[0002] With the continuous development of modern animal husbandry, broiler farming is gradually moving towards large-scale and intensive operations. In the process of broiler farming, chickens are usually raised in multi-layer cage systems to improve space utilization and management efficiency.

[0003] Most broiler cage-raising and chicken-removing equipment on the market is manually operated or semi-automated, with a low degree of automation. Specifically, in practical applications, farmers usually need to manually grab the chickens out of the cages or use simple push-pull devices to move the entire cage out for manual removal. This method is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but it can also easily cause stress to the chickens during the operation, even leading to injury and affecting their health and meat quality. In large-scale farms, low chicken removal efficiency will directly affect the overall production efficiency and economic benefits, making it impossible to achieve efficient, safe, and continuous chicken removal operations.

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.

[0023] Reference Figures 1-3This utility model provides an embodiment of an automatic broiler cage-raising and unloading device, comprising a support frame 1, an unloading frame 2 fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1, fixed posts 8 fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the inner wall of the unloading frame 2, gears 7 rotatably connected to the outer walls of the two fixed posts 8, sliding components provided on the outer walls of the gears 7, a first toothed plate 6 meshing with the top of the outer wall of the gears 7, a connecting rod 9 fixedly connected to the top of the first toothed plate 6, a cover plate 3 fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod 9, and the outer wall of the cover plate 3 slidably connected to the inner wall of the unloading frame 2. At the top, gear 7 is connected to inner frame 11 via a sliding assembly. The sliding assembly includes a second toothed plate 10 meshing with the outer wall of gear 7. The outer wall of the second toothed plate 10 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of inner frame 11. Rotating rods 20 are fixedly connected to both the left and right sides of the inner wall of inner frame 11. A rotating plate 19 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating rods 20. A rotating groove 18 is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of inner frame 11. The size of the rotating groove 18 is adapted to the rotating plate 19. A connecting plate 21 is slidably connected to the inner wall of rotating plate 19. A fixing plate 22 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of connecting plate 21. A sliding plate 17 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed plate 22. The outer wall of the sliding plate 17 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the inner frame 11. A groove 26 is provided at the bottom end of the inner wall of the rotating plate 19. The groove 26 is configured to allow the connecting plate 21 to slide. A connecting block 23 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding plate 17. A sliding rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting block 23. A tension spring 25 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding rod. A pull rod 24 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the tension spring 25. The outer wall of the pull rod 24 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the inner frame 11. The outer wall of the sliding rod is slidably connected to the pull rod 24. The inner wall and the left and right sides of the inner frame 11 are fixedly connected to the connecting plate 12. The top of the connecting plate 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom column 13. The top of the bottom column 13 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 15. The bottom of the pressure plate 15 is fixedly connected to the pressure spring 16. The outer wall of the pressure spring 16 is fixedly connected to the round tube 14. The outer wall of the round tube 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the chicken exit frame 2. The top front side of the chicken exit frame 2 is fixedly connected to the guide light 4. The guide light 4 is used to guide the chicken into the equipment. The top rear side of the chicken exit frame 2 is fixedly connected to the slide plate 5. The slide plate 5 is used to make the chicken slide into the chicken exit frame 2.

[0024] Specifically, by turning on the guide light 4 located at the entrance of the device, which is an LED or halogen lamp, the guide light 4 continuously emits soft light to form a stable light path, guiding the chickens to automatically walk towards the chicken exit device. The chickens are attracted and move forward along the direction of the guide light 4, and then the chickens will naturally fall into the inner frame 11. Their own weight will cause the inner frame 11 to move downward. As the inner frame 11 moves downward, the second toothed plates 10 on both sides of the inner frame 11 will also move downward. The movement of the second toothed plate 10 drives the gear 7 that meshes with it. The gear 7 is fixed on the fixed column 8. Therefore, when the second toothed plate 10 pushes the gear 7, the gear 7 will rotate around the fixed column 8. The rotation of the gear 7 will drive the first toothed plate 6 that meshes with it. The first toothed plate 6 moves inward. The first toothed plate 6 is connected to the cover plate 3 through the connecting rod 9. Therefore, when the first toothed plate 6 moves inward, the cover plate 3 will be driven to move downward, thereby closing the top of the equipment. This can prevent the chicken from escaping from the top. At the same time, the downward movement of the inner frame 11 will also drive the connecting plate 12 to slide together. The connecting plate 12 is connected to the bottom column 13. The pressure plate 15 is connected to the bottom of the bottom column 13. As the inner frame 11 moves downward, the pressure plate 15 will move downward in the round tube 14, compressing the compression spring 16. The compression of the compression spring 16 provides energy for the subsequent rebound. In the storage phase, when the inner frame 11 emerges from the inside of the chicken exit frame 2, the equipment enters the next stage. At this time, the tension spring 25 begins to rebound. One end of the tension spring 25 is connected to the connecting block 23. The rebound of the tension spring 25 will drive the connecting block 23 to slide outward from the inner frame 11. As the connecting block 23 slides, the sliding plate 17 will be pushed outward. The sliding plate 17 is connected to the fixed plate 22. Therefore, when the sliding plate 17 moves outward, the fixed plate 22 will also be pushed outward. A connecting plate 21 is installed on the outer wall of the fixed plate 22. The connecting plate 21 can slide in the rotating plate 19. When the fixed plate 22 is pushed, the connecting plate 21 slides in the rotating plate 19, causing the rotating plate 19 to rotate outward around the rotating rod 20. The sliding of the sliding plate 17 will cause the originally closed exit space to gradually open, eventually forming a channel through which the chickens will slide out of the equipment.

[0025] Working principle: By turning on the guide light 4, the chickens are induced to step onto the sliding plate 5 and fall into the inner frame 11. Then, the weight of the chickens causes the inner frame 11, along with the second toothed plates 10 on both sides, to move downwards. This downward movement of the second toothed plates 10 causes the gear 7 to rotate on the fixed column 8. The gear 7 pulls the first toothed plate 6 at the top to move inwards. The first toothed plate 6, through the connecting rod 9, drives the cover plate 3 to close the top of the equipment, preventing the chickens from flying out. At the same time, the inner frame 11, along with the connecting plate 12, slides downwards, causing the connecting plate 12 to slide along the bottom column 1. The pressure plate 15 on the bottom column 13 moves downward, causing the pressure plate 15 to move downward in the round tube 14 to squeeze the compression spring 16. Then, after the inner frame 11 emerges from the inside of the chicken exit frame 2, the tension spring 25 rebounds, causing the connecting block 23 to slide with the sliding plate 17 to the outside of the inner frame 11. The sliding plate 17 pushes the fixing plate 22 outward, causing the connecting plate 21 on the outer wall of the fixing plate 22 to slide in the rotating plate 19. The rotating plate 19 rotates outward on the rotating rod 20, causing the chicken to slide out of the equipment from the space after the sliding plates 17 on both sides are unfolded.
