Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of animal husbandry technology, specifically relating to a water feeding device for sheep farming. Background Technology

[0002] Against the backdrop of the booming development of modern animal husbandry, sheep farming, as an important component, is continuously improving in terms of scale and scientific management. Watering devices for sheep play a crucial and irreplaceable role in the entire farming process, having a profound impact on sheep health, farming efficiency, and sustainable development. The water troughs for livestock are mostly made of food-grade 304 stainless steel or high-density polyethylene, which are corrosion-resistant and impact-resistant, protecting them from sheep biting and daily scratches, while also meeting hygiene standards and preventing secondary water pollution. The troughs are generally long and narrow, with a depth typically controlled at 15-20cm. The width is adapted to the range of movement of the sheep's heads, and the height is designed according to the breed and size of the sheep to ensure that their necks can naturally extend when they lower their heads to drink, reducing water splashing and contamination of the trough walls. The bottom of the existing sheep feeding troughs is mostly designed to be gently sloping or nearly horizontal. When sheep drink water, the feed residue, hair, feces and other impurities brought in by the sheep are easy to accumulate in the depressions at the bottom of the trough, the corners and gaps or around the drain. Manual cleaning often depends on the subjective judgment of the farmers, and the cleaning intervals are easily too long due to being busy or negligent. By this time, the residue has begun to decompose, producing odors and harmful microorganisms. After drinking the water, the sheep may refuse to eat or have diarrhea. Utility Model Content

[0013] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0014] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides the following technical solution: A water feeding device for sheep farming, including a water trough 1, a servo motor 2 mounted on one side surface of the water trough 1, a ball screw 3 connected to the output end surface of the servo motor 2, the other side surface of the ball screw 3 sleeved on the inner wall of a bearing 4, the surface of the bearing 4 mounted on the side plate surface of the water trough 1, the surface of the ball screw 3 threadedly connected to the surface of a threaded groove 6 opened on the surface of a movable frame 5, the inner wall of the movable frame 5 sleeved on the upper surface of the water trough 1, the inner wall surface of the water trough 1 abutting against a scraper 7, the top surface of the scraper 7 connected to the horizontal axis of the movable frame 5. At the bottom end, the scraper 7 is connected to the push rod 8, and the surface of one side of the drinking trough 1 is connected to the drain pipe 9. The inner wall surface of the drain pipe 9 is engaged with the baffle 10. The top of the baffle 10 is connected to the ear surface and is rotatably connected to the fixing block 12 by the rotating shaft 11. The surface of the fixing block 12 is connected to the surface of the drinking trough 1. The surface of the baffle 10 is connected to the spring 13. The surface of the spring 13 is connected to the inner wall of the mounting pipe 14. The surface of the mounting pipe 14 is connected to the inner wall of the drinking trough 1. The inner wall surface of the longitudinal end of the drinking trough 1 is connected to the protective sleeve 15. The inner wall surface of the protective sleeve 15 is sleeved on the bottom of the movable frame 5.

[0015] Preferably, the surface of the movable frame 5 is provided with a "C"-shaped through groove, the shape and size of which are adapted to the tank body of the drinking trough 1.

[0016] In practical use, the "C"-shaped through groove on the surface of the movable frame 5 allows it to fit onto the surface of the water tank 1, thereby moving stably and parallel on the surface of the water tank 1 under the drive of the ball screw 3.

[0017] Preferably, the scraper 7 is a semi-circular plate, the shape and size of which are adapted to the groove at the top of the drinking trough 1.

[0018] In practical use, silicone sealing strips (2-3mm thick) are glued to the bottom and side edges of scraper 7. The elastic deformation fills the gaps, ensuring the thorough removal of residue from the corners of the trough. At the same time, reinforcing ribs are added to the back of scraper 7 to prevent deformation caused by long-term scraping. When the moving frame 5 moves, the scraper 7 connected to its surface is moved along with it, so that scraper 7 abuts against the inner wall of the drinking trough 1 to scrape and clean the feed residue and sheep manure and other impurities adhering to its surface.

