Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of poultry hatching, and in particular relates to a shell-breaking device for improving the hatching rate of eggs. Background Art
[0002] During the incubation process of eggs, the chicks need to peck their way out of the eggshells. In actual situations, the chicks may not be able to break out of the shells smoothly due to inappropriate temperature and humidity, poor ventilation or poor development of the chicks. At this time, artificial delivery is needed. The gap that has been formed at the pecking position of the chicks is gradually enlarged by tools such as tweezers to reduce the pecking pressure of the chicks. However, the manual shell breaking method requires a high level of professionalism of the operator, and manual operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
[0003] The prior art discloses a shell-breaking device for improving the hatching rate of eggs for poultry hatching, and the application publication number is CN111165389A. The application is provided with a detection device, a wrapping piece and an egg-breaking piece. The position of the hole to be hatched is detected by the first arc plate and the rubber head in the detection device, and the hole is enlarged by the first flap arranged in pairs in the egg-breaking piece. The second arc plates on both sides are opened to crack the eggshell to help the chicks to hatch. The chicks that have hatched will fall on the disc below, and the second arc plates automatically move together to ensure that the chicks will not fall out. However, in the application, the chicks are forced to hatch by directly tearing the eggshells. The shell-breaking action is too violent, and the chicks may die due to being exposed to the external environment too quickly, and the chicks that have hatched directly fall into the disc below, which will also cause certain damage to the chicks. The process of hatching and hatching of chicks is a necessary exercise for the chicks, which can help them enhance the basic functions and immune system in the body and better adapt to the environment. Therefore, excessive human intervention in the process of chicks hatching is inappropriate and is not conducive to the survival and growth of the chicks.

After the assisted shell breaking, the eggs can enter the hatching area for subsequent hatching operations under the push of the first electric push rod, thereby effectively improving the hatching rate of the eggs; the detection assembly identifies and detects the position of the chick pecking the shell on the surface of the egg through a laser detector, and pushes the auxiliary shell breaking hook down through the second electric push rod, so that the auxiliary shell breaking hook enters the broken position formed by pecking the shell, and the second electric push rod continues to drive the auxiliary shell breaking hook to rise, so that the auxiliary shell breaking hook breaks the edge of the broken hole, increases the area of the edge of the broken hole, thereby reducing the pressure of the chick pecking the shell, which helps the chick to hatch smoothly.

[0017] Furthermore, the controller adopts Siemens S7-400.
[0018] The beneficial effects achieved by the present invention using the above structure are as follows:
[0019] (1) By providing an outer support cylinder and an inner support cylinder, the interior of the device is divided into a central incubation area and a surrounding auxiliary egg-breaking area. Eggs that are difficult for chicks to hatch can be placed in the auxiliary egg-breaking area, and the eggs can be assisted in hatching by the auxiliary shell-breaking assembly. After the auxiliary shell-breaking, the eggs can enter the incubation area under the push of the first electric push rod for subsequent hatching operations, which effectively improves the hatching rate of the eggs;
[0020] (2) The detection component uses a laser detector to identify and detect the position of the chick pecking the shell on the egg surface, and uses the second electric push rod to push the auxiliary shell-breaking hook down, so that the auxiliary shell-breaking hook enters the crack position formed by pecking the shell. The second electric push rod continues to drive the auxiliary shell-breaking hook up, so that the auxiliary shell-breaking hook breaks the edge of the crack, increasing the edge area of the crack, thereby reducing the pressure of the chick pecking the shell, which helps the chick to break the shell smoothly;
[0021] (3) When the egg-turning drum drives the eggs to rotate, multiple laser detectors measure the distance between it and the eggshell surface in real time. When the distance value suddenly changes, it is the position of the hole caused by the chicken pecking the shell, which achieves the technical effect of accurately locating the position of the eggshell surface pecking. At the same time, when the auxiliary shell-breaking component expands the crack area, the laser detector can still continue to monitor the changes at the crack. When the laser detector detects that the crack changes more drastically, it means that the chick is about to break out of the shell. At this time, the first electric push rod is automatically started to push the egg onto the movable screen plate and wait for hatching. If the laser detector detects that the crack position has not changed, it means that the chick is still unable to break out of the shell by itself, and the auxiliary shell-breaking component needs to further expand the crack position to achieve the technical effect of flexibly controlling the chicken's shell-breaking process.
