[0031] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention can be implemented in many different ways as defined and covered by the claims.

[0032] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution, see reference. Figure 1 and Figure 6An automated cleaning robot for livestock and poultry transport equipment includes a support device 1, two side cleaning devices 2 and a bottom cleaning device 3. The bottom cleaning device 3 is installed at the bottom of the support device 1, and the side cleaning devices 2 are installed on both sides of the bottom cleaning device 3.

[0033] The bottom cleaning device 3 includes a connecting rod 31, a main water pipe 32, three auxiliary water pipes 33, three bottom cleaning brushes 34, three scrapers 35, two side plates 36, six fixing plates 37, a conveyor belt 38, a motor 39, and a support plate 310. The upper end of the connecting rod 31 is fixedly connected to the support device 1, and the lower end of the connecting rod 31 is connected to the main water pipe 32. Three auxiliary water pipes 33 are connected below the main water pipe 32. Water flows through the main water pipe 32 to the three auxiliary water pipes 33. Fixed plates 37 are installed at both ends of the auxiliary water pipes 33. Side plates 36 are connected below the fixed plates 37. A scraper 35 and a bottom cleaning brush 34 are installed between the two side plates 36. The bottom cleaning brush 34 is rotatably connected to the side plates 36. The scraper 35 and the bottom cleaning brush 34 are installed alternately, with the scraper 35 located in front of the bottom cleaning brush 34. The left ends of the three bottom cleaning brushes 34 are connected through a conveyor belt 38, and one of the bottom cleaning brushes 34 is connected to the output end of motor 4 39. The housing of motor 4 39 is fixedly connected to the side plates 36 through two support plates 310. Motor 4 39 drives one bottom cleaning brush 34 to rotate, and then the three bottom cleaning brushes 34 rotate simultaneously through the conveyor belt 38 to wash the carriage. When the bottom cleaning brush 34 rotates, the auxiliary water pipe 33 sprays water, which not only washes the car body but also cleans the stains adhering to the brush bristles, making the cleaning effect better.

[0034] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The side cleaning device 2 includes a rotation mechanism 21, an upper and lower vibration mechanism 22, an L-shaped plate 23, and a side water pipe 24. The upper and lower vibration mechanism 22 is connected to the support device 1. The L-shaped plate 23 is located above the upper and lower vibration mechanism 22, the side water pipe 24 is located below the upper and lower vibration mechanism 22, and the rotation mechanism 21 is located above the L-shaped plate 23.

[0035] See Figure 5The self-rotating mechanism 21 includes a second motor 211, a driving gear 212, four driven gears 213, four side cleaning brushes 214, and four support rods 215. The driving gear 212 is rotatably connected to the center of the L-shaped plate 23. The driving gear 212 is connected to the output end of the second motor 211. The housing of the second motor 211 is fixedly connected to the L-shaped plate 23 through the four support rods 215. The four driven gears 213 are rotatably connected to the L-shaped plate 23 and are arranged in a rectangle around the driving gear 212. The driven gears 213 mesh with the driving gear 212. The side cleaning brushes 214 are installed below the driven gears 213. The second motor 211 drives the driving gear 212 to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation of the side cleaning brushes 214 through the driven gears 213. During the rotation of the side cleaning brushes 214, the side of the carriage can be cleaned.

[0036] The up-and-down vibration mechanism 22 includes a rotating rod 221, two cams 222, a fixing member 223, a motor 224, and a support column 225. The middle part of the rotating rod 221 and the fixing member 223 are connected by a bearing. The two ends of the fixing member 223 are disc-shaped, and the middle part of the fixing member 223 is cylindrical. A through hole for the rotating rod 221 to pass through is provided in the middle of the fixing member 223. The side panel of the carriage can be clamped into the middle of the fixing member 223 for positioning. Cams 222 are installed at both ends of the rotating rod 221. The cams 222 are in contact with the horizontal section of the L-shaped plate 23. The outer side of the rotating rod 221 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 224. The motor 224 is installed on the support device 1. Motor 224 drives rotating rod 221 to rotate, which in turn drives cam 222 to rotate. As a result, L-shaped plate 23 moves up and down due to the rotation of cam 222 and its own weight. The up-and-down movement of L-shaped plate 23 drives self-rotating mechanism 21 to move up and down, thereby increasing the relative movement of side cleaning brush 214 and the vehicle body, thus improving the cleaning effect of the side panel of the vehicle body.

[0037] See Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The support device 1 includes a horizontal moving mechanism 11, a vertical moving mechanism 12 and a lifting mechanism 13. The horizontal moving mechanism 11 is connected to the vertical moving mechanism 12 in the middle. The lifting mechanism 13 is connected below the vertical moving mechanism 12. The bottom cleaning device 3 is connected to the lower end of the lifting mechanism 13.

