Description

POOR LAYER SORTING METHOD}

The present invention relates to a ferrous acid-based screening method, and in particular, to provide a ferric acid-based screening method that allows only a ferric acid system to be finally selected.

There are approximately 68 million laying hens raised nationwide at poultry farms.

Chickens that produce eggs for the purpose of obtaining eggs are called laying hens. Young chickens for breeding purposes are called breeding, and there are about 59 million laying hens except for the breeding system nationwide.

About 14 percent of the laying hens, or 14.28 million, are birds that do not lay eggs or produce less than average birds. These chickens are called hyangsan.

There are many factors besides diseases that can not lay eggs. These and the mountains are being raised together with the laying hens because they are difficult to find even when they do not lay eggs.

The amount of feed consumed by this metabolic system is about 48,000 tons per year, which is equivalent to about 21.6 billion won in terms of amount of feed.

In other words, the failure to screen the surveillance system would result in an annual loss of KRW 21.6 billion in the domestic poultry industry.

Therefore, it is urgently required to remove the hyperacute from the laying hens.

However, most of the methods for extracting the hyperglycemic system from the laying hens have been through observing closely the amount of feed, the eating of the feed, or the behavior when treating the person.

It is difficult to distinguish the hyperglycemia due to close observation, and it is hard to find out unless it is an expert. Also, it is necessary to observe a large number of chickens individually to select the hyperglycemia.

In order to solve such a problem, there has been proposed a system for monitoring a laying hens in a high-level upright type scattering system cage proposed in the Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-2007-0095250 (published on September 28, 2007) have.

The above-described prior art 'laying-table monitoring system in a high-standing upright type scattering system cage' is composed of a video camera, a camera driving device, a position sensor and a communication unit, a monitoring device and a central monitoring device, The apparatus is capable of automatically discriminating the sick and dead systems by the program having the image processing algorithm incorporated therein, and thus it is advantageous to solve the problem that a highly skilled expert, who has to invest a great deal of time and effort, .

However, there are many factors besides diseases that cause the egg to not lay eggs.

In other words, there are many factors influencing the spawning of chickens, including not only diseases but also the temperature of the house, increase of ammonia concentration due to bad ventilation, improper lighting management, rats, noise, visitors, feeding problems, nutrient deficiency,

Therefore, in order to algoritize all the possible metabolic behaviors including diseases of a large number of chickens, it takes a great deal of money to develop a program. In addition, in the above conventional art, there is a problem that a complicated device for driving a camera and recognizing a position is required And it is extremely difficult to algorithmically alleviate many scattering factors.

Therefore, a simpler and more inexpensive apparatus is required to identify the acid system, and it is possible to classify the acid system more reliably and effectively by judging whether or not it is the acid system by simply examining the output itself rather than observation of the behavior of the acid system A screening system and a screening system equipped with means are required.

The specific structure or functional description presented in the embodiment of the present invention is merely illustrative for the purpose of illustrating an embodiment according to the concept of the present invention, and embodiments according to the concept of the present invention can be implemented in various forms. And should not be construed as limited to the embodiments described herein, but should be understood to include all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the invention.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First, the basic structure of the ferrous acid sorting system according to the present invention will be briefly described, and the operation of each structure and the interaction between the respective structures will be described in detail, and then the ferrous acid sorting method according to the present invention will be described in detail.

The basic structure of the perchloric acid sorting system according to the present invention is as shown in Fig. 1, in which a cage portion 10 in which a plurality of individual cages 11 in which a chicken is accommodated is gathered, A transfer unit 20 for transferring the eggs, and a sensor unit 40 for recognizing and counting the number of eggs discharged for each individual cage 11.

In detail, the cage 10 comprises a cage of a conventional poultry farm.

The cage portion 10 is made up of a scattering cage cage in which the scattering system shown in Fig. 1 is accommodated and a hyperactive cage in which the scattering system shown in Fig. 5 is accommodated.

