On the one hand, it is necessary to further purchase land area to expand the breeding building area. On the other hand, the moving distance of animals from the breeding house to the milking hall is too long, resulting in a decrease in production efficiency. At the same time, the spatial distance between the feed storage module and the newly built breeding building will gradually increase, resulting in the need to purchase additional transportation equipment and feed transportation equipment to complete transportation and production work, which will also lead to a decrease in production efficiency and increase production costs. Summary of the invention

The feed adding point is connected to the feed quantitative supply device so that various feeds enter the feed quantitative supply device in sequence for accurate weighing. The weighed feed enters the spiral stirring device for stirring and mixing, and then is rotated horizontally 360 degrees through the steerable outlet device below, thereby transporting the mixed feed to the feed transport unit in different directions.

[0010] Optionally, a plurality of breeding pens are arranged along the extension direction of the breeding plant module, and each breeding plant module is provided with a feed conveyor belt along the extension direction thereof, and the feed conveyor belt is connected to the feed transport unit so that the feed can be transported to each breeding pen in the breeding plant module through the feed conveyor belt.

[0024] In the existing design, as the number of breeding buildings increases, the spatial distance between the newly built breeding buildings and the milking facility modules will inevitably continue to increase. On the one hand, it is necessary to further purchase land area to expand the breeding building area. On the other hand, the moving distance of animals from the breeding house to the milking hall is too long, resulting in a decrease in production efficiency. At the same time, the spatial distance between the feed storage module and the newly built breeding building will gradually increase, resulting in the need to purchase additional transportation equipment and feed transportation equipment to complete transportation and production work, which will also lead to a decrease in production efficiency and increase production costs.

[0025] To this end, an embodiment of the present invention provides an integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure, which can reduce the space and production distance between areas without the need for additional transportation equipment, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing production costs.

[0026] At least one embodiment of the present invention provides an integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure, including: an integrated central module and multiple breeding plant modules, the multiple breeding plant modules are radially connected at the periphery of the integrated central module; wherein the integrated central module includes: a feed mixing unit, multiple feed conveying units and a milking unit, each feed conveying unit corresponds to a breeding plant module, the feed is mixed in the feed mixing unit, the feed conveying unit is connected to the feed mixing unit to transport the mixed feed to each breeding plant module, the milking unit is provided with a milking device, and the animal is milked through the milking device; the breeding plant module is provided with a milking channel, and the milking channel is connected to the integrated central module so that the animal can enter and exit the integrated central module through the milking channel.

[0027] In the integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure provided by the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, by radially connecting multiple breeding plant modules at the periphery of the integrated central module, the expandability of the breeding area is increased, the production scale is flexibly adjusted, and there is no need to further purchase land area to expand the breeding plant area.

[0028] The present invention is described below by several specific embodiments. In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present invention clear and concise, the detailed description of known functions and known components may be omitted. When any component of the embodiments of the present invention appears in more than one accompanying drawings, the component may be represented by the same reference numeral in each of the accompanying drawings.

[0029] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure provided by the first embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a structural front view of the integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure provided by the first embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 A top view of the integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure provided by the first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 A top view of an integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure provided in a second embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure, including: an integrated central module 1 and a plurality of breeding plant modules 2, wherein the plurality of breeding plant modules 2 are radially connected to the periphery of the integrated central module 1; wherein the integrated central module 1 includes: a feed mixing unit 5, a plurality of feed conveying units 4 and a milking unit 6, wherein each feed conveying unit 4 corresponds to a breeding plant module 2, the feed is mixed in the feed mixing unit 5, the feed conveying unit 4 is connected to the feed mixing unit 5 to transport the mixed feed to each breeding plant module 2, the milking unit 6 is provided with a milking device, and the animal is milked through the milking device; the breeding plant module 2 is provided with a milking channel 10 , the milking channel 10 is connected to the integrated central module 1, so that the animals can enter and exit the integrated central module 1 through the milking channel 10. It should be noted that the milking unit 6 in the embodiment of the present invention is composed of a turntable, herringbone, or parallel milking device. After the animal completes milking, it returns to each breeding plant module 2 through the milking channel 10. The open space between multiple breeding plant modules 2 can be used as an animal activity place or other purposes. It should be noted that the number of breeding plant modules 2 needs to be determined according to the scale of the breeding animals, and the size of the integrated central module 1 is also the same. Generally, the size of the integrated central module 1 is determined according to its own scale, and space is reserved for adding breeding plant modules 2 in the future, such as Figure 3 The picture shows a breeding plant module. Figure 4Two breeding plant modules are shown. In the early stage, only one or two breeding plant modules 2 may be needed. In the later stage, when the number of animals increases, breeding plant modules 2 can be added. During milking, the animals in the breeding plant module 2 are manually pulled or driven. Figure 2 Move in the direction indicated by the grey arrow, pass through the milking channel 10 to reach the milking unit 6 in the integrated central module 1 to complete milking, and then continue to return to the original breeding plant module 2 through the milking channel 10 in the direction indicated by the grey arrow.

