The acquisition mode avoids the phenomenon of repeated acquisition, avoids the processing equipment from recognizing and processing redundant content, and improves the processing efficiency. In a modern henhouse, coop equipment is in a large scale, each partition cage is consistent in size, a plurality of rows of partition cages which are overlapped are arranged, one row or two rows or a plurality of rows of partition cages can be used as one picture when the image is collected by the collecting equipment, and other collection modes can be selected.
The processing equipment identifies and analyzes the pictures collected each time, and the specific mode of visually displaying the egg yield of the laying hens with each serial number partition cage is as follows: the processing equipment classifies all received pictures according to the acquisition time, all pictures with continuous acquisition time are placed in a folder, one folder represents a time period, the partition cage number and the number of corresponding eggs on each picture in the folder are identified and recorded according to the sequence of the acquisition time, an intuitive table or an intuitive graph is formed by the partition cage number and the number of the eggs in the time period, and the partition cage number and the number of the eggs in each time period are displayed in the intuitive table or the intuitive graph. The processing device can be a terminal device, can be processed manually during recognition and analysis, and can also be processed by a program algorithm. If the images are transmitted to the processing equipment after being collected every time, a folder is directly established on the processing equipment according to a time period, all the images collected in the time period are placed in the folder, the numbers of the partition cages and the number of the eggs on each image are identified and recorded at the same time, the numbers of all the partition cages and the number of the eggs are identified and recorded, and finally, the numbers are counted into visual images such as a classification table, a curve graph or a pie chart. If the images are collected for multiple times and then transmitted to processing equipment, all the icons are firstly divided into different folders according to the sequence of the collection time, the collection time of each time is continuous, the images are classified according to the continuous collection time of each time, all the images collected in different time periods are distinguished, all the partition cage numbers and the corresponding egg numbers of all the time periods are identified and recorded, and finally, the statistics and the visual display are carried out. If embodied in the form of a table, each row of the table represents a partition cage number and each column of the table represents the number of eggs in a different time period. If embodied in a graph, the abscissa represents the partition cage number and the ordinate represents the number of eggs in different time periods. There are other forms of visual diagrams or visual tables. Accurately obtaining the economic benefit ratio of the caged laying hens.
The specific mode of independently judging the state of each laying hen in the partition cage aiming at the screened partition cage is as follows: for each screened partition cage, observing whether the comb of each laying hen in each partition cage is low and whether the face color is pale, if so, directly judging that the laying hen is an empty laying hen, otherwise, measuring the distance between two pubic bones of the laying hen in the partition cage by using a ruler, and if the distance is smaller than two fingers, judging that the laying hen is an empty laying hen; otherwise, the layer chicken continues to observe. The aim of accurately identifying the empty laying chicken is fulfilled.
When the processing equipment identifies the number of each partition cage and the number of corresponding eggs, the processing equipment can also identify the state of laying hens in the partition cage and is used for judging sick chickens or dead chickens in the partition cage. The collecting device is provided with a rotatable thermal infrared imager for identifying the body temperature of the laying hens, and if the body temperature deviates from the normal body temperature, an alarm is sent to the partition cage for ensuring the healthy environment of cage-rearing laying hens and avoiding disease infection among the laying hens.
The acquisition equipment can be manually used and can also be driven by mobile equipment. One configuration of the mobile device is: the mobile equipment comprises a telescopic supporting underframe, an automatic telescopic rod body and a reversing driving mechanism, wherein the fixed end of the automatic telescopic rod body is hinged to the top end of the telescopic supporting underframe, the other end of the automatic telescopic rod body extends along the long-distance direction of the coop equipment, and the retraction of the automatic telescopic rod body is set to stop for a preset time every time when the automatic telescopic rod body retracts for enabling the acquisition equipment to acquire; the reversing driving mechanism is fixed at the side end of the telescopic supporting underframe and drives the automatic telescopic rod body to switch between the horizontal direction and the vertical direction; the free end of the automatic telescopic rod body is connected with the collecting equipment, and the collecting equipment is provided with a base for adjusting the pitching angle and is used for adjusting the shooting angle of the collecting equipment. The automatic telescopic rod body extends to two rows of relative coop devices, the collection is started from the initial position, the automatic telescopic rod body moves along with the movement of the automatic telescopic rod body, and when the automatic telescopic rod body stops, the collection device shoots and collects the chicken coop devices. After the collection is completed, if the automatic telescopic cross rod has a transverse influence, the reversing driving mechanism is used for driving the automatic telescopic rod body to be upwards placed, and the influence is avoided. The telescopic supporting underframe can be adjusted in height, and the bottom end of the telescopic supporting underframe can be provided with a movable wheel, so that the telescopic supporting underframe can be conveniently moved.
