Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chicken manure cleaning, and in particular to a chicken coop floor cleaning robot. Background Technology
[0002] Chicken and eggs are very popular foods in the market. With the increase in market demand, the scale of chicken farming is getting larger and larger. Most chickens are raised in chicken houses. In order to provide a good hygienic environment for chickens and reduce chicken diseases, chicken houses need to be cleaned regularly. Because the scale of chicken houses is too large, manual cleaning requires a lot of manpower and is not very effective. Sometimes, some chicken droppings or chicken feed stuck to the floor need to be scrubbed with a brush, which is inefficient.
[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent publication number CN218044973U, which discloses a chicken coop floor cleaning robot. This patent features a rinsing device mounted on a support frame, including a support frame, a rinsing device fixed to the support frame for spraying water to rinse the floor, a floor scrubbing device mounted on the support frame for brushing the floor, and a moving device for moving the cleaning robot. Mechanized floor cleaning can save a significant amount of manpower.
[0004] However, some chicken droppings may adhere tightly to the ground and be difficult to remove with a brush alone, which may also damage the brush. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a chicken coop floor cleaning robot to solve the above problems.
[0006] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A chicken coop floor cleaning robot includes a support frame, a water spraying mechanism between the support frames, a scrubbing mechanism on one side of the water spraying mechanism, a dirty water adsorption mechanism on the other side of the scrubbing mechanism, moving devices at both ends of the support frame, and an auxiliary mechanism on the side of the water spraying mechanism away from the scrubbing mechanism. The auxiliary mechanism includes a slider, and a shovel plate is connected to the bottom of the slider through an elastic component. The auxiliary mechanism also includes a power component and a limiting component. The power component is used to drive the slider to reciprocate diagonally downward under the action of the limiting component.
[0008] Preferably, the elastic component includes a telescopic rod fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider, a shovel plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the telescopic rod, a spring connected between the shovel plate and the slider, and the spring being wound around the outer periphery of the telescopic rod.
[0009] Preferably, the limiting component includes two limiting plates, front and rear, which are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support frame. A limiting groove is opened on the side of the two limiting plates that are close to each other. Limiting rods are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the shovel plate, and the limiting rods slide in the limiting grooves.
[0010] Preferably, the power assembly includes two mounting plates fixedly connected between the support frame. A stepper motor is fixedly connected to one side of one of the mounting plates. The output end of the stepper motor is connected to a reciprocating screw via a coupling. The reciprocating screw is rotatably connected between the two mounting plates. A slide rod is also fixedly connected between the two mounting plates. The slide block is threadedly connected to the reciprocating screw and slidably connected to the slide rod.
[0011] Preferably, the water spraying mechanism includes a support column fixedly connected to the top of the support frame, a water storage tank fixedly connected to the top of the support column, a water pump fixedly connected to one side of the water storage tank, a spray pipe fixedly connected between the inner walls of the support frame, a water pipe connected between the spray pipe and the outlet of the water pump, and a number of spray heads arranged at equal intervals fixedly connected to the bottom of the spray pipe.

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0026] like Figures 1-5As shown, a chicken coop floor cleaning robot includes a support frame 1. A water spraying mechanism is arranged between the support frames 1. The water spraying mechanism includes a column 201 fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1. A water storage tank 202 is fixedly connected to the top of the column 201. A water pump 203 is bolted to one side of the water storage tank 202. A spray pipe 205 is fixedly connected between the inner walls of the support frame 1. A water pipe 204 is connected between the spray pipe 205 and the outlet of the water pump 203. A number of spray heads 206 arranged at equal intervals are fixedly connected to the bottom of the spray pipe 205. When the water pump 203 is started, the water in the water storage tank 202 is transported to the spray pipe 205 through the water pipe 204 and then sprayed out by the spray heads 206 for easy cleaning.
[0027] A scrubbing mechanism is provided on one side of the water spraying mechanism. The scrubbing mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder 301 fixedly connected to the bottom of the water storage tank 202. A mounting bracket 302 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the hydraulic cylinder 301. A brush roller 303 is rotatably connected between the inner walls of the mounting bracket 302. A vertical plate 304 is bolted to the top of the mounting bracket 302. A rotary motor 305 is bolted to the rear side of the vertical plate 304. The output end of the rotary motor 305 is connected to a rotating shaft 306 through a coupling. A synchronous belt 307 is connected between the rotating shaft 306 and the brush roller 303 through a pulley. When the rotary motor 305 is started, the rotary motor 305 drives the rotating shaft 306 to rotate. The transmission between the pulley and the synchronous belt 307 drives the brush roller 303 to rotate, thus scrubbing the area that has been sprayed with water.
