Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of piglet breeding equipment, specifically to a piglet nutrient trough anti-spillage and anti-pollution cover. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of raising piglets, the existing piglet feeding troughs have the following two prominent technical problems:
[0003] Traditional piglet feeding troughs are mostly open or simply covered structures. After a period of use, the covers are easily contaminated with feces, feed residue and other pollutants. Moreover, there is a lack of convenient and effective cleaning devices. Manual cleaning is inefficient and incomplete, and pollutants can easily fall into the feeding trough, causing piglets to ingest harmful substances when eating, which affects the healthy growth of piglets.
[0004] Existing feeding troughs are usually not equipped with special sun protection and rain protection structures. In outdoor or semi-open breeding environments, strong direct sunlight in summer can cause feed in the feeding trough to deteriorate and moisture to evaporate too quickly. On rainy days, rainwater can easily fall into the feeding trough, contaminating the feed and affecting its taste, which is not conducive to piglets eating normally. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems, this application solves the problem of poor anti-pollution effect in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a piglet nutrient trough anti-spillage and anti-pollution cover, including a base plate, a mixing seat is provided on the upper surface of the base plate, a nutrient trough and a cleaning trough are provided on the upper surface of the mixing seat located between the nutrient trough and the cleaning trough, a vertical plate is rotatably provided on the upper surface of the mixing seat located between the nutrient trough and the cleaning trough, a flip-up window is provided on the lower section of the vertical plate, a cover plate is rotatably provided on the bottom of the flip-up window, a cleaning drainage pipe communicating with the cleaning trough is provided on the rear side of the cleaning trough, and a first valve for on / off function is provided on the cleaning drainage pipe;

One end of the horizontal pipe extending out of the end face of the cleaning tank is the spray input end, and the other end is the sealing end. A transition box is vertically slidably installed on the upper part of the vertical plate. An input pipe is provided on the top side of the transition box. A second valve for switching on and off is provided at the output end of the input pipe. Multiple transition box output ports are provided on the bottom side of the transition box. Each transition box output port is connected to the spray input end through a connecting pipe.
[0008] The bottom surface of the transition box is provided with multiple water outlet holes, and the bottom surface of the transition box is provided with multiple second shower heads that are connected to the water outlet holes.
[0009] To better realize this utility model, a recessed notch is further provided at the center of the front side of the upper section of the vertical plate, and a guide groove extending vertically through to the flip window is provided on the top surface of the vertical plate; a guide protrusion is provided on the left and right end faces of the transition box near the vertical plate, and the guide protrusion is slidably sleeved in the guide groove.
[0010] To better realize this utility model, the output end of the first shower head is further arranged at an angle of 15°-45° towards the rear and upper side of the cleaning tank.
[0011] To better realize this utility model, the second shower head is further positioned directly above the washing tank.
[0012] To better realize this utility model, the connecting pipe is further provided with a first electric valve that functions to switch on and off, and the second shower head is provided with a second electric valve that functions to switch on and off.
[0013] To better realize this utility model, a hydraulic telescopic rod is further provided on the front side of the vertical plate between the flip window and the recessed notch. The top telescopic end of the hydraulic telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the middle position of the connecting rod, and the rear end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the middle position of the front top surface of the transition box.
[0014] To better realize this utility model, the front end of the connecting rod is further provided on the rod body at the middle and upper section of the column, a rain shelter is provided at the top of the column, the top view projection of the rain shelter covers the transition box, and the top view projection of the rain shelter covers the washing tank, and a sunshade is provided at the bottom of the column, the top view projection of the sunshade covers the nutrient tank.
[0015] To better realize this utility model, the rear side of the transition box is further provided with scale values.
[0016] To better realize this utility model, the bottom of the flip window is rotatably provided with a pivot, and a cover plate is provided on the pivot;
[0017] A motor housing is provided on the right side of the mixing seat, and a motor is provided on the inner bottom surface of the motor housing. One end of the rotating shaft passes through the side of the vertical plate and the side of the motor housing in sequence, and the end of the rotating shaft located inside the motor housing is connected to the output end of the motor.
