Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lamb breeding technology, and more specifically, it relates to a slow-release bionic feeder for lamb weaning stress. Background Technology

[0002] The weaning period for lambs is a critical stage in lamb farming. During this time, lambs need to transition from breast milk to solid feed, which causes both physiological and psychological stress, manifesting as decreased feed intake, restlessness, slow growth, and even disease. However, existing weaning feeding equipment is mostly ordinary troughs or simple feed buckets, which can only provide feed and cannot simulate the warmth and touch of a mother sheep nursing. This results in a prolonged stress response. Furthermore, traditional equipment lacks a slow-release feed function, which can easily lead to lambs overeating or wasting feed, further exacerbating the impact of weaning stress on lamb growth and failing to meet the needs of efficient and healthy lamb weaning farming. Utility Model Content

[0003] (1) Technical problems to be solved In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a slow-release bionic feeder for lambs weaning stress, which has the characteristics of simulating ewe lactation and having a slow-release feed function.

[0004] (2) Technical solution To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a slow-release bionic feeder for lamb weaning stress, comprising a base, a support frame fixedly connected to the top of the base, a bionic ewe body fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, a feed tank fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the bionic ewe body via a support plate, a bearing provided at the top of the feed tank, and a rotating shaft passing through the inside of the bearing, a motor fixedly connected to the top of the feed tank via a fixing frame, the output end of the motor fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft, and a stirring rod and a spiral fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft. The bionic ewe body has a bionic udder at its bottom and a bionic nipple at its bottom. The bionic udder and nipple share a common discharge pipe. The bottom end of the fixed pipe is fixedly connected to the top end of the discharge pipe. A heating plate and a temperature sensor are located inside the bionic udder. A control shell is mounted on the surface of the bionic ewe body, and a controller is located inside the control shell.

[0005] When using the lamb weaning stress-relieving bionic feeder based on this technology, the bionic ewe body, bionic udder, bionic teats, heating plate, and temperature sensor visually closely resemble the shape of a ewe, while the bionic udder and soft bionic teats simulate the structure of the ewe's nursing area. The heating plate heats the bionic udder and teats, and the temperature sensor detects the temperature in real time and feeds it back to the controller. The controller adjusts the heating plate to stabilize the temperature within a range close to the ewe's body temperature, simulating the ewe's nursing scenario from multiple dimensions including visual, tactile, and temperature sensing, effectively reducing the stress on lambs. The psychological stress of weaning helps lambs quickly adapt to non-maternal feeding. Through a motor, rotating shaft, spiral blades, fixed tube, and discharge pipe, the motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate the spiral blades inside the fixed tube, which pushes the feed in the storage tank to the discharge pipe at a uniform speed. Then, the feed flows out quantitatively through the bionic nipple, realizing the slow release of feed. At the same time, the stirring rod on the rotating shaft can stir the feed in the storage tank to prevent the feed from getting damp and clumping. This avoids lambs overeating or eating too quickly, which can cause gastrointestinal stress. It also reduces feed waste, ensures the health of lambs, and alleviates physiological stress.

[0006] Furthermore, a feeding pipe is fixedly connected to the top of the storage tank, and a cap is threadedly connected to the top of the feeding pipe.

[0007] Furthermore, the surface of the control housing is provided with an operation panel, which includes a display screen and operation buttons.

[0008] Furthermore, the number of storage tanks is four, and the connection structure of the four storage tanks is the same.

[0009] Furthermore, a rubber pad is provided at the bottom of the base.

[0010] (3) Beneficial effects In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. This lamb weaning stress-relieving bionic feeder incorporates a bionic ewe body, bionic udder, bionic teats, a heating plate, and a temperature sensor. The bionic ewe body visually resembles the shape of a ewe, while the bionic udder and soft bionic teats simulate the structure of the ewe's nursing area. The heating plate heats the bionic udder and teats, and the temperature sensor detects the temperature in real time and feeds it back to the controller. The controller adjusts the heating plate to stabilize the temperature at a range close to the ewe's body temperature. This multi-dimensional simulation of the ewe's nursing scenario, including visual, tactile, and temperature sensations, effectively reduces the psychological stress of lambs during weaning and helps them quickly adapt to non-milk feeding. 2. This slow-release bionic feeder for lambs to relieve weaning stress is equipped with a motor, a rotating shaft, spiral blades, a fixed tube, and a discharge tube. The motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate the spiral blades inside the fixed tube, which pushes the feed in the storage tank to the discharge tube at a uniform speed. The feed then flows out quantitatively through the bionic nipple, achieving slow release of feed. At the same time, the stirring rod on the rotating shaft can stir the feed in the storage tank to prevent the feed from getting damp and clumping. This avoids lambs overeating or eating too quickly, which can cause gastrointestinal stress. It also reduces feed waste, ensures the health of lambs, and alleviates physiological stress.

Detailed Implementation

[0014] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the technical solutions in the specific embodiments of this utility model are clearly and completely described below to further illustrate this utility model. Obviously, the specific embodiments described are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them.

