Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of breeding equipment, and in particular to a multi-track flexible driving structure under complex working conditions. Background Art

[0002] At present, the development level of vertical farming in China is already very high, and the equipment is developing towards saving floor space, labor and electricity. The existing feeding trolleys are mostly ground-rail feeding trolleys and single-row cage feeding trolleys. The tracks of the ground-rail feeding trolleys will occupy the aisle area, and the track legs will occupy the aisle operating space, which is not conducive to manual operation. The single-row cage feeding trolleys have two tracks for each row of cages, which makes manual operation cumbersome and consumes more electricity, resulting in higher costs.

[0003] The Chinese patent announcement number is CN118575768A, and its name is a feeding system with adaptive cage height, which includes a feeder capable of feeding into the feeding trough of the feeding cage. The feeder includes a large side panel, a plurality of feeding boxes fixedly mounted on the large side panel, at least one driving feeding group and a plurality of driven feeding groups, each driving feeding group or driven feeding group corresponds to a row of feeding cages, one of which is a driving feeding group fixedly mounted below the large side panel, capable of driving the large side panel and the feeding box to move along the corresponding row of feeding cages, and the driven feeding group is floatingly mounted below the large side panel, capable of moving along the corresponding row of feeding cages with the movement of the large side panel. The present invention can float to a position that adapts to the height of the cage feeding trough, so that each material discharge channel has no height difference relative to the cage, thereby achieving uniform feeding; multiple rows of cages do not need to be uniformly leveled, which reduces labor and saves costs;

[0004] In the above patent, although the height of the cage feeding trough can be adapted by self-floating, there are the following disadvantages when using it:

[0005] The device is provided with two driving and feeding groups and has more top rails and floating devices, which results in a more complex overall structure of the device, higher manufacturing cost, and higher control accuracy requirements, which is not conducive to early manufacturing and later use and maintenance.

[0006] The device is equipped with two sets of driving feeding groups, and the multiple rows of cages are not adjusted, and the height difference between them is large. When the height and angle differences of the top track of the cage are more complicated, due to the limited flexibility of the large side panel, the wheels of the driving feeding group will leave the top track and slip.

[0009] The driving mechanism includes a transmission assembly arranged in the middle area of ​​the moving beam, and a plurality of rollers symmetrically arranged at the lower part of the moving beam for rolling on the feeding cage body.

[0021] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0022] 1. In the present invention, a driving shaft is driven to rotate by a power source, and a transmission structure composed of a driven shaft and a flexible transmission member is used to sequentially transmit the torque of the driving shaft to a plurality of groups of rollers symmetrically distributed on both sides of the power source, thereby driving the rollers to rotate and realizing stable movement of the device. When the rollers are in motion, even if there is a certain height deviation or a certain angle deflection between the rollers, the driven shaft can still drive the rollers to move normally through the flexible transmission member. This provides great convenience for adapting to complex working conditions, such as the diverse layout of feeding cages and the complex working conditions between guide rails. In addition, the design of the multi-track flexible driving structure can adapt to different feeding environments and needs through its unique driving and moving mechanism, and realize efficient and flexible feed transportation and management.

[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a multi-track flexible driving structure under complex working conditions is used to feed several groups of spaced-apart feeding cages 1. In a specific embodiment, the feeding cages 1 can be multiple groups; and the feeding cages 1 are arranged along the extension direction of the multi-track flexible driving structure;

[0035] Each group of feeding cages 1 is provided with a feeding trough, the number of which matches the number of feeding cages 1 in the corresponding group, and the feeding troughs are horizontally distributed along the extension direction of the feeding cages 1. The bottom of the feeding cages 1 is provided with an adjustment foot. When the feeding cages 1 are laid out, it is necessary to pay attention to distributing them at equal intervals. When the ground is uneven, the support height of the feeding cages 1 can be adjusted by adjusting the foot, ensuring that the height difference between the feeding cages 1 is not too large.

