Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of animal science and technology, and particularly to a free-range rabbit welfare cage device with a simulated rest platform. Background Art

[0002] Rabbits are domesticated from a wild species of cavy and retain the living habits of wild cavies. They are less active during the day and often stay in high places, in a state of pseudo-sleep or rest. They are active at night, have a large appetite, and have the habits of gnawing wood and digging soil. They are timid, afraid of being startled, afraid of heat, afraid of moisture, and like a quiet, clean, dry, and cool environment and cannot tolerate dirty conditions. Their hind legs are relatively long and strong, the knees bend forward, the hind claws have 4 toes, and the first toe is degenerate. They are good at running and jumping. They have strong reproductive ability, multiple births, short gestation periods, and early maturity.

[0003] At present, the rabbit production methods in various countries in the world are still diverse, including both simple free-range and factory-intensive production. With the development of the rabbit farming industry and the continuous increase in the demand for rabbit products by humans, the feeding method will inevitably gradually change from small-scale family free-range to large-scale intensive feeding, aiming to save labor, increase the slaughter rate, and increase economic benefits, and to realize procedural management in the organization and implementation of production links such as rabbit feeding management, breeding, and hygiene and epidemic prevention.

[0004] However, the existing commercial feeding methods mostly adopt intensive cage feeding. Under this intensive feeding method, due to the large feeding density, it brings many inconveniences to the control of the small environment and often induces epidemic diseases. Moreover, rabbits are "imprisoned" in a small space throughout their lives, with little freedom of movement, unable to meet their biological characteristics such as living in burrows, staying in high places, and resting quietly, which also affects their reproductive ability and lifespan and makes them prone to "cage diseases" (such as pododermatitis, obesity-induced infertility, etc.), thus causing greater losses and affecting the economic benefits of farming. For simple ground free-range methods, they are relatively extensive and lack supporting facilities and equipment, and cannot meet the requirements of large-scale production. Summary of the Invention

[0025] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the following will make a detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings of the specification.

[0026] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without departing from the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0027] Secondly, the so-called "one embodiment" or "embodiment" herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that can be included in at least one implementation manner of the present invention. The "in one embodiment" that appears in different places in this specification does not all refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.

[0028] Embodiment 1

[0029] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , this is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides a free-range rabbit welfare cage device with a simulated rest platform, which includes a cage body 100 for providing an activity and rest area and a feeding unit 200 for providing forage and drinking water. Among them, the cage body 100 includes a rest area 101 and a feeding area 102.

[0030] Specifically, the rest area 101 is composed of a number of movable cages 103. One of the movable cages 103 is fixedly connected to the rest area 101, that is, the rabbit cage body 100 can raise at least one rabbit. When the feeding area 102 can bear the load, the number of movable cages 103 can be increased accordingly according to the number of rabbits. For the convenience of movement, universal wheels are provided at the bottom of the movable cage 103. In the middle of the movable cage 103, there is a platform 103a. The platform 103a divides the movable cage 103 into a platform area 103b and a cave area 103c. There is a cave passage 103d between the platform 103a and the bottom of the movable cage 103. The cave passage 103d simulates the shape of a rabbit hole in nature and is relatively rough inside, ensuring that the rabbit can move from the cave area 103c to the platform area 103b. Corresponding materials can also be laid in the lower cave area 103c to give the rabbit a closed and comfortable living space.

[0031] Further, on one side of the interior of the feeding area 102 connected to the movable cage 103, there is a slope 102a. One end of the slope 102a is connected to the platform 103a. At the bottom of the other side of the interior of the feeding area 102, there is a grid structure 102b. After the rabbit moves from the cave area 103c to the platform area 103b, it can move down to the feeding area 102 from the slope 102a. Due to the special physiological structure of the rabbit, it often excretes feces while eating, and the feces will fall out through the gaps of the grid structure 102b.

[0032] In this embodiment, the side walls of the rabbit cage body 100 are all made of transparent materials and are provided with ventilation holes. When the movable cages 103 are connected to each other, the multiple platform areas 103b are connected. After different rabbits are trained and familiarized, they can enter different cave areas 103c. The multiple cave areas 103c are separated from each other, so that each rabbit has its own corresponding activity space.

[0033] Embodiment 2

[0034] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment and is different from the previous embodiment in that it further includes: a feeding unit 200, installed in the feeding area 102, including a feeding component 201, a drinking water component 202, and a feces treatment component 203.

[0035] Specifically, the feeding component 201 is a hollow spherical cage structure with shafts provided at both ends. There is a hinge platform 102b-1 on the grid structure 102b. The shaft at one end of the feeding component 201 is hinged on the hinge platform 102b-1, and the shaft at the other end of the feeding component 201 passes through the side wall of the rabbit cage body 100. A first gear 201a and a second gear 201b are also provided on the shaft located outside the side wall. Among them, the hinge platform 102b-1 only buckles one end of the feeding component 201, and the two ends of the spherical cage are also buckled together. When the buckling of the hinge platform 102b-1 is released, the spherical cage can be disassembled and hay etc. can be put in.

[0036] Further, the feces treatment component 203 includes a conveyor belt 203a and a manure collecting trough 203b. A support 100a is provided at the bottom of the rabbit cage body 100. The conveyor belt 203a is installed between the supports 100a. A third gear 203a-1 is provided at the end of the shaft of one of the rollers of the conveyor belt 203a. The third gear 203a-1 is connected to the first gear 201a by a chain. The conveyor belt 203a is located below the grid structure 102b. The manure collecting trough 203b is provided below the conveyor belt 203a, and a brush 203b-1 is provided in the middle of the manure collecting trough 203b. The brush 203b-1 is in contact with the surface of the conveyor belt 203a. Among them, the ends of the manure collecting trough 203b are higher than the middle. When the conveyor belt 203a rotates, the rabbit feces on the conveyor belt 203a roll into the manure collecting trough 203b accordingly, and part of the feces sticking to the conveyor belt 203a will also be brushed off into the manure collecting trough 203b when passing through the brush 203b-1.

