Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of poultry single-cage farming technology, specifically a poultry weight monitoring device adapted to single-cage farming mode. Background Technology
[0002] In the early stages of economic development, animal husbandry often manifested as crop production, the so-called "backyard farming." With economic development, it has gradually developed into a relatively independent industry in certain sectors.
[0003] For example, the Chinese patent with announcement number CN208047720U, entitled "(A Poultry Cage-Raising Device)," includes: a raising cage, a feeding trough, and a manure removal belt. The manure removal belt is located below the raising cage. The feeding trough is a strip-shaped trough, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The raising cage includes a cage body and a feeding trough fixing device. The cage body consists of several fixedly connected raising chambers, each with a cage door at the top. The feeding trough fixing device includes a bracket fixed to the cage body. The bracket has a frame structure, forming a strip-shaped opening between the frame structure and the cage body. A lighting device and a rinsing pipe are also installed at the top of the cage body. The lighting device is located above the feeding trough fixing device, and the rinsing pipe is located at the top of the cage body. A heat dissipation water pipe is located below the rinsing pipe. The rinsing pipe and the heat dissipation water pipe are respectively connected to corresponding external water tanks via pumps. A drinker is also provided in each raising chamber. This utility model has a simple structure, is easy to use, and can ensure that poultry have good feeding and a comfortable external environment, which is beneficial to their growth.
[0004] However, existing poultry weight monitoring devices used in single-cage farming suffer from inaccurate weight monitoring, thus failing to meet current needs. To address this, we propose a poultry weight monitoring device adapted to single-cage farming. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a poultry weight monitoring device adapted to single-cage farming, so as to solve the problem of inaccurate weight monitoring in existing single-cage poultry farming devices mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a poultry weight monitoring device adapted to a single-cage breeding mode, comprising: a support frame, a connecting rod body arranged above the support frame, two connecting rod bodies being provided, and a single-cage frame being arranged between the two connecting rod bodies and the support frame;
[0007] Also includes:
[0008] The inner cavity is installed inside the single cage frame. Two pre-reserved moving grooves are provided on one end face of each of the two connecting rods. Both pre-reserved moving grooves are integrally formed with the connecting rods. Two moving grooves are provided inside the two connecting rods. Two pulleys are provided inside the two moving grooves. A baffle is provided inside the inner cavity. The upper ends of both sides of the baffle are rotatably connected to the pulleys via connecting rods. Two connecting rods are provided.
[0009] Preferably, one end of each of the two connecting rods extends through the outside of the connecting rod body, and one end of each of the two connecting rods is provided with a handle.
[0010] Preferably, there is an L-shaped connector on one side of the inner wall of the bracket frame, and two L-shaped connectors are provided, both of which are threaded to the inner wall of the bracket frame.
[0011] Preferably, a weighing sensor is provided above one end of each of the two L-shaped connectors, and two weighing sensors are provided, which are threadedly connected to the L-shaped connectors.
[0012] Preferably, the upper ends of the two weighing sensors extend through and into the lower side of the inner cavity, and a tray is provided at the upper ends of the two weighing sensors.
[0013] Preferably, both ends of the two connecting rods are detachably threaded to the bracket frame.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] 1. This utility model, through the pre-reserved moving groove, handle, moving groove, connecting rod, pulley, and baffle set on the connecting rod body, allows for the monitoring of poultry weight. When the handle 10012 moves to the pre-reserved moving groove 10011, it simultaneously drives the pulley 10015 to move in the moving groove 10013, ultimately driving the baffle 10016 to move in the inner cavity 300. When the baffle 10016 moves, it can effectively drive the poultry onto the tray 103, and transmit the data through the weighing sensor 102. This effectively avoids the problem of inaccurate weight monitoring caused by the poultry not being properly positioned on the load-bearing structure when bearing weight. Attached Figure Description

[0024] Also includes:
[0025] The inner cavity 300 is installed inside the single cage frame 200. Two pre-reserved moving grooves 10011 are provided on one end face of each of the two connecting rods 1001. Both pre-reserved moving grooves 10011 are integrally formed with the connecting rods 1001. Two moving grooves 10013 are provided inside the two connecting rods 10011. Two pulleys 10015 are provided inside the two moving grooves 10013. A baffle 10016 is provided inside the inner cavity 300.

[0026] When it is necessary to monitor the weight of poultry, the handle 10012 is moved to the side of the reserved moving slot 10011, which simultaneously drives the pulley 10015 to move in the moving slot 10013, and finally drives the baffle 10016 to move in the inner cavity 300. When the baffle 10016 moves, it can effectively drive the poultry onto the tray 103.
[0027] Example 2
[0028] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 One end of each of the two connecting rods 10014 extends through the outside of the connecting rod body 1001, and one end of each of the two connecting rods 10014 is provided with a handle 10012.
[0029] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 One side of the inner wall of the support frame 100 has an L-shaped connector 101, and there are two L-shaped connectors 101. Both L-shaped connectors 101 are threaded to the inner wall of the support frame 100. A weighing sensor 102 is provided above one end of the two L-shaped connectors 101. There are two weighing sensors 102. The two weighing sensors 102 are threaded to the L-shaped connectors 101. The upper ends of the two weighing sensors 102 penetrate through and extend to the lower side of the inner cavity 300. A tray 103 is provided at the upper end of the two weighing sensors 102.
[0030] Poultry can be weighed on tray 103, and the data can be transmitted through weighing sensor 102.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 Both ends of the two connecting rods 1001 are detachably threaded to the bracket frame 100.
[0032] Working principle: When in use, poultry are placed in a single cage 200 for raising. When it is necessary to monitor the weight of the poultry, the handle 10012 is moved to the side of the reserved moving groove 10011, which simultaneously drives the pulley 10015 to move in the moving groove 10013, and finally drives the baffle 10016 to move in the inner cavity 300. When the baffle 10016 moves, it can effectively drive the poultry onto the tray 103, thereby bearing the weight, and the data is transmitted through the weighing sensor 102.
