Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of animal husbandry technology, and in particular to an animal husbandry cage and animal husbandry equipment. Background Technology

[0002] In animal husbandry, cleaning the bottom of cages has always been a technical challenge. Traditional animal cages often have a simple bottom design, typically a flat surface, which presents numerous inconveniences during cleaning. Animal feces, food scraps, and other debris easily accumulate at the bottom, requiring frequent manual cleaning by management personnel. This not only increases labor intensity but also makes it difficult to guarantee effective cleaning. Furthermore, some debris may adhere to the crevices or corners of the cage bottom, making thorough removal difficult and increasing the risk of disease transmission.

[0003] To improve cleaning efficiency and ensure cleaning quality, some breeding cages have begun to adopt a removable bottom design, making it easier for managers to remove the bottom for cleaning and disinfection.

[0004] However, this design still has some problems in practical operation, such as cumbersome disassembly and installation processes and easy damage to the cages. Therefore, how to design a bottom structure for breeding cages that is easy to clean while ensuring the integrity and durability of the cages has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in the current animal husbandry field. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides an animal breeding cage and animal breeding equipment, which facilitates better cleaning and disinfection for breeders.

[0006] Firstly, this application provides an animal breeding cage, which includes: The support frame is placed on the ground or in a predetermined position and forms a cavity for fecal impaction.

[0007] The cage-shaped main body is installed above the support frame. The cage-shaped main body has a breeding chamber that can raise a preset number of animals.

[0008] The bottom of the cage-like main body is a double-layered mesh structure. Both layers of the double-layered mesh structure can jointly support the animals being raised, or each layer of the double-layered mesh structure can independently support the animals being raised. Each layer of the double-layered mesh structure can independently move to the cavity where feces are left or to the outside of the cage-like main body, and can be cleaned independently.

[0009] The above structure provides a cage for raising animals, which has the following structure and features: The support frame can be placed stably on the ground or in a pre-set location. The main function of the support frame is to provide stability to the entire breeding cage and to create a cavity underneath specifically for accommodating animal feces, facilitating subsequent cleaning and maintenance.

[0010] The cage-like main body is mounted on top of the support frame. Inside the cage-like main body is a rearing chamber, the size and structure of which can accommodate a predetermined number of chickens or other small animals. The rearing chamber is designed to provide a safe and comfortable growing environment for the animals, while also facilitating daily feeding and observation by the breeder.

[0011] The cage-like main body features a double-layered mesh structure at its base. This design offers several advantages: First, the double-layered mesh structure can collectively support the animals, providing greater load-bearing capacity and stability. Second, each layer of the mesh structure can independently support the animals; if one layer is damaged or requires cleaning, the farmer can remove that layer for maintenance without affecting the use of the other layers.

[0012] In addition, each layer of the mesh structure can move independently, allowing it to be moved into the cavity where feces are left or to the outside of the cage-like main body, thus facilitating better cleaning and disinfection by farmers.

[0013] The animal breeding cages designed in this application combine practicality, stability, and ease of cleaning, making them ideal for large-scale animal farming and significantly improving breeding efficiency and the quality of the animal's growing environment.

[0014] In some examples, the double-layer mesh structure includes a first receiving mesh and a second receiving mesh that can move independently of each other. The first side of the first receiving mesh is movably connected to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like body, and the second side of the first receiving mesh can be snapped or locked to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body. The first side of the second receiving mesh is movably connected to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body, and the second side of the second receiving mesh can be snapped or locked to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like body.

[0015] When the double-layer mesh structure is in the receiving state, one of the first receiving net and the second receiving net can be in a snap-fit ​​or locked state and can receive the animals being raised. The first receiving net and the second receiving net can be independently cleaned during the alternation of use.

[0016] Alternatively, both the first and second receiving nets are in a snap-fit ​​or locked state and are used to hold the animals being raised. During cleaning, one of the first and second receiving nets is briefly released from the snap-fit ​​or locked state, and the other is reset after cleaning.

[0017] The double-layer mesh structure described in this application is used in cage-type breeding equipment to provide more flexible and efficient breeding management. This double-layer mesh structure mainly consists of a first receiving net and a second receiving net, which can move independently of each other, providing more convenience and comfort for the farmed animals.

[0018] The first side of the first receiving net is connected to the bottom of the first side of the cage body via a movable connection. This connection allows the first receiving net to move or rotate relative to the cage body to a certain extent, facilitating operation and management by the farmer. The second side of the first receiving net is designed with a snap-fit ​​or locking mechanism, which can securely snap or lock to the bottom of the second side of the cage body, ensuring that the first receiving net can stably support the farmed animals in the receiving state, preventing them from falling or escaping.

[0019] Corresponding to the first receiving net, the first side of the second receiving net is movably connected to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like main body, while the second side also has a snap-fit ​​or locking function, capable of snapping or locking to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like main body. This design allows the first and second receiving nets to form a relatively independent double-layer structure inside the cage-like main body, providing a more spacious and comfortable living space for the farmed animals.

[0020] When the double-layer mesh structure is in the receiving state, one of the first and second receiving nets can be independently engaged or locked to receive the animals. This design allows breeders to flexibly choose which receiving net to use based on actual needs, thereby improving the utilization rate and flexibility of cage-based breeding equipment. Simultaneously, while one receiving net is in use, the other can be independently cleaned and disinfected, preparing it for the next use.

[0021] In some examples, the first side of the first receiving net is hinged to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like body via a hinge shaft. The hinge shaft is slidably connected to the cage-like body and the sliding direction is from the first side of the cage-like body toward the second side. The second side of the first receiving net can be snapped or locked to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body. When the first receiving net is in a horizontal state or reaches a preset angle with the horizontal plane, the first receiving net can be fixed or unlocked by sliding the hinge shaft.

[0022] Alternatively, the first side of the second receiving net is hinged to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body via a hinge shaft. The hinge shaft is slidably connected to the cage-like body and the sliding direction is from the second side of the cage-like body towards the first side. The second side of the second receiving net can be snapped or locked to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like body. When the second receiving net is in a horizontal state or reaches a preset angle with the horizontal plane, the second receiving net can be fixed or unlocked by sliding the hinge shaft.

