[0036] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 2 As shown, the gate 3 is provided with a second lifting member 301 connected to the enclosure frame 1. The gate 3 and the enclosure frame 1 are slidably connected. The opening or closing of both ends of the temporary parking space 101 can be achieved by controlling the second lifting member 301.
[0037] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a fixing frame 7 is provided on the enclosure frame 1 above the temporary parking space 101, and a limiting member 701 is provided on the fixing frame 7 to form a flexible contact layer by expansion. If an airbag structure is adopted, a flexible contact layer is formed by injecting air. After the sheep body is lifted to a specified height, the back of the sheep's torso contacts the limiting member 701 to achieve positioning, and cooperates with the lifting strip 5 to improve the wrapping and restraining effect to prevent the sheep from shaking, thereby improving the measurement accuracy.
[0038] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the weighing member 4 is symmetrically provided with weighing rods 401 extending upward, and a reserved space 402 is formed between the two weighing rods 401 to avoid affecting the lifting and lowering of the outer end of the bracket 2; the force-bearing member 6 includes a third lifting member 601 and a force plate 602; the third lifting member 601 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the bracket 2, and the push rod of the third lifting member 601 is connected to the force plate 602, and the length of the force plate 602 is greater than the length of the reserved space 402. During the process of the first lifting member 102 driving the bracket 2 to rise, the bracket 2 can pass through the reserved space 402 smoothly, and after reaching the specified height, the third lifting member 601 pushes the force plate 602 to move to the reserved space 402, and then the first lifting member 102 drives the bracket 2 to descend. When the force plate 602 contacts the weighing rod 401, it forms a support for the bracket 2 to achieve weight measurement.
[0039] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 6 and Figure 11As shown, guide columns 201 are symmetrically provided at the outer end of the bracket 2, and guide holes 603 connected to the guide columns 201 are provided on the force-bearing plate 602, which effectively improves the displacement stability of the force-bearing plate 602 and provides force support.
[0040] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 12 As shown, a slot is provided at the top of the weighing rod 401, and the width of the slot is equal to the thickness of the force-bearing plate 602. During the descending process of the bracket 2, the force-bearing plate 602 enters the slot to fully support the bracket 2, thereby eliminating the need for support positioning of the first lifting member 102, thereby further improving the measurement accuracy.
[0041] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a sliding column section 103 is provided at the end of the push rod of the first lifting member 102; a base 202 is provided under the bracket 2, and a docking hole 203 connected to the sliding column section 103 is provided at the center of the base 202. The two are connected to support and position the bracket 2, and after the weighing rod 401 replaces the first lifting member 102 for support, it continues to move downward to release the support for the bracket 2, thereby completing the weighing operation.
[0042] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, a sliding frame 8 is provided on the bracket 2, and a roller shaft 801 is symmetrically provided at one end of the sliding frame 8, and a fourth lifting member 802 connected to the bracket 2 is provided at the other end. The end of the lifting bar 5 passes through the two roller shafts 801 and is fixedly connected to the sliding frame 8. Through the operation of the fourth lifting member 802, the sliding frame 8 can be driven to move and adjust, thereby realizing the adjustment of the overhanging width position of the lifting bar 5. In conjunction with the detachable side panel structure, the position of the lifting bar 5 can be adjusted accordingly according to the width size of the temporary parking space 101 to meet different usage conditions. At the same time, the design of the roller shaft 801 can realize the limitation of the lifting bar 5 and avoid direct contact friction between the lifting bar 5 and the sliding frame 8, thereby protecting the safety of the lifting bar 5.
[0043] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 9 As shown, a reel 803 is provided on the sliding frame 8, and the reel 803 is fixedly connected to the end of the lifting strip 5. A control motor 804 is provided at one end of the reel 803. The control motor 804 adopts a stepping motor or a servo motor with a self-locking structure, which can drive the lifting strip 5 to reel up and complete the adjustment of the length of the lifting strip 5.
[0044] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, sliding grooves 204 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the bracket 2 , and both ends of the sliding frame 8 are slidingly connected to the sliding grooves 204 to form a guide and support for the sliding frame 8 .
[0045] The preferred embodiment, combined with Figure 10 and Figure 12 As shown, the enclosure frame 1 is symmetrically provided with positioning rails 104 that are in contact with the side surfaces of the bracket 2, which play the role of firmly limiting the two sides of the bracket 2; a plurality of magnetic parts 501 are provided under the lifting bar 5, and the magnetic parts 501 are made of rubber magnetic material, which can be adhered to the lifting bar 5 and deformed along with the lifting bar 5. During the descent of the lifting bar 5, the lifting bar 5 is assisted in spreading by magnetic adsorption with the bottom surface of the temporary parking space 101, which is convenient for subsequent use and improves the actual use effect.
[0046] The first lifting member 102 , the second lifting member 301 , the third lifting member 601 and the fourth lifting member 802 may all adopt a hydraulic cylinder structure or an electric push rod structure.
[0047] Working principle: The device is placed in a well-enclosed passage. When the sheep are driven, they enter the temporary stopping space 101 along the passage. The right gate 3 is closed to confine the sheep in the temporary stopping space 101. Then the first lifting member 102 pushes the bracket 2 to move upward, driving the lifting bar 5 to rise, and by contacting the sheep's abdominal area, the sheep is lifted as a whole to a specified height. After reaching the specified height, the third lifting member 601 pushes the force plate 602 to move, and then the bracket 2 descends, so that the force plate 602 enters the slot in the weighing rod 401 to form a card connection. As the first lifting member 102 continues to descend, the support for the bracket 2 is released, thereby completing the weight measurement. After the measurement is completed, the first lifting member 102 rises and pushes the bracket 2 to move upward, so that the force plate 602 is out of contact with the weighing rod 401, and then the reset is completed, the left gate 3 is opened, and the weighing operation is completed; during the measurement process, no manual participation is required, which greatly reduces labor intensity and improves work efficiency.
[0048] In actual measurement, it is necessary to pre-test the bracket 2, lifting bar 5, force-bearing member 6 and other components, and the influence of the hydraulic pipeline on the weight needs to be considered. In the measuring system of the weighing piece 4, the weight of this part needs to be removed in advance, and when the force-bearing plate 602 and the weighing rod 401 are not a snap-on connection structure, the influence of the connection between the sliding column section 103 and the docking hole 203 on the weight also needs to be considered.
[0049] In order to adapt to the body shape of sheep at different growth stages, for the adjustment of the range of the temporary stopping space 101, fixing holes can be processed at the front and back of the temporary stopping space 101, and corresponding holes can be processed on the side panels. After installing the side panels, the side panels are installed by passing bolts through the holes and fixing holes. The thickness of side panels of different specifications can be used to adjust the range of the temporary stopping space 101. Similarly, for adjustment in the length direction, the length range can be adjusted by processing fixing holes on the gate 3 and matching the side panels used with the gate. However, since the installation of the side panels will interfere with the upward movement of the gate 3, the gate 3 can be designed to be rotated and opened. Specifically, one side of the gate 3 is connected to the enclosure frame 1 by a rotating shaft, and one end of the second lifting member 301 is connected to the rotating shaft of the enclosure frame 1, and the other end is connected to the rotating shaft in the middle of the gate 3, so that the gate 3 can be rotated and opened.
[0050] It should be understood that the above-described specific embodiments of the present invention are merely illustrative or illustrative of the principles of the present invention and do not constitute limitations of the present invention. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications that fall within the scope and metes and bounds of the appended claims, or equivalents thereof.
