Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture technology, and in particular to a foot pedal support. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the livestock industry, many types of farming methods have emerged. For example, chickens can be raised in cages, free-range, netted, or floor-raised. Floor-raised chickens are allowed to move freely on the ground. While this method allows for greater freedom, the chickens still need to be housed to shelter from rainy weather or to lay eggs in their nests.

[0003] Existing chicken houses are generally erected off the ground, which is more in line with the nature of poultry, avoids damp ground conditions, and facilitates pathogen isolation and manure management.

[0004] Traditional chicken coops lack dedicated climbing aids at the entrance, causing poultry to easily experience stress from jumping when entering and exiting. Existing simple support structures mostly use fixed-height structures, which cannot adapt to the different body sizes of chicken breeds and the varying heights of the chicken coop entrance. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, this utility model provides a footrest bracket that is freely adjustable in height and convenient for poultry to grip.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a foot pedal bracket, comprising a bracket and a height adjustment device. The upper part of the bracket is a cylindrical gripping part, which forms a pleated structure through an array of several rings. Both ends of the gripping part are provided with connecting threads, which are fitted with plugs and connectors. The lower part of the bracket is a long plate-shaped connecting part, which engages between two clamping plates at the top of the height adjustment device. The bottom of the clamping plates is fixedly connected to the top of the adjusting column. The lower part of the adjusting column has a spring groove, and an adjusting spring with an outer fixed locking ball is fitted inside the spring groove. The adjusting column is fitted inside the adjusting column, and the locking ball engages with adjusting holes arranged in a longitudinal array on the adjusting column. The bottom of the adjusting column is fixed to the ground.

[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, the bottom of the adjusting column is provided with a circular base, and the base is provided with a plurality of pin holes for inserting pin shafts.

[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, one end of the plug is a cylindrical head, and the other end is a threaded part that matches the connecting thread.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the connector is a fully threaded cylindrical member with a length twice the length of the connecting thread of the gripping part, and the connector can connect two brackets.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the width of the ring body is 0.4cm, and the distance between adjacent ring bodies is 0.8-1.2cm.

[0011] As a further improvement of this utility model, one of the clamping plates is provided with a threaded reinforcing hole, and a fastening bolt is fitted inside the reinforcing hole and abuts against the connecting part.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. The height adjustment device features a built-in spring-loaded locking mechanism, enabling tool-free height adjustment via a push-button design. This allows the device to adapt to different chicken breeds and varying entrance heights in the chicken house. The height adjustment device and bracket are connected via a plug-in joint for easy installation and can be adjusted and installed in any position.

[0014] 2. The design adopts a connector length constraint design (twice the thread length of the bracket) and a fully threaded cylindrical connection structure to ensure that a smooth transition surface is formed at the joint when multiple brackets are spliced, avoiding the risk of poultry webbed feet embedding.

[0015] 3. The gripping part of the support is equipped with pleats, and the width and spacing of the rings forming the pleats are optimized to simulate the curvature of the contact surface between the toes when a chicken claw naturally opens and closes, making it easier to climb.

It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. The directional terms mentioned in the following embodiments, such as up, down, left, right, front, or back, are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for illustrative purposes and not for limiting the present utility model. Furthermore, in all embodiments, the same reference numerals denote the same elements.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 7 The foot pedal bracket shown includes a height adjustment device 2 and a bracket 1.

[0028] The height adjustment device 2 includes a height adjustment column 22, and a circular base 20 is provided at the bottom of the height adjustment column 22. The base 20 has several pin holes 21, which can be fixed to the ground by pins to ensure the stability of the device.

[0029] The adjusting column 22 has several adjusting holes 23, which are arranged in an array along the axial direction of the adjusting column 22.

[0030] An adjusting column 25 is fitted inside the adjusting column 22. A spring groove is formed radially at the lower part of the adjusting column 25. An adjusting spring is installed inside the spring groove, with one end fixedly connected to the spring groove and the other end fixedly connected to a locking ball 24, the outer side of which extends out of the spring groove. The locking ball 24 matches the adjusting hole 23 on the adjusting column 22.

[0031] As a further illustration of this example, by pressing the locking ball 24, the locking ball 24 is adjusted to be located in different adjustment holes 23, thereby achieving height adjustment.

[0032] The top of the adjusting column 25 is provided with a clamping plate assembly, including a first clamping plate 26 and a second clamping plate 28. A gap is left between the first clamping plate 26 and the second clamping plate 28. A reinforcing hole 27 is opened on the first clamping plate 26 along the horizontal direction, and an internal thread is provided in the reinforcing hole 27.

[0033] A bracket 1 is engaged between the first clamping plate 26 and the second clamping plate 28. A fastening screw is fitted inside the reinforcing hole 27, and the inner side of the fastening screw abuts against the bracket 1.

[0034] As a further illustration of this example, the use of a snap-fit ​​method can facilitate the fixing of the height adjustment device 2 and the bracket 1, and the bracket 1 can be further tightened by fastening bolts.

[0035] The lower part of the bracket 1 is a long plate-shaped connecting part 10, which is located between the first clamping plate 26 and the second clamping plate 28. The connecting part 10 of the bracket 1 can be fitted with a height adjustment device 2 at any position as needed.

[0036] The upper part of the bracket 1 is a cylindrical gripping part 12. The connecting part 10 of the bracket 1 is tangent to one side of the gripping part 12 of the bracket 1. The connecting part 10 and the gripping part 12 of the bracket 1 are integrally formed.

[0038] As a further illustration of this example, the pleated structure on the gripping part 12 of the support 1 facilitates the gripping of the chicken feet. The spacing between adjacent rings 13 is more in line with the spacing between the toes of the chicken feet.

[0039] Both ends of the gripping part 12 are provided with connecting threads 11, and plugs 3 and connectors 4 are matched with the connecting threads 11.

[0040] The plug 3 is a PVC part with a cylindrical head at one end and rounded edges, and a columnar threaded part at the other end, which is used to match the connecting thread 11 of the gripping part 12.

[0041] The connector 4 is a fully threaded cylindrical structure. The connector 4 is also made of PVC. The length of the connector 4 is twice the length of the connecting thread 11 of the gripping part 12. The connector 4 matches the connecting thread 11 of the gripping part 12. The two brackets 1 can be connected together through the connector 4.

[0042] As a further illustration of this example, by limiting the length of the connector 4, it can be ensured that when adjacent brackets 1 are fixed together, there is no gap between them, so that the chicken feet will not get stuck and cause injury to the chickens.

[0043] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0044] Based on the width of the chicken coop entrance, connect the support frame 1 using connector 4. After connecting the support frame 1, install the plug 3 at the unconnected end of the support frame 1 to prevent chicken claws from getting stuck in the gripping part 12 of the support frame 1. Then, select the number of height adjustment devices 2 according to the weight of the chickens being raised, adjust the length of the height adjustment devices 2 according to the height of the chicken coop entrance, and fix them to the support frame 1. During fixing, you can choose to install height adjustment devices 2 at the connection points of adjacent support frames 1 for further reinforcement.

[0045] After installation, place the footrest bracket at the entrance of the chicken coop and fix it to the ground with pins. When chickens need to enter the coop, they can first step onto the footrest bracket and then enter the chicken coop.