[0028] On the other side of the scrubbing mechanism is a dirty water adsorption mechanism, which includes a sponge roller 401 rotatably connected between the inner walls of the mounting frame 302. The sponge roller 401 consists of a shaft and sponge adhering to the outer wall of the shaft. The sponge roller 401 and the brush roller 303 are connected by a belt 402 via a pulley. A collection box 403 is bolted between the front and rear inner walls of the support frame 1. A scraper 404 is fixedly connected to the top of the collection box 403. The scraper 404 is inclined and its other end abuts against the sponge roller 401. The sponge roller 401 adsorbs the dirty water that has been washed away. When the sponge roller 401 rotates to the position of the scraper 404, the scraper 404 squeezes out the dirty water adsorbed in the sponge roller 401. The squeezed dirty water flows into the collection box 403 along the scraper 404, ensuring the adsorption effect of the sponge roller 401 and collecting the dirty water to ensure the cleaning effect.
[0029] The support frame 1 has moving devices at both ends. The moving devices include drive wheels and steering wheels. The drive wheels are driven by a drive motor fixed on the support frame. A steering platform for mounting the steering wheels is fixed on the support frame. A steering shaft that is rotatably connected to the steering platform is mounted on the steering platform. A support plate is fixed at the lower end of the steering shaft. A lifting hydraulic cylinder for controlling the lifting and lowering of one end of the support frame is fixed on the lower side of the support plate. A mounting platform for mounting the steering wheels is fixed at the lower end of the lifting hydraulic cylinder. A steering motor for rotating the steering shaft is fixed on the steering platform. The moving device is the moving device disclosed in the patent with publication number CN218044973U. Therefore, it will not be described in detail.
[0030] An auxiliary mechanism is provided on the side of the water spraying mechanism away from the scrubbing mechanism. The auxiliary mechanism includes a slider 505. The bottom of the slider 505 is connected to an inclined shovel 507 via an elastic component. The elastic component includes a telescopic rod 506 fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 505. The bottom of the telescopic rod 506 is fixedly connected to the shovel 507. A spring 508 is connected between the shovel 507 and the slider 505. The spring 508 is wrapped around the outer circumference of the telescopic rod 506. When the shovel 507 moves obliquely upward, the telescopic rod 506 retracts and the spring 508 is compressed. When the shovel 507 moves obliquely downward, the spring 508 releases force and the telescopic rod 506 returns to its original position.
[0031] The auxiliary mechanism also includes a power assembly, which includes two mounting plates 501 bolted together between the support frame 1. One side of one of the mounting plates 501 is bolted to a stepper motor 502. The output end of the stepper motor 502 is connected to a reciprocating screw 503 via a coupling. The reciprocating screw 503 is rotatably connected between the two mounting plates 501. A slide rod 504 is also fixedly connected between the two mounting plates 501. A slider 505 is threaded onto the reciprocating screw 503 and slidably connected onto the slide rod 504. When the stepper motor 502 is started, it drives the reciprocating screw 503 to rotate, and the reciprocating screw 503 drives the slider 505 to move back and forth along the slide rod 504.
[0032] The auxiliary mechanism also includes a limiting component, which includes two limiting plates 509 at the front and rear. The limiting plates 509 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the support frame 1. An inclined limiting groove is provided on the side of the two limiting plates 509 that are close to each other. Limiting rods 510 are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the shovel plate 507. The limiting rods 510 slide in the limiting groove. The power component is used to drive the slider 505 to reciprocate and move obliquely downward under the action of the limiting component.
[0033] Working principle: During use, the support frame 1 is moved by the moving device. Simultaneously, the stepper motor 502 is activated, driving the reciprocating screw 503 to rotate. The reciprocating screw 503 drives the slider 505 to move back and forth along the slide rod 504. As the slider 505 moves, it also drives the scraper plate 507 to move via the telescopic rod 506. The scraper plate 507 moves diagonally downwards and reciprocates under the limitation of the limiting groove on the limiting plate 509. The scraper plate 507 provides scraping force to the chicken manure adhering to the floor, separating the tightly adhered chicken manure from the floor for easier subsequent cleaning. After the scraper plate 507 has scraped, the water pump 203 is activated, transporting water from the water tank 202 to the spray pipe 205 through the water pipe 204, and then spraying it out from the spray head 206. The hydraulic cylinder 301 controls the brush roller 3... 03 and sponge roller 401 come into contact with the ground. Then, the rotary motor 305 is started, and the rotary motor 305 drives the rotary shaft 306 to rotate. Through the transmission between the pulley and the synchronous belt 307, the brush roller 303 is driven to rotate, and the area that has been sprayed with water is scrubbed. At the same time, the rotation of the brush roller 303 drives the sponge roller 401 to rotate through the transmission between the pulley and the belt 402. The sponge roller 401 absorbs the dirty water that has been washed away. When the sponge roller 401 rotates to the position of the scraper 404, the scraper 404 squeezes out the dirty water absorbed in the sponge roller 401. The squeezed dirty water flows into the collection box 403 along the scraper 404, ensuring the absorption effect of the sponge roller 401. When not in use, the brush roller 303 and sponge roller 401 are separated from the ground by controlling the hydraulic cylinder 301.
