The conveying module comprises a feeding line motor 5 and a conveying line 10. The conveying line 10 is connected with a feeding port of the material tower of pigsty2. On the conveying line 10, a plurality of indoor feeding troughs 6 are arranged in turn. A material level sensor 9 is arranged on the indoor feeding trough 6 at the end far away from the unit feeding tower 2. When the feed reaches a high level, the main feeding tower motor is informed to stop running and the material level is lower than the low level sensor 9, The control module alarms to remind the staff to feed; the feeder line motor 5 is set between the material tower of pigsty 2 and the first indoor feeding trough 6. A load cell 4 is installed at the bottom of the material tower of pigsty 2. One end of the weighing module 8 is connected with the load cell 4, and the other end is connected with the control module of material line 7. The load cell 4 is placed between the bottom of the material tower of pigsty 2 and the horizontal ground to measure the total weight of the material tower of pigsty 2 in real time and transmit the data to the single chip microcomputer of the weighing module 8,Real time measurement of feed in and out of tower.
The indoor feeding trough 6 is the destination of the feed transportation line 10 and the feed container for feeding livestock; the tower feed sensor 1, blanking switch 3, material line motor 5 and material level sensor 9 are all connected with control module of material line 7.
The indoor feeding trough 6 is responsible for the mechanical conveying of feed; the conveying line 10 is a plug plate or a auger type feeding device; weighing module 8 is composed of single chip microcomputer system, digital to analog conversion circuit and power management circuit, which is responsible for weighing the whole weight of feed tower and feed in real time.
The control module of material line 7 starts the feed line motor 5 regularly according to the program set in the module to carry out feed conveying; the level sensor 9 is installed at a fixed position on the last indoor feeding trough 6 on the travel of the conveying line 10 in the barn. When the conveying line 10 starts to convey feed, each indoor feeding trough 6 is filled in turn until the feed in the last indoor bin 6 reaches the set position, the level sensor 9 is triggered, and then the discharge port of the material tower of pigsty 2 is closed; the conveying line 10 will continue to run for a period of time, and the feed remaining in the feeding pipe will automatically stop running after it enters the last indoor feeding trough 6.The position of the level sensor 9 on the last indoor bin 6 and the continuous operation time of the conveying line 10 after the discharge port of the material tower of pigsty 2 is closed are respectively set by the operator on the indoor feeding trough 6 and the control module of material line 7 due to the length of the 5 conveying line 10 and the capacity of the indoor feeding trough 6.
Weighing module 8 uses strain gauge pressure sensor, adopts four wire differential signal for analog transmission, then carries out digital to analog conversion through high-precision ADC module, and finally calculates the actual weight of material tower by algorithm.
The material line control module 7 is equipped with a plurality of AC contactors, which control the rotation of the material line motor 5 and the switch of the discharge port of the unit material tower 2 by controlling the closing of the AC contactor. The level sensor 9 of the end indoor feeding trough 6 is used to detect whether the feed in the end indoor feeding trough 6 is full, and to control the stop of the feed line; there are two 485 communication interfaces on the control module of material line 7. One is responsible for communicating with the weighing module 8 to obtain the weight information; the other is responsible for external communication, output system data and receive parameter settings.

When the motor is blocked and the motor current is abnormal, the alarm will be sent out and the motor will stop rotating, so as to protect the motor from being burned; the software system of control module of material line and material tower weighing module both support the feeding system of one material tower with multiple material lines, which helps to save the cost of the farm; the system is suitable for feeding materials from the main tower to several distributing towers.
Example: a 20 ton feeding tower is installed outside the fattening unit of a pig farm in Lu'an, Anhui Province. There are six pillars in the feeding tower to support the feeding tower. A 5-ton weighing sensor (model: dyx-0.32) is installed under each pillar, and the total range of the six weighing sensors is 30 tons. The six weighing sensors transmit the weight analog signal to the weighing equipment (model: gn-cz-j) through a four core signal line, and the weighing equipment calculates the weight of the remaining feed in the current feeding tower. There is a motor (model Srx120gu-uf, power 120W) in the shoe to open and close the feeding channel. At the same time, there are tubular inlets and outlets on the left and right sides of the shoe to connect a 60 mm diameter feeding line, a motor (model: ye2-100-4, power: 2.2kW) 1s used as the driving force to transport feed in the feed line. If the running speed of the feed line is
0.2m/s and the transport efficiency is 50%, the feed transport capacity in the feed line is about
0.425 cubic feed per minute. A level sensor (capacitive proximity switch, model lje-15na) is equipped at the end of the feed trough and feed line to detect whether the feed in the feed trough and feed line is full. When the feed line runs, the feed in the trough 1s filled in turn. When the last trough 1s full, the feed 1s close to the level sensor and the level sensor is triggered. Then the system will stop feeding immediately, and take the weight difference of the tower before and after feeding as the feed consumption, and accumulate it into the total consumption.
The basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention are shown and described above. Those skilled in the art should understand that the invention is not limited by the above specific embodiments, and the above specific embodiments and the description in the description are only for further explaining the principle of the invention. On the premise of not departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, there will be various changes and improvements in the invention, and these changes and improvements fall into the scope of the invention. The scope of the invention is determined by the claims and their equivalents definition.
