Detachable Poultry Restraining Barrel for Easy Loading and Storage
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Traditional poultry slaughtering methods are inconvenient, inefficient, and pose hygiene risks due to manual handling and uncontrollable poultry movement, leading to blood splashing.
Innovation Solution
A restrainer comprising detachable assembly parts forming a barrel structure with a larger upper opening and smaller lower opening, allowing easy poultry placement and restraint, facilitating efficient slaughtering while minimizing space usage and transport complexity.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If manual pressing of poultry is used, then working efficiency is low, but the structure is simple
Solution Approach 1:
The restrainer is divided into multiple detachable assembly parts (first assembly part, second assembly part, third assembly part) that can be assembled together to form the complete barrel structure. This segmentation allows for easier manufacturing, transportation, and storage while maintaining the functional integrity of the device for improving poultry processing efficiency.
2Reliability
If the restrainer is made as a complete barrel structure, then poultry restraint is effective, but storage space is large
Solution Approach 1:
The barrel structure is segmented into multiple detachable assembly parts that can be separated for storage. When not in use, the assembly parts can be disassembled and stored separately, significantly reducing the space required compared to storing a complete barrel structure, while maintaining effective poultry restraint when assembled.
Solution Approach 2:
The assembly parts are designed to be nested within each other when disassembled, with smaller parts fitting inside larger parts. This nesting arrangement minimizes the storage volume required for the restrainer while ensuring that the complete barrel structure can be reassembled for effective poultry restraint.
3Reliability
If the upper opening size is reduced, then poultry escape is prevented, but poultry placement becomes difficult
Solution Approach 1:
The restrainer employs asymmetric opening design where the upper opening is larger than the lower opening. The larger upper opening facilitates easy placement of poultry into the barrel structure, while the smaller lower opening effectively prevents poultry from escaping, thus resolving the contradiction between ease of operation and escape prevention.
4Ease of operation
If the restrainer is made detachable, then transport is easier, but assembly complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The restrainer is designed with detachable assembly parts connected through simple connection mechanisms. This segmentation enables easy disassembly for transportation and storage, while the connection structures are designed to be straightforward, minimizing the complexity of assembly despite the detachable nature of the device.

AI summary
A restrainer comprises at least two assembly parts which are detachably connected, wherein two or more assembly parts are connected to form a barrel structure provided with an upper opening and a lower opening, and a size of the upper opening is greater than a size of the lower opening. The restrainer is formed by the assembly parts which are detachably connected, such that poultry can be easily placed in the barrel structure in use and are unlikely to run away; space is saved when the restrainer is transported and stored.