[0037] Still further, the drinking water component 202 includes a water inlet end 202a and a water outlet end 202b. The water inlet end 202a includes a water tank 202a-1 and a water inlet pipe 202a-2. The water inlet pipe 202a-2 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 202a-1. The water outlet end 202b includes a water trough 202b-1 and a water outlet pipe 202b-2. The water outlet pipe is provided at the bottom of the water trough 202b-1. The bottom of the water inlet pipe 202a-2 and the bottom of the water outlet pipe 202b-2 are interconnected. Among them, the water tank 202a-1 is placed on the top of the rabbit cage body 100, and both the water inlet pipe 202a-2 and the water outlet pipe 202b-2 are in a vertical state.

[0038] In addition, a water stop assembly 303 is further provided in the water inlet pipe 202a-2. The water stop assembly 303 includes a water guiding member 303a, an elastic member 303b, a movable member 303c, and a float 303d. A guiding through hole K-1 is provided in the water inlet pipe 202a-2. One end of the float 303d is conical, and the diameter of the other end is larger than that of the guiding through hole K-1. The float 303d is overall in a water droplet shape, and guiding rings are provided around it, so that the float 303d can move smoothly along the axial direction in the water inlet pipe 202a-2. The float 303d is arranged in the water inlet pipe 202a-2 near one end of the water outlet pipe 202b-2, and its conical end faces the guiding through hole K-1. A conical hole K-2 is also provided in the water inlet pipe 202a-2. The middle part of the water guiding member 303a is a hollow tubular structure, and a frustum 303a-1 is provided at one end. A through hole K-3 communicating with the middle part of the water guiding member 303a is provided on the frustum 303a-1. The frustum 303a-1 and the conical hole K-2 fit with each other. A circular boss 303a-2 is provided at the other end of the water guiding member 303a. The elastic member 303b is connected between the circular boss 303a-2 and the conical hole K-2. The elastic member 303b is a compression spring. In a normal state, the spring pushes up the water guiding member 303a, so that the frustum 303a-1 at one end of the water guiding member 303a is completely engaged in the conical hole K-2. At the same time, under the action of water flow, the frustum 303a-1 is pressed downwards, and the water flow will not continue to flow into the water tank 202b-1.

[0039] Further, the movable member 303c is tubular and is arranged between the circular boss 303a-2 and the guiding through hole K-1. A movable hole K-4 is provided on the side wall of the water inlet pipe 202a-2. A connecting rod 203c-1 parallel to the axis of the water inlet pipe 202a-2 is provided on the outer wall of the movable member 303c. The outer wall of the movable member 303c is in close fit with the inner wall of the water inlet pipe 202a-2. The connecting rod 203c-1 is located outside the water inlet pipe 202a-2, and the connection part of the connecting rod 203c-1 and the movable member 303c is located in the movable hole K-4. By pushing the external connecting rod 203c-1 to move axially, the movable member 303c can be made to move axially in the water inlet pipe 202a-2. When the movable member 303c moves upwards, it pushes up the water guiding member 303a, and the water flow will flow in from the through hole K-3 on the water guiding member 303a and then enter the water tank 202b-1. When the water in the water tank 202b-1 rises rapidly, the float 303d in the water inlet pipe 202a-2 also floats upwards, thus blocking the guiding through hole K-1 and preventing the water flow from entering. The height of the guiding through hole K-1 is set not to exceed the height of the water tank 202b-1. When the water volume in the water tank 202b-1 decreases, the float 303d sinks, and the water flow replenishes again.

[0040] Furthermore, a movable groove 203c-2 is vertically provided on the cylindrical surface of the connecting rod 203c-1, a fixed plate 203c-3 is vertically provided on the cylindrical surface of the outer wall of the water inlet pipe 202a-2, and a folding rod 203c-4 is provided on the fixed plate 203c-3, and one end of the folding rod 203c-4 is located in the movable groove 203c-2 and can rotate, so that the other end of the folding rod 203c-4 rotates in the movable groove 203c-2, thereby driving the connecting rod 203c-1 connected to the movable groove 203c-2 to move up and down, so that the water in the water tank can intermittently enter the water pipe for circulation. The other end of the driving folding rod 203c-4 is provided with a fourth gear 203c-5, and the fourth gear 203c-5 is connected to the second gear 201b through a chain.

[0041] In this embodiment, the third gear 303a-1 is connected to the first gear 201a through a chain, and the fourth gear 203c-5 is connected to the second gear 201b through a chain. When feeding rabbits, enough hay is put into the feeding assembly 201. When the rabbits eat, they will move the feeding assembly 201 to rotate, so that the conveyor belt 203a and the related parts in the drinking water assembly 202 rotate together, so that cleaning and water supply are carried out at the same time. The feeding assembly 201 can also be rotated manually to achieve the effect, which greatly increases the work efficiency compared with traditional manual cleaning.

[0042] The principle of the invention is simple and clear, and it has the advantages of being easy to operate, saving time and effort. The invention designs a welfare breeding rabbit cage by improving the structure of rabbit breeding equipment. The cage is equipped with independent closed and quiet caves, high rest platforms, feces conveyor belts and other devices, which can fully meet the behavioral requirements of rabbits and allow the rabbits to reach the best physical and psychological state. The cage is suitable for large-scale free-range breeding, can meet the animal welfare of rabbits, and avoids the problem of group diseases caused by excessive breeding density.
