Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of breeding equipment, in particular to a vertical multi-layer chicken coop. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, the poultry (chickens, ducks, geese, etc.) breeding industry in China has developed rapidly, contributing to the economic development of China. The existing poultry feeding generally adopts land flat feeding or cage feeding mode. Since land flat feeding occupies a large area and is not convenient for feeding management, farmers now mostly use cage feeding to feed laying hens, and generally use stacked or stepped breeding cages to achieve large-scale modern breeding.

[0003] At present, many breeding cages lack a relatively safe egg collecting function, especially when large-scale poultry breeding is carried out. Due to a large breeding base per unit, the eggs are often not collected in time, and the phenomenon of collision and damage between later eggs and previous eggs often occurs. For example, the Chinese utility model with the publication number CN221128461U and the name of the egg picking machine for the layer type chicken coop has an egg collecting function, but the collision and damage of eggs still occur inevitably during the egg collecting process. SUMMARY

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a vertical multi-layer chicken coop to solve the problem of the unsafety of the egg collecting function of the existing breeding cage and the frequent collision and damage between later eggs and previous eggs.

[0008] A further technical solution is: the egg puller includes a rotating shaft and an egg-holding plate. The rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the base plate, and multiple egg-holding plates are evenly mounted on the rotating shaft along the circumferential direction. The concave part of the egg-holding plate is adapted to the egg.

[0009] A further technical solution is that an elastic mesh is provided in the concave part of the egg-holding plate.

[0010] A further technical solution is that the minimum distance between adjacent egg-holding plates is greater than the maximum diameter of the egg.

[0011] A further technical solution is: an elastic buffer channel is installed inside the egg collection trough, and the inner bottom surface of the elastic buffer channel is inclined and the lower end is close to the discharge end of the egg collection trough.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. Example

[0028] This implementation example Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a vertical multi-layer chicken cage includes a cage frame 1, which has multiple independent rearing chambers 2 distributed from top to bottom. Egg outlets are provided on the outer sides of the rearing chambers 2. The bottom plate 3 of the rearing chambers 2 is inclined outwards with its lower end located on the outer side. An egg-collecting mechanism 4 adapted to the egg outlets is provided on the bottom plate 3.

[0029] The egg collecting mechanism 4 includes an egg-dispensing cylinder 5, an egg dispenser 6, a motor 7, an egg collection trough 8, and a sensor 9. The egg-dispensing cylinder 5 is mounted on the base plate 3, and the feed end of the egg-dispensing cylinder 5 is adapted to the egg outlet. The egg dispenser 6 is rotatably mounted on the base plate 3, and the egg dispenser 6 is located inside the egg-dispensing cylinder 5. The power output end of the motor 7 is connected to the outer end of the egg dispenser 6. The feed end of the egg collection trough 8 is connected to the discharge end of the egg-dispensing cylinder 5. The sensor 9 is mounted on the base plate 3 and close to the feed end of the egg-dispensing cylinder 5. The sensor 9 is electrically connected to the motor 7 through a PLC controller.

[0030] When poultry such as laying hens lay eggs in the breeding room 2, the eggs 15 will roll outward along the bottom plate 3 until they reach the egg collection mechanism 4 and are detected by the sensor 9. At this point, the eggs 15 will continue to roll into the egg releaser 6 (or fall into the egg release cylinder 5). Then, the controller will control the egg releaser 6 to rotate, pushing the eggs 15 out of the egg release cylinder 5 and then into the egg collection trough 8 for unified collection. During the entire egg release process, eggs are pushed away as soon as they arrive to prevent the eggs from being squeezed and to avoid the risk of later eggs hitting earlier eggs, ensuring the safety of the eggs during the egg collection process. At the same time, the eggs 15 are also sorted out for easy collection later. Example

[0031] Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment, for example Figure 3 As shown, the egg puller 6 includes a rotating shaft 10 and an egg-holding plate 11. The rotating shaft 10 is rotatably mounted on the base plate 3, and multiple egg-holding plates 11 are evenly mounted on the rotating shaft 10 along the circumferential direction. The concave part of the egg-holding plate 11 is adapted to the egg 15.

[0032] The egg catching plate 11 is arc-shaped, and the arc of the arc-shaped is generally larger than the conventional egg 15. When the egg 15 rolls towards the egg catching plate 11, the position of the egg catching plate 11 is controlled by the motor 7 (such as a stepper motor) so that the egg 15 just falls into the egg catching plate 11, and then the motor 7 rotates to move the egg 15 in the egg pushing cylinder 5 until the egg 15 falls into the egg collecting groove 8 from the discharge port of the egg pushing cylinder 5.

[0033] Preferably, the inner recess of the egg catching plate 11 is provided with an elastic net 12.

[0034] The elastic net 12 is used to prevent the egg 15 from being damaged by directly hitting the egg catching plate 11.

[0035] Preferably, the minimum distance between adjacent egg catching plates 11 is greater than the maximum diameter of the egg 15.

[0036] The egg 15 can smoothly enter the egg catching plate 11. Embodiment

[0037] Based on the above-mentioned embodiments, the present embodiment has the advantages of Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the elastic buffer channel 13 is installed in the egg collecting groove 8, and the inner bottom surface of the elastic buffer channel 13 is inclined and the lower end is close to the discharge end of the egg collecting groove 8.

[0038] The egg 15 directly falls into the egg collecting groove 8 and is easy to be damaged by hitting. After the buffering of the elastic buffer channel 13, the damage of the egg 15 can be greatly reduced, and the egg 15 rolls forward in one direction in the elastic buffer channel 13, which is beneficial to the collection of the egg 15.

[0039] Preferably, the inner bottom surface of the elastic buffer channel 13 is provided with a plurality of speed reduction pits 14.

[0040] When the egg 15 rolls forward in one direction in the elastic buffer channel 13, the speed reduction pit 14 is beneficial to the speed reduction of the egg 15, preventing the egg from being damaged due to too high speed.

[0041] Preferably, the elastic buffer channel 13 is made of foam material.

[0042] Preferably, the sensor 9 is an infrared sensor.

[0043] Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement to part of the technical features, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
