Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an incubation device, which can inhibit the generation of condensation by preventing the external temperature and the internal temperature from being conducted, and can evenly disperse the internal circulating fluid. Background Art

[0002] Generally, an incubator is a device used to artificially hatch eggs of chickens, ducks, and other poultry, also known as an incubator. This type of incubator is usually used for chicken eggs. In the process of raising chickens, a large number of breeding eggs (fertilized eggs) are placed in an incubator for artificial incubation instead of having the hen incubate the fertilized eggs (the natural incubation method), thereby improving the hatching efficiency.

[0003] On the other hand, incubators are structurally classified into planar incubators and three-dimensional incubators, either of which is configured to use electric heat as a heat source and is capable of regulating the internal temperature.

[0004] The former is generally small, has low efficiency and is easily affected by the outside temperature, so it is not widely used at present. The latter is equipped with a shelf-shaped egg holder (a shelf for placing eggs), a temperature regulator, a water bowl, a fan, an air agitator, an egg holder for hatching, etc. in the incubator.

[0005] On the other hand, the temperature in the incubator is preferably maintained at about 38°C and the humidity is maintained between 60% and 80%.

[0006] Usually, before fertilized eggs are placed in the incubator, they are sometimes kept warm at 21°C for several hours. The eggs are rotated 4 to 6 times a day to ensure that all parts of the eggs are heated evenly, and the eggs are checked 3 times during this period. On the 18th day, they are moved to the incubation egg holder and wait for hatching on the 21st day. In practice, several or more incubators are often managed together, and the indoor temperature of the incubation room or hatchery is adjusted to 18°C ​​to 25°C, and the layout and lighting are designed to facilitate various tasks.

[0007] In addition, the incubator is preferably fully sterilized before and after placing the eggs. Such an incubator is disclosed through various embodiments, among which, in the following patent document 1, "Incubator (Korean Authorized Utility Model Gazette No. 20-0465220)", an incubator is provided, characterized in that the cover is made of a thin stainless steel material, and a plurality of exhaust holes are formed on the surface of the cover to allow hot air to be exhausted through the exhaust holes, and for the heating coil provided at the bottom of the cover, after the guide is fixed to the cover, a partition is provided on the guide, and a heating coil is provided at the end of the guide, so that the cover is not directly heated and the heat and water vapor circulated by the fan are exhausted through the exhaust holes perforated on the partition, and the incubator has the following advantages: the heat heated by the heating coil can be used to heat the water collected in the water storage tank, thereby generating water vapor and exhausting the heat to the tray, thereby maintaining the optimal temperature and humidity of the hatchable eggs.

[0008] However, the "incubator" of Patent Document 1 has the following problem: when the temperature inside the incubator rises, condensation occurs on the outer side of the incubator due to the temperature difference between the outside and the inside of the incubator, and the generation of such condensation causes the internal temperature to drop.

[0048] In the following description Figure 1In the description, the side from the controller 900 toward the door 130 is defined as the front for explanation, the side from the door 130 toward the controller 900 is defined as the rear for explanation, the direction from the upper shell 111 toward the lower shell 115 is defined as the bottom for explanation, and the direction from the lower shell 115 toward the upper shell 111 is defined as the top for explanation.

[0049] Reference Figures 1 to 13 The incubation device 10 of one embodiment of the utility model can prevent the external temperature from being transmitted to the temperature generated inside it, and can evenly maintain the internal temperature deviation to facilitate the incubation of internal objects. The incubation device 10 may include: an outer cover 100, a support part 200, a plate part 300, an egg turning drive part 410, a heating part 450, an air supply fan 470 and a controller 900.

[0050] The outer cover 100 can block the conduction of the external temperature to the internal temperature, and the internal supply plate part 300, the egg turning drive part 410, the heating part 450 and the air supply fan 470 are set. The controller 900 is combined with the outer side of the outer cover 100, and in order to enable one side of the outer cover 100 to be opened and closed, the outer cover 100 may include an external shell 110, a door 130, a connecting member 150, a disassembly part 160 and a combined shell 170.

[0051] The outer housing 110 may be formed in a quadrangular cross section. In addition, the outer housing 110 may have a space formed inside and be in a shape with a front (which may be a side surface of the outer housing 110) open, and may prevent condensation from forming on the upper side of the door 130 due to the conduction of the temperature formed inside and the external temperature. The outer housing 110 may include an upper housing 111, a side housing 113, and a lower housing 115.