The individual cage 11 constituting the cage portion 10 of the laying motion coin is made of steel bars so as to communicate with the outside like the cage of a normal poultry farm. Inside the cage is housed two to about seven chickens.

The individual cage 11 constituting the cage 10 of the acid system is also the same as the cage of a conventional poultry farm but instead only one chicken is accommodated in one individual cage 11 and the internal area of the individual cage 11 One chicken is appropriately formed to be accommodated.

As shown in FIG. 1, the conveying unit 20 is disposed parallel to the direction in which the individual cages 11 are arranged in parallel to each other to facilitate the confinement, and the conveying unit 20 and the cage unit 10 are connected to the connecting unit 30 .

The connection portion 30 serves to guide the egg discharged from the cage portion 10 to the transfer portion 20. The connecting portion 30 is a passage in which a slope is formed from the cage portion 10 toward the conveying portion 20. Since the position of the conveying portion 20 is generally lower than that of the cage portion 10, 10 so that the eggs can be rolled to the lower conveying part 20. [ The inclination of the connecting portion 30 at this time is preferably 7 degrees to 9 degrees.

4A and 4B conceptually show the connection 30.

As shown in FIG. 4A, the connection section 30 is provided with a narrow section S. The narrow section (S) is formed to have a width such that only one egg can be rolled down freely, and the width is formed such that two eggs can not pass simultaneously.

At this time, the guide 32 may be installed so that the egg discharged from the cage can be easily guided to the narrow section S. FIG. 4A shows the guide 32 installed.

The reason why the narrow section S is installed is that the eggs are collected so as to be located at the central position of the section of the conveyance section 20 allocated to the individual cage 11 so that the egg yield can be easily counted for each individual cage 11 to be described later So that the number of eggs passing along the connection portion 30 can be counted in the connection portion 30 as well.

That is, as shown in FIG. 4A, a sensor capable of detecting passage of eggs is provided in the connection unit 30, so that the number of eggs calculated for each cage 11 can be counted once in the connection unit 30.

At this time, the sensor provided on the connection part 30 is the first egg recognition sensor 44.

The first egg recognition sensor 44 may be a mechanical or electronic pressure sensor. Although the infrared sensor can be installed, since the first egg recognition sensor 44 is provided for each individual cage 11, it is preferable that a mechanical or electronic pressure sensor is installed in consideration of cost and effectiveness.

In particular, since the guide 32 and the narrow section S are provided, the first egg recognition sensor 44 can easily count eggs one by one.

As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the connection unit 30 may be provided with circuit breakers 36 and 37 including a blocking plate 37 and a rotating shaft 36. The operation of the breakers 36 and 37 will be described together with the markers 22 installed in the transfer unit 20. [

Prior to the description of the breakers 36 and 37 and the marker 22, the timing at which the ferrous acid sorting system according to the present invention operates in earnest will be described first.

The time for chickens to lay eggs is usually morning from dawn. Therefore, in the morning time during which the scattering of chickens is concentrated, the transfer unit 20 is in a stopped state.

The transportation section 20 starts operating from 11:00 am, which is about the end of spawning of chickens, from the time zone. This is because it is unnecessary to operate the transfer unit 20 for a long period of time because it consumes unnecessary power energy if the transfer unit 20 is operated while the birds are not scattered or the birds are scattered.

And the amount of eggs discharged for each cage 11 only when the conveying unit 20 is operated can be counted in a short period of time. If the number of cages is small and the time margin is large, it is not necessary to count the number of eggs while the conveyance unit 20 is operated. However, the number of eggs is counted while the individual cage 11 is circulated In reality, it is extremely difficult.

However, several means suggested by the present invention are necessary for counting the number of eggs discharged from the individual cage 11 during the operation of the transfer unit 20.

First, since the number of eggs discharged from each individual cage 11 can be counted for each individual cage 11, the means for dividing the discharged eggs into cages are required.