[0022] (4) The first electric push rod realizes the conversion at different egg positions as the rotating closed ring rotates. When the egg reaches the hatching condition, the first electric push rod will rotate to the position of the egg and push the egg to the movable screen plate through the push pad. The push pad is made of elastic sponge material to effectively prevent the egg from being damaged;
[0023] (5) The upper rotating motor and the lower rotating motor respectively control the upper rotating gear and the lower rotating gear to rotate, and the upper rotating gear and the lower rotating gear can respectively drive the rotating outer ring and the rotating closed ring to rotate, thereby achieving the technical effect that the detection component, the auxiliary shell breaking component and the first electric push rod can be converted between different egg positions, and the structure is simple and reasonable;
[0024] (6) The detection component and the auxiliary shell-breaking component respectively locate the position of each egg through the upper movable electric sheet. When the upper movable electric sheet is in contact with the upper positioning electric sheet, the controller can determine that the detection component or the auxiliary shell-breaking component has moved to the top of the egg, which is convenient for subsequent detection and auxiliary shell-breaking operations, and achieves the accurate positioning effect of the detection component and the auxiliary shell-breaking component. Similarly, the first electric push rod also locates the position of each egg through the lower movable electric sheet. When the lower movable electric sheet under the first electric push rod is in contact with the lower positioning electric sheet, the controller can determine that the first electric push rod is arranged relative to the egg, which is convenient for the push pad to push the egg. When the lower movable electric sheet under the placement port is in contact with the lower positioning electric sheet, it can be explained that the placement port is arranged relative to the external egg entry port, which is convenient for the user to place the egg into the device.
[0025] (7) The device adopts a circular centralized structure. The eggs to be hatched are distributed in a circle around the incubation area, which can accommodate more eggs. It has a compact structure, saves space, and is easy to use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0051] The detection component 33 includes a detection connection block 331, a detection plate 332 and a laser detector 333. The detection connection block 331 is connected between the rotating outer ring 31 and the rotating inner ring 32. The detection plate 332 is fixedly arranged on the lower wall of the detection connection block 331. The laser detector 333 is arranged in a linear array on the lower wall of the detection plate 332. The inner wall of the rotating inner ring 32 is provided with an upper movable electric sheet 321. The number of the upper movable electric sheets 321 is two. The upper movable electric sheets 321 are respectively arranged opposite to the movable groove 341 and the detection connection block 331. When the rotating inner ring 32 rotates, the upper movable electric sheet 321 contacts with the upper positioning electric sheet 1421 respectively.

[0053] The specific usage steps are as follows:
[0054] During the incubation process, chicks need to go through the process of pecking the shells. However, due to poor environment (such as inappropriate temperature and humidity, poor ventilation, etc.) or factors of the chicks themselves (malnutrition or abnormal egg position, etc.), the chicks start to peck the shells but cannot successfully break out of the shells. At this time, the breeder needs to ensure that the pecking process of the chicks has lasted for a sufficient time (after 24 hours of observation). If the chicks still have not pecked the shells, manual intervention is required.
[0055] The device is in an initial state, and the lower movable electric sheet 213 below the placement opening 211 will contact the lower positioning electric sheet 131. At this time, the placement opening 211 is respectively arranged opposite to the external egg entry opening 151. The user can open the sliding plate 2111 outside the placement opening 211, and place the eggs that the chicks have started to peck at the shells but cannot successfully come out of the shells into the paired egg-turning rollers 122 through the placement opening 211 and the external egg entry opening 151, and ensure that the position on the surface of the eggs where the chicks have started to peck at the shells is placed inward. Under normal circumstances, the chicks will start to peck at the shells from the large end (blunt end) of the eggshell, because the air chamber at this position is larger, which is convenient for the chicks to breathe. However, a few chicks will start to peck at the shells from the small end (sharp end). It is necessary to correctly place the eggs on the egg-turning roller 122 according to the actual situation. After placement, the eggs will be limited between the limit blocks 5 set on the left and right sides to prevent the eggs from rolling off the egg-turning roller 122 and causing damage. Figure 5 and Fig.12 shown.
[0056] The device is provided with an outer support tube 15 and an inner support tube 14, so as to divide the interior of the device into an incubation area inside the inner support tube 14 and an auxiliary egg-breaking area between the outer support tube 15 and the inner support tube 14. Eggs that are difficult for the chicks to hatch are placed in the auxiliary egg-breaking area. The user takes out the humidifying tank 6 at this time, adds clean water into the humidifying tank 6, and then inserts the humidifying tank 6 into the tank socket 1231. At this time, the humidifying tank 6 is located below the egg-turning drum 122, so that the eggs maintain a stable humidity, which is helpful for the chicks to hatch. After placement, the user covers the closing cover 4 on the upper end of the outer support tube 15, and starts the outer heat preservation lamp 143 and the inner heat preservation lamp 144 through the controller 7, so as to ensure the temperature and light conditions of the incubation process. At this time, the eggs enter the normal incubation process.
[0057] During the normal incubation of eggs, the egg turning drum 122 will rotate in one direction driven by the drum motor. At this time, the eggs placed on the egg turning drum 122 begin to turn over. At this time, the upper rotating motor 153 is started, driving the upper rotating gear 1531 to rotate. The upper rotating teeth 311 are meshed with the upper rotating gear 1531. Therefore, the rotating outer ring 31 will rotate with the rotation of the upper rotating gear 1531, thereby driving the detection component 33 and the auxiliary shell breaking component 34 to rotate. The detection component 33 moves to the top of each egg respectively. When the detection component 33 moves to the top of one of the eggs, the egg is continuously turned over with the rotation of the egg turning drum 122. At this time, the detection component 33 measures the distance between it and the eggshell surface in real time through multiple laser detectors 333. When there is a sudden change in the distance value, it means that the eggshell surface is uneven here, which means that this is the hole position caused by the chicken pecking the shell. The laser detector 333 transmits the distance data to the controller 7 for storage to facilitate the subsequent auxiliary shell breaking operation.
