Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of metabolic cages, in particular to a poultry growth metabolic cage weighing equipment. Background Art

[0002] Metabolic cages are used to study the growth and metabolism of animals, detect the growth of animal food intake and weight, and study the absorption and utilization of food. However, during the use of current metabolic cages, the unbalanced force between the weighing device and the metabolic cage can easily cause the weighing value of the weighing device to be unstable. In addition, the connection between the weighing device and the metabolic cage cannot be leveled, and the weighing accuracy of the weighing device is easily affected by lateral forces. In addition, the weighing device is pressed by the gravity of the metabolic cage for a long time, and the weighing device is prone to creep. Therefore, this is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art and to provide a poultry growth metabolic cage weighing device which can adjust the balance of the metabolic cage, reduce the impact of lateral force on the weighing accuracy of the metabolic cage, and prevent the creep of the weighing device from affecting the weighing value.

[0004] The technical solution of the utility model is: a poultry growth metabolic cage weighing equipment, comprising a metabolic cage and a weighing device, the metabolic cage is hung on a frame through the weighing device, and an adjusting device for adjusting the metabolic cage is arranged between the weighing device and the metabolic cage.

[0005] The advantage of this solution is that, by setting an adjustment device to adjust the horizontality of the metabolic cage hung on the weighing device, it is avoided that the weighing device is stuck or the lateral force affects the weighing accuracy, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the weighing value of the weighing device, reducing errors, and ensuring the accuracy of the research on the metabolic energy conversion of poultry growth.

[0006] Furthermore, the adjusting device comprises a base and an adjuster, wherein the base is mounted on the weighing device, the adjuster is arranged on the metabolic cage, and a steel ball is arranged between the base and the adjuster. By arranging the steel ball, the metabolic cage can be automatically leveled, and will not be affected by the lateral force, so as to ensure that the metabolic cage is in a downward vertical state during the weighing process, so that the weighing of the weighing device is more accurate.

[0007] Furthermore, an arc-shaped groove is provided at one end of the base opposite to the regulator, thereby improving the installation of the steel ball and preventing the steel ball from being displaced and falling off.

[0008] Furthermore, the adjustment device includes an adjusting bolt and a nut, wherein the nut is arranged on the bolt, and the adjusting bolt is inverted and passed through the weighing device and abuts against the metabolic cage; the support height of the metabolic cage is adjusted by adjusting the position of the nut on the bolt, so that the metabolic cage maintains balance in a horizontal position, avoids the influence of lateral force on the metabolic cage, and ensures the weighing accuracy of the weighing device.

[0009] Furthermore, the weighing device includes a weighing sensor, a first crossbeam and a connecting rod. The weighing sensor is fixed on the fixed beam of the frame by bolts, and the lower end of the weighing sensor is connected to the first crossbeam by the connecting rod.

[0010] Furthermore, the metabolic cage is hooked on both ends of the first crossbeam through an adjusting device to ensure the balance of the metabolic cage.

[0011] Furthermore, the metabolic cage is hung on the adjusting device through the second crossbeam.

[0012] Furthermore, a Z-shaped steel plate is fixed on the top of the second crossbeam by bolts, so that the lifting device can drive the metabolic cage to rise and fall.

[0013] Furthermore, a lifting device is provided on the frame, and the lifting device is arranged on the frame through a mounting seat.

[0014] Furthermore, the lifting device includes a driving motor and a telescopic rod. The telescopic rod is driven by the driving motor. The upper end of the telescopic rod can abut against the Z-shaped steel plate to drive the lifting of the metabolic cage. When the metabolic cage is driven to rise by the lifting device, the metabolic cage is separated from the weighing device, and the weighing device is automatically reset to zero; when the lifting device descends to the lowest position, the telescopic rod is separated from the metabolic cage and is not in contact with the metabolic cage. At this time, the metabolic cage is in contact with the weighing device and the timing weighing begins. The above action is repeated at a certain interval under the control of the controller, so that the weighing device can achieve the zeroing operation, avoid the weighing device from being pressed by gravity for a long time and creeping, and then improve the weighing accuracy of the weighing device.

[0015] The utility model has the following characteristics: the balance state of the metabolic cage is effectively guaranteed by the adjusting device, which is convenient for ensuring that the gravity in the vertical direction of the metabolic cage is not affected by the lateral force, thereby improving the weighing accuracy of the weighing device; in addition, the adjusting device is combined with the lifting device, which effectively avoids the creep of the weighing device caused by being pressed by gravity for a long time, effectively guarantees the stability and accuracy of the weighing value of the weighing device, and reduces the error in the study of poultry growth metabolism.
