[0059] Problems in the Prior Art:
[0060] The pig drinking water monitoring equipment provided by the prior art can identify the identity of individual pigs and detect the water intake, but most of them detect and control the water intake according to the factory environmental factors. However, a pig breeding factory may have thousands or even tens of thousands of pigs. Controlling the water intake uniformly only according to the factory environmental factors will surely lead to the problems of water resource mismatch and waste, and further increase the breeding cost.
[0061] To solve the above technical problems, the following embodiments of the present application provide a pig drinking water monitoring device. By obtaining the pig identity information, determining the pig's own physical condition, configuring the corresponding water intake according to the pig's own physical condition, and respectively adjusting the water intake through the water supply pipeline 4, intelligent integrated valve 5 and drinking bowl 6, so as to meet the drinking water needs of each pig.
[0062] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 which is a schematic structural diagram of a pig drinking water monitoring device provided by an embodiment of the present application. As Figure 1 shown, the pig drinking water monitoring device includes:
[0063] a device body 1, an RFID reader 2, a main controller 3, a water supply pipeline 4, an intelligent integrated valve 5 and a drinking bowl 6; wherein,
[0064] The water supply pipeline 4 is fixed to the device body 1; the water supply pipeline 4 is fixed to the device body 1, so that the water supply pipeline 4 can be firmly fixed, and the water supply pipeline 4 can be connected in series to multiple device bodies 1, thus meeting the large-scale water supply needs of pigs.
[0065] The drinking bowl 6 is fixed to the device body 1 and is matched with the outlet position of the water supply pipeline 4.
[0066] The drinking bowl 6 is configured in the embodiment of the present application, which can provide drinking water for each pig respectively. Compared with the existing water trough setting scheme, the water intake of each pig can be controlled respectively.
[0067] The RFID reader 2 is fixed to the device body 1 and is electrically connected to the main controller 3, and is used to sense the RFID electronic tag worn by the pig and read the pig identity information to the main controller 3; the RFID reader 2 can be matched with the RFID electronic tag carried by the pig itself, so as to respectively read the pig identity information of each pig and transmit the read pig identity information to the main controller 3.
[0068] The main controller 3 is also electrically connected to the intelligent integrated valve 5. The main controller 3 is electrically connected to the intelligent integrated valve 5. In this way, after the main controller 3 reads the pig's identity information, it queries the pig's physical condition information according to the pig's identity information. The pig's physical condition information includes, for example, information such as the pig's status, age, backfat, and parity. Then, the main controller 3 determines the water volume output by the water supply pipe 4 according to the corresponding relationship between the pig's physical condition information and the water intake, thereby controlling the water supply volume through the intelligent integrated valve 5 and sending water into the drinking bowl 6.
[0069] The pig water intake monitoring device provided by the technical solution of this application includes a device body 1, an RFID reader 2, a main controller 3, a water supply pipe 4, an intelligent integrated valve 5, and a drinking bowl 6. When a pig approaches the device body 1 of the pig water intake monitoring device, the RFID reader 2 fixed on the device body 1 will sense the RFID electronic tag worn by the pig, thereby reading the pig's identity information, and then transmitting the read pig's identity information to the main controller 3. The main controller 3 determines the pig's physical condition information according to the pig's identity information, such as the pig's status, age, backfat, and parity. In this way, the water intake of the pig can be determined according to the pig's physical condition information. The main controller 3 controls the opening and closing size of the intelligent integrated valve 5 according to the water intake, and conveys drinking water to the drinking bowl 6 through the water outlet of the water supply pipe 4. Through the above method, the technical solution of this application can determine the water intake of each pig according to the specific pig information. Compared with the prior art that only controls the water intake uniformly according to the factory environment factors, it can reduce the situation of water resource misallocation and waste and reduce the pig breeding cost.
[0070] In addition, before sending water to the drinking bowl 6, there may be a certain amount of water in the drinking bowl 6. At this time, it is necessary to accurately control the water volume to be conveyed according to the remaining water volume in the drinking bowl 6; or due to problems such as the opening and closing of the intelligent integrated valve 5, the water supply pipe 4, or the pipe opening, there is a certain error in the water supply volume. At this time, if you want to accurately control the conveyed water volume, it is necessary to accurately measure the water level in the drinking bowl 6.