[0052] The upper housing 111 may be formed into a quadrangular cross section. For example, the upper housing 111 may be plate-shaped. In addition, the upper housing 111 may be spaced apart from the bottom surface. At this time, the side housing 113 described later may be connected to the upper housing 111 so as to be spaced apart from the bottom surface.

[0053] In addition, a mounting hole 111a formed by penetrating a four-corner cross section may be formed on the rear side of the upper housing 111. The mounting hole 111a is used for coupling with a coupling housing 170 described later, and a controller 900 may be coupled to the upper surface of the coupling housing 170 to control the egg turning driving unit 410, the heating unit 450 and the air supply fan 470 disposed inside the coupling housing 170.

[0054] In addition, the upper housing 111 may prevent the fluid (which may be internal temperature or air) from being discharged to the upper portion.

[0055] At this time, the upper housing 111 may be formed with a first exhaust slit 111 b and a second exhaust slit 111 c to prevent condensation from being formed at a portion where a door 130 described later is connected to the upper housing 111 due to a difference between internal and external temperatures.

[0056] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first discharge slit 111b may be formed at the front end of the upper housing 111. At this time, the front end of the upper housing 111 may be formed to protrude downward. In addition, the first discharge slit 111b is formed on the surface of the upper housing 111 that protrudes downward.

[0057] In addition, the first discharge slit 111b may be a hole extending from the left side to the right side (which may be the width of the upper housing 111). In addition, a plurality of first discharge slits 111b may be formed. Thus, the conduction of heat moving between the inner side and the outer side of the upper housing 111 may be reduced.

[0058] In addition, the front and rear surfaces of the mounting hole 111a formed at the rear of the upper housing 111 may be formed to protrude downward. In addition, a plurality of second discharge slits 111c may be formed on the surface protruding downward.

[0059] The second discharge slit 111c may be formed in the same shape as the first discharge slit 111b, that is, the second discharge slit 111c may be formed to extend along the left-right length direction of the surface protruding downward, and may be formed in plurality.

[0060] In addition, the protruding surface formed with the first discharge slit 111b and the protruding surface formed with the second discharge slit 111c may be formed at the same height. In this case, another member may be provided between the protruding surface formed with the first discharge slit 111b and the protruding surface formed with the second discharge slit 111c.

[0061] At this time, a side housing 113 extending downward may be combined with the outer side surface of the upper housing 111 .

[0062] The side housing 113 may be formed in plural numbers, thereby sealing the left side, the right side, and the rear of the upper housing 111. In addition, the side housing 113 may be formed in a quadrangular cross-section.

[0063] In addition, the side housing 113 located on the right side may be connected to a door 130 described later by hinges and the like, so that the door 130 can rotate in a state connected to the side housing 113 located on the right side.

[0064] In addition, in order to improve the closing force when closing the door 130, an elastic locking portion 120 may be combined with the left side of the side housing 113. For example, in the closed state where the door 130 is connected to the outer housing 110, the elastic locking portion 120 provided on the left side of the outer housing 110 may make the locking state of the door 130 more secure and sealed.

[0065] Reference Figure 1a and Figure 1b The elastic locking portion 120 can be fixed to the side shell 113 located on the left side by screws, and in order to facilitate sealing with the door 130, it can include: an elastic body 121, an elastic member 123 and a protruding member 123a.

[0066] The elastic body 121 can fix the rear end of the elastic locking portion 120 by screwing the rear end of the elastic member 123 having a predetermined elastic force together with the side housing 113 .

[0067] In addition, the elastic member 123 may be formed to protrude forward of the elastic body 121, and the front end of the elastic member 123 may be bent to the left and then bent backward to form a "ㄈ" shape. Thus, the end of the elastic member 123 is easy to grasp, so that the elastic member 123 can be easily removed from the door 130.

[0068] The protruding member 123a may be formed protrudingly on the outer side of the elastic member 123. At this time, the protruding member 123a may be inserted into the spacing groove 131a of the door 130 described later, so that the elastic locking part 120 fixes the side housing 113 and the door 130.

[0069] Thus, the object (which may be an incubated object) can be easily accommodated in or taken out of the housing 100 through the elastic locking portion 120 .