That sort of thing And the marker 22.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the markers 22 are installed on the conveying unit 20 arranged in parallel in the direction in which the cages are arranged side by side, corresponding to the boundary of the cage.

The marker 22 is recognized by the gate 41 through which the conveyor passes when the conveying unit 20 is operated and the conveyor on which the eggs are placed in the conveying unit 20 proceeds to identify whether the eggs loaded on the conveyor are discharged from which cage .

At this time, a mechanical or electronic recognition means is required to indicate that the marker 22 is a marker 22 of a specific individual cage 11 without a procedure of confirming with a human eye.

At this time, there may be various means for acting the marker 22. As one of the most effective means, RFID technology can be applied to the recognition means of the marker 22 and the marker 22. [

The RFID technology is a technology that allows a reader to recognize an object moving at a high speed without any error, and a unique signal given to the chipset 222 is recognized by a reader by an antenna coil 221 installed around the chipset 222.

The marker 22 according to the present invention corresponds to an RFID tag including the chipset 222 and the antenna coil 221 and is installed in the reader as shown in FIG. .

The signal read from the reader is transferred to the middleware and digital signal converter shown in FIG. 3C and converted into a processable signal.

That is, counting is started with the signal received from the marker 22, and when the next marker 22 is displayed, the counting of the egg ends and starts again.

At this time, since the marker 22 is given a unique number and one of the individual cages 11 is displayed, when one marker 22 passes through the gate 41, the eggs appearing thereafter are moved to the marker 22 It is recognized that the egg is discharged from any recognized cage and the quantity is recorded.

The counting and calculation of the egg quantity of each individual cage 11 compiled in this manner can be performed by attaching a small computer to the gate 41 shown in FIG. 3A, but it is preferable that a separate controller 60 is provided, 41 and the counted number of the second egg recognition sensor 43, and stores the received count data and the calculated data.

The second egg recognition sensor 43 may be a pressure sensor or an infrared sensor since it is installed only at the gate.

The control unit 60 sorts the counts for a certain period of time, first compares the total amount with the minimum reference amount, and then identifies the individual cages 11 that have left the scattering record that is less than the minimum reference amount, and classifies the same into a metric system.

In addition, even if the total amount of spawning for a certain period is larger than the minimum reference amount, the calculation of the spawning amount can be used to classify the overweight system.

5 shows a configuration in which chickens in the individual cage 11 estimated by the over-acid system are separated and housed in the individual cage 12 for one catfish strain, and ultimately can be estimated.

Here, H1, H6, and H15 in FIG. 5 do not indicate the individual cages 11, but represent the cages in the cage 11, which are assumed to be housed in the individual cages 11 of the laying horse.

In other words, if the cages of H1, H6, and H15 in the laying hens were assumed to be accommodated, the chickens in H1, H6, and H15 could be seen in Fig.

The same procedure can be used in the hyperactivation procedure to identify hypertrophic organisms.

On the other hand, when two chicken for laying hens are housed in the individual cage 11, the floor area of each cage is larger than 0.05 square meters and smaller than 0.1 square meters.

The area coverage of these individual cages is a result of a long study by the applicant that the scope for minimizing the cage area without the two chickens being stressed is that the cage for the two cages has a floor area between 0.05 and 0.1 square meters Because it came out.

Hereinafter, a ferrous-acid-based screening method using the ferric acid-based screening system according to the present invention will be described.

We will briefly explain the time required to calculate the total amount of scattering for screening of the metabolic system before examining the method of screening for the acid.

On the basis of one chicken, most chickens gave birth to the first egg and the next day did not lay eggs. In the first week of laying, about 4 eggs were born and about 60% of the eggs were produced. In the second to third weeks, After laying the largest number of eggs, the number of laying eggs gradually decreased.

