Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of egg-laying hen farming technology, specifically to a device and method for collecting eggs in a chicken coop. Background Technology

[0002] As the world's largest producer and consumer of eggs, my country accounts for about 36% of the world's total egg production. The egg-laying hen industry is an important industry for ensuring the safe and stable supply of food for urban and rural residents. Among them, three-dimensional farming technology is widely used in the field of egg-laying hen farming due to its characteristics such as high stocking density per unit area and high degree of automation.

[0003] Intensive high-rise complete farming equipment is an innovative model of three-dimensional farming of laying hens. It significantly improves production efficiency and egg quality by increasing stocking density and automation. This equipment employs an advanced automated control system, enabling precise regulation of the chicken house environment, including temperature, humidity, and lighting, to meet the needs of laying hens at different growth stages. It also features a good ventilation system to ensure air circulation, reduce disease incidence, and improve the health and egg production rate of the hens. Furthermore, the egg collection device is designed with egg collection efficiency and safety in mind, reducing manual intervention, labor intensity, and costs. In actual farming, because laying times are not fixed, the egg collection device needs to be activated multiple times. Each time the device is activated, the produced eggs are transported to subsequent processes via alternating conveyor belts. When the device is not activated, the conveyor belts are stationary, and the eggs roll onto the conveyor belts under gravity, remaining scattered. When the device is activated, the egg transport saturation is low, thus prolonging the egg transfer time and increasing energy consumption, which contradicts the principles of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0004] A fully automatic egg-collecting device for tiered layer hen cages has been disclosed in the relevant technology (application number CN2020106976037). This solution, through the cooperation of a guiding device and an egg output device, can collect all eggs into the egg collection box in one pass, achieving fully automatic egg collection. However, in practical application, it has been found that because the device uses inclined slide rails to guide the movement of the eggs and thus gather them, although flexible materials are set on the slide rails to buffer the impact between the eggs and the device, when the movement speed of the eggs differs, the probability of multiple eggs on the same track colliding with each other is extremely high. Collisions can easily lead to egg breakage. Furthermore, during long-term operation, foreign objects such as feces adhering to the eggs are transferred to the track, which further hinders the sliding of the eggs within the track, causing inconsistent movement speeds of the eggs and further increasing the probability of collisions between eggs. Therefore, this is not conducive to the safe transportation of eggs.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention proposes an egg collection device and method for chicken coops to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies and solve the aforementioned technical problems, this invention proposes an egg collection device and method for chicken coops.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is: the egg collection device and egg collection method for chicken houses described in the present invention, including an egg collection trough and a vertical conveyor installed on an intensive high-rise chicken house;

[0008] The egg collection trough consists of a trough body and a guide. The trough body and the guide are fixedly connected. The trough body is a semi-circular plate structure. The guide is installed at an angle at the bottom of the chicken coop. The guide is used to guide the eggs to roll towards the trough body.

[0009] The vertical conveyor and the egg collection trough are connected by a guide. The vertical conveyor is a plate chain conveyor equipped with curved claws. The vertical conveyor is used to transport eggs vertically by lifting and lowering.

[0010] It also includes a gravity converging mechanism, which is installed on the egg collection trough and is used to guide the eggs to converge into the vertical conveyor.

[0011] The gravity convergence mechanism includes a support frame, a circulation belt, and a partition plate;

[0012] A support frame is fixedly installed on the egg collection trough, and a circulating belt is sleeved on the support frame. The circulating belt is a ring structure, and partition plates are fixedly installed at equal intervals on the circulating belt. The circulating belt and partition plates are used to transport eggs.

[0013] The support frame is inclined, and the egg collection trough and the lowest end of the support frame face the vertical conveyor.

[0014] Preferably, the support frame includes at least a support rail, on which an annular groove is formed, and on which a rotating groove is formed. Evenly distributed balls are rotatably installed in the rotating groove, and the balls extend into the annular groove. The rotating belt is tumbledly connected to the support rail through the balls.

