Arduino Automatic Chicken Coop Door

thingiverse

This is Arduino automatic chicken coop door project. It works by opening and closing the chicken coop at a scheduled time to keep the chickens safe at night. YouTube video https://youtu.be/wA41INhYDWQ Parts I used: 1x Arduino Nano 1x 12v 5A power supply (110mm x 80mm x 35mm).5A is probably to much so 2A power supply should work as well (My actuator uses max 1.5A). 1x Real-Time Clock Module (DS3231) 2x Relay module.I used those https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/32909882481.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.13b87282eUdcTK&algo_pvid=dc7d0e17-5a6d-43dc-afdd-a59ea1219c30&algo_expid=dc7d0e17-5a6d-43dc-afdd-a59ea1219c30-2&btsid=0b0a187b15966948127254604e4a32&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_,searchweb201603_ 1x 12V Actuator (I used this one https://www.elektrobim.pl/sklep/silownik-elektryczny-super-power-jack-mini-12v/?attribute_pa_maksymalny-wysuw=harl1206-15-cm&dTribesID=f05ca3ff0ce47eacdea3b64b72ba584d%7Cadtribes%7C254354&utm_source=Google%20Shopping&utm_campaign=Google%20Merchant%20B&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=254354&gclid=CjwKCAjwsan5BRAOEiwALzomX8EV-lF_khbAD8QrT8ya8AShBeDV4eWin5nvwz8bzQMSRgCUAHsCrhoCUB4QAvD_BwE ) but I am pretty sure that actuators from aliexpress will work as well. 1x 12v to 5v Buck Converter MP1584 Arduino sketch int Relay = 4; int Relay2 = 5; DS3231 rtc(A4, A5); Time t; const int OnHour = 13; const int OnMin = 40; const int OffHour = 13; const int OffMin = 41; const int OnHour2 = 13; const int OnMin2 = 42; const int OffHour2 = 13; const int OffMin2 = 43; void setup() { Serial.begin(115200);//Optional rtc.begin(); pinMode(Relay, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(Relay, HIGH); pinMode(Relay2, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(Relay2, HIGH); } void loop() { t = rtc.getTime(); Serial.print(t.hour);//Optional Serial.print(" hour(s), ");//Optional Serial.print(t.min);//Optional Serial.print(" minute(s)");//Optional Serial.println(" ");//Optional delay (1000); if(t.hour == OnHour && t.min == OnMin){ digitalWrite(Relay,LOW); Serial.println("LIGHT ON");//Optional } else if(t.hour == OffHour && t.min == OffMin){ digitalWrite(Relay,HIGH); Serial.println("LIGHT OFF");//Optional } if(t.hour == OnHour2 && t.min == OnMin2){ digitalWrite(Relay2,LOW); Serial.println("LIGHT ON2");//Optional } else if(t.hour == OffHour2 && t.min == OffMin2){ digitalWrite(Relay2,HIGH); Serial.println("LIGHT OFF2");//Optional } } If you have any questions basementcreationsemail@gmail.com https://cults3d.com/en/users/BasementCreations/creations
