摘要:
A motorized feeding vehicle for an animal farming system, said animal farmingsystemcomprising a field having a building accommodating a plurality of cages, eachcageadapted for accommodating one or more animals, preferably a furred animal,mostpreferably a mink, said motorized feeding vehicle comprising:a power system for driving said motorized feeding vehicle,a steering system for determining a direction of said motorized feedingvehicle,a user operated movement control system for manually controlling saidpower system and said steering system,a satellite navigation system receiver for generating a first set ofparameters constituting location information from a satellite navigationsystem,a proximity sensor for generating a second set of parameters constitutingspatial information of an area adjacent said motorized feeding vehicle,an internal position sensor comprising a direction sensor and a velocitysensor for generating a third set of parameters constituting motioninformation,an animal feeding system comprising a feed storage tank for storinganimal feed and a feeding pipe for conveying said animal feed from said feedstoragetank to said cages individually, said animal feeding system further comprisingafeeding control system for controlled feeding or non-feeding said animals viasaidanimal feeding system based on a fourth set of parameters constituting feedingparameters, and,a control unit connected to said satellite navigation system for receivingsaid first set of parameters, to said proximity sensor for receiving saidsecond set ofparameters and to said internal position sensor for receiving said third setofparameters, said control unit defining:a first mode constituting a learn mode in which said user iscontrolling said motorized feeding vehicle via said user movement controlsystem and said user feeding control system and said control unitcontinuously recording data representing said first
