Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of factory farming technology for chicks, and in particular to a device that facilitates the adjustment of lighting intensity for chicks. Background Technology
[0002] During the growth and development of chicks, light is one of the most crucial environmental control factors. Specifically:
[0003] Promoting initial adaptation and feeding: Since chicks' vision is not fully developed after hatching, they need strong light stimulation to help them locate feed and water. Therefore, factory farming usually uses a 24-hour constant light program for the first 3 days of brooding to ensure that chicks quickly become familiar with the environment and start feeding.
[0004] Establishing a regular biological rhythm: The duration and intensity of light significantly affect the biological clock of chicks. Scientifically adjusting the light (for example, gradually transitioning from an initial 24 hours to 16-20 hours per day) helps chicks develop regular routines and effectively reduces stress responses caused by sudden changes in light (such as sudden darkness).
[0005] Matching the needs of different growth stages: More importantly, farmers need to dynamically adjust the lighting parameters according to the characteristics of different growth stages of chicks in order to accurately meet their specific physiological and growth needs and optimize overall production performance.
[0006] Because chicks are raised in separate areas, each area contains a certain number of chicks. Therefore, each area needs one or more lighting devices. However, most of these lighting devices have problems. Some devices use fixed-power lamps, which cannot flexibly adjust the light intensity according to the chicks' growth stages, resulting in excessively strong or weak light that affects the chicks' growth and development. Some devices with dimming functions are relatively complex to operate and rely heavily on circuit control. Therefore, we urgently need a device that can easily adjust the intensity of lighting for chicks to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art, such as the inability to adjust lighting devices, the complexity of operation of most dimming devices, and reliance on circuit control, and to propose a device that facilitates the adjustment of lighting intensity for chicks.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0009] A device for adjusting the intensity of lighting for chicks includes a lamp holder and a light bulb that is detachably installed on the lamp holder. It also includes: multiple sets of lampshades 1 and 2 that are detachably installed on the lamp holder, the lampshades 1 and 2 being arranged in a ring-shaped staggered pattern to form a covering area for the light bulb; a cover plate that is rotatably connected to the lamp holder, and the cover plate having a light-transmitting hole, wherein a light-diffusing plate for scattering the light source is fixedly installed in the light-transmitting hole.
[0010] In order to install lampshade one and lampshade two, preferably, the lamp holder is provided with limiting holes arranged in a ring at equal intervals for fixing lampshade one and lampshade two, and the ends of lampshade one and lampshade two are inserted into the limiting holes.
[0011] To provide stability for the installation of lampshade one and lampshade two, a damping pad is further fixedly installed in the limiting hole. When the plug rod is located in the limiting hole, the damping pad abuts against the ends of lampshade one and lampshade two.
[0012] To improve light transmittance, preferably, both lampshade one and lampshade two are made of polycarbonate.
[0013] In order to change the light intensity, the reflectivity of the lampshade is further 70%-80%.
[0014] To provide different light intensities, the reflectivity of the second lampshade is further specified to be in the range of 30%-40%.
[0015] To improve heat dissipation, preferably, the distance between the lampshade one and the lampshade two and the bulb is between 5cm and 10cm.
[0016] In order to achieve the adjustment of light intensity, preferably, the lamp holder is provided with an annular groove, and the end of the cover plate is slidably connected in the annular groove. When the cover plate rotates, the intensity of the light source emitted by the bulb is switched.
[0017] To improve the diffusion of the light source, preferably, the cross-sectional projection shape of the light-diffusing plate is trapezoidal.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a device for easily adjusting the intensity of lighting for chicks, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. This device for adjusting the intensity of lighting for chicks uses two lampshades, one and two, arranged in pairs or triplets, with an alternating design. When the ends of both lampshades are inserted into the limiting holes, a complete lampshade is formed. This lampshade is located outside the bulb, and the reflectivity of lampshades one and two differs, which is used to suppress the light emitted by the bulb, thereby creating different light intensities and facilitating subsequent adjustment of the light intensity.
[0020] 2. This device, which facilitates the adjustment of lighting intensity for chicks, uses light-transmitting holes and a light-expanding plate on the cover. When the cover is rotated, the corresponding light source intensity can be selected using the light-transmitting holes and the light-expanding plate, thus achieving convenient adjustment of lighting intensity. Furthermore, the light-expanding plate is made of acrylic sheet, which has high light transmittance. The light-expanding plate is designed in a trapezoidal shape to enhance the outward diffusion of light, thereby meeting the different light intensity requirements of chicks during their growth.
[0021] The parts of this device not described herein are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies. This utility model makes the lamp easy to adjust and does not rely on circuit control, making it suitable for use in breeding areas. It also improves upon the previous situation where the lamp could not be adjusted for lighting, and further adapts to the growth needs of chicks at different stages. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0028] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Example
[0029] Reference Figures 1-4 A device for adjusting the intensity of lighting for chicks includes a lamp holder 1, which has a threaded hole for connecting to the wall or baffle of the breeding area. The threaded hole is used to install clips or screws so that the lamp holder 1 can be fixed in the corresponding position. The bulb 2 installed on the lamp holder 1 can be removed, thereby realizing convenient installation of the lamp holder 1 and quick change of the position of the lamp holder 1.
