Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary equipment technology for livestock breeding, and more specifically, to an integrated automatic manure removal device for livestock breeding. Background Technology
[0002] In the livestock farming industry, cleaning livestock and poultry manure is an important and tedious task. Traditional methods of manure cleaning mostly involve manual cleaning or simple mechanical assistance. Manual manure cleaning is labor-intensive, inefficient, and involves long-term exposure to harsh working environments, posing a significant health hazard to workers. Simple mechanical assistance, such as scraper manure cleaners, while improving efficiency to some extent, suffers from problems such as incomplete cleaning, susceptibility to malfunctions, and the need for frequent maintenance.
[0003] Furthermore, with the development of large-scale and intensive livestock farming, the amount of livestock and poultry manure produced has increased significantly. If manure is not treated in a timely and effective manner, it will not only lead to the deterioration of the farming environment, the breeding of large numbers of bacteria, viruses and mosquitoes, and increase the risk of livestock and poultry diseases, but also cause environmental pollution. Harmful substances in the manure will seep into the soil and water sources, damaging the surrounding ecological environment.
[0004] Patent CN116711648A discloses a high-efficiency manure cleaning device for livestock farming, relating to the field of livestock manure cleaning technology. The device includes a movable frame, a rotating roller with several material feeding components, a pair of conveying rollers rotatably mounted on the movable frame, a lifting frame with a filter pressing component corresponding to the filter pressing tank, a liquid collection tank at the bottom of the filter pressing tank, a receiving component fixed on the filter pressing tank below the lifting belt, and a squeezing roller coaxially fixed to the driven gear. This invention uses a collection hood to gather livestock manure. The rotating roller drives the material feeding plate to rotate, allowing the manure to move along the collection hood and fall through the connecting hole onto the lifting belt for lifting. The manure then enters the filter pressing tank and undergoes repeated filtration by the filter pressing components to achieve solid-liquid separation. This equipment can achieve integrated automatic collection, conveying, and solid-liquid separation of livestock manure, greatly improving the cleaning efficiency of livestock manure.
[0005] While this technical solution offers the advantage of integrating automatic collection, transportation, and solid-liquid separation of livestock manure, its application is primarily suited for open farming areas. It is unsuitable for indoor, fenced-in livestock farming, as this would hinder the device's movement within the enclosure, impacting its effectiveness. Therefore, we propose an integrated automatic manure removal system for livestock farming. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated automatic manure removal device for livestock farming, so as to solve the defects mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] An integrated automatic manure removal system for livestock farming includes a livestock shed. The shed has multiple inner enclosures, each with a suspended bottom mesh plate supported by multiple bottom support beams. An inclined drainage plate is located at the bottom of the bottom mesh plate. A drainage ditch is located at the center of the shed, and the inclined drainage plate directs waste into the ditch. Multiple conveying pipes are located above the inner enclosures, with multiple spray nozzles fixedly installed at their bottoms. A bottom drain pipe for rinsing the waste on the inclined drainage plate is located above the end of the inclined drainage plate furthest from the drainage ditch. A water outlet pipe for flushing water is located at the end of the drainage ditch.
[0009] Preferably, the bottom perforated plate has a perforated plate structure, and the inclined sewage discharge plate is inclined downward at 30°~45°.
[0010] This feature allows feces on the bottom mesh plate to be flushed by water and fall onto the inclined drain plate. The inclined design of the drain plate allows waste to flow into the drainage ditch.
[0011] Preferably, the bottom drain pipe is arranged along the length of the inclined drain plate, and the bottom of the bottom drain pipe is provided with a plurality of drain holes, which are arranged along the length of the bottom drain pipe.
[0012] This feature allows for easier drainage of waste from the inclined drain plate into the sewer.
[0013] Preferably, a smooth, non-stick layer is provided on the upper surface of the inclined sewage discharge plate, and the thickness of the smooth, non-stick layer is between 1.6 mm and 2.5 mm.
[0014] Preferably, multiple fans are fixedly installed on both sides of the frame of the breeding shed, and the fans are used for ventilation.
[0015] Preferably, the bottom wall of the sewage ditch is provided with a bottom slope, which is inclined downward at 15° to 30° toward the outlet of the sewage ditch.
