Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of livestock breeding technology, specifically to an adjustable enclosure for livestock breeding. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern livestock farming industry, pen enclosures are a crucial piece of infrastructure. They not only provide livestock with a relatively fixed living space, but also play a key role in ensuring the healthy growth of livestock and improving farming efficiency.

[0003] Chinese patent CN222017436U discloses an adjustable pen for pig farming. By sliding an adjusting rod inside a second fixed rod, the distance between the first and second fixed rods can be quickly adjusted, thus facilitating protection for pigs at different stages of their farming.

[0004] While the aforementioned patent can achieve the purpose of height adjustment, it requires adjusting the height of each fixing rod by means of bolts, which is very cumbersome and time-consuming, greatly increasing the workload.

[0005] Furthermore, the aforementioned patents do not allow for the splicing of maintenance fences together. When used in combination, each maintenance fence is an individual unit, resulting in low connection strength and susceptibility to loosening or collapse due to external forces (such as impacts from pigs). Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an adjustable enclosure for livestock breeding, which effectively solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution.

[0008] An adjustable livestock enclosure includes a base plate. Multiple first sleeves are mounted on the upper surface of the base plate, and first adjusting rods are slidably mounted inside the first sleeves. Second sleeves are mounted on both sides of the upper surface of the base plate, and second adjusting rods are slidably mounted inside the second sleeves. A top plate is mounted on the tops of the two second adjusting rods and the multiple first adjusting rods. Multiple insertion holes are formed on the outer surface of the second adjusting rods along their height direction, and an insertion mechanism is provided on the outer surface of the second sleeves to engage with the insertion holes.

[0009] Therefore, when adjusting the height, it is only necessary to adjust the height of the two outermost second adjusting rods through the plug-in mechanism, without having to operate the first adjusting rod in the middle. Moreover, the plug-in method is more efficient and easier to operate than bolt fixing, and significantly reduces the workload.

[0010] Furthermore, the insertion mechanism includes an installation tube mounted on the outer surface of the second sleeve. A movable block is disposed inside the installation tube, and an insertion rod is connected to the outer surface of the movable block, the insertion rod being adapted to the insertion hole. A pull rope is connected to the outer surface of the movable block away from the insertion rod, and the end of the pull rope extends to the outside of the installation tube. A spring is disposed inside the installation tube, with both ends of the spring abutting against the movable block and the inner wall of the installation tube, respectively, and the spring is sleeved on the outside of the pull rope.

[0011] When height adjustment is needed, pull the cord outward. This causes the movable block to move within the mounting tube and compress the spring, thus pulling the insert rod out of the socket and releasing the fixation on the second adjusting rod. After adjusting the height of the second adjusting rod, release the cord. The compressed spring releases its elasticity, pushing the insert rod into the socket to achieve fixation. Furthermore, if the insert rod is not aligned with the socket and is pressing against the outer surface of the second adjusting rod when the cord is released, simply slide the second adjusting rod up and down. Because the end of the insert rod has a spherical structure, frictional resistance is reduced. Once the insert rod is aligned with the socket, it will automatically insert and fix itself.

[0012] Furthermore, a pull plate is slidably installed on the upper surface of the top plate in a vertical direction, and the ends of the two pull ropes are connected to the lower surface of the pull plate. A handle is installed on the upper surface of the pull plate.

[0013] By pulling the handle upwards, the plate can be raised, which in turn pulls two ropes, causing both rods to be pulled out of the sockets at the same time. Then, by continuing to pull the handle upwards, the height of the top plate can be adjusted. Once the appropriate height is reached, hold the bottom of the top plate with your hand and release the handle, allowing the rods to be inserted into the sockets under the push of the springs, thus achieving the purpose of height adjustment. This can be operated by a single person.

[0014] Furthermore, a connecting plate is provided on one side of the upper surface of the top plate, and a first bolt hole is provided at the end of the connecting plate, while a second bolt hole is provided on the other side of the upper surface of the top plate.

[0015] When placing two maintenance railings together, align the first bolt hole with the top of the second bolt hole, and then use bolts to fix the connecting plate to the other top plate together to achieve the purpose of fixed splicing.

[0016] Furthermore, the connecting plate is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the top plate via a rotating shaft. The outer surface of the connecting plate is fitted with a protrusion, and a fixing bolt is installed inside the protrusion. Three screw holes are coaxially arranged around the rotating shaft on the upper surface of the top plate, and the screw holes are adapted to the fixing bolts.

