At the same time, in the description of this application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, in the first aspect, the embodiment of the present application provides an animal body temperature collection device, comprising: a male buckle 1 and a female buckle 2 that are detachably connected to each other, the male buckle 1 can pass through the animal's organ, the female buckle 2 can be connected to the male buckle 1, and a body temperature conduction part 3 is provided on the side of the male buckle 1 facing the female buckle 2, and a sensing module 5 for sensing the temperature of the body temperature conduction part is also provided in the male buckle 1. When the male buckle 1 and the female buckle 2 clamp the animal's organ, the male buckle 1 and the female buckle 2 are respectively fitted with the animal's organ, the body temperature conduction part 3 can sense the temperature of the animal's organ and transmit the temperature to the sensing module 5. A processing module 4 is also provided in the male buckle 1, and the processing module 4 is electrically connected to the sensing module 5, so as to obtain the temperature signal of the sensing module 5 and transmit the corresponding animal's identity information and temperature signal to the terminal device, thereby realizing the detection of the animal's body temperature. When the animal's body temperature is abnormal, the specific animal information can be viewed through the terminal device, so as to accurately find the animal with abnormal body temperature, thereby realizing the monitoring function of the animal's body temperature collection device on the animal's body temperature.

[0027] Optionally, the animal organ may include an ear or a wing, that is, the animal body temperature collection device of the embodiment of the present application may clamp the ear of the animal or the wing of the animal.

[0028] Optionally, the processing module 4 and the sensing module 5 may be connected via a wire to make the transmitted signal more stable.

[0029] Optionally, the processing module 4 acquires the temperature signal of the sensing module 5 includes the sensing module 5 actively transmitting the temperature signal to the processing module 4 , or the processing module 4 actively acquires the temperature signal of the sensing module 5 .

[0030] Optionally, before the animal temperature collection device is worn, each processing module 4 will be loaded with the identity information of the corresponding animal. The identity information of each animal will be different and may include an identity photo or an identity ID, etc.

[0031] Optionally, the terminal device may also include a computer, a mobile phone, or an identity temperature receiver, etc.

[0032] Optionally, the animal body temperature collection device may have a built-in battery to provide power; the battery may be a rechargeable battery; or a solar panel that can be automatically charged and allow the animal to always wear the animal body temperature collection device, avoiding the problem of disassembling and recharging the animal body temperature collection device when it runs out of power.

[0033] Optionally, the animal body temperature collection device can also be passive, that is, no battery is set inside, but the animal can be moved to a specific area, and a non-contact charging method can be realized in the specific area. It can also avoid the problem of disassembling and recharging the animal body temperature collection device when it is out of power.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, optionally, the body temperature conducting part 3 can be a temperature sensing protrusion, or a temperature sensing annular sheet. Setting it as a temperature sensing annular sheet can increase the contact area between the animal body temperature collection device and the animal organ, thereby making the sensed animal body temperature more accurate.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, as an implementation mode, a receiving coil 6 is further provided in the male buckle 1, and the receiving coil 6 is electrically connected to the sensing module 5 and the processing module 4. The receiving coil 6 can generate an induced current and provide power to the sensing module 5 and the processing module 4, so that the animal body temperature collection device of the embodiment of the present application is a passive device, which can achieve the purpose of automatic charging and avoid the situation where the animal body temperature collection device has no power supply.

[0037] Optionally, within the scope of animal breeding, a terminal device can be set up in a specific area. The terminal device includes a receiving module that can receive the temperature signal and identity information transmitted by the animal body temperature collection device for reference by the staff. In addition, the terminal device can also include a charging coil. When current passes through the charging coil, a magnetic field will be generated, turning the charging coil into a magnet. When the animal approaches, the receiving coil 6 in the animal body temperature collection device will generate an induced current. A certain frequency of alternating current can be provided to the charging coil, so that the charging coil generates a constantly changing magnetic field. In this way, when the receiving coil 6 approaches this magnetic field, a current will be generated in the receiving coil 6, thereby realizing energy transmission. In addition, the receiving coil 6 also generates alternating current. In order to enable the receiving coil 6 to charge the functional modules such as the processing module 4 and the induction module 5, a rectifier and a current stabilizer can be set in the animal body temperature collection device so that the current output by the receiving coil 6 is direct current.

[0038] At the same time, using a passive method to provide power to functional modules such as the processing module 4 and the sensing module 5 can also reduce costs.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, as an implementation mode, an antenna 7 is further provided in the male buckle 1, and the antenna 7 is connected to the processing module 4 for receiving or sending signals, thereby realizing information interconnection between the animal body temperature collection device and the mobile terminal.

[0040] Optionally, the antenna 7 is prepared by a printing process or an etching process.

[0041] like Figure 3As shown, as an implementation mode, a support portion 8 is provided inside the male buckle 1 , and the receiving coil 6 , the processing module 4 and the sensing module 5 are all fixed on the support portion 8 .