[0015] Preferably, the support rails are symmetrically designed, the annular grooves are formed on the side of the support rails that are close to each other, and both sides of the circulation belt extend into the annular grooves.

[0016] Preferably, the circulating belt has an interception groove, and an elastic net is fixedly installed in the interception groove. The elastic net is located in the interval between two adjacent partition plates.

[0017] Preferably, each of the partition plates has an elastic sheet fixedly installed at its top, and a pull rope is fixedly installed on the elastic sheet. The pull rope extends to the elastic net, and in the initial state, the elastic sheet is designed to be straight with the partition plate.

[0018] Preferably, the number of elastic pieces on a single partition plate is two, and the two elastic pieces are respectively connected to two adjacent elastic nets by pull ropes.

[0019] Preferably, a buffer platform is fixedly installed on the chicken coop, and the egg collection trough and the circulation belt both extend to the buffer platform. The buffer platform is set at an angle, and the angle range of the buffer platform is - degrees.

[0020] Preferably, the guide is designed in multiple ways, and each guide is hinged to the bottom of the chicken coop. A telescopic bladder is fixedly installed on each guide, and an air inlet pipe and an air outlet pipe are fixedly installed on the telescopic bladder. Both the air inlet pipe and the air outlet pipe are unidirectional pipes. The air outlet pipe extends into the trough and the opening of the air outlet pipe faces the partition plate.

[0021] Preferably, all the air outlet pipes are inclined, and the air jet direction of the air outlet pipe is the same as the circulation rotation direction.

[0022] A method for collecting eggs in a chicken coop, the method comprising the following steps:

[0023] S1: Install the egg collection device on the intensive ultra-high-rise chicken house and raise chickens in the intensive ultra-high-rise chicken house;

[0024] S2: After the flock lays an egg, the egg falls onto the circulation belt under the guidance of the guide, and is eventually confined in the interception groove by the elastic net and the partition plate;

[0025] S3: When the chickens move, they squeeze the contractile sac, which, with the cooperation of the air inlet and outlet pipes, sprays a directional airflow into the partition plate. Under the action of the airflow and the weight of the eggs, the circulation belt moves.

[0026] S4: Eggs are transported by a circulating belt and fall onto a buffer platform. At the same time, a vertical conveyor is periodically started, and the eggs are gradually transferred from the buffer platform to the vertical conveyor, which then transports them to the next workstation.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0028] 1. The present invention discloses an egg collection device and method for raising chickens, which uses a circulating belt slidably mounted on an inclined support frame. When an egg falls onto the circulating belt under the action of gravity, the weight of the egg and the impact force caused by the egg falling together cause the circulating belt to be subjected to force in one direction, thereby causing the circulating belt slidably mounted on the support frame to rotate. As the circulating belt rotates, the eggs are transported towards a vertical conveyor.

[0029] 2. The egg collection device and method for chicken coops described in this invention utilizes the bending of elastic sheets on two adjacent partition plates to block the upper part of the elastic groove. During the downward movement of the circulating belt, when the egg falls to this position again, the falling egg is blocked by the elastic sheet and cannot fall directly onto the elastic net, thus avoiding direct collision with the eggs already present on the elastic net.

Detailed Implementation

[0042] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the present invention provides an egg collection device and method for raising chickens, which includes an egg collection trough 1 and a vertical conveyor 13 installed on an intensive high-rise chicken house.

[0044] The egg collection trough 1 is composed of a trough body 11 and a guide 12. The trough body 11 and the guide 12 are fixedly connected. The trough body 11 is a semi-circular plate structure. The guide 12 is installed at an angle at the bottom of the chicken coop. The guide 12 is used to guide the eggs to roll towards the trough body 11.

[0045] The vertical conveyor 13 is connected to the egg collection trough 1. The vertical conveyor 13 is a plate chain conveyor with curved claws. The vertical conveyor 13 is used to transport eggs vertically by lifting and lowering.

