Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of poultry breeding equipment technology, and particularly to the field of breeding chicken equipment, specifically a cleaning device for breeding chicken cages. Background Technology

[0002] Chickens are an important domesticated poultry species. To achieve better economic value, it is necessary to breed superior breeds of chickens to find those more suitable for market demands. A crucial aspect of the breeding process is the management of the breeding environment, especially during the chick stage. The brooding period is a critical stage for chicken growth, requiring careful attention to proper feeding and management. Sufficient nutrition, fresh feed, and appropriate temperature and humidity are also essential. Chicks have weak immune systems, necessitating effective disease prevention and control. Strengthening hygiene management is a vital step. Currently, breeding work is generally carried out in factory farming, requiring the use of chicken cages. These cages, typically made of wire mesh, accumulate feathers and dust inside over time, and the floors easily collect feces and other debris, necessitating regular cleaning. Existing chicken cages are usually cleaned manually by staff, which is cumbersome, labor-intensive, and inefficient. In particular, chicken droppings and other debris inside the floor often require removing all the chickens inside and cleaning them, or herding them to one side and cleaning them in separate areas. It is difficult to automate the cleaning of the inside. Therefore, finding a solution to address these issues is of great significance for improving chicken breeding efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a cleaning device for breeding chicken cages. By designing the structure based on the principles of chick breeding, it can promptly clean contaminants during the breeding process, especially the contaminants inside the cage, thus preventing the accumulation of contaminants and the growth of bacteria.

[0004] The technical solution of this invention is: A cleaning device for breeding chicken cages includes a cage cover, side bars, a lower side frame, and a floor. The side bars are multiple thin rods, the cage cover is a single piece of board, and the lower side frame is a quadrilateral frame with dimensions matching the cage cover. The lower side of the cage cover has multiple small holes for connecting to the side bars, and the upper side of the lower side frame has multiple small holes for connecting to the side bars. The side bars are fixed between the cage cover and the lower side frame. A floor is provided between two opposite sides of the lower side frame. The floor is composed of multiple floor rods. Below the floor rods is a contaminant recovery belt with a conveyor belt structure. The contaminant recovery belt has a scraper on its lower side. An external bracket stabilizes the contaminant recovery belt and the lower side frame, ensuring a certain gap between the contaminant recovery belt and the bottom of the floor.

[0005] Furthermore, multiple adjustable limiting rods are provided below the lower side frame, and two symmetrical cleaner fixing devices are connected below the adjustable limiting rods. A cleaner moving rod module is provided between the two cleaner fixing devices, and a cleaner corresponding to the floor is provided on the cleaner moving rod module.

[0006] Furthermore, the floor includes two symmetrical floor rod fixing blocks, designated as Floor Rod Fixing Block 1 and Floor Rod Fixing Block 2, respectively. Floor Rod Fixing Block 1 and Floor Rod Fixing Block 2 are each connected to half of the floor rod body. The floor rods connected to Floor Rod Fixing Block 1 and Floor Rod Fixing Block 2 are interleaved. A through hole is provided on the lower side frame. The side stop is divided into a supporting side stop and a movable side stop. The supporting side stop is connected to the four corners of the lower side frame and remains fixed. The bottom of the movable side stop passes through the lower side frame and connects to Floor Rod Fixing Block 1 and Floor Rod Fixing Block 2. The movable side stop has a two-section structure, with the lower and upper parts connected by a multi-functional widening section in the middle. The column is connected, and the multi-functional widened column can move up and down, driving the lower part of the movable side stop to move up and down. Floor rod fixing block one and floor rod fixing block two are both set on the inner side of the lower side frame. Floor rod fixing block one and floor rod fixing block two are fixed in relative position by the up and down movement of the lower part of the movable side stop connected to them. When floor rod fixing block one and floor rod fixing block two are both in the initial position, the floor rods of floor rod fixing block one and floor rod fixing block two are on the same horizontal plane, forming the same floor. When either floor rod fixing block one or floor rod fixing block two is in the lower position, the floor is only composed of the floor rods on the other floor rod fixing block that has not moved down.

