Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of floor-raised broiler breeding technology, specifically a novel feed tray for floor-raised broiler breeding. Background Technology

[0002] In free-range broiler farming, traditional feeding methods and equipment structures have many shortcomings, especially in terms of feeding efficiency, resource utilization, and flock activity space. These issues directly affect the growth rate, health status, and overall farming efficiency of broilers, thus necessitating the optimization of existing feeding equipment.

[0003] Currently, commonly used traditional material trays on the market generally have the following problems:

[0004] Traditional feed trays are generally small, with each tray covering only a limited feeding area. In large flocks of broilers, numerous feed lines are needed to meet the feeding needs of all birds. To achieve even feed distribution, multiple feed lines are typically installed in the chicken house. This not only increases equipment purchase and installation costs but also complicates the equipment layout within the house, impacting the flock's activity space.

[0005] Because a large number of feeding lines need to be installed, the internal space of the chicken house is occupied by a lot of equipment. This limited space restricts the chickens' movement, potentially leading to insufficient activity and affecting their normal growth and development. Improper equipment installation, or excessive space occupied by equipment, can also result in poor ventilation in the chicken house, further impacting the health of the broilers.

[0006] After the feeding line is started, feed distribution can easily become uneven. Feed may accumulate in some areas, while in others, insufficient feed leads to competition among the chickens for it. This not only reduces the broilers' feeding efficiency but can also affect their growth rate and health, resulting in uneven growth and impacting overall farming efficiency.

[0007] Traditional feeding systems often require frequent start-ups and stops of the feeding line. This not only wastes energy but also leads to feed waste and equipment wear. Furthermore, frequent starts can cause instability in the feeding line's operation, further increasing equipment maintenance costs.

[0008] Due to the numerous shortcomings in the design of traditional feed trays and feeding systems, free-range broiler farming is significantly constrained in terms of efficiency, cost, and resource utilization. Therefore, based on the aforementioned technical problems, it is necessary for those skilled in the art to develop a new type of feed tray for free-range broiler farming. Utility Model Content

[0009] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel feed tray for floor-raised broiler chickens, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0011] A novel feed tray technology for floor-raised broiler chicken farming includes a base and an outer cover;

[0012] The outer cover is placed above the chassis and together with the chassis, forms a feeding space;

[0013] The outer cover is provided with multiple feeding ports;

[0014] The inner edge of the outer cover extends inward to form an inwardly turned edge, which is used to prevent broilers from scraping feed out of the feed tray when they are eating.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution, the outer cover is detachably connected to the chassis by a buckle at its bottom.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution, the outer cover is provided with a number of feeding dividing strips, which divide the feeding area on the outer cover into multiple independent feeding positions.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution, it also includes a movable cone and an outer cover fixing sleeve. The outer cover fixing sleeve is installed at the bottom of the outer cover, and the movable cone is located above the center of the chassis to guide and disperse the feed falling from the feeding line.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution, a U-shaped guide block is provided on the outer side of the movable cone, and multiple sets of locking strips are provided on the outer cover fixing sleeve along the vertical direction, with the locking strips located inside the U-shaped guide block. A locking block is provided on the movable cone, and the locking block is connected to the locking strip, so that the movable cone can move up and down within a certain range to adapt to the material feeding amount.

[0019] As a preferred technical solution, the top of the outer cover is provided with a fixed shell and a movable shell for fixing the position of the outer cover.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] This utility model relates to a novel feed tray for floor-raised broiler chickens. By using this feed tray, the size of a single feed tray and the number of feeding positions are increased, while the number of feeding lines is reduced, thus lowering equipment investment and the space occupied in the chicken house. It optimizes the feeding environment, avoids competition among chickens for feed, promotes uniform feeding and growth, and improves breeding efficiency. At the same time, the reduction in feeding lines lowers the probability of malfunctions and maintenance costs, contributing to a dual improvement in breeding efficiency and management convenience.

[0026] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of this utility model will now be described in detail. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, will provide a further detailed description. For those skilled in the art, this utility model can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of this utility model by illustrating examples.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this utility model provides a novel feed tray technology solution for floor-raised broiler chickens: it includes a base 1 and an outer cover 2, with the outer cover 2 covering the base 1 and together forming a feeding space. The outer cover 2 has multiple feeding openings for the broilers to access the feed. Simultaneously, the inner edge of the outer cover 2 extends inward to form an inwardly turned edge 21, a design intended to prevent the broilers from scraping feed out of the feed tray during feeding, thereby reducing feed waste.

[0028] The outer cover 2 and the chassis 1 are detachably connected. Specifically, the outer cover 2 is engaged with the chassis 1 by a buckle 22 at its bottom. This design makes the assembly and disassembly of the tray more convenient, and also facilitates the cleaning and maintenance of the tray.

[0029] To further optimize the feeding environment for broilers, several feeding dividers 23 are provided on the outer cover 2. These feeding dividers 23 divide the feeding area on the outer cover 2 into multiple independent feeding positions. In this way, each broiler can feed in a relatively independent feeding position, avoiding feeding competition among chickens and helping to promote uniform feeding and growth of broilers.

[0030] In addition, the new feed tray also includes a movable cone 26 and an outer cover fixing sleeve 24. The outer cover fixing sleeve 24 is installed at the bottom of the outer cover 2, and the movable cone 26 is located above the center of the base 1. The movable cone 26 is designed to guide and disperse the feed falling from the feeding line, so that the feed can be more evenly distributed in the feed tray. A U-shaped guide block 27 is provided on the outside of the movable cone 26, and multiple sets of retaining strips 25 are provided on the outer cover fixing sleeve 24 along the vertical direction, and the retaining strips 25 are located inside the U-shaped guide block 27. A retaining block 28 is provided on the movable cone 26, and the retaining block 28 is connected with the retaining strips 25, so that the movable cone 26 can move up and down within a certain range to adapt to different feed amounts. This design can not only ensure the even distribution of feed, but also adapt to the needs of different breeding scenarios.

[0031] The top of the outer cover 2 is provided with a fixed shell 31 and a movable shell 32. This design is used to fix the position of the outer cover 2 and prevent it from moving or tilting during the broiler feeding process, thereby ensuring the stability and effectiveness of the feed tray.

[0032] In practical use, this new type of feed tray can significantly increase the size of a single feed tray and the number of feeding positions, while reducing the number of feeding lines, thereby reducing equipment investment and chicken house space occupation. At the same time, it optimizes the feeding environment, avoids competition among chickens for feed, promotes uniform feeding and growth of broilers, and improves breeding efficiency. Furthermore, due to the reduction in feeding lines, the probability of failure and maintenance costs are also correspondingly reduced, contributing to improved breeding efficiency and management convenience.

[0033] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: After assembling each component of this solution in sequence, work according to the above implementation methods according to actual needs to complete all working steps.
