Description

The The invention relates to a corridor floor with livestock keeping system, For example, in a cubicle, the hallway a has essentially closed corridor surface, the picking system at least one resting on the ground floor, along the hall floor reciprocating pusher and an irrigation system provided for moistening the corridor surface is. Furthermore, the invention relates to an irrigation system for this Hallway floor.

For the intense Livestock, in particular of cattle, are pit stalls good compromise for an economic, intensive livestock with sufficient freedom of movement for the cattle. It is the cattle next to the respective assigned pit stall a runway or clearance offered on which the cattle are free can move. In intensive livestock farming is a manual Ausmistung not possible anymore or uneconomical. Accordingly, floor floors with automated picking systems in different configuration known.

The known Ausmistsysteme have a resting on the ground floor Garbage pusher on. The garbage pusher is driven by a drive device moved back and forth along the corridor floor.

For example is one of the company Langhout machinebouw b. v., 8801 JB Franeker, NL, according to the brochure "uitmestsystemen", second page below right on the ground floor resting garbage from a in the middle of the corridor in the longitudinal direction driven push rod driven. The push rod moves over an electrohydraulic Drive with a stroke of 1.8 m back and forth. On the push rod arranged Mitnehmervorsprünge take care of a sliding movement of the slider in one direction over the entire corridor length from a few 10 meters. At the end of the corridor will then automatically the Carrier mechanism in the central element of Ausmistschiebers reversed, so that the Slider again in batches in the opposite direction over the entire hall to the opposite reversal point of the Push rod is transported. Two swiveling slider arms on the Manure valves fold in conveying direction on and slip over the hall floor. The floor is cleaned by the resulting manure.

adversely is that at the known Ausmistsystemen a complete cleaning of the surface hardly can be reached, as there is a thin, firmly adhering topcoat of faeces, Mist or finer Einstreupartikeln forms. Increasingly, this occurs undesirable Cover layer in a dry environment. The cover layer is fertile soil for pathogens. Furthermore, the cattle on the top layer can easily slip and hurt.

Tries, Safely remove this topcoat by taking precautions on the slider or to avoid, have failed so far. It was therefore tried the ground floor surface through irrigation systems to keep moist. The cleaning result of a wet hall floor moving manure pusher is namely improved.

there is an irrigation system known in the water lines with small spray holes above the Laufflures attached to the roof of the stable. The disadvantage is that the cattle when pressed irrigation system in the spray stands and gets wet. It is for the wished Effect a big one Amount of water required, as both the resting on the ground floor Mist amount must be moistened as well as a targeted Humidification of the ground floor surface not possible is. At the today usually open stables There is also a risk that the spray is drifted by wind. Unwantedly then can also the lying areas for the cattle are moistened in the boxes.

alternative was therefore proposed to the irrigation system laterally of the To arrange the hall floor. In this case, a pipe is about 0.5 m above the corridor surface on one longitudinal side arranged the hall floor. The spray generated thereby disturbs the cattle Although less, but still wets legs and possibly udders, which also undesirable is. Another disadvantage is that these Arrangement only for running areas with boxes arranged on one side the opposite of the boxes Side, for example along the feed passage, is possible. By one-sided spraying is the humidification over the entire width of the hall floor is not even, resulting in one too uneven cleaning result leads.

Furthermore, from the DE 1 736 008 U a cleaning device for floors in slaughterhouses are known, are embedded in the bottom of the trickle pipes so that they protrude at a low height above the floor and there have two or more rows of side by side obliquely arranged spray holes.

From the DE 1 162 127 A is a round barn for large and small livestock with a arranged on the circumference of the stand area Entmistungsrinne and a revolving over the manure waste scraper is known, which covers the floor space for the livestock in the manner of a Ausmistschiebers.

outgoing From the aforementioned prior art, it is an object of the invention to provide a corridor floor with Ausmistsystem, in which by an irrigation system an improved cleaning of the floor surface by the manure slider is achieved without that Livestock or surrounding areas of the stable are wetted.

Is solved this object by a hall floor with the features according to claim 1, as well as through an irrigation system with the features according to claim 10. Advantageous developments of the hall floor are given in the dependent claims.