[0023] The aforementioned structure provides a highly flexible and adjustable cage-like structure, wherein a first and second supporting mesh are provided at the bottom of the cage-like main body. These components, through ingenious design, achieve efficient adaptability and stability in different application scenarios.

[0024] The first side of the first receiving mesh is connected to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like main body via a hinge shaft. This hinge shaft not only serves a connecting function but, more importantly, allows the first receiving mesh to rotate to a certain extent relative to the cage-like main body. Crucially, this hinge shaft is a sliding connection, with the sliding direction precisely in the direction the cage-like main body moves from the first side to the second side. This design allows the first receiving mesh to be adjusted in position as needed, resulting in a more flexible layout. When the first receiving mesh is horizontal or at a preset angle to the horizontal plane, it can be easily fixed or unlocked by sliding the hinge shaft. This mechanism not only improves the stability of the structure but also greatly simplifies the operation process.

[0025] Similar to the first receiving mesh, the first side of the second receiving mesh is also connected to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like main body via a hinge shaft. Likewise, the hinge shaft is a sliding connection, but the first receiving mesh slides in the opposite direction, from the second side of the cage-like main body towards the first side. This design allows the second receiving mesh to be adjusted in the opposite direction relative to the first receiving mesh within the cage-like main body, offsetting the positions of the first and second receiving meshes, thereby further increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the structure. When the second receiving mesh is in a horizontal state or at a preset angle to the horizontal plane, it can also be fixed or unlocked by sliding the hinge shaft.

[0026] In some examples, the first and second receiving meshes are formed by weaving or welding metal wires, or by weaving or welding metal sheets, or by punching multiple holes in a steel plate.

[0027] The aforementioned first and second supporting mesh can be manufactured in various ways. For example, these supporting meshes can be formed through the weaving or welding of metal wires. In this case, the metal wires are tightly woven together or connected by welding to form a robust mesh structure. Another manufacturing method involves the weaving or welding of metal sheets. In this method, metal sheets are cut into specific shapes and sizes and then spliced ​​together by weaving or welding to form the desired supporting mesh. Finally, another method involves forming the supporting mesh by punching multiple holes in a steel plate. In this method, the steel plate is placed under a stamping press, and multiple regular or irregular holes are punched into the steel plate using a stamping die, thus forming a supporting mesh with specific hole diameters and spacing. These different manufacturing methods can be selected according to actual needs and application scenarios to ensure the strength, durability, and applicability of the supporting mesh.

[0028] In some examples, the first receiving mesh has a push-pull handle on its first side facing away from the second side. And / or, the second receiving mesh has a push-pull handle on its first side facing away from the second side.

[0029] The push-pull handle design allows users to easily operate and control the opening and closing of the retaining mesh, facilitating the management and care of the animals within the cages. Furthermore, the position and size of the push-pull handle can be adjusted according to actual needs to ensure it suits user habits and ease of operation. This design not only improves the practicality and flexibility of the animal cages but also effectively enhances the user experience.

[0030] In some examples, the push-pull handle has an anti-slip structure.

[0031] These design details further enhance the functionality and user experience of the push-pull handle. The anti-slip structure effectively prevents users from slipping in wet or oily environments, ensuring safety and stability during operation. The grooved design allows fingers to fit more naturally on the handle, reducing fatigue during prolonged use. The choice of silicone material not only provides a better grip due to its good elasticity but also maintains the handle's comfort and durability over the long term due to its excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Through these meticulous designs, the animal breeding cage of this application achieves new heights in both practicality and user experience.

[0032] In some examples, the first and second receiving meshes are metal mesh structures, and the mesh shape of the metal mesh structure is at least one of square, circular, pentagonal, and hexagonal.

[0033] This mesh structure is designed to meet the needs of various applications. The metal mesh structure is not only sturdy and durable, capable of withstanding significant weight and pressure, but also easy to clean and maintain, reducing the possibility of bacterial growth and ensuring a hygienic and safe animal husbandry environment. Different mesh shapes, such as square, round, pentagonal, and hexagonal, can be selected according to the animal's size and habits to ensure the animal's comfort and freedom of movement within the cage.

[0034] In some examples, the animals to be raised include at least one of chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, rats, and rabbits.

[0035] Each of the aforementioned animals has its unique physiological structure, living habits, and economic value. These structural characteristics directly affect their breeding results and management methods. Animal breeding cages can be adapted as needed.

[0036] In some examples, the double-layered mesh structures are spaced apart vertically. Alternatively, the double-layered mesh structures are staggered. Or, the double-layered mesh structures are interlocked and can move independently.

[0037] The design and application of double-layer mesh structures demonstrate high flexibility and innovation. Through different arrangements and combinations, this structure can significantly influence the overall properties of materials, including but not limited to strength, toughness, air permeability, and thermal conductivity. The following will describe in detail the three main configurations of double-layer mesh structures and discuss the effects of each structure in depth.

[0038] When a double-layered mesh structure is arranged with alternating vertical layers, this approach is often designed to optimize the material's space utilization and mechanical properties. The alternating vertical layers reduce stress concentration within the material while maintaining a certain thickness, thereby improving overall load-bearing capacity and stability. Furthermore, this arrangement increases the material's permeability, allowing gases or liquids to flow freely between the layers, which is particularly important for applications requiring good ventilation or heat dissipation.

[0039] The interlaced double-layer mesh structure focuses more on enhancing the material's toughness and impact resistance. The interlaced mesh layers form a more complex support system, effectively dispersing stress under external forces and preventing the spread of localized damage. This structure can absorb more energy when subjected to impact or compression, thus protecting the internal structure from damage. In the automotive manufacturing industry, interlaced double-layer mesh structures are often used to manufacture crash beams and body frames to improve vehicle safety performance.

[0040] When the two interlocking mesh structures are interwoven and can move independently, this design aims to achieve more precise control and dynamic response. The interlocking mesh layers maintain a certain connection strength while allowing relative movement within a certain range. This flexibility enables the material to adapt to more complex environmental changes, such as temperature and pressure variations. In the aerospace field, interlocking mesh structures are widely used in the manufacture of thermal protection systems and structural support components to cope with thermal and mechanical stresses under extreme environments.

[0041] Secondly, this application provides an animal breeding device, comprising: Multiple animal breeding cages as described above.

