[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a temperature regulating device for rabbit breeding cages, including an outer shell 1 installed inside the breeding cage. The outer shell 1 is used to protect and prevent contamination of the radiator 2, water inlet pipe 3, and water return pipe 4. The radiator 2 is installed inside the outer shell 1, and the heat dissipation fins of the radiator 2 are connected and fixed to the outer shell 1 at intervals. The outer shell 1 is preferably made of aluminum alloy with high thermal conductivity to ensure heat conduction efficiency. The upper and lower sides of the side surface of the radiator 2 are respectively connected to the water inlet pipe 3 and the water return pipe 4. Both the water inlet pipe 3 and the water return pipe 4 are connected to an external circulating water device, which includes a water tank, a heater, a cooler, and a water pump. By installing the radiator 2 inside the breeding cage and introducing water of the appropriate temperature through the water inlet pipe 3 and the water return pipe 4, the temperature inside the breeding cage can be regulated. Hot water can be introduced for heating when the temperature is low in winter, and cold water can be introduced for cooling when the temperature is high in summer, so that the temperature inside the breeding cage is maintained at a suitable temperature, thereby ensuring the health of the rabbits, reducing the incidence of disease, and improving the quality of the rabbits.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, several air outlets 5 are evenly distributed on the upper part of both sides of the outer shell 1. An air inlet pipe 6, which communicates with the interior of the outer shell 1, is installed on the side surface of the outer shell 1 on the same side as the water inlet pipe 3 and the water return pipe 4. A fan 7 is installed on the air inlet pipe 6. The fan 7 is electrically connected to an external control switch. The fan 7 can blow external air into the interior of the outer shell 1 through the air inlet pipe 6. After being heated or cooled by the radiator 2, the external air is blown out from the air outlets 5 into each breeding cage, which can accelerate the rise or fall of the temperature inside the breeding cage, and make temperature regulation faster and more effective.

[0020] The fan 7 and the heater, cooler and water pump in the external circulating water equipment used in this application are all commonly used electronic components in the prior art. Their specific structure, working principle, control method and circuit connection are all well known technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0021] In a further preferred embodiment, a groove is formed on the inner surface of the air outlet 5, and a baffle 8 is slidably disposed within the groove. The baffle 8 controls the opening and closing of the air outlet 5, allowing the air outlet 5 in a single breeding cage to be opened or closed according to specific breeding needs, thus improving operational flexibility. For example, if the breeding cage contains young rabbits or is empty, its air outlet 5 can be closed, thereby reducing the power consumption of the fan 7 and contributing to energy conservation and environmental protection.

[0022] In a further preferred embodiment, the side surface of the outer shell 1 is provided with a through groove 9 that communicates with the slide groove, and a push block is installed on the upper part of the side surface of the baffle 8. The push block is slidably disposed in the through groove 9. The baffle 8 can be moved by the push block, thereby opening or closing the air outlet 5. The operation is simple and the adjustment is convenient.

[0023] Specifically, the pushing block includes a slider 11 and a fixed shaft 10. The fixed shaft 10 is fixedly mounted on the upper part of the side surface of the baffle 8 and slides within the through groove 9. The slider 11 is rotatably mounted at one end of the fixed shaft 10 located outside the through groove 9. The slider 11 drives the fixed shaft 10 and the baffle 8 to move up and down. The slider 11 can rotate to be perpendicular or parallel to the through groove 9. Two stops 12 are provided on the side surface of the outer casing 1, corresponding to the slider 11. The two stops 12 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the through groove 9. When it is necessary to open the air outlet 5, the slider 11 is rotated to be perpendicular or parallel to the through groove 9. When the through groove 9 is parallel and moves upward, it drives the fixed shaft 10 and the baffle 8 to move upward and open the air outlet 5. After reaching the highest point, the slider 11 can rotate 90° without being disturbed by the baffle 12. After rotating to be perpendicular to the through groove 9, the slider 11 is released and can be locked on the two baffles 12, so that the baffle 8 is located above the air outlet 5 and keeps it open. When it is necessary to close the air outlet 5, the slider 11 is moved upward to the highest point and then rotated to be parallel to the through groove 9 and the slider 11 is moved downward, which drives the fixed shaft 10 and the baffle 8 to move downward and thus close the air outlet 5.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, a filter screen 13 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the air outlet 5. The filter screen 13 is used to prevent debris in the breeding cage from entering the outer shell 1 and affecting the heat conduction efficiency of the radiator 2.

[0025] Optionally, a temperature sensor can also be installed on the outer casing 1 to detect the temperature outside the outer casing 1 or inside the breeding cage. The temperature sensor and the heater, cooler and water pump in the external circulating water equipment are all electrically connected to the controller. The controller is preferably a commonly used microcontroller or PLC controller, such as an Arduino series microcontroller or a Siemens S7 series PLC controller. The controller controls the temperature sensor and the heater, cooler and water pump in the external circulating water equipment in a way that is commonly used in the prior art. By preset the temperature value of the breeding cage in the controller, the power and switching of the heater, cooler and water pump are automatically controlled to adjust the temperature inside the breeding cage, thereby improving the intelligence of temperature regulation.

[0026] Optionally, a humidifier and humidity sensor can also be installed on the outer casing 1 to automatically adjust the humidity inside the breeding cage when it is relatively dry in winter, so as to further improve the health of the meat rabbits.

[0027] The parts not disclosed in this utility model are all prior art, and their specific structures, materials, and working principles will not be described in detail. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
