Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of livestock and poultry breeding equipment, specifically to a height adjustment structure for water feeding in livestock and poultry cages. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional free-range chickens rely on the natural environment and manual management, resulting in low stocking density, low efficiency, and susceptibility to weather and disease. In contrast, modern factory-style chicken coops can achieve high-density, large-scale production through industrialized facilities. They can not only control the environment automatically, such as adjusting temperature, humidity, ventilation, and lighting, but also automate feeding, watering, egg collection, and manure removal.

[0003] The inventors of this case discovered the following problems in the actual production of the equipment: the manure belt is easily damaged during the process of chickens leaving the cage, the repeated operation of manually opening and closing the cage door is inefficient, and the lack of effective cleaning methods for the manure belt causes slippage during operation. In response to the above problems, the inventors of this case made improved designs and filed patent applications for each. This case is to provide technical protection for solving the problem that the cage cannot accurately adjust the watering height according to the growth height of the chickens.

[0004] Chickens at different growth stages have different water height requirements. Existing equipment relies on manual observation and adjustment of the water pipe or tray height, which lacks a precise adjustment mechanism and is prone to height mismatch, resulting in inconvenience for livestock and poultry to drink water or waste of water resources, which needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a livestock and poultry cage watering height adjustment structure that can precisely adjust the watering height according to the growth stage of chickens, addressing the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model discloses a height adjustment structure for feeding water in livestock and poultry cages, including a frame on which cages for raising livestock and poultry are installed. Its structural features include: a pull line with a spring connected to one end, the spring mounted on the frame; a traction device for raising and lowering the pull line installed on the frame; the other end of the pull line connected to the traction device; a suspension line connected to the pull line; a pulley installed on the frame; the suspension line wound around the pulley with one end extending downwards; and a water supply pipe with a drinking tray for feeding water to livestock and poultry installed on it. The lower end of the suspension line is connected to the water supply pipe, and the water supply pipe is suspended from the frame by the suspension line.

[0007] When the pull line is extended or retracted, the spring absorbs tension fluctuations in the pull line, ensuring that the pull line remains taut. When the traction device pulls the pull line, the pull line moves the suspension line, causing the other end of the suspension line to rise or fall, thereby raising or lowering the water pipe and adjusting the height of the drinking tray. Through the cooperation of the pull line, spring, pulley, and traction device, the height of the drinking tray can be flexibly adjusted to adapt to the different watering heights of chickens at different growth stages.

[0008] The traction device includes a base, on which a rotating shaft is rotatably mounted. The end of the pull cable away from the spring is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft. A worm gear is mounted on the rotating shaft, and a worm meshing with the worm gear is mounted on the base. The worm gear has a large transmission ratio, allowing for fine-tuning of the pull cable length and precise control of the drinking height. The worm gear transmission controls the rotation of the rotating shaft, enabling the pull cable to be extended and retracted. The engagement of the worm gear and the worm prevents the rotating shaft from reversing, ensuring a reliable and constant height.

[0009] A handle is mounted on the worm gear for turning it. The handle directly drives the worm gear to rotate, eliminating the need for tools and making operation more convenient.

[0010] A guard plate is installed on the shaft, with the guard plate and the turbine spaced apart. The cable is wound between the guard plate and the turbine. The guard plate limits the extent to which the cable is wound between the turbines, preventing derailment or jamming.

[0011] The cage is equipped with a partition net with a clearance passage that extends vertically. The water supply pipe passes through the partition net through the clearance passage. The partition net is used to divide different breeding areas, and the clearance passage allows the water supply pipe to be raised and lowered smoothly.

[0012] A support frame is mounted on the machine frame, the partition screen is mounted on the support frame, and pulleys are mounted on the support frame. The support frame simultaneously secures the partition screen and the pulleys, thereby reducing the number of independent components on the machine frame.

[0013] A support pipe is installed on the frame, and a pressure regulator is installed on the support pipe. The outlet of the pressure regulator is connected to the water supply pipe through a pipeline. The inlet of the pressure regulator is connected to the water source through a pipeline. The pressure regulator is used to control the water pressure in the water supply pipe to ensure that the water is dispensed evenly from the drinking tray and to avoid waste or insufficient water supply.

[0014] At least two suspension lines are installed, and two pulleys are mounted on the frame, spaced apart from each other. The two suspension lines are wound around the two pulleys respectively. The two suspension lines distribute the weight of the water pipe and prevent it from tilting to one side.

[0015] The drinking tray is a nipple-type drinking fountain, with multiple nipple-type drinking fountains spaced apart from each other. The drinking tray is an existing product; when the water in the tray is low, it can be automatically replenished from the water supply pipe.

[0016] One end of the suspension line is fixedly connected to the pull line, and the other end is connected to the water supply pipe. When the pull line is extended or retracted, the pull line moves the suspension line, causing the lower end of the suspension line to rise or fall, thereby raising or lowering the water supply pipe.