[0042] A feces collection device extends at least partially to the bottom of the animal enclosure and is capable of transporting animal feces. The fermentation tank is connected to a manure collection device. The fermentation tank has a receiving cavity into which the manure collection device can transfer animal manure.

[0043] The aforementioned animal husbandry equipment integrates several key components, aiming to optimize the animal husbandry environment, improve manure treatment capacity, and promote resource recycling. The following is a detailed description and expansion of this animal husbandry equipment.

[0044] Multiple animal cages not only meet the animals' basic living needs but also fully consider animal welfare and breeding efficiency. The cages are made of sturdy and durable materials to ensure the animals' safety and comfort. The cage layout is rational, guaranteeing sufficient space for the animals to move around while facilitating daily management and cleaning by the keepers. Furthermore, the cages are designed with ventilation and temperature control systems that automatically adjust the indoor environment according to the animals' needs, providing a suitable growth environment.

[0056] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0057] To solve the above technical problems, please refer to Figures 1-9 As shown, the first aspect of this application proposes an animal breeding cage that facilitates better cleaning and disinfection for breeders.

[0058] Reference Figures 1 to 6 This application discloses an animal breeding cage, which includes: The support frame 100 is supported on the ground or in a preset position and forms a fecal discharge cavity 110.

[0059] The cage-like main body 200 is installed above the support frame 100. The cage-like main body 200 has a breeding chamber, which can raise a preset number of animals.

[0060] The bottom of the cage-like main body 200 is a double-layer mesh structure 300. Both layers of the double-layer mesh structure 300 can jointly support the animals being raised, or each layer of the double-layer mesh structure 300 can independently support the animals being raised. Each layer of the double-layer mesh structure 300 can independently move to the feces-shedding cavity 110 or the outside of the cage-like main body 200 and be cleaned independently.

[0061] The above structure provides a cage for raising animals, which has the following structure and features: The support frame 100 can be placed stably on the ground or in a pre-set location. The main function of the support frame 100 is to provide stability to the entire breeding cage and to form a cavity underneath it specifically for containing animal feces, so as to facilitate subsequent cleaning and maintenance.

[0062] The cage-like main body 200 is mounted above the support frame 100. The cage-like main body 200 has an internal breeding chamber, the size and structure of which can accommodate a predetermined number of chickens or other small animals. The breeding chamber is designed to provide a safe and comfortable growing environment for the animals, while also facilitating daily feeding and observation by the breeder.

[0063] The bottom of the cage-like main body 200 adopts a double-layer mesh structure 300 design. This design has several advantages: First, the double-layer mesh structure 300 can jointly support the animals being raised, providing stronger load-bearing capacity and stability. Second, each layer of the mesh structure can independently support the animals being raised; if one layer is damaged or needs cleaning, the breeder can remove that layer for maintenance without affecting the use of the other layers.

[0064] In addition, each layer of the mesh structure can move independently and can be moved to the feces-shedding cavity 110 or the outside of the cage-like main body 200, thus facilitating better cleaning and disinfection by farmers.

[0065] The animal breeding cages designed in this application combine practicality, stability, and ease of cleaning, making them ideal for large-scale animal farming and significantly improving breeding efficiency and the quality of the animal's growing environment.

[0066] The animal breeding cage described in this application aims to improve breeding efficiency and optimize the breeding environment. It integrates modern breeding technology with human-centered design concepts, ensuring the healthy growth of animals while significantly simplifying the breeding management process. The following is a detailed description of the further effects of the animal breeding cage.

[0067] The support frame 100, serving as the foundation of the entire breeding cage, plays a crucial role. It can be constructed using high-quality steel or alloy materials, or built using cement, bricks, steel bars, and other structural elements, ensuring stable support on the ground or at a pre-designed location, providing a solid foundation for the breeding cage. The design fully considers adaptability to various breeding environments, flexibly adapting to flat farmland, rugged mountain terrain, or confined indoor spaces, creating a safe and comfortable habitat for the animals.

[0068] The support frame 100 can enclose a manure collection cavity 110, effectively solving the manure cleaning problem in traditional aquaculture. The manure collection cavity 110 is located inside the support frame 100 and connected to the bottom of the cage-like main body 200, facilitating centralized collection and treatment of manure. This design not only reduces manure pollution to the aquaculture environment but also lowers the labor intensity and cost of manual cleaning, significantly improving aquaculture efficiency.

[0069] The cage-like main body 200 is installed above the support frame 100 and serves as the primary breeding space for the animals. It can be constructed from high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials, possessing excellent durability and anti-aging properties. The cage-like main body 200 features a scientifically designed structure, providing a spacious and well-ventilated breeding chamber, offering ample room for the animals to move around and access fresh air.

[0070] The breeding chamber can house a preset number of chickens or other small animals. This number is precisely calculated to meet the animals' growth needs while avoiding overcrowding that could lead to disease transmission and stunted growth. The cage-like main body 200 is also equipped with an automatic feeding system and watering device to ensure that the animals have access to sufficient food and water at all times to meet their growth and development needs.

[0071] The bottom of the cage-like main body 200 adopts a double-layer mesh structure 300 design, an innovation that greatly simplifies the breeding management process. The two layers of the double-layer mesh structure 300 can jointly support the animals being raised, increasing breeding density and land utilization. Each layer can move independently into the feces disposal cavity 110 or the outside of the cage-like main body 200, facilitating independent cleaning and disinfection.

[0072] This design not only reduces the risk of cross-infection but also improves cleaning efficiency and quality. Farmers can regularly clean and disinfect the double-layer mesh structure 300 to ensure a hygienic and safe farming environment. Furthermore, the double-layer mesh structure 300 has excellent air permeability and drainage, effectively preventing the accumulation of feces and the negative impact of a damp environment on animal health.

[0073] Animal breeding cages are designed to balance breeding efficiency and animal welfare. By optimizing the breeding environment, improving land utilization, and simplifying breeding management processes, breeding costs and time costs are effectively reduced. At the same time, spacious activity areas, fresh air, and sufficient food provide animals with good growth conditions and a high quality of life.

