Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of exercise cage technology, specifically to an exercise and fitness cage. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, chicken has become one of the most common and popular meat choices on the dining table, thanks to its diverse cooking methods, high protein and low fat health benefits, and especially its relatively affordable price resulting from mature breeding technology and a stable supply chain.

[0003] Currently, intensive chicken farming primarily focuses on meeting the basic survival needs of chickens, often restricting their activity and resulting in widespread insufficient exercise among flocks. Studies show that this lack of exercise not only harms the chickens' health but also directly impacts the quality of their products: on the one hand, insufficient exercise leads to poor muscle development, resulting in chicken meat that is less firm and tender, and even affecting its flavor, making it less "succulent" or "tastier"; on the other hand, this unhealthy state is also reflected in the eggs, making it difficult for them to reach optimal quality. Conversely, numerous studies clearly show that chickens that have ample opportunities for exercise have significantly improved health, resulting in healthier chicken meat with firmer texture and better flavor. Furthermore, the eggs they produce generally exhibit superior freshness, shell strength, and nutritional content.

[0004] Therefore, in order to improve the chickens' exercise status, ensure their health, and ultimately enhance the quality and flavor of chicken meat and eggs, the inventors designed a fitness cage that can encourage chickens to move around more and increase their exercise. Utility Model Content

[0064] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Example

[0065] This embodiment provides a cage for promoting exercise and fitness, such as... Figure 1-3 As shown, it includes: a triangular support frame 1, a mesh cage body 2, a perching axis 3, a feeding trough 4, and a feeding brush 5; wherein, the triangular support frame 1 includes a first triangular frame 11, a second triangular frame 12 arranged opposite to the first triangular frame 11, and two connecting beams 13 respectively fixed at the bottom of the first triangular frame 11 and the second triangular frame 12; the mesh cage body 2 is rotatably mounted on the top of the first triangular frame 11 and the second triangular frame 12 at both ends by a rotating structure; the mesh cage body 2 has a movable cavity 21, and a cage opening 22 communicating with the movable cavity 21 is opened on the mesh cage body 2, and a feeding brush is installed on the cage opening 22. The cage has a door 23; a perching shaft 3 passes through the inside of the mesh cage 2, with its two ends rotatably fixed to the tops of the first tripod 11 and the second tripod 12, respectively; a feeding trough 4 is fixedly installed at both ends of the perching shaft 3 at an adjustable angle; the feeding trough 4 has a receiving cavity 41, a feeding inlet 42 communicating with the receiving cavity 41, and a feeding outlet 43 communicating with the receiving cavity 41, with the feeding outlet 43 facing the mesh cage 2; a feeding control brush 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the feeding trough 4, located at the feeding outlet 43, and the feeding control brush 5 has several brush strips 51, the gaps between the brush strips 51 being suitable for controlling the outflow from the feeding outlet 43.

[0066] When using the exercise-enhancing cage of this embodiment, first open the cage door 23, place the chicken into the mesh cage 2, and close the cage door 23. Based on the natural gregarious habits and spatial exploration instincts of poultry, the chickens will instinctively move around, observe the environment, and interact with their companions within the closed mesh cage 2. Simultaneously, due to the dynamic characteristics of the mesh cage 2, the chickens need to constantly adjust their positions to maintain balance and adapt, thus actively moving within the mesh cage 2. Feed pellets are poured into the feed trough 4, using food to further induce the chickens to move within the mesh cage 2. When feed pellets flow out through the feed outlet 43, the feed control brush 5 controls the outflow to prevent excessive feed spillage and waste. During exercise, the chickens can jump onto the perching axis 3 for appropriate rest. This exercise-enhancing cage of the embodiment, through the dynamic characteristics of the mesh cage 2, the chickens' natural instincts, and the inducement of food, can effectively promote chicken movement within the mesh cage 2, increase daily activity levels, thereby ensuring the health of the chickens and improving the quality and flavor of chicken meat and eggs.

[0067] like Figure 4-5 As shown, the rotating structure includes a bearing seat 6, a rotating bearing 61, a rotating disk 62, and a pressure plate 66. The bearing seat 6 is fixedly disposed on the inner side of the top of the first tripod 11 or the second tripod 12. The rotating bearing 61 is fixedly installed inside the bearing seat 6. A rotating shaft 63 is fixedly disposed on the outer wall of the rotating disk 62. The rotating shaft 63 includes a shoulder 64 and a shaft head 65, and the shaft head 65 is fixedly installed on the rotating bearing 61. The pressure plate 66 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the rotating disk 62, forming an installation space between the pressure plate 66 and the rotating disk 62. Both ends of the mesh cage 2 are respectively fixedly installed within the installation space, thereby rotatably mounting the mesh cage 2 onto the triangular support frame 1.

