Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of calf basin cleaning equipment, specifically an automatic calf basin cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Livestock feed troughs should be kept clean; otherwise, bacteria can easily grow on them, potentially spreading diseases and affecting the livestock's health. Therefore, after feeding the livestock, the feed troughs need to be cleaned to ensure their cleanliness and prevent health problems caused by unclean feed troughs. Traditional manual cleaning of feed troughs is time-consuming, labor-intensive, ineffective, and physically demanding. Publication number CN220444586U discloses a linear conveyor type feed trough washing machine, including a frame with a cleaning chamber. The cleaning chamber contains one or multiple cleaning chambers arranged sequentially from front to back. The cleaning chamber has an inlet and an outlet at its front and rear ends, respectively. Two sprockets with central shafts are horizontally arranged in the left-right direction at the front and rear of the cleaning chamber, respectively. A conveyor chain running through the cleaning chamber is sleeved on the two sprockets. Several baffles are evenly spaced along the length of the conveyor chain, and the feed trough is placed above the conveyor chain. The washing chamber is equipped with a limiting device located above the conveyor chain to restrict the feed basin's upward, leftward, and rightward movement. Each washing chamber is also equipped with a spray washing device capable of spraying from four directions: up, down, left, and right. The linear conveyor type basin washing machine disclosed in this utility model has a simple and reasonable structural design, good cleaning effect, high cleaning efficiency, and convenient operation. However, this device only has a washing function. If the washed feed basins are not dried before use, dust will adhere to their outer walls when placed on the ground, and the clumps will be difficult to clean. Therefore, they still need to be air-dried or manually wiped dry after washing, which still consumes some manpower and time. Thus, the existing washing device still needs improvement. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an automatic calf basin cleaning device that cleans and dries the calf basin, reducing workload and saving drying time.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: an automatic calf basin cleaning device, including a frame, on which a hollow machine platform is fixedly connected. A working chamber and a bottom chamber are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the machine platform, respectively. An inlet and an outlet are respectively opened at the front and rear ends of the working chamber. The calf basin is placed on the machine platform. A conveying mechanism is provided inside the machine platform to move the calf basin from the inlet to the outlet. The working chamber has a cleaning chamber, a drying chamber, and a drying cavity arranged sequentially from front to back. The bottom chamber has a water storage chamber and an equipment chamber arranged sequentially from front to back. The cleaning chamber and the water storage chamber are positioned vertically opposite each other. Drainage holes connecting the cleaning chamber and the water storage chamber are provided at the top and bottom of the machine. The cleaning chamber is equipped with a spray assembly for cleaning the calf basin, and the water storage chamber is equipped with a water pump for supplying water to the spray assembly. The side wall of the water storage chamber is equipped with an inlet pipe, a drain pipe, and an overflow pipe. The drying chamber is positioned vertically opposite to the equipment chamber. Several purge pipes are arranged in the drying chamber along the front-to-back direction. Several air compressors are installed in the equipment chamber, and the air compressors and purge pipes are connected in a corresponding manner. Several electric heating tubes are arranged in the drying chamber along the front-to-back direction.

[0005] In this system, a conveyor mechanism moves the calf troughs placed on the machine platform. The troughs enter through the inlet, pass through a washing chamber, an air-drying chamber, and a drying chamber, and exit through the outlet. In the washing chamber, the troughs are rinsed by a spray system. In the air-drying chamber, a blowpipe removes most of the moisture adhering to the outer wall of the trough, achieving initial drying. In the drying chamber, an electric heating element further dries the outer wall, ensuring the troughs are essentially dry. This saves significant manpower and drying time, improving the drying efficiency of the calf troughs.

[0006] As an optimization, the conveying mechanism includes two sprockets distributed on the front and rear sides of the working chamber. The two sprockets are rotatably connected to the machine base, and their central axes are horizontally positioned in the left-right direction. A drive motor is installed on the machine base to drive the sprockets. A conveying chain is fitted onto the two sprockets. Several levers are evenly distributed along the length of the conveying chain on its outer side. A long through-hole extending in the front-back direction is opened at the top of the machine base. The levers located at the top of the conveying chain pass through the long through-hole and push the feed trough to move. In this optimized solution, the rotation of the two sprockets drives the rotation of the conveying chain, causing the levers to move with the conveying chain, thereby pushing the calf trough to move.

[0007] As an optimization, the working chamber is equipped with two limiting rods extending in the front-to-back direction. The front and rear ends of the limiting rods extend to the outer sides of the inlet and outlet, respectively. The two limiting rods are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the conveyor chain, forming a limiting space between them to clamp the calf bowl. This optimized solution uses two limiting rods to clamp and limit the calf bowl, preventing it from moving left or right and ensuring smooth movement.