[0018] The technical solution provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0019] 1. In this utility model, a cleaning tank is provided, in which a horizontal pipe is embedded and connected to multiple first shower heads arranged at an angle of 15°-45°. A transition box is slidably connected to the upper part of a vertical plate. A second shower head is located on the bottom surface of the transition box, directly above the cleaning tank. The transition box is connected to the horizontal pipe through a connecting pipe and is equipped with a motor-driven cover plate that flips into the cleaning tank. After the cover plate is flipped into the cleaning tank, the first shower head can rinse one side of the cover plate from below, and the second shower head can rinse the other side of the cover plate from above, achieving simultaneous and comprehensive cleaning of both sides of the cover plate. There is no need for manual disassembly of the cover plate for cleaning, reducing labor intensity. Simultaneously, the multi-angle rinsing of the dual shower heads effectively removes contaminants such as feces and feed residue from the cover plate, avoiding cleaning dead spots.
[0020] 2. In this utility model, a sunshade covering the nutrient trough is installed at the bottom of the column, and a hydraulic telescopic rod is installed on the vertical plate. The hydraulic telescopic rod is connected to the transition box and the column through a connecting rod, which can drive the transition box and the sunshade to rise and fall synchronously. Furthermore, the vertical plate has a guide groove that cooperates with the guide protrusion of the transition box to achieve stable sliding. According to changes in the angle of sunlight, the height of the sunshade is adjusted by the hydraulic telescopic rod, ensuring that the sunshade always effectively blocks direct sunlight from reaching the nutrient trough. This prevents the feed in the nutrient trough from overheating and spoiling due to direct sunlight in summer, reduces the rapid evaporation of moisture from the feed, and ensures that the feed is always in a suitable temperature and humidity state.
[0021] 3. In this utility model, the cover plate at the flip-up window of the lower section of the vertical plate is connected to the motor via a rotating shaft. The motor can drive the cover plate to flip, thereby sealing or opening the nutrient tank. A rain shelter is provided on the top of the column to cover the transition box and the washing tank. When the nutrient tank is not in use, the motor drives the cover plate to flip, covering the nutrient tank and sealing it, preventing external debris from falling into the tank and causing feed contamination, while also preventing feed from spilling out of the tank. The rain shelter can prevent rainwater from falling into the transition box and the washing tank. This reduces feed waste, prevents rainwater from contaminating the washing water in the transition box and the washing tank, ensures the normal operation of the washing device, and prevents rainwater from indirectly contaminating the nutrient tank through the washing tank or the transition box.

[0042] The bottom surface of the transition box 108 is provided with a plurality of water outlet holes 122, and the bottom surface of the transition box 108 is provided with a plurality of second shower heads 123 that are connected to the water outlet holes 122.
[0043] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, a recessed notch 125 is provided at the center of the front side of the upper section of the vertical plate 107, and a guide groove extending vertically through to the flip window is provided on the top surface of the vertical plate 107; a guide protrusion 124 is provided on the left and right end faces of the transition box 108 near the vertical plate 107, and the guide protrusion 124 is slidably sleeved in the guide groove.
[0044] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the output end of the first shower head 112 is arranged at an angle of 15°-45° towards the rear and upper side of the cleaning tank 104 (with the inner ground of the cleaning tank 106 as the horizontal reference).
[0045] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the second shower head 123 is located directly above the cleaning tank 104.
[0046] like Figures 1 to 9As shown, in this embodiment, the connecting pipe 111 is provided with a first electric valve that functions to switch on and off, and the second shower head 123 is provided with a second electric valve that functions to switch on and off.
[0047] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the vertical plate 107 is provided with a hydraulic telescopic rod 119 on the front side between the flip window and the recess 125. The top telescopic end of the hydraulic telescopic rod 119 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the connecting rod 120, and the rear end of the connecting rod 120 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the front top surface of the transition box 108.
[0048] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the front end of the connecting rod 120 is located on the upper middle section of the column 121. A rain shelter 115 is provided on the top of the column 121. The top view projection of the rain shelter 115 covers the transition box 108 and the top view projection of the rain shelter 115 covers the washing tank 104. A sunshade 114 is provided at the bottom of the column 121. The top view projection of the sunshade 114 covers the nutrient tank 103.
[0049] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the rear side of the transition box 108 is provided with a scale value 109.
