Description

Incubator {Egg Incubator}

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an incubator, and more particularly, to an incubator in which an air circulation portion is disposed between a heat transfer portion and an egg portion to increase a hatching rate.

The incubator is a device for artificially hatching fertilized eggs and is generally used to hatch fertilized eggs of birds. These incubators regulate temperature and humidity so that the embryos can hatch, and the embryos are defrosted so that each part of the embryo is evenly warmed.

Here, the term " egg yolk " means that heat is transferred to the entire fertilized egg, thereby inducing uniform generation not totally deviated. In other words, in the natural state, the mother bird continues to return the position and direction of the embryos to the beak, but in order to make the artificial hatching, the position and direction of the embryos must be returned instead of the machine or person.

A Korean patent (Incubator, 10-1251883) is related to an incubator capable of simultaneously propagating a large amount of fertilized eggs using a single driving device. The conventional art has a problem that the hatching efficiency is lowered because heat is not uniformly supplied and it is difficult to introduce eggs into the incubator.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide an incubator having a high hatching rate by disposing an air circulation unit between a heat transfer unit and an egg whitening unit.

The present invention provides an incubator comprising: a heat transfer unit for supplying heat to the interior of an incubator using a heat ray; an air circulation unit disposed below the heat transfer unit and configured to discharge wind generated from the heat transfer unit to circulate heat upward; And an egg transfer part disposed below the circulation part to receive the fertilized egg, wherein the egg transfer part includes a transfer frame arranged to be stackable with an embryo tray, and a full-column drive part for moving the transfer frame at a predetermined angle, And rotates the turntable rotation axis to tilt the turntable frame at a certain angle with the horizontal plane.

According to the present invention, the incubation efficiency is improved by providing a uniform temperature by using the heating wire and the inner air circulator.

In addition, since the egg plate itself can be fixed, there is an effect that free entry is possible and maintenance is easy.

In this specification, the terms "comprises" or "having" and the like are used to specify that there are features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, parts or combinations thereof described herein, But do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, components, parts, or combinations thereof.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings attached hereto.

1 is a perspective view of an incubator of the present invention.

1, the incubator 100 includes a heat transfer unit 120, an air circulation unit 121, ventilation fans 122, 123 and 124, a turbulence unit 130, a full-column drive unit 140, A pedestal 150, an evaporation fan 151, and a water tank 152.

The heat transfer unit 120 is disposed on the upper side of the main body 110 and can supply heat to the inside of the incubator through a heat line.

The air circulating unit 121 is disposed below the heat transfer unit 120 and discharges the air upward to circulate the heat generated from the heat transfer unit 120 upward. This allows the inside air of the incubator to circulate from top to bottom to maintain a constant temperature and humidity.

The ventilation fans 122, 123, and 124 are disposed on both sides of the frame 110 to vent the contaminated air inside the incubator. The ventilation fans 122, 123, and 124 may be disposed on the upper and lower surfaces of the main body 110 to adjust the internal airflow.

The egg part 130 is disposed below the air circulation part and accommodates a fertilized egg tray in a plurality of egg transfer frames. The laminated tray can accommodate a plurality of layers, and the embryo tray can be used as an egg plate sold on the market, which is convenient for the user to use.

The full-column driving unit 140 may be connected to the full-column unit 130 to generate a rotational force to move horizontally, and may operate to tilt the full-column unit of the full-length unit 130 at a predetermined angle.

The pedestal 150 can be placed on the lower side of the egg part to accommodate the hatched chicks. The water tank 152 stores water and evaporates water through the evaporation fan 151 to adjust the internal humidity.

2 is a front view of the incubator of the present invention.

2, the air circulation unit 121 is disposed between the heat transfer unit 120 and the turbulence unit 130, and the interval h1 between the heat transfer unit 120 and the air circulation unit 121, The interval h2 between the front portion 121 and the front portion 130 may be the same.

The horizontal width w3 of the turbulence section 130 may be larger than the horizontal width w2 of the air circulation section 121 and wider than the horizontal width w1 of the heat transfer section 120, 121 may be arranged to be narrower than the horizontal width w1 of the heat transfer portion 120. [ According to the arrangement relationship, the inside air of the incubator circulates from top to bottom to maintain a constant temperature and humidity.

FIG. 3 is a partial perspective view showing a state in which a fertilized egg is housed in an egg part of the present invention. FIG. Referring to FIG. 3, the turbulence part 130 may include an upper turret 131, a lower turret 132, a turret support 133, a turret rotation shaft 134, and a turret connection frame 135.

The turntable rotation shaft 134 is connected to the lower side of the turntable connection frame 135 so that when the turntable rotation shaft 134 is horizontally moved, the lower side of the turntable connection frame 135 horizontally moves to move the upper turntable 131 and the lower turntable 132 ) Can be tilted at a certain angle in parallel. Through these operations, embryos housed in the egg frame can be evenly distributed.

The fertilized egg tray 170 can accommodate a plurality of fertilized eggs and the upper egg transfer frame 131 and the lower egg transfer frame 132 can receive the fertilized egg tray 170.

The full-line drive unit 140 is connected to the full-rotation axis 134 of the full-length unit 130 to generate a rotational force.

4 is a view for explaining a control circuit of the incubator of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, the incubator receives power from a voltage source 209 and supplies power to the turbulence driving unit 140, the air circulation unit 121, and the heat transfer unit 120 via the transformer 202. The power supply passes through the ventilation fan control line 204 and the heating line control line 205, respectively. The central control device 201 collects the information of the ON / OFF state of the power switch 207 and the full-stroke switch 208 and the temperature and humidity sensor 200 and controls the whole-column driving unit 140, the air circulating unit 121, ). In addition, the temperature / humidity display 206 can display the current state of the temperature and humidity. The temperature and humidity sensor 200 measures the temperature and humidity of the inside of the incubator and adjusts the amount of wind and the direction of the wind in the air circulator.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is evident that many alternatives, modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, the true scope of the present invention should be determined by the technical idea of the appended claims.