[0070] In addition, one side housing 113 may be multi-layered. For example, one side housing 113 may be formed by combining two plates.

[0071] At this time, a lower housing 115 that connects the plurality of side housings 113 and is formed to have the same size as the upper housing 111 may be coupled to a lower end of the side housing 113 that extends downward.

[0072] The lower case 115 may form a bottom surface of the housing 100. In addition, the lower case 115 may be formed in a quadrangular cross-section.

[0073] As described above, a space open at the front may be formed inside by the upper housing 111 , the side housing 113 , and the lower housing 115 .

[0074] At this time, a door 130 may be coupled to the open portions in front of the upper housing 111 , the side housing 113 , and the lower housing 115 so that the front of the housing 100 can be opened and closed.

[0075] The door 130 may be formed in a quadrangular cross section. In addition, the door 130 may include a door plate 131 and a sheet portion 133 to prevent condensation generated at the upper end of the front portion of the housing 100, and to enable the front portion of the door 130 to be opened and closed, and the door 130 may include a connecting member 150 and a disassembly portion 160 to be able to combine the door plate 131 and the sheet portion 133.

[0076] The door panel 131 may be in a "ㄈ" shape. In addition, the door panel 131 may be formed as a pair and disposed at the upper end and the lower end. In addition, the door panel 131 may be formed in such a manner that the protruding portions in the "ㄈ" shape are opposite to each other. At this time, the door panel 131 located at the upper portion and the door panel 131 located at the lower portion may be combined via the disassembly and assembly portion 160 described later.

[0077] In addition, in the door panel 131, the surface formed at the front end and the surface formed at the rear end may be formed at the same height, and a spacing groove 131a may be formed between the surface formed at the front end and the surface formed at the rear end.

[0078] That is, the height between the front end and the rear end of the door panel 131 is low so that a spacing groove 131a is formed between the front end and the rear end. Thus, the thermal conductivity between the front end and the rear end of the door panel 131 can be reduced, thereby reducing the temperature conduction between the inside of the outer cover 100 located behind the door panel 131 and the outside of the front of the door panel 131.

[0079] This can prevent condensation from forming in the portion located in front of the door panel 131 or in the upper end portion of the sheet portion 133 described later. In this case, a plurality of sheet portions 133 may be connected between the pair of door panels 131 .

[0080] The sheet portion 133 may be formed into a square cross section. In addition, the sheet portion 133 may be formed of glass, PC, ABS, etc. In addition, the sheet portion 133 may be formed of a transparent material. In addition, the sheet portion 133 may be formed of multiple layers. In this case, the multiple layers may be a first sheet member 133a, a second sheet member 133b, and a third sheet member 133c.

[0081] In addition, the sheet portion 133 may be provided in pairs at each layer. In this case, a pair of sheet portions 133 may be provided at the front and rear of the inner side of the door panel 131 .

[0082] For example, the first sheet member 133 may be disposed on the inner side of the upper door panel 131. In addition, the third sheet member 133c may be disposed on the inner side of the lower door panel 131. In this case, the second sheet member 133b may be disposed between the first sheet member 133a and the third sheet member 133c, and a connecting member 150 and a disassembly portion 160 may be disposed on the outer side of the second sheet member 133b, so that the second sheet member 133b is detachably combined with the first sheet member 133a and the third sheet member 133c.

[0083] The connection member 150 may be formed in a quadrangular cross section. In addition, a plurality of connection members 150 may be provided. In addition, the connection member 150 may be provided at the front end and the rear end of the side housing 113 .

[0084] For example, the connecting member 150 may be formed of four. In addition, the connecting member 150 may extend downward from the top portion of the upper housing 111 and the upper portion of the lower housing 115, and may connect the upper housing 111, the lower housing 115, and the side housing 113 disposed between the upper housing 111 and the lower housing 115.

[0085] The connecting member 150 can connect the upper housing 111, the side housing 113, and the lower housing 115 by connecting to the front end and the rear end of the side housing 113. In addition, the connecting member 150 can be connected to a rotating connection portion (not shown) on the outer side surface, and the door 130 can be connected to the front of the outer cover 100 in an openable and closable manner by rotating the rotating connection portion.

[0086] At this time, a detachable portion 160 may be coupled between the connecting member 150 and the sheet portion 133 so that the plurality of sheet portions 133 are coupled to the connecting member 150 (which is disposed adjacent to the door 130 and extends up and down).

