Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pen enclosure technology, specifically an adjustable pen enclosure for pig farming. Background Technology
[0002] Raising pigs can further meet people's living needs. As people's living standards continue to improve, their requirements for pork quality are also increasing. Therefore, pigs are raised outdoors. In order to prevent pigs from running around, fences are needed to enclose them.
[0003] Most existing pig pen enclosures are fixed within a suitable area for raising pigs. However, because pigs are more active when raised outdoors, they are prone to running around and hitting the fences. Since the number of pigs raised in enclosures is usually large, these collisions are more frequent, which can lead to the fences becoming loose or even collapsing, ultimately resulting in pigs escaping. Moreover, the damage to pigs caused by hitting fixed fences is also greater. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an adjustable pig pen enclosure to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the problems mentioned in the background section, this utility model provides an adjustable pen for pig farming, which has the advantages of being adjustable and impact-resistant.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an adjustable pen for pig farming, comprising upper and lower crossbeam assemblies, with a plurality of evenly distributed enclosures welded between the two crossbeam assemblies, and a plurality of evenly distributed mounting components fixedly connected to the bottom left and right sides of the lower crossbeam assembly.
[0006] The crossbeam assembly includes two main beams, left and right, fixed between the enclosure and the installation assembly. Each of the two main beams is movably connected to a secondary beam at both ends. A locking assembly is slidably installed on the main beams.
[0007] The mounting assembly includes a fixing post disposed below the crossbeam assembly, a connecting spring fixedly connected to the top of the fixing post, a welding block fixedly connected to the top of the connecting spring, and the welding block welded to the bottom of a lower crossbeam assembly.
[0008] Preferably, the main beam includes telescopic tubes welded to the upper and lower ends of the enclosure, the welding block is welded to the bottom of the lower telescopic tube, and the front and rear ends of the outer surface of the telescopic tube are provided with two linkage slots, which are connected to the interior of the telescopic tube.
[0009] Preferably, the telescopic tube is slidably sleeved with two spring pressure rings located between two linkage slots. A telescopic buffer slide rod is fixedly sleeved inside the spring pressure ring. The distal ends of the two telescopic buffer slide rods pass through the telescopic tube and extend to the front and rear ends of the telescopic tube respectively, and are fixedly connected to a corresponding sub-beam respectively.
[0010] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a locking sleeve that is slidably sleeved on the outer surface of the telescopic tube and located outside the linkage groove. The locking sleeve is adapted to the enclosure. A linkage retaining ring is slidably sleeved between the telescopic tube and the telescopic buffer slide rod. Two upper and lower protrusions are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the linkage retaining ring and are slidably engaged inside the linkage groove. One end of the protrusion extends to the outside of the telescopic tube and is fixedly connected to the inside of the locking sleeve.
[0011] Preferably, the locking sleeve has a locking bolt threaded inside, one end of the locking bolt extends into the inside of the locking sleeve and abuts against the outer surface of the telescopic tube, and the other end of the locking bolt extends into the outside of the locking sleeve and has a knob integrally formed thereon.
[0012] Preferably, a buffer spring is provided between the telescopic tube and the telescopic buffer slide rod, with one end of the buffer spring abutting against the spring pressure ring and the other end of the buffer spring abutting against the linkage retaining ring.
[0013] Preferably, the secondary beam includes two sleeves connected to the front end of the telescopic tube. The distal ends of the two sleeves are respectively fixedly connected to the end of a corresponding telescopic buffer slide rod away from the spring pressure ring.

A connecting slide rod is fixedly connected between the facing surfaces of the two anti-detachment sliders. The connecting slide rod is slidably sleeved inside the proximal ends of the two sleeves.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. Due to the design of the installation components, this utility model can facilitate the workers to fix the guardrail outdoors. Moreover, the elasticity of the connecting spring can reduce the degree of vibration damage to the guardrail caused by impact. On the contrary, more importantly, it can greatly reduce the damage to pigs caused by impact.
[0016] 2. Under the restriction of the locking component, the present invention can restrict one end of the telescopic buffer slide rod of the fixed connection sub-beam to the inside of the telescopic tube by means of spring pressure ring and buffer spring, thereby ensuring the connection between the sub-beam and the main beam. At the same time, under the action of the elastic restoring force of the buffer spring, the impact buffering effect can be further increased, achieving the effect of local impact buffering, and avoiding the situation where local impacts cause too much disturbance or even fright to other pigs through the all-round buffering of the installation component.
[0017] 3. Due to the sleeve design, this utility model, in conjunction with the anti-detachment slider and connecting slide rod, facilitates the adjustment of the fence size according to the scale of enclosure before installation, thereby improving the rationality of enclosure. Furthermore, with the locking component, in conjunction with the installation component, the enclosure range of the fence can be adjusted after the outdoor installation of the fence is completed to adapt to the variability of the scale of enclosure.

[0024] 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.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides an adjustable pen for pig farming, including two upper and lower crossbeam assemblies 1, with a plurality of evenly distributed enclosures 2 welded between the two crossbeam assemblies 1, and a plurality of evenly distributed mounting components 3 fixedly connected to the bottom left and right sides of the lower crossbeam assembly 1.
[0026] The crossbeam assembly 1 includes two main beams 11 fixed between the enclosure 2 and the mounting assembly 3. Each of the two main beams 11 is movably connected to a secondary beam 12 at both ends. A locking assembly 13 is slidably mounted on the main beams 11.
[0027] The mounting component 3 includes a fixing post 31 located below the crossbeam assembly 1. A connecting spring 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing post 31, and a welding block 33 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting spring 32. The welding block 33 is welded to the bottom of the lower crossbeam assembly 1. Due to the installation of the mounting component 3, it is convenient for workers to fix the guardrail outdoors. Moreover, the elasticity of the connecting spring 32 can reduce the degree of vibration damage to the guardrail caused by impact. On the contrary, more importantly, it can greatly reduce the damage to pigs caused by impact.
