[0053] S210 - S230: Steps Detailed implementation manners

[0054] The structural principle and working principle of the present invention will be specifically described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0055] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is directed to a device for remotely controlling the heating of livestock drinking water during grassland grazing and a system capable of real-time information perception, quantitative decision-making, and data analysis, so as to achieve welfare-oriented livestock breeding.

[0056] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a livestock breeding drinking water control system 100 based on cloud service decision-making, including a positioning detection module 110, a cloud service decision-making platform 120, and an intelligent heating drinking water module 130. Among them, the positioning detection module 110 includes a plurality of collars 111, and the intelligent heating drinking water module 130 includes a plurality of intelligent heating drinking water devices 131.

[0057] The positioning detection module 110 includes a plurality of collars 111 disposed on livestock for real-time acquisition of the position information of the livestock. The structure of the collar 111 is shown in Figure 3 As shown, the collar 111 includes a positioning module 111a, a solar charging panel 111b, and a collar strap 111c. Among them, the positioning module 111a and the solar charging panel 111b are disposed on the collar strap 111c, and the collar strap 111c is, for example, hung on the neck of the livestock; through the positioning module 111a on the collar 111, accurate positioning of the livestock herd and individual livestock is achieved to real-time acquire the position information of the livestock, and the data of the position information can be transmitted to the cloud service decision-making platform through the ground mobile operator base station. In addition, the positioning module 111a, for example, interacts with the Beidou satellite system data to real-time and accurately acquire the position information of the corresponding livestock.

[0058] In the embodiment of the present invention, the cloud service decision-making platform 120 serves as the core of remote control and decision-making, receives and processes the position information of the livestock, and analyzes and processes the data information to achieve the function of controlling the intelligent heating drinking water module. Specifically, the cloud service decision-making platform 120 analyzes the migration law of the livestock according to the acquired position information of the livestock and adopts a decision-making method based on the decision tree algorithm, and according to the migration law of the livestock, the cloud service decision-making platform 120 controls the number of intelligent heating drinking water devices 131 turned on and the preset heating temperature in the intelligent heating drinking water module 130.

[0059] Participate Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, regarding the above decision tree algorithm, a decision tree is a tree structure similar to a flowchart, consisting of decision nodes and leaf nodes. The decision node at the top of the tree is called the root node. Each decision node contains several decision conditions C, corresponding to several branches. Each branch represents a test output. The node without branches is a leaf node, representing a class or class distribution. Among them, X1 represents the total number of livestock, C1, C2, and C3 represent the migration direction and distance of the livestock, X2 and X3 represent the number of livestock during migration, and Y1, Y2, and Y3 represent the number of intelligent heating and drinking water devices to be turned on. Combining the above, the migration law of livestock in the embodiment of the present invention includes the number of livestock, migration direction, and distance.

[0060] Based on the migration direction and distance represented by C1 and C2, the migration dynamics of the total number of X1 livestock are judged. If the livestock do not have an obvious movement distance, only the result Y1 is output, and the corresponding number of intelligent heating and drinking water devices is turned on. If the number of livestock migrating in the C1 direction is X2 and the number of livestock migrating in the C2 direction is X3, after the livestock reach a new position, C3 is used to judge the number of intelligent heating and drinking water devices that should be turned on currently. If the livestock do not have a large movement trajectory, the number of intelligent heating and drinking water devices Y2 and Y3 required for this movement direction and the number of livestock in this direction are turned on. If there is a new migration direction, the intelligent heating and drinking water devices Y3 and Y1 required for this direction are turned on.

[0061] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, optionally, in this embodiment, the livestock breeding drinking water control system 100 based on cloud service decision-making further includes: a mobile remote control module 140, which is used to control the number of intelligent heating and drinking water devices 131 turned on and the preset heating temperature in the intelligent heating and drinking water module 130 according to the migration law analyzed by the cloud service decision-making platform 120. In other words, the cloud service decision-making platform 120 receives the position information of the livestock transmitted by the positioning detection module 110, analyzes and processes it to obtain the migration law of the livestock, and sends the corresponding migration law of the livestock to the mobile remote control module 140 through a communication network, for example. The mobile remote control module 140 specifically controls the intelligent heating and drinking water devices 131 in the intelligent heating and drinking water module 130. The intelligent heating and drinking water module 130 is, for example, a smartphone or a tablet computer, etc.