[0007] Furthermore, the cleaner holder includes a first cleaner holder and a second cleaner holder. Both the first and second cleaner holders have a cleaner sliding groove. A movable slider with a moving rod is installed within the sliding groove. A moving rod pusher with a width greater than the movable slider is located on the rear side of the movable slider. The moving rod pusher enables horizontal displacement of the movable slider within the sliding groove. The movable slider has at least two moving rod bodies, each equipped with a synchronously moving moving rod motor. Each moving rod body has a trapezoidal thread, and all moving rod bodies have the same structure. A cleaner is mounted on each moving rod body.

[0008] Furthermore, the cleaner includes a main rod with a trapezoidal threaded hole corresponding to the moving rod body. As the moving rod body rotates synchronously, the main rod moves back and forth synchronously. Above the main rod, there are multiple cleaning heads with the spacing between them the same as the spacing between the floor rods. By adjusting the movable slider of the moving rod, the cleaning heads on the main rod move laterally and align with the floor rods corresponding to the floor rod fixing blocks that are moving downwards at this time.

[0009] Furthermore, the cleaning head includes two staggered front and rear cleaning head blocks, with a concave surface between each block. Bristles are arranged within this concave surface, and an arc-shaped section is located above the concave surface. A front and rear cleaning head flusher are respectively installed on the front and rear cleaning head blocks. The front flusher has a flushing port facing the bristles of the front cleaning head block, and the port is a linear nozzle, spraying cleaning fluid to cover the entire bristle. The rear flusher also has a flushing port facing the bristles of the rear cleaning head block, and the port is a linear nozzle, spraying cleaning fluid to cover the entire bristles of the rear cleaning head block. Both the front and rear cleaning head flushers are connected to external liquid delivery lines, which are equipped with booster pumps to obtain cleaning fluid from an external liquid tank.

[0010] Furthermore, the floor rod fixing block has a hollow structure, and the ends of the floor rods fixed inside the floor rod fixing block are all provided with worm gear nuts. All the worm gear nuts are engaged with the same floor worm. The floor worm is set inside the floor rod fixing block and has a floor motor at one end. The floor motor drives the floor worm to rotate, which in turn drives the worm gear nuts to rotate, thereby driving the entire floor rod to rotate. The section of the floor rod near the toothed nut is set inside the floor rod fixing block, and the contact surface with the floor rod fixing block is clearance fit, with a contact length of not less than 3cm.

[0011] Furthermore, the floor pole body is also provided with multiple floor pole widening sections at equal intervals. The floor pole widening sections are circular in structure, and the floor pole widening sections on two adjacent floor pole bodies are staggered.

[0012] Furthermore, the floor rod fixing block has multiple opposing rod fixing grooves in the gaps between its own floor rods. The opposing rod fixing groove is composed of two protruding ridges protruding from the surface of the floor rod fixing block. The upper part of the opposing rod fixing groove is the same as the top of the adjacent floor rod. The upper and lower parts of the opposing rod fixing groove are open grooves, which allow the floor rod of another floor rod fixing block to move freely up and down. At the top of the opening groove of the fixing groove, there are two symmetrical protrusions extending inward. When the floor rod of another floor rod fixing block moves upward, it contacts the protrusions.

[0013] Furthermore, an L-shaped floor outer end fixing buckle is provided at the bottom of the floor rod fixing block, and one end of the floor outer end fixing buckle is connected to the shaft of the rotating motor. After the floor outer end fixing buckle is rotated upward, the other end of the floor outer end fixing buckle is flush with the bottom of the floor rod body that comes with the floor rod fixing block.

[0014] The advantages of this invention are: This invention analyzes the breeding situation, especially the selection and breeding of chicks, and designs a brand-new device that can clean up contaminants generated during the breeding process, especially the floor area, to prevent chicks from being exposed to contaminants for a long time and affecting their growth.