[0016] Preferably, the end of the sewage ditch is connected to an external sewage treatment device, a solenoid valve is fixedly installed on the outlet pipe, and a water storage tank is fixedly installed at the inlet end of the outlet pipe.
[0017] Preferably, an inlet pipe is fixedly installed on the water storage tank, and a flushing pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the outlet pipe. The water discharged from the flushing pipe is used to promote the flow of sewage in the drainage ditch.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] 1. This utility model, by setting a bottom mesh plate, an inclined sewage discharge plate, a sewage discharge channel, and a matching flushing structure, allows feces to fall from the bottom mesh plate to the inclined sewage discharge plate through a shower head in conjunction with flushing. Then, water flows out through the bottom drain pipe, is guided through the inclined sewage discharge plate to the sewage discharge channel, and finally is flushed through the water outlet pipe to be sent to external treatment equipment. This realizes the automatic collection and transportation of feces in an indoor fenced enclosure environment, thereby improving the efficiency of manure removal and reducing labor intensity.
[0020] 2. This utility model, by setting the bottom mesh plate in a mesh shape, tilting the sewage discharge plate, setting a specific tilt angle on the bottom wall of the sewage discharge channel, and installing drainage holes in the bottom drainage pipe and equipping the outlet pipe with a flushing pipe, allows manure to be transported more smoothly from the breeding area to the sewage discharge channel and discharged through gravity and water flow under the flushing of water. This achieves efficient manure diversion and transportation, reducing manure residue and ensuring a clean breeding environment.
[0021] 3. This utility model reduces the adhesion of feces to the board by setting a smooth, non-stick layer on the inclined sewage discharge plate, and at the same time uses a fan for ventilation to improve the air quality in the breeding shed. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0031] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: an integrated automatic manure removal device for livestock breeding, including a breeding shed 1. The breeding shed 1 has multiple inner fences 11 inside, and a bottom mesh plate 12 is installed at the bottom of each inner fence 11. The bottom mesh plate 12 is suspended and supported by multiple bottom support beams 13. An inclined sewage discharge plate 15 is installed at the bottom of the bottom mesh plate 12. A sewage discharge channel 2 is located at the center of the interior of the breeding shed 1, and the inclined sewage discharge plate 15 discharges waste... The wastewater is diverted into the drainage ditch 2. Multiple conveying pipes 14 are installed above the inner fence 11, and multiple spray nozzles 141 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the conveying pipes 14. A bottom drain pipe 16 is installed above the end of the inclined drainage plate 15 furthest from the drainage ditch 2 to flush away the waste on the inclined drainage plate 15. A water outlet pipe 23 is installed at the end of the drainage ditch 2 to flush and divert the wastewater, allowing livestock manure to fall directly through the bottom mesh plate 12 and then be diverted to the drainage ditch 2 by the inclined drainage plate 15. Simultaneously, the conveying pipes 14 and spray nozzles 141 above the inner fence 11 flush the bottom mesh plate 12, ensuring no manure residue remains. This achieves automatic collection and initial diversion of manure in an indoor fenced farming environment, reducing manual manure removal and improving cleaning efficiency.
[0032] In this embodiment, the bottom mesh plate 12 has a mesh-like plate structure, and the inclined sewage discharge plate 15 is set at a downward inclination of 30°~45°, so that the feces can slide quickly and smoothly from the bottom mesh plate 12 to the inclined sewage discharge plate 15 under the action of gravity and water flow, and enter the sewage discharge channel 2 along the inclined sewage discharge plate 15. This achieves efficient and smooth transfer of feces, avoids the accumulation of feces, and keeps the breeding area clean.
[0033] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the bottom drain pipe 16 is arranged along the length of the inclined sewage plate 15. The bottom of the bottom drain pipe 16 is provided with multiple drain holes 161. The multiple drain holes 161 are arranged along the length of the bottom drain pipe 16. Water can be discharged from the drain holes 161 to specifically flush the feces remaining on the inclined sewage plate 15, making it easier for the feces to be flushed into the sewage ditch 2. This achieves effective cleaning of the inclined sewage plate 15 and thorough drainage of feces, further ensuring the cleaning effect and preventing feces residue.
