[0002] In the process of large-scale breeding, quail needs to be fed meticulously, such as the combination of diet structure and nutrition, to ensure that the quail takes in balanced nutrition, and at the same time, the temperature and humidity in the quail house should be controlled, so that the quail can grow healthily. In addition, the feces of the quail also need to be cleaned in time, otherwise it is very easy to breed bacteria and affect the health of the quail; the traditional way to clean quail feces is to place a pull-out collection trough under the quail cage, and the feces excreted by the quail falls into the collection trough through the mesh on the quail cage. The breeding management personnel regularly pull out the collection trough and clean the feces collected inside to the feces recovery vehicle for centralized treatment; however, for large-scale quail breeding, such feces cleaning workload is very large, and the work intensity of breeding management personnel is relatively high. The farm has to invest more breeding management personnel to clean the feces in time to avoid untimely feces cleaning, which leads to bacterial growth and corruption and produces unpleasant odors, affecting the health of the quail and the working environment of the breeding management personnel.

[0022] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment. Obviously, the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the given embodiments, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", etc. indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0024] In the description of this application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Example

[0025] See Figure 1-5 As shown, the present application provides an automatic cleaning device for quail feces, including a quail cage frame 10, which includes a plurality of quail cages 11 arranged vertically. The quail cages 11 are made of a steel wire mesh with sufficient strength and round steel, square tube or other profiles combined and welded, which will not be repeated here. It also includes a cleaning device 20, which includes a plurality of first conveying components 21 and a second conveying component 22. The first conveying component 21 includes a conveyor belt 211, a drive shaft 212, a reinforced solid shaft 2121 and a drive motor 213. The drive motor 213 can be preferably a reduction motor with a reduction box, and the reinforced solid shaft 2121 is built in the drive shaft 212. The drive shaft 212 is made of rubber material to increase the friction with the conveyor belt 211 to ensure reliable operation of the conveyor belt; the drive motor 213 and the reinforced solid shaft 2121 are connected by a coupling or other connection methods in the prior art to transmit torque; similarly, the second conveying component 22 includes a second conveyor belt 221, a drive roller 222 and a second drive motor 223, and the drive roller 222 is driven to rotate by the second drive motor 223, thereby driving the second conveyor belt 222 to operate for conveying; the specific structure and working principle of the first conveying component and the second conveying component are the same as those of the existing belt conveyor, and the present application only selects its specifications and dimensions adaptively to apply to the present application; no further description is given here. There is a gap under each quail cage 11, and the first conveying assembly 21 is located in the gap; the working plane level of the second conveying assembly 22 is lower than the outlet height of the first conveying assembly 21 under the quail cage 11 at the bottom, and is located under each first conveying assembly 21. The quail feces sent out from the outlet end of each first conveying assembly 21 slides onto the second conveying assembly 22, and the second conveying assembly 22 transports the quail feces to a centralized treatment place. For details, see Figure 2-3 As shown, a slide plate 23 is provided below the outlet end of each first conveying assembly 21 ( Figure 2There are three quail cages in the figure, which correspond to three first conveying assemblies, and respectively correspond to the first slide 23a, the second slide 23b and the third slide 23c. The inlet end of the slide 23 is located below the outlet end of the first conveying assembly 21, and the outlet end is adjacent to the second conveying assembly 22 and is located directly above the second conveying assembly 22. Each slide is staggered in the vertical direction. As a result, the quail feces will fall onto the conveyor belt of the first conveying assembly through the mesh at the bottom of the quail cage. As the first conveying assembly runs, the conveyor belt drives the quail feces to move toward its outlet end, and slides from its outlet end onto the conveyor belt of the second conveying assembly 22 through the inclined slide 23.