[0008] As an optimization, the spray assembly includes a left water pipe, an upper water pipe, a right water pipe, and a lower water pipe connected sequentially in a circumferential direction. The upper water pipe is located above the conveyor chain and extends in a left-right direction. The lower water pipe is located between the chain loops of the conveyor chain and extends in a left-right direction. The left and right water pipes are vertically dark in color and are located on the left and right sides of the conveyor chain, respectively. The lower end of the left water pipe is connected to a water pump. Several cleaning pipes extending in a front-back direction are connected to the left, upper, right, and lower water pipes. The cleaning pipes are equipped with spray nozzles facing the calf basin. The top of the machine platform has a rinsing hole corresponding to the cleaning pipe connected to the lower water pipe, and the rinsing hole extends in a front-back direction. This optimized solution uses a loop water supply system consisting of a left water supply pipe, an upper water supply pipe, a right water supply pipe, and a lower water supply pipe. Each of these pipes is connected to a cleaning pipe, allowing for rinsing of the calf's trough from all sides, thus improving rinsing efficiency and cleaning effectiveness.

[0009] As an optimization, the purge pipe is fixed to the top of the drying chamber and extends in the left-right direction. One end of the purge pipe is closed, and the other end is connected to the output port of the air compressor through an air duct. The purge pipe is equipped with multiple air nozzles facing the calf. This optimized solution has multiple air nozzles on one purge pipe, which improves purge efficiency and drying effect.

[0010] As an optimization, the plurality of electric heating tubes include side heating tubes fixed to the left and right side walls of the drying chamber and upper heating tubes fixed to the top of the drying chamber, with the side heating tubes and upper heating tubes distributed at intervals. This optimized solution improves the drying effect by using the upper heating tubes and side heating tubes to dry the outer wall of the calf basin circumferentially.

[0011] As an optimization, observation windows are provided on the side walls of the cleaning chamber, air-drying chamber, and drying chamber. This optimization facilitates observation of the internal condition of each chamber.

[0012] As an optimization, an inspection port is provided on the side wall of the equipment cavity, and an inspection door is installed on the inspection port. This optimization facilitates the inspection and maintenance of the internal equipment.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: A conveying mechanism moves the calf basin placed on the machine platform. The basin enters through the inlet, passes through the washing chamber, air-drying chamber, and drying chamber sequentially, and exits through the outlet. In the washing chamber, the basin is rinsed by a spray system. In the air-drying chamber, a blowpipe dries the basin, with high-pressure airflow from an air compressor removing most of the moisture adhering to the outer wall, achieving initial drying. In the drying chamber, an electric heating element further dries the outer wall, resulting in a basically dry outer wall. This saves significant manpower and drying time, improving the drying efficiency of the calf basin. Attached Figure Description

[0023] To clearly illustrate the technical features of this solution, the following section describes the solution through a specific implementation structure.

[0024] like Figures 1-7 As shown, an automatic calf basin cleaning device includes a frame 1, on which a hollow machine platform 2 is fixedly connected. A working chamber 3 and a bottom chamber 4 are fixedly connected to the top and bottom of the machine platform 2, respectively. In this embodiment, the machine platform 2 extends in a front-to-back direction, and the working chamber 3 and the bottom chamber 4 also extend in a front-to-back direction.

[0025] The working chamber 3 has an inlet 31 and an outlet 32 ​​at its front and rear ends, respectively. The calf trough is placed on the machine platform 2, which is equipped with a conveying mechanism 5 that moves the calf trough from the inlet 31 to the outlet 32. The conveying mechanism 5 moves the calf trough placed on the machine platform 2 backward, so that the calf trough is input from the inlet 31 and output from the outlet 32.

[0026] Specifically, the conveying mechanism 5 includes two sprockets 51 distributed on the front and rear sides of the working chamber 3. The two sprockets 51 are rotatably connected to the machine base 2, and the central axis of the sprockets 51 is horizontally arranged in the left-right direction. The machine base 2 is equipped with a drive motor 20 to drive the sprockets 51 to rotate. A conveying chain 52 is sleeved on the two sprockets 51, and several levers 53 are evenly distributed along the length of the outer side of the conveying chain 52. The top of the machine base 2 has an elongated through hole 23 extending in the front-back direction. The levers 53 located at the top of the conveying chain 52 pass through the elongated through hole 23 and push the feed trough to move. In this embodiment, the machine base 2 has elongated through holes 23 at both the top and bottom. The rotation of the two sprockets drives the rotation of the conveying chain, thereby causing the levers to move with the conveying chain. The levers pass through the elongated through holes and thus push the calf trough to move.

