Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of livestock breeding equipment, specifically a temperature control board for livestock farming. Background Technology
[0002] In modern animal husbandry, creating a suitable living environment for livestock plays a crucial role in improving their growth, development, health, and production performance. Temperature, as one of the most important environmental factors, directly affects the survival rate of offspring, the reproductive capacity of animals, and the overall breeding efficiency.
[0003] Traditional livestock temperature control equipment has many shortcomings. Early temperature control boards had simple structures and a single heating method, often using ordinary resistance wire heating, which resulted in uneven heating and large temperature differences on the equipment surface. Some areas were too hot and could burn livestock, while some areas were too cold and could not meet the livestock's need for a warm environment, seriously affecting the livestock's comfort and growth.
[0004] In terms of heat preservation performance, most temperature control panels only use basic heat insulation materials, resulting in poor heat preservation and easy heat loss. This not only wastes a lot of energy and increases breeding costs, but also makes it extremely difficult to maintain a stable temperature environment. In the cold season, a large amount of electricity needs to be consumed continuously to reach the required temperature, which undoubtedly brings a heavy economic burden to the farm.
[0005] Furthermore, traditional temperature control equipment has limited temperature control accuracy, failing to meet the precise temperature requirements of livestock at different stages of breeding. For example, young animals have extremely stringent temperature requirements for a period after birth, and even slight temperature fluctuations can affect their health and survival. However, existing temperature control panels struggle to achieve precise temperature control, resulting in significant temperature fluctuations, which poses a considerable challenge to livestock farming.
[0006] Meanwhile, these devices also lack functional integration, failing to effectively link with other aquaculture equipment and enabling intelligent management. Farmers often need to operate and monitor temperature control, ventilation, and humidity regulation equipment separately, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and resources but is also prone to operational errors, failing to meet the development trend of modern and efficient aquaculture. Utility Model Content

[0018] Beneficial effects:
[0019] I. Precise Temperature Monitoring and Control: This temperature control board is equipped with several high-precision thermistor sensors between the bottom insulation layer and the heat storage and heat equalization layer. The measurement accuracy can reach ±0.1℃. These sensors are electrically connected to the controller, which can monitor the internal temperature of the temperature control board in real time and accurately, and quickly transmit the temperature information to the controller. Based on the received data, the controller precisely controls the on / off state and power of the heating rod and heating wire to achieve precise temperature regulation, ensuring that the surface temperature of the temperature control board is uniform and stable, and providing the most suitable temperature environment for livestock.
[0020] II. High-Efficiency Heating and Insulation Performance: The heating layer employs a combination of ceramic heating rods and heating wires. The ceramic heating rods feature high heating efficiency, high stability, and long lifespan, enabling continuous and stable operation in high-temperature environments. The heating wires and heating rods are connected in parallel or series in the heating circuit, allowing for flexible adjustment of the heating mode according to different power requirements and heating specifications, achieving rapid and efficient heating. The bottom insulation layer uses polystyrene foam board to effectively prevent heat conduction to the ground. The heat storage and heat equalization layer consists of phase change materials and aluminum alloy plates. The phase change materials store and release heat during temperature changes, while the aluminum alloy plates ensure uniform heat diffusion. The protective surface layer uses rubber material, further enhancing the overall insulation performance. This multi-layered structure works synergistically to significantly reduce heat loss, improve energy utilization efficiency, and lower breeding costs.
[0021] III. Secure and Sealed Installation of the Insulated Box: The locking assembly on the temperature control board includes four sets of clamping plates spaced circumferentially. Damping rods and clamping springs are installed between the clamping plates and the temperature control board. The clamping springs' elastic force firmly secures the insulated box, while the damping rods prevent excessive movement, ensuring the box's stable installation. Simultaneously, rubber sealing gaskets are located on the inner side of the clamping plates. When the clamping plates clamp the insulated box, the rubber sealing gaskets fit tightly against the box surface, further enhancing the sealing performance and effectively reducing heat loss from the joints, maintaining a stable temperature inside the insulated box.
[0022] IV. Flexible Ventilation Adjustment Function: The side wall of the incubator is equipped with several ventilation holes and a sliding adjustment plate. The adjustment plate has adjustment holes corresponding to the ventilation holes. By rotating the adjustment screw, which is threaded to the incubator, the adjustment plate moves linearly, changing the overlap area between the adjustment hole and the ventilation hole, thereby achieving precise control of the ventilation volume. This flexible ventilation adjustment design can adjust the air circulation inside the incubator in a timely manner according to the actual needs of the breeding environment, ensuring good air quality inside the incubator and creating a healthy breathing environment for livestock.
[0023] V. Convenient Observation and Operation Experience: The side walls of the insulated box are equipped with transparent panels, allowing farmers to easily observe the livestock's activity inside without frequently opening the box, thus preventing heat loss and the intrusion of external pathogens. Simultaneously, the handle connected to one end of the adjusting screw allows farmers to easily and quickly adjust the ventilation volume; the operation is simple and easy to understand, improving the efficiency of livestock management.