[0074] Furthermore, the breeding process can be automated and intelligently integrated by adding automatic feeding and watering systems. These systems automatically adjust the amount of food and water according to the animals' growth needs and feeding standards, reducing the complexity and errors of manual operation. The manure disposal cavity design facilitates centralized collection and treatment of manure, reducing environmental pollution and the risk of disease transmission.

[0075] The cage design fully considers the animals' natural habits and growth needs. Spacious activity space, good ventilation, and ample food provide a comfortable living environment for the animals. The double-layered 300mm mesh structure avoids the adverse effects of feces accumulation and dampness on animal health. In addition, the cages are equipped with temperature control devices and humidity monitoring equipment, which automatically adjust the temperature and humidity of the breeding environment according to the animals' growth needs, ensuring that the animals grow healthily under optimal conditions.

[0076] Animal breeding cage design not only improves breeding efficiency and animal welfare, but also promotes the sustainable development of the livestock industry through structures such as fermentation tanks (500 cubic meters per second). By optimizing the breeding environment and management processes, it effectively reduces resource consumption and environmental pollution. At the same time, this cage design facilitates the expansion and upgrading of breeding scale, providing strong support for the large-scale and industrialized development of the livestock industry.

[0077] Animal breeding cages can utilize energy-saving materials and intelligent control systems to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions. The manure disposal cavity (110) design facilitates centralized collection and subsequent treatment of manure, enabling resource recycling and harmless waste disposal. Regarding environmental pollution, this cage design reduces wastewater, exhaust gas, and solid waste emissions during the breeding process, minimizing pollution and damage to the surrounding environment.

[0078] Furthermore, the design of animal cages can be made more convenient for data collection and analysis by adding intelligent control systems and sensors. These systems allow for real-time monitoring of animal growth, environmental parameters such as temperature and humidity, providing a scientific basis and decision support for livestock management and promoting refined management and intelligent development in the livestock industry.

[0079] The animal breeding cage design proposed in this application has significant advantages in improving breeding efficiency, optimizing the breeding environment, ensuring animal welfare, and promoting the sustainable development of the breeding industry.

[0080] Reference Figures 1 to 6In some examples, the double-layer mesh structure 300 includes a first receiving mesh 310 and a second receiving mesh 320 that can move independently of each other. The first side of the first receiving mesh 310 is movably connected to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like body 200, and the second side of the first receiving mesh 310 can be snapped or locked to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body 200. The first side of the second receiving mesh 320 is movably connected to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body 200, and the second side of the second receiving mesh 320 can be snapped or locked to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like body 200.

[0081] When the double-layer mesh structure 300 is in the receiving state, one of the first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320 can be in a snap-fit ​​or locked state and can receive the animals being raised. The first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320 can be independently cleaned during the alternation of use.

[0082] Alternatively, the first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320 are both in a snap-fit ​​or locked state and receive the animals being raised. During cleaning, one of the first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320 is briefly released from the snap-fit ​​or locked state, and after cleaning, the other is reset to clean.

[0083] The double-layer mesh structure 300 described in this application is used in cage-type breeding equipment to provide more flexible and efficient breeding management. This double-layer mesh structure 300 mainly consists of a first receiving net 310 and a second receiving net 320, which can move independently of each other, providing more convenience and comfort for the farmed animals.

[0084] The first side of the first receiving net 310 is connected to the bottom of the first side of the cage body 200 via a movable connection. This connection allows the first receiving net 310 to move or rotate relative to the cage body 200 to a certain extent, facilitating operation and management by the farmer. The second side of the first receiving net 310 is designed with a snap-fit ​​or locking mechanism, which can securely snap-fit ​​or lock to the bottom of the second side of the cage body 200, ensuring that the first receiving net 310 can stably support the farmed animals in the receiving state, preventing them from falling or escaping.

[0085] Corresponding to the first receiving net 310, the first side of the structure of the second receiving net 320 is movably connected to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like main body 200, while the second side also has a snap-fit ​​or locking function, capable of snapping or locking to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like main body 200. This design allows the first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320 to form a relatively independent double-layer structure inside the cage-like main body 200, providing a more spacious and comfortable living space for the farmed animals.

[0086] When the double-layer mesh structure 300 is in the receiving state, one of the first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320 can be individually engaged or locked to receive the animals being raised. This design allows breeders to flexibly choose which receiving net to use according to actual needs, thereby improving the utilization rate and flexibility of cage-raising equipment. Simultaneously, while one receiving net is in use, the other can be independently cleaned and disinfected, preparing it for the next use.

[0087] Furthermore, the first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320 can both be in a snap-fit ​​or locked state to simultaneously accommodate animals. In this configuration, the rearing space is further expanded, allowing for the housing of more animals. During cleaning, the farmer can briefly disengage one of the receiving nets from its snap-fit ​​or locked state for cleaning and disinfection. After cleaning, it is reset, and then the other receiving net is cleaned. This alternating cleaning method not only improves cleaning efficiency but also ensures a hygienic and safe rearing environment.

[0088] The design of this double-layer mesh structure 300 fully considers the actual needs of breeders and the living habits of farmed animals, providing a more flexible, efficient and comfortable breeding environment for cage breeding equipment.

[0089] Reference Figures 1 to 6 In some examples, the first side of the first receiving net 310 is hinged to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like body 200 via a hinge shaft 330. The hinge shaft 330 is slidably connected to the cage-like body 200 and the sliding direction is from the first side of the cage-like body 200 toward the second side. The second side of the first receiving net 310 can be snapped or locked to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body 200. When the first receiving net 310 is in a horizontal state or reaches a preset angle with the horizontal plane, the first receiving net 310 can be fixed or unlocked by sliding the hinge shaft 330.

[0090] Alternatively, the first side of the second receiving net 320 is hinged to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body 200 via a hinge shaft 330. The hinge shaft 330 is slidably connected to the cage-like body 200 and the sliding direction is the direction from the second side of the cage-like body 200 to the first side. The second side of the second receiving net 320 can be snapped or locked to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like body 200. When the second receiving net 320 is in a horizontal state or reaches a preset angle with the horizontal plane, the second receiving net 320 can be fixed or unlocked by sliding the hinge shaft 330.

[0091] The aforementioned structure provides a highly flexible and adjustable cage-like structure, wherein the bottom of the cage-like main body 200 is provided with a first receiving net 310 and a second receiving net 320. These components, through ingenious design, achieve efficient adaptability and stability in different application scenarios.

