Description
La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif distributeur-doseur rotatif disposé au dessous d'une capacité de stockage et destiné à assurer un débit contrôlé de produit à distribuer. The present invention relates to a rotary dispenser-dispenser device disposed below a storage capacity and intended to ensure a controlled flow of product to be dispensed.
Ce dispositif est plus particulièrement appliqué à la distribution de nourriture pour l'alimentation des chevaux et, notamment, pour la distribution d'avoine aplatie dans les stalles d'écurie. This device is more particularly applied to the distribution of food for the feeding of horses and, in particular, for the distribution of flattened oats in the stable stalls.
Le dispositif distributeur-doseur selon l'invention convient également plus particulièrement à la distribution d'avoine dans les écuries comportant un alignement de stalles individuelles pour les chevaux. The dispenser-dispenser device according to the invention is also more particularly suitable for distributing oats in stables comprising an alignment of individual stalls for horses.
Le dispositif distributeur-doseur selon l'invention se caractérise en ce qu'il comprend un récipient ou boisseau, rotatif, muni d'une fente par laquelle on introduit, puis on libère, une quantité donnée de nourriture par demi-rotation du récipient. The dispenser-dispenser device according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises a container or plug, rotating, provided with a slot through which a given quantity of food is introduced and then released by half-rotation of the container.
Le dispositif distributeur-doseur selon l'invention peut être rendu tributaire d'un ensemble de commande permettant d'envisager la distribution d'une-guantité ou de quantités successives de nourriture pour constituer, à un déclenchement horloge, une quantité globale de nourriture, dans une auge de stalle. The dispenser-dispenser device according to the invention can be made dependent on a control assembly making it possible to envisage the distribution of a quantity or successive quantities of food to constitute, at a clock trigger, an overall quantity of food, in a stall trough.
Cette caractéristique de l'invention apporte un avantage certain dans la distribution de nourriture à des heures très matinales, comme tout au long de la åour- née et suivant des quantités variables à chaque heure choisie. This characteristic of the invention provides a definite advantage in the distribution of food at very early hours, such as throughout the day and in variable quantities at each chosen hour.
L'ensemble de commande du dispositif distributeur-doseur peut être mécanique, électro-mécanique et électronique. The control assembly of the dispenser-metering device can be mechanical, electro-mechanical and electronic.
La demi-rotation du boisseau du dispositif distributeur-doseur peut être commandée par un électroaimant sous la dépendance de l'ensemble de commande. The half-rotation of the valve of the dispenser-metering device can be controlled by an electromagnet depending on the control assembly.
Chaque distribution correspond à une séquence de fonctionnement comportant des périodes d'excitation de l'électro-aimant et des périodes de non-excitation de l'électro-aimant, la durée de ces périodes étant variable comme le rapport de ces durées. Each distribution corresponds to an operating sequence comprising periods of excitation of the electromagnet and periods of non-excitation of the electromagnet, the duration of these periods being variable as the ratio of these durations.
Pendant les périodes de non-excitation de l'électro-aimant, un moyen de rappel du boisseau dispose celui-ci dans sa position de remplissage, après une demirotation effectuée en sens inverse. During periods of non-excitation of the electromagnet, a means of returning the plug places it in its filling position, after a half-rotation carried out in the opposite direction.
lies périodes d'excitation, comme les périodes de non-excitation r peuvent être de plusieurs secondes ou minutes chacune. periods of excitation, such as periods of non-excitation r can be several seconds or minutes each.
Un index d'affichage permet d'afficher la quantité d'avoine à distribuer à l'heure choisie de distribution. A display index allows you to display the quantity of oats to be distributed at the chosen distribution time.

FIGS. 5 and 6 are views, respectively from the side and from the front, of the double device according to FIG. 4, this device being capable of an elevator-elevator movement on a frame allowing, on the one hand, to lower the device to the level of the contiguous troughs of two stalls and, on the other hand, to raise the distributor to an upper level of replenishment
FIG. 7 is a diagram of a control assembly of a solenoid-dispenser device according to the invention.
Dans la forme de réalisation représentée, un dispositif distributeur-doseur rotatif selon l'invention comprend, essentiellement, un récipient ou boisseau cylindrique (1) susceptible de tourner sur lui-meme autour dur un axe horizontal (2), ledit boisseau montrant une fente (3) qui peut être d'une dimension très variable en fonction de l'installation, cette fente s'ouvrant, soit vers le haut, sous une trémie (4) contenant de la nourriture à distribuer (plus spécialement de l'avoine aplatie), soit vers le bas, pour le déversement de la nourriture dans une goulotte (5) destinée à déboucher dans l'auge de la stalle. In the embodiment shown, a rotary dispenser-metering device according to the invention essentially comprises a cylindrical container or plug (1) capable of rotating on itself around a horizontal axis (2), said plug showing a slot (3) which can be of a very variable dimension depending on the installation, this slot opening, either upwards, under a hopper (4) containing food to be distributed (more particularly flattened oats ), or downwards, for the pouring of food into a chute (5) intended to open into the trough of the stall.
Ainsi, dans sa position haute, la fente (3) permet le remplissage du boisseau, et dans sa position basse, après un demi-tour du boisseau, elle permet le déversement du contenu du boisseau vers la goulotte (5). Thus, in its high position, the slot (3) allows the filling of the plug, and in its low position, after a half-turn of the plug, it allows the pouring of the contents of the plug towards the chute (5).
le demi-tour du boisseau est obtenu, avantageusement, à l'aide d'une bielle (6) pivotant autour dlun axe (7) et une chaîne (8) relie l'extrémité de cette bielle à un disque (9) solidaire de l'axe du boisseau. the half-turn of the plug is advantageously obtained using a connecting rod (6) pivoting about an axis (7) and a chain (8) connects the end of this connecting rod to a disc (9) integral with the axis of the bushel.