[0030] The foregoing and other technical contents, features and effects of this utility model are described in conjunction with the appendix below. Figure 1-5 The detailed description of the embodiments will clearly demonstrate this. All structural details mentioned in the following embodiments are based on the accompanying drawings.
[0031] Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0032] Example 1: A temperature control board for livestock farming, comprising a temperature control board body, characterized in that the temperature control board body mainly consists of a bottom insulation layer 1, a heating layer 2, a heat storage and heat equalization layer 3, and a protective surface layer 4. A plurality of temperature control sensors 5 are provided between the bottom insulation layer 1 and the heat storage and heat equalization layer 3. The temperature control sensors 5 are electrically connected to the controller of the temperature control board and are used to monitor the internal temperature of the temperature control board and transmit the temperature information to the controller. An insulation box 6 is provided on the temperature control board body, and a locking assembly that cooperates with the insulation box 6 is provided on the temperature control board body.
[0033] As an optional embodiment of Example 1, the bottom insulation layer 1 is made of polystyrene foam board, the heat storage and heat equalization layer 3 is mainly composed of phase change material and aluminum alloy plate, the protective surface layer 4 is made of rubber material, the heating layer 2 includes a plurality of heating rods 7 and heating wires 8, the plurality of heating rods 7 and heating wires 8 are disposed between the bottom insulation layer 1 and the heat storage and heat equalization layer 3, the heating rods 7 and heating wires 8 are connected in parallel or in series in the heating circuit, and the on / off state and power of the heating rods 7 and heating wires 8 are controlled by a controller.
[0034] As an optional embodiment of Example 1, the temperature control sensor 5 is a high-precision thermistor sensor with a measurement accuracy of ±0.1℃.
[0035] As an optional embodiment of Example 1, the heating rod 7 is a ceramic heating rod.
[0036] When using it, the bottom insulation layer is installed as follows: Select a 5 cm thick polystyrene foam board as the bottom insulation layer 1, lay it flat on the bottom frame of the temperature control board body, and fix it with special glue or clips to ensure that the insulation layer is tightly attached to the frame without gaps, effectively preventing heat from being conducted downward to the ground and reducing energy consumption.
[0037] Heating layer arrangement: Heating layer 2 consists of ceramic heating rods 7 and heating wires 8. First, based on the size and power requirements of the temperature control board, the quantity and layout of heating rods 7 and heating wires 8 are calculated and determined. Heating rods 7 are evenly distributed above the bottom insulation layer 1 and fixed with a high-temperature resistant bracket. Heating wires 8 are spirally wound around the heating rods 7 and wired in the pre-set grooves on the bottom insulation layer 1 to ensure that heating wires 8 are stable and do not shift. Then, heating rods 7 and heating wires 8 are connected to the heating circuit in parallel. Their on / off state and power can be independently controlled by the controller.
[0038] Construction of the heat storage and heat equalization layer: The heat storage and heat equalization layer 3 is composed of phase change material and aluminum alloy plate. First, the aluminum alloy plate is placed on top of the heating layer 2. The thickness of the aluminum alloy plate is 3 mm. It is fixed to the heating layer by welding or high-strength glue to ensure good heat conduction. Then, the phase change material is filled into a specific mold above the aluminum alloy plate to form a heat storage layer. The phase change material is a paraffin-based material with a melting point near the suitable breeding temperature range. When the temperature rises, the phase change material absorbs and stores heat. When the temperature drops, it releases the stored heat, which plays a role in stabilizing the temperature.
[0039] Temperature control sensor installation: Five high-precision thermistor sensors are evenly distributed between the bottom insulation layer 1 and the heat storage and heat dissipation layer 3 as temperature control sensors 5. Each sensor is connected to the controller of the temperature control board through a high-temperature resistant wire to ensure that the sensor can accurately monitor the temperature inside the temperature control board and transmit the temperature information to the controller in a timely manner.
[0040] Protective Surface Layer Installation: A rubber material with anti-slip, wear-resistant, insulating, and flexible properties is selected as the protective surface layer 4. The rubber sheet is cut into a shape that matches the size of the temperature control board, and then glued on top of the heat storage and heat equalization layer 3 with strong adhesive, ensuring that the protective surface layer completely covers the upper structure, providing a comfortable and safe standing surface for livestock.
[0041] Example 2: A temperature control plate for livestock insulated box. Based on the example, the locking assembly includes four sets of clamping plates 9 spaced circumferentially on the temperature control plate body to cooperate with the insulated box 6. The four sets of clamping plates 9 are provided with damping rods 10 and clamping springs 11 between them and the temperature control plate body.
