专利说明:
MINK FARM EQUIPMENT The present invention relates to a mink suction system comprising: at least one longitudinal row of intermittently spaced mink cages, each having a front wall, a back wall, a top wall, a bottom wall and opposite side walls, at least the side walls being lattice walls with intersecting lattice wires which preferably rectangular mesh openings having a mesh width and a mesh height, each having an inner wall facing the cage and an outer facing, and wherein a nest box is provided with a nest box bottom and nest box back wall with a nest box opening, such as a circular opening, such as a circular opening, a size such that both the puppies and the adult mink can move between nesting box and cage, a drinking water line extending along the cage line, preferably a drinking water system, preferably a drinking water circulation system, comprising a pressurizing agent, such as a pump, for supplying the drinking water line under pressure water. Such a plant with a drinking water valve connected to the drinking water line is well known in most mink farms. The drinking water valves typically have a horizontal actuation tap which, when pressed, causes the valve to dispense water and which is typically placed on the rear wall of the cages. This is an appropriate place for adults as they move freely around the cage and as well as drinking, they will typically provide in the rear area of the cage as well. Furthermore, in this area often a gurgling is placed under the cages. However, this placement of a drinking water valve is not very suitable for the puppies, as the puppies begin to eat feed for approx. 4 weeks after birth. From then on until week 7-8 the puppies are in great need of water, but are unsafe by moving outside the nest box or too far away from the nest box and especially right up to the drinking water valve on the back wall of the cage. The result is that some puppies consume too little water and get lost or strain the bitch by receiving fluid from her mouth, which can result in the bitch being lost. To alleviate the above problems, it has been proposed to place water bowls on the bottom of the cage, place drinking valves in the nest box and place so-called rabbit migrants on the top wall of the cage or nest box. The former proposal has the disadvantage that in the relatively small nest box due to the activity of the puppies relatively much water is discharged, and the nest box thereby becomes moist, which can cause health problems, and the disadvantage that the puppies do not get used to moving outside the nest box and drink of the drinking water valve on the back wall. The second suggestion has the disadvantage that the puppies crawl into the bowls and contaminate the water and the cage. Furthermore, it is difficult and time-consuming to replace and fill the bowls with water. The latter pre-sale has the disadvantage that it is difficult and time-consuming to add water to the rabbit holders' containers and that no fresh water is delivered to the puppies unless the water in the containers is changed quite often. The object of the invention is to alleviate or solve the above-mentioned drawbacks and problems, in particular that fresh water is constantly being delivered to the puppies and that they become accustomed to drinking from drinking water valves and moving into the cage and also start drinking from the drinking valve on the back wall. In order to achieve the above object, the mink suction system according to the invention is arranged in the cages on the inside of one of the side walls and retained a drinking valve with an inlet which is connected to the drinking water line via a branched branch and a downwardly extending outlet and in connection with a downwardly extending protrusion. actuating pin, and wherein the valve is configured to open, by a slight axial and / or lateral touch or actuation of the actuating pin, the valve, thereby delivering water at least in the form of a drop of water, said actuating pin having a lower end located 1 to 8 cm, such as 2 to 6 cm or 3 to 5 cm, above the bottom wall of the cage and at a distance from the nearest point of the edge of the nest box opening at a maximum of 20 cm, such as at most 15 cm, at most 12.5 cm or at most 10 cm. By placing a drinking water valve close to the nest box opening in the cages, the puppies will move to the valve relatively early and touch the valve actuation pin either consciously or unknowingly by moving into it as it is positioned low and facing downwards so that water is released at least in the form of a drop of water, after which they will quickly experience and learn that water is released by touching the activation pin. In addition, the supply of water to the drinking valves from a drinking water line belonging to a drinking water system, preferably a drinking water circulation system, causes the valves to deliver fresh water upon activation. The drinking water system may further comprise a water tank to which a flow line and a return line are connected, and wherein the water line and possibly additional water lines are connected in parallel between the flow and return lines. The drinking water conduit or drinking water conduits may extend along the underside of the cages, along the upper side of the cages or along the back or front of the cages. It is presently preferred that the drinking water line extend along the underside of the cages and preferably vertically below the drinking valves, so that the length of the branch lines up to the valves is as short as possible. The beverage valve may be arranged so that the downwardly activating pin forms an angle of between 0 and 45 °, such as between 0 and 30 ° or between 0 and 15 °, vertically. According to one embodiment, the valve is connected to the branch line via a coupling element with a connecting channel connecting the inlet of the valve to the interior of the branch line. The valve or the coupling element connected to the valve may be retained in a clip attached to the grating wall by retaining engagement with grating wires belonging to the grating wall. According to a further embodiment of the invention, the branch line branched from the drinking water line is located in the space delimited by the side wall on which the valve is placed and the adjacent side wall of the adjacent cage in the row of cages. This ensures that the branch cord does not take up space in the cage and further that the minks cannot come into direct contact with it and possibly damage or destroy it. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, a portion of the coupling member extends through a mesh aperture in the side wall. Furthermore, according to one embodiment, a portion of the coupling member portion extending through a mesh opening in the sidewall may have an outer profile substantially similar to the shape of the mesh opening and fitting tightly therein. In this way, a positioning of the valve is achieved in the desired position where the activation pin is facing downwards. An outer profile which substantially corresponds to the shape of the mesh opening is to be understood broadly and covers both that said profile is substantially identical to the shape of the mesh opening and that the cross-section of the piece of the portion extending through the mesh opening has projections such as knobs or ribs which cause it to fit substantially snugly into the mesh opening. According to an embodiment of the invention, the coupling element adjacent to the part of the coupling element extending through the mesh opening has a flange, chest or protruding region abutting at least two opposing grating threads on the inside of the sidewall. In a presently preferred embodiment, the connection between the coupling element and the branch line comprises a male part of the coupling element which is sealingly and releasably connected to a female part of the branch line or vice versa. Said connection between a male part and a female part may, for example, be a threaded connection, e.g. with high pitch thread or bayonet coupling. The connection between the male part and the female part may further be configured to move one or more regions of the coupling element and the branch line towards each other for holding engagement with a region of the intermediate grid. This provides a simple holding of the valve to the side wall grille. According to a convenient embodiment, the branch conduit comprises a tubular element provided with the female portion sealingly and releasably connected to the male portion of the portion of the coupling element extending through a mesh opening or vice versa. According to a further embodiment of the invention, the coupling element has a downwardly facing female part, and the tubular element is essentially in the form of an elongated body T-piece having at first and upper ends a male part which engages with said female part or vice versa. , and at opposite opposite and lower ends have transverse arms connected to the water conduit and at least a portion, such as a laterally projecting portion of the body, abutting the outside of the grating wall. In addition to the mink suction system according to the invention, the present invention also relates to a valve arrangement for placing and fixing on a grid wall with mesh openings in a mink suction system according to the invention, comprising: - a drinking valve having an inlet at a first end and an outlet at a second opposite end, and a protruding actuating pin located adjacent to the outlet and wherein the valve is configured to open, by a slight axial or lateral touch or actuation of the actuating pin, the valve for dispensing liquid in the form of at least one drop of liquid, - a coupling element comprising a in relation to the longitudinal axis of the valve actuating pin transverse portion having a first section in which the valve is provided with protruding actuating pin and a second section designed for insertion into a mesh aperture separated from the first portion of a protruding flange , chest or protruding area, having a transverse dimension greater than the mesh aperture transverse dimension, and wherein the transverse portion has an inner connecting channel which at one end is fluidly connected to the inlet of the valve and at its other opposite end has a coupling element inlet with a connecting means, and - a tubular element having an elongated body having a first free end having a pipe element outlet having a connecting means configured for a paired sealing and releasable engagement with the connecting means of the connecting element inlet, and having at its opposite second end preferably transverse opposite arms with inlet at opposite ends of the arms, and the pipe element thus essentially having the shape of a tee. It should be noted that instead of projecting arms at the other opposite end, the elongated body may have a tubular element inlet with a connecting means arranged to be connected to a corresponding connecting element on a drinking water line. According to an embodiment of the valve arrangement, the second section of the transverse portion of the coupling element up to the flange has a piece or area with an outer contour, the height and / or width of which corresponds to the height and / or width of the mesh opening. Hereby said piece or region provides, by inserting the second section of the transverse part of the coupling element, a control and positioning of the coupling element in the mask opening. According to a further embodiment of the valve arrangement according to the invention, the coupling element inlet of the coupling element and its connecting means has an axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the valve actuating pin, and the T-shaped pipe element outlet element and associated connecting means is an axial outlet at the first free end of the pipe. body. According to an alternative embodiment of the valve arrangement according to the invention, the coupling element inlet of the coupling element and its connecting means has an axis which is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the valve actuating pin, and the T-shaped pipe element's pipe element outlet and associated connection means is a radial outlet in the pipe element, closed first free end. The coupling means of said coupling element and pipe element configured for a paired sealing and releasable engagement are preferably of the type of male and female cooperating type, such as threaded engagement or bayonet coupling engagement. According to a further embodiment of the invention, the coupling element and the pipe element as well as said connecting means of the coupling element and the pipe element are configured to move one or more areas of the coupling element and the pipe element towards each other for holding engagement with an area of the intermediate grid network when said connecting elements are in paired engagement. each other.

