[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of egg recycling and cleaning, and in particular relates to an egg recycling and cleaning mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In egg-laying hen farming, egg collection after laying usually requires manual collection or collection via conveyor belt. Manual egg collection is labor-intensive, and eggs are often covered with dirt after laying. Using a conveyor belt to transport eggs results in a large amount of dirt adhering to the conveyor belt, which affects its normal operation after a long period of use. Frequent cleaning and maintenance of the conveyor belt are required, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, eggs usually need to be cleaned promptly after collection. Eggs with heavy dirt are difficult to clean and require manual sorting for secondary cleaning. Manual operation is cumbersome and delays the overall egg collection progress. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an egg recycling and cleaning mechanism to solve the problems of high labor intensity in manual egg collection, the fact that eggs usually have dirt on them after laying, and the fact that a large amount of dirt will stick to the conveyor belt when using a conveyor belt to transport eggs. After a long period of use, the normal operation of the conveyor belt will be affected, and the conveyor belt needs to be cleaned and maintained frequently, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, eggs usually need to be cleaned in time after collection. Eggs with heavy dirt are difficult to clean and need to be manually sorted for secondary cleaning. The manual operation is cumbersome and delays the overall progress of egg recycling.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the specific technical solution of this utility model for an egg recycling and cleaning mechanism is as follows:

[0005] An egg collection and cleaning mechanism includes a chicken coop; a conveying device is provided on one side of the chicken coop; a first spiral conveying shaft is rotatably arranged inside the conveying device; a first motor is provided on one side of the conveying device to drive the first spiral conveying shaft; multiple egg collection troughs are arranged at a downward inclination relative to the conveying device in the chicken coop; a secondary cleaning device is connected to the end of the conveying device away from the first motor; two cleaning brush rollers are rotatably arranged inside the secondary cleaning device; a first gear is provided on one side of the cleaning brush rollers in the secondary cleaning device; the two first gears are meshed together; a second motor is provided on one side of the first gear in the secondary cleaning device; the second motor drives the rotation relative to the first gear; a second spiral conveying shaft is rotatably arranged on the upper side of the two cleaning brush rollers in the secondary cleaning device; a second gear is connected to the upper part of the second spiral conveying shaft; the second gear is meshed with an adjacent first gear; a cleaning liquid pipeline is provided in the secondary cleaning device; multiple spray heads are provided on the cleaning liquid pipeline relative to the cleaning brush rollers.

[0006] Furthermore, the conveying device contains a cleaning liquid.

[0007] Furthermore, a soft rubber baffle is installed on the side of the conveying device away from the chicken coop.

[0008] Furthermore, the egg collecting groove is provided with multiple buffer ridges.

[0009] This utility model of an egg recycling and cleaning mechanism has the following advantages: An egg collection trough and conveying device are installed on one side of the chicken coop. Eggs are collected through the trough and guided into the conveying device. A first motor drives a first spiral conveyor shaft to collect and transport the eggs to a secondary cleaning device for cleaning. This eliminates the need for manual collection and avoids dirt from the eggs adhering to workers or the conveyor belt. Once in the secondary cleaning device, the eggs are cleaned by two rotating cleaning rollers, while multiple spray nozzles installed through the cleaning liquid pipe spray cleaning liquid, ensuring thorough rinsing and cleaning. Simultaneously, a second spiral conveyor shaft drives the eggs to move. Cleaning is completed when the eggs reach the outlet of the secondary cleaning device. The entire process of collection, transportation, and cleaning requires no manual operation, saving labor costs. The process is convenient and reduces the risk of secondary contamination of eggs. A cleaning liquid is installed within the conveying device. After eggs are collected in the egg collection trough and introduced into the conveying device, they are immersed in the cleaning liquid. Then, driven by the first spiral conveyor shaft, they move towards the secondary cleaning device. During the egg conveying process, the immersion in the cleaning liquid and the movement of the first spiral conveyor shaft effectively remove most of the dirt, feces, and other impurities from the eggshell, and kill bacteria and viruses on the egg surface, completing the first simple cleaning of the eggs. Immersing the eggs in the cleaning liquid softens stubborn dirt, facilitating subsequent secondary cleaning by the secondary cleaning device, increasing the overall cleaning effect of the eggs, reducing subsequent repeated cleaning work, increasing work efficiency, and making it suitable for large-scale production.