[0015] By designing the specific structure, the floor of the chicken coop can be cleaned in batches without the chickens leaving the coop, and the coop can be directly reset after cleaning. This avoids the need for manual operation and allows for fully mechanized operation, improving cleaning efficiency and reducing the workload of personnel.

[0016] By designing the cleaning structure and adapting it to the floor structure, it can achieve better cleaning results and avoid leaving any stains on the floor.

[0017] By designing a structure for side cleaning, the sides of the chicken coop can also be cleaned. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0033] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments. It should be noted that, in this document, terms such as "upper" and "lower" are used merely for the convenience of describing the drawings and are not intended to limit the direction in actual use, nor do they necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0034] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a cleaning device for breeding chicken cages includes a cage cover 1, side bars 2, a lower side frame 4, and a floor 5. The side bars 2 are multiple thin rods, and the cage cover 1 is a single piece of board. One possible design is a length of 50-150cm and a width of 30-60cm. The lower side frame 4 is a quadrilateral frame, and its dimensions match those of the cage cover 1. The lower side of the cage cover 1 has multiple small holes for connecting to the side bars 2, and the upper side of the lower side frame 4 has multiple small holes for connecting to the side bars 2. The side bars 2 are fixed to the cage cover 1 and the lower side frame 4. Between the two opposite sides of the lower side frame 4, a floor 5 is provided; the floor 5 is composed of multiple floor rods 501; below the floor rods 501, a contaminant recovery belt 10 with a conveyor belt structure is provided; a scraper 1002 is provided on the lower side of the contaminant recovery belt 10; the contaminant recovery belt 10 and the lower side frame 4 are externally supported and stabilized by an external bracket; the external support structure can be any connecting bracket, which can serve to fix and ensure the gap, ensuring that there is a certain gap between the contaminant recovery belt 10 and the bottom of the floor 5, leaving space for the subsequent movement of the floor 5. The width of the contaminant recovery belt 10 is greater than the width of the lower side frame 4, ensuring that the chicken manure inside will not leak out of the area of ​​the contaminant recovery belt 10. After the recovery belt roller 1001 rotates to the scraper 1002, the chicken manure and other contaminants on the contaminant recovery belt 10 are scraped off by the scraper 1002, and a collection container for collecting the scraped-off contaminants is set up next to it for periodic processing. A corresponding controller is also provided to control all electrical and hydraulic components of this device.

[0035] The inside of the cage cover 1 can be equipped with structures such as lights and heat insulators, as well as a camera for observing the breeding situation inside. An opening can also be provided on the cage cover 1 for inserting a feed trough and adding feed and water.

[0036] Multiple adjustable limiting rods 9 are provided below the lower side frame 4. Two symmetrical cleaner fixtures 6 are connected below the adjustable limiting rods 9, and a cleaner movement rod module 8 is provided between the two cleaner fixtures 6. A cleaner 7 corresponding to the floor 5 is provided on the cleaner movement rod module 8. The adjustable limiting rods 9 are connected to the lower side frame 4 and the cleaner fixtures 6 both above and below via bolts or other connecting mechanisms. Multiple different models of adjustable limiting rods 9 are available, allowing for disassembly and replacement with adjustable limiting rods 9 of different lengths to adjust the distance between the cleaner fixtures 6 and the lower side frame 4.