[0071] Specifically, as a preferred embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the above-mentioned pig water intake monitoring device further includes:
[0072] a liquid level sensor 7 fixed to the device body 1, and the liquid level sensor 7 is matched with the position of the drinking bowl 6 in the set height;
[0073] The liquid level sensor 7 is also electrically connected to the main controller 3 and is used to input the sensed drinking water volume change information of the drinking bowl 6 into the main controller 3.
[0074] In the prior art, the water outlet is usually controlled by a conventional faucet button, which easily leads to waste of water resources during the drinking process of pigs, and it is impossible to reasonably set the water output according to the state of pigs, nor can the drinking water volume of the pig group be statistically analyzed and quantified. However, in the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, the installation height of the liquid level sensor 7 is matched with the position of the drinking bowl 6, so that the liquid level sensor 7 can accurately measure the change in the drinking water volume in the drinking bowl 6, and transmit the drinking water volume information in a negative feedback manner to the main controller 3. The main controller 3 accurately adjusts the opening and closing of the intelligent integrated valve 5 to deliver an accurate amount of water to the drinking bowl 6, thereby achieving the purpose of accurately controlling the drinking water of pigs and solving the problem of a certain amount of water existing in the drinking bowl 6 or an error in water delivery in the prior art.
[0075] It should be noted that the present application can obtain the pig identity information through the RFID electronic tag, and then determine the pig physical condition information. Then, according to the pig physical condition information, the drinking water volume of the pig is determined. In this way, the corresponding functions need to be implemented by the specific main controller 3.
[0076] Specifically, referring to Figure 5 , as a preferred embodiment, in the above-mentioned pig drinking water monitoring device, the main controller 3 includes:
[0077] A pig identity information receiver 301, which is used to receive the pig identity information read by the RFID reader 2;
[0078] A pig physical condition information memory 302, which is used to store the physical condition information of pigs;
[0079] A processing chip 303 electrically connected to the pig information receiver and the pig physical condition information memory 302 respectively, which is used to match the pig identity information and the physical condition information of the corresponding pig, and calculate the drinking water volume information according to the physical condition information;
[0080] A signal transmitter 304 electrically connected to the processing chip 303, which is used to generate an outlet control signal corresponding to the drinking water volume information and send it to the intelligent integrated valve 5.
[0081] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, the main controller 3 includes a pig identity information receiver 301, a pig physical condition information memory 302, a processing chip 303, and a signal transmitter 304; the pig identity information receiver 301 is communicatively connected to the RFID reader 2, so that it can receive the pig identity information read by the RFID reader 2. Then, the processing chip 303 obtains the pig's physical condition information from the pig physical condition information memory 302 according to the pig identity information, calculates the water intake information required by the pig according to the physical condition information, and finally generates a water outlet control signal through the signal transmitter 304 and sends it to the intelligent integrated valve 5, and controls the water volume delivered to the drinking bowl 6 by controlling the opening of the intelligent integrated valve 5. In summary, compared with the existing technical solution for detecting and controlling the water intake according to the factory environmental factors, the above method can detect the pig identity information of each pig respectively, control the water intake according to the physical condition information of each pig, thereby reducing the mismatch and waste of water resources and reducing the pig breeding cost.
[0082] In addition, in order to summarize the pig water intake information of each farm and facilitate the remote monitoring of the pig water intake situation, as a preferred embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the above pig water intake monitoring device further includes:
[0083] A cloud server 8 electrically connected to the main controller 3, which is used to receive the pig identity information and water intake information uploaded by the main controller 3.
[0084] The cloud server 8 is further used to generate water intake adjustment information according to the pig identity information and water intake information, and send it to the main controller 3.
[0085] In the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, by setting a cloud server 8 electrically connected to the main controller 3, the cloud server 8 can receive the pig identity information and water intake information uploaded by the main controller 3. In this way, the cloud server 8 can record each pig in the farm, determine the identity characteristics of each pig; in addition, the cloud server 8 can also generate water intake adjustment information according to the pig identity information and water intake information, and send it to the main controller 3, so as to adjust the water intake of the pigs and precisely control the pig water intake. Compared with the information summary and control of the local server, the solution of the cloud server 8 can realize the remote monitoring and information summary of the water intake of all pigs in multiple farms, so as to realize large-scale distributed pig water intake control.
