Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of mobile device technology, and more specifically, to a mobile device for a mobile chicken coop. Background Technology
[0002] Mobile poultry houses are poultry sheds designed to periodically change location. Their core purpose is to ensure that chickens continuously receive fresh pasture resources by rotating locations, while allowing the land to rest and recover, thereby achieving a more ecological, healthy, and sustainable farming model and improving the welfare and quality of the chickens.
[0003] The core feature of mobile chicken houses is mobility, achieved through the movement of components carried by mobile devices. However, the structural limitations of these devices restrict the footprint of the mobile chicken house, making it fixed and non-adjustable. When the footprint is small, the chickens' activity space is limited, hindering resource acquisition and welfare-oriented farming. Conversely, a large footprint results in a bulky mobile chicken house, increasing the difficulty and strength of movement and requiring a high degree of ground flatness during transport. Uneven ground poses a risk of tipping over.

[0037] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a mobile device for a mobile chicken coop, including:
[0039] Telescopic frame 1, folding skeleton 2, and multiple first self-driving wheels 3;
[0040] The telescopic frame 1 includes four connecting frames 11 and four connecting rods 12. The four connecting frames 11 are arranged in a quadrilateral shape, and the two ends of the connecting rods 12 are slidably connected to two adjacent connecting frames 11 respectively.
[0041] The connecting frame 11 is provided with at least two first self-driving wheels 3. When the first self-driving wheels 3 on the four connecting frames 11 move in the same direction, they drive the telescopic frame 1 to move. When the first self-driving wheel 3 on any connecting frame 11 moves, it drives the docking rod 12 to extend into or slide out of the corresponding connecting frame 11, so that the area of the telescopic frame 1 expands or shrinks.
[0042] The folding frame 2 is connected to the telescopic frame 1. The folding frame 2 is used to fold or unfold as the area of the telescopic frame 1 changes, so that after the folding frame 2 is connected to the shed of the movable chicken house, the internal space of the shed can be expanded or reduced.
[0043] Understandably, during movement, the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11 remain stationary, while the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two transversely arranged connecting frames 11 move towards the center, causing the longitudinal sections of the four connecting rods 12 to slide into the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11. This reduces the longitudinal width of the telescopic frame 1, and the folding frame 2 begins to fold. After the folding frame 2 connects to the shed cloth of the mobile chicken coop, it can drive the shed cloth to fold initially, thus reducing the internal space of the shed cloth. Subsequently, the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two transversely arranged connecting frames 11 remain stationary, while the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11 move towards the center, causing the longitudinal sections of the four connecting rods 12 to slide into the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11. The horizontal sections of the four connecting rods 12 slide into the two horizontally set connecting frames 11, reducing the horizontal width of the telescopic frame 1. The folding frame 2 is folded again. After the folding frame 2 is connected to the shed of the mobile chicken house, it can drive the shed to fold again, so that the internal space of the shed is reduced again, thus reducing the overall volume of the mobile chicken house. Under the restriction of the shed, the chickens are concentrated in the reduced space. At this time, the overall footprint is reduced to the minimum. Then the first self-driving wheels 3 on the four connecting frames 11 move in the same direction, driving the telescopic frame 1, the folding frame 2 and the shed of the mobile chicken house to move slowly to the designated position. The chickens follow the movement under the limit and drive of the shed.
