Thus, the features defined with "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "a plurality" means two or more.
[0019] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it may be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it may be the internal connection of two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood through specific situations.
[0020] Based on the experimental results, the color of light that ducks like to approach may vary depending on the environment, behavioral needs and individual differences; in general, ducks may prefer to approach natural light or soft, warmer light, which can provide comfort and meet their behavioral and physiological needs.
[0021] Here are some light colors that may attract ducks:
[0022] Natural light: Ducks generally like to be close to natural light, especially sunlight during the day. Natural light can provide ducks with a good visual environment and a natural circadian rhythm, which helps them stay active and healthy.
[0023] Warm-toned light: Warm-toned light, such as yellow or orange, may give ducks a sense of comfort and warmth. This light can create a cozy atmosphere that helps ducks relax and calm down.
[0024] Red Light: A soft red light, when used at night, can keep ducks calm and stable, helping them feel safe while resting or sleeping at night.
[0025] Blue light: Moderate blue light may make ducks calmer and more relaxed, reducing anxiety and stress reactions. However, excessive blue light may cause discomfort to ducks, so the brightness of the light needs to be properly controlled.
[0026] In general, ducks like to be close to soft and comfortable light, which can provide a good visual environment and comfort, and help ducks relax and be quiet. When they are released from the market, if light stimulation is used to make the ducks naturally approach the side where they are caught, it can reduce the stress of herding ducks, thereby effectively reducing the death and injury of ducks caught, dermatitis caused by trampling, and road casualties.
[0027] Example 1
[0028] See also Figures 1 to 2 , the utility model provides a lighting control device for driving ducks, comprising a control module 1 and a lighting module 2, wherein the control module 1 is connected to the lighting module 2;
[0029] The control module 1 includes an air switch 5, a 12V power supply 4 and a control unit 3. The air switch 5 is used to control the lighting module 2 to be connected or disconnected;
[0030] The 12V power supply 4 is connected to the control unit 3, and the control unit 3 is connected to the lighting module 2 via a signal line.
[0031] Through the control unit 3, precise color control can be carried out for different lamps in the lighting module 2, enabling free switching between multiple colors to meet the requirements of different scenarios. For example, in a specific breeding environment, specific colors can be selected according to the behavioral characteristics of ducks and different breeding stages to guide the movement direction of ducks. At the same time, the control unit 3 can also flexibly adjust the brightness of the lamps. In the night or dim environment, the brightness can be adjusted according to the actual situation to ensure sufficient lighting effect while avoiding scaring the ducks with overly bright lights.
[0032] The air switch 5 is connected to the lighting module 2 through the power cord 7.
[0033] The lighting module 2 includes a number of distribution boxes connected to the power cord 7 and the signal line 6. Two groups of wires are set at the outlet end of each distribution box, and a number of lamps 8 are connected in series on each group of wires.
[0034] A number of lamps 8 located at the duck outlet end of the duck house are LED lamps with a wavelength of 650 - 670nm that can switch between red light and natural light and can adjust the brightness.
[0035] According to the actual length of the duck house, determine the installation quantity of the lamps 8. One row or two rows of lamps can be installed corresponding to each row of the duck house to ensure uniform and sufficient light in the entire duck house.
[0036] If the width of the duck house is relatively narrow, one row of lamps can meet the lighting requirements. At this time, the lamps can be evenly distributed in the central position at the top of the duck house, so that the light can shine downward to cover all corners of the duck house.
[0037] When the width of the duck house is relatively wide, installing two rows of lamps can better ensure the uniformity of lighting. One row of lamps can be installed on both sides of the top of the duck house respectively, and the installation angle of the lamps can be adjusted according to the actual situation so that the light can cross-illuminate to avoid lighting dead corners.
[0038] The remaining number of lamps 8 are LED blue lamps with a wavelength of 460 - 480nm; the lighting intensity requirement for all lamps is 18 lux.
[0039] The distance between two adjacent lamps 8 is 2 - 3m.
[0040] When this utility model is in use, when catching ducks at night, turn on the blue lamps 2 hours before catching ducks to make the ducks' vision weaker and quieter. 1 hour before catching ducks, turn down the blue light and turn on the natural light on the side where the ducks are caught. At this time, the ducks will naturally move from under the blue light to the side of the natural light. 30 minutes before catching ducks, switch the natural light to soft red light to keep the ducks quiet and stable.
[0041] When catching ducks during the day, after natural light shines into the shed in the morning, turn off the red light and switch to white light, and keep the blue light on continuously and maintain a relatively dim light intensity.
[0042] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