[0042] As an optional embodiment 2, the side wall of the heat preservation box 6 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 12 and an adjusting plate 13 is slidably connected thereto. The adjusting plate 13 is provided with adjusting holes 14 corresponding to the ventilation holes 12. The heat preservation box 6 is threadedly connected to an adjusting screw 15. One end of the adjusting screw 15 is rotatably connected to the adjusting plate 13, and the other end is connected to a handle 16.
[0043] As an optional embodiment of Example 2, each side wall of the insulated box 6 is provided with a transparent plate 17.
[0044] As an optional embodiment of Example 2, the inner side of the clamping plate 9 is provided with a rubber sealing gasket.
[0045] As an optional embodiment of Example 2, the adjustment hole 14 and the ventilation hole 12 are circular or rectangular.
[0046] As an optional embodiment of Example 2, the edge of the adjusting plate 13 is provided with a guide groove, and the inner wall of the heat preservation box 6 is provided with a guide strip that cooperates with the guide strip.
[0047] During use, the locking assembly is installed as follows: Four sets of clamping plates 9 are arranged circumferentially along the edge of the temperature control plate body. Each set of clamping plates 9 is connected to the temperature control plate body through a damping rod 10 and a clamping spring 11. One end of the damping rod 10 is fixed to the temperature control plate body, and the other end is movably connected to the middle of the clamping plate 9 to restrict the movement direction of the clamping plate 9. The clamping spring 11 is sleeved on the damping rod 10, with one end fixed to the temperature control plate body and the other end connected to the clamping plate 9. Its elastic force enables the clamping plate 9 to generate a continuous clamping force on the insulation box 6. A rubber sealing gasket is pasted on the inner side of the clamping plate 9 to enhance the sealing performance when in contact with the insulation box 6.
[0048] Placement of the insulated box body: Place the insulated box 6 on the temperature control plate body, so that the edge of the insulated box 6 corresponds to the four sets of clamping plates 9, and use the clamping force of the clamping plates 9 to firmly fix the insulated box 6 on the temperature control plate body.
[0049] Ventilation adjustment component installation: Several circular ventilation holes 12 are evenly opened on the side wall of the insulated box 6. An adjustment plate 13 adapted to the size of the side wall of the insulated box is made. Adjustment holes 14 are opened on the adjustment plate 13 at the positions corresponding to the ventilation holes 12. An adjustment screw 15 is installed on the outer side wall of the insulated box 6. The adjustment screw 15 is connected to the insulated box 6 by threads. One end of the adjustment screw 15 passes through the side wall of the insulated box 6 and is rotatably connected to the adjustment plate 13. The other end is connected to the handle 16. A guide groove is set on the edge of the adjustment plate 13. At the same time, a guide strip is set at the corresponding position on the inner wall of the insulated box 6 to ensure that the adjustment plate 13 slides smoothly and steadily.
[0050] Transparent panel installation: Transparent panels 17 are installed on all four side walls of the insulated box 6. The transparent panels 17 are made of high-strength transparent acrylic sheets and are fixed to the side walls of the insulated box 6 by means of slots or glue, so as to facilitate observation of the inside of the insulated box 6.
[0051] Workflow
[0052] Temperature monitoring and feedback: Temperature sensor 5 monitors the temperature inside the temperature control board in real time. When the temperature is lower than the set lower limit, temperature sensor 5 transmits the temperature information to the controller.
[0053] Heating Control: After receiving temperature information, the controller determines whether heating needs to be activated based on a preset algorithm. If rapid heating is required, both heating rod 7 and heating wire 8 are activated simultaneously, and their power is adjusted to a higher level. If the temperature approaches the set value, only heating wire 8 is activated for fine-tuning. During the heating process, the controller continuously receives temperature feedback from the temperature sensor 5 and dynamically adjusts the on / off state and power of heating rod 7 and heating wire 8 to maintain the temperature within the set range.
[0054] Insulation box fixing and sealing: The insulation box 6 is firmly fixed to the temperature control board body by the locking assembly consisting of clamping plate 9, damping rod 10 and clamping spring 11. The rubber sealing gasket on the inner side of clamping plate 9 is tightly attached to the insulation box 6, effectively preventing heat loss from the connection between the two.
[0055] Ventilation adjustment: When it is necessary to adjust the ventilation volume in the heat preservation box 6, the farmer turns the handle 16, which drives the adjusting screw 15 to rotate. Since the adjusting screw 15 is threadedly connected to the heat preservation box 6, the rotational motion of the adjusting screw 15 is converted into the linear motion of the adjusting plate 13. By moving the adjusting plate 13, the overlapping area of the adjusting hole 14 and the ventilation hole 12 is changed, thereby achieving precise control of the ventilation volume.
[0056] Observation and Operation: Farmers can observe the condition of the livestock inside the incubator at any time through the transparent panel 17 on the side wall of the incubator 6. When it is necessary to adjust the ventilation, the ventilation can be adjusted by directly operating the handle 16. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0057] The above description is only for illustrating the present utility model. It should be understood that the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications that conform to the concept of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
