Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of animal breeding and relates to a spray cooling device used for animal breeding. Background Art

[0002] When the weather is hot in summer, the pigsty needs to be cooled to prevent the high temperature from causing the pigs to get sick. The existing pigsty cooling methods are mainly the following:

[0003] 1) Air conditioning is used in pig pens. Many farmers now use air conditioning for convenience, which will cause many pigs to have respiratory infections in summer, affect the appetite of pigs, and even cause the death of pigs in severe cases, causing huge economic losses to farmers.

[0004] 2) A water pipe is set up on the pigsty ceiling to spray the entire space. However, setting up the spray device at high altitude will make the air humid, and excessive humidity will affect the evaporation cooling effect, and easily affect the normal life and health of the pigs, and is not conducive to the daily work of the breeder.

[0005] 3) Add an insulation layer to the pig pen, or use a larger fan. However, fan cooling can only achieve cooling effect when the wind blows onto the pigs, and it will have no effect or poor effect in areas where the wind cannot reach or the wind is very weak.

[0006] 4) Plant greenery on the pig pen roof to provide shade. Planting vines outside the pig house wall can block strong sunlight and improve the microclimate of the pig farm, but the disadvantage is that it attracts mosquitoes and cannot directly and quickly cool down. Summary of the invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a spray cooling device for animal breeding in order to overcome the defects of the prior art.

[0008] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0009] A spray cooling device for animal breeding comprises a mobile base, a water storage tank arranged on the mobile base, a lifting water supply mechanism arranged on the mobile base and connected to the water storage tank, a spray mechanism arranged on the top of the lifting water supply mechanism, and an electric control mechanism, wherein the electric control mechanism is electrically connected to the spray mechanism and the lifting water supply mechanism respectively. The mobile base facilitates the flexible movement of the device.

[0010] Furthermore, the mobile base includes a base plate and a universal movable wheel arranged at the bottom of the base plate. The mobile base also includes a push rod arranged on the base plate. When the push rod is pushed, the universal movable wheel moves the base plate and other mechanisms on the base plate to a desired position.

[0011] Furthermore, a water inlet is provided on the top of the water storage tank, through which water can be added to the water storage tank.

[0012] Furthermore, the lifting water supply mechanism includes a lifting pipe arranged on the movable base in the vertical direction and a bellows arranged inside the lifting pipe, the spray mechanism is arranged on the top of the lifting pipe, the top end of the bellows is connected to the spray mechanism, and the bottom end is connected to the water tank. The water in the water tank is sent to the spray mechanism through the bellows. The bellows can be extended and retracted accordingly as the lifting pipe is lifted and lowered, so as to always ensure the connection between the water tank and the spray mechanism.

[0013] Furthermore, a water pipe is provided between the bottom end of the bellows and the water tank, and the bellows is connected to the water tank through the water pipe.

[0014] Furthermore, a water pump is provided on the water pipe, and the water pump is electrically connected to the electric control mechanism. Under the regulation of the electric control mechanism, the water pump draws water out of the water tank and sends it into the spray mechanism.

[0015] Furthermore, the lifting tube is an electric lifting tube, which is electrically connected to an electric control mechanism, and the electric control mechanism can control the lifting and lowering of the electric lifting tube, thereby quickly changing the height of the spray mechanism.

[0016] Furthermore, the spray mechanism includes a spray head arranged at the top of the lifting pipe. The water in the bellows is sprayed out through the spray head in atomization. The spray head is preferably an electric rotary spray head, which is electrically connected to the electric control mechanism, so that the electric control mechanism can quickly control it and rotate the spray direction of the spray head. The spray head can also adjust the water volume and droplet size according to actual needs.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution, the spray mechanism further comprises a folding frame arranged on the top of the lifting pipe, and the spray head is arranged on the folding frame.

[0018] Furthermore, the electric control mechanism includes a controller arranged on a mobile base and a battery arranged on the mobile base, and the battery is provided with a charging port. The controller regulates each electrical component. The controller is also provided with an infrared remote receiver. The operator sends a signal through the infrared remote transmitter, and the infrared remote receiver receives the signal and transmits it to the controller, thereby realizing remote control of each electrical component. The battery supplies power to the controller and other electrical components, so that the device can be moved over a long distance.

[0019] Furthermore, the electric control mechanism also includes an infrared thermometer and a distance detector. The infrared thermometer can sense the body temperature of the pig through infrared body temperature sensing to determine whether spraying is needed. Once the pig's body temperature exceeds its optimal body temperature, the data is fed back to the controller, and the controller adjusts the spray mechanism and the lifting water supply mechanism to spray and cool the pig. When the aisle in the pig pen is too narrow (smaller than the predetermined range), the controller can control the folding frame to fold to a suitable posture according to the data fed back by the distance detector.

