Problems solved by technology

Although this system overcomes the problem of wetting the chicks and introducing individual slices of the vaccine-containing gel into the tray by hand, there is still the problem that the vaccine-containing soft gel is not evenly distributed throughout the tray, as most The soft gel flows from a nozzle in the form of a small hole directly adjacent to the feeding device
Therefore there is concern about uneven vaccination of the chicks as areas further from the feeding equipment do not receive a sufficient amount of soft gel due to pressure loss along the hollow rod

Embodiment Construction

[0036] figure 1 A device for distributing a fluid, especially a soft gel, into poultry chick trays is schematically shown, generally indicated by 1, the device 1 comprising a control unit 17; a throttle valve 11; a pumping unit 9; supply pipe 22 connecting throttle valve 11 to pumping unit 9; manifold 8; fluid atomizer 6 connected to manifold 8; flexible connection means 7 connecting manifold 8 and fluid atomizer 6; The support device 2 includes two bases 3 and two support rods 4 .

[0037] The length of the support rod 4 is preferably adjustable, for example consisting of a telescopic rod. Optionally, the mounting rail 5 is directly connected to the support pole 4 and the control unit 17 is mounted on the support pole 4 . Therefore only one base 3 and one support rod 4 are required.

[0038] Furthermore, the mounting rail 5 carries a plurality, in particular 12 to 28, of fluid atomizers 6 which can be fixed at different heights on the support device 2 . Alternatively, the...

Abstract

A dispensing apparatus (1) for delivering droplets of fluids such as liquids having a low viscosity or being soft gels onto poultry hatchlings that are present in movably mounted hatchling trays (19)comprising at least one reservoir (18), at least one pumping unit (9), connected to at least one reservoir (18), with at least one manifold (8) connected to at least one pumping unit (9), as well as acontrol unit. The apparatus comprises a plurality of optionally adjustable fluid atomizers (6) being connected by flexible connecting means (7) to at least one manifold (8), whereby the fluid atomizers (6) are detachably and / or slidably connected on at least one mounting rail (5), and that optionally different types of fluid atomizers (6) are distributed onto the mounting rail (5). Additionally,a method for delivering fluid droplets onto poultry hatchlings present in moving hatchling trays (19) is described.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a dispensing device for delivering droplets of a fluid, such as a low viscosity liquid or a soft gel, to poultry chicks present in a movably mounted chick tray, the dispensing device comprising: at least one reservoir ; at least one pumping unit, each pumping unit is connected to at least one reservoir; at least one manifold connected to the at least one pumping unit; Method of delivery to poultry chicks present in moving chick trays. Background technique [0002] Young poultry such as chicks or turkeys must be immunized against various diseases in their first days of life. Vaccination of young chicks is usually carried out by spraying or dripping the vaccine suspended in drinking water used in poultry hatcheries. The vaccine is therefore sprayed directly on the young chicks. These birds will eat or peck off droplets from another animal's feathers. Thus, all poultry chicks consume a sufficient amount of vaccine, but...
