- the orifices 1 6 allow the evacuation of manure palmipeds under the passage of palmipeds and by gravity.
- the diameter of the orifices is small enough to avoid any risk of injury to waterfowl and sufficient to allow the evacuation of manure by gravity. Thus, their diameter will not exceed 20 mm, preferably it is of the order of 1 6 mm.
- the length L d of the plate depends essentially on the dimensions of the cage to be equipped and in particular on its width l p . In general, the length of the plate 13 will vary between 70 cm and 1 cm.
- the plate 1 3 is rotatable about an axis 1 January.
- This axis 1 1 is in the form of a rod, whose length is greater than that L d of the plate 1 3.

- the thickness of a plate according to the invention is preferably between 0.05 millimeters (ie 0.5 / 10ths of a millimeter) and 5 millimeters (ie 50 / 10ths of a millimeter). More preferably, the thickness of a plate is between 0.5 millimeters (5/10 th of a millimeter) and 1 millimeters (10/10 th of a millimeter).
- the modular device remains in place under its own weight.
- the modular device may also be held in place by at least one torsion spring disposed on at least one end of the axis of rotation 1 1 and at least one turn surrounding said end.
- Such a torsion spring prevents the palmipeds raise the plate with their legs.
- FIG. 2 illustrates the modular device disposed on the floor grid 24 of a collective cage
- Figure 4 schematizes a collective cage comprising two housings facing one another and separated one of the other by their rear wall 26, each housing being equipped with the modular device 10 according to the invention.
- the collective cage comprises, between each rear wall 26, a trough 25 common to the two housing.
- the modular device is advantageously located at a distance from the front walls 23 and rear 26 such that it can be completely returned, pivoting 180 ° about its axis of batching 1 1, in order to be cleaned properly.
- the modular device is placed on the floor 24 at a distance from the waterer 25 such that the waterfowl can put their legs on the device while they drink and thus rest properly without having to go down / leave the device.
- this distance will be of the order of 20 cm.
- the direction of rotation for cleaning is in any case towards the waterer 25.
- the device 10 is placed in such a way that the axis of rotation 1 1 and the hinge-holding means 12 are arranged facing the waterer 25.
- the plate pivots in the direction of the rear wall 26, as shown diagrammatically by the arrow in Figure 4, to an area of the cage where the height H is the largest, in order to have a device having a width sufficient for palmipeds.
- this space will be sufficient space between the modular device and the walls of the cage to allow the droppings to flow through the gate of the floor 24 and prevent them from being trapped in the cage.
- this space must be greater than or equal to 10 cm between the side wall watering and 5 to 6 cm between side walls and modular device.
- the modular device described form a comfortable floor for palmipeds that can rest without risk of injury, especially when they drink. Their stress is thus reduced.
- the device can be turned completely around its axis of rotation, its cleaning duplex is facilitated.
- the inclined edge 15 not only stiffens the plate 13 but also has the advantage of raising it from the floor 24. It then allows the animals to feel the sensation of being perched and to avoid that they mount on top of each other and avoid any contact with the existing floor 24.
- FIGS. 6, 7 and 8 Another advantageous embodiment illustrated in Figures 5 to 8, is proposed in the following with two modular devices arranged in a housing (cage).
- several modular devices 10 are installed in a housing.
- the modular devices are preferably arranged in front of each other with respect to the front and rear walls 23 of the collective cage, as shown in FIGS. 6, 7 and 8.
- a first 10.1 and a second modular device 10.2 are positioned on the floor grid 24 of the collective cage, the second device being located in front of the first relative to the front walls 23 and rear 26 of said cage.
- Each modular device comprises a plate 13.1; 13.2 and an axis of rotation 1 1 in the form of a rod and around which the plate is movable in rotation.
- the plate of each modular device is attached to its own axis of rotation 1 1 by a longitudinal edge.
- the plates 13.1 and 13.2 of two adjacent modular devices are advantageously positioned in the continuity of one another, so as to form a support surface of the corresponding waterfowl to the sum of the individual surfaces of each of the two plates.
- the lateral edges of the two plates are located in the extension of each other, and the axes of rotation 1 1 of the two plates are parallel to each other.
- the waterfowl can circulate from one plate to another without coming into contact with the floor grid 24 of the collective cage, and without risk of injury due in particular to the contact of the legs of the waterfowl on the grid or due to legs stuck in the openings of the floor grid of the collective cage.
