Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to chicken drinker fixing technology, specifically to an adjustable chicken drinker fixing bracket. Background Technology

[0002] In modern chicken farming, providing chickens with a clean, stable, and suitable drinking water environment is one of the key factors in ensuring their healthy growth and improving farming efficiency. Chicken drinkers, as indispensable equipment in chicken houses, directly affect the chickens' drinking experience and the efficiency of farming management through their installation and adjustment methods.

[0003] In existing chicken coops, watering chickens typically involves tying a rope to the top of the Plasson waterer, then securing the rope to a frame in the coop to suspend the waterer. Water is then supplied through a pipe, and the chickens drink from the troughs attached to the waterer. This method, due to the rope sling, fails to effectively secure the waterer, causing it to shake and spill water as the chickens drink. This leads to dampness in the coop, promoting bacterial growth and compromising the chickens' drinking safety. Furthermore, chickens have different size and drinking height requirements at different growth stages. Chicks, being smaller, require a lower waterer height; as they grow, the waterer height needs to be increased accordingly. However, existing chicken drinkers require untying the ropes of each drinker in the chicken house and then readjusting their height during adjustment. This process is cumbersome, consuming a lot of manpower and time, and is also prone to damaging the drinkers, affecting the chickens' normal drinking. Moreover, manual height adjustment makes it difficult to ensure the uniformity of each drinker's height, which may cause inconvenience for chickens in different locations in the chicken house, thus affecting the uniformity of chicken growth. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an adjustable chicken drinker holder to solve the problems in the prior art that the drinker cannot be stably fixed and the height of the drinker cannot be automatically adjusted, which affects the normal growth of chickens and is inconvenient for farmers to use.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an adjustable chicken drinker mounting bracket, comprising a support frame, an mounting shaft rotatably connected to the support frame, a first drive mechanism connected to the support frame being driven to rotate the mounting shaft via a connecting block, an mounting box being fixedly connected to the outer surface of the mounting shaft via a connecting block, a threaded rod rotatably connected to the mounting box, a second drive mechanism connected to the mounting box being driven to rotate the threaded rod via a connecting block, an mounting ring being threadedly fitted to the outer surface of the threaded rod, an adjusting bolt being threadedly connected to the mounting ring, a clamping arc plate being rotatably connected to one end of the adjusting bolt, a guide rod being fixedly connected to one side of the clamping arc plate and slidably connected to the mounting ring, and a Plasson drinker being provided on the clamping arc plate;

[0006] The mounting ring is equipped with a cleaning mechanism, which is used to clean the water tank on the Plason water dispenser.

[0007] Furthermore, the first drive mechanism includes a first telescopic drive member fixedly connected to the support frame, and a transmission rack is fixedly connected to the output end of the first telescopic drive member. A transmission gear that is fixedly sleeved with the mounting shaft is meshed on one side of the transmission rack.

[0008] Furthermore, the second drive mechanism includes a first rotating drive member fixedly connected to the mounting box, a drive shaft fixedly connected to the output end of the first rotating drive member, a first bevel gear fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the drive shaft, a second bevel gear meshing with the outer surface of the first bevel gear, a first transmission shaft rotatably connected to the mounting box fixedly sleeved in the middle of the second bevel gear, a third bevel gear fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the first transmission shaft, and a fourth bevel gear fixedly sleeved with the threaded rod on the outer surface of the third bevel gear.

[0009] Furthermore, a rubber buffer pad is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the clamping arc plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the cleaning mechanism includes a transmission box fixedly connected to the mounting ring, a second rotation drive component fixedly connected inside the transmission box, a second transmission shaft fixedly connected to the output end of the second rotation drive component, two connecting frames fixedly connected to the outer surface of the second transmission shaft, a cleaning plate fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frames, and a cleaning brush fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning plate.

[0011] Furthermore, a water receiving frame is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame, and a guide plate is fixedly connected to the water receiving frame.