[0086] In addition, in order to more effectively control the water intake according to the pig's physical condition information, it is necessary to monitor the factory environment and the pig's physical condition in real time, so it is necessary to specifically set corresponding sensors. Specifically, as Figure 3 shown, as a preferred embodiment, the above pig water intake monitoring device further includes:
[0087] An environmental sensor 9 and a pig physical condition sensor 10 that are fixed to the equipment body 1 and are electrically connected to the main controller 3 respectively. Among them,
[0088] The environmental sensor 9 is used to obtain the environmental information of the environment around the equipment body 1 and upload it to the main controller 3;
[0089] The pig physical condition sensor 10 is used to obtain the physical condition information of the pigs and upload it to the main controller 3.
[0090] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, by setting the environmental sensor 9 and the pig physical condition sensor 10 that are electrically connected to the main controller 3, respectively obtain the environmental information of the environment around the equipment body 1 and the physical condition information of the pigs, and upload them to the main controller 3, so that the main controller 3 can conveniently monitor the surrounding environmental information and the physical condition information of the pigs in real time, and accurately control the drinking water volume of each pig according to the above environmental information and the physical condition information of the pigs, reducing the mismatch and waste of water resources.
[0091] In addition, there are a large number of pigs in the farm, and the environments of the pig houses where different pigs are located are different. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out environmental control for the pig houses, including humidity control, air circulation control, and temperature control, etc. Specifically, as a preferred embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the above-mentioned pig drinking water monitoring device further includes an environmental regulator 11 that is electrically connected to the main controller 3. The environmental regulator 11 includes:
[0092] A dehumidifier 1101 that is fixed to the equipment body 1 and is electrically connected to the main controller 3;
[0093] An exhaust fan 1102 that is fixed to the equipment body 1 and is electrically connected to the main controller 3;
[0094] And an electric heater 1103 that is fixed to the equipment body 1 and is electrically connected to the main controller 3.
[0095] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, by setting the dehumidifier 1101, the exhaust fan 1102, and the electric heater 1103 that are electrically connected to the main controller 3 respectively, can dehumidify, exhaust air, and heat the pig house respectively, so as to meet the humidity, air circulation, and temperature control requirements of the pig house, and provide a comfortable and stable environment for pig breeding.
[0096] In addition, since there are hundreds or thousands of pigs in the farm, once a pig is infected with a disease, it is easy to cause the spread of a large-scale plague in the farm. To avoid this situation, as a preferred embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the pig physical condition sensor 10 in the above-mentioned pig drinking water monitoring device includes:
[0097] The side plate fixed to the equipment body 1, and the infrared sensor 1001 arranged at one end of the side plate close to the inlet and outlet;
[0098] The thermometer 1002 fixed to the side plate of the equipment body 1 and arranged at one end of the side plate close to the inlet and outlet, and the thermometer 1002 is also electrically connected to the main controller 3. Among them,
[0099] The thermometer 1002 is used to measure the body temperature value of the pig when the infrared sensor 1001 senses that the pig enters the inlet and outlet, and upload it to the main controller 3.
[0100] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, through the infrared sensor 1001 fixed at one end of the side plate of the equipment body 1 close to the inlet and outlet, senses the position of the pig when the pig enters the equipment, and then starts the thermometer 1002 to measure the temperature of the pig. Specifically, the position of the thermometer 1002 can be matched with the drinking bowl 6, so that when the pig drinks water, it contacts the thermometer 1002. The thermometer 1002 uploads the body temperature value of the pig to the main controller 3 as part of the physical condition information of the pig, so as to meet the body temperature measurement requirements of the pig, monitor the health status of the pig in real time, and avoid the large-scale spread of the plague.
[0101] In addition, when the pig drinks water, if the water in the drinking bowl 6 is not cleaned up, it is easy to cause water pollution, and it is easy to spread diseases when the pig drinks water next time, affecting the health of the pig. To solve this problem, as a preferred embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the above-mentioned pig drinking water volume monitoring device further includes:
[0102] The drainage pipe 12 communicated with the drinking bowl 6, and a drain valve 13 is fixed at the connection of the drainage pipe 12 and the drinking bowl 6;
[0103] The drain valve 13 is also electrically connected to the liquid level sensor 7 and the main controller 3.
