Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of measuring animal body size data, in particular to a sliding measuring rod for measuring the body size data of breeding pigs. Background Art

[0002] Animal taxonomists classify animals according to their various characteristics (morphology, cells, genetics, physiology, ecology and geographical distribution, etc.), and divide animals into 6 main levels, namely phylum, class, order, family, genus and species. Animals are also divided into wild and domesticated. When breeders raise animals, they need to measure the body size of animals at different production levels at different stages. In order to feed them better and scientifically, they often need to conduct comprehensive body measurements on them continuously and obtain relevant information in a timely manner. Body size is a method of sorting out and analyzing the physique of animal production, reflecting whether the various parts of the animal are fully developed, whether they are symmetrical and meet the characteristics of a certain production type and variety. By measuring the body size of animals at different stages, it can facilitate the feeding work of breeders and improve the survival rate of animals.

[0003] In recent years, as pig farms have become larger and more intensive, breeding of sows has gradually become standardized and popularized. Sow breeding requires directional selection of pig performance traits based on market demand, and the measurement requires data such as height, body length, tube circumference, abdominal circumference, and hip circumference.

[0004] Investigations and studies have found that the most commonly used tools for measuring pig height are tape measures and rulers. Although the corresponding measurement values ​​can be read, pigs are restless during the measurement. When using tape measures or rulers, inaccurate readings are inevitable due to shaking. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a sliding measuring rod for measuring the body size data of a breeding pig, which can more accurately measure the height data of the breeding pig and is convenient for measuring and reading the height and body length data of the breeding pig.

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0007] A sliding measuring rod for measuring the body size data of a breeding pig comprises a horizontal base and a ruler, wherein the ruler is fixed on the top of the horizontal base; a vertically arranged slide groove is arranged in the ruler, and a slider is installed in the slide groove; a horizontal rod moving groove connected to the slide groove and arranged vertically is arranged on the ruler wall on one side of the ruler, and a height scale is arranged on the ruler on this side; a horizontal rod is fixed on the slider, one end of the horizontal rod is fixedly connected to the slider, and the other end extends out of the horizontal rod moving groove, and when the slider moves up and down in the slide groove, the horizontal rod also moves up and down in the horizontal rod moving groove following the slider.

[0008] The ruler wall of the ruler is also provided with a threaded shaft sliding groove connected to the sliding groove and vertically arranged. A threaded shaft is fixed on the slider. One end of the threaded shaft is fixed to the slider, and the other end extends out of the threaded shaft sliding groove. When the slider moves up and down in the sliding groove, the threaded shaft also moves up and down in the threaded shaft sliding groove with the slider. An adjusting nut is threadedly connected to the threaded shaft at the outer end of the threaded shaft sliding groove. Tightening the adjusting nut can fix the slider in the sliding groove.

[0009] The slide is a square slide, the slider is a square slide matched with the slide, the slider and the slide are matched with each other, and the slider can move up and down in the slide. This arrangement can ensure that the horizontal rod is not easy to shake, and the measured value is more accurate.

[0010] The horizontal rod is a square horizontal rod, on which a matching sliding sleeve is mounted, the sliding sleeve can move on the square horizontal rod, a vertical rod is fixed at the bottom of the sliding sleeve, and a length scale is arranged on the square horizontal rod.

[0011] The length scale is arranged in a concave shape on the horizontal rod to prevent the length scale from being worn away when the sliding sleeve moves on the horizontal rod.

[0012] The advantages of the sliding measuring rod for body size data of this breed of pigs are as follows.

[0013] 1. The sliding measuring rod for measuring the body size of this type of pig is to place the horizontal base on the ground, and the ruler is fixed on the top of the horizontal base; a vertically set slide is set in the ruler, and a slider is installed in the slide; a horizontal rod moving groove connected to the slide and set vertically is set on the ruler wall on one side of the ruler, and a height scale is set on the ruler on this side; a horizontal rod is fixed on the slider, one end of the horizontal rod is fixedly connected to the slider, and the other end extends out of the horizontal rod moving groove. When the slider moves up and down in the slide, the horizontal rod also moves up and down in the horizontal rod moving groove with the slider. The horizontal rod is at a right angle to the ruler. By moving the horizontal rod up and down, the lower end of the horizontal rod produces a reading on the height scale, and the height of different pigs can be measured. The right-angle reading generated by the horizontal rod and the ruler can reduce the height error to within 0.3cm, solving the problem of inaccurate readings when measuring the height of pigs due to pig shaking and line of sight errors when people read.

[0014] 2. The horizontal rod of the sliding measuring rod for the body size data of this breeding pig is a square horizontal rod, on which a matching sliding sleeve is mounted. The sliding sleeve can move on the square horizontal rod, and a vertical rod is fixed at the bottom of the sliding sleeve. A length scale is set on the square horizontal rod. The length and body width of the breeding pig can be measured through the right-angle readings generated by the horizontal rod and the vertical rod.

[0015] 3. The slide groove is a square slide groove, and the slider is a square slide groove matching the slide groove. The slider and the slide groove have a clearance, and the slider can move up and down in the slide groove. This setting can ensure that the horizontal rod is not easy to shake, and the measured value is more accurate.

[0016] 4. The length scale is set in a concave shape on the horizontal rod to prevent the length scale from being worn away when the sliding sleeve moves on the horizontal rod, so that the sliding measuring rod for the body size data of this breed of pigs can be used for a long time.