[0036] Generally speaking, the height difference between them is within one centimeter;

[0037] In the present application, the multi-track flexible driving structure under complex working conditions includes a driving mechanism and a moving beam 3; the driving mechanism includes a transmission assembly arranged in the middle area of ​​the moving beam 3, and a plurality of groups of rollers 18 symmetrically arranged at the lower part of the moving beam 3 for rolling on the feeding cage 1, the transmission assembly includes a driven shaft 19, and the rollers 18 are driven by the driven shaft 19, and a flexible transmission member 20 is arranged between the transmission assembly and the driven shaft 19, and between the rollers 18 and the driven shaft 19, and a universal transmission is formed, and the rollers 18 away from both sides of the transmission assembly are independently distributed;

[0038] Thus, when the subsequent device moves, the roller 18 can be normally fitted to the feeding cage 1 and roll with the top of the feeding cage 1 through the flexibility of the moving beam 3 itself. The moving beam 3 is arranged on the top of the feeding cage 1. A driving mechanism for driving the moving beam 3 to move is arranged on the moving beam 3. The moving beam 3 is the main structure, which provides an installation position for the driving mechanism and other structures, thereby ensuring the stability of the driving mechanism and other structures when in use.

[0039] The transmission assembly includes: a mounting base 12, a power source 13 disposed on the mounting base 12, and the power source 13 may be a motor;

[0040] The power source 13 and the driving shaft 14 are both provided with a No. 1 power wheel 15 that cooperates with each other. The No. 1 power wheel 15 forms a synchronous transmission through the traction member 16. When the mobile beam 3 moves on the breeding cage body 1, it mainly relies on the rolling of the roller 18. The staff can start the power source 13, and the power source 13 drives the No. 1 power wheel 15 installed thereon to rotate. The transmission structure formed by the traction member 16 makes the No. 1 power wheel 15 on the power source 13 can synchronously drive the No. 1 power wheel 15 on the driving shaft 14 to rotate, thereby the driving shaft 14 also rotates. Through the rotation of the driving shaft 14, the driven shaft 19 and the flexible transmission member 20 can transmit the torque to several groups of rollers 18 symmetrically distributed on both sides of the power source 13, thereby achieving the purpose of uniformly driving the rollers 18 symmetrically distributed on both sides. The rollers 18 symmetrically distributed on both sides of the power source 13 further improve the stability during the movement and ensure the normal movement of the device. , and a flexible transmission member 20 is used to form a universal transmission. This design makes it possible for the driven shaft 19 to drive the roller 18 to move normally through the flexible transmission member 20 even if the roller 18 has a certain height deviation or a certain angle deflection. This provides great convenience for adapting to complex working conditions such as the diverse layout of the feeding cage 1 and the complex working conditions between the guide rails. The independently distributed rollers 18 away from both sides of the transmission assembly enable the moving beam 3 to better adapt to various possible obstacles and changes during the movement process, which not only improves the rolling stability of the moving beam 3 on the feeding cage 1, but also reduces the wear and failure risk of a single roller 18 by dispersing the pressure. Compared with rigid transmission, the use of the flexible transmission member 20 can better absorb and alleviate the impact caused by uneven load or vibration, thereby extending the service life of the entire drive system, and its structure is simple, which is more convenient when maintaining and replacing parts.

[0041] For example, when a roller 18 or a flexible transmission member 20 fails, it can be replaced separately without disassembling the entire drive mechanism. In addition, the independently distributed rollers 18 are also convenient for inspection and cleaning, reducing the complexity and time cost of maintenance work. By slidingly setting the moving beam 3 on the top of the breeding cage 1, this design effectively utilizes the vertical space and avoids the waste of ground space. This is of great significance for increasing the breeding density and optimizing the breeding environment.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, a guide rail 2 matching the roller 18 is provided on the feeding cage body 1, and the roller 18 and the guide rail 2 match each other to ensure the stability of the device as a whole during movement. The moving beam 3 includes several groups of frame plates, and the head and tail ends of each group of frame plates are fixedly connected by a fixed seat 4. The moving beam 3 is provided with a cross bar 5 for reinforcing the frame plates. The moving beam 3 composed of the frame plates and the fixed seat 4 has a certain flexibility. When there is a certain gap between a single roller 18 and the guide rail 2, the moving beam 3 bends to a certain extent due to its own gravity, so that the roller 18 and the guide rail 2 can be fitted together to ensure stability during movement.