[0062] See Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, the core design of the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 is the microcontroller, and all corresponding instructions are issued by the microcontroller. The microcontroller includes the STM32F407 core control board, the solar power conversion module, the A / D conversion module, the power control module, and the signal transceiver module. Among them, the STM32F407 core control board serves as the core processor. The solar power conversion module is used to realize the conversion and storage of solar energy / electric energy. The A / D conversion module is used to perform analog-to-digital conversion on the signals collected by various sensors. The power control module is used to control motors, water pumps, solenoid valves, etc. The signal transceiver module is used to realize data interaction with the cloud service decision-making platform 120.

[0063] See Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 includes a microcontroller (8), a solar panel (13), a storage battery (7), a water pump (5), a heating tank (12), a heater (9), a water trough (1), a temperature sensor (6), and a water level sensor (2). Its operation is specifically controlled by the microcontroller (8). Its working principle is as follows: After receiving a control command from the cloud service decision-making platform 120 or the intelligent heating drinking water module 130, the microcontroller (8) controls a motor, such as a stepper motor (11), to drive the water pump (5) to inject water into the heating tank (12), and then the heater (9), such as a resistance heater, heats the drinking water. When the temperature sensor (6) detects that the preset temperature is reached, the solenoid valve is opened to inject water into the water trough (1). When the water level sensor (2) detects that the water trough (1) reaches the set water level, the water injection is paused. When livestock arrives, they can drink the drinking water that has reached the preset temperature from the water trough (1). In addition, the solar panel (13) converts solar energy into electrical energy and stores it in the storage battery (7), and the storage battery (7) provides the electrical energy required for the operation of the intelligent heating drinking water device 131.

[0064] Optionally, the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 in this embodiment further includes an ultrasonic sensor (3) for detecting livestock near the intelligent heating drinking water device 131. Specifically, when the ultrasonic sensor (3) detects livestock nearby, it will transmit the detection information to the microcontroller (8), and the microcontroller will transmit the detection information to the cloud service decision-making platform 120 via the signal transceiver module. Thus, the cloud service decision-making platform 120 can simultaneously analyze the migration patterns of livestock based on the positioning information transmitted by the receiving positioning detection module 110 (the positioning module 111a of the collar 111) and the detection information transmitted by the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 (ultrasonic sensor (3)), and then remotely control the intelligent heating drinking water device according to the migration patterns, and control whether the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 is turned on and the water injection level of the water tank (1) according to the detection information. For example, if the cloud service decision-making platform 120 receives and analyzes the detection information and concludes that there are more livestock near the intelligent heating drinking water device 131, it will control the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 to turn on and set a relatively high water injection level for the water tank (1); if there are fewer livestock near the intelligent heating drinking water device 131, it will control the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 to turn on and set a relatively low water injection level for the water tank (1); if there are no livestock near the intelligent heating drinking water device 131, it will control the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 to turn off.

[0065] Optionally, the intelligent heating drinking water device 131 in this embodiment may further include a heat preservation layer (4) covering the heating box (12) to keep the drinking water in the heating box (12) warm; and support columns (10) disposed between the heating box (12) and the water tank (1) to specifically support the heating box (12) and the water tank (1) on the ground.

[0066] The following is a method embodiment corresponding to the above system embodiment, and the method in this embodiment can be implemented in cooperation with the system in the above embodiment. The relevant technical details mentioned in the above embodiments are still valid in the system of this embodiment, and will not be repeated here to avoid redundancy.

[0067] See Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a livestock breeding drinking water control method 200 based on cloud service decision-making, including steps S210 - S230. Among them:

[0068] Step S210, obtaining the position information of livestock in real time through a positioning detection module, where the positioning detection module includes a plurality of collars disposed on the livestock;

[0071] In an embodiment of the present invention, the livestock breeding drinking water control method 200 based on cloud service decision further includes the following steps: the cloud service decision platform sends the migration law of the livestock to the mobile remote control module; the mobile remote control module sends another control information to the intelligent heating and drinking water module according to the migration law of the livestock; and the intelligent heating and drinking water module controls the number of intelligent heating and drinking water devices to be turned on and the preset heating temperature according to the another control information.
