[0002] At present, with the continuous development and progress of technology, the weighing of livestock in animal husbandry farms is usually completed by intelligent track robots. This robot contains a weight measurement module. When the robot moves along the I-shaped track, the weight measurement module maps the shape of the livestock in a bird's-eye view, and estimates the weight of the corresponding livestock according to the background algorithm, thereby completing the weighing of the livestock.

[0003] However, due to the harsh environment of livestock farms and the high dust content, dust and feed often fall into the patrol tracks, resulting in accumulation of long I-tracks, which hinders the movement of the track robot and makes it difficult to complete the subsequent livestock collection work. In the prior art, manual cleaning of the I-tracks or changing tires of different diameters is usually adopted to ensure the normal weighing operation, but the frequency and cost of manual cleaning are high, and changing tires of different diameters requires changing part of the track robot structure, which is a relatively complicated process and cannot quickly and stably change tires, resulting in low weighing efficiency and affecting the normal operation cycle.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a livestock mobile weight measurement system, including a depth camera 1, an image processing device 2, a motion mechanism 3, a wireless transceiver, and a tire replacement structure based on different diameters, which is used to realize the mobile weight measurement of livestock through the cooperation of the depth camera 1, the image processing device 2 and the motion mechanism 3, and at the same time realize the remote control and data transmission between the robot and the external control center with the help of the wireless transceiver.

The specific settings are as follows:

[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the depth camera 1 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the image processing device 2, and the depth camera 1 and the image processing device 2 are connected via a circuit, the motion mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the image processing device 2, and the motion mechanism 3 is movably mounted on the load track 8 based on a predetermined extended travel route, so as to synchronously drive the depth camera 1 and the image processing device 2 to move along the load track 8 with the help of the motion mechanism 3, so that the depth camera 1 can movably map the shape of the livestock in a top-down form, and send the acquired livestock shape image to the image processing device 2 via the circuit, and the image processing device 2 performs image data conversion processing.

[0047] The wireless transceiver is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the image processing device 2, and the wireless transceiver is connected to the image processing device 2 through a circuit, so as to establish a remote communication connection between the wireless transceiver and the external background, so that the image data converted and processed by the image processing device 2 can be sent to the external background in real time, and then the weight of the corresponding livestock can be estimated according to the background algorithm.

[0048] Specifically, if Figure 2 As shown, the motion mechanism 3 includes a limit frame 31, a drive motor 32 and a drive wheel body 33; wherein the limit frame 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the image processing device 2, and the drive motor 32 has a fixed end and a free end, the fixed end is detachably fixed to the outer wall of the limit frame 31, and the free end is connected to the drive wheel body 33 transmission assembly to drive the drive wheel body 33 to rotate with the help of the drive motor 32, so that the motion mechanism 3 drives the depth camera 1 and the image processing device 2 to move along the load track 8 to map and obtain the livestock morphology.

[0049] Preferably, the driving motor 32 is connected to the wireless transceiver via a circuit, so that after establishing a remote communication connection between the wireless transceiver and the external background, the start and stop of the driving motor 32 can be controlled by remote control, thereby remotely controlling the overall movement work and improving the degree of automation.

[0050] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 , the tire replacement structure based on different diameters includes an installation axle 4, an obstacle-crossing wheel body 5, an eccentric bearing seat 6 and a bearing 7; wherein the installation axle 4 is rotatably assembled on the limiting frame 31, the obstacle-crossing wheel body 5 is transmission-assembled on the installation axle 4, and the obstacle-crossing wheel body 5 and the driving wheel body 33 are both located on the inner side of the limiting frame 31, the eccentric bearing seat 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the limiting frame 31 on one side away from the driving motor 32, the bearing 7 is assembled in the eccentric bearing seat 6, the installation axle 4 extends to the outside of the outer wall of the limiting frame 31 on one side away from the driving motor 32, and the installation axle 4 is assembled and connected with the bearing 7 to position the installation axle 4 through the eccentric bearing 7, so that the height of the installation axle 4 compared to the load track 8 can be adjusted by changing the installation direction of the eccentric bearing seat 6, and then the installation axle 4 can adapt to obstacle-crossing wheel bodies 5 of different diameters, that is, the installation of tires of different diameters can be effectively completed only by changing the installation direction of the eccentric bearing seat 6.

[0051] Optionally, by switching the installation direction of the eccentric bearing seat 6 up and down and then installing it, the use of two obstacle-crossing wheel bodies 5 with the largest difference in diameter can be met.

[0052] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, the eccentric bearing seat 6 includes a positioning and mounting portion 61 and an eccentric assembly portion 62 which are fixedly connected to each other; wherein, the positioning and mounting portion 61 is provided with at least two positioning holes 611, which are used for detachably fixing the wheel axle 4 according to the required height of the wheel axle 4 by means of screws and other assembly parts between the positioning hole 611 and the limit frame 31; the eccentric assembly portion 62 is provided with an eccentric hole 621, and the bearing 7 is assembled in the eccentric hole 621 to form an eccentric bearing 7, and the height of the eccentric bearing 7 can be changed by changing the installation direction of the eccentric bearing seat 6, thereby changing the height of the installation wheel axle 4 as the center of the obstacle wheel body 5, ensuring that the installation diameter of the obstacle wheel body 5 is changed under the condition that the depth camera 1 maintains the same height, thereby improving the obstacle crossing ability of the wheel body on the load track 8.

[0053] like Figure 5 As shown, the depth camera 1 is communicatively connected to the embedded APP unit in the image processing device 2, and a cloud server is configured between the embedded APP unit and the platform client via a network to effectively transmit the information obtained by the depth camera 1 to the platform client.

[0054] The application method of the livestock mobile weighing system in this embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0055] The motion mechanism 3 is movably mounted on the load track 8, and the motion mechanism 3 and the depth camera 1 are started by a remote control signal, so that the depth camera 1 moves synchronously with the motion mechanism 3 along the load track 8 and maps and obtains the livestock shape. The depth camera 1 transmits the obtained livestock shape to the image processing device 2. The image processing device 2 sends the signal to the cloud server through the network after data conversion. The cloud server further transmits the information to the platform client after algorithm calculation, and the platform client displays the livestock weight.

[0056] When dust is deposited on the load track 8 and affects the normal movement of the motion mechanism 3, the installation direction of the eccentric bearing seat 6 is disassembled and changed to change the height of the bearing 7. At this time, the height of the center of the wheel axle 4 installed as the obstacle-crossing wheel body 5 changes synchronously with the height of the bearing 7 compared to the load track 8. Then, while ensuring that the depth camera 1 maintains the same height, the wheel axle 4 is installed to adapt to the obstacle-crossing wheel body 5 with a larger diameter, thereby improving the obstacle-crossing ability of the wheel body on the load track 8.

[0057] Although the present invention has been described in detail above by general description and specific embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements can be made to the present invention. Therefore, these modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention all belong to the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
