Description

[0001] APPARATUS FOR SUPPLYING FIXED QUANTITY FOOD [0002]

The present invention relates to an automatic feeding device for feed quantity, and more particularly, to an automatic feeding device for feeding a fixed amount of feed to a livestock in a more precise and accurate manner.

Generally, livestock such as pigs, cows, dogs, etc. differ in the amount of feed consumed by each individual, and the amount of feed varies depending on the growth period, such as physique conditions and body weight, and an appropriate amount of feed is fed correspondingly. In particular, the amount of dietary feed varies considerably in the case of pigs depending on the initial or middle pregnancy period, terminal period, pre / post, non - lactation period, non - lactation period, and pregnancy waiting period. Thus, by controlling the weight by age, mountain discrimination, and pregnancy period, it is possible to produce a lot of healthy piglets. For this purpose, an appropriate amount of feed and drinking water are artificially controlled.

Conventional prior art feed devices include a method of scraping feed accumulated on a flat plate with a scraper to fall into a feed support, or a method of feeding and feeding along a screw. However, feeding and feeding amounts of feed are uneven and inefficient.

As a prior art for solving such a problem, Korean Patent Application Publication No. 10-2014-0090350 (filed on Jan. 07, 2013 and published on Jul. 17, 2014 (Hereinafter referred to as "prior art").

In the prior art, there is provided a feed device for feeding feed and drinking water, which feeds the feed stored in the feed storage container to the feed hopper through a lower feed feed pipe, wherein a door is coupled to a lower outlet of the feed hopper, And feeding means for feeding the feed to the feeding hopper by limitingly discharging the feed in a fixed amount by interval while being rotated by a driving means on the side other than the modified cup 24.

However, the above-described prior art is expected to have the following problems.

First, a conventional measuring cup is toothed as made of rigid metal or plastics material big seen from the feed gang sandwiched between the path portion of the lower cap and the measuring cup is the motor load caught fault cause the motor or not the normal operation of the motor The feed amount is irregular or the feed is bridged and the motor can not feed the correct amount of feed by idling , resulting in a great loss in the productivity of the livestock.

In other words, the automatic feeding device feeds the amount of feed to the program at a certain time of day, so that the livestock must eat that amount. This is because the number of revolutions of the motor is calculated by the time of electricity sent to the motor, The amount of feed to be used is measured to set the feed-benefit program.

For example, if the electric signal of the motor is given to the controller for a specified period of time, if the feed dog is inserted between the weighing cup and the passageway of the lower cap and the motor is not driven, the controller recognizes that the feed is normally supplied, .

In such a case, the feed is not supplied until the manager knows the problem, and the livestock eventually suffers from productivity such as starvation. Because of this problem, the manager must perform maintenance and inspection work periodically, There is a problem that wastes manpower.

Secondly, since the internal space of the feed reservoir of the conventional feed dosing device can not be equipped with a separate structure capable of mixing feeds, the feed is not easily discharged due to moisture or other factors.

In addition, in many cases, moisture or the like is introduced into the feed reservoir through the outlet of the feed reservoir, so that the conventional feed reservoir can not prevent the coagulation of the feed due to the lack of moisture removal means.