[0044] After moving to the designated position, the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two horizontally arranged connecting frames 11 remain fixed, while the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two vertically arranged connecting frames 11 move to the vertical sides. The horizontal sections of the four connecting rods 12 slide out from the two horizontally arranged connecting frames 11, increasing the horizontal width of the telescopic frame 1. The folding frame 2 is initially unfolded. After the folding frame 2 connects to the shed of the mobile chicken house, it can drive the shed to initially unfold, thereby initially expanding the internal space of the shed and the overall footprint of the mobile chicken house. When it is necessary to further expand the overall footprint, the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two vertically arranged connecting frames 11 remain fixed, while the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two horizontally arranged connecting frames 11 move to the horizontal sides, causing the vertical sections of the four connecting rods 12 to slide out from the two vertically arranged connecting frames 11. The telescopic frame... With the longitudinal width of frame 1 increased, the folding frame 2 unfolds again. After the folding frame 2 is connected to the canopy of the mobile chicken house, it can drive the canopy to unfold again, thereby expanding the internal space of the canopy. At this time, the overall footprint is maximized. Under the constraint of the canopy, the chickens can obtain more resources, welfare, and activity space in the spacious area, which is conducive to improving the quality of the chickens. In this technical solution, through the cooperation of the telescopic frame 1, the folding frame 2, and multiple first self-driving wheels 3, the overall footprint of the mobile chicken house can be reduced to a minimum during movement, reducing the difficulty and intensity of movement. After moving to the designated location, the overall footprint of the mobile chicken house can be expanded, increasing the activity space of the chickens, allowing them to obtain more resources and welfare, which is conducive to improving the quality of the chickens. This realizes the adjustable footprint of the mobile chicken house.
[0045] It should be noted that each connecting frame 11 is equipped with a control box, which contains a controller. The controller is used to communicate with the cloud server and, based on the control commands issued by the user through the mobile device, the controller adjusts multiple first self-driving wheels 3, multiple second self-driving wheels 4, first electric cylinder 113 and second electric cylinder 52 to realize remote control of the mobile chicken house's mobile device.
[0046] A photovoltaic panel is installed on the connecting frame 11. The photovoltaic panel is connected to a storage battery. The storage battery is installed in the control box to supply power to the electrical equipment, thereby ensuring the power supply.
[0047] like Figure 2 As shown, a connecting section 121 is provided in the middle of the connecting rod 12, and the connecting section 121 is connected to a second self-driving wheel 4. The second self-driving wheel 4 has the same structure as the first self-driving wheel 3.
[0048] Understandably, with the increased overall footprint, the multiple first self-driving wheels 3 connected by the four connecting frames 11 form four points of support on the ground. However, the four connecting rods 12 are not connected to the ground. Under the weight of the connecting rods 12, the connection points between the connecting rods 12 and the connecting frames 11 will experience concentrated stress, causing the connecting rods 12 to become stuck inside the connecting frames 11, making it difficult for them to slide further into the connecting frames 11. Therefore, a connecting section 121 is provided in the middle of the connecting rods 12, connecting the second self-driving wheel 4. The overall footprint is increased. When the size of the mobile chicken house is reduced, the second self-drive wheel 4 moves longitudinally or laterally along with the first self-drive wheel 3 to ensure the stability of the connecting rod 12 when it extends into or slides out of the corresponding connecting frame 11. After the overall footprint of the mobile chicken house is reduced to the minimum, the first self-drive wheel 3 and the second self-drive wheel 4 move in the same direction when the mobile chicken house is moved to the designated position and the overall footprint of the mobile chicken house is expanded, the second self-drive wheel 4 supports the connecting rod 12 on the ground to prevent the connecting rod 12 from getting stuck in the connecting frame 11 and making it difficult for the connecting rod 12 to slide into the connecting frame 11.
[0049] like Figures 2-3 As shown, the connecting frame 11 is provided with a docking cylinder 111. The ends of two adjacent docking rods 12 are slidably connected in the docking cylinder 111. Multiple housings 112 are provided through both ends of the docking cylinder 111. A U-shaped plate 114 is slidably provided in the housing 112. A first electric cylinder 113 is provided through the housing 112. The first electric cylinder 113 is connected to the U-shaped plate 114 in a transmission manner. Arc-shaped spring plates 115 are provided on both sides of the side plate of the U-shaped plate 114. Multiple limiting ports 122 are symmetrically provided on the docking rods 12. After the U-shaped plate 114 passes through the limiting port 122, the arc-shaped spring plates 115 abut against the side wall of the limiting port 122.
