Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

  The present invention relates to an improvement of a pig feeder.

[0002]

[Prior art]

  Conventionally used pig feeders have a feed hook whose lower part is narrowed by an inclined plate. There is a food tank at the bottom of the par and the lower part of the feed hopper. The narrowed feeding slit is opened over the entire length, and the feeding slit is tilted. By opening and closing the open / close plate provided on the inner surface of the swash plate, the feed in the feed hopper is fed to the food tank. It is supposed to be dropped.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

  However, in the above conventional pig feeder, the opening / closing plate that opens and closes the feeding slit is thin. It is formed by an elastic plate, and this opening / closing plate is not fully opened with respect to the feeding slit. When it is in the state, its tip is exposed to the food tank side. Therefore, this opening If the lid is fully closed or half-opened, the pig will stick the exposed tip of its nose. If you try to force out the feed and this is done frequently, the plate will deform. However, the opening / closing operation for the feeding slit is hindered. Also, the feed is pelletized In the case of stuff, the tip of the opening and closing plate is always in contact with the lower end of the feed hopper each time it is closed. It's best to keep the pellet closed, leaving a slit in the feeding slit to keep it fully closed. It can be difficult and often the pellets are crushed. Also, this pele Fragmentation also occurs with frequent pressing of the tip of the nose against the opening and closing plate in the half-opened state It is a thing. Therefore, this feeder is not suitable for feeding pelleted feed .

[0004]   The present invention does not cause the deformation of the opening / closing plate, and the smooth opening / closing operation of the opening / closing plate enables the feeding Optimal for feeding pellet-shaped feed by ensuring that the mouth opening is adjusted and fully closed. The purpose is to obtain a food feeder.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

  The present invention that achieves the above-mentioned object is to provide a narrowed opening over the entire width of the lower end by an inclined wall. A feed hopper having a slit for feeding, a food tank provided below the feed hopper, and a feed A pig feeder having an opening / closing plate for opening and closing a slit for feeding, comprising: The bottom of the slanted wall is closed by opening the feeding port instead of the feeding slit. The opening / closing plate is formed of a rigid plate, and the rigid opening / closing plate is inclined with respect to the feeding port. It is slidable in the direction of opening and closing along the opening, and the opening of the feeding opening is made by the rigid opening and closing plate. The feeding amount is controlled by adjusting the amount in the vertical direction.

[0006]

[Example of device]

  The present invention will be described below based on the illustrated embodiments.   The feed hopper 11 and the food tank 12 below the feed hopper 11 are integrated by the left and right side plates 13. A plurality of partition plates 14 are passed and fixed between the side edges of the upper part of the food tank 12. There is. The feed hopper 11 includes an upper part of the left and right side plates 13, a back plate 15 and this back plate. It is composed of an inclined wall 16 that inclines toward the lower part of It is squeezed toward the bottom, and its lower end is closed. Also, this feed hopper 1 In order to reinforce one, a plurality of reinforcing bars are provided between the upper back plate 15 and the inclined wall 16. 17 is fixed.

[0007]   At the lower position of the feed hopper 11, the lower end of the inclined wall 16 is cut out in a half-moon shape. The bait mouth 20 is formed. This feeding port 20 faces the feeding tank 12 and feeds The feed in the hopper 11 is dropped into the food tank 12. The feeding port 20 is this fruit In the example, two upper half-moon shaped ones are installed side by side, but the feed tank 12 is fully opened. Other shapes can be used as long as the shape can be dropped sufficiently, Alternatively, it may be three or more. On the narrowed bottom of the feed hopper 11, An angled bottom wall 21 is provided on both sides of the, and a mountain-shaped bottom wall 22 is provided between each feeding port 20. this The sloped bottom wall 21 and the mountain-shaped bottom wall 22 have their slopes directed toward the feeding port 20. It serves to collect food in this feeding port 20.

[0008]   On the inner surface of the inclined wall 16 of the feed hopper 11, an opening / closing plate 24 for opening / closing the feeding port 20 is provided. It is slidably arranged along the inclination. This opening / closing plate 24 is used for the feeding port 2 Open and close the 0 opening in the height direction to adjust the opening amount. A notch 28 having the same shape as the outer shape of the chevron-shaped bottom wall 22 is provided at a position corresponding to the wall 22, Both sides thereof are supported by slide guides 25 fixed to the inclined wall 16. this The open / close plate 24 is made of a rigid material that does not deform even if the pig is frequently poking at its tip. To be Further, an operation bar 26 is supported by a support guide 27 at the center of the upper part of the opening / closing plate 24. Is supported. Therefore, the opening / closing plate 24 moves the operation bar 26 in the vertical direction. The feeding port 20 is opened and closed by the dynamic operation. Opening and closing the opening of the feeding port 20 This is possible by changing the slide position of the plate 24.

[0009]   In the pig feeder of the above construction, the feeding port 20 is closed by the opening / closing plate 24. The feed hopper 11 with feed, and the operation bar 26 is tilted on the inclined wall 16. When the pulling operation is performed upward along the direction, the opening / closing plate 24 is supported by the slide guide 25. While moving upward, the feeding port 20 is opened. Now, the feed is fed from the feeding port 20 to the feed tank. It falls within 12. At this time, the feed in the feed hopper 11 is the same as the inclined bottom wall 21. The mountain-shaped bottom wall 22 flows toward the feeding port 20 and collects at this feeding port 20. To be When the food tank 12 is supplied with an appropriate amount of feed, the operation bar 26 is pushed. When lowered, the opening / closing plate 24 closes the feeding port 20 so as to cut it from the upper side, and the feeding after that is performed. The feed supply from the feeding port 20 is cut off. Therefore, the feed is in pellet form However, this is no longer caught between the tip of the opening / closing plate 24 and the feeding port 20, The closed state is maintained and the pellet does not fracture. Also, opening and closing like this Even if pigs frequently pluck the plate 24 with its nose, the opening / closing plate 24 is deformed due to its rigidity. Therefore, the opening / closing operation can be smoothly performed.

[0010]   To control the amount of feed supplied from the feeding port 20, the slide position of the opening / closing plate 24 is changed appropriately. However, it can be easily performed by adjusting the opening amount of the feeding port 20.   In the above embodiment, the opening / closing plate 24 is provided on the inner surface of the inclined wall 16. It can also be provided on the outer surface of 6, ie outside the feed hopper 11. in this case, A slide guide 25 that supports the opening / closing plate 24 is also fixed to the outer surface of the inclined wall 16.

[0011]

[Effect of device]

  As described above, the present invention closes the lower end opening of the feed hopper and then The lower part of the inclined wall that constitutes the food hopper is provided with a feeding port, and this feeding port is opened and closed. After making the plate rigid, it was slidable in the direction along the slope of the inclined wall. Then, the opening / closing plate is closed so that the feeding port is cut from above by the closing operation. Therefore, Even if the feed is in the shape of a dog, there is no gap between the feed and the feed, and the fully closed condition is maintained. Not only can it be held, but it can withstand the frequent poking of pigs, preventing deformation, The opening and closing operation of the opening and closing plate can be done smoothly. Furthermore, change the slide position of the opening and closing plate By doing so, the opening of the feeding opening can be adjusted, and the amount of feed supplied from the feeding opening can be controlled to the required amount. It also becomes possible.