[0012] Furthermore, two connecting pipes are fixedly connected to the water receiving frame.

[0013] Furthermore, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the support frame, and a fixing hole is provided on the fixing plate.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the adjustable chicken drinker holder provided by the present invention has the following advantages:

[0015] By rotating the adjusting bolt, the clamping arc plate moves, accommodating drinkers of different diameters and firmly clamping their bottoms. This effectively prevents the drinkers from shaking while the chickens drink, avoids water spillage from the drinking troughs, keeps the chicken coop floor dry, reduces bacterial growth, and creates a favorable environment for the chickens' healthy growth. Simultaneously, when dealing with chickens of different sizes in the coop, the second drive mechanism can rotate the threaded rod, causing the mounting ring to move the Plasson drinker up and down, achieving automatic height adjustment. The entire adjustment process requires no manual operation, saving significant manpower and time, greatly facilitating use by poultry farmers, improving breeding efficiency, and allowing farmers to more easily manage the chickens' drinking situation in the coop.

[0016] The second drive mechanism rotates the second transmission shaft, causing the cleaning plate and brush to scrub the water trough. After scrubbing, the first drive mechanism rotates the mounting shaft, tilting the drinker to pour dirty water into the collection frame. The water is then discharged through the drain pipe via the guide plate and connecting pipe, preventing chickens from drinking dirty water. This function effectively prevents the accumulation of dirt and the growth of bacteria, ensuring the safety of the chickens' drinking water and reducing the risk of disease from drinking unclean water. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for manual cleaning of each drinker in the chicken house, increasing the automation of drinking water in the chicken house, making farming management easier and more efficient, and contributing to improved overall farming efficiency.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides an adjustable chicken drinker fixing frame, including a support frame 1, a mounting shaft 2 rotatably connected to the support frame 1, a first drive mechanism connected to the support frame 1 for driving the mounting shaft 2 to rotate, a mounting box 3 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the mounting shaft 2 through a connecting block, a threaded rod 4 rotatably connected to the mounting box 3, a second drive mechanism connected to the mounting box 3 for driving the threaded rod 4 to rotate, a mounting ring 5 threadedly fitted to the outer surface of the threaded rod 4, an adjusting bolt 6 threadedly connected to the mounting ring 5, a clamping arc plate 7 rotatably connected to one end of the adjusting bolt 6, a guide rod 8 slidably connected to the mounting ring 5 fixedly connected to one side of the clamping arc plate 7, a Plasson drinker 9 provided on the clamping arc plate 7, and a rubber buffer pad 10 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the clamping arc plate 7;

[0027] The mounting ring 5 is equipped with a cleaning mechanism for cleaning the water tank on the Plason water dispenser 9. A fixing plate is fixedly connected to the support frame 1, and fixing holes are provided on the fixing plate.

[0028] The first drive mechanism includes a first telescopic drive member 11 fixedly connected to the support frame 1. The first telescopic drive member 11 is an electric telescopic rod. A transmission rack 12 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first telescopic drive member 11. A transmission gear 13 fixedly sleeved with the mounting shaft 2 is meshed on one side of the transmission rack 12. The first telescopic drive member 11 drives the transmission rack 12 to move, and the transmission rack 12 drives the transmission gear 13 and the mounting shaft 2 to rotate.

[0029] The second drive mechanism includes a first rotation drive component 21 fixedly connected to the mounting box 3. The first rotation drive component 21 is a servo motor, which is controlled by a PLC programming program to control forward and reverse rotation and rotation angle. A drive shaft 22 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first rotation drive component 21. A first bevel gear 23 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the drive shaft 22. A second bevel gear 24 is meshed on the outer surface of the first bevel gear 23. A first transmission shaft 25, which is rotatably connected to the mounting box 3, is fixedly sleeved in the middle of the second bevel gear 24. A third bevel gear 26 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the 5. A fourth bevel gear 27, which is fixedly sleeved with the threaded rod 4, is meshed on the outer surface of the third bevel gear 26. The first rotation drive 21 drives the drive shaft 22 to rotate. The drive shaft 22 drives the first bevel gear 23 to rotate through the first bevel gear 23 and the second bevel gear 24. The first bevel gear 23 drives the first transmission shaft 25 to rotate through the second bevel gear 24. The first transmission shaft 25 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate through the third bevel gear 26 and the fourth bevel gear 27.