Thereby that this irrigation system is arranged in the hall floor, the floor surface is directly from the im irrigation system introduced liquid moistened. This creates additional a kind of lubrication for the over the hall floor moved slide, without the entire, on the hall floor Overlying manure must be moistened. It is also advantageous that this livestock keeping livestock by irrigation is not wetted. The cattle only stand up with their hooves the moistened by the irrigation system Hallway Area.

There according to the invention for the irrigation system in the hall floor, pipes with small connecting channels are provided to openings on the corridor surface are, will be an even distribution the irrigation fluid on the corridor surface ensured.

If in the connection channels Valves are arranged to prevent urine, faeces or other liquid components, the on the corridor surface rest in the irrigation system can reach.

Prefers the valves are overpressure valves and / or Check valves, the only one fluid output enable.

Thereby, that in Advantageously, in the region of the opening in the hall floor a recess is provided, in which the valve, preferably interchangeable used is, the opening becomes and especially the valve from being damaged by the hooves of the animals secured. Nevertheless, you can at the valve maintenance or adjustment work are carried out immediately. The recess in the corridor floor should have a maximum diameter of 3 to 5 cm, wherein the depth of the recess preferably so is formed that the Upper edge of the valve used still jumps back about 1 cm below the floor surface. This ensures that that the valves of the irrigation system from damage protected by the cattle are.

If in the corridor surface provided along the direction of movement of the manure slide grooves and the tubes between the grooves are arranged parallel thereto, the corridors between the grooves are evenly moistened.

The fact that preferably the hall floor is provided with an elastic and slip-resistant covering, in particular bitumen, and the pipes of the irrigation system are poured into this covering, in addition to those in the DE 100 50 853 C1 described benefits of bituminous coating realized a cost-effective manufacturing possibility of the hall floor. After completion of the concrete floor, an irrigation pipe with the connecting channels is placed pointing upwards between the grooves described in the aforementioned prior art. Subsequently, the bitumen layer is filled via the irrigation tube between the grooves to the upper edges of the grooves.

If next to the irrigation system a heating system is arranged in the hall floor, on the one hand at particularly low outside temperatures avoided the risk of freezing the irrigation system. Furthermore, the hall floor is slightly heated, which provides the comfort for the cattle elevated. Preferably, the heating system embedded in the hall floor, with a heat transfer medium flowing through Pipes on.

Thereby, that in Advantageously, a control unit for the irrigation system is provided, the fluid intake and / or the fluid pressure In the system controls, the land surface moistening can be timed and depending on the event be controlled. This will both the water consumption as well the harassment for the Livestock reduced.

at the working method, for example, controlled by the control unit will be with a short exposure time before the start of a defluxing movement the irrigation to moisten the hall bottom and at the beginning of the conveying movement switched off. This ensures that the water only immediately before the Ausmistvorgang the corridor surface and in particular on it Moist surface layers are moistened and dissolved. Then the beginning of the conveying movement the irrigation turned off and the moistened and dissolved topcoat recorded with the slider. The cleaning result is so with a very small amount of water has been significantly improved.

In Another embodiment of the method is provided that the irrigation system by increasing the pressure triggered and switched off by pressure reduction.

In huge stables with long floor floors it is advantageous if the valves of the irrigation system in the conveying direction of the Ausmistsystems be triggered successively. The exposure time the liquid on the corridor surface can thus be personalized to the conveying process the Ausmistschiebers be adapted along the corridor floor. It can in the hall floor successively arranged pipe sections separated from each other be controlled by a control unit pressure regulating. For example the successively arranged in series or staggered pipe sections over a Timing controlled so that before the start of the conveying movement of the Ausmistschiebers in the direction of movement of the first pipe section pressurized is irrigated and thus a first hall floor section. To a corresponding preset time, the conveyor movement begins the Ausmistschiebers and in the conveying direction first pipe section is turned off while in the conveying direction second pipe section is activated. Accordingly, the others Pipe sections for targeted humidification associated Flurbodenabschnitte pressurized and switched off accordingly.

following is an embodiment of Invention described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