[0019] Preferably, the baffle 10, the rotating shaft 11 and the fixing block 12 form a rotating connection structure.

[0020] In practical use, the scraper 7 moves outward to push the baffle 10 to flip. The rotating shaft 11 connected to the top of the baffle 10 can rotate and open inside the drain pipe 9 under the fixation of the fixing block 12, thereby exposing the opening end of the blocked drain pipe 9 from below, so that the impurities scraped by the scraper 7 can be discharged to the outside from the inclined drain pipe 9.

[0021] Preferably, the baffle 10, spring 13 and mounting tube 14 form an elastic connection structure.

[0022] In actual use, after the push rod 8 disengages from the surface of the scraper 7, the spring 13 elastically connected to one side of the baffle 10 causes the baffle 10 to rebound. When the baffle 10 rebounds, it is rotated downward again through the rotating shaft 11 connected to its top, until the baffle 10 is once again locked onto the inner wall of the drain pipe 9 to block it.

[0023] Preferably, the top of the protective sleeve 15 has a rectangular groove, the shape and size of which are adapted to the bottom rectangular plate of the movable frame 5.

[0024] In practical use, when the ball screw 3 is running, the protective sleeve 15 installed on the water tank 1 provides a partial shield to the ball screw 3, preventing impurities in the breeding environment from adhering to the surface of the ball screw 3 and thus affecting the stable movement of the mobile frame 5.

[0025] Working principle: During sheep farming, water is supplied to the sheep through water trough 1. Water trough 1 is placed at the bottom of the water outlet connected to the water source outside the farming area, and water is supplied to water trough 1 through external water. Simultaneously, the operating parameters of servo motor 2 can be preset according to the sheep farming situation. During feeding, servo motor 2 is started at regular intervals, causing the connected ball screw 3 to rotate within bearing 4. When ball screw 3 rotates, the threaded movable frame 5 on its surface is moved along the surface of water trough 1 from the side away from the drain pipe 9 towards the drain pipe 9. As the movable frame 5 moves, the scraper 7 connected to its surface is also moved, causing the food-grade silicone scraper... 7 is pressed against the inner wall of the drinking trough 1 to scrape and clean the feed residue and sheep manure and other impurities adhering to its surface. When the scraper 7 moves to the side close to the drain pipe 9, the push rod 8 made of engineering plastic material connected to its surface abuts against the surface of the baffle 10 made of high-density polyethylene material, which increases the stability of the contact surface between the two, and is resistant to water immersion and odorless. The movement of the scraper 7 pushes the baffle 10 outward to flip it. The rotating shaft 11 connected to the top of the baffle 10 can rotate and open inside the drain pipe 9 with the fixing block 12, so that the opening end of the drain pipe 9 that was blocked is exposed from below, and the impurities scraped by the scraper 7 can be discharged to the outside from the inclined drain pipe 9. Furthermore, after the scraper 7 moves from the side away from the drain pipe 9 to the side close to the drain pipe 9, the push rod 8 pushes the drain pipe 9 to rotate to the maximum angle and then stops. The scraper 7 is then driven back to its original position by the reverse rotation of the servo motor 2. After the push rod 8 disengages from the surface of the scraper 7, the stainless steel spring 13 elastically connected to one side of the baffle 10 causes the baffle 10 to rebound. The stainless steel spring 13 is rust-resistant and ensures that it maintains its elasticity in a humid environment for a long time, stably controlling the opening and closing of the baffle 10. When the baffle 10 rebounds, it is rotated downward again by the rotating shaft 11 connected to its top until the baffle 10 is locked onto the inner wall of the drain pipe 9 to block it. During this process, the ball screw 3 can repeat the above reciprocating motion as needed to scrape away the impurities on the inner wall of the drinking trough 1. When the ball screw 3 is running, the protective sleeve 15 installed on the water tank 1 provides a partial shield to the ball screw 3, preventing impurities in the breeding environment from adhering to the surface of the ball screw 3 and thus affecting the stable movement of the moving frame 5. In this design, the servo motor 2 housing is made of waterproof and dustproof material, and the moving frame 5 is made of aluminum alloy.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