[0050] Understandably, after minimizing the overall footprint, when moving across sloping ground, there is a high risk that the connecting rod 12 may slide out of the connecting frame 11, causing the connections between components to detach, since there is no fixed limiting connection on the connecting frame 11. Therefore, multiple housings 112 are respectively provided through both ends of the connecting cylinder 111. A U-shaped plate 114 is slidably provided inside the housing 112. A first electric cylinder 113 is provided through the housing 112 and is connected to the U-shaped plate 114. Arc-shaped spring plates 115 are provided on both sides of the side plate of the U-shaped plate 114. After the connecting rod 12 extends into or slides out of the corresponding connecting cylinder 111, the first electric cylinder 113 drives the two side plates of the U-shaped plate 114 to pass through into the limiting port 122. The arc-shaped spring plates 115 on both sides abut against the side wall of the limiting port 122. The arc-shaped spring plates 115 apply a limiting force that allows for slight displacement to the connecting rod 12 inside the connecting frame 11. The abutment between the arc-shaped spring plates 115 and the side wall of the limiting port 122 prevents the U-shaped plate 114 from being tightly abutted against the side wall of the limiting port 122, so that when the first electric cylinder 113 drives the U-shaped plate 114 to disengage from the limiting port 122, the U-shaped plate 114 can easily disengage from the limiting port 122. This achieves the limiting connection of the connecting rod 12 to the connecting frame 11. By symmetrically setting multiple limiting ports 122 on the connecting rod 12, the connecting rod 12 has multiple connection positions in the connecting cylinder 111, so that the adjustment of the floor space of the mobile chicken house can be varied.
[0051] like Figure 4 As shown, the first self-driven wheel 3 includes an elastic bracket 31, a servo indexer 32, a U-shaped frame 33, a rotating wheel 34, and a drive device 35. One end of the elastic bracket 31 is connected to the connecting frame 11, the servo indexer 32 is located at the other end of the elastic bracket 31, the U-shaped frame 33 is connected to the servo indexer 32 in a transmission connection, the rotating wheel 34 is rotatably connected to the U-shaped frame 33 through a rotating shaft 36, and the drive device 35 is connected to the rotating shaft 36 in a transmission connection.
[0052] Understandably, during movement, the servo indexer 32 drives the U-shaped frame 33 to adjust its angle, thereby adjusting the orientation of the rotating wheel 34. Subsequently, the drive device 35 drives the rotating shaft 36 to rotate the rotating wheel 34, thus achieving movement. The elastic support 31 is used for shock absorption and buffering when the first self-driven wheels 3 on the four connecting frames 11 move in the same direction. When the first self-driven wheel 3 on any connecting frame 11 moves, the rotating wheel 34 can adapt to the ground height and always remain in contact with the ground, preventing the rotating wheel 34 from being suspended in the air.
[0053] like Figure 5As shown, the elastic support 31 includes a connecting rod 311. One end of the connecting rod 311 is fixedly connected to the connecting frame 11. The other end of the connecting rod 311 is integrally provided with a connecting barrel 312. A docking seat 313 is slidably connected inside the connecting barrel 312. A servo indexer 32 is connected to the bottom end of the docking seat 313. A plurality of telescopic sleeves 314 are connected to the top end of the docking seat 313. The ends of the telescopic sleeves 314 are connected to the inner bottom end of the connecting barrel 312. A support spring 315 is threaded through the telescopic sleeve 314. One end of the support spring 315 is connected to the docking seat 313, and the other end of the support spring 315 is connected to the connecting barrel 312.
[0054] It is understandable that when the first self-driving wheels 3 on the four connecting frames 11 move in the same direction, the telescopic frame 1 and the folding frame 2 will shake violently when passing over uneven road surfaces, which may cause stress reactions in the chickens inside. When the first self-driving wheel 3 drives the docking rod 12 to extend into or slide out of the corresponding connecting frame 11, the unevenness of the ground may cause the rotating wheel 34 to be suspended in the air, making it impossible for the first self-driving wheel 3 to drive the docking rod 12 to extend into or slide out of the corresponding connecting frame 11, or the first self-driving wheel 3 to move into position and fail to provide effective support for the connecting frame 11. Therefore, a docking seat 313 is slidably connected inside the connecting barrel 312. Multiple telescopic sleeves 314 are connected to the top of the docking seat 313. The ends of the telescopic sleeves 314 are connected to the inner bottom of the connecting barrel 312. A support spring 315 is passed through the telescopic sleeve 314.
