Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of breeding tools technology, and in particular relates to a movable chicken coop group breeding cage. Background Technology
[0002] In the process of raising poultry chickens, it is necessary to use breeding cages to facilitate breeding management. Keeping the chickens in the cages not only prevents them from getting lost, but also makes it easier to feed and manage them.
[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN220936242U discloses a mobile, towable chicken coop. When the coop and chickens are placed in one location for three days, the chickens fertilize the soil by eating weeds and insects, pecking at the ground with their beaks, raking it with their claws, and using their droppings as fertilizer. This achieves the effect of cultivating the land, avoiding the problem of chickens overgrazing the soil in fixed coops, and saving labor. However, this chicken coop still has some defects and shortcomings in practical use: during the breeding process, chickens vary in size due to development and individual differences, but the aforementioned chicken coop does not have the function of group rearing, making it inconvenient to manage and scientifically feed the chickens, which is detrimental to their healthy growth.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve existing mobile towed chicken houses and provide a mobile chicken house grouping cage that facilitates the grouping and management of chicken flocks. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a reasonably designed, simple, and portable chicken coop grouping cage that facilitates the grouping and management of chicken flocks, thereby solving the problems existing in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A movable chicken coop grouping cage includes at least two breeding cages. Each cage includes a cage body and uprights fixed at four right angles. A feeding trough is installed at the front bottom of the cage body, and a door frame assembly is installed at the middle of the rear end of the cage body. The bottom of the cage body has a bottom frame fixed to multiple uprights. Several connecting rods are fixed at equal intervals along the length of the bottom inner side of the bottom end of the bottom frame. The bottom outer wall of each upright has a slot for mounting a tray, which is located directly below the bottom frame. A bracket is fixedly installed on the bottom side of the upright opposite to the slot, and a self-locking caster wheel is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the bracket. Each of the multiple uprights has a docking post fixed to its bottom. A limit groove is opened on the outer wall of the left rear docking post. Each of the multiple uprights has a docking hole adapted to the docking post inside its top. A sliding groove is opened on the outer wall of the top of the left rear upright, and a positioning component is provided on the inner side of the sliding groove.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the cage is open, and the bottom frame is inclined at an angle of 10° below the cage.
[0009] Preferably, the length of the feeding trough is greater than the length of the cage.
[0010] Preferably, the feeding trough is fixed with clamps on the side of the cage body at both ends, and the two clamps are respectively fixedly installed on the left and right uprights.
[0011] Preferably, the positioning assembly includes an arc-shaped rod, a slider, a spring, a fixed post, and a handle. The arc-shaped rod is fixedly installed on the inner side of the slide groove, and the centers of the arc-shaped rod, the slide groove, and the docking hole coincide with each other. The slider is engaged and slidably located within the slide groove and is slidably sleeved on the outer side of one end of the arc-shaped rod. A spring is movably sleeved on the outer side of the other end of the arc-shaped rod. The two ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the slider and the post, respectively. A fixed post is fixed on the inner wall of the slider, and a handle is fixed on the outer wall of the slider.
[0012] Preferably, the end of the fixed column away from the slider is guided and slidably located in the limiting groove. The limiting groove is divided into a horizontal section, an inclined section and a vertical section from top to bottom. The horizontal section, the inclined section and the vertical section are interconnected, and the bottom end of the vertical section is opened on the bottom end surface of the docking column.
[0013] Preferably, the door frame assembly includes a door panel, an interceptor bar, and bolts. The bottom end of the door panel is connected to the cage body via a hinge. The interceptor bar is mounted on the outer wall at the rear top of the cage body. The bottom end of the interceptor bar is internally threaded with bolts. The door panel has through holes that are compatible with the bolts.
[0014] Preferably, the tray is detachably installed among the multiple columns, and a handle is fixedly installed on the left outer wall of the tray.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] In this invention, a suitable number of breeding cages can be installed in a vertically stacked manner according to actual needs, which facilitates the grouping and management of chickens according to age, size and other conditions, making it easier to achieve scientific feeding and high breeding efficiency. In addition, each breeding cage has a self-locking universal wheel installed at the bottom of its upright, which facilitates the convenient movement of the device and makes it easy to use.
[0017] In the installation of breeding cages, this utility model allows multiple docking posts at the bottom of one breeding cage to be inserted into the docking holes at the top of multiple upright posts of another breeding cage. At this time, one end of the fixing post can first enter the bottom vertical section of the limiting groove on the outer wall of the docking post. As the docking post moves down, the inclined section of the limiting groove can squeeze the fixing post, causing the fixing post to be compressed and drive the slider to slide along the arc-shaped rod. When the fixing post enters the top horizontal section of the limiting groove, the slider and the fixing post can lose the compression and be reset by the spring, making it easy for the fixing post to be stably engaged with the docking post through the horizontal section of the limiting groove. This achieves a stable docking installation between the two breeding cages, achieving the technical effects of quick installation and easy disassembly.