[0017] In summary, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: when the pull line is extended or retracted, the spring can absorb the tension fluctuations of the pull line, ensuring that the pull line is always taut. When the traction device pulls the pull line, the pull line drives the suspension line to move. At this time, the other end of the suspension line rises or falls, thereby raising or lowering the water supply pipe, realizing the height adjustment of the drinking tray. Through the cooperation of the pull line, spring, pulley and traction device, the height of the drinking tray can be flexibly adjusted, thus adapting to the watering height of chickens at different growth stages. It realizes flexible and stable adjustment of the drinking height of livestock and poultry, and has the advantages of convenient operation, durability and adaptability, making it especially suitable for large-scale intensive farming scenarios.

[0025] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit its scope.

[0026] The following is a description of preferred embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0027] A height-adjustable structure for watering livestock and poultry cages includes a frame 1, on which cages 8 for enclosing livestock and poultry are mounted. It also includes a pull line 4, one end of which is connected to a spring 5, which is mounted on the frame 1. The frame 1 is further equipped with a traction device 10 for raising and lowering the pull line 4, the other end of which is connected to the traction device 10. A suspension line 6 is connected to the pull line 4. A pulley 7 is mounted on the frame 1, and the suspension line 6 is wound around the pulley 7 with one end extending downwards. The structure also includes a water supply pipe 2, on which a drinking tray 3 for feeding water to livestock and poultry is mounted. The lower end of the suspension line 6 is connected to the water supply pipe 2, and the water supply pipe 2 is suspended from the frame 1 by the suspension line 6. (See attached diagram.) Figure 1 When the pull line 4 is extended or retracted, the spring 5 can absorb the tension fluctuation of the pull line 4, ensuring that the pull line 4 is always taut. When the traction device 10 pulls the pull line 4, the pull line 4 drives the suspension line 6 to move. At this time, the other end of the suspension line 6 rises or falls, thereby driving the water pipe 2 to rise or fall, realizing the height adjustment of the drinking tray 3. Through the cooperation of the pull line 4, spring 5, pulley 7 and traction device 10, the height of the drinking tray 3 can be flexibly adjusted, thus adapting to the watering height of chickens at different growth stages.

[0028] See attached document Figure 6 The traction device 10 includes a base 14, on which a rotating shaft 15 is rotatably mounted. The end of the pull cable 4 away from the spring 5 is fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 15. A worm gear 17 is mounted on the rotating shaft 15, and a worm 16 meshing with the worm gear 17 is mounted on the base 14. The worm 16 has a large transmission ratio, allowing for fine-tuning of the pull cable 4 length and precise control of the drinking height. The rotating shaft 15 is rotated using the worm gear 16 and worm gear 17 transmission, enabling the pull cable 4 to be extended and retracted. The engagement of the worm gear 17 with the worm 16 prevents the rotating shaft 15 from reversing, ensuring a reliable and fixed height. A handle 13 is mounted on the worm gear 16 for rotating it. The handle 13 directly drives the worm gear 16, eliminating the need for tools and making operation more convenient. A guard plate 18 is mounted on the rotating shaft 15, spaced apart from the worm gear 17. The pull cable 4 is wound between the guard plate 18 and the worm gear 17. The guard plate 18 limits the winding range of the pull cable 4 between the worm gears 17, preventing derailment or jamming.

[0029] See attached document Figure 4 The cage 8 is equipped with a partition net 19, which has an obstacle avoidance passage 11 extending vertically. The water supply pipe 2 passes through the partition net 19 via the obstacle avoidance passage 11. The partition net 19 is used to divide different breeding areas, and the obstacle avoidance passage 11 allows the water supply pipe 2 to be raised and lowered smoothly. (See attached diagram) Figure 2 A support frame 12 is mounted on the frame 1, a partition net 19 is mounted on the support frame 12, and a pulley 7 is mounted on the support frame 12. The support frame 12 simultaneously fixes the partition net 19 and the pulley 7, thereby reducing the number of independent components of the frame 1.

[0030] See attached document Figure 5A support pipe 20 is installed on the frame 1, and a pressure regulator 9 is installed on the support pipe 20. The outlet of the pressure regulator 9 is connected to the water supply pipe 2 through a pipeline. The inlet of the pressure regulator 9 is connected to the water source through a pipeline. The pressure regulator 9 is used to control the water pressure of the water supply pipe 2 to ensure that the water from the drinking tray 3 is even and to avoid waste or insufficient water supply.

[0031] See attached document Figure 1 At least two suspension lines 6 are provided. Two pulleys 7 are installed on the frame 1, spaced apart. The two suspension lines 6 are wound around the two pulleys 7 respectively. The two suspension lines 6 distribute the weight of the water supply pipe 2, preventing unilateral tilting. The drinking tray 3 is a nipple-type drinking device, with multiple nipple-type drinking devices spaced apart. The drinking tray 3 is an existing product; when the water in the tray is insufficient, water can be automatically replenished from the water supply pipe 2. (See attached diagram.) Figure 2 One end of the suspension line 6 is fixedly connected to the pull line 4, and the other end of the suspension line 6 is connected to the water supply pipe 2. When the pull line 4 is extended or retracted, the pull line 4 drives the suspension line 6 to move. At this time, the lower end of the suspension line 6 rises or falls, thereby causing the water supply pipe 2 to rise or fall.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
