UNMANNED SELF-PROPELLED WATERING SYSTEM FOR FLOOR HOUSING OF POULTRY Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC A01K39/24 

FIELD: poultry farming.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to poultry farming, namely to devices for drinking in group outdoor poultry keeping. Unmanned self-propelled system for watering agricultural poultry includes a water tank connected to a supply line consisting of pipes with nipple drinkers, a tube for supplying water to the water tank, a water level sensor. The system has a box-shaped body mounted on caterpillar chassis, inside of which there is a controller, a control unit and indicators of the water level in the tank and the system status connected to it, which are mounted in the body wall. The system also contains a GPS tracker, a trajectory sensor located under the body, and proximity sensors located along the perimeter of the body. A reservoir with water is installed on the body, the lower part of which is connected to the supply line, made in the form of sections located on four sides of the reservoir. In each section, the pipe is made of internal and external parts pivotally connected to each other. At the same time, nipple drinkers are located on the outer part of the pipe, and the end of the inner part of the pipe is pivotally connected to the body. To transfer the section from the transport position to the working position and back, a hydraulic actuator is installed between the inner and outer parts of the pipe, and the hinge connecting these parts of the pipe is connected by means of a cable to the upper part of the water tank.

EFFECT: increasing the efficiency and quality of drinking, as well as reducing labor costs.
