RU95966U1 - DEVICE FOR GROWING AND ANIMAL-FEEDING HYDROPONIC FEED - Google Patents

Abstract

A device for growing and feeding animals with hydroponic feed, containing a closed vertical conveyor located in a transparent material room with a drive mechanism, equipped with feeding trays, closed nets, suspended on it by means of hinges and hangers, as well as seeding devices, a container for a nutrient solution with a tube - a distributor and a lighting system, while the meshes have a mesh size sufficient for the passage of grass overgrowth, but insufficient for the penetration of the head and limbs of the animal through them, characterized in that it includes a heating and ventilation unit placed inside the room made of transparent material, and the bottom of the trays -the feeder is made with a bactericidal coating containing metal nanoparticles.

Description

The utility model relates to agriculture, namely, means for growing and feeding animals hydroponic feed.

Known multi-tiered hydroponic installation for growing plants (GB Patent No. 2121263), in which the rack consists of sections with different tier distances, and irrigation of crops is carried out by sprinkling.

However, this device is not effective enough due to the high labor costs when feeding the feed and its low quality due to significant losses of vitamins and plant juice.

The closest in technical essence to the claimed technical solution is a device for growing and feeding animals hydroponic feed (USSR AS No. 1653655), containing a closed vertical conveyor and hinged feeders for growing hydroponic greens. There is a container for nutrient solution with a distribution tube, devices for sowing seeds, a lighting system, pendants for trays and a conveyor drive mechanism. Steel grids are provided above the trays with mesh sizes sufficient for the passage of growing grass and insufficient for the penetration of the head and limbs of animals. The device is placed in a room with transparent fences.

However, this device is not effective enough due to the low productivity due to the lack of a heating and ventilation system that allows you to maintain the required microclimate parameters in the room, as well as the lack of protection of the root system of plants from damage by pathogens.

The technical result of using the utility model is to increase efficiency by increasing productivity by providing the required microclimate parameters in the room, as well as protecting the root system of plants from damage by pathogens.

This is achieved by the fact that the device includes a heating and ventilation unit placed indoors from transparent material, and the bottom of the feeder trays is made with a bactericidal coating containing metal nanoparticles.

As a result of a search conducted in scientific, technical and patent literature, an identical technical solution was not found, which proves the technical solution meets the criterion of "novelty."

The proposed device contains a closed vertical conveyor 1 (Fig.) With a drive mechanism 2. The conveyor 1 is equipped with hinges 3 and pendants 4 suspended on it by feeding trays 5, closed with metal nets 6. The nets have mesh sizes sufficient for passage of growing grass and insufficient for the penetration of the head and limbs of animals. Sowing devices 7, a container 8 for nutrient solution with a distribution tube and a lighting system 9 are provided. To protect the root system of plants from damage by pathogens, the feeder trays 5 are made with a bactericidal coating containing metal nanoparticles. The device is housed in room 11 with transparent walling. To ensure the required microclimate parameters in room 11 there is a heating and ventilation unit 12.

The device operates as follows. As the vertical conveyor 1 rotates, the feeder trays are alternately refueled with 5 seeds from the sowing devices 7 and nutrient solution 8. Moreover, the bactericidal coating containing metal nanoparticles deposited on the bottom of the feeder trays 5 provides protection of the plant root system from damage by pathogens. The corresponding feeding trough is refueled daily 5. The required microclimate parameters are provided by the heating and ventilation unit 12. The lighting system 9 contributes to the growth of grass. When the grass in tray 5 grows up, completing the growing season, conveyor 1 lowers it down, and the animals eat the daily rate of greenery on the vine. The feeder trays 5 are closed by grids 6, which have mesh sizes sufficient for the passage of growing grass and insufficient for the penetration of the head and limbs of animals, as a result of which the plant roots are not damaged, and the solution is not lost. The number of feeder trays 5 is given in accordance with the number of days of the vegetation cycle of plants, which makes it possible to provide animals with hydroponic food daily.

The application of the proposed device can increase productivity.