[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, a smooth non-stick layer 151 is provided on the upper surface of the inclined sewage discharge plate 15. The thickness of the smooth non-stick layer 151 is between 1.6mm and 2.5mm, which significantly reduces the adhesion between the feces and the surface of the inclined sewage discharge plate 15. This makes the feces easier to slide off under the action of gravity and water flow, reducing the workload of manually cleaning the sewage discharge plate and achieving the effect of preventing feces from sticking and ensuring a smooth manure cleaning process. The smooth non-stick layer 151 can be made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). PTFE has an extremely low coefficient of surface friction, making it difficult for feces to adhere to its surface. It also has excellent chemical stability, hardly reacting with any chemical substances. Even if it is in contact with acidic or alkaline substances in feces for a long time, it is not easily corroded. At the same time, it also has good high-temperature and low-temperature resistance, which can adapt to the complex temperature environment inside the breeding shed and has a long service life.
[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, multiple fans 10 are fixedly installed on both sides of the frame of the breeding shed 1. The fans 10 are used for ventilation operation, which can continuously ventilate the inside of the breeding shed 1, effectively reduce the concentration of harmful gases such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in the shed, and reduce odor. This achieves the effect of improving the air quality of the breeding environment, reducing the risk of respiratory diseases in livestock and poultry, and ensuring the healthy growth of livestock and poultry.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, a bottom slope 20 is provided on the bottom wall of the sewage ditch 2. The bottom slope 20 is set at a downward angle of 15° to 30° towards the outlet of the sewage ditch 2, so that the feces and sewage in the sewage ditch 2 can flow towards the outlet more quickly under the impact of gravity and water flow, thereby accelerating the discharge of sewage in the sewage ditch 2 and preventing sewage from accumulating and clogging.
[0037] like Figure 5As shown, the end of the sewage ditch 2 is connected to an external sewage treatment device. A solenoid valve 24 is fixedly installed on the outlet pipe 23. A water storage tank 21 is fixedly installed at the inlet end of the outlet pipe 23. An inlet pipe 22 is fixedly installed on the water storage tank 21. A flushing pipe 231 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the outlet pipe 23. The water discharged from the flushing pipe 231 is used to promote the flow of sewage in the sewage ditch 2. The opening and closing of the outlet pipe 23 and the flushing water volume can be controlled as needed. The water discharged from the flushing pipe 231 promotes the flow of sewage in the sewage ditch 2, realizing the efficient transportation of sewage in the sewage ditch 2 to the external treatment device, achieving the effect of automated and controllable sewage treatment.
[0038] It is worth noting that the ends of the delivery pipe 14 and the bottom drain pipe 16 can be connected to an external delivery pump. The delivery pump is connected to an external storage tank, which can store the corresponding water or add disinfectant solution, enabling flushing to clean up feces and adding medicine for disinfection.
[0039] When the automatic manure removal integrated equipment for livestock breeding of this utility model is in use, the livestock and poultry manure first falls through the bottom mesh plate 12 at the bottom of the inner fence 11 of the breeding shed 1 and onto the inclined sewage discharge plate 15 below. At this time, the conveying pipe 14 above the inner fence 11 is also normally flowing with water, and the shower head 141 at the bottom will spray water outward to wash the bottom mesh plate 12, ensuring that there is no manure residue, so that the manure falls down the bottom mesh plate 12 onto the inclined sewage discharge plate 15 more smoothly.
[0040] Next, under the action of gravity and water flow, the feces flow along the inclined sewage plate 15 to the sewage ditch 2. During the process, the bottom drain pipe 16, which is set along the length of the inclined sewage plate 15, discharges water through the drain hole 161 at its bottom to specifically flush the feces remaining on the inclined sewage plate 15, so that it can smoothly enter the sewage ditch 2.
[0041] The bottom slope 20 of the bottom wall of the sewage ditch 2, together with the flushing water from the flushing pipe 231 at the bottom of the outlet pipe 23, accelerates the flow of feces and sewage to the outlet of the sewage ditch 2. When the amount of feces in the sewage ditch 2 reaches a certain amount, the solenoid valve 24 on the outlet pipe 23 is opened, and the feces are flushed and transported to the external feces treatment equipment under the action of water flow.
[0042] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
