Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of egg-laying hen breeding technology, and more specifically to a perch for egg-laying hen breeding. Background Technology

[0002] Laying hens have a natural tendency to perch at elevated positions. A well-designed perch can meet their behavioral needs, effectively reducing stress and ground contamination, which is crucial for ensuring hen health and improving egg production. However, modern laying hen breeds, due to long-term selective breeding, have significantly degraded their flying ability, making them ill-suited to the climbing requirements of traditional perches.

[0003] Traditional perches often employ a multi-layered horizontal bar structure. While the height difference between adjacent layers provides adequate space for laying hens, heavier laying hens and vulnerable groups (such as young or sick hens) still face difficulties climbing. These hens need to jump or climb frequently, which can easily lead to foot joint injuries. Furthermore, individuals forced to perch on the ground are more susceptible to fecal contamination, increasing their risk of disease infection. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a perch for laying hens, which improves the perch convenience and health of laying hens.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A perch for laying hens includes two symmetrically arranged bases. A trapezoidal frame is fixedly mounted on the top of each base. Multiple perching poles are fixedly connected between the two trapezoidal frames. Connecting rods are horizontally fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom of each trapezoidal frame. A damping shaft is rotatably mounted between the two perching poles located on the same side of the trapezoidal frame. Connecting plates are fixedly sleeved at both ends of the damping shaft. Multiple auxiliary climbing plates are fixedly connected between the two connecting plates. The auxiliary climbing plates are distributed in a stepped manner on both sides of the base.

[0007] Furthermore, a manure collection box is placed between the two bases.

[0008] Furthermore, the auxiliary climbing board is inclined downward toward the manure collection box.

[0009] Furthermore, a horizontal handle is provided at one end of the manure collection box.

[0010] Furthermore, a lifting handle is provided on the outer side of the connecting plate.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] In this application, the auxiliary climbing board adopts a stepped distribution, which allows laying hens to replace a single high-energy jump by climbing multiple short distances. This makes it easier for larger laying hens and vulnerable groups to perch on the perch, thus improving the perch convenience and health of laying hens. Attached Figure Description

[0016] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a perch for laying hens includes two symmetrically arranged bases 1. A trapezoidal frame 2 is fixedly installed on the top of each base 1. Multiple perching poles 3 are fixedly connected between the two trapezoidal frames 2. Connecting rods 4 are horizontally fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom of each trapezoidal frame 2. A damping shaft 5 is rotatably installed between the two perching poles 3 located on the same side of the trapezoidal frame 2. Connecting plates 6 are fixedly sleeved on both ends of each damping shaft 5. Multiple auxiliary climbing plates 7 are fixedly connected between the two connecting plates 6. The auxiliary climbing plates 7 are distributed in a stepped manner on both sides of the base 1.

[0017] The laying hens climb the auxiliary climbing board 7 step by step from the ground. After reaching the highest point of the auxiliary climbing board 7, the laying hens can jump short distances and short heights to the lowest perching pole 3. They can then jump to the higher perching pole 3 multiple times to rest. By setting up the auxiliary climbing board 7, the larger laying hens and the vulnerable groups can more easily perch on the perching rack, improving the perching convenience and health of the laying hens.

[0018] A manure collection box 8 is placed between the two bases 1.

[0019] The auxiliary climbing board 7 is inclined downward toward the manure collection box 8; the inclined setting of the auxiliary climbing board 7 ensures that the manure slides directly into the manure collection box 8, avoiding contamination of the climbing board surface 7.

[0020] The manure collection box 8 is provided with a horizontal handle 9 at one end; the manure collection box 8 is equipped with a horizontal handle 9, which makes it easy to pull the manure collection box 8 out from between the two bases 1 for cleaning.

[0021] A lifting handle 10 is provided on the outer side of the connecting plate 6. When replacing the manure collection box 8, the operator can use the lifting handle 10 to assist in rotating the connecting plate 6, and lift the connecting plate 6 around the damping shaft 5 to facilitate the operation of the manure collection box 8 and pull the manure collection box 8 out between the two bases 1.

[0022] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