[0058] The laser detector 333 can measure the hole condition on the surface of a certain egg multiple times. If the surface condition of the egg obtained by multiple measurements has not changed, it means that the chick in the egg has difficulty pecking the shell and cannot successfully come out of the shell. At this time, an auxiliary shell-breaking operation is required. First, the egg-turning drum 122 under the egg stops running to ensure that the chick is in an upward position when pecking the shell. At this time, the auxiliary shell-breaking component 34 will automatically move to the top of the egg, and the second electric push rod 344 will automatically start. The second electric push rod 344 will push the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 down, so that the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 can enter the hole position formed by pecking the shell. The initial state of the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 is as shown in FIG. Fig.10As shown, the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 is limited by the block 3452 and can only rotate upward. If the position of the breach is small, the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 will be pressed by the edge of the breach and rotate upward when it contacts the breach, thereby facilitating the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 to enter the breach. After entering the breach, the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 will reset under the action of the torsion spring. At this time, the second electric push rod 344 drives the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 to rise, and the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 breaks the eggshell at the edge of the breach, thereby increasing the area of the breach. At this time, the egg-turning drum 122 drives the egg to rotate, and the second electric push rod 344 repeats the above-mentioned lifting operation, so that the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 continues to break the edge of the breach, further increasing the area of the edge of the breach, thereby reducing the pressure on the chicken to pecking the shell, which helps the chicken to break the shell smoothly. , generally, the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 only needs to expand the crack to a limited extent. After the auxiliary shell-breaking process is completed, the egg can remain still on the egg-turning drum 122 for a period of time, and the detection component 33 continues to measure and monitor the egg surface. If the chick is still not found to continue pecking the shell, the auxiliary shell-breaking component 34 will continue to expand the crack area on the egg surface until the chick is able to break out of the shell; the distance that the second electric push rod 344 drives the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 to descend can be determined by the distance data measured by the laser measuring instrument, so as to avoid the auxiliary shell-breaking hook 346 descending too much or too little, causing damage to the chick or failing to enter the crack smoothly. The laser multi-point distance measurement method adopted by the laser detector 333 belongs to the prior art and will not be elaborated here.
[0059] When the laser detector 333 detects that the change at the breaking point is more drastic, it means that the chick is about to break out of the shell. At this time, the lower rotating motor 132 will start automatically and drive the lower rotating gear 1321 to rotate. The lower rotating gear 1321 is meshed with the lower rotating teeth 212. Therefore, the rotating closed circle 21 will rotate with the rotation of the lower rotating gear 1321, thereby driving the first electric push rod 22 to rotate, so that the first electric push rod 22 automatically rotates to the position of the egg that is about to break the shell. The first electric push rod 22 starts and extends the push pad 221. The push pad 221 will push the egg into the position of the movable screen plate 16. The chick will complete the shell breaking process on the upper surface of the movable screen plate 16. The push pad 221 is made of elastic latex sponge material, which can effectively prevent damage to the egg.
[0060] The detection component 33 and the auxiliary shell-breaking component 34 respectively locate the position of each egg through the upper moving electric sheet 321. When the upper moving electric sheet 321 touches the upper positioning electric sheet 1421 respectively, the controller 7 can determine that the detection component 33 or the auxiliary shell-breaking component 34 has moved to the top of the egg, which is convenient for subsequent detection and auxiliary shell-breaking operations, and realizes the accurate positioning effect of the detection component 33 and the auxiliary shell-breaking component 34. Similarly, the first electric push rod 22 also locates the position of each egg through the lower moving electric sheet 213. When the lower moving electric sheet 213 below the first electric push rod 22 touches the lower positioning electric sheet 131, the controller 7 can determine that the first electric push rod 22 is arranged relative to the egg at this time, which is convenient for the push pad 221 to push the egg. When the lower moving electric sheet 213 below the placement port 211 touches the lower positioning electric sheet 131, it can be explained that the placement port 211 is arranged relative to the external egg entry port 151, which is convenient for the user to place eggs into the device.
[0061] The device adopts a circular centralized structure, and the eggs to be hatched are distributed in a ring around the incubation area, which can accommodate more eggs, has a compact structure, saves space, and is easy to use.
[0062] The above is the overall workflow of the present invention, and you can repeat this step next time you use it.
[0063] The present invention and its embodiments are described above, and such description is not restrictive. The drawings show only one embodiment of the present invention, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if ordinary technicians in the field are inspired by it, without departing from the purpose of the invention, they can design a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution without creativity, which should belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
