[0025] Reference Figures 1-4 One embodiment provided by this utility model:

[0026] A multi-layer laying hen rack includes three laying hen racks 1. Each of the three racks 1 has a first manure guide hole 9 extending through its top. A manure collection plate 12 is fixedly installed near the bottom of each of the three racks 1, close to the egg collection rack 5. Second manure guide holes 10 are formed inside each of the three manure collection plates 12. Rubber rings 11 are fixedly installed inside the top of each of the three first manure guide holes 9. The bottom plates of two of the three racks 1 have locking grooves 13, and four locking plates 6 are evenly rotated and positioned on each rack. One laying hen per rack 1... Four support columns 7 are evenly fixedly installed on the bottom plate of the rack 1. Anti-slip plates 8 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the four support columns 7. The three egg collection racks 5 are raised in the middle, and the manure collection plate 12 is recessed in the middle. The diameter of the top plate of the three egg racks 1 is the same as the inner diameter of the locking groove 13. The first manure guide hole 9 and the second manure guide hole 10 have the same circumference. The first manure guide hole 9 penetrates from the upper surface of the top plate of the egg rack 1 to the lower surface of the egg collection rack 5. The second manure guide hole 10 penetrates from the top of the manure collection plate 12 to the lower surface of the bottom plate of the egg rack 1.

[0027] Specifically, when installing the egg-laying hen rack, first open the top plate of the egg-laying hen rack 1, put the egg-laying hen into the egg-laying hen rack 1, then place the egg-laying hen rack 1 with the support column 7 fixed on the ground, and snap the egg-laying hen rack 1 with the snap-fit ​​groove 13 onto the top plate of the egg-laying hen rack 1 with the support column 7 fixed on it, and rotate the positioning plate 6 to complete the fixation. The positioning plate 6 limits the position and ensures the stability of the overall structure. Then, snap another egg-laying hen rack 1 with the snap-fit ​​groove 13 onto the top plate of the egg-laying hen rack 1, rotate the positioning plate 6 to complete the assembly of the egg-laying hen rack. The installation is convenient and quick, and the multi-layer assembly method facilitates the maintenance and upgrading of the equipment.

[0028] When the laying hens produce droppings, the droppings fall onto the surface of the droppings collection plate 12, slide down the plate to the second droppings guide hole 10, and then slide from the second droppings guide hole 10 to the first droppings guide hole 9. A rubber ring 11 is fixedly installed inside the first droppings guide hole 9 to prevent droppings from leaking out. The droppings then flow from the first droppings guide hole 9 into the second droppings guide hole 10 of the next layer of laying hen rack 1. The droppings are discharged downwards in sequence, and finally flow into the droppings collection bucket from the second droppings guide hole 10 at the bottom layer. This method can easily handle and collect droppings, keeping the laying hen rack 1 clean.

[0029] refer to Figures 1-4 Each of the three laying hen racks 1 has four feeding holes 3 evenly distributed on its sides near the top. Each of the three laying hen racks 1 has a feeding trough 2 fixedly installed at the lower end near the feeding holes 3. Each of the three laying hen racks 1 has four egg collection holes 4 evenly distributed at the lower end near the feeding trough 2. Each of the three laying hen racks 1 has an egg collection rack 5 fixedly installed at the lower end near the egg collection holes 4. Each of the three laying hen racks 1 has four feeding holes 3 evenly distributed on its sides near the top. Each of the three laying hen racks 1 has a feeding trough 2 fixedly installed at the lower end near the feeding holes 3. Each of the three laying hen racks 1 has four egg collection holes 4 evenly distributed at the lower end near the feeding trough 2. Each of the three laying hen racks 1 has an egg collection rack 5 fixedly installed at the lower end near the egg collection holes 4. The three egg collection racks 5 have a raised center and a recessed center for the manure collection plate 12. The main body of the egg collection rack 5 is made of stainless steel.

[0030] Specifically, when the laying hens are laying eggs, the eggs roll down the egg collection rack 5 through the egg collection hole 4 to the edge of the egg collection rack 5, making it easy to collect the eggs. When feeding, the feed is poured into the feeding trough 2, and the laying hens eat through the feeding hole 3.

[0031] Working Principle: During the installation of the layer hen rack, first open the top plate of the layer hen rack 1 and place the layer hens inside. Then, place the layer hen rack 1, with the support columns 7 already fixed in place, on the ground and snap the rack 1 with the snap-fit ​​groove 13 onto the top plate of the lower layer rack 1. Fixing is achieved by rotating the locking plate 6, which ensures the stability of the overall structure through its limiting function. Next, snap the next layer hen rack 1 with the snap-fit ​​groove 13 onto the top plate of the upper layer rack 1, again fixing it by rotating the locking plate 6. This assembly method is not only simple and efficient to operate, but its layered design also facilitates subsequent equipment maintenance and upgrades.

[0032] When the hens lay eggs, the eggs roll along the egg collection rack 5 and collect at the edge of the rack 5 through the egg collection holes 4 for easy collection. When feeding, feed is poured into the feeding trough 2, and the hens can eat through the feeding holes 3. For manure management, the hens' excrement falls onto the surface of the manure collection plate 12 and slides along it into the second manure guide hole 10, then through the first manure guide hole 9 to the lower level. The rubber ring 11 inside the first manure guide hole 9 effectively prevents manure leakage. After entering the second manure guide hole 10 of the lower layer of the hen rack 1 through the first manure guide hole 9, the manure is conveyed downwards layer by layer, finally draining into the manure collection bucket through the second manure guide hole 10 at the bottom. This design achieves efficient cleaning and collection of manure, effectively maintaining a hygienic environment inside the hen rack 1.

[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