[0020] As a preferred technical solution, the infrared thermometer and the distance detector are both arranged on the outside of the lifting tube.

[0021] As a preferred technical solution, two sets of lifting water supply mechanisms and spray mechanisms are symmetrically provided on the movable base, which can spray on both sides simultaneously, or spray on one side alone according to actual needs.

[0022] In actual application, the present invention moves the device to the vicinity of the pigs in the pigsty through the mobile base, and under the control of the electric control mechanism, the water in the water tank is sent to the spray mechanism through the lifting water supply mechanism and directly sprayed to the pigs' heads, effectively cooling the pigs. Among them, the lifting water supply mechanism can change the height of the spray mechanism to meet the spraying needs of different heights.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following characteristics:

[0024] 1) Through the cooperation of the mobile base, water storage tank, lifting water delivery mechanism, spray mechanism and electric control mechanism, the device can be moved to the vicinity of the pigs in the pigpen, and the water can be directly sprayed to the pigs' heads, so that the pigs can be cooled more directly and effectively, avoiding the pigs from getting sick, ensuring the healthy growth of the pigs, and reducing the breeding costs;

[0025] 2) It can accurately and directly cool down the pigs according to the environment, pig conditions and pigpen design needs, and avoids various problems existing in existing pigpen cooling methods, making it more efficient, safe and reliable;

[0026] 3) Remote control spray operation reduces the operator's workload, and the electronic control method does not generate noise, which is quieter and more environmentally friendly;

[0027] 4) The infrared thermometer can be used to cool the pigs more accurately according to their body temperature, saving water and reducing the stress of the pigs. In addition, if there are no pigs on one side of the device (such as near the wall), the controller will stop the spraying action on the corresponding side according to the data fed back by the infrared thermometer, thus realizing intelligent spray cooling;

[0028] 5) When the device encounters a narrow place during its movement, the distance detector can feed back data to the controller, which will then adjust the folding frame on the corresponding side to ensure the safety of the equipment and full-scene operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0032] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is implemented based on the technical solution of the present invention, and provides a detailed implementation method and specific operation process, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0033] Example:

[0034] like Figure 1 A spray cooling device for animal breeding shown in the figure includes a movable base, a water tank 1 arranged on the movable base, a lifting water supply mechanism arranged on the movable base and connected to the water tank 1, a spray mechanism arranged on the top of the lifting water supply mechanism, and an electric control mechanism, which is electrically connected to the spray mechanism and the lifting water supply mechanism respectively.

[0035] The movable base includes a bottom plate 2 and a universal movable wheel 3 arranged at the bottom of the bottom plate 2. A water inlet 4 is arranged at the top of the water storage tank 1. The spray mechanism includes a spray head 9 arranged at the top of the lifting pipe 5.

[0036] The lifting water supply mechanism includes a lifting pipe 5 arranged on a movable base in a vertical direction and a bellows 6 arranged inside the lifting pipe 5. The spray mechanism is arranged at the top of the lifting pipe 5. The top end of the bellows 6 is connected to the spray mechanism, and the bottom end is connected to the water storage tank 1. A water pipe 7 is arranged between the bottom end of the bellows 6 and the water storage tank 1, and the bellows 6 is connected to the water storage tank 1 through the water pipe 7. A water pump 8 is arranged on the water pipe 7, and the water pump 8 is electrically connected to the electric control mechanism. The lifting pipe 5 is an electric lifting pipe, and the electric lifting pipe is electrically connected to the electric control mechanism.

[0037] The electric control mechanism comprises a controller 10 arranged on the mobile base and a storage battery 11 arranged on the mobile base, wherein the storage battery 11 is provided with a charging port 12. The electric control mechanism also comprises an infrared thermometer 13 and a distance detector 14.

[0038] In actual application, the device is moved to the vicinity of the pigs in the pigsty through the mobile base. Under the control of the electric control mechanism, the water in the water tank 1 is sent to the spray mechanism through the lifting water supply mechanism and sprayed directly to the pig's head (because the nerves in the pig's neck are relatively sensitive, spraying the pig's head directly will make the pig feel particularly cool, and the water droplets spread and evaporate on the pig's back surface, absorbing heat and cooling the pig), effectively cooling the pig. Among them, the lifting water supply mechanism can change the height of the spray mechanism to meet the spraying needs of different heights.