[0087] For example, the detachable part 160 may be coupled to a portion protruding toward the front of the connecting member 150. In addition, the detachable part 160 may be formed to extend up and down. In addition, the upper part of the detachable part 160 is used to couple the lower part of the first sheet member 133a and the connecting member 150, the lower part of the detachable part 160 is used to couple the third sheet member 133c and the connecting member 150, and the left and right side surfaces of the second sheet member 133b may be coupled at the center of the detachable part 160.

[0088] At this time, the disassembly part 160 may include a vertical member 161 and a horizontal member 163 for disassembly of the first sheet member 133a, the second sheet member 133b and the third sheet member 133c and the connecting member 150, and facilitates disassembly of the first sheet member 133a, the second sheet member 133b and the third sheet member 133c.

[0089] The vertical member 161 may be formed in a quadrangular cross section. In addition, a "ㄈ"-shaped groove may be formed inside the vertical member 161. In addition, the vertical member 161 may be formed in a pair. At this time, the protruding portion of the vertical member 161 may be formed in such a manner that the pair of vertical members 161 are opposite to each other.

[0090] In addition, the vertical member 161 may be formed to extend in the up-down direction. In addition, two or more disassembly bodies 161a may be combined inside each vertical member 161. The disassembly body 161a may be in a "ㄈ" shape, and the size of the disassembly body 161a is smaller than the vertical member 161 and is combined with a groove formed inside the vertical member 161.

[0091] In addition, the disassembly main body 161a can be combined with the upper side and the lower side of the second sheet member 133b. In addition, the central portion of the disassembly main body 161a can be formed with an insertion hole 161b. Thus, when the inside of the vertical member 161 can be combined with the disassembly main body 161a formed with the insertion hole 161b, and the horizontal member 163 described later is arranged on a straight line corresponding to the position where the insertion hole 161b of the disassembly main body 161a is formed, the screw 161c can be combined with the inner side of the insertion hole 161b to combine the vertical member 161 and the horizontal member 163.

[0092] The horizontal member 163 is coupled to the vertical member 161 in a state of being coupled between the plurality of sheet portions 133 , and may include a horizontal body 163 a formed with a coupling groove 163 b .

[0093] The horizontal body 163a may be formed as a pair. In addition, the upper horizontal body 163a may be used to combine the lower end of the first sheet member 133a and the upper end of the second sheet member 133b. In addition, the lower horizontal body 163a may be used to combine the lower end of the second sheet member 133b and the upper end of the third sheet member 133c.

[0094] In addition, the horizontal body 163a can be formed to extend in a direction in which the plurality of sheet portions 133 extend from the left to the right. In addition, the horizontal member 163 can have an "H"-shaped cross section with its opening direction facing upward and downward.

[0095] In addition, a plate with a four-corner cross-section facing upward and downward may protrude from the left and right ends of the horizontal main body 163a, and screw holes (not shown) may be formed at positions corresponding to the above-mentioned multiple insertion holes 161b so that the screws 161c passing through the insertion holes 161b can be engaged with the screw holes, thereby combining the vertical member 161 and the horizontal member 163.

[0096] In addition, the horizontal body 163a may be formed to protrude so that a groove having a shape corresponding to the thickness (which may be from the front to the rear of the sheet portion 133) may be formed on the inner side thereof.

[0097] At this time, by forming two or more protruding portions, a groove can be formed between the protruding portions, thereby allowing a plurality of sheet portions 133 in pairs to be coupled.

[0098] For example, two grooves may be formed at the upper portion of the horizontal body 163a located at the upper portion, thereby combining the lower end portions of the paired first sheet members 133a. That is, the pair of first sheet members 133a may be combined in a manner of being spaced apart from each other. At this time, the upper end portion of the first sheet member 133a may be combined with the lower portion of the door panel 131 located at the upper portion.

[0099] In addition, two grooves may be formed at the lower portion of the upper horizontal body 163a, thereby coupling the pair of second sheet members 133b. That is, the pair of second sheet members 133b may be coupled to each other with a gap therebetween.

[0100] In addition, two grooves may be formed at the upper portion of the lower horizontal body 163a, thereby coupling the lower ends of the pair of second sheet members 133b. That is, the pair of second sheet members 133b may be coupled to each other with a gap therebetween.

