<p>[PROBLEMS] A system for alarming trouble with egg collection quickly and monitoring smooth collection of chicken eggs without relying upon an existing egg collection system is needed in a multi-cage system. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] An egg passage sensor system in which an egg collection conveyor is provided with an egg passage sensor, a warning means interlocked with the egg passage sensor is provided, the egg passage sensor monitors passage of chicken eggs at a time interval preset by the egg passage sensor, and, when a judgment is made that passage of chicken eggs has stopped by the monitoring, the warning means warning the stopped passage of chicken eggs operates to notify the trouble with egg collection quickly. Trouble with egg collection can be checked as finely as ensured by the number of egg passage sensors, and the system is safe because of independent operation. Unlike an integral system, operational environment does not become heavy even if a large number of systems are utilized.</p> |
