Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of poultry farming equipment technology, specifically to a brooding device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of large-scale and intensive poultry farming, higher demands are being placed on temperature control of the brooding environment and the ease of operation of equipment. Farmers not only need heating equipment to provide a stable and uniform heat source, but also expect it to be highly adaptable to meet the needs of different brooding modes such as floor rearing and hanging brooders, while being more labor-saving and efficient in terms of maintenance, adjustment, and storage.
[0003] Currently, most brooding heating devices on the market suffer from the following problems: their support structures are mostly fixed by welding or bolts, making it difficult to adjust the height of the equipment and hindering flexible disassembly, storage, or conversion of usage scenarios; while some devices are adjustable, the operation is cumbersome, often requiring tools or multiple people to work together, resulting in poor practicality. In addition, the mounting holes for wall mounting are usually simple round or square, making them prone to detachment due to external impacts after installation, posing a safety hazard and indicating insufficient stability and reliability of the equipment.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a brooding device that can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a brooding device with a simple structure and easy height adjustment, which can be flexibly disassembled and stored or used in different scenarios.
[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
[0007] A brooding device, comprising:
[0008] A heating plate, wherein a first connecting portion is provided on the heating plate;
[0009] The support structure includes multiple detachable support legs, each support leg having a second connecting part. The first connecting part and the second connecting part form a snap-fit connection, allowing the support legs to be detachably installed on the heating plate via snap-fit engagement. By changing the installation posture of the support legs, the brooding device can be adapted to different usage scenarios.
[0010] As an improvement of this utility model, the first connecting part includes multiple connecting corners, and the second connecting part includes a connecting slot, wherein the support leg is detachably engaged with the connecting corner through the connecting slot.
[0011] As an improvement of this utility model, the support leg is provided with multiple connecting slots spaced apart along its own height direction. The connecting angle is detachably engaged with the connecting slot. By adjusting the engagement position of the connecting angle with the connecting slots of different heights, the height of the heating plate can be adjusted.
[0012] As an improvement of this utility model, the support leg includes a support body, a plurality of first abutment plates and a plurality of second abutment plates, and the connecting slot is defined by a portion of the support body and adjacent first abutment plates and second abutment plates.
[0013] As an improvement of this utility model, the first abutting plate and the second abutting plate are alternately spaced, and a groove reinforcing rib is provided between the first abutting plate and the second abutting plate between two adjacent connecting slots.
[0014] As an improvement of this utility model, the supporting body is provided with a main body reinforcing rib.
[0015] As an improvement of this utility model, the connecting angle includes an abutting protrusion and an abutting corner plate area, wherein the abutting protrusion abuts against the first abutting plate, and the abutting corner plate area abuts against the second abutting plate.
[0016] As an improvement of this utility model, the back of the heating plate is also provided with a hanging hole, which is used to wall-mount the heating plate.
[0017] As an improvement of this utility model, the outline of the hanging hole includes a narrow section at the top and a wide section at the bottom. The wide section is suitable for the hanging component to enter, and the narrow section is suitable for engaging with the hanging component. During installation, the hanging component enters through the wide section and then engages with the narrow section downwards, so that the heating plate needs to be lifted upwards to remove it after installation, thereby preventing the heating plate from falling off due to accidental collision.
[0018] As an improvement to this utility model, the different usage scenarios include: when the supporting leg is installed in the first installation posture, the device is used as a ground heating plate; when the supporting leg is installed in a second installation posture different from the first installation posture, the device is used as a brooding pavilion.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: With the above-described structure, during use, the first connecting part on the heating plate and the second connecting part on the support leg form a snap-fit connection, allowing the support leg to be quickly assembled and disassembled without tools, greatly improving the ease of assembly and storage efficiency of the equipment. By flexibly changing the installation posture of the support leg, the same device can be adapted to various usage scenarios such as ground heating mode or brooding pavilion mode, significantly enhancing the product's functional diversity and application flexibility. Furthermore, the height-adjustable support leg design and stable snap-fit connection ensure the overall structure is stable and reliable while further meeting the differentiated temperature requirements of chicks at different growth stages, effectively improving the convenience and economy of breeding management, and further enhancing the user experience.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 9 A brooding device, comprising:
[0040] A heating plate 100, wherein a first connecting portion is provided on the heating plate 100;
[0041] The support structure 200 includes a plurality of detachable support legs 210. Each support leg 210 is provided with a second connecting part. The first connecting part and the second connecting part form a snap-fit connection, so that the support leg 210 can be detachably installed on the heating plate 100 by snap-fit engagement. By changing the installation posture of the support leg 210, the brooding device can be adapted to different usage scenarios.