[0092] The first side of the first receiving net 310 is connected to the bottom of the first side of the cage-like main body 200 via a hinge shaft 330. This hinge shaft 330 not only serves a connecting function but, more importantly, allows the first receiving net 310 to rotate to a certain extent relative to the cage-like main body 200. Crucially, this hinge shaft 330 is a sliding connection, with the sliding direction precisely from the first side to the second side of the cage-like main body 200. This design allows the first receiving net 310 to adjust its position as needed, achieving a more flexible layout. When the first receiving net 310 is horizontal or at a preset angle to the horizontal plane, it can be easily fixed or unlocked by sliding the hinge shaft 330. This mechanism not only improves the stability of the structure but also greatly simplifies the operation process.

[0093] Similar to the first receiving net 310, the first side of the second receiving net 320 is also connected to the bottom of the second side of the cage-like body 200 via a hinge shaft 330. Likewise, the hinge shaft 330 is a sliding connection, but the sliding direction of the first receiving net 310 is opposite, from the second side of the cage-like body 200 towards the first side. This design allows the second receiving net 320 to be adjusted in the opposite direction relative to the first receiving net 310 within the cage-like body 200, offsetting the positions of the first and second receiving nets 310, thereby further increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the structure. When the second receiving net 320 is in a horizontal state or at a preset angle to the horizontal plane, it can also be fixed or unlocked by sliding the hinge shaft 330.

[0094] The advantage of this structure lies in its high flexibility and adjustability. Both the first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320 can be adjusted in position and angle via the sliding hinge shaft 330, thus adapting to different application scenarios and needs. For example, when bearing heavy loads, the receiving net can be adjusted to a horizontal position to provide maximum support area. When space saving is required, the receiving net can be folded up to reduce its footprint. Furthermore, because the design of the hinge shaft 330 allows the receiving net to easily switch between fixed and unlocked states, users can conveniently adjust the structure's state as needed.

[0095] This cage-like structure achieves a robust yet flexible design by cleverly combining the cage-like main body 200 with a sliding hinge shaft 330 and a snap-fit ​​or lockable support mesh. This design not only improves the adaptability and practicality of the structure but also provides users with a more convenient and efficient operating experience.

[0096] In the above structure, the double-layer mesh structure 300 (a combination of the first receiving net 310 and the second receiving net 320) can be placed horizontally or at a certain angle based on the breeding requirements. The angle is based on the horizontal plane and can be in the range of 0° to 30°. Specifically, it can also be 5°, 15°, 20°, etc., and can be adjusted according to the animal's living habits and characteristics.

[0097] Furthermore, the double-layer mesh structure 300 can be configured as an angle-adjustable component. For example, by raising or lowering the first or second side of the cage-like main body 200, one or both sides of the double-layer mesh structure 300 can be moved up and down during the raising and lowering process, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the double-layer mesh structure 300. Alternatively, through automated adjustment, the tilt angle of the double-layer mesh structure 300 can be varied, allowing animals above the double-layer mesh structure 300 to move passively, improving breeding quality. This automated control can be achieved through structures such as hydraulic cylinders, pneumatic cylinders, and lifting electric cylinders, or through structures such as gear racks, worm gears, and lead screws in conjunction with a motor.

[0098] Furthermore, to further improve the practicality and flexibility of animal breeding cages, this application also proposes an innovative cage door design. The cage door can be installed on either side of the cage body 200 and adopts a sliding or flipping opening method, facilitating quick and safe entry and exit for breeders to carry out daily management and maintenance. The cage door structure is robustly designed and made of high-strength materials, possessing excellent durability and anti-aging properties, ensuring good sealing and stability during long-term use.

[0099] The cage door is also equipped with a sealing strip to effectively prevent outside air, dust, and pests from entering the cage, providing the animals with a closed and clean breeding environment. At the same time, the cage door is easy to open and close, requiring no complicated tools or excessive manpower, thus reducing the labor intensity and time costs for breeders.

[0100] Regarding the cage door design, this application fully considers the natural habits of the animals and the actual needs of the breeders. The sliding cage door design ensures smooth and quiet opening and closing, avoiding startling or disturbing the animals. The flip-up cage door facilitates quick entry and exit for feeding, cleaning, and other tasks. The cage door size and shape can be customized according to the size and number of animals being raised, ensuring that different types of breeding needs are met.

[0101] The animal breeding cage design presented in this application offers significant advantages in improving breeding efficiency, optimizing the breeding environment, ensuring animal welfare, and promoting the sustainable development of the livestock industry. Through innovative double-layer mesh structure 300 design, flexible cage door design, and intelligent control system, it provides breeders with an efficient, convenient, and comfortable breeding solution.

[0102] In some examples, the first receiving mesh 310 and the second receiving mesh 320 are formed by weaving or welding metal wires, or by weaving or welding metal sheets, or by punching multiple holes in a steel plate.

[0103] The aforementioned first and second receiving meshes 310 and 320 can be manufactured in various ways. For example, these receiving meshes can be formed by weaving or welding metal wires. In this case, the metal wires are tightly woven together or connected by welding to form a robust mesh structure. Alternatively, another manufacturing method is through weaving or welding metal sheets. In this method, the metal sheets are cut into specific shapes and sizes and then spliced ​​together by weaving or welding to form the desired receiving mesh. Finally, another method is to form the receiving mesh by punching multiple holes in a steel plate. In this method, the steel plate is placed under a stamping press, and multiple regular or irregular holes are punched into the steel plate using a stamping die, thereby forming a receiving mesh with specific hole diameters and spacing. These different manufacturing methods can be selected according to actual needs and application scenarios to ensure the strength, durability, and applicability of the receiving mesh.

[0104] The metal wire weaving or welding method involves weaving or welding the first receiving mesh 310 and the second receiving mesh 320 together using metal wires (such as iron wire, steel wire, etc.). During the weaving process, the metal wires weave between the two meshes at a certain intersection angle and density, forming a stable connection. Welding involves melting the junction between the metal wires and the mesh at high temperature, and then achieving a permanent connection after cooling.