[0104] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, by setting the drainage pipe 12 to communicate with the drinking bowl 6 and setting the drain valve 13 at the connection of the drainage pipe 12 and the drinking bowl 6, the drain valve 13 can be controlled to open by the main controller 3 when the pig finishes drinking water. Specifically, when the liquid level sensor 7 senses the decrease in the water volume in the drinking bowl 6 in real time, when it is monitored that the water volume does not change for a period of time after the decrease, for example, it does not change for 30m, it is determined that the pig has finished drinking water. At this time, the main controller 3 controls the drain valve 13 to open to drain all the water in the drinking bowl 6. Through the above method, the water in the drinking bowl 6 can be emptied, reducing the disease transmission caused by water pollution.
[0105] In addition, the monitoring device of the embodiment of the present application can realize multiple pigs drinking water side by side, so that only one drinking water volume monitoring device can realize the drinking water supply of multiple pigs.
[0106] Specifically, as a preferred embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in the above pig drinking water monitoring device, the device body 1 includes:
[0107] A plurality of compartments 101 arranged side by side, where
[0108] A water supply pipe 4, an intelligent integrated valve 5 and a drinking bowl 6 are fixed to each compartment 101;
[0109] Fence 102 is provided on both sides of each compartment 101, and an RFID reader 2 is fixed to the fence 102.
[0110] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application, by arranging a plurality of compartments 101 side by side, each compartment 101 includes a water supply pipe 4, an intelligent integrated valve 5 and a drinking bowl 6, so that the compartments 101 can be used to separate pigs and realize the side-by-side drinking of multiple pigs. In addition, fence 102 is provided on both sides of each compartment 101, so that the fence 102 can isolate adjacent pigs and prevent pigs from robbing water. In addition, an RFID reader 2 is fixed to the fence 102, so that the identity of pigs can be recognized in each compartment 101.
[0111] In addition, the living environment of pigs in the farm may gradually deteriorate over time. In order to maintain the environmental hygiene of the farm, it is necessary to regularly clean the farm. Specifically, as a preferred embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the pig drinking water monitoring device provided by the embodiment of the present application further includes, in addition to the above structural modules:
[0112] A sewage outlet 14 communicating with the base 103 of the device body 1;
[0113] A flushing pipe 15 fixed to the base 103 of the device body 1 and matching the position of the sewage outlet 14.
[0114] A sewage outlet 14 is communicated on the base 103 of the device body 1. The sewage outlet 14 can discharge the excrement of pigs in the pig drinking water monitoring device under the base 103 and discharge it through the sewage outlet 14. In addition, a flushing pipe 15 is provided, which can flush the excrement at the sewage outlet 14 into a designated sewage pipe and septic tank. In addition, the flushing pipe 15 can be communicated with the above water supply pipe 4.
[0115] In summary, the technical solution provided by the above embodiment of the present application, the pig drinking water monitoring device is composed of intelligent components such as the main controller 3, the intelligent integrated valve 5, the liquid level sensor 7, the drinking water bowl 6, and the RFID reader 2. When the pig wearing the RFID electronic tag enters the drinking water area, the RFID reader 2 can sense the pig's identity information, and control the water supply pipe 4 to drain water through the intelligent integrated valve 5 to meet the pig's drinking water needs. The liquid level sensor 7 can detect and control the water level in the drinking water bowl 6 in real time to achieve free drinking without waste. Through drinking water control and monitoring, the system can record the drinking water and drinking trend analysis of individuals or groups each time, every day, and throughout the whole process (from entering the pen to leaving the pen).
[0116] The technical solution provided by the above-mentioned embodiment of the present application is to read the data of the RFID electronic tag of the pig through the RFID reader 2, upload it to the main controller 3, and the main controller 3 controls the intelligent integrated valve 5 to discharge water. The discharge amount is controlled according to the pig information (including pig status, age, back fat and parity), which can effectively carry out scientific breeding of pigs. By collecting and recording the amount of water drunk by each pig each time, and conducting quantitative analysis on the amount of water drunk, the problem of mismatch and waste of water resources can be reduced. In addition, the amount of water drunk by the pigs is set in a targeted manner according to the information entered by the electronic ear tag, which can reduce the waste of water resources. Then, the drinking water situation of the pigs is collected by the sensor for data analysis, and a drinking water amount report for a single pig / pig group is generated, so that the problem of drinking water for the pigs can be discovered in time.
[0117] After actual measurement, it was found that there was a large waste of water resources before the improvement, and the pigs had poor drinking water conditions. After the improvement, water resources were saved by 50% per month, and the improvement effect was obvious.
[0118] The above description is only an exemplary embodiment of the present application and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present application specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present application, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