[0027] Specifically, the working chamber 3 is equipped with two limiting rods 6 extending in the front-to-back direction. The front and rear ends of the limiting rods 6 extend to the outer sides of the inlet 31 and the outlet 32, respectively. The two limiting rods 6 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the conveyor chain 52, and a limiting space for clamping the calf bowl is formed between the two limiting rods 6. In this embodiment, the limiting rod 6 on the left side is fixed to the left side wall of the inlet 31 and the outlet 32, and the limiting rod 6 on the right side is fixed to the right side wall of the inlet 31 and the outlet 32. The distance between the two limiting rods 6 is adapted to the outer diameter of the calf bowl. The calf bowl is clamped and limited by the two limiting rods 6 to prevent the calf bowl from swaying from side to side, so that the calf bowl can move smoothly backward in a straight line.

[0028] The working chamber 3 is provided with a washing chamber 35, a drying chamber 36, and a drying chamber 37 arranged sequentially from front to back. The bottom chamber 4 is provided with a water storage chamber 41 and an equipment chamber 42 arranged sequentially from front to back. Specifically, in this embodiment, two first partitions 33 are arranged along the front-to-back direction in the working chamber 3, which divide the inner cavity of the working chamber 3 into a washing chamber, a drying chamber, and a drying chamber. Each of the two first partitions 33 has an opening 34 opposite to the inlet 31 and the outlet 32. The inlet 31, the opening 34, and the outlet 32 ​​are located on a central axis, so that after the calf bowl is input from the inlet 31, it passes through the opening 34 and the first partition 33, so that the calf bowl passes through the washing chamber, the drying chamber, and the drying chamber in sequence, and is output from the outlet. In this embodiment, a second partition 43 is fixedly connected inside the bottom compartment 4, which divides the bottom compartment 4 into a water storage chamber 41 and an equipment chamber 42. The second partition 43 has a through hole 431 for the lever 53 to pass through. The water storage chamber is used to store water, and the equipment chamber is used to place equipment.

[0029] Preferably, in this embodiment, soft curtains 19 are installed on the inlet 31, opening 34 and outlet 32. The soft curtains 19 make the washing chamber 35, the air drying chamber 36 and the drying chamber 37 each form an independent space, thereby improving the sealing of each chamber.

[0030] The cleaning chamber 35 and the water storage chamber 41 are vertically opposite each other. The top and bottom of the machine platform 2 have drain holes 24 connecting the cleaning chamber 35 and the water storage chamber 41. The cleaning chamber 35 is equipped with a spray assembly 7 for cleaning the calf basin, and the water storage chamber 41 is equipped with a water pump 8 for supplying water to the spray assembly 7. The side wall of the water storage chamber 41 is equipped with an inlet pipe 18, a drain pipe 16, and an overflow pipe 17. Thus, when the calf basin enters the cleaning chamber 35 and is rinsed by the spray assembly 7, the rinsing water flows back into the water storage chamber 41 through the drain holes 24, achieving recycling. In this embodiment, the inlet pipe 18 is fixed to the top of the side wall of the water storage chamber 41, the drain pipe 16 is fixed to the bottom of the side wall of the water storage chamber 41, and the overflow pipe 17 is fixed to the top of the side wall of the water storage chamber 41. The horizontal height of the overflow pipe 17 is lower than the horizontal height of the bottom of the perforation 431 on the second partition 43, to prevent water from flowing into the equipment cavity 42 through the perforation 431. Water is injected into the water storage chamber through the inlet pipe and drained through the drain pipe. Switch valves are installed on the inlet pipe, the drain pipe, and the overflow pipe.

[0031] Specifically, the spray assembly 7 includes a left water pipe 71, an upper water pipe 72, a right water pipe 73, and a lower water pipe 74 connected sequentially in the circumferential direction. The upper water pipe 72 is located above the conveyor chain 52 and extends in the left-right direction. The lower water pipe 74 is located between the chain loops of the conveyor chain 52 and extends in the left-right direction. The left water pipe 71 and the right water pipe 73 extend vertically and are located on the left and right sides of the conveyor chain 52, respectively. The lower end of the left water pipe 71 is connected to the water pump 8. Several cleaning pipes 75 extending in the front-back direction are connected to the left water pipe 71, the upper water pipe 72, the right water pipe 73, and the lower water pipe 74. The cleaning pipes 75 are equipped with spray nozzles facing the calf basin. The top of the machine platform 2 is provided with a flushing hole 21 corresponding to the cleaning pipe 75 connected to the lower water pipe 74. The flushing hole 21 extends in the front-back direction. A ring-shaped water supply pipeline is formed by the left, upper, right, and lower water supply pipes. In this embodiment, the water supply pipeline is located at the front of the cleaning chamber 35. The cleaning pipes 75 connected to the left, upper, right, and lower water supply pipes all extend rearward to the rear of the cleaning chamber. The spray nozzle of the cleaning pipe connected to the left water supply pipe faces to the right, the spray nozzle of the cleaning pipe connected to the right water supply pipe faces to the left, the spray nozzle of the cleaning pipe connected to the upper water supply pipe faces downward, and the spray nozzle of the cleaning pipe connected to the lower water supply pipe faces upward. This allows the calf trough to be rinsed from all sides as it moves backward, improving rinsing efficiency and cleaning effect.

