Description

Multi function air cooler controled by humidity in cattle shed}

The present invention relates to a cooler for supplying cold air to the inside of the barn, and more specifically, it is interlocked when the humidity inside the barn is low and can maximize the growth ability of livestock by supplying cold air of appropriate humidity to the inside of the barn. It is about a cooler.

Recently, as livestock farms have become large and complex, the method of densely rearing many livestock inside standardized livestock sheds is generally popular, and this method of breeding livestock is an appropriate breeding method in a country with a small country like Korea.

On the other hand, in the respiration and manure of livestock raised, many odors such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide are generated, and the odor pollutes the air inside the shed, making the growing environment poor. Therefore, a ventilation port is installed in the house to forcibly exhaust the air containing odors and fresh air from outside is brought into the inside of the house.

However, since the weather in spring or autumn is dry, dry air from outside flows into the house during the ventilation process and becomes dry.

In addition, because many livestock are reared in a narrow space, the inside of the shed has risen excessively due to the body heat of the livestock. Even in spring or autumn, air conditioners are used to cool the inside of the house to lower the temperature inside the house.

In other words, in dry weather in spring or autumn, when ventilation or air conditioner is operated, the humidity inside the barn is lowered.

However, when the humidity inside the barn is low and dry, livestock are easily exposed to respiratory diseases, and in this case, the growth is slowed due to disease or poor feeding, leading to a decrease in productivity. And in severe cases, it caused death of livestock.

Here, the water level valve 52 may be implemented in various ways, and this embodiment is illustrated as using the water level valve 52 interlocked with the buoy 52a floating by the water accommodated in the water storage tank 15.

Circulation supply unit 60, as shown in Figure 3, the water pump 61 for pumping the water (W) accommodated in the water storage tank 15, and the first, 2, 3, 4 cooling pads 31 ( 32) (33) (34) a plurality of spray nozzles 62 facing the upper side, and a guide pipe for guiding the water (W) pumped by being connected to the outlet of the submersible pump 61 to the spray nozzle 62 ( 63).

The spray nozzle 62 is elongated along the upper side of the first, second, third, and fourth cooling pads 31, 32, 33, and 34, and has a structure in which a fine nozzle through which water is sprayed downward is formed. .

The guide pipe 63 may be connected to a plurality of spray nozzles 62 in series or in parallel.

With this structure, the water pumped from the submersible pump 61 through the guide pipe 63 is the first, second, third, and fourth cooling pads 31, 32, and 33 through a plurality of spray nozzles 62 Spray to the upper side of (34), so that the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th cooling pads 31, 32, 33 and 34 are simultaneously wetted accordingly.

The blowing fan 70, as shown in FIG. 3, is installed on the lower side of the exhaust duct 20, and includes first, second, third, and fourth air filter units 41, 42, 43, 44, and Air introduced through the first, second, third, and fourth cooling pads 31, 32, 33, and 34 is discharged.

The water sprayed from the spray nozzle 62 of the circulation supply unit 60 is absorbed by the first, second, third, and fourth cooling pads 31, 32, 33, 34, and the blowing fan 70 is wetted. ) Is operated, a negative pressure is generated inside the cooler body 10. Then, the outside air is supplied with the first, second, third, and fourth air filter units 41, 42, 43, 44 and the first, second, third, and fourth cooling pads 31, 32, 33, 34 After passing through and flowing into the cooler body 10, it is exhausted into the house C through the exhaust duct 20. At this time, the air passing through the first, second, third, and fourth cooling pads 31, 32, 33, and 34 is the first, second, third, and fourth cooling pads 31, 32, 33, ( The temperature is lowered by the heat of vaporization of the water absorbed by 34), and the cool air contains vaporized moisture, and the humidity of the cold air eventually rises. The temperature of the cold air generated at this time is 5 to 10°C lower than the outside temperature.

As shown in FIG. 2, the humidity measuring unit 80 is installed in a predetermined part inside the house C, and generates a corresponding humidity signal H by measuring the humidity inside the house C. The humidity measuring unit 80 senses that the humidity inside the house C is lowered and transmits a corresponding humidity signal H to the control unit 100.

As shown in FIG. 3, the sterilization unit 90 includes a tower body 91 installed in the upper center of the table 16, and an ultraviolet lamp 92 supported by the tower body 91 to irradiate ultraviolet rays for sterilization. ), and a transparent cap 93 that is coupled to the tower body 91 after covering the ultraviolet lamp 92.

Since bacteria or viruses are removed from the inside of the cooler body 10 by the sterilization unit 90, there are no bacteria or viruses in the cool air exhausted to the house C.

The control unit 100 controls the operation of the circulation supply unit 60 and the blowing fan 70 in connection with the humidity signal H generated by the humidity measurement unit 80.

In spring or autumn, there is a lot of dry weather, and because many livestock are reared inside the shed (C), the temperature inside the shed (C) is high, which causes slowing of livestock growth. In particular, livestock is more affected by humidity than temperature, and chilly temperatures in spring or autumn do not affect growth. In other words, the factors that have the greatest influence on livestock growth are humidity and high temperature.

The cooler of the present invention, when the temperature inside the barn C is high in spring and autumn and the humidity is low, the humidity measuring unit 80 measures this and generates a corresponding humidity signal H, and the control unit 100 Is to perform an operation mechanism to operate the circulation supply unit 60 and the blowing fan 70 in conjunction with the humidity signal (H).