[0101] In addition, two grooves may be formed at the lower portion of the lower horizontal body 163a, thereby coupling the upper ends of the paired third sheet members 133c. That is, the pair of third sheet members 133c may be coupled to each other with a gap therebetween.

[0102] At this time, the lower end of the third sheet member 133c can be combined with the upper portion of the lower door panel 131. Thus, the pair of sheet members (first sheet member 133a, second sheet member 133b, third sheet member 133c) can effectively block heat conduction by being spaced apart from each other.

[0103] The combined housing 170 may include an inner housing 171 , a combined plate 173 , and an additional plate 175 , so that the support part 200 , the egg turning driving part 410 , the heating part 450 , and the air supply fan 470 may be disposed inside the outer cover 100 .

[0104] The inner housing 171 may be formed into a quadrangular cross section. In addition, the inner housing 171 may be in a shape with an open lower end. In addition, the inner housing 171 may be formed into a shape corresponding to the mounting hole 111a formed in the upper housing 111, so that the inner housing 171 is combined with the mounting hole 111a of the upper housing 111.

[0105] At this time, a controller 900 may be provided at the upper end of the inner shell 171 for the user to control the egg turning driving unit 410 , the heating unit 450 and the air supply fan 470 coupled to the inner side of the inner shell 171 .

[0106] In addition, the upper end of the internal housing 171 may be formed to protrude toward the left and right sides. Thus, the protruding portion of the internal housing 171 can be inserted between the upper housing 111 and the side housing 113 and combined with screws, etc., so as to be firmly fixed. In addition, by grasping the protruding portion of the internal housing 171, the internal housing 171 can be easily separated from the mounting hole 111a, so that other components combined with the internal housing 171 can be easily separated.

[0107] In addition, a coupling plate 173 may be formed in the front of the inner case 171. The coupling plate 173 is formed with a plurality of holes so that the fluid inside the housing 100 can move to the inside of the inner case 171.

[0108] At this time, the additional plate 175 is combined in front of the coupling plate 173, so as to further separate the plurality of holes formed in the coupling plate 173. Thus, the fluid inside the housing 100 can easily flow into the inner side of the inner shell 171. At this time, the support part 200 can be combined on the lower side of the coupling plate 173 and the additional plate 175 in front of the inner shell 171. That is, the coupling plate 173 and the additional plate 175 can form a heat dissipation port to allow the fluid to move to the inner side of the coupling shell 170.

[0109] The support part 200 may be formed in a quadrangular cross section. In addition, the support part 200 may be formed in a direction extending from the upper part to the lower part. In addition, the support part 200 may be formed with a plurality of holes for the plate part 300 to be coupled.

[0110] For example, the support portion 200 is formed to extend in the vertical direction, and a support hole 201 is formed through one side thereof. At this time, the support hole 201 is a hole formed to support any side of the plate portion 300, and the fixing protrusion 303 of the plate portion 300 can be inserted through the support hole 201, so that any side of the plate portion 300 is supported by the support portion 200.

[0111] In addition, a plurality of support holes 201 are formed at intervals along the vertical direction of the support portion 200 , so that the support portion 200 can support any side of a plurality of plates, that is, any side of the first plate 310 to the fourth plate 340 .

[0112] Preferably, a guide member 305 may be further provided at the lower portion of the support hole 201 so that the fixing protrusion 303 of the plate portion 300 can rotate smoothly.

[0113] In addition, a worm wheel-shaped egg-turning gear 210 having saw teeth on its outer peripheral surface may be provided on the support portion 200. The egg-turning gear 210 is connected to an egg-turning driving unit 410 of the device driving unit 400 described later, and may be a gear for rotating the plate portion 300 to turn over the object.

[0114] In addition, the egg-turning gear 210 may be combined with any of the plate portions 300 to enable the plate portion 300 to rotate in the left-right direction.

[0115] On the other hand, a plurality of plates 300 may be disposed in the housing 100 of the incubation device 10 of the present invention, and a transmission member 230 may be disposed on one side of the plurality of plates 300 . The transmission member 230 is spaced apart from the support portion 200 and extends in the up-down direction.

[0116] The transmission member 230 is used to connect any plate portion 300 combined with the egg-turning gear 210 and the remaining plate portions 300. When any plate portion 300 is rotated by the egg-turning gear 210, the transmission member 230 can be a member that transmits the rotational force to enable the remaining plate portions 300 to rotate together.

