Abstract

FIELD: agricultural engineering. SUBSTANCE: device comprises pipeline connected to bowls with pipe unions, vacuum and float regulators of liquid level in bowls, connected by a pipeline via a common container, an air bypass pipe of vacuum regulator, adjustable for height. Each bowl union has an inside diameter of 8-10 mm and protrudes above bottom for 15-20 mm so as to maintain a liquid level in bowls at 5-70 mm by means of float or vacuum regulators. Bowls are installed on decks lifted 200-220 mm above the floor. EFFECT: improved design. 1 dwg

Description

 The device relates to agriculture and can be used in pig farming.

 A device for drinking and feeding animals is known, comprising a pipeline with bowls, vacuum and float level controllers in the bowls, which are connected by a pipeline with a common capacity for them, there is a pipe for bypassing the air of the vacuum regulator with the ability to move at a height. The vacuum regulator has a sealed tank connected to the tank with a pipe blocked by a tap, and the upper part of the tank is connected through a hose with a tap to an air bypass pipe, the free end of which is lowered to a certain depth in the tank.

 The float regulator is made in the form of a valve connected to the float installed in the drain hole of the water pipe connected to the tank by a tap. In the tank is an electric heating element with an automatic temperature controller.

 The main disadvantages of this device are the inability to use it for weaned piglets of different ages during the rearing period, water loss and insufficient reliability due to clogging of the liquid supply system to the bowls.

 The aim of the invention is to obtain the possibility of drinking and feeding piglets, weaners of different ages during the rearing period, increasing reliability and saving water and feed.

 This goal is achieved by the fact that the proposed device for drinking and feeding piglets, weaners, which contains a pipe connected to the nozzles of the cups, the nozzles have a small inlet section of the holes (8. ... 10 mm) and protrude above the bottoms of the bowls by 15.. . 20 mm.

 The liquid level in the bowls is maintained by float and vacuum regulators at the level of 50.. . 70 mm. The small inlet section of the nozzles is selected based on the complete supply of piglets with liquid during drinking and feeding and prevents clogging of the fluid supply system to the bowls. To ensure a free approach, piglets of different ages bowls are installed on platforms raised to a height of 200-220 mm.

 The drawing shows the proposed device.

 The device comprises a pipeline 1, cups 2, a container 3, a float regulator, a sealed reservoir 4 of a vacuum level regulator, a pipe 5 with a tap 6 for closing the reservoir 4, a hose 7 connecting the top of the reservoir with an air bypass pipe 8, a float 9 with a valve 10 , a water pipe 11 with a valve 22 for supplying water to the tank 3 of the float regulator, a heating element 13 with an automatic temperature controller 14, a valve 15 for draining the liquid from the pipeline 1, a pipe 16 of the bowl 2, a platform 17 for the animals to approach, on which and the bowl 2.

 The device operates as follows.

 To feed the animals with liquid feeds, for example, the crane 6 is opened with whey, and the feed from the tank through the pipe 5 enters the tank 3 and then through the pipe 1 to the bowls 2. When the level of liquid feed in the bowls 2 and in the tank 3 rises so that the free end Since the tube 8 is immersed in liquid feed, a vacuum is created in the upper part of the reservoir 4 that is freed from the feed and the flow of feed stops.

 To water animals with water, the tap 6 is closed, and the valve 12 is opened, and water from the water pipe 11 enters the tank 3 and then through the pipe 1, bowl 2. The water level in the bowls is regulated by a float 9 with valve 10.

 The liquid feed level can be adjusted by moving along the height of the tube 8.

 The small cross-section of the nozzles at the bowls and their protrusion above the bottom of the bowls, the presence of platforms raised above the floor, eliminates their clogging, makes it possible to economically consume water and feed for weaned pigs of different ages.