[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the main beam 11 includes telescopic pipes 111 welded to the upper and lower ends of the enclosure 2. Welding block 33 is welded to the bottom of the lower telescopic pipe 111. The front and rear ends of the outer surface of the telescopic pipe 111 are provided with two linkage slots 112, which are connected to the interior of the telescopic pipe 111.
[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the telescopic tube 111 is slidably sleeved with two front and rear spring pressure rings 113 located between the two front and rear linkage slots 112. The inside of the spring pressure rings 113 is fixedly sleeved with telescopic buffer slide rods 114. The distal ends of the two telescopic buffer slide rods 114 pass through the telescopic tube 111 and extend to the front and rear ends of the telescopic tube 111 respectively, and are respectively fixedly connected to a corresponding sub-beam 12.
[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the locking assembly 13 includes a locking sleeve 131 that is slidably sleeved on the outer surface of the telescopic tube 111 and located outside the linkage groove 112. The locking sleeve 131 is adapted to the enclosure 2. A linkage retaining ring 132 is slidably sleeved between the telescopic tube 111 and the telescopic buffer slide rod 114. The outer surface of the linkage retaining ring 132 is fixedly connected with two upper and lower protrusions that are slidably engaged inside the linkage groove 112. One end of the protrusion extends to the outside of the telescopic tube 111 and is fixedly connected to the inside of the locking sleeve 131. Due to the setting of the linkage retaining ring 132 and its surface protrusions, with the cooperation of the linkage groove 112, it is ensured that the sub-beam 12 can slide along the surface of the telescopic tube 111 so as to restrict the connection of the sub-beam 12 with the cooperation of the spring pressure ring 113, the telescopic buffer slide rod 114 and the buffer spring 115. At the same time, it will not affect the situation where the spring pressure ring 113 compresses the buffer spring 115 through the telescopic buffer slide rod 114 when the sub-beam 12 and the upper enclosure 2 are impacted, thus achieving the buffering effect.
[0031] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the locking sleeve 131 has a locking bolt 133 threaded inside. One end of the locking bolt 133 extends into the interior of the locking sleeve 131 and abuts against the outer surface of the telescopic tube 111. The other end of the locking bolt 133 extends into the exterior of the locking sleeve 131 and has a knob 134 integrally formed thereon.
[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, a buffer spring 115 is provided between the telescopic tube 111 and the telescopic buffer slide rod 114. One end of the buffer spring 115 abuts against the spring pressure ring 113, and the other end of the buffer spring 115 abuts against the linkage retaining ring 132. Under the restriction of the locking assembly 13, the spring pressure ring 113 and the buffer spring 115 can restrict one end of the telescopic buffer slide rod 114, which is fixedly connected to the sub-beam 12, to the inside of the telescopic tube 111, thereby ensuring the connection between the sub-beam 12 and the main beam 11. At the same time, under the elastic restoring force of the buffer spring 115, the impact buffering effect can be further increased, achieving the effect of local impact buffering, and avoiding the situation where local impacts cause too much disturbance or even fright to other pigs through the all-round buffering of the installation assembly 3.
[0033] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the sub-beam 12 includes two sleeves 121 connected to the front end of the telescopic pipe 111. The distal ends of the two sleeves 121 are respectively fixedly connected to the end of a corresponding telescopic buffer slide rod 114 away from the spring pressure ring 113. The proximal ends of the two sleeves 121 are independent of each other. Anti-detachment sliders 122 are slidably sleeved inside the two sleeves 121. A connecting slide rod 123 is fixedly connected between the facing surfaces of the two anti-detachment sliders 122. The connecting slide rod 123 is slidably sleeved inside the proximal ends of the two sleeves 121. Due to the setting of the sleeves 121, with the cooperation of the anti-detachment sliders 122 and the connecting slide rod 123, it is convenient to adjust the fence size according to the scale of enclosure before installation, thereby improving the rationality of enclosure. With the cooperation of the installation component 3, the enclosure range of the fence can be adjusted after the outdoor installation of the fence is completed, in order to adapt to the variability of the scale of enclosure.
[0034] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:
[0035] As shown in the figure, to assemble the equipment, first move the equipment to the outdoor pre-installation area, and with the cooperation of the anti-detachment slider 122 and the connecting slider 123, adjust the distance between the two sleeves 121 according to the scale of the enclosure, that is, adjust the distance between the two main beams 11, and then insert the fixing pile 31 into the ground.
[0036] When an impact occurs, the elastic restoring force of the connecting spring 32 provides cushioning.
[0037] When impacting the sub-beam 12 and its upper enclosure 2, the spring pressure ring 113 can be driven to slide along the inside of the telescopic tube 111 by the telescopic buffer slide rod 114, thereby compressing the buffer spring 115 under the restriction of the locking assembly 13, so as to achieve the purpose of local impact buffering.
[0038] When the scale of captive breeding increases in the later stage, the spring pressure ring 113 can be rotated by the telescopic buffer slide rod 114 to release the locking sleeve 131 from the telescopic tube 111. Then, the secondary beam 12 and the enclosure 2 on it can be moved to increase the distance between the front and rear secondary beams 12. At the same time, the buffer spring 115 and the spring pressure ring 113 are moved to the corresponding positions. Finally, the locking assembly 13 is slid along the telescopic tube 111 and the linkage slot 112 until the buffer spring 115 is away from the spring pressure ring 113. The locking bolt 133 is then tightened by the knob 134 until the locking sleeve 131 and the telescopic tube 111 are locked again.
