Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of livestock breeding equipment technology, specifically a pig farrowing pen that is easy to clean. Background Technology
[0002] In modern pig farming systems, farrowing pens play an irreplaceable role as core facilities for ensuring safe production of sows and healthy growth of piglets. Through scientific and reasonable spatial layout and functional design, farrowing pens can not only provide a safe and comfortable birthing environment for sows and effectively reduce external interference, but also enable comprehensive observation and care of the sow's birthing process, facilitating timely handling of emergencies by farm staff.
[0003] The existing patent document CN221104391U discloses an adjustable pig farrowing pen. This utility model features a support plate to support the pig, a rotating shaft, a first barrier, and a fixing block to facilitate the placement of the pig on top of the farrowing pen, a second barrier, a second sliding groove, and a second sliding block to adjust the lateral position of the farrowing pen, and a first sliding groove, a first sliding block, a third barrier, and a fourth barrier to simultaneously adjust the position and length of the rear farrowing pen. This allows the farrowing pen to adapt to pigs of different sizes and body shapes, thus expanding its applicability.
[0004] However, existing farrowing pens for pig farming suffer from low cleaning efficiency and significant hygiene risks. Most existing farrowing pens use a horizontal or near-horizontal slatted floor design, and the layout of the slatted holes lacks systematic planning, causing feces and sewage to easily accumulate on the surface. Farmers need to frequently use scrapers, water pipes, and other tools for manual scraping and rinsing, which not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, but also easily misses corners during manual cleaning, making it impossible to guarantee the cleaning effect. Long-term residual feces and sewage will not only breed a large number of bacteria and insects and produce a pungent odor, but also seriously affect the growth environment of sows and piglets, and easily cause various respiratory and digestive diseases, increasing farming risks and disease prevention costs.

Detailed Implementation
[0025] 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.
[0026] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a pig farrowing pen that is easy to clean, including a support base 1, a support railing 2 inside the support base 1, and a plurality of manure-leaking plates 3 inside the support railing 2. The manure-leaking plates 3 are inclined at an angle of 15-30 degrees, and the manure-leaking plates 3 are provided with evenly distributed manure-leaking grooves 4.
[0027] During the use of the farrowing pen, the feces and sewage produced fall onto the inclined manure slat 3. Due to the inclination angle of the manure slat 3 and the evenly distributed manure troughs 4, the waste quickly slides down the manure troughs 4 under the action of gravity and falls directly into the manure collection tray 11 below. In this way, there is no need for frequent manual entry into the pen to clean the ground, which reduces the workload of the breeding staff and ensures the cleanliness and hygiene of the farrowing pen.
[0028] A fence 5 is provided on the upper surface of the support base 1. A guardrail 6 is provided on one side of the upper surface of the support base 1 between the fences 5. A partition 7 is provided inside the fence 5. A connecting plate 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the support rail 2. A first insertion slot 9 is provided inside the support base 1. The support rail 2 is movably inserted into the first insertion slot 9. A second insertion slot 10 is provided inside the support base 1 below the first insertion slot 9. A feces collection tray 11 is movably inserted into the second insertion slot 10. The feces collection tray 11 is located on the support base 1. Below column 2, a fixed plate 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the feces collection tray 11. A guide plate 13 is provided inside the feces collection tray 11. A sewage pipe 14 is provided in the middle of the side of the fixed plate 12 away from the feces collection tray 11. A positioning corner sleeve 15 is movably provided on the outside of the support base 1. The positioning corner sleeve 15 is located outside the connecting plate 8 and the fixed plate 12. A positioning pin 16 is fixedly provided on one side of the positioning corner sleeve 15. A positioning groove 17 is provided on the outside of the support base 1. The positioning pin 16 and the positioning groove 17 are movably inserted into each other.
