Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of sheep breeding equipment, specifically relating to a drinking water device for sheep breeding. Background Technology

[0002] In sheep farming, drinking water systems are one of the key pieces of equipment for ensuring the healthy growth of sheep. Currently, most sheep drinking water systems on the market have a fixed structure, and the spacing between adjacent drinking areas cannot be flexibly adjusted, making it difficult to adapt to the diverse needs of different farming scenarios. When changes in the scale of farming lead to increases or decreases in the number of sheep, the fixed spacing of the drinking areas easily results in wasted space or insufficient water levels. Furthermore, during the growth cycle from lamb to adult sheep, there are significant differences in body size; fixed drinking spaces can cause inconvenience for lambs or overcrowding for adult sheep due to limited space.

[0003] Furthermore, when multiple sheep drink water simultaneously, the fixed structure cannot divide the water space into reasonable, independent areas, easily leading to sheep fighting for water spots, which can result in pushing, trampling, and other incidents. This not only affects drinking efficiency but may also cause injuries to the sheep, resulting in economic losses for farmers. Based on the above problems, this application proposes a drinking device for sheep farming to improve these issues.

[0004] Practical content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drinking water device for sheep farming. It has a dual positioning structure with sliding groove slider and moving rod positioning hole, which can quickly adjust the baffle spacing according to the increase or decrease of the number of sheep or changes in their body size, adapt to different farming needs, and avoid crowding, pushing and trampling while drinking.

[0006] The specific technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows: A drinking water device for sheep farming includes a drinking trough shell and a controller. The controller is mounted on one end of the drinking trough shell. A water trough is formed inside the drinking trough shell. Sliding grooves are formed on both sides of the upper end of the drinking trough shell. Multiple sliders are slidably connected to both ends of the drinking trough shell and inside the sliding grooves, and the sliding grooves and sliders are adapted to each other. A baffle is fixed to the upper end of each slider. Multiple positioning holes are formed on both sides of the drinking trough shell and at the lower ends of the sliders. A movable block is provided on the side of the baffle away from the drinking trough shell. A movable rod is fixed to one side of the movable block. The movable rod penetrates the inner wall of the baffle, and the end of the movable rod away from the movable block extends into the positioning hole. A pressure plate is fixed to the outside of the movable rod and inside the baffle, and the pressure plate and the baffle are slidably connected. A spring is mounted on the side of the pressure plate near the movable block. The device also includes: Cleaning assembly, which is assembled inside the water tank housing. A height adjustment assembly is mounted at the four corners of the lower end of the drinking trough housing.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the cleaning assembly includes two motors, two first threaded rods, a cleaning plate, and a filter screen. The two motors are fixed to one end of the outer side of the water tank housing, the two first threaded rods are fixed to the output ends of the two motors, and the two first threaded rods are located on both sides inside the water tank housing. The cleaning plate is threaded between the two first threaded rods, and the filter screen is disposed inside the cleaning plate.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, fixing rods are fixed on both sides of the upper end of the cleaning plate, and limit blocks are rotatably connected to the outer sides of both fixing rods.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the height adjustment assembly includes a first support rod, a second support rod, a base plate, a second threaded rod, and a knob. The first support rod is fixed to the lower end of the drinking trough housing, and the first support rod has multiple threaded holes inside.

[0019] Please see the appendix Figures 1 to 3As shown, this utility model provides a drinking water device for sheep farming, including a drinking trough housing 10 and a controller 11. The controller 11 is mounted on one end of the drinking trough housing 10. A water trough 12 is provided inside the drinking trough housing 10. Sliding grooves 13 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the drinking trough housing 10. Multiple sliders 14 are slidably connected to both ends of the drinking trough housing 10 and inside the sliding grooves 13, and the sliding grooves 13 and sliders 14 are adapted to each other. Baffles 15 are fixed to the upper ends of the multiple sliders 14. Multiple positioning holes are provided at the lower end of the slider 14. A movable block 16 is provided on the side of the baffle 15 away from the drinking tank housing 10. A movable rod 17 is fixed to one side of the movable block 16, penetrating the inner wall of the baffle 15. The end of the movable rod 17 away from the movable block 16 extends into the interior of the positioning hole. A pressure plate 18 is fixed to the outside of the movable rod 17 and inside the baffle 15, and the pressure plate 18 and the baffle 15 are slidably connected. A spring 19 is fitted on the side of the pressure plate 18 near the movable block 16. The system also includes: Cleaning component 20 is assembled inside the water tank housing 10. Height adjustment assembly 30 is mounted at the four corners of the lower end of the drinking trough housing 10.