[0037] The floor 5 includes two symmetrical floor rod fixing blocks 501, namely floor rod fixing block one 5011 and floor rod fixing block two 5012, and floor rod fixing block one 5011 and floor rod fixing block two 5022 are respectively connected to half of the floor rod body 501. The floor rod bodies 501 connected to floor rod fixing block one 5011 and floor rod bodies 501 connected to floor rod fixing block two 5021 are interleaved, as shown. Figure 6 As shown (for ease of observation of the staggered effect, floor rod fixing block 1 5021 and floor rod fixing block 2 5022 are staggered vertically; this is not actually the case); a through hole is provided in the lower side frame 4. The side stop 2 is divided into a supporting side stop 201 and a movable side stop 202. The supporting side stop 201 is connected to the four corners of the lower side frame 4 and kept fixed. The bottom of the movable side stop 202 passes through the lower side frame 4 and connects to floor rod fixing block 1 5021 and floor rod fixing block 2 5022. The movable side stop 202 has a two-section structure. The lower part and the upper part of the movable side stop 202 are connected by the middle multi-functional widening column 3, and the multi-functional widening column 3 can move up and down, causing the lower part of the movable side stop 202 to move up and down. Figure 4-5 As shown, both floor rod fixing block 1 5021 and floor rod fixing block 2 5022 are located inside the lower side frame 4. The floor rod fixing block 1 5021 and floor rod fixing block 2 5012 are fixed in relative position by the up and down movement of the lower part of their respective connected movable side stop bars 202. When both floor rod fixing block 1 5021 and floor rod fixing block 2 5022 are in the initial position, the floor rods 501 of floor rod fixing block 1 5011 and floor rod fixing block 2 5022 are on the same horizontal plane, forming the same floor 5. When either floor rod fixing block 1 5021 or floor rod fixing block 2 5022 is in the lower position, the floor 5 is composed only of the floor rods 501 on the other floor rod fixing block 502 that has not moved down.

[0038] The function of the multi-functional widening column 3 is to reduce the spacing of the side bars 2 in the middle, thereby preventing the breeding chicks from squeezing the middle of the side bars 2 to become wider as they grow to a certain size, allowing other chicks to escape from that area. Furthermore, since the breeding chicks, during their activities, not only will their own excrement contaminate the floor 5, but they will also rub some feathers and other contaminants onto the lower side guardrail 2. In order to clean these contaminants from the bottom area of ​​the side guardrail 2, a side guardrail cleaning brush 301 is provided at the bottom of the multi-functional widened column 3, and a side guardrail cleaning brush telescopic cylinder 302 is provided in the middle of the multi-functional widened column 3. The multi-functional widened column 3 is equipped with a hydraulic telescopic mechanism, which, through connection with an external hydraulic mechanism, enables the side guardrail cleaning brush telescopic cylinder 302 to move and remain stationary within the multi-functional widened column 3. When the side guardrail cleaning brush telescopic cylinder 302 moves downward, the contaminants attached to the lower side guardrail 2 will be scraped off by the upper side of the lower side frame 4. The side guardrail cleaning brush 301 is a ring of disinfectant sponge with disinfectant solution. After moving downward to the bottom, it disinfects the contaminants scraped off the lower side frame 4 by contacting them, thus preventing the growth of bacteria. An alternative implementation is to install a container in the multifunctional widened column 3 to store disinfectant, and to install a capillary opening on the lower side of the multifunctional widened column 3 so that the disinfectant in the container does not overflow directly, but slowly moves to the opening of the capillary and stops, and when the disinfectant in the container comes into contact with the upper part of the side baffle cleaning brush 301 through the capillary, it is absorbed by the side baffle cleaning brush 301, so that the side baffle cleaning brush 301 is wetted with disinfectant.

[0039] like Figure 7-10 As shown, the cleaner holder 6 includes a first cleaner holder 601 and a second cleaner holder 602. Both the first cleaner holder 601 and the second cleaner holder 602 have a cleaner sliding groove 603. A movable slider 802 is installed within the sliding groove 603. A rod pusher 803 with a width greater than the movable slider 802 is located on the rear side of the movable slider 802. The rod pusher 803 enables the horizontal displacement of the movable slider 802 within the sliding groove 603. The movable slider 802 has at least two rod bodies 804, each with a synchronously moving rod motor 801. Each rod body 804 has a trapezoidal thread and the structure of each rod body 804 is identical. A cleaner 7 is installed on each rod body 804.

