Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of ear tag pliers technology, specifically an ear tag pliers for animal husbandry and veterinary medicine. Background Technology

[0002] In modern livestock management, ear tags are an important tool for identifying and tracking individual livestock, widely used for identification, disease control, and production management of farmed animals such as pigs, cattle, and sheep. To securely attach the ear tag to the animal's ear, specialized ear-tag pliers are typically used.

[0003] Traditional ear tagging pliers are mostly manual mechanical structures, relying on pressure applied by the operator's hand to complete the tagging action. These devices have several problems: First, because they rely entirely on manual labor, it's difficult to maintain consistent tagging force and direction, leading to tag misalignment, tilting, or inconsistent depth. This not only affects the stability of the ear tag but may also cause unnecessary damage to the animal's ear tissue, increasing stress and the risk of infection. Second, traditional ear tagging pliers lack an effective mechanism for securing the tag plate, allowing the tag to wobble or become misaligned during tagging, resulting in tagging failure or unclear information. Furthermore, the tagging process usually requires pre-treatment of the ear to prevent infection, but most existing devices lack integrated disinfection functions, requiring operators to use additional disinfection tools, increasing the number of steps and time involved, and reducing work efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an ear tag clamp for animal husbandry and veterinary medicine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an ear tag pliers for animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, including a handle, a hollow square plate fixedly connected to the handle, and a vertical marking mechanism for improving marking accuracy installed inside the hollow square plate;

[0006] The vertical marking mechanism includes an outer shell, which is fixed to a hollow square plate. A miniature cylinder is fixed inside the outer shell and is slidably connected through the hollow square plate. A drive rod is hinged to the telescopic end of the miniature cylinder, and a crossbar is hinged to the end of the drive rod away from the miniature cylinder. A support rod is hinged to the crossbar, and a top plate is hinged to the end of the support rod away from the crossbar. A marking nail for penetrating a pig's ear is fixed to the top plate, and a marking disc for fixing to the pig's ear is installed at the end of the marking nail away from the top plate.

[0007] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution: the hollow square plate is provided with a square opening for limiting the movement of the support rod, and the support rod passes through the square opening;

[0008] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution: the hollow square plate is provided with a first sliding groove, and the first sliding groove limits and guides the movement of the crossbar through an internal sliding slider, while the end of the slider away from the first sliding groove is fixed to the crossbar;

[0009] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution: a limiting post is fixedly connected to the top plate, and the limiting post is slidably connected to the hollow square plate. The handle is provided with a second sliding groove, and the second sliding groove limits and guides the lifting and lowering of the top plate through an internal sliding connecting block. At the same time, the end of the connecting block away from the second sliding groove is fixedly connected to the top plate.

[0010] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution: the hollow square plate is provided with a clamping mechanism for fixing the marking plate, and the clamping mechanism includes a baffle. There are two sets of baffles, and the two sets of baffles are respectively fixed to the left and right ends of the hollow square plate. A telescopic rod is fixed to the baffle, and a gripper for clamping the label plate is fixed to the end of the telescopic rod away from the baffle. At the same time, a return spring is sleeved on the telescopic rod, and the two ends of the return spring are respectively fixed to the baffle and the gripper.

[0011] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution: the hollow square plate is provided with a placement hole for placing the label plate, and the hollow square plate is provided with a support plate for supporting the label plate.

[0012] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution: a disinfection water tank is fixedly connected to the top plate, and a miniature water pump for extracting disinfectant is installed on the disinfection water tank. At the same time, a water outlet pipe is fixedly connected to the output end of the miniature water pump. A nozzle for spraying disinfectant is fixedly connected to the end of the water outlet pipe away from the miniature water pump. A limiting ring is fitted on the water outlet pipe, and the limiting ring is fixedly connected to the top plate.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0014] 1. In this invention, a vertical marking mechanism consisting of a miniature cylinder, a drive linkage, a crossbar, a support linkage, and a top plate is set up to achieve precise control of the marking action. The miniature cylinder, as a power source, provides stable thrust, which, after being transmitted through the linkage mechanism, causes the marking nail to penetrate the pig's ear vertically. This effectively avoids damage to the pig's ear caused by marking deviation, greatly improves the accuracy and consistency of marking, and ensures safety.

[0015] 2. In this invention, by setting up a clamping mechanism and adopting a combination structure of baffle, telescopic rod, gripper and return spring, it can elastically clamp marking discs of different sizes, which is convenient for quick installation and replacement, and at the same time prevents the label plate from shaking during the marking operation, thus improving the efficiency of on-site operation.

[0016] 3. In this invention, a disinfection tank, a micro water pump, a water outlet pipe and a nozzle are integrated on the top plate, and a limiting ring is provided outside the water outlet pipe for fixation. The micro water pump can be activated before or after marking to spray disinfectant evenly from the nozzle to the marking area of ​​the pig ear, thereby achieving instant disinfection and effectively reducing the risk of infection caused by marking.