[0117] In addition, preferably, the transmission member 230 is hingedly coupled to one side of the plurality of plate portions 300 to achieve smooth rotation.

[0118] At this time, the upper end of the support part 200 can be combined with the internal shell 171, the lower end of the support part 200 can be combined with the upper side of the lower shell 115, and the plate part 300 can be combined with the hole formed in the support part 200, so that the support part 200 is combined with the internal shell 171, the plate part 300 and the outer cover 100.

[0119] The plate portion 300 may be plate-shaped. In addition, the plate portion 300 may be formed with a plurality of holes, and objects such as eggs may be placed on the plurality of holes. In addition, the plurality of plate portions 300 may include a first plate 310 , a second plate 320 , a third plate 330 , and a fourth plate 340 .

[0120] At this time, the front end portion of the plate portion 300 may be coupled to a fixing member 307 for connecting a pair of connection members 150 located in the front of the housing 100 to each other.

[0121] The fixing member 307 may extend inside the housing 100 in a direction parallel to the length direction of the support portion 200 .

[0122] In addition, the fixing member 307 can support the other side of the plate portion 300 supported by the support portion 200. Such a fixing member 307 is formed to extend in the horizontal direction, and a fixing groove 307a for supporting the opposite side of the plate portion 300 is formed concavely in the upper surface of the fixing member 307 in the up-down direction.

[0123] At this time, since the fixing groove 307a is formed, the fixing protrusion 303 of the plate portion 300 can be inserted into the fixing groove 307a, so that the opposite side of the plate portion 300 can be supported by the fixing member 307. In addition, preferably, the fixing groove 307a and the support hole 201 are formed at the same center point to prevent the plate portion 300 from tilting to either side.

[0124] The fixing members 307 formed with the fixing grooves 307a may be formed in the same number as the number of the supporting holes 201 formed in the supporting portion 200, so that the supporting holes 201 and the fixing grooves 307a are formed at positions corresponding to each other. Preferably, a guide member 305 may also be provided at the lower portion of the fixing grooves 307a so that the fixing protrusions 303 of the plate portion 300 can be smoothly rotated. Thus, the plate portion 300 can be firmly supported by the supporting portion 200 and can be smoothly rotated by the fixing members 307.

[0125] In addition, the rear end of the plate portion 300 may be combined with the support portion 200. At this time, the rear end of the plate portion 300 may be formed to protrude upward, and a hole may be formed on the protruding portion, so that the plate portion 300 is combined with the support portion 200 through a shaft passing through the hole.

[0126] At this time, the first plate 310 can be connected to the egg-turning driving part 410 located inside the inner shell 171 through the shaft-through supporting part 200 , and the first plate 310 can be rotated by the driving of the egg-turning driving part 410 .

[0127] In addition, the first plate 310, the second plate 320, the third plate 330 and the fourth plate 340 are combined with the transmission component 230 for connecting the first plate 310, the second plate 320, the third plate 330 and the fourth plate 340 inside the support part 200 extending along the up and down direction, so that the rotation of other plates can be achieved simultaneously through the rotation of the first plate 310.

[0128] In addition, a device driving unit 400 may be disposed inside the combined housing 170. At this time, the device driving unit 400 may include: an egg turning driving unit 410, a humidifying unit 420, a power supply unit 430, an adjustment switch 440, a heating unit 450 and a blower fan 470.

[0129] An egg-turning driving part 410 combined with the supporting part 200 and the first plate 310 and used to rotate the plate part 300 may be provided, and a heating part 450 spaced apart from the egg-turning driving part 410 may be provided below the egg-turning driving part 410, and at the lower end of the heating part 450, an air supply fan 470 may be combined with a combined shell 170 opened downward.

[0130] In addition, the controller 900 may be combined with the upper side of the combined housing 170 , and the humidifying unit 420 may be combined with the surface facing the inner housing 171 (which may be the surface opposite to the controller 900 ) to provide moisture inside the outer cover 100 .

[0131] In addition, an egg turning driving unit 410 is provided inside the egg turning driving unit 410 , and the egg turning driving unit 410 may include a driving motor 411 , a first gear 412 , a second gear 413 , a rotating shaft 414 and a third gear 415 to rotate the plate portion 300 .