[0055] Under the weight of the telescopic frame 1, the folding frame 2, and the canopy, the docking seat 313 slides into the connecting barrel 312. After the telescopic sleeve 314 is shortened, the support spring 315 is in a contracted state. When the first self-driving wheel 3's rotating wheel 34 passes over a bumpy road surface, the support spring 315 drives the telescopic sleeve 314 to adaptively extend and retract, causing the docking seat 313 to adaptively slide within the connecting barrel 312, thereby providing shock absorption and buffering for the telescopic frame 1 and the folding frame 2.
[0056] When the first self-driving wheel 3 on any connecting frame 11 moves, when the rotating wheel 34 passes over the raised ground, it drives the docking seat 313 to slide into the connecting barrel 312. The docking seat 313 applies a further contraction force to the support spring 315, which increases the force on the rotating wheel 34, while the elastic support 31 of other rotating wheels 34 bears less force. As a result, multiple elastic supports 31 are slightly extended, which drives the telescopic frame 1 to rise slightly, thereby reducing the force on the rotating wheel 34 that passes over the raised ground, so that the rotating wheel 34 can pass over the raised ground smoothly, and the docking rod 12 can smoothly extend into or slide out of the corresponding connecting frame 11.
[0057] When the rotating wheel 34 passes over the uneven ground, the support spring 315 pushes the docking seat 313 to slide out of the connecting barrel 312, so that the rotating wheel 34 descends and comes into contact with the uneven ground, which reduces the force on the rotating wheel 34, while the elastic support 31 of the other rotating wheels 34 bears more force, so that the multiple elastic supports 31 slightly extend and retract, causing the telescopic frame 1 to descend slightly, thereby increasing the force on the rotating wheel 34 in the uneven ground, so that the rotating wheel 34 can travel effectively in the uneven ground, pass through the uneven ground smoothly, and drive the docking rod 12 to smoothly extend into or slide out of the corresponding connecting frame 11;
[0058] After expanding the overall footprint of the mobile chicken house, each wheel 34, under the action of the elastic support 31, adaptively abuts against the flat ground and / or the raised ground and / or the pitted ground, thereby providing stable and effective support for the telescopic frame 1, the folding frame 2 and the canopy.
[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, the drive device 35 includes a drive motor 351, a first sprocket 352 and a second sprocket 353. The drive motor 351 is connected to the U-shaped frame 33. The first sprocket 352 is connected to the drive motor 351 in a transmission connection. The second sprocket 353 is connected to the rotating shaft 36. The second sprocket 353 and the first sprocket 352 are connected by a chain.
[0060] It is understandable that when the drive wheel 34 rotates, the drive motor 351 drives the first sprocket 352 to rotate, the first sprocket 352 drives the second sprocket 353 to rotate through the chain, and the second sprocket 353 drives the shaft 36 to drive the wheel 34 to rotate, thereby providing a stable and effective drive for the wheel 34.
[0061] like Figures 6-7 As shown, a ratchet 37 is connected to the rotating shaft 36, and a limiting cylinder 331 is provided on the U-shaped frame 33. A positioning post 332 is slidably connected inside the limiting cylinder 331. A return spring is provided between the positioning post 332 and the limiting cylinder 331. A pawl 38 is connected to the end of the positioning post 332. The pawl 38 meshes with the ratchet 37. An installation groove 381 is provided on the sliding side end face of the pawl 38. A pulley 382 is rotatably connected inside the installation groove 381. The pulley 382 is used to rotate along the ratchet 37.