[0030] The integrated modular livestock breeding plant structure provided by the embodiment of the present invention increases the expandability of the breeding area by radially connecting multiple breeding plant modules at the periphery of the integrated central module. In this way, when it is necessary to increase the breeding plant, it is only necessary to continue to connect the breeding plant modules at the periphery of the integrated central module, so as to flexibly adjust the production scale without further purchasing land area to expand the breeding plant area. At the same time, by integrating the feed mixing unit, the feed transportation unit and the milking unit in the integrated central module, the space utilization rate is improved. When the animal needs milking, it directly enters the integrated central module at the center through the milking channel from each breeding plant module, and milks through the milking device in the milking unit. It can also shorten the moving distance of the animal and improve production efficiency. In addition, the feed is mixed in the feed mixing unit and directly transported to each breeding plant module through the feed transportation unit. While shortening the distance, no additional transportation equipment is required, which improves production efficiency and reduces production costs. At the same time, since each breeding plant module and the integrated central module constitute an independent production link, the efficiency of livestock management can also be improved.

[0031] Specifically, the outer contour of the integrated central module 1 is circular or regular polygonal, and the circular or regular polygonal contour shape can effectively realize the direct connection between the integrated central module 1 and the multiple breeding plant modules 2.

[0032] Optionally, the extension lengths of multiple breeding plant modules 2 are different, and the extension length of the breeding plant module 2 is positively correlated with the number of animals that can be accommodated. During the breeding management process, the animals can be divided into different numbers of groups according to their nutritional demand levels, health levels, or growth and development stages, and then raised separately in breeding plant modules 2 with different extension lengths, so that the scale of each breeding plant module 2 can be rationally planned.

[0033] In order to further increase production efficiency, the feed mixing unit 5 is connected to multiple feed adding points 7, and the multiple feed adding points 7 are all located on the periphery of the integrated central module 1. Different types of feed enter the feed mixing unit 5 through different feed adding points 7 for mixing. In this way, the staff can add feed to the feed adding point 7 outside the integrated central module 1, and no longer need to wear special work clothes and disinfect before entering the integrated central module 1, which saves manual operation steps and further improves production efficiency.

[0034] Reference again Figure 2 The feed mixing unit 5 includes a feed quantitative supply device, a spiral stirring device and a steerable outlet device which are sequentially connected from top to bottom. The feed adding point 7 is connected to the feed quantitative supply device so that various feeds enter the feed quantitative supply device in sequence for accurate weighing. The weighed feed enters the spiral stirring device for stirring and mixing, and then rotates horizontally 360 degrees through the steerable outlet device below, so that the mixed feed is transported to the feed conveying unit 4 in different directions. The feed quantitative supply device is located above the entire unit and can accurately distribute concentrated feed and roughage. The feed is then evenly mixed in the spiral stirring device. The lowest steerable outlet device can rotate horizontally 360 degrees, so that the mixed feed is transported to the feed conveying unit 4 in different directions.

[0035] Optionally, a plurality of breeding pens 9 are arranged along the extension direction of the breeding plant module 2, and each breeding plant module 2 is provided with a feed conveyor belt 8 along the extension direction thereof, and the feed conveyor belt 8 is connected to the feed transport unit 4 so that the feed can be transported to each breeding pen 9 in the breeding plant module 2 through the feed conveyor belt 8. It should be noted that the breeding pen 9 includes a slatted floor, a neck clamp, a guardrail, and matching pen parts and other structures, and has functions such as animal fixation, feeding, and feces collection.

[0036] After adding feed at the feed adding place 7, different types of feed are transported to the feed mixing unit 5 via the feed transport unit 4 connected to the feed adding place 7 for stirring and mixing, and then transported to the feed conveyor belt 8 in the corresponding breeding plant module 2 via each feed transport unit 4 corresponding to the breeding plant module 2, and then Figure 2 The black arrow indicates the direction in which the animal moves to the front of each breeding pen 9, and then the feed conveyor belt 8 stops, so that the animals can directly eat the feed in front of them, ensuring that each animal can eat the same amount of feed, avoiding the problem of different animals getting unequal amounts of feed, and ensuring the uniform growth of the animals.

[0037] Optionally, the breeding plant module 2 is also provided with an activity area entrance and exit 11, which connects the breeding plant module 2 with an external activity area. In daily management, animals can enter and exit the external animal activity area through the activity area entrance and exit 11 for exercise or rest.

[0038] Optionally, the milking unit 6 is located in an independent space below the feed mixing unit 5. The milking unit 6 and the feed mixing unit 5 are placed in two independent spaces above and below, mainly for the following considerations: 1. Dust generated by feed mixing may fall into the milk during the milking process and affect the milk quality; 2. The noise of the feed mixing unit may affect the animals being milked, such as causing a stress response. This arrangement can avoid the above problems.

[0039] Optionally, a disinfection module 3 is also connected to the periphery of the integrated central module 1. Multiple breeding plant modules 2 and the disinfection module 3 are radially connected to the periphery of the integrated central module 1. The disinfection module 3 has a personnel passage 12 and an animal passage 13. The personnel passage 12 and the animal passage 13 are both connected to the integrated central module 1. The personnel passage 12 is provided with a changing area 14, a disinfection area 15, and a shower area 16, which have storage, disinfection, and shower functions respectively. The animal passage 13 has an animal entry and exit function.

[0040] The above inventions are only several specific embodiments of the present invention. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
