RU42931U1 - MOBILE BUNKER FEEDER FOR FEEDING LAMBS WITH CONCENTRATED FODDER ON PASTRY - Google Patents

Abstract

The utility model relates to agriculture and can be used as a mobile bunker self-feeder for feeding lambs with concentrated feed in the pasture. The technical result boils down to simplifying the design, the possibility of using it in any pasture enclosure, and reducing operating costs. The mobile hopper self-feeder is a hopper 1 with a cover 2, equipped with double-sided feed troughs 3 for concentrates, end gutters 4 for mineral additives, and an activator 5 to prevent concentrated feed from hanging in the hopper and to ensure constant filling of the gutters 3. All gutters are equipped with protective visors 7 To move the feeder along the pasture corrals, it is mounted on runners 6.

Description

The utility model relates to agriculture, in particular to sheep breeding, and can be used as a mobile bunker self-feeding machine for feeding lambs with concentrated feed on pastures.

BACKGROUND

A calf feeder is known, including a housing with a hopper and a tray for bulk feed with a separation grill and an external protrusion. The feeder is equipped with a visor with an axis, through which it is mounted on the housing obliquely above the tray with the possibility of free deflection up. The housing is equipped with stops for a visor, which is made with a width greater than the width of the outer ledge of the tray (see A.S. RF No. 2045174, class A 01 K class 5/00).

The disadvantages of this feeder are:

- design complexity;

- the inability to use in open areas and bases;

- high operating costs when feeding animals. Known animal feeder, including trays, hopper with

gratings and a device for tipping trays in order to clean them from gouging (see AS USSR No. 1514284 A 1 K 5/00).

The disadvantages of this design are:

- design complexity;

- high operating costs compared with the effectiveness of its application.

Known feeder containing a frame on which is mounted a hopper having an upper trough, designed to collect the spread of feed, connected to the lid using the rocker mechanism, and with the frame - by means of a spring (see AS USSR No. 1655404 AI, class. A 01 K 5/00).

The disadvantages of this feeder are:

- design complexity;

- low reliability of the product due to a significant number of kinematic links;

- high operating costs due to the need for periodic and shift maintenance of a large number of kinematic pairs and sliding friction units (backstage).

The closest in technical essence and the achieved positive effect and adopted by the authors for the prototype is a feeder for bulk feed (see A.S. of the Russian Federation No. 2045174 class A 01 K 5/00), including a housing with a hopper in the upper part and with a feed tray - in the lower part of the body, which is stiffened by transverse trims. In this case, the feed tray with a slope passing into the lower capacity of the feed tray, divided

on individual sections by transverse stops. The hull is equipped with a diaphragm, which contributes to the uniform filling of the feed tank, and the hinged visor, mounted movably on the hull with the help of loops, rests on the stops and has rubberized edges.

The main disadvantages of this feeder are:

- design complexity;

- inability to use on pastures;

- high operating costs when feeding animals. DISCLOSURE OF A USEFUL MODEL

The technical result that can be achieved using the proposed utility model is to simplify the design, the possibility of using it in any pasture enclosure, and reduce operating costs.

The technical result is achieved using a mobile bunker self-feeder for lambs when feeding them with concentrated feed on the pasture. The mobile feeder is made in the form of a mobile hopper with double-sided channels and separate end channels for mineral additives, and the hopper is equipped with a manual activator for optimal concentrate entry into the feed channels.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

In FIG. a mobile bunker self-feeder for feeding lambs with concentrated feed to the pasture is presented, general view.

IMPLEMENTATION OF A USEFUL MODEL

The mobile hopper self-feeder (Fig.) Is a hopper 1 with a cover 2, equipped with two-side feed chutes 3 for concentrates and end chutes 4 for mineral additives, as well as an activator 5 to prevent concentrated feed from hanging in the hopper and to ensure constant filling of the chutes 3. All chutes equipped with protective visors 7. To move the feeder along the pasture corrals, it is mounted on runners 6.

Mobile hopper self-feeding works as follows. Concentrated feed is manually loaded into the hopper 1, the lid 2 is closed to prevent precipitation from entering it, the vehicle is moved on skids 6 individually or in a train along the pasture corners, a mineral additive is added - salt, chalk into the end gutters 4 using the activator 5 fill the feed gutters 3 , after which the feeder is ready for operation, and the visors 7 protect the gutters from rainfall. The advantage of the proposed self-feeder compared to existing technical solutions are: simplification of the design, the possibility of its use on pastures, reducing operating costs.

Claims (1)

A mobile bunker self-feeder for feeding lambs with concentrated forages on a pasture, including a hopper for concentrates, two-sided feed troughs and visors, characterized in that it is equipped with end gutters for a mineral additive and mounted on skids, and the hopper has an activator that ensures guaranteed constant flow of concentrates into the feed gutters.