[0062] Understandably, when the drive motor 351 drives the rotating shaft 36 to rotate clockwise, the ratchet 37 rotates clockwise along with the rotating shaft 36. During the rotation, one side of the ratchet 37's teeth drives the pulley 382 to rotate, causing the positioning pin 332 to slide into the limiting cylinder 331 and compress the return spring. The pulley 382 reduces the friction between the sliding end face of the pawl 38 and the ratchet 37. After the pulley 382 slides past one side of the ratchet 37's teeth, under the push of the return spring, the pawl 38 engages with the next tooth of the ratchet 37. The abutting side of the pawl 38 abuts against the other side of the next tooth, preventing the ratchet 37 from rotating counterclockwise, thus allowing the rotating wheel 34 to rotate only in one direction. When the first self-driving wheels 3 on the four connecting frames 11 move in the same direction, the unidirectional rotating wheels 34 can achieve excellent climbing performance and avoid landslides. After the first self-driving wheels 3 on the four connecting frames 11 drive the docking rods 12 to slide out of the corresponding connecting frames 11, under the unidirectional rotation restriction of multiple rotating wheels 34 in different directions, multiple rotating wheels 34 cannot rotate, so multiple rotating wheels 34 stably support the telescopic frame 1 and the folding frame 2 on the ground. When the rotating wheels 34 need to rotate, the servo indexer 32 drives the U-shaped frame 33 to drive the rotating wheels 34 to adjust the angle, and then the rotating wheels 34 can rotate under the drive of the drive device 35.
[0063] like Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, the folding frame 2 includes multiple first folding frames 21 and multiple second folding frames 22. The multiple first folding frames 21 are arranged on two horizontally arranged connecting frames 11, and the multiple second folding frames 22 are respectively connected to the horizontal sections of two connecting rods 12. The first folding frames 21 and the second folding frames 22 have the same structure.
[0064] The first folding frame 21 includes two support rods 211, a first telescopic frame 212, and multiple arc-shaped rods 213. The multiple arc-shaped rods 213 are hinged at both ends. The multiple arc-shaped rods 213 and the first telescopic frame 212 are connected between the two support rods 211. One end of the arc-shaped rod 213 is hinged to the first telescopic frame 212.
[0065] Understandably, in practical applications, the shed of the mobile chicken coop is connected to multiple first folding frames 21 and multiple second folding frames 22. When movement is required, the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11 remain stationary, while the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two laterally arranged connecting frames 11 move towards the center position. With the cooperation of the multiple first folding frames 21 and multiple second folding frames 22, the shed of the mobile chicken coop is folded laterally. During the folding process, the two support rods 211 move towards the center position, causing the first telescopic frame 212 to retract, thus reducing the gaps at the multiple tops of the first telescopic frame 212 and driving the hinges... Multiple arc-shaped rods 213 are folded in a wave-like pattern, which in turn drives the top and longitudinal sides of the canopy to fold. The top of the canopy between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22 is folded laterally under the guidance of the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22. The first self-driving wheels 3 on the two transversely arranged connecting frames 11 are fixed. As the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11 move towards the middle position, the gap between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22 decreases, and the top and sides of the canopy between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22 are folded.
[0066] When the fabric is moved to the designated position and unfolded, as the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11 move to the longitudinal sides, the gap between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22 increases, unfolding the top and sides of the fabric between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22. As the first self-driving wheels 3 on the two transversely arranged connecting frames 11 move to the transverse sides, the distance between the two support rods 211 increases, causing the first telescopic frame 212 to unfold. This increases the gap between the multiple tops of the first telescopic frame 212, causing the multiple hinged arc rods 213 to unfold and cooperate to form arc support rods 211 supporting the top of the fabric, thereby unfolding the top and longitudinal sides of the fabric, thus achieving the adjustment of the internal space size of the fabric.
[0067] like Figure 9 As shown, multiple first folding frames 21 are connected to multiple first reinforcing rods 23, and multiple second folding frames 22 are connected to multiple second reinforcing rods 24. A second telescopic frame 25 and multiple folding rods 26 are connected between the corresponding first reinforcing rods 23 and second reinforcing rods 24. The multiple folding rods 26 are hinged at both ends, and one end of the folding rod 26 is hinged to the second telescopic frame 25.
