[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0022] See Figures 1 to 2 This utility model provides a feed trough that is easy to clean, comprising:

[0023] Feeding trough 1, the feeding trough 1 is provided with multiple partitions 2, and a drain outlet is provided at the bottom of the feeding trough 1;

[0024] A cleaning device is suspended above the feeding trough 1. The cleaning device includes a cleaning chamber 3, a nozzle 5, and bristles 6. The cleaning chamber 3 has an inner cavity 7 that is closed on all sides and open at one end. The opening 8 of the inner cavity 7 faces the feeding trough 1.

[0025] The cleaning chamber 3 has a static state and a cleaning state that is covered by the feeding trough 1.

[0026] In this embodiment, three partitions 2 are installed inside the feeding trough 1, dividing the feeding trough 1 into three independent feeding areas. This is suitable for multiple animals to eat at the same time, avoiding competition. The cleaning chamber 3 is suspended above the feeding trough 1. The cleaning chamber 3 has an inner chamber 7 that is closed on all sides and open at one end, with the opening 8 facing the feeding trough 1. A nozzle 5 and brushes 6 are installed inside the inner chamber 7. The nozzle 5 is used to connect to an external water source. When the cleaning chamber 3 is stationary, it remains suspended above the feeding trough 1, allowing the keeper to feed the animals normally. After the animals have finished eating, the cleaning chamber 3 is cleaned. The farmer moves the cleaning chamber 3 above the feeding trough 1 and aligns it with its top edge. Then, the spray nozzle 5 and brush 6 are turned on to scrape and clean, forming a closed cleaning process. Wastewater can be discharged through the drain outlet (not shown) at the bottom of the feeding trough 1 and connected to an external water pipe. Using this feed trough structure, the wastewater and splashed dirt generated during the cleaning process can be effectively contained inside the cleaning chamber 3 and the feeding trough 1, solving the problems of damp surrounding environment, pollution and water waste caused by traditional open cleaning, and greatly improving the hygiene of the breeding site.

[0027] The cleaning chamber 3 is provided with a plurality of clearance openings 9 at the end opposite to the opening 8, and the partition 2 abuts against one side of each clearance opening 9.

[0028] In this embodiment, three clearance openings 9 are provided on the cleaning chamber 3, and three partitions 2 are abutted against one side of the three clearance openings 9 to form an alternating arrangement. The feeder moves the cleaning chamber 3 so that the partitions 2 and the clearance openings 9 overlap, so that the cleaning chamber 3 can be closed on the feeding trough 1 for closed cleaning.

[0029] The cleaning chamber 3 is suspended above the feeding trough 1 via a rotating shaft 4; the rotating shaft 4 is movably inserted into the feeding trough 1, and the cleaning chamber 3 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 4 via a first sleeve 17.

[0030] In this embodiment, a rotating shaft 4 is provided between the cleaning chamber 3 and the feeding trough 1. One end of the rotating shaft 4 is movably connected to the feeding trough 1. The cleaning chamber 3 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 4 through the first sleeve 17. A first motor 13 and a second motor 14 can be provided on the rotating shaft 4. The second motor 14 is used to drive the brush 6 to rotate. The feeder first rotates the cleaning chamber 3 so that the clearance opening 9 coincides with the partition 2 so that the cleaning chamber 3 covers the feeding trough 1. Then, the first motor 13 is started. The first motor 13 drives the rotation of the cleaning chamber 3, so that the working range of the brush 6 and the nozzle 5 is wider, making it easier to clean all parts of the feeding trough 1.

[0031] The partition 2 is sleeved onto the rotating shaft 4 via a second sleeve 18. Furthermore, the partition 2 has a first scraping part 11 and a second scraping part 12, the first scraping part 11 abutting against the side wall of the feeding trough 1, and the second scraping part 12 abutting against the upper surface of the feeding trough 1.

[0032] In this embodiment, the partition 2 is sleeved onto the rotating shaft 4 through the second sleeve 18. The partition 2 has a first scraping part 11 and a second scraping part 12. The first scraping part 11 is attached to the side wall of the feeding trough 1, and the second scraping part 12 is attached to the upper surface of the feeding trough 1. Both the first scraping part 11 and the second scraping part 12 are provided on the inclined surface of the partition 2. The lower end of the inclined surface is attached to the feeding trough 1, and its upper end extends away from the feeding trough 1. When the first motor 13 drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate, the first scraping part 11 and the second scraping part 12 can be linked to scrape different end faces of the feeding trough 1 at the same time to remove the stains that the nozzle 5 and the brush bristles 6 cannot clean.

[0033] The cleaning chamber 3 and the feeding trough 1 have matching flanges 15 and grooves 16 on their opposite end faces.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the cleaning chamber 3 is closed on the feeding trough 1, the flange 15 of the cleaning chamber 3 extends into the groove 16 of the feeding trough 1, which facilitates the first motor 13 to drive the cleaning chamber 3 to rotate relative to the feeding trough 1, and also prevents water leakage from the gap between the two.

[0035] A connecting plate 10 is provided between the partition 2 and the inner chamber 7, and the connecting plate 10 abuts against the opposite end faces of the partition 2 and the inner chamber 7 respectively.

[0036] In this embodiment, a connecting plate 10 is provided between the partition 2 and the inner chamber 7. The connecting plate 10 is used as an extension of the partition 2, so that the clearance port 9 of the cleaning chamber 3 can accurately overlap with the partition 2 after rotation. The connecting plate 10 extends into the clearance port 9 as a limiting structure, so that the partition 2 is completely located in the inner chamber 7, avoiding the situation where the partition 2 is not cleaned properly.

[0037] The connecting plate 10 is provided with a rubber layer.

[0038] In this embodiment, rubber layers are provided on opposite sides of the connecting plate 10 to compensate for the gap between the connecting plate 10 and the relief port 9 when the connecting plate 10 extends into the relief port 9, thereby preventing sewage from overflowing from the relief port 9.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
