Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ecological aquaculture equipment technology, and in particular to an adjustable floating plate and feeding device for raising ducks in rice paddies. Background Technology

[0002] As an ecological agricultural model, rice-duck farming requires providing a water-based resting and feeding platform for the ducks. However, existing floating platforms and feeding devices have many compatibility issues.

[0003] The floating board structure is fixed and has poor adaptability: Traditional floating boards are mostly designed as a whole, and the size cannot be adjusted according to the scale of breeding (number of ducks); and there is a lack of effective water level adaptation structure. When the water level in the paddy field changes with the rice growth period (5-8cm during the tillering stage and 10-15cm during the heading stage), the floating board is prone to being "submerged when the water level rises" or "suspended when the water level drops", which makes it impossible for the ducks to move normally.

[0004] Insufficient stability and easy displacement: Existing floating boards mostly rely on simple ropes for fixation, which have weak wind resistance and are prone to tilting when ducks gather and move around, posing a safety hazard.

[0005] Feeding is inconvenient and risky: feeding requires manual climbing onto the floating board to add feed, and the paddy field embankment is slippery and easy to fall; the angle of the feed pipe of some devices is fixed, which cannot adapt to the change of distance between the shore and the floating board, resulting in a high feed spillage rate.

[0006] Feed troughs are difficult to clean and prone to disease: Traditional feed troughs are mostly one-piece structures, which are inconvenient to disassemble. Residual feed in the trough is easy to stick and accumulate, and it will become moldy in 2-3 days in the high humidity environment of paddy fields, increasing the risk of enteritis and mycotoxin poisoning in duck flocks; in addition, the floating board has no sewage discharge design, and the accumulation of water and feces can easily pollute the activity environment.

[0007] The components are single-function and have low reusability: most of the components (float, trough, conveying pipe) are fixedly connected, and the whole thing needs to be replaced when damaged, resulting in high maintenance costs. Moreover, the installation method cannot be adjusted according to different paddy field terrains (such as the width of the paddy field ridges and the depth of the mud layer). Utility Model Content

[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an adjustable floating board and feeding device for rice paddy duck farming, which solves the technical problems of traditional rice paddy duck farming floating board devices, such as non-adjustable size, poor water level adaptability, safety hazards caused by needing to climb the board for feeding, inconvenient cleaning of the feed trough, and insufficient overall stability.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0010] An adjustable floating board and feeding device for raising ducks in rice paddies includes a bottom component, a floating board, a conveying component, and a feed trough;

[0011] The bottom component includes a ring of pontoons in a rectangular array. Each pontoon has a connecting seat fixed at one of the four corners of its side. Adjacent pontoons are connected by connecting bolts through the connecting seats.

[0012] Four arc-shaped pedals are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the float plate, and a central groove is opened in the middle part of the float plate, in which a positioning rod is movably sleeved.

[0013] The conveying assembly includes a conveying pipe and a push rod. One end of the conveying pipe is fixedly connected to a discharge port, and the other end is provided with a feed chute.

[0014] The feed trough consists of two semi-circular splicing troughs.

[0015] Preferably, the surface of the float plate has uniformly distributed grooves for drainage and sewage discharge, the float plate is movably engaged between a ring of floats, and the bottom is held in place by a connecting seat on the inner side of the ring of floats;

[0016] The float plate has arc-shaped grooves at the four corners of its upper surface, and the same connecting bolts are installed at the four corners of the inner side of the float tube to press the float plate.

[0017] Preferably, the upper end of the positioning rod is fixed with a slurry surface, and the lower end is a conical end that is inserted into the mud bed.

[0018] Preferred: The upper surface of the arc-shaped pedal is roughened, the discharge port is a ring-shaped piece fitted onto the positioning rod, and the bottom surface of the discharge port has an annular groove that is connected to the conveying pipe.

[0019] Preferred configuration: A collar is movably fitted on the insert rod, a positioning screw is threaded onto the collar, and a sleeve is rotatably connected to the collar, with the sleeve movably fitted onto the conveying pipe;

[0020] The material conveying pipe has threads engraved on the outer wall near the feed trough, and a protective sleeve is fitted onto the threads.

[0021] Preferably, a semi-conical connecting sleeve is fixed in the middle part of the two semi-circular splicing slots. The two connecting sleeves are combined to form a complete conical sleeve that is fitted onto the positioning rod. The upper opening diameter of the conical sleeve is the same as the rod diameter of the positioning rod. A semi-circular threaded post is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the two splicing slots. A connecting nut is threaded onto the complete stud formed by the two threaded posts.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] The floating plate is movably connected to the positioning rod through the middle groove, and can slide up and down with the change of water level in the paddy field, always keeping 10-15cm above the water surface to avoid drowning or being suspended in the air; the feed pipe achieves angle adjustment through the collar + sleeve structure to adapt to different distances between the bank and the floating plate.