[0068] It is understandable that during the process of the first self-driving wheel 3 on the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11 moving towards the middle position, when the gap between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22 decreases, it is difficult to neatly fold the top and sides of the canopy between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22, which may easily lead to damage to the canopy or / and jamming within the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22, and affect the overall aesthetics. Therefore, during the process of the first self-driving wheel 3 on the two longitudinally arranged connecting frames 11 moving towards the middle position, the gap between the first reinforcing rod 23 and the second reinforcing rod 24 decreases, which drives the second telescopic frame 25 to fold, thereby reducing the gap between the multiple tops of the second telescopic frame 25. This causes the multiple hinged folding rods 26 to fold neatly in a wave shape. Under the folding action of the multiple folding rods 26, the canopy between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22 is initially folded into a wave shape, and further folded into multiple neatly arranged cones, and the sides of the canopy between the first folding frame 21 and the second folding frame 22 are neatly folded.
[0069] like Figure 1 and Figure 10 As shown, the connecting frame 11 is equipped with two storage boxes 5, and each storage box 5 is equipped with a telescopic fence 51. One end of the telescopic fence 51 is slidably connected to the storage box 5. A second electric cylinder 52 is installed through the storage box 5. The second electric cylinder 52 is connected to the top of one end of the telescopic fence 51. The other end of the two telescopic fences 51 is connected to a support fence 53. The bottom end of the support fence 53 is equipped with multiple casters 54. The support fence 53 is used to cooperate with the telescopic fence 51 to form an open-air breeding space after the telescopic fence 51 is unfolded.
[0070] Understandably, in conventional mobile chicken houses, chickens are confined to an enclosed space for extended periods. Their field of vision and activity area are limited by the size of the space, and ventilation systems are required to exchange air between the inside and outside. These ventilation systems increase the mobile chicken house's carrying capacity and energy consumption, adding to its burden. Therefore, two storage boxes 5 are provided on the connecting frame 11. Each storage box 5 contains a telescopic fence 51, with one end of the telescopic fence 51 slidably connected inside the storage box 5, and the other ends of the two telescopic fences 51 connected to… With the support fence 53 attached; after moving to the designated position and expanding the overall footprint of the mobile chicken house, the two second electric cylinders 52 are simultaneously pushed out, causing the top of one end of the telescopic fence 51 to slide downward in the storage box 5, so that the telescopic fence 51 unfolds outward from the storage box 5. The other ends of the two telescopic fences 51 push the support fence 53 to move. Multiple casters 54 rotate on the ground and support the support fence 53. After the telescopic fence 51 is unfolded into place, the two telescopic fences 51 and the support fence 53 form an open-air breeding space.
[0071] The mobile chicken house has an entrance and exit on the shed corresponding to the support fence 53. The entrance and exit are located between two telescopic fences 51. After the two telescopic fences 51 and the support fence 53 form an open-air breeding space, the chickens can enter the open-air breeding space from the shed space. The open-air breeding space further expands the activity space of the chickens. At the same time, the connection between the open-air breeding space and the shed space reduces the generation of exhaust gas when the chickens are concentrated in the shed space, forming natural ventilation and avoiding the use of ventilation devices.
[0072] When the mobile chicken coop needs to be moved, before reducing the overall footprint of the mobile chicken coop, the two second electric cylinders 52 retract synchronously, causing the top of one end of the telescopic fence 51 to slide upwards inside the storage box 5, so that the telescopic fence 51 folds into the storage box 5. The other end of the two telescopic fences 51 drives the support fence 53 to return to its original position. During the movement of the telescopic fences 51, the chickens in the open-air breeding space are driven into the coop space. After the two telescopic fences 51 are folded into place, the support fence 53 blocks the entrance and exit of the coop cloth to prevent the chickens in the coop space from escaping.
[0073] It should be noted that the support rods 211 on both sides of the support fence 53 are provided with sliding grooves, the bottom end of the telescopic fence 51 is hinged in the sliding groove, and the middle and top of the end of the telescopic fence 51 are slidably connected in the sliding groove.