[0020] In this embodiment, sheep can drink water in the water trough 12 inside the water trough housing 10. When the position of the baffle 15 needs to be adjusted, the moving block 16 is moved outward to drive the moving rod 17 out of the positioning hole. After the slider 14 slides along the slide groove 13 to the appropriate position, the spring 19 pushes the pressure plate 18 to insert the moving rod 17 into the corresponding positioning hole to fix the baffle 15. Through the cooperation of the slide groove 13 and the slider 14, and the positioning effect of the moving rod 17 and the positioning hole, the baffle 15 can be flexibly adjusted to suit sheep of different numbers or sizes, avoiding crowding when drinking. The cleaning component 20 cleans the inside of the water trough 12. The cleaning component 20 can clean the water trough 12 in time to ensure drinking water hygiene. The height adjustment component 30 adjusts the height of the four corners at the bottom of the water trough housing 10. The height of the water trough housing 10 can be adjusted according to the growth stage of the sheep or the conditions of the breeding site to improve the drinking comfort of the sheep.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The cleaning component 20 includes two motors 21, two first threaded rods 22, a cleaning plate 23, and a filter screen 24. The two motors 21 are fixed to one end of the outer side of the water tank housing 10, and the two first threaded rods 22 are fixed to the output ends of the two motors 21. The two first threaded rods 22 are located on both sides inside the water tank housing 10. The cleaning plate 23 is threaded between the two first threaded rods 22, and the filter screen 24 is disposed inside the cleaning plate 23.

[0022] In this embodiment, when the water trough 12 needs to be cleaned, the controller 11 links two motors 21 to start simultaneously. The output ends of the two motors 21 drive the two first threaded rods 22 to rotate synchronously. The cleaning plate 23, which is threadedly connected to the two first threaded rods 22, moves smoothly along the length of the first threaded rods 22. The filter screen 24 inside the cleaning plate 23 moves synchronously. During the movement, the filter screen 24 can intercept impurities such as hair and feed residue in the water trough 12, preventing impurities from accumulating and contaminating the drinking water, and ensuring the hygiene of the drinking water for sheep. At the same time, the cleaning plate 23 scrapes the inner wall of the water trough 12 to remove residual dirt, thus cleaning the inside of the water trough 12.

[0023] It should be noted that the drinking tank housing 10 is equipped with a temperature sensor and a liquid level sensor, and the water tank 12 is equipped with a heating rod. The controller 11 controls the overall operation. The temperature sensor detects the water temperature in the water tank 12 in real time, and the liquid level sensor detects the water level in the water tank 12 in real time. The data is transmitted synchronously to the controller 11. When the water temperature is lower than the set value, the controller 11 starts the heating rod to heat the drinking water. When the water level is lower than the set value, a water replenishment mechanism is triggered (a water inlet pipe is provided at the end of the drinking tank housing 10 away from the controller 11, and a solenoid valve is provided at the upper end of the water inlet pipe. The controller 11 controls the opening and closing of the solenoid valve, thereby replenishing water to the water tank 12). The controller 11 can simultaneously control the two motors 21 to start and maintain synchronous operation. The above working principle is a conventional method or common knowledge, and will not be elaborated here. At the same time, the lower end of the cleaning plate 23 has an arc-shaped groove, which is adapted to the heating rod, so that the heating rod will not interfere with the movement of the cleaning plate 23 when it moves.

[0024] Secondly, please refer to it again. Figure 4 Both sides of the upper end of the cleaning plate 23 are fixed with fixing rods 25, and the outer sides of the two fixing rods 25 are rotatably connected with limit blocks 26.

[0025] In this embodiment, the two fixing rods 25 on both sides of the upper end of the cleaning plate 23 provide rotation fulcrums for the two limiting blocks 26. At the same time, the two limiting blocks 26 and the two fixing rods 25 have damping characteristics, which can maintain a stable angle after rotation. The two limiting blocks 26 are directly attached to the edge of the upper end of the filter screen 24 to achieve limiting and fixing, so as to prevent the filter screen 24 from shifting due to water flow impact or impurity accumulation.

[0026] Secondly, please refer to the following as well. Figure 1 and Figure 5The height adjustment assembly 30 includes a first support rod 31, a second support rod 32, a base plate 33, a second threaded rod 34, and a knob 35. The first support rod 31 is fixed to the lower end of the drinking tank housing 10, and the first support rod 31 has multiple threaded holes inside. The second support rod 32 is sleeved on the outside of the first support rod 31. The base plate 33 is fixed to the lower end of the second support rod 32. The second threaded rod 34 is threadedly connected to the inside of the second support rod 32, and the second threaded rod 34 penetrates the inner wall of the first support rod 31. The second threaded rod 34 and the threaded holes are compatible. One end of the second threaded rod 34 extends to the outside of the second support rod 32. The knob 35 is fixed to one end of the second threaded rod 34.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first support rod 31 is fixed to the lower end of the water tank housing 10, and the second support rod 32 is sleeved on the outside of the first support rod 31. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the water tank housing 10, the knob 35 is turned to drive the second threaded rod 34 to rotate inside the second support rod 32. Since the second threaded rod 34 is adapted to multiple threaded holes inside the first support rod 31, the rotating second threaded rod 34 will disengage from the current threaded hole. Then, the first support rod 31 is moved up and down to a suitable height, and then the knob 35 is turned in the opposite direction to screw the second threaded rod 34 into the corresponding threaded hole, thereby fixing the first support rod 31 and the second support rod 32, and thus completing the height adjustment of the water tank housing 10.

