[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0017] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the dairy farm manure cleaning device disclosed in this utility model uses an electric flatbed cart 1 as a mobile carrier and integrates the functions of manure shoveling, conveying, and solid-liquid separation, enabling continuous operation. Its core structure includes an electric flatbed cart 1, a shoveling mechanism, a conveyor 2, and a solid-liquid separation mechanism. The components are arranged sequentially along the length of the electric flatbed cart 1's loading platform, as detailed below: The electric flatbed truck 1 serves as the mobile base for the entire device. It adopts an existing rechargeable electric drive structure and has steering and movement functions. Its loading platform is a steel structure plane, which is used to fix and install the various components of the shovel mechanism, conveyor 2 and solid-liquid separation mechanism to ensure stability during operation.

[0018] The shoveling mechanism is used to scoop up feces from the ground and transfer it to the conveyor. It consists of a bucket 3 and a drive assembly. The bucket 3 is made of welded steel plate and has an overall arc-shaped trough structure. One side of the bucket is hinged to the frame of the conveyor 2, and the connection position is located above the conveyor belt of the conveyor 2, ensuring that the feces can fall accurately into the conveyor belt when the bucket is tilted. The other side of the bucket 3 is open, and the edge of the open is blunted to avoid damaging the ground or equipment during shoveling. At the same time, baffles 10 are welded to both sides of the bucket 3 to prevent feces from spilling from the sides when shoveling. The drive assembly consists of a first electric push rod 4, a rack 5, and a gear 6. The first electric push rod 4 is vertically fixed on the loading platform of the electric flatbed trolley 1, with its output shaft facing upward and fixedly connected to the bottom of the rack 5 by bolts. The gear 6 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the bucket 3 through a bearing and is coaxial with the hinge. The rack 5 and the gear 6 are in a meshing state. The extension and retraction of the first electric push rod 4 drives the rack 5 to move up and down, thereby driving the gear 6 to rotate and realizing the tilting action of the bucket 3.

[0019] Conveyor 2 is specifically a sidewall belt conveyor, used to transport the manure transferred by bucket 3 to the solid-liquid separation mechanism. It adopts an inclined layout with an inclination angle of 30°-45°. Conveyor 2 is fixed to the loading platform of electric flatbed truck 1 by two sets of upright plates 8. The upright plates 8 are steel structure plates, with the bottom welded and fixed to the loading platform and the top bolted to the frame of conveyor 2 to ensure the stability of the conveyor during operation.

[0020] The solid-liquid separation mechanism is used for solid-liquid separation of feces and consists of a collection frame 7, a guide plate 9, a cleaning bucket 12, and a pressing assembly. The collection frame 7 is welded from stainless steel plate and has an overall box structure with an open top. Its bottom is designed to be conical to facilitate liquid collection. A drain pipe 11 is connected to the lowest point of the bottom of the collection frame 7, and a manual valve is installed on the drain pipe 11 to control the discharge of liquid. A through slot is opened in the upper part of the collection frame 7 for installing the cleaning bucket 12. The guide plate 9 is made of stainless steel plate. One end is fixed to the vertical plate 8 below the conveyor 2 by bolts, and the other end extends downward at an angle and abuts against the outer wall of the collection frame 7. Its surface is smooth and it is also equipped with baffles 10 on both sides to guide the feces conveyed by the conveyor 2 into the cleaning bucket 12. The cleaning bucket 12 is a detachable structure made of plastic or stainless steel. It has evenly spaced filter holes with a diameter of 2-5mm at its bottom and a handle on its side wall. The cleaning bucket 12 is horizontally engaged with the upper part of the collection frame 7 via a slot, facilitating removal and cleaning of solid feces after separation. The pressing assembly consists of a gantry frame 13, a second electric push rod 14, and a pressing plate 15. The gantry frame 13 is a steel structure that spans the upper part of the collection frame 7 and is welded and fixed to it. The second electric push rod 14 is vertically installed in the middle of the crossbeam of the gantry frame 13, with its output shaft facing downwards and connected to the pressing plate 15 by bolts. The pressing plate 15 is a square plate that fits with the inner wall of the cleaning bucket 12 with a clearance (not exceeding 5mm). Driven by the second electric push rod 14, it can move up and down along the inner wall of the cleaning bucket 12 to pressurize and dehydrate the feces.