[0038] The lateral movement mechanism 11 includes four uprights 111, a threaded rod 112, a smooth rod 113, a threaded hole lateral movement block 114, a smooth hole lateral movement block 115, and a motor 116. The four uprights 111 are arranged in a rectangular shape. The threaded rod 112 and the smooth rod 113 are respectively connected to two of the laterally arranged uprights 111. The threaded rod 112 is rotatably connected to the uprights 111. The threaded hole lateral movement block 114 is threaded onto the threaded rod 112. The smooth hole lateral movement block 115 is slidably mounted onto the smooth rod 113. The right end of the threaded rod 112 is connected to the output end of the motor 116. The housing of the motor 116 is fixedly mounted on the uprights 111.

[0039] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 The longitudinal moving mechanism 12 includes a threaded rod 121, a smooth rod 122, a cylinder 123, a motor 124, and a longitudinal moving block 125. The motor 124 is installed on the rear side of the smooth hole transverse moving block 115. The threaded rod 121 is connected between the threaded hole transverse moving block 114 and the motor 124. The front end of the threaded rod 121 is connected to the output end of the motor 124, and the rear end of the threaded rod 121 is rotatably connected to the threaded hole transverse moving block 114. The smooth rod 122 is connected between the threaded hole transverse moving block 114 and the smooth hole transverse moving block 115. The smooth rod 122 is located to the left of the threaded rod 121. The longitudinal moving block 125 is installed on the threaded rod 121 and the smooth rod 122, and the longitudinal moving block 125 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 121. The longitudinal moving block 125 is slidably connected to the smooth rod 122. The lower end of the longitudinal moving block 125 is connected to the cylinder 123.

[0040] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The lifting mechanism 13 includes two cylinders 131, 132, a center block 133, and a motor 134. The center block 133 is connected to the lower end of cylinder 123. Cylinder 131 is connected to the left and right ends of the center block 133. Cylinder 131 is connected to the side cleaning device 2. Cylinder 132 is connected to the lower end of the center block 133. The output end of cylinder 132 is connected to motor 134 through a motor cover. The output shaft of motor 134 is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 31. Motor 134 is used to drive the bottom cleaning device 3 to rotate.

[0041] See Figure 2 The outer casing of the motor 224 is connected to the output end of the cylinder 131 via the support column 225. The vertical section of the L-shaped plate 23 has a through hole in the shape of a rounded rectangle. The output shaft of the motor 224 passes through the through hole of the vertical section of the L-shaped plate 23. The L-shaped plate 23 can play a limiting role. A side water pipe 24 is connected to the vertical section of the L-shaped plate 23 below the through hole.

[0042] See Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The side cleaning brush 214 and the bottom cleaning brush 34 have the same structure. The bottom cleaning brush 34 includes a central shaft 341 and a sleeve brush 342. The left end of the central shaft 341 passes through the side plate 36 and is connected to the conveyor belt 38. The part of the central shaft 341 near the left side plate 36 has a thread. The sleeve brush 342 is installed on the central shaft 341 by threaded connection. The side plate 36 on the other side is detachably connected to the scraper 35 by bolts. The right end of the central shaft 341 is rotatably inserted into the side plate 36 on the other side. Therefore, when the bristles of the side cleaning brush 214 and the bottom cleaning brush 34 are severely damaged and worn, the problem can be solved by replacing the sleeve brush 342.

[0043] See Figure 2 and Figure 6 Both the side water pipe 24 and the main water pipe 32 are connected to an external water source through corrugated pipes, and water spray holes are provided below the side water pipe 24 and the auxiliary water pipe 33.

[0044] The working steps of this invention are as follows: First, the transport vehicle is reversed into the support device 1. Motors 5 (116) and 3 (124) are then used to move the side cleaning device 2 and the bottom cleaning device 3 above the vehicle. Cylinder 2 (131) is controlled to align the side cleaning device 2 with the side panel of the vehicle. Then, cylinder 1 (123) is controlled to lower the side cleaning device 2 until the fixing piece 223 engages with the side panel of the vehicle. Immediately afterwards, cylinder 3 (132) is controlled to bring the scraper 35 of the bottom cleaning device 3 into contact with the bottom of the vehicle.

[0045] Step 2: Water is supplied to the side water pipe 24 and the main water pipe 32 through an external water source. Then, motors 1 (224) and 2 (211) are started to make the side cleaning brush 214 rotate and move up and down to clean the side panels of the carriage. At the same time, motor 4 (39) is started to make the bottom cleaning brush 34 clean the floor of the carriage. Then, motor 3 (124) moves the side cleaning device 2 and the bottom cleaning device 3 into the carriage.

[0046] Step 3: When the side cleaning device 2 and the bottom cleaning device 3 reach the innermost part of the carriage, the bottom cleaning device 3 is rotated 180 degrees by the lifting mechanism 13. Then, the bottom cleaning device 3 is moved to the other side of the carriage by the lateral moving mechanism 11, the longitudinal moving mechanism 12 and the lifting mechanism 13. Then, the steps 1 and 2 are repeated to clean the other side of the carriage that has not been cleaned. This can thoroughly clean a wide carriage without leaving any cleaning dead corners.

[0047] Step 4: Move the side cleaning device 2 and the bottom cleaning device 3 back to their original positions using the lateral moving mechanism 11, the longitudinal moving mechanism 12 and the lifting mechanism 13.
