Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aquaculture equipment technology, specifically to a manure cleaning mechanism for chicken farming equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In modern chicken farms, effective removal of chicken manure is crucial for maintaining environmental hygiene and reducing the spread of disease. Traditional methods mainly include manual shoveling and simple mechanical scraper equipment. While these methods can replace manual labor to some extent, they both have significant shortcomings.
[0003] Firstly, manual cleaning is inefficient, labor-intensive, and prone to causing pollution from splashing feces. While mechanical cleaning devices can partially replace manual labor, the equipment is fixed and difficult to move flexibly to adapt to multiple chicken houses. Furthermore, the cleaning process requires frequent adjustment of the scraper position or manual replacement of the collection container, which is cumbersome and time-consuming, seriously affecting the operational efficiency of chicken farms.
[0004] For example, although existing track-mounted manure scrapers can move scrapers along tracks via motors, the collection plates are fixed in place, requiring the machine to be stopped and disassembled during cleaning, leading to work interruptions. Furthermore, the scrapers and collection plates lack a pressure adjustment mechanism, which can easily cause equipment deformation or residual manure during long-term use, making it difficult to guarantee the cleaning effect.
[0005] Therefore, we propose a manure cleaning mechanism for chicken farming equipment to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content
[0006] This utility model provides a manure cleaning mechanism for chicken farming equipment, which can solve the problems of low cleaning efficiency and poor flexibility in the existing technology for multiple chicken houses.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] A manure cleaning mechanism for chicken farming equipment includes a chicken coop body and an outer shell. The outer shell houses a cleaning mechanism, which includes a C-shaped mounting plate fixedly mounted on the inner top surface of the outer shell. A servo motor is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the C-shaped mounting plate. A lead screw is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor. A moving block is threaded onto the lead screw. Three connecting rods are fixedly connected to the moving block. Scrapers are fixedly connected to the three corresponding connecting rods. Two L-shaped side plates are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell. A collection plate is placed on the corresponding two L-shaped side plates. A collection box is placed on one side of each L-shaped side plate. Lifting components are provided on both L-shaped side plates.
[0009] The lifting assembly includes two springs, both of which are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the L-shaped side plate. The bottom ends of the two springs are fixedly connected to an H-shaped top plate. A lifting cylinder is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom surface of the H-shaped top plate, and the bottom surface of the lifting cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the outer shell.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are:
[0011] This utility model, through its cleaning mechanism and lifting components, enables a scraper to move on a collection plate, scraping the manure on the plate into a collection box for collection, thereby improving manure cleaning efficiency. It is suitable for use in multiple chicken coops, enhancing practicality. A temporary baffle can be inserted into a chute before cleaning the collection plate, preventing manure from falling directly to the ground while the collection plate is being cleaned inside the outer casing. Four casters and a push rod allow workers to move the cleaning equipment to the next work area, further improving work efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments.
[0018] Example 1:
[0019] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0020] A manure cleaning mechanism for chicken farming equipment includes a chicken coop body 1 and an outer shell 2. The outer shell 2 houses the cleaning mechanism, which includes a C-shaped mounting plate 3 fixedly mounted on the inner top surface of the outer shell 2. A servo motor 4 is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the C-shaped mounting plate 3. A lead screw 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 4. A moving block 6 is threaded onto the lead screw 5. Three connecting rods 7 are fixedly connected to the moving block 6, and scrapers 8 are fixedly connected to the corresponding three connecting rods 7. Two L-shaped side plates 9 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell 2. A collection plate 10 is placed on the corresponding two L-shaped side plates 9, and a collection box 11 is placed on one side of each L-shaped side plate 9. Each L-shaped side plate 9 is equipped with a lifting assembly; the lifting assembly includes two springs 12. Two springs 12 are fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the L-shaped side plate 9. The bottom ends of the two springs 12 are fixedly connected to an H-shaped top plate 13. A lifting cylinder 14 is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom surface of the H-shaped top plate 13. The bottom surface of the lifting cylinder 14 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the outer shell 2. Two limiting rods 19 are fixedly connected to the C-shaped mounting plate 3. The limiting rods 19 pass through the moving block 6 and are slidably connected to the moving block 6. A stop bar 20 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the L-shaped side plate 9. Folding tubes 21 are fixedly connected to both sides of the moving block 6. The other ends of the two folding tubes 21 are fixedly connected to the C-shaped mounting plate 3. A frame plate 24 is fixedly connected to the other side surface of the outer shell 2. The position of the frame plate 24 corresponds to the position of the temporary baffle 17.
