Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pig farming auxiliary equipment, in particular to an intelligent cooling and spraying system for a pig house. Background Art

[0002] Pigs are an important animal husbandry, widely used in meat production and other purposes. The suitable temperature for pigs is 18~25℃. Pigs have poor self-regulation ability of body temperature. High temperature environment in summer will seriously affect the physiological function and production performance of pigs. In order to ensure the normal production of pig houses, effective cooling measures must be taken in summer. Providing a suitable temperature environment for pigs is one of the important contents of pig farm management.

[0003] At present, the commonly used cooling methods in pig farms include ventilation, sunshade, wet curtains, etc., but these methods have certain disadvantages, such as poor ventilation effect, high sunshade cost, and easy clogging of wet curtains. In addition, these methods require manual operation or timed control, and cannot be automatically adjusted according to the real-time temperature in the pig house, which is not conducive to the growth of pigs and cannot achieve energy-saving effects.

[0004] After searching, it was found that the Chinese patent with the publication (publication) number "CN106804433A" disclosed a ventilated and cooled pig house, which includes a pig house body, a shower assembly arranged in the pig house body, and a fan arranged at the top of the pig house body, and the fan is arranged above the shower assembly. The present invention installs a set of shower assemblies on the pig house body, which can cool down by spraying, and installs a fan above the shower assembly to achieve a cooling effect; in addition, a skylight is installed on the top of the pig house body to increase the circulation and brightness of the pig house. This device can reduce the temperature inside the pig house, improve the living environment of the animals, and fundamentally improve the breeding efficiency; in addition, this pig house is simple to operate and low in cost, and has strong market competitiveness.

[0005] However, in actual use, due to the large area of ​​the pig house, the shower assembly can only shower a part of the pig house, which is inconvenient to shower and clean the entire pig house, and the cooling cannot be guaranteed. At the same time, the cooling of the pig house needs to be manually controlled, which is more troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0006] Therefore, in order to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings, the utility model provides an intelligent cooling spray system for a pig house. The system can conveniently spray the pig house as a whole by setting a movable spray pipe, thereby achieving overall cooling. At the same time, by setting a central controller and a temperature sensing device, the valve of the spray pipe can be automatically controlled according to the temperature in the pig house. It is simple to use and easy to operate.

[0007] The utility model is implemented by constructing an intelligent cooling and spraying system for pig houses, including a shed, which is erected above the confinement house;

[0014] Specifically, the outer end of the spray pipe is also sleeved with a sleeve.

[0015] Specifically, a strip hole parallel to the strip hole is provided at the lower end of the mounting beam, and fixing holes corresponding to the strip hole are provided circumferentially on the connecting head. Fasteners are inserted into the strip hole after passing through the fixing holes to prevent the spray pipe from rotating during movement.

[0016] Specifically, the linear drive device is a rodless cylinder, a clamping plate is arranged on the outer side of the movable end thereof, the clamping plate is clamped on the outer side of the spray pipe to drive the spray pipe to move, and the temperature sensing device can be installed at the bottom of the clamping plate.

[0030] The technical solution of the present invention is further specifically described below through specific embodiments in combination with the accompanying drawings; it should be understood that the specific implementation methods described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention in any way; the accompanying drawings in the present invention are only used to assist in the description of the embodiments and to facilitate understanding, and are not intended to limit the present invention in any way.

[0031] It should be noted that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc. illustrated in the drawings of this specification are only used to match the contents disclosed in the specification so that people familiar with this technology can understand and read them, and are not used to limit the conditions under which the present invention can be implemented. Any structural modification, change in proportional relationship or adjustment of size should still fall within the scope of the technical contents disclosed in the present invention without affecting the effects and purposes that can be achieved by the present invention.

[0032] As described in the background technology, when the internal temperature of the existing pig house needs to be adjusted, it needs to be controlled manually, which is rather troublesome. In addition, when cooling, only fixed positions in the pig house can be cooled, which is not convenient for achieving overall cooling.

[0033] Based on the above reasons, the utility model provides a pig house intelligent cooling and spraying system, including a shed 1, which is erected above a confinement house 2;

[0034] A spray pipe 3 provided with a valve is installed above the enclosure 2 through a mounting beam 4 and can move linearly;

[0035] The temperature sensing device 8 is arranged at both ends of the spray pipe 3 and moves with the spray pipe 3;

[0036] A linear drive device 6, disposed on the mounting beam 4, is used to drive the spray pipe 3 to move linearly above the enclosure 2; and

[0037] The central controller is electrically connected to the temperature sensing device 8, the linear drive device 6 and the spray pipe 3 to control the operation or stop of the aforementioned devices.

