment structure, reducing manufacturing costs and ease of use. The design of the adjustment components and slide rails allows the device to automatically adjust operating parameters according to actual needs, thereby improving applicability and stability. The application of buffer pads and elastic connectors effectively reduces the impact force and blockage risk during feed conveying, further enhancing the reliability of the device.
[0031] To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand and implement this utility model, the following supplementary explanation of the specific implementation principle of this utility model is provided in conjunction with a specific application scenario.
[0032] First, the feed storage bin 2 must be filled before starting the device. Feed storage bin 2 stores feed and has an adjustment mechanism at its bottom, consisting of an adjusting screw, a balance spring, and a sliding latch. One end of the adjusting screw passes through the bottom of the feed storage bin 2 and connects to the sliding latch, which is connected to the inner wall of the feed storage bin 2 via the balance spring. When the amount of feed in the feed storage bin 2 changes, the sliding latch moves under the action of the balance spring, thereby adjusting the height of the distribution tray 4 and ensuring that the feed remains uniform as it flows from the feed storage bin 2 into the distribution tray 4. This design effectively avoids uneven distribution caused by too much or too little feed.
[0033] Secondly, after the drive module 3 is started, the eccentric wheel assembly drives the distribution disc 4 to start rotating via the rotating shaft. Several distribution blades 10 are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the distribution disc 4, which evenly disperse the feed into the distribution cylinder 11. The distribution cylinder 11 has a flow divider plate inside, which is connected to a regulating gear via a distribution rack. The regulating gear is connected to the output end of the drive module 3 via a linkage rod. As the regulating gear rotates, the distribution rack moves up and down, changing the angle of the flow divider plate, thereby further optimizing the feed distribution effect. Multiple distribution ports 12 are opened on the outer surface of the distribution cylinder 11. The size of the distribution ports 12 can be adjusted by an adjustment component to accommodate different feed sizes. This step achieves uniform feed dispersion through mechanical transmission, avoiding the complexity and high cost issues associated with traditional electronic control systems.
[0034] Next, the feed enters the feed guide pipe 5 through the feed inlet 12. A buffer pad is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the feed guide pipe 5. The buffer pad is made of flexible material, which effectively reduces the impact force on the feed during transport and lowers the risk of blockage. The end of the feed guide pipe 5 extends to a position accessible to the poultry, ensuring that the feed is smoothly transported to the target area. An auxiliary bracket is fixedly connected to the top surface of the support frame 6. The auxiliary bracket has a movable baffle inside, which is connected to the auxiliary bracket via a positioning post. The movable baffle automatically adjusts its angle according to the direction of feed delivery, ensuring that the feed falls accurately into the target area. This design improves the accuracy of feed delivery and avoids feed waste.
[0035] Subsequently, slider 8 moves within slide rail groove 7, and feeding channel 13 adjusts its position accordingly to adapt to different feed feeding needs. Slider 8 is connected to the inner wall of slide rail groove 7 via a spring-loaded component. The design of slide rail groove 7 allows feeding channel 13 to move freely within a certain range, thereby meeting the feeding needs of different feed sizes. Limiting plates 9 are fixedly installed at both ends of slide rail groove 7, and the limiting plates 9 are connected to the inner wall of slide rail groove 7 via elastic return components. The function of limiting plates 9 is to restrict the movement range of slider 8, preventing it from exceeding the predetermined position due to inertia and affecting the normal operation of the device. This function ensures the stability and reliability of the device.
[0036] Finally, a sliding track is provided on the bottom surface of the distribution plate 4, and a limiting component is installed within the sliding track. The limiting component is connected to the inner wall of the sliding track via an elastic connector. The function of the limiting component is to restrict the range of motion of the distribution plate 4, ensuring its stability during operation. In addition, the distribution plate 4 also includes a rotating connecting rod. One end of the rotating connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the distribution plate 4, and the other end is connected to the support frame 6 via a sliding sleeve. The design of the rotating connecting rod allows the distribution plate 4 to swing freely within a certain range, thereby improving the flexibility of feed distribution. This structural design allows the device to flexibly adjust the feed delivery position according to actual needs, further enhancing its applicability.
[0037] Through the above steps, the device of this utility model achieves uniform distribution and flexible feed delivery. The mechanical transmission design simplifies the equipment structure, reduces manufacturing costs and ease of use; the design of the adjusting components and slide rails allows the device to automatically adjust operating parameters according to actual needs, improving applicability and stability; the application of buffer pads and elastic connectors effectively reduces the impact force and blockage risk of feed during transportation, further enhancing the reliability of the device. The above content demonstrates the specific application scenarios and operating principles of this utility model, providing clear operational guidance for those skilled in the art.
[0038] 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 and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