[0105] The braided wire connection method offers great flexibility, allowing for adjustments to the weave density and angle to adapt to varying load-bearing requirements. Simultaneously, the braided structure provides a degree of elasticity, helping to absorb and disperse external forces. Welding, on the other hand, is known for its high strength and permanent connections, making it suitable for applications requiring heavy loads or long-term stability. However, welding can generate thermal stress, necessitating strict control of welding parameters to avoid damage to the mesh.

[0106] Compared to metal wire, metal sheets have a larger surface area and higher strength. By weaving or welding the first receiving mesh 310 and the second receiving mesh 320 with metal sheets, a more robust connection structure can be formed. During weaving, the metal sheets are interlaced between the two meshes at certain intervals and angles, forming a mesh-like structure. Welding involves melting and connecting the junctions between the metal sheets and the mesh.

[0107] Braided or welded metal sheet connections offer excellent strength and stability, making them particularly suitable for applications requiring extreme loads or harsh environments. The large surface area of ​​the metal sheets allows for more connection points, enhancing overall load-bearing capacity. Furthermore, the metal sheets can be designed in various shapes and sizes to meet specific structural requirements. However, the processes of braiding or welding metal sheets are relatively complex and costly.

[0108] The method of forming multiple holes after punching a steel plate involves punching multiple holes into the steel plate, and then connecting the first receiving mesh 310 and the second receiving mesh 320 through the mating of the holes or additional connecting parts. The shape and size of the punched holes can be designed as needed to achieve different connection effects.

[0109] The connection method formed by stamping multiple holes in a steel plate has the advantages of simple structure, ease of processing and installation. By adjusting the shape and size of the stamped holes, flexible and diverse connection forms can be achieved to adapt to different application scenarios. In addition, steel plates have high strength and rigidity, providing good load-bearing and support capabilities. However, this connection method is prone to stress concentration at the hole edges, which needs to be fully considered in the design and appropriate measures should be taken to mitigate it. At the same time, for large or complex structures, the connection method of stamping steel plates may not be as flexible and adaptable as the braiding or welding methods of metal wire or sheet.

[0110] There are various ways to connect the first receiving network 310 and the second receiving network 320, each with its unique advantages and applicable scenarios. When selecting a connection method, a comprehensive consideration and weighing of factors such as specific application requirements, structural characteristics, and cost budget should be taken into account.

[0111] Reference Figures 1 to 6 In some examples, the first receiving net 310 has a push-pull handle 340 on its first side facing away from the second side. And / or, the second receiving net 320 has a push-pull handle 340 on its first side facing away from the second side.

[0112] The push-pull handle 340 allows users to easily operate and control the opening and closing of the receiving net, facilitating the management and care of animals within the cages. Furthermore, the position and size of the push-pull handle 340 can be adjusted according to actual needs to ensure it conforms to user habits and ease of operation. This design not only improves the practicality and flexibility of animal cages but also effectively enhances the user experience.

[0113] In some examples, the push-pull handle 340 features an anti-slip structure. This structure includes grooves that conform to the fingers. The grip area can be made of silicone to enhance comfort.

[0114] These design details further enhance the functionality and user experience of the push-pull handle 340. The anti-slip structure effectively prevents slippage in wet or oily environments, ensuring operational safety and stability. The grooved design allows fingers to fit more naturally on the handle, reducing fatigue during prolonged use. The choice of silicone material not only provides a better grip due to its good elasticity but also maintains the handle's comfort and durability over the long term due to its excellent wear and corrosion resistance. Through these meticulous designs, the animal breeding cage of this application achieves new heights in both practicality and user experience.

[0115] In some examples, the first receiving mesh 310 and the second receiving mesh 320 are metal mesh structures, and the mesh shape of the metal mesh structure is at least one of square, circular, pentagonal and hexagonal.

[0116] It can also be a non-metallic mesh structure with sufficient strength and toughness, or a composite mesh structure composed of metal and non-metal.

[0117] This mesh structure is designed to meet the needs of various applications. The metal mesh structure is not only sturdy and durable, capable of withstanding significant weight and pressure, but also easy to clean and maintain, reducing the possibility of bacterial growth and ensuring a hygienic and safe animal husbandry environment. Different mesh shapes, such as square, round, pentagonal, and hexagonal, can be selected according to the animal's size and habits to ensure the animal's comfort and freedom of movement within the cage.

[0118] Non-metallic mesh structures, such as those made of high-strength plastics or synthetic fibers, offer advantages such as light weight, corrosion resistance, and low cost, making them suitable for aquaculture scenarios with strict cost requirements or special restrictions on metal materials. Metal-non-metal composite mesh structures, on the other hand, combine the advantages of both materials, ensuring structural strength and stability while reducing overall weight and cost, and improving the comprehensive performance of the materials.

[0119] These diverse mesh structure designs significantly enhance the adaptability and flexibility of the animal breeding cages in this application, enabling them to better meet the needs of different users and different animal breeding practices.

[0120] The cleaning methods for the first receiving mesh 310 and the second receiving mesh 320 include at least one of vibration, fluid flushing, scrubbing, airflow flushing, fluid soaking, and negative pressure suction. The remaining main structures of the cage-like body 200 can also be cleaned using similar methods.

[0121] The aforementioned vibration cleaning method effectively removes stains and impurities adhering to the cage-like main body 200 and the first and second receiving nets 310 and 320 through physical vibration. This cleaning method is suitable for various materials and structures, especially for small crevices and hard-to-reach areas. Vibration can effectively disperse and remove stubborn stains, ensuring thorough cleaning.

[0122] Fluid flushing utilizes a high-speed flowing liquid, such as clean water or a specialized cleaning agent, to rinse the cage-like main body 200 and its receiving mesh. This method can quickly remove stains and, at the same time, use the impact force of the fluid to deeply clean the structural surface. Fluid flushing is not only highly efficient but also reduces the amount of cleaning agent used, thus lowering costs.

[0123] The wiping method focuses more on manual or mechanical means, using tools such as brushes and sponges to meticulously wipe the cage-like main body 200 and its receiving mesh. Wiping allows for targeted treatment of specific stains, ensuring cleaning effectiveness. At the same time, manual operation allows for more flexibility in handling various complex structures, improving the precision of cleaning.