[0021] The conveyor 2, first electric push rod 4, second electric push rod 14, and other power-required components of this device are all connected to the power system of the electric flatbed cart 1, which provides power to them. The start and stop of these components are controlled via switches or remote control switches. The electric flatbed cart, conveyor, electric push rod, rack, gear, pipeline, valves, and other components involved in this device are all commercially available and mature products. Operators can select specific models and specifications according to actual screening needs without needing to understand their detailed internal structure and working principles; they only need to ensure that each component can be assembled and operated normally.

[0022] The specific workflow of this utility model is as follows: 1. The electric flatbed cart 1 starts and moves continuously along the dairy farming area, such as the cowshed passage and exercise yard. The bucket 3 on its carrying platform moves synchronously with the electric flatbed cart 1. Since the other side of the bucket 3 is open and the edge of the open side is in contact with the ground, manure on the ground is continuously shoveled into the bucket 3 during the movement. At the same time, the baffles 10 on both sides of the bucket 3 can effectively prevent manure from spilling from the sides, ensuring that the manure is stably accumulated in the bucket 3.

[0023] 2. When the manure in the bucket 3 accumulates to a certain amount, the first electric push rod 4 is activated. The first electric push rod 4 extends vertically, causing the rack 5 to move upward. Because the rack 5 meshes with the gear 6 on the side wall of the bucket 3, the movement of the rack 5 drives the gear 6 to rotate, thereby causing the bucket 3 to flip upward around the hinge point with the frame of the conveyor 2. As the bucket 3 flips, the manure inside is poured onto the conveyor belt of the conveyor 2 below under the action of gravity, completing the transfer of manure from the bucket 3 to the conveyor 2. After the material is poured out, the first electric push rod 4 retracts, causing the rack 5 to move downward, and the gear 6 rotates in the opposite direction to reset the bucket 3, which continues to move with the electric flatbed trolley 1 for the next round of scooping operations.

[0024] 3. During the shoveling of feces, the conveyor belt of conveyor 2 operates continuously. After the feces are poured from the bucket 3 into the conveyor belt, the conveyor belt transports the feces upward to the end of conveyor 2. The feces at the end of conveyor 2 fall onto the guide plate 9 under the action of gravity, which guides the feces into the cleaning bucket 12 at the top of the collection frame 7. The bottom of the cleaning bucket 12 has filter holes. After the feces enter the cleaning bucket 12, the liquid in it seeps through the filter holes under the action of gravity into the collection frame 7 below, and finally the liquid collects into the drain pipe 11 at the bottom.

[0025] 4. When the solid feces in the cleaning bucket 12 accumulate to a certain amount, move the electric flatbed cart 1 to the feces processing area and turn off the conveyor 2. Start the second electric push rod 14, whose output shaft drives the pressure plate 15 to move downward along the inner wall of the cleaning bucket 12 to pressurize the feces. During the pressurization process, the residual liquid in the feces is further squeezed out and flows into the collection frame 7 through the filter holes, achieving deep solid-liquid separation. After the pressing is completed, the second electric push rod 14 drives the pressure plate 15 to reset.

[0026] 5. Liquid in the collection box 7 can be discharged by opening the valve on the drain pipe 11, such as into the sewage treatment system. The cleaning bucket 12 is detachably connected to the collection box 7 via a slot. Once the cleaning bucket 12 is full of solid feces, it can be removed for further processing of the solid feces, such as composting. Afterward, the empty cleaning bucket 12 is reinstalled onto the collection box 7, and the device continues its feces cleaning operation. If there is residual feces on the device, it will be cleaned by personnel for future use.
