CA 2203064

A sow farrowing station to reduce the mortality of piglets includes a slab, a surrounding crate to constrain the sow, the slab defining within a crate a floor transport region consisting of independent pressure sensitive members which travel over the region to transport piglets from beneath the sow, but when the sow itself steps onto one of the pressure sensitive transport members, that member stops its travel so that the sow does not have to continually "walk" yet, when the sow lays down all the transport members are arrested and the piglets can then move to nurse from the sow.

Un poste de mise bas porcin visant à réduire la mortalité des porcelets comprend une dalle entourée d'une cage pour assurer la contention de la truie, la dalle définissant à l'intérieur d'une cage une zone de plancher mobile constituée d'éléments indépendants sensibles à la pression qui se déplacent dans cette zone pour faire sortir les porcelets de sous la truie, mais quand la truie elle-même met la patte sur l'un des éléments de déplacement sensibles à la pression, cet élément cesse de se déplacer, de sorte que la truie n'a pas continuellement à "marcher", tandis que si la truie se couche, tous les éléments de déplacement sont immobilisés et les porcelets peuvent aller se mettre en place pour téter la truie.
