Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nursery box technology, and in particular to a Tibetan piglet heat preservation nursery box. Background Technology

[0002] The Tibetan piglet incubator is a specialized breeding device designed to create a suitable growth environment for Tibetan piglets during their vulnerable early life stages. Structurally, it mainly consists of the box body, a top cover, and various auxiliary components. The box body, as the core load-bearing component, is typically made of materials with good thermal insulation properties, such as polyurethane foam board or polystyrene foam board, to reduce heat loss and maintain a stable internal temperature. The top cover seals the top of the box to prevent excessive heat loss and ensures the safety of the piglets, avoiding external interference. Auxiliary components include heating devices, such as common heat lamps, which convert electrical energy into heat energy to provide warmth inside the box.

[0003] Currently, commercially available Tibetan piglet warming incubators have several shortcomings in practical application. Taking incubators commonly equipped with heat lamps as an example, the installation and use of these lamps, the primary heating element, have significant flaws. Heat lamps are typically fixed to the top of the cover using bolts, making height adjustment difficult once installed. During the growth of Tibetan piglets, their heat requirements vary at different ages. Newborn piglets require a high and concentrated heat supply, at which point the heat lamp should be close to them. As piglets grow, their tolerance to high temperatures increases; if the heat lamp continues to shine at close range initially, it may lead to overheating, causing heatstroke, loss of appetite, and other problems. Furthermore, because the height of the heat lamps in existing incubators is not adjustable, farmers cannot easily adjust the light and heat intensity in real time according to the piglets' growth. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the aforementioned technical defects.

[0005] Therefore, one objective of this utility model is to provide a Tibetan piglet warming and incubation box to solve the problems mentioned in the background art and overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, one embodiment of this utility model provides a Tibetan piglet incubator, comprising a box body, a top cover fixedly installed on the top of the box body by bolts, a square frame fixedly connected to the top of the top cover, a limit frame fixedly connected inside the square frame, an adjusting plate slidably connected inside the limit frame, an adjusting bolt rotatably connected to one side of the square frame, the screw of the adjusting bolt being threadedly connected to the adjusting plate, a lifting plate fixedly connected to the top of the adjusting plate, a heat-insulating lamp fixedly installed on one side of the lifting plate, an assembly frame fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top cover by bolts, a transparent glass cover fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the assembly frame, the lifting plate being located inside the transparent glass cover, a support plate slidably connected to the inner wall of the box body, a locking plate fixedly connected to one end of the support plate, and the locking plate being fixedly installed on the back of the box body by bolts.

[0007] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the inner wall of the box is fixedly connected with a plurality of linear array support plates, and the top surface of each of the support plates is in contact with the bottom surface of the bearing plate.

[0008] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the back of the housing is provided with an avoidance groove, the locking plate corresponds to the avoidance groove, and the bearing plate is located inside the avoidance groove.

[0009] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, a sealing gasket is fixedly connected to the top surface of the assembly frame, and the side of the sealing gasket away from the assembly frame is in contact with the inner wall of the top cover.

[0010] Preferably, one side of the adjusting plate has a plurality of linearly arrayed threaded holes, and the screw portion of the adjusting bolt is threadedly connected to the adjusting plate through the threaded holes.

[0011] Preferably, as described in any of the above embodiments, a corrugated sleeve is fixedly connected to the top surface of the lifting plate, and the top end of the corrugated sleeve is fixedly connected to the assembly frame.

[0012] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, two symmetrically arranged locking plates are fixedly connected to the side of the support plate away from the locking plate, and both locking plates are inserted into the inner wall of the box.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. When adjusting the height of the heat lamp, twist the adjusting bolt on one side of the frame to disengage its screw from the threaded hole on the adjusting plate, thus releasing the locking of the adjusting plate. Then, pull the adjusting plate up and down within the limit frame, causing the heat lamp to move synchronously via the lifting plate. Once the height is appropriate, twist the adjusting bolt to engage its screw with the corresponding threaded hole, completing the fixing of the adjusting plate. During the lifting process, the corrugated sleeve extends and retracts with the lifting plate, preventing heat loss from the transparent glass cover. This adjustment method eliminates the need to disassemble the top cover or the heat lamp, solving the shortcomings of traditional heat lamps with fixed heights. When the pups are first born, the heat lamp can be lowered to provide concentrated heat; as the pups grow, it can be raised to reduce heat intensity, avoid overheating stress, and ensure that the pups are in a suitable temperature environment at different stages. The fit between the threaded hole and the adjusting bolt ensures the stability of the heat lamp's position, the corrugated sleeve reduces heat loss during adjustment, and the transparent glass cover allows for even heat diffusion, improving heat preservation stability and ensuring the healthy growth of the pups.