[0017] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model discloses an egg recycling and cleaning mechanism, including a chicken coop 1; a conveying device 2 is provided on one side of the chicken coop 1; a first spiral conveying shaft 3 is rotatably arranged inside the conveying device 2; a first motor 4 is provided on one side of the conveying device 2 to drive the first spiral conveying shaft 3; multiple egg collection troughs 5 are provided on the chicken coop 1 at a downward inclination relative to the conveying device 2; a secondary cleaning device 6 is connected to the end of the conveying device 2 away from the first motor 4; two cleaning brush rollers 7 are rotatably arranged inside the secondary cleaning device 6; a first gear 8 is provided on one side of the secondary cleaning device 6 for the cleaning brush rollers 7; the two first... The gears 8 are meshed together; a second motor 9 is provided on one side of a first gear 8 in the secondary cleaning device 6; the second motor 9 drives the first gear 8 to rotate; a second spiral conveying shaft 10 is rotatably provided on the upper side of the two cleaning brush rollers 7 inside the secondary cleaning device 6; a second gear 11 is connected to the upper part of the first gear 8 on the second spiral conveying shaft 10; the second gear 11 is meshed with an adjacent first gear 8; a cleaning liquid pipe 12 is provided inside the secondary cleaning device 6; multiple spray heads 13 are provided on the cleaning liquid pipe 12 relative to the cleaning brush rollers 7.

[0018] Combination Figure 1-5As shown, during use, eggs laid by hens in chicken house 1 are guided to conveyor device 2 through egg collection trough 5 set on one side of chicken house 1. The first motor 4 set on one side of conveyor device 2 drives the first spiral conveyor shaft 3 to move the eggs in conveyor device 2 and then fall into secondary cleaning device 6. After the eggs reach secondary cleaning device 6, they are cleaned by two cleaning brush rollers 7 driven by the second motor 9. The two cleaning brush rollers 7 are rotated inward by the meshing connection of the two first gears 8. The second spiral conveyor shaft 10 set on the upper side prevents the eggs from falling off the cleaning brush rollers 7. While the eggs are being cleaned by the two cleaning brush rollers 7, cleaning liquid is sprayed by multiple spray nozzles 13 set in the cleaning liquid pipe 12, so that the eggs are thoroughly rinsed and cleaned. At the same time, the eggs are driven to move by the second spiral conveyor shaft 10. When the eggs move to the outlet position of secondary cleaning device 6, the cleaning is completed. The process of collecting, picking up, conveying and cleaning does not require manual operation, saving labor costs. The process is convenient and reduces the risk of secondary contamination of eggs.

[0019] The conveying device 2 is equipped with a cleaning liquid. When eggs are collected by the egg collection trough 5 and introduced into the conveying device 2, they are immersed in the cleaning liquid. Then, driven by the first spiral conveyor shaft 3, they move to the secondary cleaning device 6. During the egg conveying process, the immersion in the cleaning liquid and the driving force of the first spiral conveyor shaft 3 can effectively remove most of the dirt, feces and other impurities on the eggshell, and kill bacteria and viruses on the egg surface, completing the first simple cleaning of the eggs. The immersion in the cleaning liquid can soften the stubborn dirt, making it easier to use the secondary cleaning device 6 for secondary cleaning of the eggs. This increases the overall cleaning effect of the eggs, reduces the need for repeated cleaning, increases work efficiency, and is suitable for large-scale production.

[0020] The egg collection trough 5 is equipped with multiple buffer strips 15, and the conveying device 2 is equipped with a soft rubber baffle 14 on the side away from the chicken house 1. The eggs are guided from the chicken house 1 into the conveying device 2 through the inclined egg collection trough 5. The multiple buffer strips 15 on the egg collection trough 5 can slow down the speed at which the eggs fall from the egg collection trough 5 into the conveying device 2. In conjunction with the soft rubber baffle 14 on the side of the conveying device 2 away from the chicken house 1, the breakage of the eggs due to collision can be effectively reduced when they fall into the conveying device 2, thus reducing egg damage.
