Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of chicken weighing, and in particular to an intelligent chicken weight measuring device. Background Technology

[0002] Chicken weight is an important indicator of growth, development, and production performance. Regularly weighing chickens and comparing their weight to a standard weight helps farmers identify growth abnormalities promptly and adjust feeding and management practices to ensure healthy growth. Furthermore, a reasonable weight standard provides a scientific basis for chicken selection and breeding, leading to the development of superior breeds that better meet market demands.

[0003] Current weighing methods typically involve using electronic scales to weigh each chicken individually and record its weight. However, once the chickens are on the scale, they often struggle to settle quickly, causing the display to fluctuate and making it difficult to accurately record their weight. Furthermore, the scale's display is usually located below the chicken-holding mechanism, requiring the operator to bend down and manually record the weight after each weighing – a time-consuming and laborious process that can lead to errors due to manual recording. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an intelligent chicken weight measuring device. During the weighing process, the chicken is hung upside down, with its claws attached to a fixing device. Once upside down, the chicken no longer struggles, facilitating accurate weighing. The weighing device is located above the chicken fixing device, eliminating the need for the operator to bend down. The device outputs the weighing data from each weighing to an external device, reducing the workload of simultaneous weighing and data recording or the need for two people to operate the device. It saves time and effort, has a simple structure, improves weighing speed, ensures data accuracy, and achieves intelligent weighing.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following solution:

[0006] This utility model provides an intelligent chicken weight measuring device, including a weighing device and a fixing device. The measuring end of the weighing device is connected to the fixing device, and the display end of the weighing device is located above the fixing device. The fixing device includes a column, a first inclined column, and a second inclined column. The first inclined column and the second inclined column are identical in shape and symmetrically fixed to the column. The angle between the first inclined column or the second inclined column and the column is 18-22 degrees. The first inclined column and the column form a first gripping jaw, and the second inclined column and the column form a second gripping jaw. The weighing device is equipped with a built-in sensor and a program processing unit. The built-in sensor is connected to the program processing unit. The built-in sensor is used to measure the weight of the chicken and generate a data signal. The program processing unit processes the data signal and transmits it to an external device.

[0007] Preferably, the lower ends of the first inclined column and the second inclined column are connected to the upright column after being rounded, and the upper ends of the first inclined column and the second inclined column are both curved downwards.

[0008] Preferably, the column is hollow and has an outer diameter of 14mm-16mm.

[0009] Preferably, the cross-section of the first inclined column or the second inclined column is circular, and the diameter is 5m-7mm.

[0010] Preferably, the lower end of the column is fixedly connected to the base, the display end of the weighing device is connected to the upper end of the column, the measuring end of the weighing device is connected to the base, and the diameter of the base is 28cm-32cm.

[0011] Preferably, the height from the connection point of the first or second inclined column to the top of the column is 18cm-22cm, and the height from the connection point of the first or second inclined column to the bottom of the column is 78cm-82cm.

[0012] Preferably, the weighing device is connected to a fixed bracket, and the fixed bracket is provided with a mounting groove for connecting to a protrusion on the external wall.

[0013] Preferably, the measuring end of the weighing device is connected to a spring, and the spring is detachably connected to the upper end of the column.

[0014] Preferably, the measuring end of the weighing device is connected to a hook, and the upper end of the column is provided with a hanging ring, which can be hooked onto the hanging ring.

[0015] Preferably, the upper end of the weighing device is connected to a carrying ring.

[0016] The present invention achieves the following beneficial technical effects compared to the prior art:

[0017] 1. The intelligent chicken weight measuring device provided by this utility model allows the chicken to be weighed head down, in an inverted position, preventing it from struggling and quickly calming down. The chicken's two claws are then hooked into the first and second gripper openings respectively for easy weighing. Since the weighing device is located above the column, there is no need to look down to check the weighing data. The weighing device is equipped with a built-in sensor and a program processing unit. The built-in sensor measures the weight of the chicken and generates a data signal, which is then processed and transmitted to an external device. The built-in sensor detects the weight on the column and converts it into an electrical signal. The program processing unit reads this electrical signal, converts it into a digital signal, and transmits it to an external device, such as a mobile phone or computer, via a communication interface (e.g., Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, USB), avoiding manual writing and input. This setup saves time and effort, improves weighing speed, ensures the accuracy of measurement data, and achieves intelligent weighing.

[0018] 2. The intelligent chicken weight measuring device provided by this utility model, when weighing a chicken in a fixed position, secures the chicken's two feet respectively within the first and second gripper openings. Furthermore, the lower ends of the first and second inclined columns are rounded before being connected to the upright column, ensuring a smooth surface where the chicken feet contact each other. Compared to existing technologies where the lower ends of the first and second inclined columns are not rounded and are directly connected to the upright column, i.e., using sharp angles to fix the chicken feet, this design is more user-friendly and reduces harm to the chicken.