[0014] 2. When cleaning feces is required, unscrew the fixing bolts between the locking plate and the back of the box, and pull the support plate outward along the inner wall of the box. The support plate provides sliding support for the support plate, and the retaining plate is pulled out from the inner wall of the box. After the support plate is fully pulled out, the feces on its surface can be cleaned directly. After cleaning, push the support plate back into the box along the support plate, allowing the retaining plate to re-insert into the inner wall of the box, and then fix the locking plate with bolts. The support plate can collect the feces of the piglets, preventing feces from accumulating directly at the bottom of the box and being difficult to clean. The detachable design of the locking plate and the guiding support of the support plate enable convenient pulling of the support plate, allowing cleaning to be completed without entering the box, greatly reducing the difficulty of operation. The insertion and cooperation between the retaining plate and the box enhances the stability of the support plate after installation and prevents displacement during use. This design effectively reduces bacterial growth caused by feces residue, keeps the inside of the nursery box clean, provides a hygienic growth environment for Tibetan piglets, and reduces the risk of disease transmission.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0018] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a Tibetan piglet incubator includes a box body 1. A top cover 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the box body 1 by bolts. A square frame 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the top cover 2. A limit frame 4 is fixedly connected inside the square frame 3. An adjusting plate 5 is slidably connected inside the limit frame 4. An adjusting bolt 6 is rotatably connected to one side of the square frame 3. The screw part of the adjusting bolt 6 is threadedly connected to the adjusting plate 5. A lifting plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the adjusting plate 5. A heat lamp 9 is fixedly installed on one side of the lifting plate 8. An assembly frame 10 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top cover 2 by bolts. A transparent glass cover 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the assembly frame 10. The lifting plate 8 is located inside the transparent glass cover 11. A bearing plate 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the box body 1. A locking plate 13 is fixedly connected to one end of the bearing plate 12. The locking plate 13 is fixedly installed on the back of the box body 1 by bolts.

[0019] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the inner wall of the box 1 is fixedly connected with a number of linear array support plates 14. The top surface of the support plates 14 is in contact with the bottom surface of the bearing plate 12, which distributes the weight of the bearing plate 12 and the feces above it, prevents the bearing plate 12 from bending and deforming due to long-term load, and ensures that the bearing plate 12 is pulled out more smoothly and steadily, prevents jamming, extends the service life of the bearing plate 12, and ensures the convenience of feces cleaning operation.

[0020] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a clearance groove 15 is provided on the back of the box 1, the locking plate 13 corresponds to the clearance groove 15, and the bearing plate 12 is located inside the clearance groove 15. The clearance groove 15 on the back of the box 1 provides installation and movement space for the locking plate 13 and the bearing plate 12, so that the locking plate 13 can fit and be fixed to the back of the box 1, avoiding protrusion outside the box 1 and causing bumps, while ensuring that the bearing plate 12 can be completely pulled out for cleaning without being blocked by the structure of the box 1, thus improving the convenience of operation.

[0021] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a sealing gasket 16 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the assembly frame 10. The side of the sealing gasket 16 away from the assembly frame 10 is in contact with the inner wall of the top cover 2, which enhances the sealing between the assembly frame 10 and the top cover 2, reduces the heat leakage from the transparent glass cover 11 through the gaps, and ensures that the heat generated by the heat lamp 9 can be more concentrated on the inside of the box 1, maintain the stable temperature inside the box, and improve the heat preservation effect.

[0022] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a number of linear array threaded holes 17 are provided on one side of the adjustment plate 5. The screw part of the adjustment bolt 6 is threadedly connected to the adjustment plate 5 through the threaded holes 17. By setting multiple threaded holes 17, the adjustment plate 5 can be accurately fixed at different heights, ensuring that the position of the heat lamp 9 is stable after adjustment and will not be displaced due to vibration of the box 1 or external force, thus ensuring the stability of heat supply and adapting to the needs of different growth stages of the cubs.

