Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to incubation equipment, and more specifically, to a chick positioning device. Background Technology

[0002] After the chicks are transferred from the hatchery separation workshop to the vaccine workshop, they need to be vaccinated. For example... Figure 1 As shown, when vaccinating chicks, the chick's head needs to be manually placed in the chick head positioning slot 1, thus hanging it on the vaccine injection machine 2. After the chick is suspended, the positioning blocks on both sides of the chick head positioning slot 1 rotate to position the chick's head within it. Then, the vaccine injection machine 2 rotates, moving the chick head positioning slot 1 with the suspended chick to the side of the pneumatic injector 3. After it is moved into place, the cylinder drives the positioning plate 4 to move towards the vaccine injection machine 2 to press and position the chick's body. Finally, the pneumatic injector 3 moves towards the chick to complete the vaccine injection. However, the existing positioning plate 4 is an L-shaped bent plate with a chick positioning opening that gradually increases in width. Although its front opening is large enough that the edge of the opening will not touch the chick, the chick will struggle while suspended. When the positioning plate 4 touches the chick, it will cause a rigid collision, which is not conducive to protecting the chick. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a chick positioning device that addresses the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0009] Beneficial effects

[0010] The advantages of this invention are as follows: A V-shaped spring and a telescopic component connected to the spring are installed at the chick positioning port of the mounting base. The telescopic component acts as a compression buffer for the chick, solving the problem of rigid collisions affecting the chicks in existing technologies.

Detailed Implementation

[0015] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments, but this does not constitute any limitation on the present invention. Any limited modifications made by any person within the scope of the claims of the present invention are still within the scope of the claims of the present invention.

[0016] See Figures 2-3 This utility model discloses a chick positioning device, comprising a mounting base 5 and a connecting plate 19. The mounting base 5 and the connecting plate 19 are fixedly connected and arranged perpendicularly to form an L-shape. The connecting plate 19 is connected to the piston end of a cylinder. The mounting base 5 has a chick positioning opening 20 with gradually increasing width. A V-shaped spring piece 15 is provided in the chick positioning opening 20. The two ends of the open end of the V-shaped spring piece 15 respectively contact the two side walls of the chick positioning opening 20. A gap 11 is provided between the end of the V-shaped spring piece 15 away from its open end and the chick positioning opening 20. In this way, when the chick is squeezed and positioned, the two ends of the open end of the V-shaped spring piece 15 are deformed and moved inward, thereby achieving a better squeezing and positioning effect on the chick. The mounting base 5 has an installation channel 9 that communicates with the chick positioning port 20. A telescopic component 10 is installed in the installation channel 9, and the end of the telescopic component 10 is fixedly connected to a V-shaped spring piece 15. The mounting base 5 also has an installation cavity 6 that communicates with the installation channel 9. Due to the gap 11 and the telescopic component 10, the V-shaped spring piece 15 can move towards the bottom of the chick positioning port 20 when it comes into contact with the chick. Simultaneously, the telescopic component 10 provides compression and buffering for the chick, solving the problem of rigid collisions affecting the chicks in existing technologies.

[0017] In this embodiment, the mounting cavity 6 is provided with a position adjustment component connected to the telescopic member 10. This allows adjustment of the width of the gap 11, thereby adjusting the opening degree of the V-shaped spring 15. For example, when the gap 11 becomes larger, the V-shaped spring 15 moves outward along the chick positioning opening 20, making the opening degree of the V-shaped spring 15 larger; conversely, it becomes smaller.

[0018] Specifically, the position adjustment assembly includes a mounting plate 7, a bolt 17, and a locking nut 18. The mounting plate 7 is slidably installed in the mounting cavity 6. The mounting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the telescopic component 10 via a connecting rod 16. The mounting base 5 has a threaded hole communicating with the mounting cavity 6. The bolt 17 is screwed into the threaded hole and is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 7. The locking nut 18 is screwed onto the bolt 17. By rotating the bolt 17, the mounting plate 7 can slide within the mounting cavity 6, thereby causing the V-shaped spring 15 to move via the telescopic component 10. The locking nut 18 is mainly used to prevent loosening of the bolt 17.

[0019] In this embodiment, the mounting seats 5 on both sides of the chick positioning port 20 are provided with buffer ends, and buffer plates 14 are provided on the buffer ends. The buffer plates 14 are rubber plates or silicone plates. Each mounting seat 5 on both sides of the chick positioning port 20 has a second mounting channel 12, which extends through the buffer ends. A telescopic component 13 is installed in the second mounting channel 12. One end of the telescopic component 13 is fixedly connected to the buffer plate 14, and the other end of the telescopic component 13 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 7 via a connecting rod 8. The design of the buffer plate 14 and the telescopic component 13 provides buffer protection when the mounting seat 5 comes into contact with the vaccine injection machine 2.

[0020] In this embodiment, both telescopic component 10 and telescopic component 13 consist of a telescopic rod and a spring. The spring is sleeved on the telescopic rod.

[0021] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: A cylinder drives the chick positioning device to move towards the vaccine injection machine 2. After the chick falls into the chick positioning opening 20, when the chick contacts the V-shaped spring 15, the buffer plate 14 simultaneously contacts the outer wall of the vaccine injection machine 2. At this time, the chick blocks the V-shaped spring 15 and pushes it towards the bottom of the chick positioning opening 20. This squeezing force acts on the telescopic member 10, causing it to compress and generate a reverse force to counteract the squeezing force, thus achieving a buffering effect on the chick. Furthermore, during this process, as both ends of the V-shaped spring 15 also move inward along the chick positioning opening 20, the width of the opening of the V-shaped spring 15 decreases, resulting in a better squeezing and positioning effect on the chick, greatly improving the stability of the chick positioning device. Simultaneously, as the buffer plate 14 contacts the outer wall of the vaccine injection machine 2, the telescopic member 13 contracts, generating a force opposite to the collision force between the buffer plate 14 and the vaccine injection machine 2, thus avoiding a rigid collision between the mounting base 5 and the vaccine injection machine 2.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present utility model. These modifications and improvements will not affect the effectiveness of the present utility model or the practicality of the patent.