[0040] like Figure 11As shown, the cleaner 7 includes a main cleaner rod 701 with a square shaft. The main cleaner rod 701 has a trapezoidal threaded hole corresponding to the moving rod body 804. As the moving rod body 804 rotates synchronously, the main cleaner rod 701 moves synchronously back and forth. Above the main cleaner rod 701, multiple cleaning heads are provided, with the spacing between the cleaning heads being the same as the spacing between the spaced floor rods 501. By adjusting the movable slider 802 of the moving rod, the cleaning heads on the main cleaner rod 701 move laterally and align with the floor rods 501 corresponding to the floor rod fixing blocks 502 that are moving downwards at this time. When the floor rods 501 are cleaned in this round, the main cleaner rod 701 moves horizontally and then aligns with a new position, allowing another set of floor rods 501 to align with the cleaning heads.

[0041] like Figure 10-14 As shown, the cleaning head includes two staggered front cleaning head blocks 702 and rear cleaning head blocks 703, with a concave surface between each block. Brush bristles 706 are provided within the concave surface, and an arc-shaped segment is provided above the concave surface. Figure 14 As shown, the system effectively allows the floor rod 501 to move in and out smoothly. During the process, the front block 702 and the rear block 703 of the cleaning head undergo slight deformation. Since the front block 702 and the rear block 703 are not on the same plane, they will not collide with each other when restoring their deformation, reducing the risk of damage. A front flushing device 705 and a rear flushing device 704 are respectively provided on the front block 702 and the rear block 703 of the cleaning head. The front flushing device 705 has a flushing port facing the cleaning head. The front bristles 706 of the front block 702 have a linear spray nozzle, and the sprayed cleaning fluid covers the entire bristles 706. The rear flusher 704 of the cleaning head has a spray nozzle facing the bristles 706 of the rear block 703 of the cleaning head, and the sprayed cleaning fluid covers the entire bristles 706 of the rear block 703 of the cleaning head. Both the front flusher 705 and the rear flusher 704 of the cleaning head are connected to an external liquid delivery line, which is equipped with a booster pump to obtain cleaning fluid from an external liquid tank.

[0042] like Figure 13As shown, the floor rod fixing block 502 has a hollow structure. The ends of the floor rods 501 fixed inside the floor rod fixing block 502 are all equipped with worm gear nuts 5012. All worm gear nuts 5012 mesh with the same floor worm gear 503. The floor worm gear 503 is located inside the floor rod fixing block 502 and has a floor motor 504 at one end. The floor motor 504 drives the floor worm gear 503 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm gear nuts 5012 to rotate, thereby driving the entire floor rod 501 to rotate. A section of the floor rod 501 near the worm gear nuts 5012 is located inside the floor rod fixing block 502, and the contact surface with the floor rod fixing block 502 is clearance-fitted, with a contact length of not less than 3 cm. In some embodiments, a section of the floor rod 501 can also be located on the back side of the worm gear nuts 5012 and embedded in the other side wall of the floor rod fixing block 502 to improve the lateral stability of the floor rod 501.

[0043] like Figure 7 As shown, the floor pole 501 is also provided with multiple floor pole widening sections 5011 at equal intervals. The floor pole widening sections 5011 are circular in structure, and the floor pole widening sections 5011 on adjacent floor poles 501 are staggered. The purpose of providing floor pole widening sections 5011 is to effectively increase the standing surface of the chicks and reduce the probability of the chicks' feet being injured.

[0044] The floor rod fixing block 502 has multiple opposing rod fixing grooves 506 in the gaps between its own floor rod body 501. The opposing rod fixing groove 506 is composed of two protruding ridges protruding from the surface of the floor rod fixing block 502. The upper part of the opposing rod fixing groove 506 is the same as the top of the adjacent floor rod body 501. The upper and lower parts of the opposing rod fixing groove 506 are open grooves, which are used to allow the floor rod body 501 of the other floor rod fixing block 502 to move freely up and down. At the top of the open groove of the fixing groove 506, there are two symmetrical protrusions 5061 extending inward. When the floor rod body 501 of the other floor rod fixing block 502 moves upward, it contacts the protrusions 5061.