[0023] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a corrugated sleeve 18 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the lifting plate 8. The top end of the corrugated sleeve 18 is fixedly connected to the assembly frame 10. During the lifting and lowering process of the heat lamp 9, it can flexibly extend and retract with the lifting plate 8, which can not only wrap the circuit of the heat lamp 9 to avoid the circuit being exposed and tangled, but also reduce the heat loss in the transparent glass cover 11 through the gaps, while not affecting the height adjustment of the heat lamp 9, thus taking into account both safety and heat preservation.

[0024] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, two symmetrically arranged locking plates 19 are fixedly connected to the side of the bearing plate 12 away from the locking plate 13. Both locking plates 19 are inserted into the inner wall of the box body 1. They play a role in positioning and auxiliary fixing when the bearing plate 12 is installed, preventing the bearing plate 12 from shifting laterally due to the movement of the cubs or the movement of the box body 1 during use, ensuring that the bearing plate 12 is always in the correct position and stably receives feces. Together with the locking plate 13, they enhance the overall stability of the installation.

[0025] A Tibetan piglet incubator works on the following principle: 1) When it is necessary to adjust the height of the heat lamp 9, twist the adjusting bolt 6 on one side of the frame 3 so that its screw part disengages from the threaded hole 17 on the adjusting plate 5 and releases the lock on the adjusting plate 5.

[0026] 2): Pull the adjustment plate 5 to slide up and down within the limit frame 4, and drive the heat preservation lamp 9 to move synchronously through the lifting plate 8.

[0027] 3) Once the height is suitable, turn the adjusting bolt 6 so that its threaded part is connected into the corresponding threaded hole 17, thus fixing the adjusting plate 5. During the lifting process, the corrugated sleeve 18 extends and retracts with the lifting plate 8 to prevent heat leakage from the transparent glass cover 11.

[0028] In summary, this Tibetan piglet incubator allows for adjustments to the height of the heat lamp 9. To do this, the adjusting bolt 6 on one side of the frame 3 is turned, disengaging its screw from the threaded hole 17 on the adjusting plate 5, thus releasing the locking mechanism. The adjusting plate 5 is then pulled up and down within the limiting frame 4, causing the heat lamp 9 to move synchronously via the lifting plate 8. Once the height is appropriate, the adjusting bolt 6 is turned again, threading its screw into the corresponding threaded hole 17, thus securing the adjusting plate 5. During the lifting process, the corrugated sleeve 18 extends and retracts with the lifting plate 8, preventing heat leakage from the transparent glass cover 11. This adjustment method eliminates the need to disassemble the top cover 2 or the heat lamp 9, overcoming the shortcomings of traditional heat lamp height fixation. When piglets are first born, the heat lamp 9 can be lowered to provide concentrated heat; as the piglets grow, it can be raised to reduce heat intensity, preventing overheating stress and ensuring a suitable temperature environment for the piglets at different stages. The engagement of the threaded hole 17 and the adjusting bolt 6 ensures the stability of the position of the heat lamp 9. The corrugated sleeve 18 reduces heat loss during adjustment, and the transparent glass cover 11 allows for uniform heat diffusion, improving heat preservation stability and ensuring the healthy growth of the cubs. When it is necessary to clean the feces, unscrew the fixing bolts of the locking plate 13 and the back of the box 1, and pull the bearing plate 12 outward along the inner wall of the box 1. The support plate 14 provides sliding support for the bearing plate 12, and the clamping plate 19 is pulled out from the inner wall of the box 1. After the bearing plate 12 is fully pulled out, the feces on its surface can be cleaned directly. After cleaning, push the bearing plate 12 back into the box 1 along the support plate 14, so that the clamping plate 19 is re-inserted into the inner wall of the box 1, and then fix the locking plate 13 with bolts. The support plate 12 can centrally collect the piglets' feces, preventing them from accumulating directly at the bottom of the box 1 and becoming difficult to clean. The detachable locking plate 13 and the guiding support of the support plate 14 allow for easy pulling out of the support plate 12, enabling cleaning without entering the box 1 and significantly reducing operational difficulty. The interlocking mechanism between the locking plate 19 and the box 1 enhances the stability of the support plate 12 after installation, preventing displacement during use. This design effectively reduces bacterial growth caused by fecal residue, keeps the inside of the nursery clean, provides a hygienic growth environment for Tibetan piglets, and reduces the risk of disease transmission.
