[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pig farming, and more specifically, it relates to a farrowing cage for pigs. Background Technology

[0002] In large-scale pig farming, environmental management during the farrowing stage of sows is crucial to the survival rate of piglets and the profitability of the farming.

[0003] Existing equipment mostly relies on manual cleaning of feces and stains, which is labor-intensive and inefficient, and can easily lead to fecal residue breeding bacteria, affecting the health of sows and the growth environment of piglets.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to redesign a farrowing cage for pig farming to address the aforementioned issues. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a pig farrowing cage.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A farrowing cage for pigs includes a mounting base. Multiple connecting blocks are symmetrically fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting base, and the farrowing cage is fixedly mounted between these connecting blocks. Two fixing blocks are symmetrically fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the mounting base, and a driving device is provided between the two fixing blocks. A mounting plate is fixedly mounted on the output end of the driving device. Water collection tanks are fixedly mounted on both sides of the mounting plate. Multiple nozzles are fixedly connected to the bottom end of each water collection tank. Two mounting grooves are symmetrically formed on the lower surface of the mounting plate, and a scraping device is provided between the two mounting grooves.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0021] Reference Figure 1-4 A pig farrowing cage includes a mounting base 1. Multiple connecting blocks 2 are symmetrically fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting base 1. A pig farrowing cage 3 is fixedly mounted between the multiple connecting blocks 2. Two fixing blocks 4 are symmetrically fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the mounting base 1. A driving device is provided between the two fixing blocks 4. A mounting plate 11 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the driving device. Water collection tanks 12 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the mounting plate 11. Multiple nozzles 14 are fixedly connected to the bottom end of each water collection tank 12. Two mounting grooves 16 are symmetrically opened on the lower surface of the mounting plate 11. A scraping device is provided between the two mounting grooves 16, and the output end of the scraping device is in contact with the upper surface of the mounting base 1.

[0022] The drive device includes a reciprocating screw 8 and two limit rods 10, which are rotatably mounted between two fixed blocks 4 via bearings. The two limit rods 10 are symmetrically fixed between the two fixed blocks 4. The reciprocating screw 8 is connected to a slider 9 via a screw sleeve, and the slider 9 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the two limit rods 10. The mounting plate 11 is fixedly mounted on one side of the slider 9. The two limit rods 10 can limit the slider 9 to prevent the slider 9 from rotating synchronously with the rotation of the reciprocating screw 8.

[0023] The scraping device includes two springs 17, which are fixedly installed in two mounting slots 16 respectively. A fixing rod 18 is fixedly installed at one end of each mounting slot 16, and two reciprocating screws 8 are slidably connected in the two mounting slots 16 respectively. A scraper 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the two fixing rods 18, and the scraper 15 is in contact with the upper end surface of the mounting base 1. The elastic force of the springs 17 can drive the fixing rods 18 to move the scraper 15 to keep in contact with the upper end surface of the mounting base 1.

[0024] Each water collection tank 12 has a fixed water supply pipe 13 connected to one side, and an external water source can be connected to the water supply pipe 13 to provide water to the water collection tank 12.

[0025] A mounting bracket 6 is fixedly installed on one side of one of the fixing blocks 4. A motor 7 is fixed on the mounting bracket 6, and the output shaft of the motor 7 rotates through one side of the fixing block 4 corresponding to the position and is fixedly connected to one end of the reciprocating screw 8.

[0026] The upper surfaces of the two fixing blocks 4 are jointly fixed with the heat preservation box 5, which provides a warm and stable environment for sow farrowing and piglet growth, effectively reducing the impact of cold weather on piglet survival rate, and is especially suitable for pig farming in winter or cold regions.

[0027] When this utility model is in use, after the motor 7 on the mounting base 1 is started, its output shaft drives the reciprocating screw 8 to rotate. Since the reciprocating screw 8 is connected to the slider 9 through the screw sleeve, and the slider 9 is slidably sleeved on the two limit rods 10, according to the screw nut transmission principle, the slider 9 will make reciprocating linear motion along the limit rods 10. The motion of the slider 9 is synchronously transmitted to the water collection tank 12 and the scraping device through the mounting plate 11, so that the two move back and forth together with the slider 9. With the reciprocating motion of the mounting plate 11, the scraper 15 continuously scrapes the surface of the mounting base 1 under the elastic force of the spring 17, effectively cleaning up feces and other debris.

[0028] Connect the external water source to the water supply pipe 13, and the water source can flow into the water collection tank 12. When the mounting plate 11 moves back and forth under the drive of the drive device, multiple nozzles 14 at the bottom of the water collection tank 12 spray water to rinse the surface of the mounting base 1. The spray range of the nozzles 14 is matched with the scraping area of ​​the scraper 15. After the scraper 15 finishes scraping, rinsing is carried out immediately to achieve a highly efficient cleaning effect of "scraping and rinsing combination" and ensure that there is no feces residue at the bottom of the cage.

[0029] The upper surfaces of the two fixing blocks 4 are jointly fixed with the heat preservation box 5. The heat preservation box 5 can be equipped with heating elements, temperature controllers and other equipment. After the appropriate temperature is set by the temperature controller, the heating element will work automatically to maintain a constant temperature inside the box. The heat preservation box 5 provides a warm and stable environment for sow farrowing and piglet growth, effectively reducing the impact of cold weather on piglet survival rate. It is especially suitable for pig farming in winter or cold regions.

[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
