Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of breeding pen technology, specifically a boar breeding pen for animal husbandry. Background Technology
[0002] Boar rearing is a crucial aspect of pig farming, aiming to improve reproductive capacity and breeding quality. Firstly, healthy, high-quality boars must be selected and introduced and isolated appropriately to prevent disease transmission. Feeding management includes a scientifically formulated diet, emphasizing a balanced supply of protein, vitamins, and minerals, avoiding both obesity and emaciation. Traditionally, boars are raised in separate pens with three walls and one feeding enclosure. The fixed height and spacing of the enclosure facilitate manual feeding, but as piglets grow, they are prone to jumping over and escaping. The fixed spacing only meets temporary feeding needs and cannot satisfy the needs of the entire rearing process. Therefore, improvements are needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Depend on Figures 1 to 8The present invention comprises two mounting blocks 1. A first crossbar 2 is fixedly installed between the bottoms of the two mounting blocks 1 on opposite sides. A first railing 3 is fixedly installed at equal intervals on the top of the first crossbar 2. An inverted T-shaped plate 4 is fixedly installed between the upper parts of the two mounting blocks 1. The tops of the first railings 3 are all fixedly connected to the inverted T-shaped plate 4. An adjustable rod 5 is movably installed on the top of each of the two mounting blocks 1. A second crossbar 6 is fixedly installed between the tops of the two adjustable rods 5. A second railing 7 is fixedly installed at equal intervals on the bottom of the second crossbar 6. The second railings 7 are movably connected to... The T-shaped plate 4 is inserted through the wall, and the second railing 7 is staggered with the first railing 3. The staggered arrangement of the second railing 7 and the first railing 3 can effectively reduce the gap and prevent the piglets from escaping. The surface of the first railing 3 is movably fitted with a movable sleeve 8. The movable sleeve 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjacent second railing 7 by a connecting block 9. Three fixing blocks 10 are fixedly installed at equal distances on the opposite side of the two mounting blocks 1. The middle of the three fixing blocks 10 is provided with bolt holes. The mounting blocks 1 can be installed and fixed by connecting them to the wall through the bolt holes with expansion bolts.
[0021] Each of the two mounting blocks 1 has a vertical groove 11 on one side opposite to the other. Each of the two vertical grooves 11 has a sliding groove 12 inside. The bottom of each of the two adjusting rods 5 extends through the top of the two mounting blocks 1 and into the two sliding grooves 12 respectively. Each of the two sliding grooves 12 has a slider 13 slidably installed inside. The bottom of each of the two adjusting rods 5 is fixedly connected to the top of each of the two sliders 13 respectively. Each of the two sliders 13 has a reinforcing block 14 fixedly installed on one side opposite to the other, which is slidably installed inside the vertical groove 11. Each of the two reinforcing blocks 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjacent second railing 7 respectively.
[0022] Two adjusting rods 5 have vertical grooves 15 inside the slide groove 12. A toothed plate 16 is fixedly installed inside each of the two vertical grooves 15. The upper part of each of the two mounting blocks 1 has a slot 17 that communicates with the slide groove 12. The two ends of the inverted T-shaped plate 4 have mounting openings 18 that are aligned with the two slots 17. An adjusting shaft 19 is rotatably installed between the two mounting openings 18 via a bearing. Gears 20 are fixedly installed on the surface of the adjusting shaft 19 inside the mounting opening 18. The two gears 20 are respectively connected to the opposing toothed plate 16 through the slots 17. One end of the adjusting shaft 19 extends to the outside of one end of the inverted T-shaped plate 4 and a rotating wheel 21 is fixedly installed thereon, so that the height can be effectively adjusted.
[0023] Specifically, rotating the rotating wheel 21 causes the adjusting shaft 19 to rotate, which in turn drives the two gears 20 to rotate. The rotation of the two gears 20 drives the two toothed plates 16 to move upward, which in turn drives the two adjusting rods 5 to move upward. The upward movement of the two adjusting rods 5 drives the two sliders 13, the two reinforcing blocks 14, and the second crossbar 6 to move upward. The upward movement of the second crossbar 6 and the two reinforcing blocks 14, through the moving sleeve 8 and the connecting block 9, drives all the second fence bars 7 to move upward, thereby adjusting the height of the fence to prevent adult pigs from climbing over the fence and escaping. At the same time, lowering the height of the fence makes it easier for manual feeding operations.
[0024] A hollow tube 22 is fixedly installed at the edge of the rotating wheel 21. A first limiting slider 23 and a second limiting slider 24 are slidably installed inside the hollow tube 22. A spring 25 is fixedly installed between the first limiting slider 23 and the second limiting slider 24. A connecting pin 26 is fixedly installed at one end of the second limiting slider 24, extending through and to the outside of one end of the hollow tube 22. A one-way sliding triangular right-angle block 27 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting pin 26. The one-way sliding triangular right-angle blocks 27 are distributed in a ring at equal intervals around the center of the rotating wheel 21. An arc-shaped groove 28 is opened in a ring at equal intervals at one end of the inverted T-shaped plate 4. The inside of the arc-shaped groove 28 is high and low and has an inclined structure. The one-way sliding triangular right-angle blocks 27 are movably inserted into the inside of the arc-shaped groove 28. A screw 29 is threadedly connected to the other end of the hollow tube 22. One end of the screw 29 is rotatably connected to the first limiting slider 23 through a bearing. An adjusting wheel 30 is fixedly connected to the other end of the screw 29, so that the raised fence can maintain stability.
[0025] Specifically, when the fence is raised, the rotation of the wheel 21 will drive the connecting pin 26 and the one-way sliding triangular block 27 to move in a circle, so that the one-way sliding triangular block 27 slides from the lower part of the arc groove 28 to the higher part through the inclined surface. During the sliding, the one-way sliding triangular block 27 will be squeezed and squeezed by the connecting pin 26 to the second limit slider 24, which will eventually compress the spring 25. At the same time, through the elastic restoring force of the spring 25, the one-way sliding triangular block 27 will be locked into the arc groove 28 again and cannot move in the opposite direction, thus effectively ensuring the stability of the lifting adjustment.
[0026] When it is necessary to lower the height of the fence, the screw 29 is rotated by rotating the adjusting wheel 30. The rotation of the screw 29 will drive the first limiting slider 23 to move. The movement of the first limiting slider 23 will drive the second limiting slider 24, the connecting pin 26 and the one-way sliding triangular right-angle block 27 to move through the spring 25. Finally, the one-way sliding triangular right-angle block 27 will move out of the arc groove 28. Then, the rotating wheel 21 can be rotated in the opposite direction to lower the height of the fence.
[0027] This boar pen features adjustable height and spacing. The height adjustment facilitates manual feeding while preventing the boars from jumping over and escaping at different stages. The spacing adjustment prevents piglets from escaping and provides ventilation and heat dissipation during the later stages of raising adult boars. Furthermore, this boar pen has a simple structural design, is easy to use and operate, and offers stable and reliable adjustments. Its performance meets the needs of boars throughout their entire rearing process, from piglet to adult.