[0021] With the above technical solution, after the manure produced in the chicken house body 1 falls onto the collection plate 10, the workers push the outer shell 2 to one side of the collection plate 10 using the push rod 22. Then, the workers move one end of the collection plate 10 onto the frame plate 24 and push the collection plate 10 onto the two L-shaped side plates 9 inside the outer shell 2. The collection plate 10 is then positioned by the limit rod 20 to ensure that it reaches the cleaning work area. The lifting cylinder 14 is then remotely activated to lift the two L-shaped side plates 9 on the H-shaped top plate 13. At the same time, the collection plate 10 on the two L-shaped side plates 9 is also lifted to contact the scraper 8. By excessively lifting the lifting cylinder 14, the collection plate 10 can be pressed onto the scraper 8, allowing the spring 12 to be slightly compressed. Then, the servo motor 4 is remotely activated to drive the lead screw 5 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 5 can drive the moving block 6 to move linearly on the U-shaped mounting plate 3, thereby driving the scraper 8 to move on the collection plate 10 and scrape the manure on the collection plate 10 into the collection box 11 for manure collection.
[0022] Example 2:
[0023] Please see Figure 1-4Furthermore, in conjunction with Embodiment 1, it is further found that the bottom surface of the chicken coop body 1 is fixedly connected to two upright plates 15, the outer surface of the upright plates 15 is provided with a sliding groove 16, a temporary baffle 17 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 16, and the two sides of the temporary baffle 17 are fixedly connected to side strips 18 that are adapted to the sliding groove 16; a push rod 22 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the outer shell 2, and four universal wheels 23 are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the outer shell 2.
[0024] With the above technical solution, before cleaning the collection plate 10, a temporary baffle 17 is inserted into the chute 16, so that during the time when the collection plate 10 is placed into the outer casing 2 for cleaning, feces are prevented from falling directly to the ground. With the cooperation of four casters 23 and push rod 22, the staff can move the cleaning equipment to the next work area, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0025] The working principle of the manure cleaning mechanism in this chicken farming equipment:
[0026] First, after the manure produced inside the chicken coop 1 falls onto the collection plate 10, the worker pushes the outer shell 2 to one side of the collection plate 10 using the push rod 22. Then, a temporary baffle 17 is inserted into the chute 16 to prevent manure from falling directly to the ground while the collection plate 10 is being placed inside the outer shell 2 for cleaning. Next, the worker moves one end of the collection plate 10 onto the frame plate 24 and pushes it onto the two L-shaped side plates 9 inside the outer shell 2. The baffle 20 limits the collection plate 10's position within the cleaning area. Then, the lifting cylinder 14 is remotely activated to lift the two L-shaped side plates 9 on the H-shaped top plate 13. Simultaneously, the collection plate 10 on the two L-shaped side plates 9 is also lifted to contact the scraper 8. The lifting cylinder 14 is then activated. Excessive lifting of cylinder 14 allows the collecting plate 10 to press against the scraper 8, slightly compressing the spring 12. Then, remotely starting the servo motor 4 drives the lead screw 5 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 5 drives the moving block 6 to move linearly on the C-shaped mounting plate 3, thereby moving the scraper 8 on the collecting plate 10 to scrape the feces on the collecting plate 10 into the collecting box 11 for feces collection. After cleaning the collecting plate 10, the collecting plate 10 is removed and returned to its original position. Then, the temporary baffle 17 is pulled out and placed on the top surface of the outer shell 2. Finally, remotely starting the servo motor 4 and lifting cylinder 14 again moves both L-shaped side plates 9 and scraper 8 to their original positions, allowing the cleaning of the next chicken house body 1 to continue.
[0027] The above-disclosed embodiments are only a few specific examples of the present utility model. However, the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
