Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of chicken cages, in particular to a chicken cage door positioning structure. Background Art

[0002] Chicken cages, as a vital basic equipment in the field of poultry farming, are artificial habitats and confined spaces created specifically for chickens. They are made of various materials such as metal wire, wood and plastic through weaving, splicing and assembly processes. They have rich shapes, and common ones include regular geometric shapes such as rectangular prisms and cubes. They range from simple and rustic farmyard self-use models, which only use thick iron wire to bend out of the frame and surround it with wire mesh to prevent chickens from escaping, to large-scale chicken farms equipped with high-tech control devices. Professional chicken house "units" with large-scale and standardized characteristics have a wide range of sizes, that is, color numbers. In large chicken farms, every chicken house is equipped with a chicken cage door.

[0003] In order to increase the closedness of the chicken house, most of the chicken cage doors are located inside the chicken house and flipped inward. When opening, the breeder only needs to flip the chicken cage door inward by hand to complete daily work, which effectively avoids the problem of chickens rushing out.

[0004] However, when opening the chicken cage door, due to the simple structure of the chicken cage door and the lack of a positioning structure, the breeder needs to use his hands to hold the chicken cage door to position it during the opening process, or needs to install a complex positioning structure to position the flipped chicken cage door. This is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive and increases the manufacturing cost of the chicken cage door and the chicken house, but also reduces the opening and closing effect of the chicken cage door, resulting in certain limitations in the process of opening the chicken cage door.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need for a chicken cage door with a simple structure that is convenient for positioning the chicken cage door when flipping the chicken cage door to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the above situation, in order to overcome the defects of the prior art, the utility model provides a chicken cage door positioning structure. Through the arc-shaped piece, the cage door can be directly flipped 90 degrees and then positioned by using the elastic deformation restoring force, so that the cage door is directly positioned on the top of the chicken cage. The restoring force of the arc-shaped piece will counteract the movement trend of the chicken cage door due to gravity or other small interference forces. In addition, the friction between the chicken cage and the cage door can make the cage door directly positioned.

[0007] A chicken cage door positioning structure includes a chicken cage, wherein two channel steels are fixedly connected to the front of the chicken cage, a first support rod and a second support rod are commonly clamped inside the two channel steels, a cage door is provided inside the chicken cage, the outer surface of the cage door and the outer surface of the first support rod are jointly rotatably connected to two arc-shaped pieces, the outer surface of each arc-shaped piece is in contact with the outer surface of the second support rod, and an auxiliary positioning unit is provided on the outside of the cage door.

[0008] Preferably, the auxiliary positioning unit includes a bidirectional hook, and the inner portion of one end of the bidirectional hook is engaged with the outer surface of the second support rod.

[0009] Preferably, two blocking bars are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the cage door, and the outer surface of each blocking bar is in contact with the outer surface of the chicken cage.

[0010] Preferably, a first magnetic plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the chicken cage, and two second magnetic plates are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the cage door.

[0011] Preferably, the front side of each second magnetic plate is fixedly connected to a third magnetic plate, the side surfaces of the two channel steels close to each other are fixedly connected to a blocking steel sheet, and the outer surface of each third magnetic plate is snap-fitted to the inside of the blocking steel sheet.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:

[0013] (1) In this solution, the cage door can be directly flipped 90 degrees by the arc-shaped piece and then positioned by the elastic deformation restoring force, so that the cage door is directly positioned on the top of the chicken cage. When the chicken cage door is flipped into place, the restoring force of the arc-shaped piece will counteract the movement trend of the chicken cage door due to gravity or other small interference forces. In addition, the friction between the chicken cage and the cage door can make the cage door directly positioned. Not only is the structure relatively simple, saving manufacturing costs, but it is also relatively time-saving and labor-saving, and improves the opening and closing effect of the chicken cage door;

[0014] (2) In this solution, the two-way hook, the blocking bar, the first magnetic plate, the second magnetic plate, the third magnetic plate and the blocking steel sheet can effectively assist the cage door in positioning, further ensure the positioning effect between the cage door and the chicken coop, and prevent the cage door from closing accidentally.

[0022] The above and other technical contents, features and effects of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the attached Figures 1 to 6 It can be clearly presented in the detailed description of the embodiments that the structural contents mentioned in the following embodiments are all referenced to the drawings in the specification.

[0023] Example 1: This embodiment provides a chicken cage door positioning structure, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes a chicken cage 1, two channel steels 2 are fixedly connected to the front of the chicken cage 1, and the insides of the two channel steels 2 are jointly clamped with a first support rod 8 and a second support rod 9. A cage door 3 is provided inside the chicken cage 1, and the outer surface of the cage door 3 and the outer surface of the first support rod 8 are jointly rotatably connected to two arc-shaped pieces 7, and the outer surface of each arc-shaped piece 7 is in contact with the outer surface of the second support rod 9. An auxiliary positioning unit is provided on the outside of the cage door 3;

[0024] When using the chicken cage door, flip the cage door 3 upward, and the cage door 3 drives the curved piece 7 to flip ninety degrees. During the flipping process, the curved piece 7 rotates around the first support rod 8 and passes through the limit of the second support rod 9, generating elastic deformation recovery force to position the cage door 3 at the top of the chicken cage 1. After the cage door 3 is flipped into place, the recovery force of the curved piece 7 will counteract the movement trend of the cage door 3 due to gravity or other small interference forces, just like a bent spring, it will provide a force to maintain the position of the cage door 3 after flipping, thereby achieving positioning. In addition, the friction between the chicken cage 1 and the cage door 3 can make the cage door 3 directly fixed at the top position of the chicken cage 1.