[0045] An L-shaped floor outer end fixing buckle 505 is provided at the bottom of the floor rod fixing block 502, and one end of the floor outer end fixing buckle 505 is connected to the shaft of the rotating motor. After the floor outer end fixing buckle 505 is rotated upward, the other end of the floor outer end fixing buckle 505 is flush with the bottom of the floor rod body 501 that comes with the floor rod fixing block 502. This is to avoid the floor rod body 501 being in a slightly bent state because it has a certain length and has chickens on it. If necessary, a locking mechanism can also be provided on the side of the floor outer end fixing buckle 505. When the floor outer end fixing buckle 505 moves to the uppermost position, it locks from the side to achieve fixation.

[0046] The method of using this invention includes at least the following: When using this invention, breeding chicks are placed on the floor 5 through the cage cover 1. During daily operation, the recycling belt roller 1001 is turned on at set intervals (e.g., once a day) to rotate the contaminant recycling belt 10. The scraper 1002 scrapes away chicken manure and other contaminants from the surface, and the contaminants are periodically collected through the recycling frame below. Simultaneously, at set intervals (e.g., once every 5 days), the corresponding multi-functional widened column 3 drives the floor rod fixing block 1 (5021) on one side to move downwards. Before moving, the floor outer end fixing buckle 505 of the floor rod fixing block 2 (5022) must be released to avoid obstructing the downward movement of the floor rod fixing block 1 (5021). At this time, its own protrusion 5061 touches the floor rod body 501 of the floor rod fixing block 2 (5022), but because the protrusion is very small, it can pass over the floor rod body 501 of the floor rod fixing block 2 (5022) without being blocked. At this time, the floor rod body 5061 on the floor rod fixing block 1 (5021)... 01 falls precisely between the front block 702 and the rear block 703 of the cleaning head, then the motor 801 is activated, causing the moving rod body 804 to drive the cleaning head to move horizontally, cleaning contaminants on the floor rod 501 from one side to the other. At this time, the rear flush 704 and the front flush 705 can also be activated to spray and clean the area where the floor rod 501 is located, facilitating the brush 706 to scrub the contaminants on the floor rod 501. When it reaches the end, the floor rod fixing block 5... After cleaning the floor rod 501 on 021 is complete, if it is not clean, reverse the movement rod motor 801 and repeat the cleaning process at least once until it is clean. Then, floor rod fixing block one 5021 moves upward into the opposite rod fixing groove 506 of floor rod fixing block two 5022 and contacts the protrusion 5061. At this time, the floor outer end fixing buckle 505 of floor rod fixing block two 5022 is rotated upward and fixed, ensuring that the lower part of the floor rod 501 of floor rod fixing block one 5021 is raised into place. Then, if floor rod fixing block two 5022 needs to be cleaned, repeat the above steps and adjust the lateral position of the corresponding cleaning head to ensure that it corresponds to the new position.

[0047] During the cleaning process, the floor rod 501 is rotated by the floor motor 504 to improve the cleanliness of the cleaning. In particular, when using a floor rod 501 with a widened section 5011, the floor rod 501 must be rotated 90 degrees and then kept stationary while the cleaning head cleans.

[0048] During the cleaning process, since the spacing between the floor poles 501 is smaller than the width of the chicks' feet, even if half of the floor poles 501 are missing, the chicks can still stand on the remaining floor poles 501 without falling through the gaps. Furthermore, the floor pole fixing blocks 502 rise and fall slowly, so they will not injure or frighten the chicks and will not have a negative impact on the breeding process.

[0049] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present invention. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the present invention.