[0024] The bottom pontoons are arranged in a rectangular array, providing uniform buoyancy. They are also fixed in place with positioning rods, eliminating the risk of displacement.

[0025] The floating board is supported by a connecting seat and reinforced by an arc-shaped groove, which double limits the structure to prevent water level fluctuations from causing structural deformation. The arc-shaped tread is also roughened to prevent the ducks from slipping and falling.

[0026] The conveying unit enables remote feeding from the shore without the need for a floating board. Feed is simply added from the feed trough, and the feed is evenly dropped into the trough through the conveying pipe and the annular discharge port. The sheath can seal the feed trough to prevent debris from entering and contaminating the feed.

[0027] The circular design of the discharge port, combined with the conical connecting sleeve of the feed trough, guides the feed to disperse towards the edge of the trough, preventing the ducks from crowding and competing for food, thus improving feeding efficiency.

[0028] The feed trough features a double semi-circular splicing design, which can be separated by unscrewing the connecting nuts, making it easy to remove and clean. The smooth inner wall reduces feed adhesion. The surface of the float has grooves that can automatically drain accumulated water and feces, eliminating the need for manual cleaning. Regular cleaning only requires a long-handled brush from the shore, without touching the float.

[0029] The upper part of the positioning rod can also serve as a "paddle". When the position of the device needs to be adjusted, the positioning rod can be pulled out to move the float without the need for additional tools. Attached Figure Description

[0038] This application provides an adjustable floating board and feeding device for rice paddy duck farming, which effectively solves the technical problems of traditional rice paddy duck farming floating board devices, such as non-adjustable size, poor water level adaptability, safety hazards due to the need to climb the board for feeding, inconvenient cleaning of the feed trough, and insufficient overall stability.

[0039] Example

[0040] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the overall technical solution in this application embodiment is as follows:

[0041] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides an adjustable floating board and feeding device for raising ducks in rice paddies. Through modular design, the floating board structure is adjustable, feeding is precise, and installation and maintenance are convenient. The device mainly consists of four parts: a bottom component, a floating board 8, a conveying component, and a feed trough. Each part is detachably connected for quick assembly and adjustment. The overall structure adapts to changes in rice paddy water level (5-15cm) and the activity needs of the duck flock.

[0042] The bottom component provides the core buoyancy of the device, using a ring of rectangular floats 1 as the buoyancy unit, with the specific structure as follows:

[0043] Float 1: Made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), with a single tube diameter of 30-40cm, a height of 40-50cm, and a wall thickness of ≥5mm, possessing impact resistance and aging resistance. Each float 1 has a connecting seat fixed at one of its four corners, with a 10mm diameter through hole in the center of the connecting seat.

[0044] Connecting bolt 7: Both ends are threaded externally and secured with matching nuts. Adjacent floats 1 are fixed by inserting connecting bolts 7 through the through holes of the connecting seat and tightening the nuts, forming a rectangular frame.

[0045] The floating platform 8 provides an activity platform for the ducks and also serves as a drainage and sewage discharge function. It is made of HDPE board, and its size matches the rectangular frame of the bottom component. The surface is evenly grooved to achieve rapid drainage and leakage of feces, reducing the frequency of cleaning.

[0046] Arc-shaped pedal 2: An arc-shaped pedal 2 (HDPE material, arc R=50cm, height 10cm) is fixed in each of the four directions (front, back, left, right) on the upper surface of the float 8. The upper surface of the pedal is roughened (knurled process) to prevent ducks from slipping and to facilitate ducks climbing up the float 8 from the water, while guiding the duck flock to gather in the central feed trough.

[0047] Intermediate trough 9: A circular intermediate trough 9 is opened at the center of the float plate 8. The positioning rod 4 is movably sleeved in the trough, allowing the float plate 8 to slide up and down relative to the positioning rod 4 to adapt to water level changes.

[0048] Connection with the bottom component: The float plate 8 is movably snapped into a rectangular frame composed of a ring of floats 1, and the bottom is held in place by the connecting seat on the inner side of the float 1; the upper surface of the float plate 8 has arc-shaped grooves 10 at the four corners, and the top of the connecting bolts 7 at the four corners of the inner side of the float 1 is snapped into the arc-shaped grooves 10, pressing the float plate 8 and fixing the float plate 8 to avoid structural deformation caused by water level fluctuations.