[0038] Furthermore, the temperature sensing device can be a digital temperature sensor, which has the characteristics of high precision and fast response, and can reflect the temperature changes in the pig house in real time. The central controller is a microcontroller, which has the characteristics of high performance and low power consumption. It can control the valve of the spray pipe 3 to open or close through relays or other switching elements according to the changes in the temperature signal.

[0039] Specifically, there are multiple mounting beams 4, which are symmetrically mounted on the scaffolds 1 at both ends of the enclosure 2 and kept horizontally arranged. Long holes are opened on the sides of the mounting beams 4, and the spray pipes 3 pass through the long holes and move linearly in the long holes.

[0040] Furthermore, the mounting beam 4 can be fixedly installed at a distance of 2 meters from the ground.

[0041] Specifically, one end of the spray pipe 3 passes through the strip hole of the mounting beam 4 and the end is sealed by a plug, so that the spray pipe 3 spans above the enclosure 2, and the other end of the spray pipe 3 is movably connected to the external hose 5 through a connector 9, and a plurality of spray holes are linearly opened at the bottom of the spray pipe 3, and an atomizing nozzle can be installed in the spray holes.

[0042] Furthermore, the atomizing nozzle is a high-frequency atomizing nozzle, which can atomize water into fine droplets.

[0043] Specifically, the outer end of the spray pipe 3 is also covered with a sleeve 10.

[0044] Furthermore, the purpose of setting the sleeve is to facilitate blocking a part of the spray holes to prevent the spray position from corresponding to the aisle. The sleeve can also be set as a tape wrapped around the outside of the spray pipe, etc., and only a part of the spray holes need to be blocked.

[0045] Specifically, a strip hole parallel to the strip hole is provided at the lower end of the elongated hole of the mounting beam 4, and fixing holes corresponding to the strip holes are provided circumferentially on the connecting head 9, through which fasteners are inserted into the strip holes after passing through the fixing holes to prevent the spray pipe 3 from rotating during movement.

[0046] As described in the previous paragraph, the purpose of opening the long holes and the strip holes on the mounting beam is to ensure that the spray pipe moves in a straight line on the mounting beam and prevent the spray pipe from rotating.

[0047] Furthermore, the fixing hole may be a threaded hole, and the fastener may be a bolt. After the bolt is screwed into any fixing hole and inserted into the strip hole, the bolt may move linearly in the strip hole along with the spray pipe, thereby preventing the spray pipe from rotating.

[0048] Specifically, the linear drive device 6 is a rodless cylinder, and a clamping plate 7 is provided on the outer side of its movable end. The clamping plate 7 is clamped on the outer side of the spray pipe 3 to drive the spray pipe 3 to move. The temperature sensing device 8 can be installed at the bottom of the clamping plate 7.

[0049] As described in the previous paragraph, the purpose of providing the card plate is to facilitate the moving end of the rodless cylinder to push the spray pipe to move, thereby achieving overall cooling of the interior of the enclosure.

[0050] Before using the utility model, it is necessary to install the temperature sensing device 8 at a suitable position in the enclosure 2 (as above, it can be installed at the bottom of the pallet 7), install the central controller at a safe position outside the enclosure 2, connect the spray pipe 3 to the external water source through the external hose 5, and establish wireless or wired communication connection between the central controller and the temperature sensing device 8, the linear drive device 6 and the spray pipe 3, and then set a preset temperature threshold, such as 25 degrees Celsius, on the central controller.

[0051] When using the utility model, the temperature sensing device 8 will continuously detect the temperature in the pen 2 and send the temperature signal to the central controller. The central controller will compare the received temperature signal with the preset temperature threshold. If the temperature signal is greater than the temperature threshold, it means that the temperature in the pen 2 is too high and needs to be cooled down. At this time, the central controller will control the valve of the spray pipe 3 to open, spray water into the pen 2 through the atomizing nozzle, and start the linear drive device 6 (i.e., rodless cylinder) to run. There are touch switches at both ends of the linear drive device 6. When the moving end contacts the touch switch, it will move in the opposite direction, thereby driving the spray pipe 3 to reciprocate above the pen 2 to provide a cooling environment for the pigs; if the temperature signal is less than the temperature threshold, it means that the temperature in the pen 2 is suitable and does not need to be cooled down. At this time, the central controller will control the valve of the spray pipe 3 to close, stop spraying water, avoid wasting water resources and causing excessive cooling, and turn off the linear drive device 6. In this way, the utility model can automatically adjust according to the real-time temperature in the pen 2 to provide a comfortable temperature environment for the pigs.

[0052] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred feasible embodiment of the utility model, but the embodiment is not used to limit the scope of the patent application of the utility model. All equivalent changes or modified changes completed under the technical spirit suggested by the utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the utility model.