[0046] It also includes a gravity converging mechanism, which is installed on the egg collection trough 1 and is used to guide the eggs to converge into the vertical conveyor 13;

[0047] The gravity converging mechanism includes a support frame, a circulating belt 2, and a partition plate 21;

[0048] A support frame is fixedly installed on the egg collection trough 1. A circulation belt 2 is sleeved on the support frame. The circulation belt 2 is a ring structure. Divider plates 21 are fixedly installed on the circulation belt 2 at equal intervals. The circulation belt 2 and the divider plates 21 are used to transport eggs.

[0049] The support frame is inclined, and the egg collection trough 1 and the lowest end of the support frame face the vertical conveyor 13.

[0050] In the three-dimensional farming technology of laying hens, the use of automated egg collection equipment can effectively reduce labor requirements and improve egg collection efficiency. Under normal use, due to the inconsistent egg-laying time of the flock, the egg collection equipment needs to be turned on multiple times a day to transport the eggs to the next process. When the egg collection equipment stops operating, the eggs produced in the chicken house accumulate in the egg collection trough 1. To avoid the eggs colliding with each other in the egg collection trough 1, the egg collection equipment needs to be started frequently. Moreover, each time it is started, the eggs are relatively few in number and highly dispersed, resulting in low egg transportation efficiency. In order to solve this problem, this invention sets up a gravity convergence component. When the egg collection equipment stops operating, gravity causes the eggs to converge towards the vertical conveyor 13. Then, after the vertical conveyor 13 starts, the produced eggs can be quickly transported to the next process, thereby reducing the energy consumption of the equipment.

[0051] Specifically, the intensive ultra-high-rise chicken house is a vertical structure. Each floor of the chicken house is equipped with a set of egg collection troughs 1. The guide 12 that makes up the egg collection trough 1 is a plate-shaped structure that extends into the chicken house to support the chickens. The guide 12 is inclined. When the chickens lay eggs, the eggs move along the guide 12 towards the trough 11 under the action of gravity (this structure is prior art and will not be described in detail). In conventional technology, the trough 11 of the egg collection trough 1 is equipped with a conveyor belt or pushing device to push the eggs towards the vertical egg collector. In this invention, the trough 11 is equipped with a gravity converging mechanism, and the support frame that makes up the gravity converging mechanism is fixedly installed on the trough 1. The trough 11 is on top, while the circulation belt 2 is slidably mounted on the support frame. The circulation belt 2 is fixedly mounted with evenly distributed partition plates 21, and both the support frame and the circulation belt 2 are inclined. Therefore, when the eggs fall into the trough 11, the eggs are separated by the partition plates 21. As the number of eggs on the circulation belt 2 increases, the force on the circulation belt 2 becomes uneven. Under the action of gravity, the circulation belt 2 overcomes the resistance between itself and the support frame and rotates in a cycle, causing the eggs to move towards the bottom of the support frame. Since the circulation belt 2 is a complete ring structure, as the circulation belt 2 moves downward, the eggs located in the gaps between the partition plates 21 gradually lose their restraint and move towards the vertical conveyor 13, thereby realizing the automated collection of eggs.

[0052] In this invention, a circulating belt 2 is slidably mounted on an inclined support frame. When an egg falls onto the circulating belt 2 under the influence of gravity, the weight of the egg and the impact force from the fall cause the circulating belt 2 to be subjected to a unidirectional force, thus causing the circulating belt 2 to rotate. As the circulating belt 2 rotates, it transports the egg towards the vertical conveyor 13. Compared to existing transport equipment that uses an active power source, this invention does not require a power source during normal use. It utilizes the force imbalance caused by the falling egg to drive the circulating belt 2 to transport the egg, while the vertical conveyor 13... The continuous collection of eggs in section 3, when the vertical conveyor 13 is started, can increase the loading rate of the vertical conveyor 13, thereby accelerating the efficiency of egg transportation, shortening the start-up time of the vertical conveyor 13, and thus playing a role in energy conservation and emission reduction. Compared with related technologies that use sliding rails to collect eggs, in this invention, the eggs are stationary relative to the circulating belt 2 when they are moving, and the use of the partition plate 21 to limit the eggs can not only effectively reduce the probability of eggs colliding with each other, but also avoid violent collisions between eggs and transportation equipment, thereby effectively reducing the breakage rate of eggs and improving the safety of egg transportation.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the support frame includes at least a support rail 22, an annular groove 23 is provided on the support rail 22, a rotating groove 24 is provided on the circulating belt 2, and evenly distributed balls 25 are rotatably installed in the rotating groove 24. The balls 25 extend into the annular groove 23, and the circulating belt 2 is rotatably connected to the support rail 22 through the balls 25.