[0017] When the fixing bolts are unscrewed from the screw holes, the fixing of the connecting plate can be released. At this time, the connecting plate can rotate around the pivot. When the protrusion is fixed to the other two screw holes by the fixing bolts, the angle between the connecting plate and the top plate is 90°. At this time, the corner splicing purpose can be achieved, and the maintenance fence can be enclosed into a closed structure for livestock breeding.

[0018] Furthermore, the outer surface of the pull rope is provided with an abutment block.

[0019] When the handle is pulled upwards, the insertion rod can be pulled out of the insertion hole. At this time, the abutment block abuts against the lower surface of the top plate. Therefore, when the top plate is pulled upwards, the installation tube will not be excessively pulled by the pull rope, which could lead to structural damage.

[0020] Furthermore, a guide wheel is installed at the end of the installation tube, and the pull rope is located inside the guide wheel.

[0021] The guide rollers guide the pull rope, preventing it from scratching the inner wall and surface of the installation tube and causing damage.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0023] 1. When adjusting the height, only the height of the second adjusting rods on both sides needs to be adjusted through the plug-in mechanism. There is no need to operate the first adjusting rod in the middle. Moreover, the plug-in method is more efficient and easier to operate than bolt fixing, which greatly reduces the workload.

[0024] 2. By setting the connecting plate and the second bolt hole, multiple maintenance fences can be fixedly spliced ​​together, forming a whole with higher structural strength. This effectively prevents loosening or collapse under external force. Furthermore, the angle of the connecting plate can be adjusted by setting the pivot, fixing bolts and bolt holes to achieve corner splicing. Attached Figure Description

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.

[0032] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection" and "installation" should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a detachable connection or a non-detachable connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "connection" can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. "Fixed" means that the relative positional relationship remains unchanged after the connection. The directional terms mentioned in the embodiments of this utility model, such as "inner," "outer," "top," and "bottom," are only for reference to the directions in the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional terms used are for better and clearer explanation and understanding of the embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to 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 the embodiments of this utility model.

[0033] In this embodiment of the invention, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.

[0034] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model provides an adjustable livestock enclosure, comprising a base plate 1, with multiple first sleeves 101 mounted on the upper surface of the base plate 1, and first adjusting rods 102 slidably mounted inside the first sleeves 101. Second sleeves 103 are mounted on both sides of the upper surface of the base plate 1, and second adjusting rods 104 are slidably mounted inside the second sleeves 103. A top plate 105 is mounted on the top of the two second adjusting rods 104 and the multiple first adjusting rods 102. When the height of the top plate 105 is adjusted, the first adjusting rods 102 can simultaneously slide within the first sleeves 101, and the second adjusting rods 104 can simultaneously slide within the second sleeves 103. The outer surface of the second adjusting rod 104 has multiple insertion holes 106 along its height direction. The outer surface of the second sleeve 103 is provided with a plug-in mechanism 2 that engages with the insertion holes 106. When adjusting the height, it is only necessary to adjust the height of the two outermost second adjusting rods 104 through the plug-in mechanism 2. There is no need to operate the first adjusting rod 102 in the middle. The operation is simple and efficient.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5The insertion mechanism 2 includes an installation tube 201 mounted on the outer surface of the second sleeve 103. A movable block 202 is disposed inside the installation tube 201. An insertion rod 203 is connected to the outer surface of the movable block 202, and the insertion rod 203 is adapted to the insertion hole 106. A pull rope 205 is connected to the outer surface of the movable block 202 away from the insertion rod 203, and the end of the pull rope 205 extends through to the outside of the installation tube 201. A spring 204 is installed inside the mounting tube 201. The two ends of the spring 204 abut against the movable block 202 and the inner wall of the mounting tube 201, respectively. The spring 204 is sleeved on the outside of the pull rope 205. When the height needs to be adjusted, the pull rope 205 can be pulled outward, which drives the movable block 202 to move inside the mounting tube 201 and compress the spring 204, thereby causing the insertion rod 203 to be pulled out from the insertion hole 106, releasing the fixation of the second adjusting rod 104. Then, after the height of the second adjusting rod 104 is adjusted, the pull rope 205 is released, the compressed spring 204 releases its elasticity, and pushes the insertion rod 203 into the insertion hole 106 to achieve the purpose of fixing. Furthermore, when the pull rope 205 is released, if the insertion rod 203 is not aligned with the insertion hole 106 and thus abuts against the outer surface of the second adjusting rod 104, simply slide the second adjusting rod 104 up and down. Since the end of the insertion rod 203 is a spherical structure, it can reduce frictional resistance. When the insertion rod 203 is aligned with the insertion hole 106, it can be automatically inserted into its interior for fixation. A pull plate 3 is slidably mounted on the upper surface of the top plate 105 in a vertical direction, and the ends of the two pull ropes 205 are connected to the lower surface of the pull plate 3. A handle 301 is mounted on the upper surface of the pull plate 3. By pulling the handle 301 upward, the pull plate 3 is raised, and the two pull ropes 205 can be pulled at the same time, so that the two insertion rods 203 are pulled out from the insertion hole 106 at the same time. Then, by continuing to pull the handle 301 upward, the height of the top plate 105 can be adjusted. When the height is adjusted to a suitable level, the bottom of the top plate 105 is supported by hand and the handle 301 is released, so that the insertion rods 203 are inserted into the insertion hole 106 under the push of the spring 204, thus achieving the purpose of height adjustment. It can be operated by a single person.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 Figure 3A connecting plate 4 is provided on one side of the upper surface of the top plate 105. A first bolt hole 401 is provided at the end of the connecting plate 4, and a second bolt hole 402 is provided on the other side of the upper surface of the top plate 105. When the two maintenance railings are placed together, the first bolt hole 401 is aligned with the upper part of the second bolt hole 402. Then, the connecting plate 4 can be fixedly connected to the other top plate 105 with bolts to achieve the purpose of fixed splicing. The connecting plate 4 is rotatably mounted on the upper surface of the top plate 105 via the rotating shaft 5. The outer surface of the connecting plate 4 is equipped with a protrusion 501, and a fixing bolt 502 is installed inside the protrusion 501. The upper surface of the top plate 105 is provided with three screw holes 503 coaxially around the rotating shaft 5. The screw holes 503 are adapted to the fixing bolts 502. When the fixing bolts 502 are unscrewed from the screw holes 503, the fixing of the connecting plate 4 can be released. At this time, the connecting plate 4 can rotate around the rotating shaft 5. When the protrusion 501 is fixed on the other two screw holes 503 by the fixing bolts 502, the angle between the connecting plate 4 and the top plate 105 is 90°. At this time, the corner splicing purpose can be achieved, and the guardrail can be enclosed into a closed structure for livestock breeding.

