Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of poultry farming equipment technology, and in particular to a broiler cage. Background Technology

[0002] Broilers are the most commonly raised poultry by humans. Domestic chickens originated from wild junglefowl, and their domestication history dates back at least 4,000 years, but chicken meat and eggs did not become mass-produced commodities until around 1800. Broilers need to be raised in broiler cages.

[0003] Currently, existing broiler cages require manual feeding of broilers into feed troughs. Manual feeding not only consumes a lot of labor, but the amount of feed for broilers is often controlled by experience, which is not suitable for scientific farming. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the problems of existing broiler cage farming, which relies on manual feeding and cannot provide quantitative and scientific feeding.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a broiler cage frame, including a cage frame body, a PLC controller installed on the top of the cage frame body, an L-shaped support block on one side of the PLC controller, two sets of L-shaped support blocks, the two sets of L-shaped support blocks are welded to the top of the cage frame body, a guide frame is welded between the two sets of L-shaped support blocks, a storage trough is fixedly connected to the opening at the top of the guide frame, a feeding trough is provided below the guide frame, a weight sensor is installed at the bottom of the inner side of the feeding trough, a first mounting plate is welded to the top of the cage frame body, a drive motor is fixedly connected to the top of the first mounting plate, the drive motor is electrically connected to the PLC controller, the output shaft of the drive motor passes through the first mounting plate and is welded with a threaded screw, a screw nut is connected to the outer wall of the threaded screw, the screw nut is fixedly connected to the inside of the L-shaped baffle, a movable groove is opened inside the guide frame, and the L-shaped baffle is slidably connected to the movable groove.

[0006] Preferably, when the feed in the trough is insufficient, and the weight sensed by the weight sensor is lower than the set minimum value, the weight sensor transmits a signal to the PLC controller. Upon receiving the signal, the PLC controller controls the drive motor to start. When the drive motor runs, it drives the screw to rotate through the output shaft. When the screw rotates, it causes the L-shaped baffle where the screw nut is located to move downward. Originally, the L-shaped baffle was located at the top of the inner side of the guide frame. When the L-shaped baffle moves downward to the opening of the movable trough, the guide frame can guide the feed in the storage trough down and into the feed trough. When the amount introduced reaches the maximum value set by the weight sensor, the PLC controller receives the signal again and controls the drive motor to run again. This causes the L-shaped baffle to move upward and block the flow opening, thus achieving the effect of automatic feed dispensing. There is no need for frequent manual feeding; only the storage trough needs to be filled periodically, which reduces the burden of manpower. At the same time, the amount of feed dispensed each time is relatively fixed, so that the device achieves the effect of scientific quantitative feeding.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the cage body is fixedly connected with four sets of support legs.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the cage frame body has an inner groove, and a cover plate is installed inside the inner groove.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the storage tank is provided with a feed inlet.

[0010] Preferably, one end of the threaded screw is connected to a bearing, which is fixedly connected inside the second mounting plate, which is welded to the side of the cage body.

[0011] Preferably, the L-shaped baffle has a sliding hole inside, and a sliding rod is slidably connected inside the sliding hole. The sliding rod is welded between the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate.