[0042] With the above-described structure, during use, the first connecting part on the heating plate 100 and the second connecting part on the support leg 210 are connected by a snap-fit mechanism, enabling the support leg 210 to be quickly installed and disassembled without tools, greatly improving the ease of assembly and storage efficiency of the equipment. By changing the installation posture of the support leg 210, the same device can be flexibly adapted to various usage scenarios, significantly enhancing the product's functional diversity and spatial adaptability. The snap-fit connection method ensures a stable and reliable overall structural connection, while enabling a single device to meet the differentiated temperature environment requirements of chicks at different brooding stages. The overall design significantly improves the ease of operation, economic efficiency, and equipment reliability in breeding management, effectively reducing labor costs and maintenance difficulty, and further enhancing the user experience.
[0043] In this embodiment, the first connecting part includes multiple connecting corners 110, and the second connecting part includes a connecting slot 211. The support leg 210 is detachably snapped into the connecting corner 110 via the connecting slot 211. With this structure, during use, the connecting corners 110 and the connecting slot 211 engage in a snap-fit manner, allowing the support leg 210 to be quickly assembled and disassembled without tools, significantly improving the assembly efficiency and convenience of daily maintenance. The cooperation of multiple connecting corners 110 and the connecting slot 211 ensures the stability and reliability of the connection between the support structure 200 and the heating plate 100, effectively guaranteeing safety. This connection method is simple in structure and intuitive in operation, not only reducing the user's operational difficulty and maintenance costs but also providing a solid structural foundation for the rapid conversion of the equipment in different application scenarios.
[0044] In this embodiment, the support leg 210 is provided with multiple connecting slots 211 spaced apart along its height direction. The connecting angle 110 is detachably engaged with the connecting slots 211. By adjusting the engagement position of the connecting angle 110 with the connecting slots 211 at different heights, the height of the heating plate 100 can be adjusted. With the above structure, in use, by providing multiple connecting slots 211 spaced apart along the height direction on the support leg 210, the connecting angle 110 can be selectively engaged with slots of different heights, achieving flexible multi-level height adjustment of the heating plate 100. This design allows for quick height adjustment of the heating plate 100 without the need for any tools, significantly improving the equipment's adaptability to chicks at different growth stages and accurately meeting their differentiated temperature requirements. The multi-level adjustment mechanism is not only simple to operate and saves time and effort, but also ensures the connection stability and safety of the adjusted structure, effectively improving the scientific and economical aspects of breeding management.
[0045] In this embodiment, the support leg 210 includes a support body 212, multiple first abutment plates 213, and multiple second abutment plates 214. The connecting slot 211 is defined by a portion of the support body 212 and adjacent first abutment plates 213 and second abutment plates 214. With this structure, in use, in this embodiment, a first abutment plate 213 and a second abutment plate 214 cooperate with the support body 212 to precisely define a structurally stable connecting slot 211. This design ensures that each connecting slot 211 has a clear force boundary and consistent molding precision. Multiple such combinations are orderly distributed on the support leg 210, forming multiple reliable height adjustment positions. Furthermore, the reasonable layout of the abutment plates effectively disperses concentrated stress, significantly enhancing local and overall deformation resistance and load-bearing strength. This structure, while ensuring the lightweight of the support leg 210, greatly improves its durability and connection safety, providing a solid hardware foundation for the stable operation and height adjustment function of the heating plate 100, and also facilitating standardized production and assembly.
[0046] In this embodiment, the first abutment plate 213 and the second abutment plate 214 are alternately spaced, and a slot reinforcing rib 215 is provided between the first abutment plate 213 and the second abutment plate 214 between two adjacent connecting slots 211. With this structure, in use, by alternately spaced the first abutment plate 213 and the second abutment plate 214, each connecting slot 211, defined by a pair of abutment plates and the supporting body 212, is structurally independent and experiences uniform stress. Furthermore, the addition of a slot reinforcing rib 215 between the first abutment plate 213 and the second abutment plate 214 between two adjacent connecting slots 211 significantly enhances the integrity and rigidity between adjacent slots, effectively preventing localized stress concentration and structural deformation. The introduction of the inter-slot reinforcing rib 215 significantly improves the bending strength and torsional stability of the support leg 210, ensuring the reliability and accuracy of the height adjustment function in long-term use. At the same time, this design achieves overall optimization of the load-bearing capacity and durability of the support structure 200 without significantly increasing weight or cost, providing a solid foundation for the safe and stable operation of the equipment.
