Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of dairy farming equipment technology, and in particular to an adjustable dairy cow grouping and blocking device. Background Technology

[0002] In modern dairy farms, dairy cows are usually kept in groups to improve milk production efficiency, implement precision feeding, and manage disease isolation.

[0003] In practice, existing methods for herding animals mainly rely on manual driving or the use of fixed fences, which have many drawbacks: Fixed fences cannot flexibly adjust the size and layout of the grouping area, making it difficult to adapt to changes in the number of dairy cows or the needs of different growth stages. Traditional cowsheds have limited environmental control capabilities, especially during the hot summer months, when excessively high temperatures inside the shed can severely affect the cows' thermal comfort and feed intake. If the manure and wastewater generated during the breeding process are not cleaned and recycled in a timely manner, it can easily lead to the deterioration of the pen environment, increase the risk of disease transmission, and be detrimental to environmental protection.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides an adjustable cow herding and blocking device. Utility Model Content

[0022] Working principle: like Figures 1-6 As shown: Flexible and adjustable group management is achieved: By adopting a movable dairy cow grouping and rearing frame 41 and fixing it with positioning bolts, operators can quickly and flexibly adjust the size and layout of the grouping area according to the actual size, number or management needs of the dairy cows, realizing highly customizable group rearing and greatly improving management efficiency and flexibility. It improves the breeding environment and enhances animal welfare: By integrating the heat dissipation box 3, which is equipped with a fan 31 and a cooler 33, it can actively deliver cool air into the breeding room, effectively reducing the heat stress caused by high summer temperatures to dairy cows and ensuring their feed intake and health. The system achieves automated collection and recycling of waste: The bottom of the dairy cow breeding platform 4 is equipped with a recycling hopper 25 with a filter plate 32. After the waste is initially separated by the filter plate, it can be automatically stored in the underground storage and recycling bin 22 through the recycling pipe 23 under the control of the valve 24. This achieves "daily production and daily cleaning" and centralized management of manure, which greatly improves the hygiene environment of the pen and reduces the labor intensity of manual manure cleaning. All electrical equipment, including fans, coolers, valves, monitoring systems, and lighting, are managed uniformly by the control panel and powered by battery 58. The operation is simple and intelligent control is achieved. The device adopts a multi-support structure through support column 53, fixed frame 57, connecting arm 51, and side reinforcement plate 13, which ensures the stability and durability of the overall structure, can withstand the collision of dairy cows, and ensures the safety of personnel and animals.

[0023] Specific operations: Grouping adjustment operation: When it is necessary to adjust the herd layout, the operator can loosen the positioning bolts connecting the dairy cow grouping and rearing frame 41, move each rearing frame to the designated position on the dairy cow rearing platform 4 according to the new grouping plan, and then tighten them again. The isolation baffle 45 and the movable rearing frame together constitute a flexible grouping barrier area. Environmental control process: In hot weather, the cooler 33 and fan 31 in the heat dissipation box 3 are started through the control panel. The fan 31 blows air through the refrigerant generated by the cooler to form cold air. The cold air is sent into the breeding room 1 through the air outlet slot 34 to cool the environment inside the house. If necessary, a spray system can also be installed on the second fixed sleeve 52 to spray the cattle. Waste recycling process: The manure and wastewater produced by dairy cows undergo preliminary solid-liquid separation through the filter plate 32 on the top of the dairy cow breeding platform 4. The liquid and fine solid waste fall into the recycling hopper 25 below. When cleaning is required, the valve 24 is opened, and the waste flows into the underground storage recycling bin 22 under the action of gravity through the recycling pipe 23 for centralized storage, to be processed in a unified manner later. Daily monitoring and maintenance: Monitoring equipment 43 continuously monitors the activities and feeding of dairy cows, and the images can be transmitted to the back-end management system. Lighting tubes 55 ensure nighttime lighting. Staff can enter the interior of the fixed platform 2 through the maintenance ladder 27 to inspect and maintain equipment such as the storage and recycling bins.

Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
