Description

The utility model relates to the field of agriculture, in particular to incubators for poultry, and is intended for incubation and hatching of various types of poultry both at home and in farms.

In the prior art, an incubator is known that comprises a thermally insulated body with an egg chamber closed by a door, egg trays placed inside the chamber, a heating and humidity maintenance system, an air exchange system, and an egg turning device made in the form of rollers mounted in trays with the possibility of rotation around its axis (RU 36168 "Incubator", IPC: A01K 41/00, publ. 10.03.2004).

The disadvantage is that the case is made one-piece with a fixed internal volume, therefore, even with partial loading, heating of the entire internal volume is required. Periodic manual rotation of the rollers is required, which can lead to stagnation of eggs in one position and an increase in the reject rate.

The closest analogue of the claimed technical solution is an incubator (RF patent 133386 "Incubator", IPC: A01K 41/00, publ. 10/20/2013) containing a thermally insulated body with an egg chamber, removable egg trays are placed in the upper part of the housing, in which egg rotation mechanisms are built in, made with the possibility of turning a chicken egg no more than 45 degrees, and a goose egg - no more than 180 degrees egg trays. At the bottom of the chamber are a heating device, a device for maintaining and controlling humidity, and a fan. Additionally, the incubator contains an electronic unit and a temperature sensor to maintain a constant temperature.

The disadvantage is that the case is made one-piece with a fixed internal volume, therefore, even with partial loading, heating of the entire internal volume is required. Periodic manual rotation of the rollers is required, which can lead to stagnation of eggs in one position and an increase in the reject rate.

The technical result achieved by the implementation of the proposed technical solution is to increase the percentage yield of young poultry due to the automatic uniform rotation of eggs with a given angular velocity while maintaining reliability and ease of operation.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the incubator contains a thermally insulated body, in which removable cassettes with rollers with built-in turning mechanisms made with the possibility of turning eggs are installed, an electronic climate control unit including a heating system and an air exchange system, a humidity maintenance system, according to a utility model, an incubator made in the form of blocks mounted on top of each other from bottom to top: an electronic climate control unit, a housing and a pallet, while the mechanism for turning eggs is installed ith inside the housing, made in the form of a gear transmission mechanism, driven by a stepper motor; a heating system is located inside in the central part of the climate control unit, an air exchange system is installed in the lower part of the electronic climate control unit above the cassette with rollers; a pan with an ultrasonic evaporator is installed below the casing.

The implementation of the incubator in the form of blocks mounted on top of each other: an electronic climate control unit, a housing and a pallet, allows for ease of repair and replacement of parts, minimal energy consumption to maintain the required parameters (temperature, humidity) at any load level.

The implementation of the mechanism of rotation of eggs in the form of a gear transmission mechanism, driven by a stepper motor, provides the same and uniform warming up of the eggs, thereby increasing the yield of young farm poultry.

The installation of a pallet with an adjustable capacity ultrasonic evaporator from the bottom ensures constant humidity of the required value, which also positively affects the percentage of young poultry output.

The essence of the utility model is illustrated by drawings, where in FIG. 1 shows a General view of the incubator assembly (isometry); in FIG. 2 - the main elements of the incubator in an exploded form; in FIG. 3 - climate control unit; in FIG. 4 - roller cassette.

The incubator is a block design, small-sized, with small dimensions of 50.4 cm × 44.4 cm × 21.4 cm. The supply voltage is 220 V. The climate control electronic unit, the housing and the tray are mounted on top of each other, on the mating surfaces of the incubator blocks in the corners sections are provided with a spike-groove pair for a more reliable fixation of the structure.

A feature of such an incubator is the ability to install multiple cassettes of rollers, and to maintain the specified conditions, no reconfiguration is required. All parameters (temperature, humidity) are monitored by the sensor.

The incubator includes a climate control unit 1 (Fig. 1, Fig. 2), a cassette of rollers 2 for placing and rotating eggs, plastic grids 3 for collecting waste, a housing 4 and a tray 5 for filling water.

The climate control unit 1 (Fig. 3) includes the plastic case of the control unit 6 with a ventilation hole 11, a microprocessor controller 7 with a power connector AC220V 8, a liquid crystal screen 9, control buttons 10 operating modes of the incubator, a lighting lamp 12, a viewing window with a shutter 13, a humidity and temperature sensor 14, an air exchange system consisting of fans 15 and a heating system made of flexible resistive heating elements 16 (Fig. 3).

The cassette of the rollers 2 (Fig. 4) consists of a frame 16 with a stepping motor 17 fixed on it, rotating the plastic rollers 18 using a gear transmission mechanism 19.

Egg rotation is mechanized, it is carried out automatically at a given angular speed, heating is carried out using flexible resistive heating elements, air exchange inside the incubator is forced by two fans, the air is humidified by an ultrasonic evaporator placed in a water tray.

Climate control elements (egg rotation, heating, air exchange and humidification systems) are electrically interconnected, the operation modes of these elements are controlled by a microprocessor controller, while the operator sets the values of the required parameters, the controller monitors the current values of the parameters using a humidity and temperature sensor and automatic mode ensures the equality of current and required values. The main control elements of the operating modes are displayed above and from the ends of the climate control unit 1, the heating elements are inside in the central part of the climate control unit 1, and the humidity and temperature sensor 14 and fans 15 are installed in the lower part of the climate control unit 1 above the cassette of the rollers 2.

The incubator body parts are made of chemically neutral materials: polyethylene, polystyrene, which creates favorable conditions for incubation.

For ease of maintenance, the incubator is made in the form of a block structure.

The claimed technical solution of the incubator allows you to increase the percentage of output of young farm poultry due to the automatic uniform rotation of eggs with a given angular velocity while maintaining reliability and ease of operation.