[0132] The first gear 412 and the second gear 413 are commonly used worm gears and worm wheels, and the rotation axes of the first gear 412 and the second gear 413 may be perpendicular to each other.

[0133] In addition, the first gear 412 may be connected to the driving motor 411 to thereby rotate according to the rotation of the driving motor 411 , and the second gear 413 installed in a manner meshed with the serrations of the first gear 412 may rotate together with the rotation of the first gear 412 .

[0134] In addition, the third gear 415 is a worm gear installed in a sawtooth meshing manner with the egg-turning gear 210 , and the third gear 415 can be connected to the second gear 413 and rotated together with the rotation of the second gear 413 .

[0135] At this time, the rotation center of the second gear 413 and the rotation center of the third gear 415 may be connected via the rotation shaft 414 , so that the third gear 415 may receive the rotation force of the second gear 413 via the rotation shaft 414 and rotate together.

[0136] In other words, in the egg-turning drive unit 410, when the first gear 412 is rotated by the drive motor 411, the second gear 413 perpendicularly intersecting the first gear 412 can be rotated, and the rotational force is transmitted to the third gear 415 through the rotating shaft 414 connected to the second gear 413, so that the egg-turning gear 210 is also rotated.

[0137] In addition, the third gear 415 can be installed in a manner of meshing with the saw teeth of the egg-turning gear 210, so that the egg-turning gear 210 can be rotated by the rotational force of the second gear 413. In addition, the first to fourth plates (the first plate 310, the second plate 320, the third plate 330, and the fourth plate 340) combined with the egg-turning gear 210 can rotate in the left and right directions according to the rotation of the egg-turning gear 210. At this time, all the plate parts 300 can perform the same rotation together through the transmission member 230.

[0138] In addition, a humidifying unit 420 may be provided at an upper portion of the egg turning driving unit 410 at a distance from the egg turning driving unit 410 .

[0139] The humidifying unit 420 is a unit for humidifying the interior of the housing 100 , and may include a water tank 421 , a water level adjusting member 422 , a humidifying heater 423 , and a water pump 424 .

[0140] The water tank 421 is a tank that stores and retains water for humidifying the interior of the housing 100 .

[0141] The water tank 421 receives water from a water storage barrel (not shown) disposed outside the housing 100. At this time, the water tank 421 can be connected to the water storage barrel via a hose to receive water from the outside. On the other hand, the hose connecting the water tank 421 and the water storage barrel can be connected to the water pump 424.

[0142] The water pump 424 is a device that pumps the water stored in the water storage barrel into the water tank 421. In addition, the water pump 424 is provided with an inlet for water to flow into the water pump 424 and an outlet for water to flow out of the water pump 424 and be discharged into the water tank 421, so that the water stored in the water storage barrel can be pumped into the water tank 421 by the pumping of the water pump 424.

[0143] A water level adjusting member 422 and a reed switch (not shown) are provided inside the water tank 421. The water level adjusting member 422 and the reed switch are members for detecting the water level of the water poured into the water tank 421.

[0144] The water level regulating member 422 is a well-known float switch provided with a magnet at the end, and a reed switch operated by magnetism is provided at one side of such water level regulating member 422 .

[0145] The reed switch is preferably installed at the maximum height of the water contained in the water tank 421. In addition, when the user opens the cover of the high-temperature humidification unit 420 on the controller 900 during the operation of the incubation device of the utility model, the reed switch operated by the magnet can block the power supply of the humidification unit 420.

[0146] Thus, when the water injected into the water tank 421 is filled and the magnet of the water level adjusting member 422 floats on the water surface, the reed switch detects the water level of the water in the water tank 421 through the magnetic operation of the magnet in the water level adjusting member 422 .

[0147] As described above, the water pump 424 is operated according to the magnetic operation of the water level adjusting member 422 and the reed switch. In addition, the water stored in the water storage barrel is injected into the water tank 421 and automatically filled into the water tank 421 according to the operation of the water pump 424.

[0148] A humidifying heater 423 is accommodated in such a water tank 421. The humidifying heater 423 is a heater that maintains an appropriate temperature by reducing the amount of current by itself, and can evaporate water by being immersed in the water in the water tank 421 and generating heat.

[0149] The water vapor generated by the humidifying heater 423 flows into the inside of the housing 100 to humidify the interior.