[0023] Example 1

[0024] This utility model provides an intelligent chicken weight measuring device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a weighing device 1, a column 2, a first inclined column 3, and a second inclined column 4. The first inclined column 3 and the second inclined column 4 are identical in shape and symmetrically fixed to the column 2, for example, by welding, ensuring the stability of the device. The angle between the first or second inclined column and the column is 18-22 degrees, preferably 20 degrees. The first inclined column and the column form a first gripping opening 5, and the second inclined column and the column form a second gripping opening 6. The first gripping opening 5 and the second gripping opening 6 clamp and fix the chicken's feet. If the angle between the first or second inclined column 3 and the column 2 is too large, the clamping force on the chicken feet will be too small, and they may fall off. If the angle is too small, the clamping force on the chicken feet will be too large, and they may be damaged. The weighing device 1 is located above the column 2. When weighing a chicken, one of its claws can be wedged into the first gripper opening 5 and the other into the second gripper opening 6, with the chicken's head down and in an inverted position. This will prevent the chicken from struggling and make it easier to weigh. Since the display of the weighing device 1 is located above the column 2, there is no need to look down to check the weighing data, saving time and effort, and the structure is simple. The weighing device 1 has a built-in sensor and a program processing unit. The built-in sensor is connected to the program processing unit. The built-in sensor measures the weight of the chicken and generates a data signal. The program processing unit processes the data signal and transmits it to an external device. The built-in sensor senses the weight on the column 2 and converts it into an electrical signal. The program processing unit reads the electrical signal from the built-in sensor and converts it into a digital signal, which is then transmitted to an external device, such as a mobile phone or computer, via a communication interface (such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, USB, etc.), avoiding manual writing and input. The device has a simple structure, is lightweight and compact, and is easy to operate, saving time and effort. It improves the weighing rate, ensures the accuracy of measurement data, and realizes intelligent weighing.

[0025] In this embodiment, the lower ends of the first inclined column 3 and the second inclined column 4 are rounded before being connected to the upright column 2, ensuring that the surfaces in contact with the two chicken feet when gripped are smooth. Compared to the prior art where the lower ends of the first inclined column 3 and the second inclined column 4 are not rounded and are directly connected to the upright column 2, i.e., using sharp corners to fix the chicken feet, this design is more humane and reduces injury to the chickens. The upper ends of the first inclined column 3 and the second inclined column 4 are both downward-bent arc shapes, preventing the operator from touching sharp objects during weighing operations, thus creating a safer operating environment.

[0026] In this embodiment, the column 2 is hollow, and the outer diameter of the column 2 is preferably 15mm. The outer diameter of the column 2 is 14mm-16mm. If the diameter of the column 2 is too large, the chicken claws are easy to fall off from the gripper mouth, affecting the fixing effect. If the diameter of the column 2 is too small, it will affect the stability of the device.

[0027] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the first inclined post 3 or the second inclined post 4 is circular, and the diameter is 5mm-7mm, preferably 6mm. When the diameter is too large, the chicken claw is not easy to fit into the first claw opening 5 and the second claw opening 6, and it is easy to fall off. When the diameter is too small, it may bend the first inclined post 3 or the second inclined post 4, affecting the fixing effect. At the same time, the force-bearing area of ​​the chicken claw is too small, which will cause greater damage to the chicken.

[0028] In this embodiment, the lower end of the column 2 is fixedly connected to the base 7, which can be a threaded connection, a welded connection, or a plug-in connection, etc. The hollow column 2 houses the connecting wire for connecting the display end and the measuring end of the weighing device. The display end of the weighing device 1 is connected to the upper end of the column 2, and the measuring end of the weighing device 1 is connected to the base 7, thus realizing the connection between the weighing device 1 and the column 2. The diameter of the base 7 is 28cm-32cm, preferably 30cm. If the area of ​​the base 7 is too small, it may tip over after hanging a chicken, affecting the balance of the device. If the area of ​​the base 7 is too large, it is inconvenient to carry. The height from the connection point of the first inclined column 3 or the second inclined column 4 to the top of the column 2 is 18cm-22cm, preferably 20cm. The height from the connection point of the first inclined column 3 or the second inclined column 4 to the bottom of the column 2 is 78cm-82cm, preferably 80cm. If the height of the column 2 is too high, it will be inconvenient for short operators to operate and carry. If the height of the column 2 is too low, the operator will need to bend over to operate, which will also be inconvenient. At the same time, the chicken's head will touch the base, affecting the accuracy of weighing. The height parameters set in this way are more humane and reasonable.

[0029] In this embodiment, during the specific application, when weighing a chicken, the chicken is inverted, with one foot caught in the first gripper opening 5 and the other foot caught in the second gripper opening 6, and the chicken's head facing down. The chicken will then stop struggling, and the weighing device 1 will display the chicken's weight. The operator can then simply look up to check the data displayed on the weighing device 1. Alternatively, the operator can connect a mobile phone or computer to the weighing device 1 via a communication interface. The corresponding measured weight value will also be displayed on the mobile phone or computer, saving time and effort, simplifying operation, improving weighing speed, ensuring data accuracy, and achieving intelligent weighing.

[0030] Example 2

[0031] like Figure 2As shown, and in conjunction with the technical solution in Embodiment 1, the weighing device 1 is connected to the fixed bracket 8. The fixed bracket 8 is provided with a mounting groove 9, which is used to connect to protrusions (such as bolts, screws, etc.) on the external wall surface. The measuring end of the weighing device 1 is connected to a spring 10. After the chicken's claws are fixed to the column 2, the weighing device 1 senses the weight change on the column 2 and records the weight value, thus realizing the weighing operation. The spring 10 is detachably connected to the column 2. After weighing is completed, the column 2 can be removed, achieving convenient storage.

[0032] Example 3

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, and in conjunction with the technical solution in Embodiment 1, the measuring end of the weighing device 1 is connected to a hook 11, and the upper end of the column 2 is provided with a hanging ring 12, which the hook 11 can hook onto. The upper end of the weighing device 1 is connected to a carrying ring 13. When weighing a chicken, the hanging ring 12 on the column 2 is hung on the hook 11 to fix the chicken to the column 2. The weighing device 1 will sense the weight change on the column 2, and the operator can check the weight data by holding the carrying ring 13, thus achieving operational convenience. After weighing, the column 2 can be disassembled for convenient storage.

[0034] This utility model uses specific examples to illustrate its principles and implementation methods. The above description of the embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of ​​this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the idea of ​​this utility model. In summary, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