[0042] Optionally, the shape of the support portion 8 matches the shape of the male buckle 1 to facilitate assembly in the base 112 .

[0043] Preferably, the support portion 8 can be made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material. Of course, the support portion 8 can also be made of other plastic materials or organic polymer materials or paper materials other than PVC material.

[0044] Optionally, the antenna 7 may be printed on the surface of the support portion 8, and the processing module 4, the sensing module 5, and the receiving coil 6 may be fixed on the surface of the support portion 8 by gluing.

[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, as an embodiment, the male buckle 1 includes a puncture body 11, the puncture body 11 includes a puncture portion 111, and the female buckle 2 can be sleeved on the outer surface of the puncture portion 111. By providing the puncture body 11, it is convenient for the male buckle 1 to pass through the organ of the animal, and the female buckle 2 can be sleeved on the outer surface of the puncture portion 111, thereby realizing the connection between the male buckle 1 and the female buckle 2.

In addition, the radial dimension of the puncture rod 1111 gradually increases from the connection position with the base 112 to the direction away from the base 112, which is also in line with the growth law of animal organs. As the animal grows older, its organs will gradually become thicker, such as the ears or wings of the animal. In the process of thickening, the female buckle 2 will gradually move away from the base 112, and the puncture rod 1111 will also gradually become thicker away from the base 112, making it difficult for the female buckle 2 to move, and also improving the stability between the male buckle 1 and the female buckle 2.

[0047] like Figure 4As shown, as an embodiment, the puncture portion 111 also includes a puncture head 1112 for limiting the position of the female buckle 2, the puncture head 1112 is connected to the puncture rod 1111, and the radial dimension of the connecting end of the puncture head 1112 and the puncture rod 1111 is larger than the puncture rod 1111, so that the puncture head 1112 can limit the female buckle 2.

[0048] like Figure 2 and 4 As shown, as an embodiment, the male buckle 1 further includes a protective sleeve 9, which is sleeved on the outer surface of the base 112, and the support portion 8 is located in the protective sleeve 9. By providing the protective sleeve 9, the base 112 can be protected.

[0049] Optionally, the protective cover 9 may be made of silicone to improve its fit with the animal organ.

[0050] Optionally, a protective cover 9 may also be provided on the outer surface of the female buckle 2 .

[0051] like Figure 4 As shown, as an embodiment, the base 112 includes a first base layer 1121 and a second base layer 1122, the radial dimension of the second base layer 1122 is larger than that of the first base layer 1121, and the body temperature conduction part 3 is arranged on the first base layer 1121; the protective cover 9 is provided with a through hole, and the first base layer 1121 is adapted to the through hole, so that the body temperature conduction part 3 is exposed to the outside of the protective cover 9, which is convenient for contact with the animal organ, and the radial dimension of the second base layer 1122 is larger than that of the first base layer 1121, so that a snap-fit ​​structure is formed between the protective cover 9 and the base 112, and the second base layer 1122 supports the protective cover 9 to improve the stability of the structure.

[0052] Optionally, the support part 8 can be installed in the second base layer 1122. On the one hand, the second base layer 1122 protects the support part 8, and on the other hand, it is convenient to connect the sensing module 5 on the support part 8 with the body temperature conduction part 3.

[0053] Optionally, the protective cover 9 may be composed of two parts, and covered on the outer surface of the base 112 by threaded connection.

[0054] like Figure 5As shown, in the second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an animal information collection system, including the animal body temperature collection device provided in the first aspect, and also including a feeding device 10, the feeding device 10 can provide food and water for the animal, and a terminal device is provided in the feeding device 10, the terminal device can generate a changing magnetic field, through the attraction of the feeding device 10, the animal can eat and drink water, thereby shortening the distance between the terminal device and the animal body temperature collection device, because the terminal device can generate a changing magnetic field, therefore, the receiving coil 6 in the animal body temperature collection device can generate an induced current, so that the processing module 4 and the induction module 5 can be charged.

[0055] Optionally, the terminal device includes a charging coil. When current passes through the charging coil, the feeding device 10 can be connected to an external AC power to provide AC power of a certain frequency to the charging coil, so that the charging coil generates a continuously changing magnetic field. In this way, when the animal approaches the feeding device 10 to eat or drink, current is generated in the receiving coil 6, thereby realizing energy transmission.

[0056] Optionally, the embodiment of the present application sets a terminal device in the feeding device 10 to reduce human intervention, that is, there is no need to manually drive the animal to a specific environment to charge the animal temperature collection device. Instead, the animal temperature collection device can be charged according to the animal's own life needs, thereby reducing labor costs; in addition, sick animals can also be screened out through the process of eating or drinking, because for animals, eating or drinking is the most basic survival skill. When an animal does not obtain identity information and temperature signals, it may be sick.

[0057] Optionally, the terminal device may also include a computer, a mobile phone, or an identity temperature receiver, etc., so that the identity information of the animal can be received and observed through a display on the computer or mobile phone.