[0068] The pressure plate 66, the rotating plate 62 and the bearing seat 6 are provided with a central through hole. After the two ends of the perching shaft 3 pass through the central through hole, they are fixedly connected to the perching shaft 3 by using fixing bolts passing through the bearing seat 6.

[0069] The feeding trough 4 is fixedly equipped with connecting arms at both ends. After the free end of the connecting arm is sleeved on the perching shaft 3, a connecting bolt is used to pass through the connecting arm and fix it to the perching shaft 3, thereby fixing the feeding trough 4 on the perching shaft 4. If it is necessary to adjust the angle of the feeding trough 4, loosen the fixing bolt outward, rotate the perching shaft 3 to drive the feeding trough 4 to rotate to the appropriate angle, and then tighten the fixing bolt inward to fix the perching shaft 3.

[0070] like Figure 7As shown, the system also includes an egg-catching basket 7. The egg-catching basket 7 is fixedly mounted at both ends on the first tripod 11 and the second tripod 12, respectively, and is located at the bottom of the mesh cage 2. An arc-shaped buffer net 71 is fixedly installed on one side of the egg-catching basket 7, and an arc-shaped guide plate 72 is formed on the opposite side. The egg-catching basket 7 is used to catch eggs. The arc-shaped buffer net 71 and the arc-shaped guide plate 72 can cushion the eggs, preventing them from falling directly into the egg-catching basket 7 from a height and breaking.

[0071] like Figure 8 As shown, the first tripod 11 and the second tripod 12 are provided with manure box placement plates 14 facing each other on their inner sides near the bottom.

The axis of the placement plate 16 forms a 90° angle with the axis of the connecting plate 15. It also includes a manure box 17, which is detachably installed on the placement plate 16 and located below the mesh cage 2. The manure box 17 is used to catch chicken manure, collect it, and prevent it from falling onto the bottom surface, which would be time-consuming and laborious to clean.

[0072] It also includes a cleaning brush 8, which is fixedly mounted on the arc-shaped guide plate 72 and located above the manure box 17. The cleaning brush 8 has a plurality of bristles 81, which are arranged in contact with the mesh cage 2. The cleaning brush 8 is used to remove feces or dirt adhering to the cage, providing a clean and hygienic living environment for the chickens and indirectly reducing the risk of diseases such as avian influenza.

[0073] The exercise and fitness cage in this embodiment is used as follows: When using it, first open the cage door 23, put the chicken into the mesh cage 2 through the cage opening 22, and then close the cage door 23; based on the natural gregarious habits and spatial exploration instincts of poultry, the chicken will be driven by instinct to move around, observe the environment, and interact with its companions in the closed mesh cage 2. At the same time, because the mesh cage 2 has dynamic characteristics, the chicken needs to constantly adjust its position to maintain balance and adapt, thus it will actively move around in the mesh cage 2. Feed pellets are poured into the feed trough 4 through the feed inlet 42, and the food induces the chickens to move further within the mesh cage 2. When the feed pellets flow out through the feed outlet 43, the feed control brush 5 controls the outflow through the brush strip 51 to prevent excessive feed spillage and waste. During the movement, the chickens can jump onto the perching axis 3 to rest appropriately. After the chickens lay eggs, the eggs fall from the mesh cage 2 through the arc-shaped buffer net 71 or the arc-shaped guide plate 72 into the egg-collecting net basket 7. During the rotation of the mesh cage 2, the cleaning brush 8 removes the feces or dirt adhering to the cage and drops them into the feces box 17. Example

[0075] In use, first open the cage door 23, place the chicken into the mesh cage 2 through the cage opening 22, and then close the cage door 23. Based on the natural gregarious habits and spatial exploration instincts of poultry, the chicken will instinctively move around, observe its environment, and interact with its companions within the enclosed mesh cage. Simultaneously, due to the dynamic nature of the mesh cage, the chicken needs to constantly adjust its position to maintain balance and adapt, thus actively moving within the mesh cage 2. When the chicken needs to eat, feed pellets are poured into the feed trough 4. The feed pellets flow out through the feed outlet 43, and the flow rate is controlled by the feed control brush 5 to prevent excessive spillage and waste. During movement, the chicken can jump onto the perch axis 3 for appropriate rest. This exercise-enhancing cage in this embodiment can encourage chickens to move fully, increase their exercise levels, ensure their health, and thus improve the quality and flavor of chicken meat and eggs.

At least two roller support rings 92 are rotatably fixedly installed on the side of the mounting plate 9 facing the mesh cage 2. The rotating ring 93 is fixedly disposed at one end of the mesh cage 2, and the rotating ring 93 is rotatably mounted on the roller support ring 92, thereby rotatably mounting the mesh cage 2 onto the tripod support frame 1.

[0077] The pressure plate 66, the rotating plate 62, and the bearing seat 6 are provided with a central through hole. After the two ends of the perching shaft 3 pass through the central through hole, they are fixedly connected to the perching shaft 3 by using fixing bolts through the bearing seat 6.