[0054] In practical applications, the support frame includes at least a support rail 22, which is fixedly installed inside the trough 11. An annular groove 23 is formed on the support rail 22, and a rotating groove 24 is formed on the circulating belt 2. A ball bearing 25 is rotatably installed in the rotating groove 24. The circulating belt 2 is connected to the annular groove 23 via the ball bearing 25. Therefore, when eggs are stored on the circulating belt 2, the inclined arrangement of both the support rail 22 and the circulating belt 2 causes the circulating belt 2 to tend to slide downwards along the support rail 22. Under this tendency, the ball bearing 25 on the circulating belt 2 rotates, thereby reducing the friction between the circulating belt 2 and the support rail 22, and thus lowering the resistance to movement of the circulating belt 2. Therefore, when eggs fall onto the conveyor belt, the weight of the eggs reduces the difficulty of movement for the circulating belt 2. Furthermore, as the number of eggs falling increases, the force causing the circulating belt 2 to move downwards along the support rail 22 gradually increases, thereby enhancing the transport efficiency of the circulating belt 2 for eggs.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the support track 22 is symmetrically designed, the annular groove 23 is formed on one side of the support track 22 that is close to each other, and both sides of the circulation belt 2 extend into the annular groove 23.

[0056] The support rails 22 are symmetrically arranged and distributed on both sides, while the circulation belt 2 is installed between the two support rails 22. On the one hand, the two ends of the circulation belt 2 extend into the annular grooves 23 on the support rails 22, so that the balls 25 are blocked, thereby reducing the probability of chicken droppings and other debris sticking to the balls 25 during long-term use. On the other hand, the middle part of the circulation belt 2 is suspended, which reduces the probability of the egg breaking under the impact when it falls on the elastic material circulation belt 2.

[0057] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the circulation belt 2 is provided with an interception groove 26, and an elastic net 27 is fixedly installed in the interception groove 26. The elastic net 27 is located between two adjacent partition plates 21. Since the support frame and the circulation belt 2 are both inclined, when the egg falls from the top of the trough 11 onto the circulation belt 2, there is a certain impact force. The elastic net 27 in the interception groove 26 is used to elastically intercept the egg, which can reduce the probability of the egg breaking. At the same time, the impact force can further enhance the directional movement effect of the circulation belt 2, making it easier to collect the egg.

[0058] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, each of the partition plates 21 is fixedly mounted with an elastic sheet 28, and a pull rope 29 is fixedly mounted on the elastic sheet 28. The pull rope 29 extends to the elastic net 27. In the initial state, the elastic sheet 28 is designed to be flat with the partition plate 21. There are two elastic sheets 28 on a single partition plate 21, and the two elastic sheets 28 are respectively connected to two adjacent elastic nets 27 through the pull rope 29. The setting of the elastic sheet 28 and the pull rope 29 serves two purposes: firstly, during the process of the egg falling onto the elastic net 27, the flexible pull rope 29 slows down the movement speed of the egg; secondly, under the action of the egg's gravity, the elastic net 27 deforms downward, thereby pulling the pull rope 29. Since the other end of the pull rope 29 is fixedly spliced ​​to the elastic sheet 28, under the pulling action of the pull rope 29, in the initial state... The elastic sheet 28, which is straight with the partition plate 21, gradually bends. Since each partition plate 21 has two elastic sheets 28, the bending of the elastic sheets 28 on adjacent partition plates 21 blocks the area above the elastic groove. As the circulating belt 2 moves downward, when an egg falls to this position again, the falling egg is blocked by the elastic sheet 28 and cannot fall directly onto the elastic net 27, thus avoiding direct collision with the eggs already on the elastic net 27. Since the circulating belt 2 is in continuous operation while carrying eggs, the probability of multiple eggs falling at the same position is small. After being blocked by the bent elastic sheet 28, the egg can still move along the inclined direction of the circulating belt 2 and fall onto the elastic net 27 that is not carrying an egg. Therefore, the probability of collision between eggs can be effectively reduced during the entire egg collection process.

