Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to breeding equipment, in particular to breeding equipment for both brooding and growing chicks. Background Art

[0002] As is known, since chicks and adult chickens have very different physiques and eating habits, it is usually impossible to raise them in cages of the same specifications. In addition, chicks change their physique as they age, and cages that are originally suitable for them may have an adverse effect on their eating habits, ultimately leading to slow growth.

[0003] There is an urgent need for a mechanized breeding cage that can be used for both chick breeding and adult chicken breeding. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a dual-purpose breeding equipment for raising chicks and growing them.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is: A dual-purpose feeding equipment for brooding and rearing chicks comprises a bottom plate, a side plate, a longitudinal partition, a transverse partition, a top plate, an end plate and a spring door. The bottom plate is provided with longitudinal partitions and transverse partitions in a vertical and horizontal manner, so as to divide the cage into a plurality of independent feeding spaces. A top plate is provided on the top surfaces of the longitudinal partitions and the transverse partitions, and side plates are provided on both sides of the top plate and the bottom plate. A plurality of windows are equidistantly provided on the side plates, and spring doors are provided on the upper parts of the windows, and feeding grilles are provided on the lower parts of the windows. A movable baffle is provided on the outer side of the spring door through a plurality of fixing clips. When the height of the movable baffle needs to be adjusted, the fixing clip is first removed, and then the movable baffle is manually moved, and then the movable baffle is fixed to the spring door by the fixing clip again. The advantage is that the movable baffle can block the upper part of the feeding grille, which can just block the normal sight of the chicks, so that the gap height of the feeding grille is just suitable for the chicks to extend their heads obliquely downward to eat, and the chicks will not feel that they can leave the feeding cage here. The front and rear ends of the top plate, the bottom plate and the side plates are all provided with an end plate; A plurality of stepping rods are arranged in parallel between the end plates and at a position higher than the bottom plate for the adult chickens to stand.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom plate is a wire mesh with 11-13 meshes, that is, a wire mesh with a mesh size of about 1 cm, which is convenient for dropping feces without causing the chicks to step on empty space.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the pedal rod is an aluminum alloy rod with a diameter of 5-8 cm, and the pedal rod is 8-12 cm away from the bottom plate. The claws of various types of adult chickens are larger than 7 cm, so a pedal rod slightly larger than 5 cm is suitable for adult chickens to grasp; the pedal rod is set at a distance of about one chicken claw from the bottom plate to prevent adult chickens from getting their claws stuck and chicks from getting their necks stuck.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom plate, side plates, longitudinal partitions, transverse partitions, top plate, end plates and movable baffles are all made of metal mesh, which is convenient for observing the internal conditions of the breeding cage and is ventilated.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the outer surfaces of the bottom plate, side plates, longitudinal partitions, transverse partitions, top plates, end plates, spring doors and movable baffles are all formed with a zinc layer by hot-dip galvanizing, which has the effect of corrosion resistance and wear resistance.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the outer surfaces of the bottom plate, side plates, longitudinal partitions, transverse partitions, top plates, end plates, spring doors and movable baffles are polished smooth to prevent adult chickens or chicks from being stabbed.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, feeding foot pedals higher than the bottom plate are provided on both sides of the bottom plate. Since the chickens' heads will extend out of the breeding cage when eating, the bottom plate made of metal mesh will inevitably lead to insufficient local supporting force, which will eventually cause the chickens to be distracted to maintain body balance when eating, affecting their eating efficiency. The use of feeding foot pedals can ensure that the chickens stand steadily.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the left and right sides of the end plate and the transverse partition are each provided with an installation groove for installing the drinking water pipe for adult chickens and the drinking water pipe for chicks. The drinking water pipe for adult chickens or the drinking water pipe for chicks can be moved up and down along the installation groove, and the lifting and lowering of the drinking water pipe for adult chickens or the drinking water pipe for chicks can be achieved by an external lifting mechanism. Automatic drinking bowls are equidistantly arranged on the drinking water pipe for adult chickens and the drinking water pipe for chicks.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, a feed trough is provided on the outer side of the bottom of the side plate for feeding feed.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: a bottom plate with a smaller aperture is used in combination with a stepping rod, so that the bottom plate is suitable for chicks to walk on but does not affect the defecation of adult chickens; and the setting of the stepping rod meets the grasping needs of adult chickens.

[0017] The specific implementation of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: like Figure 1As shown, the equipment includes a bottom plate, side plates, longitudinal partitions, transverse partitions, a top plate, an end plate and a spring door. The bottom plate is vertically and horizontally provided with longitudinal partitions and transverse partitions to facilitate dividing the cage into multiple independent feeding spaces. A top plate is commonly provided on the top surfaces of the longitudinal partitions and the transverse partitions, and side plates are commonly provided on both sides of the top plate and the bottom plate. Multiple windows are equidistantly provided on the side plates, and a spring door is installed on the upper part of the window, and a feeding grille is installed on the lower part of the window. A movable baffle is provided on the outer side of the spring door through a plurality of fixing clips. When the height of the movable baffle needs to be adjusted, the fixing clip is first removed, and then the movable baffle is manually moved, and then the movable baffle is fixed to the spring door using the fixing clip again. The advantage is that the movable baffle can block the upper part of the feeding grille, which can just block the normal sight of the chicks, so that the gap height of the feeding grille is just suitable for the chicks to extend their heads obliquely downward to eat, and the chicks will not feel that they can leave the feeding cage here. The front and rear ends of the top plate, the bottom plate and the side plates are commonly provided with an end plate.

[0018] The bottom plate, side plate, longitudinal partition, transverse partition, top plate, end plate and movable baffle are all made of metal mesh, which is convenient for observing the internal situation of the breeding cage and is ventilated. The outer surfaces of the bottom plate, side plate, longitudinal partition, transverse partition, top plate, end plate, spring door and movable baffle are all formed with a zinc layer by hot-dip galvanizing, which has the effect of corrosion resistance and wear resistance. The outer surfaces of the bottom plate, side plate, longitudinal partition, transverse partition, top plate, end plate, spring door and movable baffle are polished smooth to prevent stabbing of adult chickens or chicks. Feeding pedals higher than the bottom plate are set on both sides of the bottom plate. Since the chicken's head has to extend out of the breeding cage when eating, the bottom plate made of metal mesh will inevitably lead to insufficient local support force, which will eventually lead to the chicken's need to be distracted to maintain body balance when eating, affecting the eating efficiency. The use of feeding pedals can ensure that the chicken stands steadily. The left and right sides of the end plate and the transverse partition are each provided with an installation groove for installing the drinking water pipe for adult chickens and the drinking water pipe for chicks. The drinking water pipe for adult chickens or the drinking water pipe for chicks can be moved up and down along the installation groove. The lifting and lowering of the drinking water pipe for adult chickens or the drinking water pipe for chicks can be realized by an external lifting mechanism. Automatic drinking water bowls are evenly arranged on the drinking water pipe for adult chickens and the drinking water pipe for chicks. A feed trough is arranged on the outer side of the bottom of the side plate for feeding feed.

[0019] A plurality of stepping rods are arranged in parallel between the end plates and above the bottom plate for the chickens to stand on. The bottom plate is a 12-mesh wire mesh. The stepping rods are aluminum alloy rods with a diameter of 7 cm and are 10 cm away from the bottom plate.

[0020] The above embodiments and descriptions are only for illustrating the principles and best embodiments of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention may be subject to various changes and improvements, all of which fall within the scope of the present invention to be protected.
