Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] Embodiment 1: It should be explained here that, in the actual operation process, the present invention needs to be used in coordination with the chain belt group. The present invention is arranged below the chain belt group, and the forelimbs and hind limbs on one side of the livestock cub are fixed to the upper surface of one of the chain belts, and the forelimbs and hind limbs on the other side of the livestock cub are fixed to the upper surface of the other chain belt. At this time, the livestock cub is in a prone state, and its abdomen is exposed to the outside. The two chain belts run synchronously and drive the livestock cub to move synchronously until it moves to the top of the present invention. like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the livestock castration auxiliary positioning device used in animal husbandry includes a base 1, a base plate 2 is arranged above the base 1, a support plate 4, a support plate 5 and a guide plate 6 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 2, the support plate 5 is located between the support plate 4 and the guide plate 6, a transverse guide rail 7 is fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 5, a guide groove 8 is provided on the side wall of the guide plate 6, a plurality of installation grooves are provided on the top of the base 1, a lifting cylinder 3 is fixedly installed in the installation groove, the output end of the lifting cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the base plate 2, and the guide groove 8 is composed of an upper inclined groove, a horizontal groove and a lower inclined groove.
[0021] A frame 12 is fixedly installed on the top of the support plate 4, and a frame groove is opened through the top of the frame 12. A top support frame 13 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the frame groove. A mounting groove 1 is opened on both sides of the top support frame 13, and an airbag 141 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 1. Both ends of the frame 12 are fixedly installed with a frame 15 by bolts. A rotating plate 16 is rotatably connected in the frame 15, and a positioning plate 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating plate 16. The inner side of the positioning plate 17 is an arc surface, and a mounting groove 2 is opened on the inner side of the positioning plate 17. An airbag 2 142 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 2. Airbag 1 141 and airbag 2 142 are connected to an external air supply mechanism through an air guide pipe. An electric push rod 18 is rotatably connected to the top of the outer wall of the support plate 4, and the output end of the electric push rod 18 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating plate 16.
[0022] In the specific setting, the airbag 1 141 and the airbag 2 142 are set, and the airbag 1 141 and the airbag 2 142 are expanded under the action of the external air supply mechanism until they are completely attached to the testicles of the livestock cub. At the same time, the airbag 1 141 and the airbag 2 142 have certain soft characteristics, which can reduce the pain caused by the direct contact between the components and the skin of the livestock cub; When the young livestock moves to the top of the present invention under the action of the chain belt group, the lifting cylinder 3 pushes the base plate 2 and the components on the top thereof to rise synchronously until they move to the designated position, at which time the top of the top support frame 13 contacts the testicles of the livestock, and causes the two testicles of the young livestock to be distributed on both sides of the top support frame 13; Then the electric push rod 18 drives the rotating plate 16 to deflect inward, and the rotating plate 16 drives the positioning plate 17 to deflect synchronously during the deflection process until the corresponding positioning plate 17 contacts the testicle on the same side of the livestock cub, and then the positioning plate 17 cooperates with the top support frame 13 to position the two testicles of the livestock cub respectively. In this process, the airbag 1 141 and the airbag 2 142 expand synchronously, so that the positioning plate 17 cooperates with the top support frame 13 to clamp and position the testicles of the livestock cub more tightly to avoid arbitrary shaking.
[0023] Embodiment 2: The top of the base plate 2 is also fixedly connected with a vertical plate 9, and the side wall of the vertical plate 9 and one end of the support plate 4 are respectively fixedly connected with a bracket 1 and a bracket 2 10, and a threaded rod 19 and a sliding rod 20 are arranged between the corresponding bracket 2 10 and the corresponding bracket 1, and a threaded groove and a through groove are penetrated through the side wall of the slide plate 111, the threaded rod 19 is threadedly connected with the threaded groove, and the sliding rod 20 is slidably connected with the inner wall of the through groove; A motor 23 for driving the threaded rod 19 to rotate is arranged on the outer side of the vertical plate 9. The two ends of the threaded rod 19 are movably connected to the bracket 2 10 and the bracket 1 through bearings. The two ends of the sliding rod 20 are fixedly connected to the bracket 2 10 and the bracket 1. A sliding cutting assembly 11 is arranged on the top of the base plate 2. The sliding cutting assembly 11 includes a slide plate 111 and a lifting rod 112. Slots are symmetrically opened on the top of the slide plate 111. The lifting rod 112 is slidably connected in the slots. A bearing plate 113 is arranged above the slide plate 111. The bottom of the bearing plate 113 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting rod 112.