In FIG. 1 schematically shown mincope drainage system 1 comprises two parallel rows 2a, 2b separated by a central aisle 7 of cages 3 with associated nest box 4 spaced apart 5, and a drinking water system 6, specifically a water circulating drinking water system. The nest box is disposed adjacent to the front wall 11 of the cage and has in its rear wall 13 one in FIG. 1, not shown in box 12 opening shown in FIG. 2, which allows the minks to move between the nest box and the cage. The drinking water system 6 comprises a water tank 8, in which is mounted a dive pump (not shown), from which a supply line 9 is provided, from which there is a drinking water line 10 extending along rows 2a, 2b of cages 3 below them and seen from above close to the front walls of the cages. 11. A branch line 15 is branched from the drinking water line 10 for each cage 3, which in the presently preferred embodiment is a pipe element belonging to a drinking valve arrangement 16, which extends upwards in the space 5 between two cages 2. At its upper end is the pipe element connected to a coupling element 17 also associated with the beverage valve arrangement with a beverage valve 18 disposed in the cage as shown in FIG. 2 and 3, and as will be described in more detail below. In FIG. 1, the drinking water line 10 extends from above in U-shape and is connected to a return line 14 which carries water back to the tank 8. It should be understood that in practice each row 2a, 2b of cages 3 will contain substantially more cages than the twelve shown. in Ffig.l, and that a mink farm will also usually have more rows of cages than the two shown. Minkfarne thus typically has more than 100 cages in each row today and often more than 1000 cages in total. As can be seen most clearly in FIG. 2 and 3a and 3b, each cage has the aforementioned front wall 11, a rear wall 19, a top wall 20, a bottom wall 21 and opposite side walls 22,23. All of the walls are usually lattice walls with intersecting lattice wires 24,25 defining rectangular mesh openings 26 having a mesh height and a mesh width, as shown for the sidewalls 22, 23 in FIG. 3a. The side walls 22, 23 have an inner face 27 of the cage 2 and an outside face 28. The rear wall 13 of the nest box 4 forms a lower part of the front wall 11 of the cage 3, and the opening 12 of the nest box shown in a circular size is such that the minks, ie both the bitch and the puppies can move between the nest box and the cage. As shown in FIG. 3a and 3b, as previously mentioned, on the inside 27 of the sidewall 22 is provided a drinking valve 18 associated with the drinking valve arrangement 16. The drinking valve 18 has at its upper end a not shown upper inlet and at its lower end a downwardly extending outlet 30 and adjacent For this purpose, a downwardly projecting actuating pin 31 with a lower end 32. The valve 18 is of the kind that delivers liquid, at least one drop of liquid, by a slight lateral touch or influence of the actuating pin. The lower end 32 of the actuating pin 31 is spaced at a distance h from the bottom wall 21 of the cage 3, between 1 to 8 cm, such as 2 to 6 cm, and especially 3 to 5 cm, so that the puppies can easily touch it and thus activate the valve for delivery. of water. Further, the valve is arranged so that the outer end 32 of the actuating pin 31 is located at a distance a from the nearest point 29 of the edge of the opening 12 of the nest box 4 at a maximum of 20 cm, so that the puppies do not move too far outside the nest box to drink. of the valve. Said first and presently preferred beverage valve arrangement 16 is explained in greater detail below with reference to FIG. 3a to 3e. The coupling element 17 of the beverage valve arrangement 16, in which the beverage valve 18 is received with protruding actuating pin 31, has a transverse portion 33 in relation to the longitudinal axis of the beverage valve actuation pin 31 comprising a first section 36 in which the valve 18 is received and a second section 37 which is designed for insertion into a mesh opening and which is separated from the first section 36 by a protruding flange 35, a chest or projecting region having greater cross-dimensions than the mesh opening. The second region 37 has up to the flange a piece or region 34 having an outer contour corresponding to a mesh opening, so that the second section 37 of the transverse portion 33 of the coupling element 17 can be inserted and received guiding and positioning in the mesh opening secured against rotation. The protruding flange 35 of the coupling member abuts against the inside of the sidewall when the second section is fully inserted into the mesh opening. The transverse portion 33 of the coupling element 17 has an internal connecting channel not shown, which at one end is in fluid communication with the inlet of the valve 18, and at its other end has a coupling element inlet 38, which has an axis which is substantially parallel to the axis of the actuating pin and thus, substantially perpendicular to the transverse portion 33. To the coupling element inlet 38 is attached a female bayonet coupling connector 39 which is designed to be connected to the bayonet coupling male portion 40 of the tube element 15. The tube element 15 is substantially in the form of a T-bar. a piece having an elongated body 41 having at its first end 42 an axial tube member outlet 43 with said bayonet coupling connector male portion 40, and at its second opposite end 47 having transversely opposite arms 44a, 44b with inlet 45a, 45b at the opposite ends of the arms. The arms are arranged to be connected to the drinking water conduit 10. The