However, based on the chicken population, the average egg production rate increases fairly quickly and steadily after spawning, reaching more than 90 percent after about 7 to 8 weeks. With the peak of this scattering peak as a peak, it gradually begins to decrease.

The reason for the difference in the timing of spawning between individuals and genders is that they can not start spawning on the same day because they have different weights among the genders. Scattering peak of the group is about 7 to 10 weeks after acetic acid.

In the present invention, the feeding unit 20 is operated to count the number of eggs scattered, as described above, every day, and the time zone is approximately 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. However, there may be time variations.

The criterion for determining the operation time of the transfer unit 20 is a point at which the scattering time is approximately finished, and generally, the scattering is from morning to morning.

However, as we have already seen, there may be days when normal laying eggs do not lay eggs.

Therefore, it is necessary to measure the amount of scattering for a certain period of time. At this time, there is no particular limitation on the measurement period of the scattering amount for the selection of the nucleic acid, but the measurement can be carried out for about 1 to 2 weeks based on the reason described above.

This is because the screening of hyperglycemia does not select populations, but rather selects specific individuals.

Therefore, the period for observing the cumulative total amount of scattering or the change in scattering amount and the period for determining the minimum reference scattering amount may be set to approximately one week to two weeks.

However, it should be noted that the time period for which the amount of laying is determined may be changed depending on the situation or the breed or environment.

Hereinafter, a method for selecting a ferrous acid based on the present invention will be described.

As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the ferrous-acid-based sorting method according to the present invention includes a first step of stopping the transfer unit 20 while an egg is discharged from the cage unit 10 to the transfer unit 20 for a predetermined period of time, A second step of counting the number of eggs discharged for each individual cage 11 by operating the conveying unit 20 after the lapse of the predetermined time to identify a cage whose reference value is less than the amount of discharged eggs, The third step is to accommodate one chicken in the cage and the third step in the cage, which is presumed to contain a hypochlorous acid according to the method described above. And a fourth step of discriminating the spectral system.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 3A, in the second step, the markers 22 are installed in the transfer unit 20 in the same interval as the arrangement of the individual cages 11, And the unique number of the marker 22 is discriminated at the gate 41 when the conveying unit 20 is passed through the gate 41 so as to count the number of eggs discharged by each cage 11. [

In the second and fourth steps, when the transfer unit 20 is operated, the connection unit 30 can be shut off by the circuit breakers 36 and 37.

This is because when the feeding unit 20 is operated and the amount of scattered eggs is counted, the new egg quantity can not be added any more.

In the second and fourth steps, the information of the sensor unit 40 is received and the egg discharge amount of the individual cage 11 is counted and stored for each unit time, and the egg discharge amount of the individual cage 11 And then comparing the value obtained by adding the egg discharge amount between the individual cages 11 to the minimum reference amount to discriminate the cage which is supposed to contain the over-acid system by selecting the cage whose egg discharge amount is less than the minimum reference amount .

The second and fourth steps may further include storing separately counted egg quantity data from the first egg recognition sensor and the second egg recognition sensor and comparing the stored data to generate a notification signal if the difference is greater than a predetermined number As shown in FIG.

By generating the notification signal, the administrator can more easily recognize the occurrence of the transmission system.

Even if the total amount of spawning over a certain period of time exceeds the minimum reference value, it may contain a metric system.

For example, at the beginning of a certain period, the amount of spawning is normal.

In this case, the control unit 60 determines whether there is a change in the egg production rate during a certain period of time. If the amount of egg production during the period when the egg production rate is lowered is less than the reference value,

Meanwhile, the ferrous acid sorting system according to the present invention can be more conveniently controlled by using a smart phone.

In other words, a cage with a surrogate system can be immediately identified by installing an overtone control app on a smart phone and receiving estimates and metrics by wireless communication with the control unit 60. In addition, a change in the egg production rate over a certain period can be detected by a smart phone You can configure your app to be

In this case, the control unit 60 also serves as a server module.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the inventions. It will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art.
