Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a lighting device, in particular to a full-automatic poultry lighting control method and device, and belongs to the technical field of lighting devices. BACKGROUND

[0002] Poultry has superior visual function, and the visible light spectrum range is even wider than that of humans (380-760nm). Different colors can be distinguished. After poultry perceives different light colors, its spirit, appetite, digestive function, growth and development, sexual maturity, egg production rate, etc. can all change accordingly. Practice has proved that the time and intensity of light, the color and wavelength of light, the starting time of light stimulation and the interruption of the dark period, etc. will have certain effects on poultry growth and development and reproduction, etc. The mechanism of light on poultry is not yet fully understood, and it is generally believed that light stimulates the hypothalamus through the receptors of the retina, causing the hypothalamus to produce and secrete gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), which is transmitted to the anterior and posterior lobes of the pituitary gland through the pituitary portal system, causing the secretion of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and ovulation hormone, promoting the development of follicles and ovulation, and promoting the growth and development of poultry.

[0003] At present, in the breeding of poultry, the adjustment of light color temperature is mostly manually operated by the user, and the user needs to manually turn on and off the light. The light exposure time required by poultry in different growth stages is very different, and the user generally turns on and off the light at fixed times, which is difficult to meet the dynamic light exposure needs in the process of poultry breeding.

[0004] Prior art: CN202410682346.8 discloses a light color temperature control method and device for different breeding stages of poultry. In this application, the light tube is automatically adjusted to the light color temperature suitable for the breeding stage according to the breeding stage of the poultry. The control method of the lighting device in this application is relatively simple, and only the target color temperature can be adjusted according to the breeding stage, but the lighting time cannot be automatically adjusted according to the breeding stage, and the light cannot be turned on and off according to the plan. The whole lighting control system cannot realize full-automatic adjustment. SUMMARY

[0040] Please refer to the accompanying Figures 1-4 The embodiment provides a full-automatic poultry lighting control method, which is applied to a full-automatic poultry lighting control device and comprises the following steps:

[0041] Receiving the poultry week age set by a user;

[0042] Identifying the current breeding stage according to the week age;

[0043] Automatically matching the light parameters and daily light time corresponding to the breeding stage;

[0044] Driving the LED lamp to output light of a specified color temperature and performing the light-on and light-off operation according to the planned time;

[0045] The light parameter and light time matching rule is as follows:

[0046] a) if the week age is less than or equal to 1, output 5000K color temperature light, and daily light for 24 hours;

[0047] b) if 1 < week age < 9, output 5000K color temperature light, light for 16 hours on the first day, and then decrease by 1 hour per day until the light is turned off after 12 hours of daily light;

[0048] c) If 9 < 18 weeks old and ≤ 18 years old, output 5000K color temperature light, with 12 hours of light on the first day, and then increase by 0.5 hours each week until the light is turned off after 16 hours of light per day;

[0049] d) If the age is >18, output 3000K color temperature light, and turn off the light after 16 hours of daily illumination.

[0050] like Figure 1 The diagram shown is a flowchart of a fully automatic poultry lighting control method according to an embodiment of this application. The specific steps are as follows:

[0051] S1, Program initialization.

[0052] S2. Detect whether the user has pressed the "Settings" button. If so, read the age of the chicken set by the user.

[0053] S3. If the user does not press the "Settings" button, the current age of the chicken stored in the system will be read.

[0054] S4. If the chicken's age is greater than 18 weeks, control the dimming unit to output light with a color temperature of 3000K and provide 16 hours of light per day.

[0055] S5. If the chicken's age is greater than 9 weeks and less than or equal to 18 weeks, control the dimming unit to output light with a color temperature of 5000K. The lighting time is 12 hours on the first day, and then increases by 30 minutes each week until the lighting time is 16 hours per day.

[0056] S6. If the age of the chicken is greater than 1 week and less than or equal to 9 weeks, control the dimming unit to output light with a color temperature of 5000K. The lighting time on the first day is 16 hours, and then decreases by 1 hour each day until the lighting time is 12 hours per day.

[0057] S7. If the age of the chicken is less than or equal to 1 week, then control the dimming unit to output light with a color temperature of 5000K and provide light for 24 hours a day.

[0058] The above steps S2-S7 run in a loop. If the user does not press the "Set" button, the age of the chickens stored in the system will be accumulated over time.

[0059] like Figure 2 The image shows an enumeration example of the color temperature and illumination time of light corresponding to different breeding stages in this application embodiment.

[0060] During the first 1-7 days after hatching, the lighting parameters are: color temperature 5000K, 24 hours of light per day. This helps the chicks adapt to their environment and promotes feeding and drinking.

[0061] On the 8th day, the lighting parameters were adjusted to: color temperature 5000K, and lighting time 16 hours per day.

[0062] From the 9th day, the light time is reduced by 1 hour per day until 12 hours of light per day.

[0063] From the 12th to the 63rd day, the light parameters are: color temperature 5000K, 12 hours of light per day. This stage is in the growing period, and the 5000K high color temperature light source can promote the feeding and movement of the chicken, promote the rapid growth of the body weight, and at the same time can enhance the immunity of the chicken. Shortening the light time can avoid premature sexual maturation.

[0064] From the 64th day, the light time is increased by 0.5 hours per week until 16 hours of light per day.

[0065] From the 113th to the 126th day, the light parameters are: color temperature 5000K, 16 hours of light per day. This stage is in the egg production preparation period, and the extension of the light time is helpful for the development of the follicle and ovulation.

[0066] From the 127th day, the light parameters are adjusted to: color temperature 3000K, 16 hours of light per day. This stage is in the egg production period, and the low color temperature light source has a high red light component, which can stimulate the development and maturation of the ovary of poultry and help to improve the egg production rate.

[0067] As shown in FIG. 1, it is a structural schematic diagram of a full-automatic poultry lighting control device in the embodiment of the present application. Figure 3

[0068] The control box includes a shell 1, a PCBA 2, an LED display 3, a week age setting unit 4, a setting button 5, an illuminance sensor, an LED lamp, and a cable. The PCBA board 2 is integrated with a power module 6, a control module 7, an LED driving module 8, and a temperature and humidity sensor 9.

[0069] The LED display 3 can display information such as date, time, temperature and humidity, illuminance, and current week age.

[0070] The week age setting unit 4 has two groups of buttons, including two groups of independent buttons, which are respectively used for setting the ten's and unit's digits of the week age.

[0071] The setting button 5 is a normally open self-resetting switch button, which is used for sending a week age setting instruction to the control unit.

[0072] The control module 7 collects data from the temperature and humidity sensor 9 and the illuminance sensor 10 and displays information such as temperature and humidity, illuminance, and current week age through the LED display 3.

[0073] The illuminance sensor 10 is located near the LED lamp 11 and is used for detecting the brightness of the LED lamp. The LED lamp at least includes a group of 3000K color temperature light sources and a group of 5000K color temperature light sources. The cable is used for connecting the control module, the LED lamp, the week age setting unit, the setting button, and the illuminance sensor. ​