body 41 is provided with two diametrically opposite projections 46a, 46b which are located on the same plane as the elongated body and the arms. The projections 46a, 46b are located at such a distance from the male part and have such radial extent that when the male part is pivoted into locking engagement with the female part of the coupling member 17, and the second section 37 of the transverse portion 33 of the coupling member 17 is inserted guiding and positioning. in a mesh opening, one of the projections 46a, 46b abuts against a horizontal grid wire 25, whereby the beverage valve arrangement 16 is held to the side wall by the protruding flange 35 and said one projection clamping around the side wall. Conversely, the projections are detached from the grating wall in the insertion position of the male member 40 before being rotated into locking engagement with the female member 39. It should be further noted that in the position of the beverage valve arrangement attached to the side wall, the leg of the tubular member extends longitudinally of the row of cages and has a tubular member. such length that the arms 44a, 44b are located outside the bottom wall of the cage and may be connected to or connected to the drinking water line extending along the cages 10 in the row of cages. In FIG. 4a and 4b there is shown another embodiment of a drinking valve arrangement according to the invention, which, like the first embodiment, comprises a coupling element 117 and a sealing and detachably connected tubular element 115 in the form of essentially a T-piece. The coupling member 117 has a transverse portion 133 which has a substantially perpendicularly deflected latch 15C at its end surface which is provided with a drinking valve 118 having an upper inlet and a downwardly extending outlet and an associated protruding and downwardly extending pin 131 for dispensing at least one drop of liquid by light touch or lateral action. The transverse portion 133 comprises a first section 136 comprising the deflected latch 150 and a second section 137 which has such an outer contour that it can be passed through a mesh opening. The second section is separated from the first section 136 by a protruding flange 135 having a transverse dimension larger than a mesh aperture in the side wall 122. Upon insertion of the second section through a mesh aperture, the flange abuts against the inside 127 of the sidewall 122, thus preventing, that the first section is extended through the mesh opening. At its outer end, the second section 137 has a connecting means, e.g. an external thread (not shown) adapted to engage sealingly with a corresponding connector, such as an internal thread in the elongated body of the tubular member 115. The transverse portion 133 is provided with an inner not shown connecting channel connecting the valve 118 inlet with a coupling element inlet 138 located adjacent to the connecting means at the outer end of the second section 137. of the transverse section 133. The body of the tube element 141 has a closed upper end 151 and a radial tube element outlet opening 152. The tube element 115 is provided. body 141 has at its lower end arms 144a and 144b which are arranged to be connected to the drinking water line 110. The second embodiment of the drinking valve arrangement 116 is mounted by passing the second section 137 of the coupling element through a mesh opening and engaging the second section connecting element with the corresponding connecting element of the pipe element. If the connecting means is a thread, the coupling member 117 is rotated until its flange 135 abuts against the inside 127 of the sidewall 122 and the body 141 of the tube member 115 abuts the exterior 128 of the sidewall 122 and the actuating insert 131 of the drinking valve 118 faces down. FIG. 5a-5c show a third embodiment of a drinking valve arrangement 215, wherein a drinking valve 218 of the aforementioned type is arranged in a coupling element 217 which is connected to a central region of a clip 255 made of a resilient material, f. eg. spring steel. From the central region, two connecting arms 253a, 253b extend outwardly to form a blunt angle. Each connecting arm has at its outer end a V-shaped groove 254a, 254b which is configured to receive a grating wire. The arms are dimensioned and designed to be able to engage the grooves in vertical engagement with vertical grid wires 224, between which there are two vertical grid wires, as shown in Fig. 5c. To provide said retaining engagement, the arms 253a and 253b are compressed to receive the grid threads in the respective grooves and then allowed by springs outward for retaining engagement with the wires and thus the side wall 222. The arms are located in a plane perpendicular to the actuating pin 231 of the drinking valve 211. , which faces downward in the mounted state of the coupling part. Without going into detail, the coupling element 217 has an internal connecting channel (not shown) which connects the valve inlet with a coupling element inlet. As explained with reference to the previous embodiment, adjacent to the coupling element inlet is a connecting means adapted to seal tightly with a corresponding connecting means provided in connection with a pipe element outlet radially formed in the elongate body of the tube element 241. In this embodiment, the interconnecting means are suitably of the snap coupling type. The body member 241 of the tubular member is closed at its upper end and has at its lower end arms 241a, 241b extending outwardly in opposite directions and arranged to be connected to the drinking water conduit 210.
