Description

1 TARIFF Innovation in Plastic Pet Watering Trough Plumbing Connections TECHNICAL FIELD The invention connects water troughs to water pipes in livestock farms and barns. The water inlet connection elements that provide water supply are placed in the water trough body during the production phase and Multiple water inlet lines (plumbing inlets) and valve connections are integrated into a single metal structure. By gathering the water trough and plumbing connection elements on the plumbing element (TE), the user 10 plastic animal waterers that can be assembled together without requiring any intervention. It is related. STATE OF THE ART Today, animal watering troughs used in farms and barns where livestock is raised are generally... the water reservoir into which water is collected and the plumbing that provides water entry into this reservoir 15 a one-piece plastic structure to which the valve controlling the connection and water flow is connected The product consists of a body. The body has the connection points for the water pipes and the valve. There are rounded openings, and metal fittings are connected to these openings. These metal fittings, The mounting slots created on the body after production are installed by the user. It is assembled by rotating and tightening. 20 In existing watering trough designs, the metal connector is later attached to the plastic body by the user. due to being assembled by tightening, and the torque applied during assembly being uncontrolled. problems such as deformation, hairline crack formation and wear in plastic body material This is the reason. Overtightened fittings by the user can cause problems with the water supply connection in the long run. This leads to a loss of sealing in the body. On the other hand, 25 of the cattle pressure on plumbing pipes through head or neck movements during contact with the watering can The application adjusts the seating position of the existing metal fittings inside the housing. It can damage the waterer as a result of the fitting loosening, moving, or separating from the body. Leaks can occur. As explained above, in current practices there are three different 30s on the watering trough body. Because three independent / separate nuts are used in the socket, users can install the system. If they overtighten during this stage, the nuts inside will rotate because the product is plastic. This leads to leakage problems. A different approach... The problem is that even if users connect the plumbing properly, the livestock still drink the water. Because they attracted a lot of attention with their plumbing pipes, they constantly touched the pipes with their horns and bodies. 35 2 They move it around so the nut inside the water bottle moves again and it doesn't leak again. problems are emerging. Current techniques prevent these connection problems by ensuring the fitting is free from user error. eliminating the risks of connected assembly or protecting the fitting from animal contact from the body No structural or integrated solutions have been provided to prevent its separation. Therefore, watering trough 5 Their bodies require frequent maintenance throughout their service life and sometimes become completely worn out. It has to be changed. This situation is both important for livestock businesses. This leads to economic losses as well as increased water consumption and maintenance costs. THE PURPOSE OF THE INVENTION The present invention meets the aforementioned requirements while eliminating all disadvantages. This relates to plastic pet water troughs, which offer some additional advantages. The main purpose of the invention is to address the problems encountered in existing water troughs made of plastic and similar materials. User-caused incorrect assembly, plastic body deformation due to overtightening, water damage. technical issues such as leaks and displacement of plumbing connections due to animal contact. The goal is to resolve the problems. Another objective of the invention is to integrate two plumbing inlets and a valve inlet into a single metal plumbing element. By joining the element (in a T-shape or equivalent configuration) to produce the watering trough. The connection between the plumbing and valve is made by integrating it into the plastic housing during this stage. The aim is to eliminate the need for the user to attach components to the water bottle body afterwards. 20 This eliminates existing assembly errors and associated sealing problems. will have been removed. Another purpose of the invention is to prevent leaks during production between the water trough body and the metal plumbing element. By minimizing the possibility of water leakage thanks to the rigid and leak-proof structural integrity provided, to increase the lifespan of the watering trough and to prevent 25% of the damage that can occur as a result of physical contact between animals. The goal is to prevent problems such as loosening, twisting, or dislocation. Another aim of the invention is to reduce maintenance costs and water usage in livestock farms. The aim is to prevent waste and ensure the long-term and reliable use of water troughs.