[0037] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 5 The outer surface of the pull rope 205 is provided with an abutment block 6. When the handle 301 is pulled upward, the insertion rod 203 can be pulled out from the insertion hole 106. At this time, the abutment block 6 abuts against the lower surface of the top plate 105. Therefore, when the top plate 105 is pulled upward, the mounting tube 201 will not be excessively pulled by the pull rope 205, which could lead to structural damage. A guide wheel 7 is installed at the end of the mounting tube 201. The pull rope 205 is located inside the guide wheel 7. The guide wheel 7 guides the pull rope 205, preventing it from scratching the inner wall and surface of the mounting tube 201 and causing damage.

[0038] The specific workflow and working principle of this device are as follows.

[0039] During installation, fix the base plate 1 to the ground, then pull the handle 301 upwards. Pull the cord 205 to pull the insertion rod 203 out of the insertion hole 106. At this time, the second adjusting rod 104 is released from its fixed position. Continue pulling the handle 301 upwards to pull the second adjusting rod 104 out of the second sleeve 103, thus adjusting the height of the top plate 105. Once the desired height is reached, support the bottom of the top plate 105 with your hand and release the handle 301. The insertion rod 203 will then be inserted into the insertion hole 106 under the push of the spring 204, achieving the desired height adjustment. After fixing the other maintenance railings to the ground, adjust them to the same height using the above method. Then, align the first bolt hole 401 with the top of the second bolt hole 402. Then, use bolts to fix the connecting plate 4 to another top plate 105 together to achieve the purpose of fixed splicing, so that multiple maintenance railings form a whole with higher structural strength. This can effectively prevent loosening or collapse under external force. Furthermore, through the setting of the pivot 5, fixing bolts 502 and screw holes 503, the angle of the connecting plate 4 can be adjusted to achieve the purpose of corner splicing.

[0040] When the height of the maintenance railing needs to be adjusted later, simply disconnect the fixed connection between the connecting plate 4 and the adjacent top plate 105, then adjust the height of each maintenance railing in the manner described above, and finally fix the connecting plate 4 and the adjacent top plate 105 together with bolts. This can be done by a single person.

[0041] If there are enough people, they can operate at the same time, and the height can be adjusted without removing the connection between the connecting plate 4 and the adjacent top plate 105, which is more efficient.

[0042] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
