Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Application of the Invention) The present invention relates to a feeder suitably used for block feed for birds.

(Background of the invention) Conventionally, wild birds were fed by placing loose feed in boxes or dishes, but this method had the disadvantage that it was susceptible to the effects of rain and wind.

Therefore, as a new feed that does not have such problems, feed solidified into blocks has been developed and provided.

By the way, even when such block-shaped feed is used, there is a problem in that if it is simply placed on the ground and fed, the block feed becomes dirty with rainwater and the feeding efficiency is extremely poor. However, there was a problem in that large wild birds came and it was not possible to feed the targeted small birds. In both cases, there was also the problem that the ground became extremely dirty.

(Purpose of the invention) The present invention was made in view of the above points, and its purpose is to provide a feeder that has excellent feeding efficiency and can feed the target small birds without polluting the ground. It's there to do.

(Summary of the invention) The characteristics of the feeding device according to the invention, which was made to achieve the above object, are that a slightly raised circumferential flange protrusion is provided on the periphery of the disc, and a flange protrusion that forms a feeding surface is provided. At the center of the upper surface of the disk, there is formed an upper protrusion into which the block feed for birds is fitted and placed, and at the center of the lower surface of the disk there is a support hole into which a support rod, etc. can be fixedly inserted and assembled. A block is formed, and a plurality of rods are provided radially outward from the periphery of the disk.

Since the disc in the above configuration is used for small birds, it usually has a diameter of about 10 to 15 cm.

The block feed to be applied to the feeder of the present invention may be obtained by, for example, mixing granular feed for birds with a small amount of heated aqueous sugar solution and pressurizing the mixture. In addition, this block feed contains
To ensure that it is placed stably in the designated place on the feeder,
It is preferable to provide a hole that fits into the upper projection of the feeder.

The flange protrusion on the circumference of the disk in the above configuration is
A rod that serves as a perch for small birds and extends radially outward from the periphery in a radial cross shape functions as a twig for guiding small birds. The mounting block provided on the lower surface of the disk has a support hole for being supported by a tree branch or a support rod prepared in advance, and is relatively heavy in order to stabilize the feeding device's posture. It is better to

(Embodiments of the invention) The invention will be described below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

In the figure, 1 is a disk serving as a feeding plate;
A slightly elevated circumferential flange 2 is formed on its periphery. This circumferential flange functions to prevent spillage of perch and bait.

Reference numeral 3 denotes stop bars extending radially from the peripheral edge of the disk, and in this example, four stop bars are provided.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a projection at the center of the upper surface 1a forming the feeding surface of the disk, and is adapted to fixedly support a block feed having the shape shown in the figure in the shape of a truncated cone by fitting into a hole 6a at the bottom thereof.

In addition, an L-shaped hole is provided at the lower corner of the flange on the periphery of the disc to drain water, and in some cases, a hanging string may be attached to hang the feeder from a tree, etc. It is used for convenience. Hanging strings like this also have the effect of hindering the approach of large wild birds.

Reference numeral 5 denotes a mounting block integrally formed at the center of the lower surface 1b of the disk, and in this example, a support hole 5a of a constant depth is formed in the lower part of the cylindrical shape.

According to such a configuration, the effect of desirably increasing the feeding efficiency of block feed for birds can be obtained.

(Effects of the invention) According to the invention, it is possible to feed wild birds, especially small birds, efficiently and without being disturbed by large wild birds, and the practical benefits thereof are extremely large. be.