[0024] A holder 114 is fixedly installed on the top of the carrying plate 113 by bolts, and a sliding cutter 115 is fixedly installed in the holder 114. The two sliding cutters 115 are used to cut the two testicles of the livestock cubs. A connecting plate 116 is arranged below the slide plate 111. The top of the connecting plate 116 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting rod 112. Both ends of the connecting plate 116 are fixedly connected to an axle seat. A guide roller 117 is movably connected to the axle seat through a bearing. The guide roller 117 is slidably connected in the guide groove 8. Both ends of the slide plate 111 are fixedly connected to sliders 27, and the sliders 27 are slidably connected in the corresponding transverse guide rails 7.
[0025] A plurality of nozzles 21 are fixedly mounted on one side of the inner wall of the support plate 4 near the vertical plate 9. It should be explained here that there are two kinds of liquids sprayed by the nozzles 21, namely disinfectant and clean water. One end of the nozzle 21 is connected with a liquid supply pipe 22. The liquid supply pipe 22 connected to the nozzle 21 spraying disinfectant is used to transport disinfectant, and the liquid supply pipe 22 connected to the nozzle 21 spraying clean water is used to transport clean water. A filter hole is provided on one side of the top of the base plate 2 to discharge clean water, disinfectant and blood of livestock cubs. A plurality of groups of hollow cross bars 24 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the inner wall of the vertical plate 9, and a cleaning cloth cover 25 is wrapped on the outer side of the hollow cross bar 24. One end of the hollow cross bar 24 is connected to the liquid supply pipe 26. The liquid transported in the liquid supply pipe 26 is disinfecting alcohol. A large number of holes are provided on the outer side of the hollow cross bar 24 in a matrix form to facilitate the disinfecting alcohol to flow out from the corresponding holes and infiltrate the cleaning cloth cover 25, so that the cleaning cloth cover 25 absorbs alcohol to facilitate the disinfection and cleaning of the sliding cutter 115. The liquid supply pipe 1 22 and the liquid supply pipe 2 26 are connected to the corresponding external liquid supply mechanism.
[0026] In the specific setting, after the testicles of the livestock cub are fixed, the motor 23 is started, and the motor 23 drives the threaded rod 19 to rotate. The threaded rod 19 rotates in the corresponding bracket 1 and bracket 2 10. The slide plate 111 slides stably under the action of the threaded rod 19 by utilizing the mutual cooperation between the slide bar 20 and the through groove. During the sliding process, the slide plate 111 utilizes the mutual cooperation between the slider 27 and the transverse guide rail 7 to perform stable horizontal movement.
[0027] When the guide roller 117 moves from the upper inclined groove to the horizontal groove, the guide roller 117 gradually rises and drives the connecting plate 116 to rise synchronously. The lifting rod 112 slides in the slot hole. During the rising process, the connecting plate 116 drives the supporting plate 113 and the sliding cutter 115 to rise synchronously through the lifting rod 112. The sliding cutter 115 slides and cuts the outer skin of the testicles of the livestock cub under the cooperation of the guide roller 117 and the guide groove 8 until the guide roller 117 moves from the horizontal groove to the lower inclined groove, and with the cooperation of the positioning plate 17, the top support frame 13, the airbag 141 and the airbag 2 142, the sliding cutter 115 can accurately slide and cut the skin on the livestock cub for protecting the testicles, and two incisions are cut to facilitate the subsequent squeezing and pushing out of the livestock testicles from the incisions.
[0028] After the young animal is cut, the positioning plate 17 releases the tightness and positioning of the testicle of the young animal, and then the young animal is transported to the next process under the action of the chain belt group, so that the testicle can be taken out; In order to further improve the efficiency of testicular sliding cutting of livestock cubs, if the livestock cubs are to be transported in an orderly manner with the chain belt group, the continuously used sliding cutting knife 115 needs to be cleaned in real time to avoid cross infection. To achieve the above purpose, the specific real-time steps are as follows: When the sliding cutter 115 moves to the initial position after the sliding cutter 115 has completed the opening of the testicle of the young animal, the nozzle 21 successively sprays clean water and disinfectant to fully press the outer side of the sliding cutter 115. The setting position of the nozzle 21 is not limited to Figure 4 As shown, in order to clean the sliding cutter 115 more thoroughly, the position of the nozzle 21 can be adjusted to achieve the purpose of fully cleaning the sliding cutter 115. After cleaning, the sliding cutter 115 enters the gap between the two corresponding cleaning cloth sleeves 25, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the cleaning cloth cover 25 cleans the blood and impurities on the surface of the sliding cutter 115 and further disinfects the surface. When the testicle of the next livestock cub is opened by sliding cutting, the sliding cutter 115 escapes from the gap between the two corresponding cleaning cloth covers 25 and moves toward the livestock cub.