[0124] Airflow flushing utilizes high-pressure gas, such as compressed air or nitrogen, to blow away the cage-like main body 200 and its receiving mesh. This method is suitable for removing surface dust and loose stains without damaging the structure. Airflow flushing is easy to operate and highly efficient, making it particularly suitable for applications requiring rapid cleaning.

[0125] Fluid soaking involves immersing the cage-like main body 200 and its receiving mesh in a cleaning agent. Through soaking and agitation, the cleaning agent fully penetrates and breaks down stains. This method is suitable for removing stubborn stains and deep cleaning, ensuring thorough and even cleaning. Furthermore, by adjusting the type and concentration of the cleaning agent, targeted treatment can be applied to different stains.

[0126] Negative pressure suction utilizes a negative pressure device, such as a vacuum cleaner or vacuum pump, to suction the cage-like main body 200 and its receiving mesh. This method can quickly remove moisture, stains, and impurities from surfaces and crevices, ensuring dryness and cleanliness after cleaning. Negative pressure suction is particularly suitable for situations requiring rapid drying and removal of excess cleaning agent, improving cleaning efficiency and quality.

[0127] Cleaning methods such as vibration, fluid flushing, scrubbing, airflow flushing, fluid soaking, and negative pressure suction each have their own characteristics and are suitable for different cleaning needs and scenarios. In practical applications, appropriate cleaning methods can be selected and combined according to the structural characteristics of the cage-like main body 200 and its receiving mesh, the type of stain, and cleaning requirements to ensure optimal cleaning results. Meanwhile, regular cleaning and maintenance of the cage-like main body 200 and its receiving mesh can extend their service life and improve the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0128] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some examples, the animals to be raised include at least one of chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, rats, and rabbits.

[0129] Each of the aforementioned animals possesses a unique physiological structure, lifestyle, and economic value. These structural characteristics directly influence their breeding outcomes and management methods. Below, we will explain the structure of each animal individually and explore how these structural characteristics affect breeding results.

[0130] Chickens possess strong leg muscles and sharp claws, enabling them to run quickly and forage for food on the ground. Their hard, sharp beaks are well-suited for pecking at various grains and insects. These structural features allow chickens to forage efficiently, reducing the cost of manual feeding. Simultaneously, their dense feathers provide insulation, helping them maintain body temperature in cold environments and improving survival rates. In terms of economic benefits, the rapid growth cycle and high egg production rate of chickens make poultry farming a significant economic source in many regions.

[0131] Ducks and geese differ from chickens in their structural features. They have wider feet and webbed feet, which allows them to maintain balance and speed while swimming. Their flat, broad beaks are well-suited for filtering plankton and plants from the water. In aquaculture, these structural features allow ducks and geese to fully utilize natural resources in aquatic environments, reducing farming costs. Furthermore, their feathers have better waterproof properties, helping them stay dry in humid environments. In terms of marketability, duck and goose meat is delicious and possesses certain medicinal value, making them highly competitive in the market.

[0132] The structural characteristics of dogs are mainly reflected in their strong limbs, keen senses, and loyal temperament. Their strong limbs enable them to run and jump, adapting to various complex environments. Dogs have exceptionally keen senses of smell and hearing, allowing them to promptly detect and respond to potential threats. In breeding, these structural characteristics make them excellent guard dogs. At the same time, their loyal nature allows them to form deep emotional bonds with humans, becoming important members of many families. In terms of breeding efficiency, dogs have a high reproduction rate and are easy to manage, making dog breeding a potentially profitable industry in some regions.

[0133] Rodents possess flexible bodies and sharp teeth. Their body structure allows them to move freely in confined spaces, searching for food and shelter. Their sharp teeth enable them to gnaw on various hard objects to obtain sufficient nutrients. In animal husbandry, these structural features allow rodents to adapt to various environments, reducing the difficulty of raising them. However, rodents can also be pests, damaging crops and human living environments. Therefore, strict control measures are necessary when raising rodents. In terms of breeding outcomes, rodents such as hamsters are popular pets due to their cute appearance and docile temperament.

[0134] Rabbits have long ears, strong hind legs, and soft fur. Their long ears allow them to keenly sense sounds and smells in their environment, enabling them to detect potential threats promptly. Their strong hind legs allow them to run or jump quickly, escaping predators. Their soft fur helps them maintain body temperature in cold environments. These structural features allow rabbits to adapt to various climatic conditions, reducing the risks of raising them. Furthermore, rabbit meat is delicious and nutritious, making rabbit farming an important economic industry in many regions. In terms of profitability, rabbits have a high reproductive rate and a short growth cycle, resulting in high economic returns for rabbit farmers.

[0135] The structural characteristics of animals to be farmed directly affect their farming outcomes and management methods. Understanding these structural characteristics helps us to better select and manage farmed animals, thereby improving farming efficiency and market competitiveness.

[0136] The animal breeding cage design of this application is widely applicable to a variety of poultry and pets, including but not limited to chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, rats, rabbits, etc. This versatility requires that the breeding cages meet the different living habits and breeding needs of various animals in terms of structure, materials, and functions.

[0137] The cage body 200 can be designed as a single-layer or multi-layer cage: Depending on the size of the farm and the species of animal, the cage can be designed in either a single-layer or multi-layer configuration. Single-layer cages are easier to manage and clean, suitable for small farms or family farms. Multi-layer cages improve space utilization and are suitable for large-scale farming, but attention must be paid to ventilation and lighting conditions to ensure animal health. In a multi-layer design, animals can be transferred and moved to the feces disposal cavity 110.

[0138] To meet the isolation needs between different animals, the cages can be equipped with partitions to divide the cage into multiple independent spaces. Furthermore, the cages can be flexibly combined through modular design to adapt to different breeding scales and animal species.

[0139] Materials can be selected from metal, plastic and acrylic, wood and bamboo, etc.

[0140] Metal cages are sturdy, durable, easy to clean, and offer good ventilation. Stainless steel cages are also corrosion- and rust-resistant, making them suitable for long-term use.

[0141] Transparent or semi-transparent plastic or acrylic cages make it easy to observe the animal's condition, making them suitable for raising small pets or ornamental animals. However, it is necessary to pay attention to sun protection and anti-aging treatments.