[0047] In this embodiment, the support body 212 is provided with a main body reinforcing rib plate 2121. Through the above structural arrangement, during use, the main body reinforcing rib plate 2121 on the support body 212 effectively enhances the rigidity and deformation resistance of the core load-bearing structure of the support leg 210. This reinforcing rib is integrally formed with the support body 212, significantly improving its stability under complex loads and preventing bending or twisting due to long-term use or external impact. The main body reinforcing rib plate 2121 and the inter-slot reinforcing rib plate 215 in the connecting slot 211 area together constitute a complete reinforcement system, collaboratively ensuring the structural strength and durability of the support leg 210 within the full height adjustment range, enabling the equipment to maintain a safe and stable working state in various aquaculture environments.
[0048] In this embodiment, the connecting angle 110 includes an abutment protrusion 111 and an abutment angle plate area 112. The abutment protrusion 111 abuts against the first abutment plate 213, and the abutment angle plate area 112 abuts against the second abutment plate 214. With this structure, in use, the connecting angle 110, through the abutment protrusion 111 and the abutment angle plate area 112, forms a precise abutment fit with the first abutment plate 213 and the second abutment plate 214 on the support leg 210, respectively. This design, through the mechanical distribution of multiple contact points, effectively disperses the concentrated stress at the connection point, significantly improving the stability and load-bearing capacity of the connection. The fit between the abutment protrusion 111 and the first abutment plate 213 restricts lateral displacement, while the abutment between the abutment angle plate area 112 and the second abutment plate 214 provides reliable vertical support. Their combined action ensures the robustness and impact resistance of the snap-fit connection. This structure not only makes the installation process more convenient and reliable, but also effectively reduces the risk of loosening during long-term use, thereby improving the overall safety and service life of the equipment.
[0049] In this embodiment, the back of the heating plate 100 is also provided with a hanging hole 120, which is used for wall-mounting the heating plate 100. With the above structure, the hanging hole 120 on the back of the heating plate 100 provides a convenient and reliable wall-mounting function, effectively expanding its application scenarios and spatial adaptability. The hanging hole 120 adopts a special structural design, allowing the hanging component to quickly enter and lock in place during installation, enabling single-person manual operation and significantly improving installation efficiency. The wall-mounting method not only saves ground space, making the layout of the breeding area more flexible and tidy, but also allows for flexible adjustment of the hanging height according to the growth stage of the chicks, ensuring a more even and reasonable heat source distribution. Furthermore, this installation method, combined with the original support leg 210 structure of the heating plate 100, allows the same equipment to be switched between floor-mounted and wall-mounted modes at any time, significantly enhancing the product's functional versatility and ease of use, meeting the dual needs of modern farms for equipment space efficiency and user-friendly operation.
[0050] In this embodiment, the hanging hole 120 has an upper narrow section and a lower wide section. The wide section is suitable for the hanging component to enter, and the narrow section is suitable for engaging with the hanging component. During installation, the hanging component enters through the wide section and then engages downwards into the narrow section, so that the heating plate 100 can only be removed by lifting it upwards after installation, thereby preventing the heating plate 100 from falling off due to accidental collision. With the above structure, the hanging hole 120 adopts a composite profile design that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The upper narrow section and the lower wide section respectively serve the functions of positioning and locking and quick insertion. During installation, the hanging component can smoothly enter through the lower wide section and then slide downwards to engage with the upper narrow section to form a tight fit. This structure achieves high convenience for quick alignment and manual operation during installation, while also forming an effective anti-accidental fall mechanism after installation: due to the limiting effect of the narrow section, the heating plate 100 can only be removed when subjected to an active upward pulling force, completely avoiding the risk of accidental fall caused by common collisions, vibrations, or animal disturbances in the breeding environment. This design significantly improves the safety and reliability of wall-mounted installation without increasing operational complexity, ensuring long-term stable operation of the equipment.
[0051] In this embodiment, the different usage scenarios include: when the support leg 210 is installed in the first installation posture, the device is used as a ground heating plate 100; when the support leg 210 is installed in a second installation posture different from the first installation posture, the device is used as a brooding pavilion. Through the above structural design, the device achieves functional diversity in use by adjusting the different installation postures of the support leg 210: when the first installation posture is adopted, the device functions as a ground heating plate 100, providing large-area uniform heating for floor-raised poultry; when converted to the second installation posture, the device transforms into a brooding pavilion, forming a heat source protection space to meet the biological characteristics of poultry gathering for warmth. This design, which allows for functional conversion without additional accessories, greatly improves the device's adaptability and economic efficiency. Through simple structural reconfiguration and installation, the same device can meet the differentiated needs of different breeding stages and adapt to various breeding site layouts, significantly reducing the user's equipment investment costs and space occupation, while maintaining ease of operation and structural reliability of connections, reflecting the multifunctional and high-efficiency design concept of intensive breeding equipment.

Any methods or structures that are similar to or identical to those of this utility model, or any technical deductions or substitutions made based on the concept of this utility model, should be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