[0025] Example 2, based on Example 1, the improvement of this example is that Figure 4 As shown, the auxiliary positioning unit includes a two-way hook 12, and the inner portion of one end of the two-way hook 12 is engaged with the outer surface of the second support rod 9;

[0026] When using the chicken cage door, before opening the cage door 3, directly open the two-way hook 12 to disengage the two-way hook 12 from the second support rod 9, and then flip the cage door 3 upward with force. After the cage door 3 is closed, flip the two-way hook 12 so that its other end is clamped on the surface of the second support rod 9 to enhance the positioning effect of the cage door 3.

[0027] Example 3, based on Example 2, the improvement of this example is that Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, two blocking bars 10 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the cage door 3, and the outer surface of each blocking bar 10 is in contact with the outer surface of the chicken cage 1;

[0028] When the cage door is in use, after the cage door 3 is flipped down, the blocking bar 10 acts on the surface of the chicken cage 1 to limit the cage door 3 and prevent the cage door 3 from flipping out.

[0029] Example 4, based on Example 3, the improvement of this example is that Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the outer surface of the chicken cage 1 is fixedly connected to a first magnetic plate 5, and the outer surface of the cage door 3 is fixedly connected to two second magnetic plates 11;

[0030] When the cage door is in use, after the cage door 3 is flipped ninety degrees, the second magnetic plate 11 is directly adsorbed on the first magnetic plate 5, and the auxiliary curved piece 7 positions the cage door 3. When the cage door 3 is pulled down and closed, the tension on the cage door 3 directly causes the second magnetic plate 11 to separate from the first magnetic plate 5, so that it can be reset, canceling the positioning effect of the cage door 3.

[0031] Example 5, based on Example 4, the improvement of this example is that Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the front surface of each second magnetic plate 11 is fixedly connected to the third magnetic plate 6, and the side surfaces of the two channel steels 2 close to each other are fixedly connected to the blocking steel sheet 4, and the outer surface of each third magnetic plate 6 is snap-fitted to the inner portion of the blocking steel sheet 4;

[0032] When the chicken cage door is in use, the cage door 3 drives the third magnetic plate 6 to be clamped inside the blocking steel sheet 4 through the second magnetic plate 11, and further limits the blocking bar 10 through the blocking steel sheet 4. The magnetic force generated by the third magnetic plate 6 is directly adsorbed with the surface of the blocking steel sheet 4, thereby increasing the closing effect of the cage door 3, preventing the cage door 3 from shaking, and ensuring its overall stability.

[0033] Working principle: When in use, directly open the two-way hook 12 to disengage the two-way hook 12 from the second support rod 9, and then forcefully flip the cage door 3 upward. The cage door 3 drives the curved piece 7 to flip ninety degrees. During the flipping process, the curved piece 7 rotates around the first support rod 8 and passes through the limit of the second support rod 9, generating elastic deformation recovery force to position the cage door 3 at the top of the chicken cage 1. After the cage door 3 is flipped into place, the recovery force of the curved piece 7 will counteract the movement trend of the cage door 3 due to gravity or other small interference forces, just like a bent spring, it will provide a force to keep the cage door 3 in its position after flipping, thereby achieving positioning. In addition, the friction between the chicken cage 1 and the cage door 3 can make the cage door 3 directly fixed at the top position of the chicken cage 1. At this time, the cage door 3 is directly adsorbed on the first magnetic plate 5 through the second magnetic plate 11, assisting the curved piece 7 to position the cage door 3. Then, in order to increase the stability of the cage door 7, the two-way hook 12 can be rotated to make it flip, and one end of the two-way hook 12 is hooked at the top position of the chicken cage 1, effectively preventing the chicken cage 1 from vibrating. The cage door 3 is unstable and falls off. When the cage door 3 needs to be lowered, the two-way hook 12 is directly flipped over to separate it from the chicken cage 1. Then, the cage door 3 is flipped down with force. The cage door 3 is subjected to tension to directly separate the second magnetic plate 11 from the first magnetic plate 5, and the elastic deformation recovery force on the arc-shaped piece 7 is deformed by the tension and can be reset, thereby canceling the positioning effect of the cage door 3. After the cage door 3 is flipped down, the blocking bar 10 acts on the surface of the chicken cage 1 to limit the cage door 3 to prevent the cage door 3 from flipping out. The other end of the cage door 3 is flipped so that it is clamped on the surface of the second support rod 9, thereby increasing the positioning effect of the cage door 3. The cage door 3 drives the third magnetic plate 6 to be clamped inside the blocking steel sheet 4 through the second magnetic plate 11, and further limits the blocking bar 10 through the blocking steel sheet 4. The magnetic force generated by the third magnetic plate 6 is directly adsorbed on the surface of the blocking steel sheet 4, thereby increasing the closing effect of the cage door 3, preventing the cage door 3 from shaking, ensuring its overall stability, effectively simplifying the positioning structure, saving a certain amount of manufacturing cost, and increasing the opening and closing effect of the cage door 3.

[0034] The above description is only for the purpose of illustrating the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various variations that conform to the concept of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
