Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sheep head restraint devices, in particular to a goat head restraint device. Background Art

[0002] Goats are sensitive by nature and are prone to stress. Long-term or intense stress can affect their health and even cause acute stress syndrome, leading to death. Therefore, stress must be avoided as much as possible during the breeding process, making stress management a key step in ensuring goat health and production efficiency.

[0003] With the development of the industry, restraint devices are often used for stress management. Currently, most restraint devices directly fix the goat's head or body, such as:

[0004] Patent document with publication number CN217510492U discloses a head restraining device for venous blood collection from sheep, including a base frame, a vertical frame symmetrically provided on the base frame, a head fixer sleeved on the vertical frame, a first lifting rod sleeved on the top of the vertical frame, the first lifting rod is threadedly connected to the head fixer, a body fixer is provided on the base frame, and the body fixer is used to support the sheep's abdomen and separate and fix the limbs.

[0005] Patent publication number CN221654670U discloses a device for securing live sheep. The device comprises an L-shaped base plate with a horizontal slot at its top. A slider is secured within the slot. A retaining ring is located on top of the slider. A threaded rod is threadedly engaged with the top of the retaining ring, and a pressure plate is flexibly engaged with the bottom of the rod. With the retaining ring, the device is first buckled around the sheep's neck and secured with a locating pin. The threaded rod is then rotated to push the pressure plate downward, clamping the sheep's neck.

[0006] Although the above patent documents can fix sheep during operations such as vaccination, blood collection, and hoof trimming to prevent sheep from struggling and causing operational errors or harming operators, struggling is only a manifestation of stress. Fixing the sheep can only prevent them from struggling. In fact, stress is still occurring, but it cannot be directly observed. This practice increases the possibility of sheep suffering from acute stress syndrome and dying.

[0007] Based on this, the problem to be solved by the present invention is: how to solve the problem that the current restraint devices are still unable to prevent goats from stress. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] The following will provide a clear and complete description of the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0043] Example 1

[0044] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a goat restraint device, comprising a fixing frame 1 and a receiving frame 2;

[0045] The fixing frame 1 is connected to the outside to fix the goat restraint device at a desired position;

[0046] The accommodating frame 2 is connected to the fixing frame 1;

[0047] The accommodating frame 2 includes a accommodating structure having an accommodating chamber a and a flexible sleeve 24; the accommodating chamber a is used to accommodate the sheep's head portion excluding the sheep's horns; the flexible sleeve 24 is used to pass around the back of the sheep's horns and has its two ends respectively connected to the two sides of the accommodating chamber a;

[0048] The accommodating chamber a is also used to provide space for the sheep's head to swing; the flexible sleeve 24 is also used to provide space for the sheep's head to move forward and backward and to limit the sheep's head from completely escaping from the accommodating chamber a.

[0049] The accommodating structure includes a connecting rod 21, an extension rod 22 and an arc rod 23; in this embodiment, the connecting rod 21, the extension rod 22 and the arc rod 23 form an accommodating chamber a for accommodating a sheep's head; along the extension direction of the extension rod 22, the accommodating chamber a gradually expands; in actual application, there is a gap between the accommodating chamber a and the sheep's head so that the sheep's head can swing, and the swinging angle is not greater than 30°.

[0050] It should be noted that:

[0051] 1. The accommodating chamber a is designed to simulate the long and pointed shape of a goat's head, so that after the goat's head enters, it can restrict the swinging of the goat's head to a certain extent, but it will not completely fix the goat's head, so that the goat, which is sensitive by nature, can stay comfortable and relaxed as much as possible.

[0052] 2. The swing angle of no more than 30° is an empirical value, because if the goat's range of movement is too large, the restraint function cannot be achieved. In actual work, adaptive modifications can be made according to the breed of goats.