[0029] During installation, the farrowing pen 2 is initially positioned by movably connecting the connecting plate 8 on one side to the first insertion slot 9 inside the support base 1 via the connecting plate 8. The manure collection tray 11 is then inserted into the second insertion slot 10. Subsequently, the positioning corner sleeve 15 is placed on the outside of the connecting plate 8 and the fixing plate 12, allowing the positioning pin 16 on one side of the positioning corner sleeve 15 to movably connect to the positioning groove 17 on the outside of the support base 1. This securely fixes the support pen 2 and the manure collection tray 11 to the support base 1, ensuring the stability of the farrowing pen structure and its ability to support the pig herd. The pressure generated by the activity causes sows and piglets to move within the area formed by fence 5 and partition 7. The guide plate 13 inside the manure collection drawer 11 guides the collected manure and sewage to one side for concentration. When cleaning is required, the farm workers open the drain pipe 14, and the waste is discharged to the external treatment area through the drain pipe 14 under the action of the guide plate 13. If deep cleaning or replacement of the manure collection drawer 11 is required, simply pull out the positioning pin 16 and remove the positioning corner sleeve 15 to connect the manure collection drawer 11 to the second insertion point. Pulling out of the trough 10 is simple and quick. The fence 5 forms a solid boundary defense line, accurately defining the activity area of the pigs. It can effectively prevent sows and piglets from running away at will and avoid external interference, creating a safe and stable growth environment for the pigs. The protective fence 6 is cleverly set between the fences 5. Its height and spacing have been scientifically considered. While ensuring the safety of the pigs, it leaves enough operating space for the farmers. Farmers can easily carry out daily operations such as postpartum care of sows and feeding of piglets through the gaps in the protective fence 6 without having to frequently enter and exit the pen. This improves work efficiency and reduces disturbance to the pigs. The dividing fence 7 is based on humanized design and functionally divides the internal space of the farrowing pen. This scientific spatial division can not only prevent sows from accidentally injuring piglets when turning over or getting up, but also facilitate farmers to provide targeted care for piglets. Whether it is observing the health status of sows or caring for the growth and development of piglets, it can be carried out in an orderly manner without interference. It comprehensively ensures the safety, efficiency and order of the sow farrowing and piglet growth process.
[0030] Working principle: During installation, the support fence 2 is initially positioned by movably connecting the connecting plate 8 on one side to the first insertion slot 9 inside the support base 1. The manure collection tray 11 is then inserted into the second insertion slot 10. Subsequently, the positioning corner sleeve 15 is placed on the outside of the connecting plate 8 and the fixing plate 12, so that the positioning pin 16 on one side of the positioning corner sleeve 15 is movably connected to the positioning groove 17 on the outside of the support base 1. This securely fixes the support fence 2 and the manure collection tray 11 to the support base 1, ensuring the stability of the farrowing pen structure and its ability to withstand the pressure generated by the movement of the pigs. The sow and piglets live within the area formed by the fence 5 and the partition 7. The feces and wastewater generated during farrowing fall onto the inclined slatted floor 3. Due to the inclination angle of the slatted floor 3 and the evenly distributed long troughs 4, the waste quickly slides down the long troughs 4 under the action of gravity and falls directly into the feces collection tray 11 below. In this way, there is no need for frequent manual entry into the pen to clean the ground, reducing the workload of the farmers and ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the farrowing pen. The guide plate 13 inside the feces collection tray 11 can guide the collected feces and wastewater to one side for collection. When cleaning is required, the farmers open the drain pipe 14, and the waste is discharged through the guide plate 13. The sewage pipe 14 discharges to the external treatment area. If deep cleaning or replacement of the manure collection tray 11 is required, simply pull out the positioning pin 16 and remove the positioning corner sleeve 15 to extract the manure collection tray 11 from the second insertion slot 10. The operation is simple and quick. The fence 5 forms a stable boundary defense line, accurately defining the pig's activity area. This effectively prevents sows and piglets from running away and avoids external interference, creating a safe and stable growth environment for the pigs. The protective fence 6 is cleverly installed between the fences 5. Its height and spacing have been scientifically considered, ensuring the safety of the pigs while providing ample operating space for the farmers. Farmers can easily perform daily operations such as postpartum care of sows and feeding of piglets through the gaps in the protective fence 6, without having to frequently enter and exit the pen. This improves work efficiency and reduces disturbance to the pigs. The partition fence 7 is designed with humanization in mind, dividing the interior space of the farrowing pen into functional zones. This scientific spatial division can prevent sows from accidentally injuring piglets when turning over or getting up, and it also makes it easier for farmers to provide targeted care for piglets. Whether it is observing the health status of sows or caring for the growth and development of piglets, everything can be done in an orderly manner without interference, ensuring the safety, efficiency and order of the sow farrowing and piglet growth process in all aspects.
