Collection method of automatic collection device for hairs of wild animals

Abstract

The invention provides a collection method of an automatic collection device for hairs of wild animals. The collection method comprises the following steps: detecting whether an object enters a preset collection area at a preset time interval by an infrared sensor, and when detecting the object, driving a steering-engine arm wheel to rotate by a first signal outputted by a single chip microcomputer, so as to drive the steering-engine arm to move and press down one end of a fixed block, and enabling a convex part on the other end of the fixed block to raise from a groove in a fixed rod, so as to release the fixed rod and further release the fixed block; ejecting a collection head by elasticity of a spring during resetting; after the preset time interval, driving a brushless motor to rotate by a second signal outputted by the single chip microcomputer and drive a winding shaft of a steel-wire-rope winding drum to rotate, so as to wind a steel wire rope into the steel-wire-rope winding drum and take back the collection head. The collection method provided by the invention has the advantages that automatic collection on the hairs of the wild animals can be realized, baits are not needed, and the application range is wide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to collection technology, in particular to a collection method of a wild animal hair automatic collection device. Background technique [0002] Wild animal hair contains important genetic information and is the carrier of important genetic information, so it has always been the main research object of biologists. [0003] The original collection method is to use barbed wire to enclose a small area, lay bait in it to lure wild animals, and scrape and tear off the hair of wild animals when they pass by. [0004] At present, researchers often use the method of arranging collection devices in advance at fixed locations, such as arranging barbed wire loops near water areas to collect hair from animals when they pass by; When biting a tree trunk, control the robotic arm to collect its hair; and so on. [0005] However, these existing technologies for collecting wild animal hair usually require baits, which need to be replaced regularl...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, these existing technologies for collecting wild animal hair usually require bait, which requires regular replacement of bait, which is time-consuming and laborious; moreover, bait can only be aimed at a single type of animal and has a narrow scope of application

In addition, the staff cannot guarantee that only one type of hair will be collected by the recovered collection device. If multiple collections occur during the period (multiple animals pass by), it is possible to collect the hairs of multiple animals, which is difficult to distinguish; moreover, multiple collections It will also damage the previously collected samples and affect the research results

In addition, the use of wire barbs or mechanical arms can easily harm wild animals