[0043] In the present embodiment, specifically, a hopper 6 is provided on the movable beam 3, and the hopper 6 is used to store the feed required for raising livestock. A plurality of groups of suspension frames 7 matching the feeding cage 1 are provided on the movable beam 3, a plurality of groups of limit frames 8 are provided on the suspension frames 7, and a plurality of groups of fixing rods 9 matching the feeding trough are provided on the suspension frames 7. The suspension frames 7 and the fixing rods 9 together constitute the supporting structure of the distributor, and the distributor can be fixed at a certain height to match the corresponding feeding trough by the fixing rods 9, thereby achieving the purpose of feeding. The distributor and the hopper 6 are connected to each other through a feeding pipe, and the limit frame 8 provided on the suspension frame 7 is used to limit and fix the feeding pipe, thereby avoiding the entanglement of multiple feeding pipes, which is convenient for the staff to manage and also greatly reduces the phenomenon that the device cannot feed normally due to the entanglement of the feeding pipe.

[0044] In the present embodiment, specifically, a lower moving frame 10 is provided on the movable beam 3, and a control box 11 is fixedly provided on the lower moving frame 10. The lower moving frame 10 is the installation position of the control box 11, so that the control box 11 is at a suitable height, which is convenient for the staff to adjust the device and also ensures the stability of the control box 11 when in use. The control box 11 can control the power source 13, and receive relevant detection signals, detect the position of the movable beam 3, and control the movable beam 3 to be in place and prevent it from running away.

[0045] In this embodiment, specifically, a mounting seat 12 for fixing the transmission assembly is provided in the middle of the moving beam 3. The mounting seat 12 supports the transmission assembly and ensures the stability of the transmission assembly when in use.

[0046] In this embodiment, specifically, the traction member 16 is a crawler belt or a chain.

[0047] In this embodiment, specifically, a plurality of groups of support frames 17 for supporting rollers 18 are provided at the lower part of the moving beam 3, and the support frames 17 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the driving mechanism. The support frames 17 support the rollers 18. In the actual working process, the position of the support frames 17 on the moving beam 3 can be adjusted to match the different distribution conditions of the feeding cages 1.

[0048] In this embodiment, specifically, the flexible transmission member 20 is one of a universal coupling, a double-chain coupling and a flexible coupling.

[0049] In the present embodiment, specifically, the two ends of the support frame 17 near the two sides of the driving mechanism are rotatably provided with the second wheels 21, and the two sides of the second wheel 21 are respectively connected with the roller 18 and the flexible transmission member 20, and the second wheels 21 are meshed with each other through the traction chain 22. The support frame 17 is provided with a reinforcing pin 23 for improving the strength. The second wheel 21 and the traction chain 22 constitute an auxiliary transmission structure to avoid the situation where the torque transmission is weakened when multiple groups of rollers 18 are driven simply by the driven shaft 19, resulting in the rollers 18 being unable to rotate stably.

[0050] In the present embodiment, specifically, an anti-slip sensor 24 is arranged on the support frame 17 away from both sides of the driving mechanism, and a stroke sensor 25 for detecting the movement of the roller 18 is arranged on the feeding cage body 1. When the movable beam 3 moves, the anti-slip sensor 24 is in contact with the upper surface of the guide rail 2, thereby the movement of the device can be monitored in real time through the anti-slip sensor 24 to avoid derailment. When the device is not in use, the movable beam 3 is reset, and the stroke sensor 25 can detect the position of the movable beam 3 to ensure that it can be returned to a predetermined point.

[0051] Working principle: When the device is in use, the power source 13 drives the No. 1 power wheel 15 to rotate, thereby synchronously driving the driving shaft 14 to rotate. The rotation of the driving shaft 14 cooperates with the driven shaft 19 and the flexible transmission member 20 to transmit the torque to several groups of rollers 18. The rollers 18 rotate synchronously to realize the movement of the device. When there is a certain height difference between the two feeding cages 1, the moving beam 3 bends to a certain extent under the action of its own gravity and the gravity of components such as the hopper 6, so that the corresponding roller 18 moves downward and fits with the corresponding guide rail 2 to avoid overhead phenomenon and ensure stability during movement. The flexible transmission member 20 constitutes a universal transmission, which ensures that even if the roller 18 moves downward, the driven shaft 19 can still drive the roller 18 to move normally through the flexible transmission member 20.

[0052] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the present invention, but the content is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and cannot be considered to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the present invention.
