Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, and in particular to a novel convenient feeding trough. Background Technology

[0002] Animal husbandry refers to the production process of using domesticated animals such as livestock and poultry to convert plant energy from pasture and feed into animal energy through artificial breeding and raising, in order to obtain livestock products such as meat, eggs, milk, wool, cashmere, hides, silk, and medicinal materials. Feeding troughs are used in animal husbandry; however, most existing feeding troughs are fixed, simple trough structures. During animal feeding, animals can easily enter the troughs and trample on the feed, affecting the cleanliness of the feed. Utility Model Content

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0027] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a novel portable feeding trough includes a movable support mechanism, a height adjustment component on the movable support mechanism, and a feeding mechanism for independently feeding animals on the height adjustment component.

[0028] In this embodiment: the movable support mechanism includes a base plate 11, with a support wheel 12 rotatably connected to one side of the base plate 11, and a support leg 13 and a handrail 14 fixed to the other side of the base plate 11; the height adjustment assembly includes a fixed seat 21 disposed on the upper end of the base plate 11 and a support 22 disposed opposite to it, a lead screw 23 disposed on the support 22, wherein a handwheel is fixed through the outward end of the lead screw 23 through the support 22, and a guide rail 24 is fixed on the upper end of the base plate 11 between the supports 22, an adjustment seat 25 is disposed on the lead screw 23 and the guide rail 24, and cross-arranged support rods 26 are rotatably connected to the adjustment seat 25 and the fixed seat 21, and the support rods 26 are rotatably connected to each other by a pin. The upper end of the rod 26 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 27 via a pin. The mounting plate 27 is fixed to the lower end of the box cover 31. A transverse sliding groove is provided on the mounting plate 27 above the adjusting seat 25. The pin at one end of the rod 26 is slidably connected to the sliding groove. The lead screw 23 is rotatably connected to the support 22. The adjusting seat 25 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 23. The adjusting seat 25 is slidably connected to the guide rail 24. By rotating the lead screw 23, the lead screw 23 pushes the adjusting seat 25 to move under the support of the guide rail 24, thereby adjusting the included angle between the rods 26. The rods 26 adjust the overall height of the feeding mechanism at the upper end of the mounting plate 27 to adapt to the feeding needs of animals of different heights.

[0029] In this embodiment, the feeding mechanism includes a box cover 31 with an open upper end and a hopper 32 located on the upper part of the inner wall. A slide rail 33 is provided on the front and rear lower walls of the hopper 32, and a feed trough 34 is mounted on the slide rail 33. Partitions are spaced along the inner side of the hopper 32 to enhance the structural strength of the middle section. The feed trough 34 is slidably connected to the slide rail 33. Feed openings 35 are provided through the box cover 31 and the feed trough 34 at intervals. A side door 37 is rotatably mounted on one side of the box cover 31, and a latch is installed between the side door 37 and the other side of the box cover 31. By opening the side door 37, the feed trough 34 can be pulled outwards under the support of the slide rail 33, improving the convenience of cleaning the feed trough 34. A box cover 36 is provided at the upper end of the box cover 31, and a blocking component for covering the feed opening 35 is provided on the inner wall of the box cover 31 behind it. The box cover 36 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the box cover 31 by a pin. Limiting holes are opened on the front side walls of the box cover 36, and a pin is provided on the front side wall of the box cover 31 to limit the position of the box cover 36, so that the box cover 36 can be flipped up and feed can be added into the feed trough 34 through the feed hopper 32.

[0030] The blocking assembly includes a guide seat 38 fixed at intervals on the inner wall of the box cover 31. A stop bar 39 is provided on the guide seat 38. One end of the stop bar 39 is hollow and connected to a screw 310. One end of the screw 310 passes through the box cover 31 and is fixed to a handle 311. The stop bar 39 is slidably connected to the guide seat 38, and the screw 310 is rotatably connected to the box cover 31. The screw 310 is threadedly connected to the stop bar 39. By rotating the handle 311, the screw 310 is rotated, causing the screw 310 and the stop bar 39 to contract or extend, thereby adjusting the position of the stop bar 39 on the guide seat 38 and making the feed opening 35 window larger or smaller.

[0031] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: One end of the base plate 11 is lifted upwards via the handle 14, causing the support wheels 12 to support the entire unit and move it to the desired feeding position. The support wheels 12 and the support legs 13 provide overall support. Then, by rotating the lead screw 23, the lead screw 23 pushes the adjusting seat 25 to move under the support of the guide rail 24, adjusting the angle between the support rods 26. The support rods 26 adjust the height of the box cover 31 at the upper end of the mounting plate 27, so that the feed opening 35 on the box cover 31 is at a suitable height for feeding animals. Flip the box cover 36 and pour the feed into the feed hopper 32 and into the feed trough 34. Then turn the handle 311 to drive the screw 310 to rotate, so that the screw 310 adjusts the position of the stop bar 39 on the guide seat 38, moving the stop bar 39 from the middle of the feed opening 35 to one side, so that the animal's head can enter the feed trough 34 through the feed opening 35 to eat. When it is necessary to clean the feed trough 34, open the side door 37 and pull the feed trough 34 outward with the support of the slide rail 33, which improves the convenience of cleaning the feed trough 34.

[0032] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
