Introduction to Duck-billed Pig Nipple Drinker

Duck-billed pig nipple drinker consists of valve body, valve plug, sealing ring, return spring, corking, sieve, etc. The valve body and valve plug are made of brass and stainless steel, the return spring and corking are made of stainless steel, and the sieve is made of engineering plastics. The overall structure are simple and corrosion-resistant.

The Working Process

When pig wishes to drink, they hold the drinker in its mouth and bite the valve rod to let the water go through the gap of the valve plug and sealing ring. When pig stops biting, the return spring will haul back the valve rod, and the gap is sealed again to stop the water flowing. This kind of pig nipple drinker has good sealed performance and slow water flowing, convenient for pig to drink.

Nipple Piglet Drinker

The greatest feature of pig nipple drinker is simple structure. It is composed by shell, mandril and steel ball. When pig wishes to drink, it pushes the mandril and the water goes through the gap of shell, mandril and steel ball. When pig stops pushing, the water pressure and the weight of steel ball and mandril will make them tight coupling, so the water will stop flowing immediately. This kind of pig drinker has strong filtration capacity for sands or other impurities. Nipple drinker must reduce the pressure when it is put into use, in order to avoid the water flow too fast for pig to drink.