[0050] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the bottom of the flip window is provided with a rotating shaft 117, and a cover plate 105 is provided on the rotating shaft 117;
[0051] The right side of the mixing seat 102 is provided with a motor housing 113, and the inner bottom surface of the motor housing 113 is provided with a motor 116. One end of the rotating shaft 117 passes through the side of the vertical plate 107 and the side of the motor housing 113 in sequence, and the end of the rotating shaft 117 located inside the motor housing 113 is connected to the output end of the motor 116.
[0052] Working principle:
[0053] According to the change in the angle of sunlight, the hydraulic telescopic rod 119 is activated accordingly, causing the sunshade 114 to rise or fall to the appropriate height (simultaneously, the rain shelter 115 and the transition box 108 rise and fall synchronously. Since the connecting pipe 111 is a flexible hose with sufficient expansion and contraction allowance, the connection is not affected during the raising and lowering process). This ensures that the nutrient tank 103 is always protected from strong sunlight.
[0054] After the cover plate 105 has been contaminated for a period of time, the motor 116 is started, causing the rotating shaft 117 to rotate, which in turn causes the cover plate 105 to rotate (during this process, the sunshade 114 and the transition box 108 are both located above the flip window). This continues until the flipped side of the cover plate 105 overlaps the inner bottom surface of the cleaning tank 104, and the side of the cover plate 105 closest to the inner bottom surface of the cleaning tank 104 has sufficient time to contact the first shower head 112, so that after the valve is opened, the cleaning solution sprayed from the first shower head 112 under the action of gravity... The corresponding surface of the cover plate 105 is cleaned with water. At the same time, the hydraulic telescopic rod 119 is activated to move the transition box 108 down (during this process, the connecting rod 120 can move up and down through the relief notch 125) until the second shower head 123 moves down to the appropriate cleaning position on the side of the cover plate 105 close to the second shower head 123, thereby achieving a complete cleaning of the cover plate 105. After cleaning, the motor 116 is activated again to rotate the shaft 117 until the cover plate 105 is attached to and seals the top opening of the nutrient tank 103.
[0055] When the piglet feeding trough is needed, push one side of the spill-proof feeding trough 103 (including the feeding trough 103, sunshade 114, etc.) into the opening at the bottom of the pigpen and secure it with ropes so that the piglets inside the pigpen can eat directly through the feeding trough 103 (during this process, start the motor 116 to flip the cover 105 to a vertical position, thereby exposing the feeding trough 103 to the air).
[0056] It is worth noting that this utility model mainly addresses the technical problems in the background section. The specification clearly describes the targeted core technical means designed to solve the technical problem, and fully elaborates on the specific process by which the core technical means acts on the technical problem, as well as the logical link through which the core technical means ultimately produces innovative and beneficial effects, clearly presenting the correspondence between "technical problem - technical means - technical effect".
[0057] The following is a detailed explanation of the two scenarios in this embodiment that are unrelated to the core solution of this utility model:
[0058] 1. Other technical problems not intended to be solved by this utility model: Such technical problems are not included in the protection scope of this utility model, and the corresponding technical means belong to the category of existing mature technology. Those skilled in the art can directly obtain and apply the corresponding technical means to solve other technical problems not intended to be solved by this utility model based on common knowledge (such as conventional design methods commonly used in the industry) or published existing technical documents (such as authorized patents, technical manuals, academic papers, etc.). Whether or not this part is disclosed does not affect the full disclosure of the technical solution of this utility model itself.
[0059] 2. New technical problems arising during the application of the present utility model: If new technical problems arise during the application of the present utility model, and this application does not provide a targeted further optimization solution, it is assumed that those skilled in the art can directly solve the new technical problems arising during the application of the present utility model by selecting appropriate conventional technical means based on common knowledge or existing technical literature. There is no situation where the core technical solution of the present utility model cannot be implemented because the technical means for the derived problem are not mentioned in this application.
[0060] Regarding the performance and parameters of the parts involved in this utility model's technical solution, the specification has clearly defined their core functional requirements. Those skilled in the art, combining conventional specifications in mechanical design (such as GB / T series national standards), parts selection manuals (such as industry-standard hardware and transmission component parameter manuals), and conventional installation and debugging experience, can reasonably determine and debug the specific performance indicators and parameter values that meet the above functional requirements. This does not rely on "the special experience of the operator," and there is no problem of the technical solution being unachievable due to malfunctions caused by unclear part performance or parameters, or by special extreme limiting conditions.
[0061] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. For those skilled in the art, this application can have various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