[0030] The support frame 1 is fixed in the chicken coop using the fixing plate and fixing holes. Then, the Plasson drinker 9 is placed inside the mounting ring 5. The adjusting bolt 6 on the mounting ring 5 is then rotated, causing the clamping arc plate 7 to move and clamp the bottom of the Plasson drinker 9. This allows for the clamping and fixing of Plasson drinkers 9 of different diameters. The inlet of the Plasson drinker 9 is then connected to the water supply pipe, which supplies water to the Plasson drinker 9, facilitating drinking for the chickens in the coop. Simultaneously, the stable fixing of the Plasson drinker 9 effectively prevents it from shaking while the chickens are drinking, thus preventing water loss in the drinking trough. This stable fixing method effectively prevents the waterer from shaking when chickens drink, avoids water spillage from the water trough, keeps the chicken coop floor dry, reduces the possibility of bacterial growth, and creates a good environment for the healthy growth of chickens. When it is necessary to adjust the height of the Plasson waterer 9 according to the size of the chickens in the coop, the second drive mechanism drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate, the threaded rod 4 drives the mounting ring 5 to move up and down, and the mounting ring 5 drives the Plasson waterer 9 to move up and down, thereby realizing automatic adjustment of the height of the Plasson waterer 9. The entire adjustment process does not require manual operation, realizing automatic height adjustment, greatly saving manpower and time, facilitating the use of farmers, and improving breeding efficiency.

[0031] Example 2

[0032] Based on Example 1, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the cleaning mechanism includes a transmission box 31 fixedly connected to the mounting ring 5. A second rotation drive component 32 is fixedly connected inside the transmission box 31. The second rotation drive component 32 is a servo motor. The servo motor is controlled by a PLC programming program, which can control the servo motor to rotate forward and backward and rotate at different angles. A second transmission shaft 33 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second rotation drive component 32. Two connecting frames 34 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the second transmission shaft 33. A cleaning plate 35 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting frame 34. A cleaning brush 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cleaning plate 35.

[0033] A water receiving frame 41 is fixedly connected to one side of the support frame 1, and a guide plate 42 is fixedly connected to the water receiving frame 41.

[0034] Two connecting pipes 43 are fixedly connected to the water receiving frame 41.

[0035] By connecting the connecting pipe 43 to the sewage pipe of the chicken coop, water is supplied to the Plasson drinker 9 at regular intervals. Then, the second drive shaft 33 is rotated by the second rotation drive 32. The second drive shaft 33 drives the two connecting frames 34 to rotate reciprocally. The connecting frames 34 drive the cleaning plate 35 to rotate, and the cleaning plate 35 drives the cleaning brush 36 to rotate reciprocally. The cleaning brush 36 scrubs the dirt in the drinking trough of the Plasson drinker 9. After scrubbing, the first drive mechanism drives the mounting shaft 2 to rotate. The mounting shaft 2 drives the mounting box 3 to rotate, and the mounting box 3 drives the threaded rod 4, the mounting ring 5, and the Plasson drinker 9 to rotate, causing the Plasson drinker to rotate. The waterer 9 tilts, then pours the dirty water from the cleaning process into the water collection frame 41 on one side. The guide plate 42 on the water collection frame 41 then pours the water into the bottom of the frame, preventing the chickens from drinking the dirty water. The water collection frame 41 then drains the dirty water through the connecting pipe 43 and the drain pipe, causing the Plasson waterer 9 to rotate to a vertical position. This achieves a comprehensive and automatic cleaning of the dirt in the drinking trough of the Plasson waterer 9, effectively preventing the accumulation of dirt and the growth of bacteria, ensuring the safety of the chickens' drinking water, reducing the risk of chickens getting sick from drinking unclean water, and eliminating the need for manual cleaning of each Plasson waterer 9 in the chicken house. This improves the automation level of drinking water in the chicken house and makes it easier for farmers to use.

