Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of chicken cage technology, and in particular to a chicken cage with a convenient door that is easy to close. Background Technology

[0002] Chicken and eggs are both popular foods with high consumption, resulting in a large-scale chicken farming industry. Chicken farming methods can be divided into free-range and cage-raised chickens. Cage-raised chickens have the advantages of requiring less space, being easier to manage, and preventing escape. Current chicken cages typically use latches to lock the doors. To open the door, the latch needs to be pulled outwards, and to lock it, it needs to be aligned with the latch hole and then inserted again, which is somewhat inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a chicken coop with a convenient door that addresses the above-mentioned technical deficiencies.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a chicken cage with a convenient door, including a cage body, an opening on one side of the cage body, a cage door hinged to one side of the opening, a locking plate on the other side of the opening, an arc-shaped groove on the locking plate, a fixing plate on one side of the cage door, a shaft cylinder on the top of the fixing plate, the shaft cylinder being coaxial with the groove after the cage door is closed, a shaft rod on the locking mechanism being rotatably connected to the shaft cylinder, a swing arm perpendicular to the shaft rod at one end, a stop block at the end of the swing arm away from the shaft rod, the side of the stop block away from the shaft rod being an arc surface, and a handle at the other end of the shaft rod.

[0005] To further optimize this technical solution, the handle includes a horizontal arm perpendicular to the shaft, and a vertical arm perpendicular to the horizontal arm at the other end. A support arm is provided at the lower end of the vertical arm, and the support arm and the horizontal arm are located on the same side of the vertical arm.

[0006] To further optimize this technical solution, the fixing plate is also provided with a baffle to prevent the side of the cage door with the fixing plate from recessing into the cage body.

[0007] To further optimize this technical solution, feeding trough supports are provided on both sides of the front side of the cage.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: a locking plate is provided on the cage body, and an arc-shaped groove is provided on the locking plate. A fixing plate is provided on the cage door. The shaft on the locking mechanism is rotatably connected to the shaft cylinder on the fixing plate. A swing arm is provided at one end of the shaft and a handle is provided at the other end. A stop block is provided at the end of the swing arm away from the shaft. Turning the handle upward can open the cage door, and pushing the side of the cage door with the fixing plate inward can close the cage door, which is more convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0013] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0014] Detailed implementation method: combined with Figure 1-3 As shown, a chicken coop with a convenient closing door includes a cage body 1. One side of the cage body 1 has an opening, and one side of the cage door 2 is hinged to the opening. A locking plate 11 is provided on the other side of the opening. The locking plate 11 has an arc-shaped groove. A fixing plate 21 is provided on one side of the cage door 2, and a shaft cylinder 211 is provided on the fixing plate 21. Preferably, the shaft cylinder 211 is located at the top of the fixing plate 21. After the cage door 2 is closed, the shaft cylinder 211 is coaxial with the groove on the locking plate 11. A shaft 221 on the locking mechanism 22... Rotarily connected to the shaft cylinder 211, one end of the shaft 221 is provided with a swing arm 222 perpendicular to it. The end of the swing arm 222 away from the shaft 221 is provided with a stop block 223. The side of the stop block 223 away from the shaft 221 is an arc surface, the radius of which is slightly smaller than the radius of the groove on the lock plate 11. The other end of the shaft 221 is provided with a handle. When the cage door 2 is closed, in its natural state (at which time the handle is supported by the fixing plate 21), the bottom of the stop block 223 is lower than the top of the lock plate 11. Figure 1As shown, when opening the door, pinch the handle and rotate it upwards so that the bottom of the stop 223 is higher than the top of the lock plate 11. Then pull the cage door 2 outwards. When closing the door, push the left side of the cage door 2 forward. When the stop 223 contacts the side of the lock plate 11 away from the cage body 1, the swing arm 222 and the handle rotate counterclockwise. When the bottom of the stop 223 is higher than the top of the lock plate 11, the stop 223 comes above the groove. Under the action of gravity, the handle rotates clockwise, and the lower part of the stop 223 enters the groove on the lock plate 11. At this time, the cage door 2 cannot open outwards by itself (because when the cage door 2 turns outwards, the handle will be blocked by the fixing plate 21).

[0015] The handle can be a straight rod, but a straight rod is inconvenient to grip with the hand. Preferably, the handle includes a horizontal arm 224 perpendicular to the shaft 221, and a vertical arm 225 perpendicular to the horizontal arm 224 at the other end. A support arm 226 is provided at the lower end of the vertical arm 225, and the support arm 226 and the horizontal arm 224 are located on the same side of the vertical arm 225. When the lower part of the stop block 223 enters the groove on the locking plate 11, the support arm 226 contacts the fixing plate 21.

[0016] Furthermore, the fixing plate 21 is also provided with a baffle 212 to prevent the side of the cage door 2 with the fixing plate 21 from recessing into the cage body 1. Without the baffle 212, the side of the cage door 2 with the fixing plate 21 may sink inward into the cage body 1 until the swing arm 222 contacts the front side of the cage body 1. The presence of the baffle 212 avoids the above situation.

[0017] Furthermore, feed trough supports 3 are provided on both sides of the front side of the cage 1 to hold chicken feed troughs.

[0018] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