[0026] Considering that part of the quail feces may adhere to the conveyor belt of the first conveyor assembly, resulting in incomplete cleaning of the quail feces. The present embodiment preferably further includes a scraper 24, which is located at the outlet end of the first conveyor assembly 21 and has a width not less than the width of the first conveyor assembly 21; the first conveyor assembly 21 is a belt conveyor, and the scraper 24 maintains contact with the surface of the conveyor belt of the first conveyor assembly 21 at the rotating position, see Figure 4-5 As shown. In order to facilitate the scraping of quail feces, the scraper 24 is kept at a tangent angle with the conveyor belt 211 from the obliquely lower part of the rotating position. In this way, since the conveyor belt is in the rotating position, that is, in contact with the drive shaft 212, there is a wrap angle problem. At this time, the conveyor belt is bent and deformed, and the quail feces adhering to the conveyor belt will be peeled off to a certain extent. Then, with the scraper, the adhering quail feces can be better removed. In order to enable the scraper to maintain contact with the conveyor belt and compensate for the wear of the scraper, the present embodiment preferably also includes a retaining assembly, and the scraper 24 is provided with an axial hole at one end 24a away from the contact end 24b with the conveyor belt; a support shaft 241 is passed through the axial hole and both ends are connected to the bracket 111 extending from the quail cage 11; the retaining assembly continuously provides a force to the scraper 24, and the force causes the scraper 24 to rotate toward the conveyor belt. For details, see Figure 4 As shown, the holding assembly includes a tension spring 242 and a fixed shaft 243, the fixed shaft 243 is fixed on the bracket 111 by welding, and a tension spring action point is set on the scraper 24 (for example, a through hole is provided on the scraper, and one end of the tension spring 242 can be hooked), one end of the tension spring 242 hooks the fixed shaft 243, and the other end hooks the tension spring action point, thereby the scraper 24 can be kept pulled toward the conveyor belt so that the two are kept in contact. Of course, it should be noted that the scraper can be made of nylon material, and after it is worn, the support shaft 241 is disassembled and replaced. Of course, considering the energy consumption and the operating loss of the machine, the first conveying assembly 21 and the second conveying assembly 22 are preferably operated intermittently in this embodiment, that is, the first conveying assembly 21 and the second conveying assembly 22 will be started at each interval of a set time, so as to achieve regular cleaning, and also reduce energy consumption and wear.

[0027] In addition, in order to facilitate the collection of eggs laid by quails during the breeding process, in this embodiment, the outlet end of the first conveying assembly 21 is preferably located at the back of the quail cage 11; the bottom 13 of the quail cage 11 is inclined forward and extends a set length, a blocking cage 12 is provided on the extension section, and the quail cage 11 is provided with a channel 112 on the side where the extension section is located, so that the quail eggs roll into the blocking cage 12 through the channel 112. Of course, it should be noted that the bottom surface of the quail cage 11 is preferably composed of a plurality of round steels arranged side by side with sufficient support strength, the axis of the round steel is parallel to the inclination direction of the bottom surface of the quail cage, and the gap between them is not greater than the smallest quail egg size, so that the produced quail eggs can roll into the blocking cage 12 along the bottom of the quail cage, and the blocking cage 12 is arranged in the front, which is also convenient for workers to pick up. Example

[0028] The difference from the first embodiment is that no slide plate 23 is provided between the outlet of the first conveying assembly 21 and the second conveying assembly 22. Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the outlet end of each first conveying assembly 21 from bottom to top sequentially extends outward by a set length relative to the outlet end of the first conveying assembly 21 below and adjacent thereto; so that the quail feces delivered by the outlet end of each first conveying assembly 21 directly fall on the second conveying assembly 22. Although the slide plate can make most of the feces slide onto the second conveying assembly, it is inevitable that a part of the quail feces will still adhere to the slide plate 23 and cannot be completely cleaned; then, by adopting the structure of this embodiment, the quail feces can completely and directly fall on the second conveying assembly 22, thereby avoiding the problem of adhesion. Example

[0029] like Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, a door 14 is provided on the front of the quail cage, one end of the door is movably mounted with the quail wheel through a hinge 141, and the other end is provided with a door lock 142 (of course, a latch structure can also be used), and the door 14 is locked by the door lock 142 to restrict the opening of the door. The arrangement of the door 14 facilitates the quails to enter and exit the quail cage.

[0030] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