L'extrémité (6A) de la bielle montre un chanfrein et plus particulièrement une coupe à 450 permettant de réduire la course du moyen de commande de la bielle, qui est un électro-aimant (10). The end (6A) of the connecting rod shows a chamfer and more particularly a section at 450 making it possible to reduce the stroke of the control means of the connecting rod, which is an electromagnet (10).
Dans la forme de réalisation représentée à la figure 4, une trémie commune (4A) débouche sur au moins deux boisseaux rotatifs (1), lesquels débouchent, chacun, sur une goulotte différente (5). In the embodiment shown in Figure 4, a common hopper (4A) opens onto at least two rotary plugs (1), which each lead to a different chute (5).
les goulottes (5) sont prévues pour déverser la nourriture dans deux auges contiguës (A) de deux stalles individuelles (S) d'un alignement de stalles constituant une écurie (E) (figure 3). the chutes (5) are provided for pouring the food into two contiguous troughs (A) of two individual stalls (S) of a row of stalls constituting a stable (E) (Figure 3).
Le distributeur-doseur double, tel que représenté dans cette variante, est susceptible d'une mouvement ascenseur-descenseur sur un bâti vertical (11) permettant de descendre le dispositif au niveau des auges, comme de le remonter à un étage supérieur où la trémie (4A) peut être réapprovisionnée. Cette disposition est bien entendu applicable à un distributeur-doseur simple. The double metering distributor, as shown in this variant, is capable of an elevator-descender movement on a vertical frame (11) making it possible to lower the device to the level of the troughs, as to reassemble it to an upper stage where the hopper (4A) can be restocked. This provision is of course applicable to a simple metering dispenser.
Un moyen de blocage à levier (12) et excentrique (13) pivotant sur la trémie, permet le blocage du dispositif en un point quelconque de sa course sur le bâti (11). A locking means with lever (12) and eccentric (13) pivoting on the hopper, allows the blocking of the device at any point of its travel on the frame (11).
Les mouvements de montée et de descente du dispositif se font à l'aide d'un mécanisme à moufle (4) à ressort (15). The movements of raising and lowering of the device are made using a muffle mechanism (4) with spring (15).
Au cours des périodes de non-excitation de l'-électro-aimant (10), le boisseau est rappelé en position de remplissage par un mécanisme de rappel à ressort (16) relié par une chaîne (8A) à un disque (9A) solidaire de l'axe du boisseau, à l'instar de la chaîne (8) et du disque (9) précédemment décrits. During periods of non-excitation of the electromagnet (10), the plug is returned to the filling position by a spring return mechanism (16) connected by a chain (8A) to a disc (9A) secured to the axis of the plug, like the chain (8) and the disc (9) described above.
le nombre des déversements du contenu du boisseau, et donc des périodes d'excitation de l'électroaimant (10) qui se produisent au cours d'une séquence de fonctionnement déclenchée à une heure choisie, estfonc- tion de la quantité à distribuer affichée à l'aide d'un index (17) d'un ensemble de commande (18). the number of spills of the content of the bushel, and therefore of the periods of excitation of the electromagnet (10) which occur during an operating sequence triggered at a chosen time, is the function of the quantity to be dispensed displayed at using an index (17) of a control assembly (18).
Chaque déversement correspond à une quantité donnée de nourriture pouvant être égale, par exemple, au litre, à un multiple du litre, ou à un sous-multiple du litre, suivant la capacité du boisseau et suivant que ce boisseau peut être totalement ou partiellement rempli, d'où des dupées variables de remplissage et de déversement obtenues par temporisation de commande de l'électro-aimant et temporisation de contact et de contrôle des quantités à distribuer, de l'ensemble de commande (18). Each spill corresponds to a given quantity of food which may be equal, for example, to a liter, to a multiple of a liter, or to a submultiple of a liter, depending on the capacity of the bushel and depending on whether this bushel can be completely or partially filled , where variable filling and dumping tricked obtained by delay control of the electromagnet and contact delay and control of the quantities to be dispensed, of the control assembly (18).
De cette manière, au déclenchement horloge, qui peut également être affiché en (17), la quantité totale de nourriture est déversée en un certain nombre de déversements obtenus chacun après un demi-tour du boisseau, alternant avec des remplissages obtenus chacun après un demi-tour en sens inverse du boisseau. In this way, when the clock is triggered, which can also be displayed in (17), the total quantity of food is poured out in a certain number of spills, each obtained after a half-turn of the bushel, alternating with fillings obtained each after a half. -turn in opposite direction of the bushel.
L'invention est bien entendu applicable à l'ali mentation d'autres animaux que les chevaux. The invention is of course applicable to the feeding of animals other than horses.
I1 est bien entendu, enfin, que la présente invention n'a été décrite et représentée qu'à titre d'exemple préférentiel et que l'on pourra apporter des équivalences dans ses éléments constitutifs sans, pour autant, sortir du cadre de l'invention. Finally, it is understood that the present invention has only been described and shown as a preferred example and that it is possible to provide equivalences in its constituent elements without, however, departing from the scope of the invention.