[0036] In summary, the adjustable chicken drinker holder of this invention integrates drinker fixing, height adjustment, and automatic cleaning functions, greatly improving the automation level of drinking in chicken houses. Farmers no longer need to fix, adjust the height, and clean each drinker individually; they can complete all operations simply by controlling the corresponding drive mechanism, significantly reducing labor intensity and making farm management easier and more efficient.

[0037] Working principle: Using the fixing plate and fixing holes on the support frame 1, the support frame 1 is stably installed in the designated position in the chicken house, providing basic support for the entire drinker fixing frame. Place the Plasson drinker 9 into the mounting ring 5, and rotate the adjusting bolt 6 on the mounting ring 5. The adjusting bolt 6 drives the clamping arc plate 7 to move along the guide rod 8, and the rubber buffer pad 10 on the clamping arc plate 7 contacts the drinker, achieving clamping and fixing of the bottom of Plasson drinkers 9 of different diameters. Connect the water inlet of the Plasson drinker 9 to the water supply pipe, and the water supply pipe supplies water to the drinker for the chickens in the chicken house to drink.

[0038] When the height of the Plasson drinker 9 needs to be adjusted according to the size of the chickens in the coop, the second drive mechanism is activated. The first rotating drive component 21 drives the drive shaft 22 to rotate, and the first bevel gear 23 on the drive shaft 22 rotates accordingly. The first bevel gear 23 drives the second bevel gear 24, which meshes with it, to rotate, and the second bevel gear 24 drives the first transmission shaft 25 to rotate. The third bevel gear 26 on the first transmission shaft 25 rotates, and the third bevel gear 26 drives the fourth bevel gear 27, which meshes with it, to rotate, and the fourth bevel gear 27 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate. When the threaded rod 4 rotates, the mounting ring 5, which is threaded with it, moves up and down along the threaded rod 4, and the mounting ring 5 drives the Plasson drinker 9 to move up and down, realizing automatic height adjustment.

[0039] Every so often, water is supplied to the Plasson water dispenser 9, and then the second rotation drive 32 of the cleaning mechanism is activated. The second rotation drive 32 drives the second transmission shaft 33 to rotate, which in turn drives the two connecting frames 34 to rotate back and forth. The connecting frames 34 drive the cleaning plate 35 to rotate, and the cleaning brush 36 at the bottom of the cleaning plate 35 rotates back and forth accordingly, scrubbing the dirt in the drinking tank of the Plasson water dispenser 9. After scrubbing is completed, the first drive mechanism is activated. The first telescopic drive 11 drives the transmission rack 12 to move, which in turn drives the transmission gear 13 meshing with it to rotate, which in turn drives the mounting shaft 2 to rotate. The mounting shaft 2 drives the mounting box 3 to rotate, which in turn drives the threaded rod 4, the mounting ring 5, and the Plasson water dispenser 9 to rotate, causing the Plasson water dispenser 9 to tilt and pour the cleaned dirty water into the water receiving frame 41 on one side. The guide plate 42 on the water receiving frame 41 directs water to the bottom of the water receiving frame 41 to prevent chickens from drinking dirty water. Finally, the dirty water is discharged from the water receiving frame 41 through the connecting pipe 43 and the chicken house sewage pipe, and then the Plasson drinker 9 is rotated back to the vertical position.

[0040] The foregoing has only described certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the foregoing drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