[0030] It also includes multiple sets of lampshade 1 3 and lampshade 2 4 that are disassembled and installed on the lamp holder 1. The lamp holder 1 has equidistantly arranged limiting holes 8 for fixing lampshade 1 3 and lampshade 2 4. The ends of lampshade 1 3 and lampshade 2 4 are inserted into the limiting holes 8. A damping pad 9 is fixedly installed in the limiting holes 8. When the insertion rod is located in the limiting hole 8, the damping pad 9 abuts against the ends of lampshade 1 3 and lampshade 2 4. Lampshade 1 3 and lampshade 2 4 are arranged in a staggered ring and form a cover for the bulb 2. In the covered area, the number of lampshade 3 and lampshade 4 are either paired or triplet, and lampshade 3 and lampshade 4 are staggered. When the ends of lampshade 3 and lampshade 4 are inserted into the limiting hole 8, a complete lampshade is formed. The lampshade is located outside the bulb 2, and the reflectivity of lampshade 3 and lampshade 4 is different, which is used to suppress the light source emitted by the bulb 2, thereby forming different light intensities, which facilitates the subsequent adjustment of the light intensity.
[0031] Both lampshade 1 (3) and lampshade 2 (4) are made of polycarbonate. The reflectivity of lampshade 1 (3) is 70%-80%, and the reflectivity of lampshade 2 (4) is 30%-40%. The distance between lampshade 1 (3) and lampshade 2 (4) and bulb 2 is 5cm-10cm. At this distance, polycarbonate has good light transmittance and less light scattering when it passes through, resulting in high visual clarity. After adding UV-resistant additives, polycarbonate can effectively resist ultraviolet radiation, prevent light transmittance from decreasing due to long-term exposure, and extend its service life.
[0032] The reflectivity of the inner surface of the lampshade 3 is preferably 80%, and the transmittance needs to be greater than 80%. When the distance between the lampshade 3 and the bulb 2 is 10cm, the single-group illuminance range is 120-140 lux. Thus, by utilizing high transmittance and high reflectivity, the effect of good light focusing and concentrated illuminance is achieved, which is the strong light setting.
[0033] The reflectivity of the inner surface of the lampshade 2 4 is preferably 40%, and the transmittance is preferably 40%. When the distance between the lampshade 2 4 and the bulb 2 is 10cm, the single-group illuminance range is 50-60 lux. By utilizing shallow light transmission and low reflectivity, the low-reflectivity inner wall absorbs most of the direct light, reducing the reflection intensity. Combined with the low-transmittance cover, the remaining optical fiber is diffused, and soft, weak light can be output.
[0034] It is important to note that a full-spectrum light source is used to ensure the integrity of the wavelength range.
[0035] Rotate the cover plate 5 connected to the lamp holder 1. The lamp holder 1 has an annular groove 10. The end of the cover plate 5 is slidably connected in the annular groove 10. The cover plate 5 has a light-transmitting hole 6. A light-diffusing plate 7 for scattering the light source is fixedly installed in the light-transmitting hole 6. The cross-sectional projection shape of the light-diffusing plate 7 is trapezoidal. Here, the number of light-transmitting holes 6 is less than the total number of lampshades 3 and 4 by at least two. For example, when the total number of lampshades 3 and 4 is four, the number of light-transmitting holes 6 is two. When the total number of lampshades 1 (3) and 2 (4) is six, the number of light-transmitting holes 6 is four. The cover plate 5 is made of opaque material. When the cover plate 5 is rotated, the corresponding light source intensity can be selected by using the light-transmitting holes 6 and the light-expanding plate 7, thereby realizing convenient adjustment of the lighting intensity. In addition, the light-expanding plate 7 is made of acrylic sheet, which has high light transmittance. The light-expanding plate 7 is designed in a trapezoidal shape to enhance the outward diffusion of light, thereby meeting the different light intensity requirements of chicks during their growth.
[0036] It should be noted that operators can also add a drive unit to the breeding area, which can be a drive motor. The output of the drive motor can drive the cover plate 5 to rotate. Operators only need to operate the system from the central control point to achieve simultaneous adjustment of the lighting in the breeding area.
[0037] In this invention, the lamp holder 1 is connected to the wall of the breeding area using bolts or clips and electrically connected to the switch. The bulb 2 is screwed into the lamp holder 1, and the lampshade 1 3 and lampshade 2 4 are inserted into the corresponding limiting holes 8 in an alternating manner, so that the lampshade 1 3 and lampshade 2 4 form a complete lampshade. At this time, the cover plate 5 is snapped into the annular sliding groove 10. When it is necessary to adjust the light intensity, the cover plate 5 can be twisted to move the light-transmitting hole 6 to the corresponding position, and the light diffuser 7 is used to scatter the light.
[0038] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