[0053] Specifically, one end of the extension rod 22 is connected to the connecting rod 21, and the other end of the extension rod 22 extends horizontally outward; there are two extension rods 22, and the two extension rods 22 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the connecting rod 21; along the extension direction of the extension rod 22, the distance between the two extension rods 22 gradually increases;

[0054] More specifically, the two ends of the arc rod 23 are respectively connected to the two extension rods 22, and the arc rod 23 is located above or below the extension rod 22; there are multiple arc rods 23, and the multiple arc rods 23 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the extension rod 22;

[0055] In this embodiment, preferably, the arc rod 23 includes a first arc rod 231 and two second arc rods 232;

[0056] The first arc rod 231 is located above the extension rod 22; both ends of the first arc rod 231 are connected to the two extension rods 22 respectively; of course, in other embodiments, the first arc rod 231 may be preferably multiple, and the multiple first arc rods 231 are connected to the extension rod 22 at intervals, and the multiple first arc rods 231 gradually increase in size along the extension direction of the extension rod 22;

[0057] The second arc rod 232 is located below the extension rod 22; both ends of the second arc rod 232 are connected to the two extension rods 22 respectively; the two second arc rods 232 are connected to the extension rods 22 at a distance; the two second arc rods 232 are gradually enlarged.

[0058] Under the above-mentioned preferred embodiment, the connecting rod 21, the extension rod 22 and the arc rod 23 form the gradually expanding accommodating chamber a to achieve the above-mentioned purpose. For detailed structure, please refer to the appendix of the specification. Figures 1 to 3 .

[0059] The accommodating chamber a is divided into a front area 1a and a rear area 2a, bounded by the first curved rod 231 (only one first curved rod 231 in this embodiment) that is distal to the connecting rod 21. The front area 1a accommodates the portion of the goat's head at the front end of the horns, while the rear area 2a accommodates the portion of the goat's head at the rear end of the horns. The flexible sleeve 24 is located above the rear area 2a. With this design, when the goat's head enters the accommodating chamber a, the portion of the head at the front end of the horns (the goat's face) fully enters the front area 1a and can swing within the front area 1a to achieve a secure position. The portion of the head at the rear end of the horns cannot pass through the first curved rod 231 to enter the front area 1a of the accommodating chamber a. Instead, it is flexibly secured by the flexible sleeve 24, preventing the goat's head from exiting the accommodating chamber a. However, the goat's head can still move forward and backward within the accommodating chamber a within a certain distance, while the goat's body can also move at a certain angle. This design does not completely restrict the goat's normal movements, thus allowing the sensitive goat to maintain maximum comfort and relaxation.

[0060] Reference Manual Figure 3 In this embodiment, the flexible sleeve 24 is located at the end of the extension rod 22 away from the connecting rod 21. One end of the flexible sleeve 24 is connected to one of the extension rods 22, and the other end of the flexible sleeve 24 is a free end. The free end passes under the goat's horn and is connected to the other extension rod 22. Preferably, the flexible sleeve 24 is a rope.

[0061] Preferably, the two extension rods 22 are each provided with a binding block 25 at one end away from the connecting rod 21; one end of the flexible sleeve 24 is connected to one of the binding blocks 25, and the other end of the flexible sleeve 24 is the free end, which passes under the goat's horn and is connected to the other binding block 25.

[0062] With the above design, the flexible sleeve 24 simply realizes the above functions.

[0063] In this embodiment, preferably, a hook 101 is provided on the fixing frame 1; the hook 101 is used to connect to an external device to secure the goat restraint device in a desired position. In actual use, the goat restraint device of this embodiment can be secured by simply hooking the hook 101 according to the on-site environment. This preference significantly expands the application scenarios and scope of the device.

[0064] Further preferably, the accommodating frame 2 is slidably connected to the fixing frame 1 up and down; combined with the above content, under this preference, the up and down adjustment function of the accommodating frame 2 is added. This design not only further broadens the application scope of this embodiment, but also can keep the goat's head raised and expose the neck part, so that the operator can complete tasks such as infusion and blood drawing.

[0065] Specifically, the fixing frame 1 includes a vertical pole 11 and a horizontal pole 12 ; there are two vertical poles 11 , and the two vertical poles 11 are symmetrically arranged; both ends of the horizontal pole 12 are respectively connected to the two vertical poles 11 .

[0066] More specifically, both ends of the connecting rod 21 are respectively sleeved on the two vertical poles 11; both ends of the connecting rod 21 are provided with limiting holes 201; the limiting holes 201 are threaded holes for inserting screws 202 to press against the vertical poles 11 to limit the sliding of the accommodating frame 2.

[0067] While embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, and that the scope of the invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