[0059] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a buffer platform 3 is fixedly installed on the chicken coop. The egg collection trough 1 and the circulation belt 2 both extend to the buffer platform 3. The buffer platform 3 is set at an angle, with the angle ranging from 1 to 3 degrees. The buffer platform 3 is set to assist the vertical conveyor when it is not in operation in buffering the eggs. Because the angle of inclination of the buffer platform 3 is small, although the eggs have a tendency to roll on the buffer platform 3, the rolling speed of the eggs is slow due to the small rolling distance and the small descent angle. Therefore, the probability of the eggs breaking during the collection process is small.

[0060] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the guide members 12 are designed in multiples, and each guide member 12 is hinged to the bottom of the chicken coop. A telescopic bladder 4 is fixedly installed on the guide member 12. An air inlet pipe 41 and an air outlet pipe 42 are fixedly installed on the telescopic bladder 4. Both the air inlet pipe 41 and the air outlet pipe 42 are unidirectional pipes. The air outlet pipe 42 extends into the trough 11, and the opening of the air outlet pipe 42 faces the partition plate 21.

[0061] All the air outlet pipes 42 are inclined, and the air jet direction of the air outlet pipe 42 is the same as the circulating rotation direction.

[0062] To further improve the automatic transport effect of the circulating belt 2, this invention provides multiple guides 12, each with a telescopic bladder 4 installed below it. When the chickens move around in the chicken house, the pressure on the guides 12 will continuously change as the evenness of their distribution on the guides 12 changes. It should be noted that the telescopic bladder 4 is made of elastic material and has a certain shape. When compressed, it tends to automatically recover its shape due to the material's properties. Therefore, during prolonged use, when the pressure on the telescopic bladder 4 changes, it continuously draws air through the inlet pipe 41 and exhausts air through the outlet pipe 42. The outlet pipe 42 extends into the trough 11, with its opening facing the partition plate 21 and the air jet direction consistent with the direction of the circulating belt 2's rotation. This continuous air jet provides the circulating belt 2 with the force for directional movement. Combined with the influence of the eggs' gravity on the circulating belt 2, this further reduces the difficulty of directional movement, thereby enhancing the egg collection effect.

[0063] like Figure 10 As shown, a method for collecting eggs in a chicken coop includes the following steps:

[0064] S1: Install the egg collection device on the intensive ultra-high-rise chicken house and raise chickens in the intensive ultra-high-rise chicken house;

[0065] S2: After the flock of chickens lays an egg, under the guidance of the guide 12, the egg falls onto the circulation belt 2 and is eventually confined in the interception groove 26 by the elastic net 27 and the partition plate 21.

[0066] S3: When the chickens move, they squeeze the contractile bladder 4. With the cooperation of the air inlet pipe 41 and the air outlet pipe 42, a directional airflow is sprayed into the partition plate 21. Under the action of the airflow and the weight of the eggs, the circulation belt 2 moves.

[0067] S4: The eggs are transported by the circulating belt 2 and fall onto the buffer platform 3. At the same time, the vertical conveyor 13 is started periodically, and the eggs are gradually transferred from the buffer platform 3 to the vertical conveyor 13, and then transported to the next work station by the vertical conveyor 13.

[0068] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed.