[0032] The drying chamber 36 is vertically opposite to the equipment chamber 42. Several purge pipes 9 are arranged along the front-to-back direction inside the drying chamber 36. Several air compressors 11 are installed inside the equipment chamber 42, and the air compressors 11 and purge pipes 9 are connected one-to-one. When the calf trough continues to move backward through the drying chamber 36 after being rinsed by the washing chamber 35, it is purged and dried by the purge pipes 9. The high-pressure airflow provided by the air compressors 11 blows away most of the moisture adhering to the outer wall of the calf trough, achieving initial drying of the outer wall of the calf trough.

[0033] In this embodiment, a guide plate 22 is fixedly connected inside the machine base 2, located below the drying chamber 36. The guide plate 22 is located between the chain rings of the conveyor chain 52. The left and right ends of the guide plate 22 are fixedly connected to the left and right inner walls of the machine base 2. The rear end of the guide plate 22 extends to the bottom of the drying chamber 37, and the front end of the guide plate 22 is inclined downward and extends to the top of the water storage chamber 41. This allows the water blown down in the drying chamber 36 to flow onto the guide plate 22 through the elongated through hole 23. The water is then guided by the guide plate 22 to the top of the water storage chamber 41 and flows into the water storage chamber 41 through the drain hole 24 at the bottom of the machine base 2, thereby preventing water from flowing into the equipment cavity 42.

[0034] Specifically, the purge pipe 9 is fixed to the top of the drying chamber 36 and extends in the left-right direction. One end of the purge pipe 9 is closed, and the other end is connected to the output port of the air compressor 11 through the air duct 10. The purge pipe 9 is equipped with multiple air nozzles facing the calf basin. The multiple air nozzles on the purge pipe 9 improve the purge efficiency and the drying effect. In this embodiment, three purge pipes 9 are arranged from front to back in the drying chamber 36, and three air compressors 11 are installed in the equipment chamber 42 to deliver high-pressure airflow to the three purge pipes 9 respectively.

[0035] Several electric heating tubes are arranged along the front-to-back direction inside the drying chamber 37. Specifically, the several electric heating tubes include side heating tubes 13 fixed to the left and right side walls of the drying chamber 37 and upper heating tubes 12 fixed to the top of the drying chamber 37. Multiple side heating tubes 13 and upper heating tubes 12 are arranged in the front-to-back direction, with the multiple side heating tubes 13 and upper heating tubes 12 spaced apart. When the calf trough moves backward through the drying chamber 37 after initial air drying in the air-drying chamber 36, the upper heating tubes 12 and side heating tubes 13 further dry the outer wall of the calf trough, thus achieving basic drying of the outer wall of the calf trough. This saves a significant amount of manpower and drying time, improving the drying efficiency of the calf trough.

[0036] Preferably, the side walls of the cleaning chamber 35, the air-drying chamber 36 and the drying chamber 37 are provided with observation windows 14 to facilitate observation of the internal state of each chamber.

[0037] Preferably, an inspection port is provided on the side wall of the equipment cavity 42, and an inspection door 15 is installed on the inspection port to facilitate the inspection and maintenance of the internal equipment.

[0038] Working principle: During use, the drive motor 20 drives the sprocket 51 to rotate, which in turn drives the conveyor chain 52 to rotate, causing the lever 53 to move along with the conveyor chain 52. The calf bowl is placed at the inlet 31 of the machine platform 2, and the calf bowl is placed upside down on the lever 53. The lever 53 moves with the conveyor chain 52, thereby moving the calf bowl backward through the washing chamber 35, the air-drying chamber 36, and the drying chamber 37 before being output from the outlet 32. When passing through the washing chamber 35, the water pump 8 delivers water from the water storage chamber 41 to the spray assembly 7, which washes the calf bowl from top to bottom and left to right. The washing water flows back to the water storage chamber 41 through the drain hole 24 for recycling. As the calf trough moves backward through the washing chamber 35 and then through the drying chamber 36, it is further dried by blowing through the blowpipe 9. The high-pressure airflow provided by the air compressor 11 blows away most of the moisture adhering to the outer wall of the calf trough, achieving initial drying. After initial drying in the drying chamber 36, the calf trough continues to move backward through the drying chamber 37, where the upper heating pipe 12 and the side heating pipe 13 further dry the outer wall of the calf trough, resulting in a basically dry outer wall. This saves a significant amount of manpower and drying time, improving the drying efficiency of the calf trough.