- the plates 13.1 and 13.2 of the two neighboring modular devices are simultaneously returned, especially during the cleaning of the latter, said plates are advantageously positioned in continuity with one another so as to form a area corresponding to the sum of the individual surfaces of each of the two plates.
- the lateral edges of the two plates are located in the extension of each other, and the axes of rotation 1 1 of the two plates are parallel to each other.
- the first plate 13.1 advantageously comprises an overlapping zone 17 with the second plate 13.2, above the axis of rotation 1 1 or rod on which is fixed said second plate. The overlap is visible when the first plate bears on the second plate ( Figure 7).
- the second plate 13.2 may be stiffened along its length by a fold as shown in FIG. 1, so that said plate has an inclined edge 15 opposite to the axis of rotation, the angle of inclination of which is preferably less than 30 °.
- the combination of the overlap 17 of the first plate and the inclined edge of the second plate allows said plates to form a flat bearing surface allowing the palmipeds to maintain a good balance when they bear against said plates.
- the second plate 13.2 may be regular.
- the absence of an inclined edge makes it possible to form a slope so that the palmipeds are in a position slightly inclined towards the front wall 23 of the cage. This configuration can be advantageous for carrying out operations requiring that the head of the webs be in the vicinity of the front wall, especially during force-feeding.
- the corners of the second plate 13.2 are truncated, the truncated portion 18 joining the lateral and longitudinal edges of said plate. This feature prevents the accumulation of manure palmipeds in the corners of the cage, especially in the corners of a compartment of the cage.
- the dimensions of the device may vary from one device to another to form a floor surface partially or totally inclined.
- the axes of rotation 1 1 of the two devices may have the same or different diameter.
- the plates 13.1; 13.2 of the two devices have a thickness preferably identical.
- the modular device advantageously comprises a removable fastening system corresponding to the embodiment variant described above.
- the system is in the form of a clip 19 which is positioned at the ends of the rods 1 1 of the plates.

- the fastening system has several curvatures along its length.
- the system 19 comprises, including a first curvature and a de19.1, and a second curvature 19.2 for receiving the rod 1 1 of a plate 13.1 and 13.2 (not visible in this figure) and several other curvatures 19.3 intended to accommodate the son 26 (rods) of the floor parallel to the width l p of the collective cage or the length L d of the plate of the modular device.
- the user inserts the clip from outside the collective cage, so that the son of the floor or the a lateral face of the collective cage, and the end of the rod of the plate are positioned respectively in the first and second curvatures of the clip. Then the user slides the clip outwardly of the collective cage until it abuts against the side wall of said collective cage. Once in place, the clip allows to maintain in fixed position one or more plates, said plates are in the position of use or in the inverted position.
- the bends are advantageously surround the son of the floor of the collective cage from below, so that said bends abut against said floor son, thus preventing the plate from moving.
- the bends are advantageously surround the rods of the axes of rotation of the plates from above, thus capping said rods, so that the friction generated by the contact between the curvatures and the rods contribute to prevent the plate from moving.
- the fastening system may comprise a variable number of curvatures depending on the number of rods to be fixed.
- the clip allows to maintain in fixed position only a portion of the plates positioned in the collective cage, so that the remaining devices retain their mobility.
- curvatures that indifferently cover the rods and / or the son of the floor of the collective cage from above, from below, or from the side.
- the fastening system is positioned in support against the side wall of the collective cage, so that the bends are surrounding the rods of the plates and the warp or weft son of the side wall of the cage.
- the modular device according to the invention fits on any existing collective cage regardless of the containment system, such as those sold under the names "Labadie”, “palmistar”, “L640”, “palmizen” “,” Aquaduck “, or” La Guitoune "for example.
- the modular devices installed in several juxtaposed cages can be independent as on the plan but especially dependent on each other and allow a saving of time for the turnaround at the time of cleaning.
- the devices are juxtaposed to each other and are connected by the same rod forming the axis 1 1 which has a length of several meters and up to about half of the feeding room.
- the rod 1 1 may be equipped at one end of a handle allowing an operator to perform the reversal of all devices attached to said rod.
- the waterfowl can rest by placing the two legs on the plate 13 (or plates), and feel a well being, without stress or risk of injury. Thus, they can drink quietly, the legs resting on the plate in comfort.
- the comfort of the animals has been improved and the number of injuries is considerably reduced thanks to this modular device.
- the welfare state of the animals is thus improved.
- the reversibility of the plate around its axis of rotation allows to clean perfectly with great ease.
