Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of domestic pig breeding technology, specifically a precision feeding device for pigs. Background Technology
[0002] Pigs are omnivorous mammals, docile, adaptable, and rapidly reproducing, making them a major source of meat for humans. With the development of animal husbandry, pig farming has gradually shifted from scattered household farming to large-scale farming. During the feeding process, feed intake is the main factor limiting the growth and slaughter rate of pigs. Only by maintaining a reasonable feed intake can an ideal slaughter rate be achieved. Pigs are generally divided into three stages during the breeding process: small pig stage (20-60kg), medium pig stage (60-90kg), and large pig stage (90kg-slaughter). Feed control is needed for pigs at different stages to improve economic efficiency and avoid uneven feed distribution, which can lead to some pigs not getting enough feed while others waste feed due to excessive feed. Therefore, we propose a precision feeding device for pigs. Utility Model Content

[0017] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the metering device 1 includes a material bucket 11 and a dispensing box 12; the dispensing box 12 extends vertically, with the top of the dispensing box 12 serving as an inlet 121 and the bottom as an outlet 122. A circular chamber 123 is provided in the middle of the dispensing box 12, and a feeding paddle 13 is installed inside the circular chamber 123, with the feeding paddle 13 having a clearance fit with the inner wall of the circular chamber 123; the feeding paddle 13 is provided with a rotating shaft 14, and both ends of the rotating shaft 14 are inlaid with bearings. The feed paddle 13 is embedded in the inner side of the circular chamber 123, and one end of the rotating shaft 14 extends out from the circular chamber 123; the feed paddle 13 is provided with four blades, which are arranged in an "X" shape when viewed from the side and form four included angles, wherein the included angles that are symmetrical to each other are the same, and the included angles that are adjacent are different. The specific degree of the included angles can be designed or replaced according to the requirements, and the paddles are divided into two symmetrically distributed first component regions 131 and two symmetrically distributed second component regions 132.
[0018] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the extension of the rotating shaft 14 is connected to the first stepper motor 4; the first stepper motor 4 is installed on the outside of the component box 12; the outside of the component box 12 is also provided with a storage battery 5 and a PLC control module 6; the first stepper motor 4 is electrically connected to the storage battery 5 and the PLC control module 6 respectively through wires.
[0019] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, two sets of pulleys 7 are symmetrically arranged at the four corners of the bottom of the component box 12. The two sets of pulleys 7 are slidably connected to the slide rail 2, and two pulleys are symmetrically arranged in each set. A connecting shaft 8 is provided between the two pulleys 7. A second stepper motor 9 is provided in the middle of the connecting shaft 8. The second stepper motor 9 is connected to the connecting shaft 8 and is used to drive the connecting shaft 8.
[0020] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the partition unit 3 is provided with a high-pressure flushing pipeline 10; the high-pressure flushing pipeline 10 is provided with several branches corresponding to the small pig feeder 34, the medium pig feeder 35 and the large pig feeder 36.
[0021] As a further preferred embodiment of this utility model, the small pig trough 34, the medium pig trough 35 and the large pig trough 36 are all provided with detachable baffles 38 for drainage.
[0022] As a specific embodiment of this utility model: the distribution order is set as follows: small pig feeder 34 → medium pig feeder 35 → large pig feeder 36 → small pig feeder 34 → ... and so on. The distribution amount is: the amount in the first component area 131 is the small pig feeder 34, the amount in the second component area 132 is the medium pig feeder 35, and the amount in the first component area 131 + the amount in the second component area 132 is the large pig feeder 36.
[0023] First, initialize the angle of the feeding paddle 13 so that the first component area 131 faces upward and one of the corresponding paddle blades is in contact with the edge of the feed inlet 121. Each time the rotation stops, one paddle blade is in contact with the edge of the feed inlet 121. When the feeding paddle rotates and feeds, it cooperates with the circular chamber 123 to determine the amount of feed delivered to the discharge port 122. Then, feed is poured into the feed hopper 11. Due to the torque of the first stepper motor 4, the feeding paddle 13 will remain relatively fixed. The feeding paddle 13 and the circular chamber 123 are in clearance fit. Most of the feed will not flow out of the discharge port 122 while the feeding paddle 13 remains fixed. Connect the PLC control module 6 with a smart device. The battery 5 supplies power to the first stepper motor 4 and the second stepper motor 9. The second stepper motor 9 drives the connecting shaft 8 to move the pulley 7 along the slide rail 2, so that the metering device 1 reaches above the designated partition unit 3, such as above the first guide channel 31. The PLC control module 6 is located above the first guide channel 31. It controls the first step motor 4 to drive the rotating shaft 14 to rotate by a preset angle, so that the quantitative feed of the first portion area 131 of the feeding paddle 13 is discharged into the first guide channel 31 through the discharge port 122, and then the feed is guided into the small pig feed trough 34 through the first guide channel 31 to complete the first distribution. Then, control the second stepper motor 9 to drive the connecting shaft 8 to move the pulley 7 along the slide rail 2, so that the metering device 1 reaches the top of the second guide channel 32. Since the previous discharge was the first component area 131, the amount discharged this time is the second component area 13. Control the first stepper motor 4 to drive the rotating shaft 14 to rotate by a preset angle, so that the quantitative feed of the second component area 132 of the feeding paddle 13 is discharged into the second guide channel 32 through the discharge port 122, and then the feed is guided into the medium-sized pig feed trough 35 through the second guide channel 32 to complete the second distribution. Then, the second stepper motor 9 is controlled to drive the connecting shaft 8 to move the pulley 7 along the slide rail 2, so that the metering device 1 reaches the top of the third guide trough 3. Since the previous discharge was the second component area 132, the amount discharged this time is the first component area 131. Then the second component area 132 is followed to obtain the total amount of the first component area 131 + the second component area 132. The first stepper motor 4 is controlled to drive the rotating shaft 14 to rotate at a preset angle, so that the quantitative feed of the first component area 131 + the second component area 132 of the feeding paddle 13 is discharged into the third guide trough 32 through the discharge port 122. Then, the feed is guided into the large pig feed trough 36 through the third guide trough 32 to complete the third distribution. Following this pattern, the second stepper motor 9 is then controlled to drive the connecting shaft 8 to move the pulley 7 along the slide rail 2 to the first guide channel 31 of the next partition unit 3 for cyclic quantitative material distribution.
[0024] After the feed is divided, since the first guide channel 31 and the second guide channel 32 have the same flow direction, and the third guide channel 33 has the opposite flow direction to the first guide channel 31 and the second guide channel 32, the area is divided into small, medium and large pig feeding areas along the center line of the partition unit 3. The medium and large pigs are first driven to their corresponding feeding areas. Because the small pig trough 34, the medium pig trough 35 and the large pig trough 36 are equipped with baffles on both sides, one trough corresponds to one pig to avoid fighting for food. Since the medium pigs are larger than the small pigs, the medium pigs cannot eat the feed in the small pig trough 34 due to the height limit bar 37. After the medium pigs have all found their corresponding medium pig trough 35, the small pigs are driven to their corresponding areas to eat. This can effectively prevent the small pigs from eating the feed in the medium pig trough 35, and the small pigs will find their corresponding small pig trough 34.
[0025] After all the pigs have finished eating, connect the water source and use the branch pipes of the high-pressure flushing pipe 10 to clean each feeding trough. Discharge the wastewater through the removable baffle (38) to reduce odor and bacterial fermentation.
[0026] As needed, the above-mentioned installation, setting, or connection methods include, but are not limited to, screws, riveting, welding or sleeve, fixing, etc. The installation, setting, or connection method shall be selected according to the working scenario.
[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