[0142] Wood and bamboo are environmentally friendly materials suitable for indoor use, providing a warm and comfortable living environment for animals. However, regular cleaning and pest control are necessary.

[0143] The animal breeding cages described in this application demonstrate high applicability and flexibility in structural design, material selection, and functional features, and can meet the needs of different animal species and breeding scales. However, in practical applications, further personalized adjustments and optimizations are necessary based on the specific breeding environment and animal characteristics.

[0144] In some examples, the double-layer mesh structure 300 is arranged vertically at intervals. Alternatively, the double-layer mesh structure 300 is arranged in an alternating manner. Or, the double-layer mesh structure 300 is interlocked and can move independently.

[0145] The design and application of the double-layer mesh structure 300 demonstrates a high degree of flexibility and innovation. This structure, through different arrangements and combinations, can significantly influence the overall performance of the material, including but not limited to strength, toughness, air permeability, and thermal conductivity. The following will detail the three main configuration methods of the double-layer mesh structure 300 and discuss the effects of each structure in depth.

[0146] When a double-layered mesh structure is spaced 300mm apart vertically, this design is often intended to optimize the material's space utilization and mechanical properties. The spaced-apart double-layer structure reduces stress concentration within the material while maintaining a certain thickness, thereby improving overall load-bearing capacity and stability. Furthermore, this design increases the material's permeability, allowing gases or liquids to flow freely between the layers, which is particularly important for applications requiring good ventilation or heat dissipation.

[0147] The staggered arrangement of the double-layer mesh structure 300 focuses more on enhancing the material's toughness and impact resistance. The staggered two layers of mesh form a more complex support system, effectively dispersing stress under external forces and preventing the spread of localized damage. This structure can absorb more energy when subjected to impact or compression, thus protecting the internal structure from damage. In the automotive manufacturing industry, the staggered double-layer mesh structure 300 is often used to manufacture crash beams and body frames to improve vehicle safety performance.

[0148] When the two-layer mesh structure 300 is interlocked and can move independently, this design aims to achieve more precise control and dynamic response. The interlocking mesh layers allow for relative movement within a certain range while maintaining a certain connection strength. This flexibility enables the material to adapt to more complex external environmental changes, such as temperature and pressure variations. In the aerospace field, the interlocking double-layer mesh structure 300 is widely used in the manufacture of thermal protection systems and structural support components to cope with thermal and mechanical stresses under extreme environments.

[0149] In terms of effectiveness, each of these three arrangements of the double-layer mesh structure 300 has its own advantages. The vertically spaced arrangement emphasizes space utilization and breathability, while the staggered arrangement emphasizes toughness and impact resistance. The interlocking yet independently movable structure offers greater flexibility and adaptability. In practical applications, the choice of structure depends on the specific application scenario and requirements. By rationally designing the arrangement of the double-layer mesh structure 300, the overall performance of the material can be significantly improved, meeting diverse engineering needs.

[0150] Reference Figure 9 Secondly, this application provides an animal breeding device, comprising: Multiple animal breeding cages as described above.

[0151] The feces collection device 400 extends at least partially to the bottom of the animal housing cage and is capable of transporting animal feces. The fermentation tank 500 is connected to the manure collection device 400. The fermentation tank 500 has a receiving cavity, and the manure collection device 400 can transfer animal manure into the receiving cavity.

[0152] The aforementioned animal husbandry equipment integrates several key components, aiming to optimize the animal husbandry environment, improve manure treatment capacity, and promote resource recycling. The following is a detailed description and expansion of this animal husbandry equipment.

[0153] Multiple animal cages not only meet the animals' basic living needs but also fully consider animal welfare and breeding efficiency. The cages are made of sturdy and durable materials to ensure the animals' safety and comfort. The cage layout is rational, guaranteeing sufficient space for the animals to move around while facilitating daily management and cleaning by the keepers. Furthermore, the cages are designed with ventilation and temperature control systems that automatically adjust the indoor environment according to the animals' needs, providing a suitable growth environment.

[0154] Closely connected to the animal cages is a manure collection device 400. The manure collection device 400 extends at least partially to the bottom of the animal cages, efficiently collecting animal manure. This device employs advanced conveying technologies, such as belt conveyors, screw conveyors, or pneumatic conveyors, ensuring that manure is quickly and unimpededly transported to the designated location. This design not only significantly reduces the workload of the caretakers but also improves the timeliness and efficiency of manure treatment. A vibrating device can be added at a suitable location to quickly agitate the manure before it is transferred to the fermentation tank 500, minimizing residue buildup in the manure collection device 400.

[0155] The fermentation tank 500 is a recycling device for animal husbandry equipment. It has at least one sufficiently large receiving chamber to receive and process manure transferred from the manure collection device 400. The fermentation tank 500 employs scientific microbial fermentation technology, which, by adding specific microbial agents, efficiently converts manure into organic fertilizer. This process not only solves the manure disposal problem but also achieves resource recycling, providing valuable organic fertilizer resources for agricultural production.

[0156] The gases produced during fermentation are effectively collected and utilized, such as as fuel or for power generation, achieving secondary energy use. Simultaneously, the fermentation tank 500 is equipped with an advanced deodorization system, which significantly reduces odors generated during fermentation and minimizes pollution to the surrounding environment.

[0157] Furthermore, the animal husbandry equipment features intelligent management. By integrating advanced sensors and IoT technology, it can monitor environmental parameters within the cages (such as temperature, humidity, and ammonia concentration) and the operational status of the manure collection and fermentation tank 500 in real time. This data is transmitted to a cloud management system in real time, allowing keepers to remotely view and adjust breeding strategies via mobile phones or computers to ensure the animals are in optimal growth condition.

[0158] It is worth mentioning that the animal husbandry equipment also boasts excellent scalability and flexibility. The number and layout of the cages can be adjusted according to actual needs to accommodate different scales of farming. Furthermore, the design of the manure collection device 400 and the fermentation tank 500 fully considers potential future upgrades and expansions, providing strong support for the long-term development of the farm.

[0159] In summary, the animal husbandry equipment provided in this application, with its high efficiency, environmental friendliness, and intelligent features, has brought about a revolutionary change to the animal husbandry industry. It not only solves the problem of manure disposal and improves breeding efficiency, but also promotes resource recycling and sustainable environmental development.