[0015] Example: The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 The present invention will be described in further detail below.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a slow-release bionic feeder for lamb weaning stress, comprising a base 1, a support frame 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base 1, a bionic ewe body 3 fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 2, a storage tank 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the bionic ewe body 3 via a support plate, a bearing provided at the top of the storage tank 4, and a rotating shaft 6 passing through the inside of the bearing, a motor 5 fixedly connected to the top of the storage tank 4 via a fixing frame, the output end of the motor 5 fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft 6, a stirring rod 7 and a spiral blade 8 fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 6, and a storage tank... A fixed tube 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the tank 4, and a spiral blade 8 is movably connected inside the fixed tube 9. A bionic udder 10 is provided at the bottom of the bionic udder 10, and a bionic nipple 14 is provided at the bottom of the bionic udder 10. The same discharge pipe 11 is provided inside the bionic udder 10 and the bionic nipple 14. The bottom end of the fixed tube 9 is fixedly connected to the top end of the discharge pipe 11. A heating plate 12 and a temperature sensor 13 are provided inside the bionic udder 10. A control shell 15 is provided on the surface of the bionic udder 3, and a control device is provided inside the control shell 15. The device 16, by incorporating a bionic ewe body 3, a bionic udder 10, bionic teats 14, a heating plate 12, and a temperature sensor 13, visually closely resembles the form of a ewe. The bionic udder 10 and soft bionic teats 14 simulate the structure of the ewe's lactation area. The heating plate 12 heats the bionic udder 10 and teats, and the temperature sensor 13 detects the temperature in real time and feeds it back to the controller 16. The controller 16 adjusts the heating plate 12 to stabilize the temperature within a range close to the ewe's body temperature. This device simulates the ewe's lactation scenario from multiple dimensions—visual, tactile, and temperature-sensitive—effectively reducing the anxiety of lambs during weaning. This system helps lambs quickly adapt to non-breast milk feeding by incorporating a motor 5, a rotating shaft 6, spiral blades 8, a fixed pipe 9, and a discharge pipe 11. The motor 5 drives the rotating shaft 6 to rotate the spiral blades 8 within the fixed pipe 9, which pushes the feed in the storage tank 4 to the discharge pipe 11 at a uniform speed. The feed then flows out quantitatively through the bionic nipple 14, achieving slow release of feed. At the same time, the stirring rod 7 on the rotating shaft 6 can stir the feed in the storage tank 4, preventing the feed from getting damp and clumping. This avoids lambs overeating or eating too quickly, which can cause gastrointestinal stress, reduces feed waste, ensures the health of lambs, and alleviates physiological stress.

[0017] Specifically, a feeding pipe 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the storage tank 4, and a cap 18 is threadedly connected to the top of the feeding pipe 17.

[0018] Specifically, the surface of the control housing 15 is provided with an operation panel 20, which includes a display screen and operation buttons.

[0019] Specifically, there are four storage tanks 4, and the connection structure of the four storage tanks 4 is the same.

[0020] Specifically, a rubber pad 19 is provided at the bottom of the base 1.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the friction between the base 1 and the ground is increased by the rubber pad 19, which makes it easier to park the device stably.

[0022] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, first rotate the cap 18 on the top feeding pipe 17 of the storage tank 4 to open the feeding port and add lamb-specific weaning feed to each of the four storage tanks 4. After adding, tighten the cap 18 to prevent the feed from getting damp or falling in impurities. Press the power button on the operation panel 20 on the surface of the control shell 15 to start the device, and the display screen of the operation panel 20 will light up. According to the lamb's age and the ewe's body temperature range, set the target temperature through the operation buttons. After receiving the command, the controller 16 starts the heating plate 12 inside the bionic breast 10 to start heating. The temperature sensor 13 detects the temperature of the bionic breast 10 and the bionic nipple 14 in real time and feeds the data back to the controller 16. When the temperature reaches the preset value, the controller 16 controls the heating plate 12 to switch to the heat preservation mode to maintain a stable temperature. After confirming that the temperature is stable, set the speed of the motor 5 through the operation panel 20 and start the motor 5. The output of motor 5 drives the rotating shaft 6 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 6 synchronously drives the stirring rod 7 and the spiral blade 8 on the surface to rotate. The stirring rod 7 stirs the feed in the storage tank 4 to prevent the feed from getting damp and clumping. The spiral blade 8 rotates in the fixed tube 9, pushing the feed at the bottom of the storage tank 4 to the discharge pipe 11 at a uniform speed. The feed flows to the bionic nipple 14 through the discharge pipe 11. After seeing the bionic ewe body 3, the lamb actively approaches and suckles the bionic nipple 14 to eat. The temperature and touch of the bionic udder 10 and the bionic nipple 14 simulate the ewe's nursing environment and alleviate the lamb's stress. During the feeding process, the temperature, motor speed and other parameters can be viewed in real time through the display screen of the operation panel 20. If the lamb eats too fast or too slow, the motor speed of motor 5 can be finely adjusted by operating the buttons to change the feed flow rate. If the temperature deviates from the preset range, the controller 16 will automatically adjust the working state of the heating plate 12 to ensure the temperature simulation effect.

[0023] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present utility model, they are protected by patent law.