[0150] In addition, a light member (not shown) may be provided inside the coupling housing 170 adjacent to the driving motor, and the light member may provide light to the inside of the housing 100 so that the user can check the state of the incubated object inside the housing 100 from the outside.

[0151] In addition, a power supply unit 430 and an adjustment switch 440 connected to the controller 900 via a signal line are also provided inside the combined housing 170 .

[0152] The power supply unit 430 is provided with a power supply unit for supplying power to the humidifying unit 420 and a power supply unit for supplying power to the egg turning driving unit 410 .

[0153] The power supply unit 430 may be connected to the controller 900 via a signal line, and supply power according to the operation of the controller 900 and the user's setting, so as to drive the humidification unit 420 and the egg turning drive unit 410 .

[0154] In addition, an adjustment switch 440 for adjusting the egg-turning angle of the plate portion 300 may be further provided on the inner side of the combined housing 170 .

[0155] The adjustment switch 440 is used to grasp the origin of the plate portion 300 rotated by the egg-turning gear 210 . The adjustment switch 440 of the present invention uses a micro switch.

[0156] Such an adjustment switch 440 uses a micro switch, so that the fixed rotation operation of the plate part 300 can be operated by a predetermined force.

[0157] In addition, inside the combined housing 170 , the rotating shaft 414 of the egg turning driving unit 410 may be provided in a manner of penetrating the combined housing 170 .

[0158] In addition, a heating unit 450 is provided at a distance below the egg turning driving unit 410 to supply heat in a manner that the internal temperature can be adjusted. In this case, the heating unit 450 may use a coil heater or a sheath heater.

[0159] In addition, a blower fan 470 may be provided below the heating unit 450 . The blower fan 470 is spaced apart from the heating unit 450 and is coupled to the coupling housing 170 , and discharges heat generated in the heating unit 450 to below the coupling housing 170 .

[0160] The air supply fan 470 may be installed to be inclined at a predetermined angle so that water vapor and heat can be uniformly supplied to the inside of the housing 100 .

[0161] For example, the rear end of the air supply fan 470 may be coupled to a surface formed by the side surface of the inner case 171. In addition, the air supply fan 470 may be provided at the rear of the inner case 171.

[0162] In addition, the front end of the air supply fan 470 may be arranged lower than the rear end thereof. In this case, the front end of the air supply fan 470 may be arranged below the surface formed in front of the inner case 171 and spaced apart from the lower end of the inner case 171 .

[0163] Thus, the fluid (which may be a gas formed of air or the like formed inside the housing 100 ) flows in front of the air-supply fan 470 inclined at a predetermined angle, and is discharged from the rear of the air-supply fan 470 .

[0164] Reference Figure 8 For a fluid formed by gas (which may be air, etc.), the internally heated fluid moves to the front (which may be the upper surface of the air supply fan 470), thereby moving toward the inner side surface of the outer cover 100 (which may be the back of the air supply fan 470).

[0165] At this time, the air blowing fan 470 is formed to be inclined at a predetermined angle so that the front end of the air blowing fan 470 can be spaced apart from the lower end of the inner casing 171 .

[0166] Thus, part of the internal circulating fluid that does not pass through the heating unit 450 is formed inside the housing 100 and flows in front of the air supply fan 470 , so that part of the fluid that is not moved by the air supply fan 470 can be moved to the air supply fan 470 .

[0167] For example, the heating unit 450 disposed inside the inner housing 171 heats the fluid and moves the fluid to the outer housing 100 through the air supply fan 470 so that the fluid can move along the inner side surface of the outer housing 100. At this time, the movement of the fluid located in the center of the outer housing 100 can be reduced compared to the fluid adjacent to the inner side surface of the outer housing 100.

[0168] At this time, since the air supply fan 470 is formed obliquely, the fluid located in the center of the housing 100 can flow into the space spaced apart from the inner shell 171, so that the fluid inside the housing 100 circulates smoothly and the temperature deviation inside the housing 100 is minimized.

[0169] As a result, eggs (which may be an object located inside) or the like can be heated evenly, so that hatching can be continuously and stably performed.

[0170] The above utility model is described by referring to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings, but this is only for schematic illustration, and a person skilled in the art will understand that various modifications can be made therefrom, and all or part of the above embodiments can also be selectively combined and constituted. Therefore, the true technical protection scope of the utility model should be defined by the technical ideas of the attached claims.
