[0002] With the continuous development of the scale of livestock and poultry farming, the biosafety risks of farms have also increased accordingly. Regular and effective cleaning of livestock and poultry houses can effectively destroy the biofilm of pathogenic bacteria and achieve good cleaning effects, which is the basis for ensuring the biosafety of farms.

The personnel releases or tightens the rope to reduce manpower and quickly lower or lift the cleaning robot 1 out of the manure ditch.

[0056] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.11 As shown, the collision detection guide wheel component 8 includes a mounting seat 4 801, a spring 2 802, a collision switch 803, a guide wheel frame mechanism 804, and a guide wheel 805. The mounting seat 4 801 is fixed on the outer guard plate 306 and is slidably connected to the guide wheel frame mechanism 804. When the guide wheel 805 contacts the wall of the manure ditch and continues to compress, the guide wheel frame mechanism 804 will touch the collision switch 803 and send a signal to the controller 16. Then the cleaning robot 1 stops adjusting the width and rotates to the other side for a certain angle and then turns back to the right position, finally achieving the cleaning robot 1 being centered in the manure ditch with both sides of the push plate close to the wall of the manure ditch.

[0057] Combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 , Fig.11 As shown, the method for cleaning the manure ditch in the livestock and poultry house by using the livestock and poultry house manure ditch cleaning machine of the present invention is as follows:

[0058] (1) When the need for cleaning the manure ditch is raised, the accompanying trolley 2 can carry the cleaning robot 1 and be pushed to one end of the manure ditch, and the staff removes part of the cover;

[0059] (2) The personnel use the lifting component 10 to lower the cleaning robot 1 into the manure ditch, connect one end of the cable reel 12 and the water hose reel 11 to the cable connector 703 and the water hose connector 706 on the cleaning robot 1, respectively, and connect the other ends to the power supply and water source; one end of the reel 15 is connected to the towing hook 510, and the cleaning robot 1 is started to enter the front cleaning mode. The cable reel 12, the water hose reel 11, and the reel 15 are unwound synchronously with the moving speed of the cleaning robot 1;

[0060] (3) The cleaning robot 1 moves forward, and the width adjustment component 4 works at the same time, and the first push plate 901 and the second push plate 903 are adjusted to both sides along with the moving crawler 3;

[0061] (4) When the guide wheel 805 collides with the wall of the manure ditch, the width adjustment component 4 continues to work until the guide wheel frame mechanism 804 touches the collision switch 803, and the collision switch 803 sends a signal to the controller 16;

[0062] (5) After receiving the collision signal, the controller stops the width adjustment component 4 from working, and adjusts the movement of the mobile crawler 3 to realize that the cleaning robot 1 rotates to the other side guide wheel 805 by a certain angle, and then rotates back to the right position after moving a certain distance;

[0063] (6) Repeat steps 3 to 5 until the guide wheels 805 on both sides touch the wall of the manure ditch at the same time, so that the sides of the first push plate 901 and the second push plate 903 are close to the wall of the manure ditch;

[0064] (7) The width adjustment component 4 stops working, and the controller 16 detects that the width adjustment component 4 adjusts the width, and accordingly controls the cleaning nozzle component 6 to adjust the distance between the two nozzles 601, so that the water jets of the two nozzles 601 can fully clean the four walls of the manure ditch, and the cleaning robot 1 enters the middle cleaning mode and cleans forward at a uniform speed;

[0065] (8) The controller 16 transmits the moving distance information of the cleaning robot 1 to the terminal in real time. The staff starts the post-cleaning mode when the cleaning robot 1 is about to reach the end point according to the length of the manure ditch;

[0066] (9) The width adjustment component 4 works, and the first push plate 901 and the second push plate 903 are adjusted inward by a certain distance along with the moving track 3;

[0067] Step 10: The cleaning robot 1 reduces its moving speed. After reaching the end point, the moving crawler 3 rotates in the opposite direction, and the cleaning robot 1 exits along the cleaning direction. At the same time, the cable reel 12, the hose reel 11, and the reel 15 are reeled synchronously with the moving speed of the cleaning robot 1.

[0068] (10) The cleaning robot 1 returns to the starting point, and the staff disconnects the power supply and water source, and disconnects the cable reel 12, the hose reel 11, the reel 15 and the cleaning robot 1;

[0069] (11) The personnel use the lifting component 10 to lift the cleaning robot 1 out of the manure ditch, and the accompanying vehicle 2 carries the cleaning robot 1 away from above the manure ditch, and the personnel restore the manure ditch cover;

[0070] (12) Personnel transport the manure ditch cleaning machine to a designated location for storage. When other manure ditch cleaning needs are raised, steps one to thirteen are repeated.
