[0020] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an application state of a breeding cage device with static pressure balanced air supply and exhaust in one embodiment of the present utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present invention, the following will be combined with the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] like Figure 1-2 The figure shows the feasibility of the application of the static pressure balanced air supply and exhaust device 01 of the present invention. The static pressure balanced air supply and exhaust device 01 comprises a frame 04 with a mounting position formed on at least one side, an air supply main unit, a plurality of breeding cages 01 are matched on the mounting position, and each breeding cage 01 is matched with at least one air supply pipe and at least one exhaust pipe. Figure 1 The figure a shows the situation that each feeding cage box 01 is equipped with one air supply pipe 22 and one exhaust pipe 32, and the figure b shows the situation that each feeding cage box 01 is equipped with two air supply pipes 22 and two exhaust pipes 32. Of course, other combinations are possible, which are not listed here. The actual configuration depends on the specifications of the cage box 01, the feeding scale density, and the air supply and exhaust intensity. Figure 2 A static pressure balanced supply and exhaust air box is also formed on the other side of the rack 04 shown. The static pressure balanced supply and exhaust air box includes an air supply box body and an exhaust box body that are isolated from each other. The air supply box body is buffered and connected to the air supply main unit. The air supply box body is also formed with several air supply interfaces for matching the connection of the air supply pipe, and the exhaust box body is also formed with several exhaust interfaces for matching the connection of the exhaust pipe.

[0023] Furthermore, the air supply interface and / or the air exhaust interface and / or the air supply pipe and / or the air exhaust pipe are matched to each installation position on the main body one by one to be independently connected to each breeding cage box 01, and the main body is correspondingly selected from the frame 04, the air supply box body and the exhaust box body. Figure 2 In the case shown, cages 01 of specifications such as 10*4 are arranged in an array on a rack 04, and each cage 01 is Figure 1 In form a, the air supply duct and the exhaust duct are configured so that the air supply interface and the air interface are matched and set accordingly.

[0024] Furthermore, in order to save space, facilitate transportation, and improve structural stability, the exhaust box is at least partially confined inside the air supply box. Figure 2 As shown, in one case, the structural body of the exhaust box is completely confined to the cavity inside the air supply box. In this case, the structural body of the exhaust box may include a dry box 33 and a branch box 34, and the branch boxes are distributed on both sides of the dry box, and at least part of the exhaust interface is connected to the branch box. Of course, some exhaust interfaces may be connected to the dry box, but this situation is not necessary, especially when the dry box does not occupy a large side area. Furthermore, the branch boxes may be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the dry box, and the extension direction of several branch boxes to the outside of the dry box is parallel to the extension direction of one side wall of the air supply box. At this time, in order to meet the requirements of compact structure and air supply, a first interface is also formed on the other side wall of the exhaust box away from the feeding cage box 01. The first interface matches the air supply interface to connect the first connecting pipe to form an air supply channel, thereby avoiding the normal operation of air intake and exhaust.

[0025] Furthermore, as a possible solution, Figure 2 As shown, the arrangement of the branch box 34 on the main box 33 (relative to the main box) can be symmetrical or asymmetrical. Figure 2 The branch boxes 34 are symmetrically arranged on either side of the main box 33, and the direction in which the branch boxes 34 extend outward from the main box 33 is parallel to the direction in which one side wall of the air supply box extends. The branch boxes 34 are connected to the main box 33 via a docking port, which can be connected by welding or by fasteners (such as flanges) that cooperate with seals.

[0026] Furthermore, if Figure 2 As shown, when viewed along the extension direction of the branch box body 34 , the cross-sectional areas of the inner cavity of the branch box body 34 are unequal or equal.

[0027] Furthermore, near the feeding cages 01, the side walls of the air supply box and the exhaust box are parallel, aligned, or shared. Of course, the side walls can also be directly provided by the bracket, that is, the wall or plate of the hanging cage array 01. The side walls, the air supply box, and the exhaust box can overlap and share, or they can be separate or partially shared.

[0028] like Figure 1-2 The figure shows an application of a feeding system, including a rack 04, several cages 01, and several static pressure balanced air supply and exhaust cages 01 devices (the figure shows a case of a static pressure balanced air supply and exhaust cage 01 device, and more balance boxes can also be used to meet the needs of multi-faceted feeding and improve space utilization efficiency). The inner cavity of the cage 01 is matched with the air supply pipe and exhaust pipe of the static pressure balanced air supply and exhaust cage 01 device. The clean air provided by the fan enters the first inner cavity through the air supply pipe 21, and after being buffered, enters the cage 01 through the air inlet interface 21. After circulation, it enters the branch box 34 and the main box 33 through the exhaust interface 31 and is discharged through the exhaust pipe 31, thus completing a cycle, ensuring the safety of the cage 01 environment and meeting the intensive feeding requirements of the cage 01 for the animals in the cage.

[0029] Furthermore, in order to make full use of space such as corners or side wall positions, the rack 04 can be provided with a multi-faceted cage box 01 array, i.e., an associated air supply interface, exhaust interface, air supply duct, exhaust duct and other related structures. By providing a rotating shaft 03 and a driving device (such as a motor, etc.) for driving the movement of the rotating shaft, the array of the wall can be adjusted to the outside in actual operation for easy observation and management.

[0030] Furthermore, in order to arrange the above device flexibly, a traveling device 02 (such as a traveling wheel or a universal wheel, etc.) is also provided at the bottom of the frame 04 to adjust and transfer the position as needed. Of course, for safety reasons, the traveling device can also be provided with a locking mechanism to lock the traveling wheel or the universal wheel.

[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.

[0032] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described in terms of implementation methods, not every implementation method contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative method of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
