Referring to FIG. 2 at the same time in order to explain the internal shape of the chamber 20 in detail, the upper openings of the interior of the chamber 20 have two sides facing each other, and a pair of wide surfaces among the two sides. Extend downward to have an inclined portion, and the remaining pair of narrow surfaces extend to have a predetermined portion to form the interior of the chamber 20.

Although not shown in the drawings, as another example of the internal shape of the chamber 20, the upper opening of the chamber 20 is formed in a hopper shape (not shown) formed to have an inclined portion as it proceeds downward from each of two pairs of faces facing each other. It may be made to have an internal shape. Thus having the inclined portion in the chamber 20 has an easy effect when cleaning.

In general, since the chamber 20 of the water supply device 10 is configured in such a manner that the upper part is opened and the livestock can ingest water, the upper part is always opened, so that algae or moss may grow by photosynthesis. In addition, foreign matters may be introduced into the chamber 20. As such, since the inside of the chamber 20 needs to be periodically cleaned and a structure that can be easily cleaned, the inside of the chamber 20 is preferably configured to have an inclined portion.

In addition, at least the inside of the chamber 20 is formed of a material in which sludge (microorganism) does not adhere well and moss is not easily generated.

Unlike the present embodiment, the chamber 20 may be manufactured in a separate type.

That is, the chamber 20 of the present embodiment has a container body having a downward inclination and a body part forming the outer shape by enclosing the container part as a single type, but may be formed by separating the container part and the body part. In the case of manufacturing the chamber 20 in such a separate type, the installation is simple, and at the same time, the cleaning has an easy effect.

The chamber 20 may further include a leg coupling member 100 formed integrally with the lower portion.

1 and 2 at the same time, the leg coupling member 100 is a lower column connected to form a ball flanger and the upper pillar 114 and the upper pillar 114 located in the coupling portion with the chamber 20. It consists of 110. In addition, the leg coupling member 100 may further comprise a coupling means so that the chamber 20 and the upper pillar 114 can be coupled.

The upper column 114 is formed to have at least one hole 115 to be connected to the ball flanger of the lower column 110, the lower column 110 has at least one ball-plunger coupling protrusion (not shown) It is preferable that it is formed. Since the upper column 114 and the lower column 110 is formed in this way, the height of the chamber 20 can be freely adjusted, so that the breeding can be made according to the type or growth stage of the livestock.

The coupling means of the leg coupling member 100 and the chamber 20 may be screwed by a screw (not shown) to take a known coupling scheme or as shown in the figure.

Referring to Figure 1, the lower portion of the chamber 20 is formed with a water supply pipe 28 for introducing water, the water supply pipe 28 and the floating valve 60 to detect the level of the stored water Are connected.

Floating valve 60 is preferably manufactured using a known valve, using a noise-free valve so that domestic animals ingesting water are not surprised.

Unlike the illustrated example, the floating valve 60 may be replaced with a known water level proximity sensor capable of sensing the water level.

With continued reference to FIG. 1, the chamber 20 is provided with a heater 80 capable of heating water in at least one region of the lower portion, and the heater 80 is capable of heating the water flowing from the water supply pipe 28. It may be made in the form of wrapping the water supply pipe (28) to be able.

The mounting position of the heater 80 is suitably the lower part of the chamber 20 because it is more efficient to mount it to the bottom based on the principle of convection of water.

Referring to FIG. 3, the heater 80 is connected to the power supply unit 120, and the power supply unit 120 has a power saving timer 122.

The power saving timer 122 is preferably formed by manually setting a power supply time in advance and supplying or shutting off electricity by the set timer.

Therefore, the control unit 120 of the present embodiment is made of a manual type rather than an automatic control method. In another embodiment, although not shown in the drawing, the temperature sensor may be attached to the chamber 20 to control the heater 80 in an automatic control method.

Considering the initial cost of equipment and power maintenance costs of the water supply device 10, a control method by a power saving timer is preferable.

Referring again to FIG. 1, a pair of partition walls 40 are formed to communicate and detach from each other while being supported by a chamber while surrounding the heater 80 and the floating valve 60 described above.

The partition wall 40 is installed in order to prevent the tongue of a livestock ingesting water from directly contacting the heater 80 and damaging the floating valve 60, and the water separated and stored by the partition wall 40 communicates with each other. And, the partition 40 is preferably formed to be detachable. In addition, the chamber 20 and the partition wall 40 may be coupled in a detachable screwing manner. That is, it has a hole for inserting the screw 41 on both wings of the partition wall 40, it is formed to have a hole 42 that can be screwed in the upper opening of the chamber (20).

Although not shown in the drawings, in another embodiment of the partition wall, the pair of partition walls may be formed with at least one or more holes, thereby facilitating the flow of stored water. In this case, the size of the hole is preferably formed as a hole of a small size to protect the tongue of the animal.

The chamber 20 may be formed so that the heat insulating material 39 is wrapped around the cross section forming the inner space 25 to keep the water stored.

The heat insulating material 39 may be formed by selecting at least one of a foamable urethane resin, a styrofoam, a foamable polystyrene insulation, a glass-based insulation containing an air layer, a foamed polyethylene insulation, and a pearlite insulation.

The heat insulator 39 has a buffering effect on the change in the water temperature, and has an effect of reducing the power ratio when the heater is operated.

In another embodiment of the heat insulator 39, the main body constituting the outer shape of the chamber 20 may be configured as a double wall to embed the heat insulator inside the double wall. In this case, the heat insulation effect is higher than the heat insulation effect when only the interface of the interior of the chamber 20 is insulated, but there is a problem that the initial cost increases because the amount of the insulation is increased.

FIG. 2 is a cutaway perspective view of a side portion of the livestock feeder according to the embodiment of FIG. 1, and FIG. 2 is a view not including a partition wall.

3 is a side cutaway perspective view of the livestock feeder according to the embodiment of FIG. 1 that does not overlap with the direction of FIG.