[0012] Preferably, two sets of fixing blocks are welded to the side of the feed guide frame near the main body of the cage. The two sets of fixing blocks are connected to a water conveying pipe. Multiple sets of water nozzles are installed on the outer wall of the water conveying pipe, and the multiple sets of water nozzles extend into the interior of the main body of the cage.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This type of broiler cage automatically dispenses feed when the feed in the trough is insufficient. When the weight sensor detects a weight below the set minimum value, it sends a signal to the PLC controller. Upon receiving the signal, the PLC controller starts the drive motor. The drive motor then drives a screw rod via its output shaft. This screw rod rotates, causing an L-shaped baffle (located at the top of the guide frame) to descend. Originally positioned at the top of the guide frame, the L-shaped baffle moves downwards to the opening of the movable trough, allowing the guide frame to direct feed from the storage trough into the feed trough. When the amount of feed delivered reaches the maximum value set by the weight sensor, the PLC controller receives another signal and controls the drive motor to run again. This causes the L-shaped baffle to move upwards, blocking the flow. This achieves automatic feed dispensing, eliminating the need for frequent manual feeding. Only periodic refilling of the storage trough is required, reducing manpower. Furthermore, the consistent amount of feed dispensed each time ensures scientifically measured feeding.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides an embodiment: a broiler cage frame, including a cage frame body 1, a PLC controller 4 installed on the top of the cage frame body 1, an L-shaped support block 5 provided on one side of the PLC controller 4, two sets of L-shaped support blocks 5, the two sets of L-shaped support blocks 5 are welded to the top of the cage frame body 1, a feed guide frame 6 is welded between the two sets of L-shaped support blocks 5, a feed storage trough 7 is fixedly connected to the opening at the top of the feed guide frame 6, a feeding trough 9 is provided below the feed guide frame 6, and a weight sensor is installed at the bottom of the inner side of the feeding trough 9. The cage body 10 has a first mounting plate 11 welded to its top. A drive motor 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the first mounting plate 11. The drive motor 12 is electrically connected to the PLC controller 4. The output shaft of the drive motor 12 passes through the first mounting plate 11 and is welded with a threaded screw 13. A screw nut 16 is connected to the outer wall of the screw 13. The screw nut 16 is fixedly connected inside the L-shaped baffle 17. The guide frame 6 has a movable groove 20 inside. The L-shaped baffle 17 is slidably connected to the movable groove 20. The PLC controller 4 receives the numerical signal transmitted by the weight sensor 10 and starts the drive motor 12. The feed guide frame 6 is used to guide the feed, the weight sensor 10 is used to measure the weight of the feed in the feed trough 9, and the storage trough 7 is used to store the feed. This allows the feed guide frame 6 to guide the feed in the storage trough 7 into the feed trough 9 for the broilers to eat. The output shaft of the drive motor 12 drives the screw 13 to rotate. When the screw 13 rotates, it drives the L-shaped baffle 17, where the screw nut 16 is located, to move downward. Originally, the L-shaped baffle 17 was located at the top inside the feed guide frame 6. When the L-shaped baffle 17 moves downward to the opening of the movable trough 20, the feed guide frame 6 can guide the feed in the storage trough 7 down and into the feed trough 9. When the amount introduced reaches the maximum value set by the weight sensor 10, the PLC controller 4 receives the signal again and controls the drive motor 12 to run again. This causes the L-shaped baffle 17 to move upward and block the flow, thus achieving the effect of automatic feed dispensing.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 In this embodiment, four sets of support legs 2 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the cage frame body 1; an inner groove is opened on the top of the cage frame body 1, and a cover plate 3 is installed in the inner groove; a feed inlet 8 is opened on the top of the storage tank 7; the four sets of support legs 2 are used to support the cage frame body 1; the cover plate 3 can be opened to take out and put in broilers; and the feed inlet 8 is used to put feed into the storage tank 7.

[0023] Please see Figure 3In this embodiment, one end of the threaded screw 13 is connected to a bearing 14, which is fixedly connected inside the second mounting plate 15. The second mounting plate 15 is welded to the side of the cage body 1. The L-shaped baffle 17 has a sliding hole 18 inside, and a sliding rod 19 is slidably connected inside the sliding hole 18. The sliding rod 19 is welded between the first mounting plate 11 and the second mounting plate 15. The bearing 14 causes the threaded screw 13 to rotate inside it, and the sliding hole 18 causes the sliding rod 19 to slide inside it. The sliding rod 19 is used to guide the movement of the L-shaped baffle 17.

[0024] Please see Figure 2 In this embodiment, two sets of fixing blocks 21 are welded to the side of the feed guide frame 6 near the cage body 1. The two sets of fixing blocks 21 are connected to a water conveying pipe 22. Multiple sets of water nozzles 23 are installed on the outer wall of the water conveying pipe 22. The multiple sets of water nozzles 23 extend into the cage body 1. The two sets of fixing blocks 21 are used to fix the water conveying pipe 22. The water conveying pipe 22 is connected to the water supply pipe, so that water is delivered to the multiple sets of water nozzles 23. The mouth of the multiple sets of water nozzles 23 contains ball bearings, so that water can be automatically dispensed when the broiler licks the ball bearings, thereby providing drinking water for the broiler.

[0025] During operation, when the feed in the trough 9 is insufficient, and the weight sensed by the weight sensor 10 is lower than the set minimum value, the weight sensor 10 transmits a signal to the PLC controller 4. Upon receiving the signal, the PLC controller 4 controls the drive motor 12 to start. The drive motor 12, while running, drives the threaded screw 13 to rotate via its output shaft. As the threaded screw 13 rotates, it causes the L-shaped baffle 17, where the screw nut 16 is located, to descend. Originally, the L-shaped baffle 17 was positioned at the top inside the guide frame 6. When the L-shaped baffle 17 moves downwards to the movable trough 20... When the feed is fed into the trough, the guide frame 6 can guide the feed in the storage trough 7 down and into the feeding trough 9. When the amount fed into the trough reaches the maximum value set by the weight sensor 10, the PLC controller 4 receives a signal again and controls the drive motor 12 to run again. This causes the L-shaped baffle 17 to move upward and block the flow, thus achieving the effect of automatic feed feeding. There is no need for frequent manual feeding. Just fill the storage trough 7 periodically, which reduces the burden of manpower. At the same time, the amount of feed fed each time is relatively fixed, so that the device can achieve the effect of scientific quantitative feeding.

[0026] Through the above steps, the feed in the feed guide frame 6 can be controlled by the up and down movement of the L-shaped baffle 17, thereby achieving the effect of automatic feeding, reducing the burden of manpower, and making quantitative feeding more scientific, so as to solve the problem that the existing broiler cage farming has the problem of manpower consumption and inability to feed quantitatively and scientifically by manually feeding.
