  • the animals can actuate the valve assembly so that the feed enters the food bowl from the valve assembly. At some point, the level of feed in the food bowl rises beyond the extension of the staff so that it is completely surrounded by liquid food.

If a food dispenser is not needed in one of the boxes or should not be operated by the animals located there, the learning and locking aid can be set in a locking position on the control panel of the valve assembly. In this case, the extension of the teach-in and locking element in the direction of the cup base and is in contact with the valve body. Thus, a connection between the valve body and control panel is made via the teach-in and locking element that prevents pivoting or other actuation of the control panel. As a result, individual automatic feed dispensers can be taken out of service without the entire feed supply line and thus all arranged automatic feed dispensers must be taken out of service.

Furthermore, this is arranged symmetrically around the valve assembly, so that the operation can be done equally from all positions around the feed dispenser. In the locking position, the valve assembly is encompassed by the learning and locking element in the cup-shaped configuration on all sides. This results in a reliable contact between the learning and locking element and the valve body. The control panel is thereby reliably secured to the valve body against actuation from any lateral direction by the animals. Further, a cup-shaped configuration is advantageous because the learning and locking element is designed to be more stable against breaking or Abkauen the extension by the animals.

L'invention concerne un distributeur d'alimentation (2) pour animaux, en particulier pour espèce porcine, comportant un mangeoire (4), ouvert vers le haut, délimité par une paroi latérale (6) et par un fond (8), la hauteur de remplissage maximale (H) du mangeoire étant prédéterminée par la hauteur du bord de la paroi latérale (6). Le fond (8) comporte un évidement de matière, disposé dans le mangeoire (4), pour fournir une alimentation liquide. Un dispositif de soupape (10) est disposé dans l'évidement de matière, pour permettre une fourniture d'alimentation liquide déclenchée par des animaux, comprenant : un corps de soupape (18), doté d'un évidement (29) traversant, dans lequel un siège d'étanchéité (20) est conçu ; un élément d'étanchéité (22), disposé au niveau du siège d'étanchéité (20) ; une tige de commande (24), partiellement disposée dans l'évidement (29) traversant, lequel comporte à une extrémité un corps de blocage (26), lequel est conçu au niveau du siège d'étanchéité (20) pour fermer l'évidement (29), au moyen de l'élément d'étanchéité (22) et lequel fait saillie à l'autre extrémité du corps de soupape (18) ; un élément de rappel (28), lequel est conçu pour appliquer une force à la tige de commande (24) et, par-dessus, à l'élément d'étanchéité (22) contre le siège d'étanchéité (20). Le distributeur d'alimentation comprend en outre un élément de guidage (30), qui dévie l'alimentation liquide sortant du dispositif de soupape (10), et qui est agencé au-dessus du corps de soupape (18) au niveau de la tige de commande (24). La tige de commande (24) se termine en dessous du niveau de remplissage maximum (H) du mangeoire (4). Le distributeur d'alimentation (2) comprend un élément d'apprentissage et de verrouillage (32), lequel peut être fixé de manière amovible sur la tige de commande (24), à la fois dans une position d'apprentissage et dans une position de verrouillage, l'élément d'apprentissage et de verrouillage (32) comportant au moins un prolongement, orienté, lors de l'utilisation, sensiblement dans la direction d'une étendue du tige de commande (24), lequel, dans la position d'apprentissage, est orienté de manière à s'éloigner du fond (8) du mangeoire (4) et lequel prolonge la partie actionnable du dispositif de soupape (10) au-delà du niveau de remplissage maximal (H) et lequel, dans la position de verrouillage, est aligné dans la direction du fond (8) de sorte que le prolongement peut être mis en contact avec le corps de soupape (18) de manière que la tige de commande (24) peut être fixée, à l'aide de l'élément d'apprentissage et de verrouillage (32), par rapport au corps de soupape (18).