[0028] To further understand and explain, Figure 5 For example, the outer side of knob 35 has anti-slip texture, and the anti-slip texture is made of rubber.

[0029] In this embodiment, when the knob 35 is rotated to adjust the height of the drinking trough housing 10, the rubber anti-slip texture on the outside of the knob 35 directly contacts the operator's hand. Through the frictional characteristics of the rubber material itself and the concave-convex structure of the anti-slip texture, the friction between the hand and the knob 35 is increased, avoiding slippage during rotation. This allows the operator to apply force more stably to rotate the knob 35, thereby driving the second threaded rod 34 to smoothly screw into or out of the threaded hole inside the first support rod 31.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 A water outlet pipe 27 is provided at the end of the water tank housing 10 away from the controller 11, and a valve 28 is provided on the outside of the water outlet pipe 27.

[0031] In this embodiment, the water outlet pipe 27 located at the end of the water tank housing 10 away from the controller 11 is connected to the inside of the water tank 12. When it is necessary to drain the water in the water tank 12 (such as when cleaning and changing the water), the operator can manually adjust the valve 28 on the outside of the water outlet pipe 27. By rotating the valve core of the valve 28, the opening degree can be changed, so that the water in the water tank 12 can be smoothly discharged along the water outlet pipe 27. After the drainage is completed, the water outlet pipe 27 can be closed by rotating the valve 28 in the opposite direction to prevent the water in the water tank 12 from flowing out.

[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Depending on the number of sheep, their size, or the needs of the sheep, the drinking area can be adjusted via the baffle 15: the moving block 16 moves outward to drive the moving rod 17 away from the positioning holes on both sides of the drinking trough housing 10, and multiple sliders 14 slide along the sliding grooves 13 on both sides of the upper end of the drinking trough housing 10 to adjust the baffle 15 to a suitable position. Then, the spring 19 pushes the pressure plate 18 to insert the moving rod 17 into the corresponding positioning hole, thus fixing the baffle 15 and preventing crowding when the sheep drink.

[0033] When the water tank 12 needs cleaning, the controller 11 activates the two motors 21 fixed to one end of the outer side of the water tank housing 10 in the linkage cleaning assembly 20. The output ends of the two motors 21 drive the two first threaded rods 22 located on both sides inside the water tank housing 10 to rotate synchronously. The cleaning plate 23, which is threadedly connected to the two first threaded rods 22, moves smoothly along the length of the first threaded rods 22. The fixing rods 25 on both sides of the upper end of the cleaning plate 23 provide rotation fulcrums for the two limiting blocks 26. At the same time, the limiting blocks 26 are in contact with the edge of the filter screen 24. The damping characteristics between the two prevent the filter screen 24 from shifting due to water flow impact or impurity accumulation. During the movement of the cleaning plate 23, the filter screen 24 inside it simultaneously intercepts impurities such as hair and feed residue in the water tank 12. The cleaning plate 23 itself scrapes the inner wall of the water tank 12 to remove residual dirt, achieving all-round cleaning of the water tank 12. After cleaning or when the water needs to be changed, the operator manually rotates the valve 28 on the outside of the water outlet pipe 27 to discharge the sewage and impurities in the water tank 12 along the water outlet pipe 27. After the drainage is completed, the valve 28 is rotated in the opposite direction to close the water outlet pipe 27.

[0034] For sheep at different growth stages or for different terrains in the breeding area, the height of the water trough housing 10 can be adjusted using the height adjustment component 30: The operator holds the rubber anti-slip texture on the outside of the knob 35 (the texture and rubber material increase friction to prevent slipping), and rotates the knob 35 to drive the second threaded rod 34 to rotate inside the second support rod 32. This causes the second threaded rod 34 to disengage from the threaded hole inside the first support rod 31. The first support rod 31 (the second support rod 32 is sleeved on the outside of the first support rod 31) is moved up and down and fixed to the lower end of the water trough housing 10 to a suitable height. Then, the knob 35 is rotated in the opposite direction to screw the second threaded rod 34 into the threaded hole at the corresponding position of the first support rod 31, thus fixing the first support rod 31 and the second support rod 32, thereby completing the height adjustment of the water trough housing 10. The base plate 33 provides stable support for the entire device.

[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the art.
