Drinking bowl for feeding kids

Abstract

The utility model relates to animal husbandry and is intended for artificial feeding of kids. A drinking bowl for feeding kids comprises a drinking container with side walls, mounted on legs, with openings on the side walls for the outlet of bottles containing feed, and supports in the central part of the drinking bowl, ensuring a 30° inclination of the bottles placed inside. The container is designed as half a horizontal pipe, and two horizontal plates connected at an angle of 120° and resting on the ends of the latter serve as supports for the bottles, while the openings for the outlet of the nipples of the bottles containing feed are angled at 30°. 1 fig.

Description

[0001] The utility model relates to animal husbandry and is intended for artificial feeding of kids.

[0002] One of the important goals of agriculture is to increase livestock production. Increasing goat milk production is particularly urgent due to the increasing incidence of childhood allergies.

[0003] Analysis of technologies for raising young animals in foreign and domestic livestock farming shows that the most labor-intensive process, especially in dairy goat farming, is considered to be raising kids up to 3-4 months of age.

[0004] A calf feeding system is known (IZ No. 1178370), comprising a container for liquid feed, a pipeline, a dispenser, nipples secured to a rotating shaft, a bath with a disinfectant solution, wherein the container is installed with the possibility of rotation around its longitudinal axis, the rotating shaft is located inside the container, and the dispensers are secured to the said shaft with the possibility of rotation around its transverse axis.

[0005] The disadvantage of the installation is that it cannot be used for watering kids.

[0006] A device for feeding young farm animals is known (IZ No. 1576088), which contains a bucket located at an angle in a trough, the device for fastening it is made in the form of a rigid rod with a shank, attached to the outside of the wall of the bucket, an opening for the rod with a shank, which is located outside the trough.

[0007] The disadvantage of the device is that it cannot be used for watering kids.

[0008] A device for feeding young animals (IZ No. 1440440) is known, comprising horizontal slots connected to a vertical slot. Nipples are mounted in the slots and are movable relative to each other and have kinematically connected clamps. The side panels have slots in which clamps are installed, designed as L-shaped rods with clamps. The clamps are designed as a bar mounted perpendicular to the slots and levers pivotally connected to it and to the nipples.

[0009] The disadvantage of the device is that it cannot be used for watering kids, since it is intended for feeding piglets.

[0010] A drinking bowl for kids is known (IZ No. 2483531), which includes a drinking container, which is made in the form of a rectangular box on legs, in the center of which, parallel to the side walls with holes for the outlet of the nipple part of the bottles with food, there are lower and upper supports, while between them, transverse guides are rigidly fixed, ensuring an inclination of 30° for the bottles placed inside.

[0011] A drawback of the drinker is its complex design, due to the presence of lower and upper support boards, as well as cross guides, to ensure a 30° tilt for the bottles placed inside. The method for achieving this 30° tilt is not explained in the description.

[0012] A drinker for feeding kids (PM No. 239339) is known. It comprises a drinking bowl with side walls, mounted on legs. The side walls have openings for the nipples of feeding bottles. The central portion of the bowl has supports that allow the bottles placed inside to tilt at a 30° angle. The bowl is designed as half a horizontal pipe, and two horizontal plates, joined at a 120° angle and resting on the ends of the pipe, serve as supports for the bottles. This drinker was selected as the prototype.

[0013] The disadvantage of the prototype is the skew of the nipple part of the bottles, caused by the change in the angle of inclination of the latter from 30° to a horizontal position, which, in turn, reduces their cross-section and makes it difficult for the feed to flow out.

[0014] The technical result is to eliminate this drawback and ensure normal flow of food from bottles.

[0015] The technical result is achieved due to the fact that a drinking bowl for feeding kids includes a drinking container with side walls, mounted on legs, on the side walls of which there are openings for the outlet of the nipple part of the bottles with food, and in the central part of the drinking bowl there are supports that provide an inclination of 30° for the bottles placed inside, the container is made in the form of half a horizontal pipe, and as supports for the bottles there are two horizontal plates connected at an angle of 120° and resting on the ends of the latter, and the openings for the outlet of the nipple part of the bottles with food are made at an angle of 30°.

[0016] The figure shows a cross-section of the drinking bowl, where 1 is a container on legs, 2 are side walls, 3 are holes for the outlet of the nipple part of the bottles, 4 is a support for the bottles.

[0017] The goat feeding bowl is used as follows. Separately prepared feed mixture is poured into feeding bottles at a temperature of 37.0-38.0°C. The bottles are then placed on support 4, which ensures a 30° tilt for the bottles being inserted, and the nipples of the feeding bottles are inserted into the holes 3, which are angled at 30°. The goat feeding bowl is now ready for use.

Claims

A drinking bowl for feeding kids, comprising a drinking container with side sides, mounted on legs, on the side sides of which there are openings for the outlet of the nipple part of the bottles with food, and in the central part of the drinking bowl there are supports that provide an inclination of 30° for the bottles placed inside, the container is made in the form of half a horizontal pipe, and as supports for the bottles there are two horizontal plates connected at an angle of 120° and resting on the ends of the latter, characterized in that the openings for the outlet of the nipple part of the bottles with food are made at an angle of 30°.