[0049] The positioning rod 4 is used to fix the overall position of the device and prevent it from being blown away by the wind or moved by the ducks. It is made of galvanized steel pipe, and the upper end is welded to a paddle surface. When the positioning rod 4 is pulled out, the paddle surface allows the positioning rod 4 to be used as a paddle to slide the entire device on the water surface. The lower end is a conical end (cone angle 30°) to facilitate insertion into the paddy field mud bed (insertion depth ≥50cm) to ensure a stable fixation.

[0050] The conveying assembly enables feed transport from the bank to the feed trough, and its structure is as follows:

[0051] Material conveying pipe 5: Made of PVC pipe, with one end fixedly connected to the discharge port 13 via a flange, and the other end having a feed trough 14 (opening upwards to increase the size of the feed opening and make feeding more convenient).

[0052] Discharge port 13: It is a ring-shaped part (PVC material) that is fitted onto the positioning rod 4. The bottom surface has an annular groove that is connected to the conveying pipe 5 so that the feed is evenly discharged downward along the annular groove.

[0053] Insert rod 6: Made of galvanized steel rod, the lower end is inserted into the mud layer on the bank (depth ≥ 40cm), and the upper end is movably fitted with a collar 17; a positioning screw is threaded onto the collar 17, and tightening the positioning screw can fix the height of the collar 17; a bushing is welded to the side of the collar 17, which is rotatably connected to the sleeve 16 through a pin, and the sleeve 16 is movably fitted with the conveying pipe 5 to realize the angle adjustment of the conveying pipe 5.

[0054] Sheath 15: The feed pipe 5 has an external thread engraved on the outer wall near the feed trough 14. Sheath 15 is fitted onto the thread. Tightening sheath 15 can seal the feed trough 14 and prevent foreign objects from entering during transportation or when idle.

[0055] The feed trough is used to receive feed and features a modular design for easy installation and cleaning. Its structure is as follows:

[0056] It consists of two semi-circular splicing grooves 3 with smooth inner walls to reduce feed residue.

[0057] The middle part of the splicing trough 3 is fixed with a semi-conical connecting sleeve 11. The two connecting sleeves 11 are combined to form a complete conical sleeve, which is fitted onto the positioning rod 4 to achieve positioning. The conical structure can guide the feed to disperse to the edge of the trough and avoid accumulation.

[0058] The outer walls of the two splicing slots 3 are welded with semi-circular threaded posts 12, which form a complete stud after splicing. The threaded connection of the stud is connected to the nut. The two splicing slots 3 are fixed by tightening the nut. When disassembling, it is only necessary to unscrew the nut to separate them, which is convenient for individual cleaning.

[0059] How to use:

[0060] (a) Assembly steps:

[0061] Bottom component installation: Arrange the floats 1 in a rectangle and fix them together with connecting seats and connecting bolts 7 to form a buoyancy frame.

[0062] Float installation: Place the float 8 into the frame composed of the float cylinders 1, so that the bottom of the float 8 contacts the connecting seat on the inner side of the float cylinder 1, and the arc-shaped grooves 10 at the four corners of the float 8 abut against the connecting bolts 7 of the float cylinder 1 to fix the position of the float 8.

[0063] Fixing the positioning rod 4: Insert the tapered end of the positioning rod 4 into the paddy field mud bed after passing through the intermediate groove 9 and the discharge port 13.

[0064] Material trough installation: After assembling the connecting sleeves 11 of the two splicing slots 3, align them with the positioning rod 4 and insert them. After splicing, use the connecting nut to fix the threaded column 12 so that the material trough is located above the center of the floating plate 8.

[0065] Installation of conveying components: Insert the insertion rod 6 into the mud layer on the bank and fix it, adjust the height of the collar 17 and fix it by the positioning screw, and put the conveying pipe 5 into the sleeve 16.

[0066] Usage process:

[0067] Feeding operation: Unscrew the sheath 15 of the feed pipe 5 and pour the feed into the feed trough 14. The feed is transported along the feed pipe 5 to the discharge port 13 and falls evenly into the splicing trough 3 of the feed trough below through the discharge port of the annular trough along the conical surface. The ducks climb onto the floating plate 8 through the arc-shaped pedal 2 and feed at the feed trough.

[0068] Water level adaptation: When the water level in the paddy field changes, the floating plate 8 slides up and down along the positioning rod 4 with the water level, always keeping 10-15cm above the water surface.

[0069] Cleaning and maintenance: When the material trough needs to be cleaned, unscrew the connecting nut, separate the two splicing grooves 3, and they can be taken out for cleaning separately; the trough of the float plate 8 can automatically drain the accumulated water and feces, and can be cleaned from the shore with a long-handled brush regularly (every 3-5 days).

[0070] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
