At this time, the heat exchanger 150 The air passing through is passed through a wide passage provided so that the heat dissipation fins 152 of both the thermoelectric element blocks 151 face each other, thereby maximizing the heat transfer area, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency to quickly bring the interior of the body 110 to a constant temperature. Can be maintained as.

Meanwhile, when the temperature is controlled as described above, the cooling duct 160 is closed by the cooling damper 161, and the discharge duct 130 is opened by the discharge damper 131, so the air inside the main body 110 Is sucked into the exhaust duct 130 by the exhaust fan 132, and the air is supplied into the main body 110 through the side of the main body 110 through the heat exchanger 150 through the circulation duct 140 again. , The heat-exchanged air supplied into the main body 110 passes through the tray 200 by the circulation fan 120 and is circulated to the central portion of the main body 110.

And, when the temperature inside the main body 110 is overheated above the set temperature during such temperature control, the discharge damper 131 closes the discharge duct 130 and the cooling damper 161 rotates to rotate the cooling duct 160 Is opened.

As a result, low-temperature outdoor air is sucked into the cooling duct 160 by the exhaust fan 132 and introduced into the circulation duct 140, and the outdoor air introduced into the circulation duct 140 passes through the heat exchanger 150 and is It is cooled to a temperature and supplied into the main body 110 so that the inside of the main body 110 can be quickly maintained at a constant temperature.

In addition, the heat-exchanged low-temperature air supplied to the side of the main body 110 as described above is moved to the inner and lower portions of the main body 110 by convection, thereby pushing the relatively warm high-temperature air to the top of the main body 110. By moving it, the air is circulated quickly.

In this process, the low-temperature air supplied to the side of the main body 110 by the circulation fan 120 passes between the support frames 250 of the tray 200 positioned as shown in FIG. 5 or 6, and the main body 110 ), it is possible to quickly maintain the inside at a set temperature by evenly and evenly cooling the inside of the main body 110 in a wide accommodation space.

In addition, the tray 200 accommodated in the main body 110 is operated by the egg turning device 180 every set predetermined time to rotate the rotating frame 220 and the supporting frame 250 in the tray 200 to rotate the fertilized eggs. do.

That is, the rotating device 180 in the initial state is provided with a rotation link 184 positioned orthogonal to the fixing bracket 181 as shown in the lower drawing of FIG. 7, and thus the rotation frame 220 of the tray 200 And the supporting frame 250 is positioned parallel to the frame frame 210 as shown in FIG. 9, so that the fertilized egg seated on the supporting frame 250 is provided in parallel with the frame frame 210.

When the turning device 180 is operated in this state, as shown in the upper or middle drawing of FIG. 7, as the rod 186 enters and exits from the cylinder 185, the rotation link 184 is hinged on the fixing bracket 181 ( 184a) is rotated in a counterclockwise or clockwise direction, and accordingly, the moving link 182 moves forward or backward.

Then, by the movement of the moving link 182, the coupling shaft 233 rotates forward or reverse, and at the same time, the rotation shaft 230 is idle in a state constrained to the lower portion of the frame frame 210, and the rotation shaft 230 is idle. By this, the rotation frame 220 is rotated as shown in FIG. 10 or 11, and the support frame 250 provided therein is also rotated like the rotation frame 220 so that the frame frame 210 is inclined at a certain angle. In this case, the egg turning operation is repeated every predetermined time.

Accordingly, the fertilized eggs seated on the support frame 250 are rotated every predetermined time to promote hatching, and fresh air heat-exchanged while circulating to maintain the room temperature is supplied to the side of the main body 110 by convection. ) During the process of moving to the inner and lower sides of the tray 200, it is possible to pass directly between the support frames 250 inclined as shown on the left side of FIG. 6, and in the state of the right side of FIG. 6, the main body 110 The heat exchanged air moving from the inner lower part to the central part passes through each inclined support frame 250 and cools the inside of the fertilized egg and the main body 110 uniformly, thereby quickly bringing the inside of the main body 110 to a set temperature suitable for hatching of the fertilized egg. You will be able to keep it.

Although the present invention has been described in detail through specific examples, this is for explaining the present invention in detail, and the present invention is not limited thereto, and within the technical idea of the present invention, those skilled in the art It is clear that the transformation or improvement is possible.

All simple modifications to changes of the present invention belong to the scope of the present invention, and the specific scope of protection of the present invention will be made clear by the appended claims.
