Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of egg-laying hen breeding technology, specifically relating to a water feeding device for egg-laying hen chicken houses. Background Technology

[0002] Laying hens are chickens raised specifically for egg production. Unlike broiler chickens, laying hens are raised in high-density cages in chicken houses. Water access is limited, and to ensure efficient watering, long, narrow water troughs are fixed to the side of the cages. However, chickens easily throw droppings, feathers, and other debris into the troughs, affecting their drinking. If the water isn't changed regularly, bacteria will grow, increasing the disease rate in the chickens. Current technology uses long, narrow water troughs for feeding chickens. To ensure cleanliness and reduce disease, farm workers must clean the troughs daily, removing feathers, leftover feed, and droppings. This cleaning is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the problems of the long, narrow water troughs used in the prior art, which require daily cleaning by staff to remove chicken feathers, leftover feed, and manure, resulting in low efficiency and time-consuming work, this utility model provides a water feeding device for layer chicken farms. Water is supplied through multiple nipple drinkers 5 distributed along the water supply pipe 3, meeting the water requirements of high-density farming. Simultaneously, it avoids the water pollution problems associated with long, narrow water troughs, ensuring clean and hygienic drinking water and reducing disease incidence. No manual cleaning is required, reducing labor intensity and costs. Furthermore, a water collection hopper 8 catches any dripping water from the chickens, preventing water from mixing with chicken manure and causing fermentation and bacterial growth, effectively ensuring the hygiene of the chicken farm.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: A water feeding device for layer hen chicken houses mainly includes a water feeding device for layer hen chicken houses, characterized in that: the water feeding device for layer hen chicken houses includes a horizontal support rod 1, a connecting arm 2, a water supply pipe 3, a U-shaped buckle 4, a chicken nipple drinker 5, a water collection pipe 6, a mounting base 7, and a water receiving hopper 8. The horizontal support rod 1 is installed on the breeding cage through the connecting arm 2, and the water supply pipe 3 is connected to the U-shaped buckle 4. The buckle 4 is suspended on the horizontal support rod 1. The chicken nipple drinkers 5 are evenly installed on the water supply pipe 3. The chicken nipple drinkers 5 are connected to the water supply pipe 3. The water supply pipe 3 is connected to the water supply system in the chicken house. The water collection pipe 6 is installed on the breeding cage through the mounting base 7. The water collection pipe 6 is located below the water supply pipe 3. The water hoppers 8 are evenly installed on the water collection pipe 6. The water hoppers 8 are connected to the water collection pipe 6. The water hoppers 8 are located below the chicken nipple drinkers 5. The water collection pipe 6 is connected to the wastewater collection pool in the chicken house.

[0005] Furthermore, the chicken nipple drinker 5 is installed at a downward angle.

[0006] Furthermore, the water receiving hopper 8 and the water collecting pipe 6 are connected by a thin pipe 9.

[0007] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0008] This invention utilizes multiple nipple drinkers distributed along the water supply pipe to provide water for chickens, meeting the water requirements of high-density farming. It avoids the water pollution problems associated with long, narrow water troughs, ensuring clean and hygienic drinking water and reducing disease incidence. No manual cleaning is required, reducing labor intensity and costs. Furthermore, a drip tray catches any water leaking from the chickens, preventing it from mixing with chicken manure and causing fermentation and bacterial growth, thus effectively maintaining chicken coop hygiene. The design also minimizes water waste. Attached Figure Description

[0012] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the preferred embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to facilitate the understanding of those skilled in the art.

[0013] This utility model discloses a watering device for layer hen chicken houses. The device mainly includes a horizontal support rod 1, a connecting arm 2, a water supply pipe 3, a U-shaped buckle 4, chicken nipple drinkers 5, a water collection pipe 6, a mounting base 7, and a water receiving hopper 8. The horizontal support rod 1 is installed on the breeding cage via the connecting arm 2. The water supply pipe 3 is suspended from the horizontal support rod 1 via the U-shaped buckle 4. The chicken nipple drinkers 5 are evenly installed on the water supply pipe 3 and are connected to the water supply pipe 3, which is connected to the water supply system inside the chicken house. The water collection pipe 6 is installed on the breeding cage via the mounting base 7, positioned below the water supply pipe 3. The water receiving hopper 8 is evenly installed on the water collection pipe. The water hopper 8 is connected to the water collection pipe 6, and the water hopper 8 is located below the chicken nipple drinkers 5. The water collection pipe 6 is connected to the wastewater collection pool in the chicken house. Water is supplied through multiple chicken nipple drinkers 5 distributed along the water supply pipe 3, meeting the water requirements of high-density farming. At the same time, it avoids the water pollution problem that occurs when using long strip water troughs, ensuring clean and hygienic drinking water and reducing the occurrence of diseases. No manual cleaning is required, reducing the labor intensity of employees and reducing labor costs. At the same time, the water hopper 8 catches the water that drips when the chickens drink water, preventing water from dripping into the chicken house and mixing with chicken manure, which would cause fermentation and bacterial growth, effectively ensuring the hygiene of the chicken house. The design for dripping water reduces water waste.

[0014] In this embodiment, the chicken nipple drinker 5 is installed at a downward angle. The inclined installation of the chicken nipple drinker 5 is conducive to the chicken taking water and improves the chicken's water taking efficiency.

[0015] In this embodiment, the water receiving hopper 8 and the water collecting pipe 6 are connected by a thin pipe 9. Connecting the water receiving hopper 8 and the water collecting pipe 6 by the thin pipe 9 can prevent water from accumulating in the water receiving hopper 8 and prevent chickens from taking water from the water receiving hopper 8.

[0016] Work process:

[0017] Water is supplied to chickens via multiple nipple drinkers 5 distributed along the water supply pipe 3, meeting the water requirements of high-density farming. This avoids water pollution problems associated with long, narrow water troughs, ensuring clean and hygienic drinking water and reducing disease incidence. No manual cleaning is required, reducing labor intensity and costs. Furthermore, water drips from the chickens are collected by the water collection hopper 8, preventing water from mixing with chicken manure and causing fermentation and bacterial growth, thus effectively maintaining chicken house hygiene. The design also minimizes water waste by controlling drips. A thin pipe 9 connects the water collection hopper 8 to the water collection pipe 6, preventing water accumulation in the water collection hopper 8 and avoiding chickens drinking water from inside it.

[0018] Finally, it should be noted that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made to it in form and detail without departing from the scope defined by the claims of this utility model.
