Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of livestock breeding technology, and in particular to a livestock behavior monitoring device for detecting sick animals. Background Technology
[0002] Livestock and poultry behavior monitoring devices can identify individuals with abnormal behavior in a timely and automated manner by monitoring key behaviors such as activity levels, feeding, and drinking. Their core significance lies in enabling early warning of diseases, helping farmers to quickly isolate and treat sick animals before clinical symptoms appear, thereby effectively preventing the spread of epidemics and improving the biosecurity level and overall management efficiency of farms.
[0003] The prior art CN201920193365.9 discloses a disease monitoring and early warning device for large-scale poultry farming. It combines the collection and transmission of various information such as temperature and humidity, concentration of harmful gases, feed intake, water intake, video images and far-infrared thermal imaging in the farming environment to monitor poultry health in real time during large-scale poultry farming and issue alarm information. Ultimately, it can achieve timely detection and rapid prevention and control of diseases, so as to reduce or even avoid economic losses caused by the spread of poultry diseases.
[0004] The prior art CN202210538610.1 discloses a device and method for inspecting sick and dead poultry in caged poultry houses. It uses multimodal data monitored by a thermal imager, a visible light camera, a harmful gas and virus monitoring sensor, a temperature and humidity sensor, and a communication module to detect sick and dead poultry, effectively solving the problem of reliable detection of sick and dead poultry under obstructed conditions.
[0005] In actual farming practices, playful or fighting behavior among livestock and poultry can increase the proportion of sick animals, and increased aggression itself may be a symptom of disease, requiring close observation and marking. Furthermore, due to the large number of livestock and poultry, using technologies such as RFID for individual identification would significantly increase farming costs; while using pigment marking could lead to problems such as long residue time and marker confusion, affecting the accuracy of continuous tracking. Therefore, how to identify and monitor individual livestock and poultry behavior (especially aggressive and disease-related behaviors) while controlling costs has become a pressing technical challenge in current livestock management. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The core of this invention lies in employing a strategy of first luring and then marking to separate fighting individuals from other farmed animals. Subsequently, a removable marking solution is used to apply to the bodies of the fighting animals, addressing the problems of difficult marking, long-lasting marking residue, and potential confusion in existing technologies. Furthermore, the combination of a separating solution and a suction device allows for forced intervention in fighting behavior, preventing the situation from escalating.
[0007] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.
[0008] A livestock behavior monitoring device for detecting sick animals includes an analysis and control system and a mobile system installed inside a breeding shed. The breeding shed has a sand bath. The mobile system includes an X-axis lead screw rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the breeding shed. A moving block is threaded onto the surface of the X-axis lead screw. A Y-axis lead screw is rotatably connected to the surface of the moving block. A monitoring block is mounted on the surface of the Y-axis lead screw. An infrared camera, a temperature and humidity sensor, a gas sensor, and a light intensity sensor are mounted on the bottom of the monitoring block. A feed storage tank and a marking tank are respectively mounted on the two sides of the monitoring block. The marking tank contains marking liquid, and the bottom of the feed storage tank is connected to a discharge pipe with a control valve mounted on its surface. A dual drive motor is mounted on the inner bottom wall of the marking tank. A support rod is connected to the downward output end of the dual drive motor. A lifting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support rod. A servo motor and an arc-shaped constraint rail with an arc-shaped groove are mounted on the surface of the lifting plate. A small electric actuator is slidably connected to the arc-shaped groove at the output end of the servo motor. A nozzle is connected to the power end of the small electric actuator, and the surface of the nozzle is connected to the inside of the marking tank via a hose.
[0009] Furthermore, the composition of the labeling liquid is as follows: sodium alginate 1%-2%, dye 0.5%-1%, deionized water 94%-97%, glycerin 0.1%-0.5%, wherein the dye is one of food-grade iron oxide red powder and plant pigment.
[0010] Furthermore, the upward output end of the dual drive motor is connected to a stirring rod located inside the marking tank, and multiple stirring blades are installed on the surface of the stirring rod. A waterproof box is installed on the outside of the dual drive motor.
[0011] Furthermore, the inner wall of the breeding chamber is equipped with a No. 1 motor whose output end is connected to one end of the X-axis lead screw, and a No. 2 motor whose output end is connected to one end of the Y-axis lead screw is installed on one side surface of the moving block.
[0012] Furthermore, the analysis and control system includes a data receiving module, a data analysis module, and a drive execution module. The data receiving module is connected to the infrared camera, temperature and humidity sensor, gas sensor, and light intensity sensor to receive the monitored data values and send them to the data analysis module to manage the environmental parameters inside the breeding shed and observe the activities of the livestock. The drive execution module is connected to the motion system, control valve, feed tank, and marking tank to perform the operation of feeding, isolating, and marking livestock when fighting is detected inside the breeding shed.
[0013] Furthermore, a cleaning motor is installed at the bottom of the monitoring block, and a lead screw is connected to the output end of the cleaning motor. The threaded part on the surface of the lead screw is connected to the cleaning block located below the infrared camera, and a guide rod that is slidably connected to the cleaning block is installed at the bottom of the monitoring block.
[0014] Optionally, the marking tank is equipped with a T-shaped waterproof plate, which divides the interior of the marking tank into three independent cavities. Two cavities contain the marking liquid and the isolation liquid, respectively, while the other cavity is used to house the waterproof box and the dual drive motor. Both cavities are equipped with stirring rods and stirring blades. The tail ends of the two stirring rods extend through into the cavity where the dual drive motor is installed. The output end of the dual drive motor is connected to a rotating rod, and the rotating rod and the ends of the two stirring rods are connected by a transmission belt.
[0015] Furthermore, the isolation liquid is a diluted bittering agent, and the surface of the nozzle is equipped with a suction device with a built-in suction port, and the surface of the marking tank is equipped with a small suction pump. The suction device and the small suction pump are connected through a corrugated pipe.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention are: (1) This solution uses a monitoring block that can move in the X and Y directions to conduct panoramic monitoring of the environment and behavior of the farmed animals in the breeding shed, and can use an infrared camera to help identify fighting behavior of the farmed animals. After the fighting behavior is identified, a strategy of first luring away and then marking is adopted to lure the farmed animals away from the area of the fighting animals. Then, the marking liquid is used to mark the body surface of the fighting animals. The marking film can adhere firmly and is breathable and harmless. The marking film can be removed by the farmed animals' natural sand bathing behavior. It is not only efficient, accurate and with little interference, but also can help judge the health status of the animals by the mark retention time.
[0017] (2) If the fighting behavior is detected to continue after visual marking, this scheme can automatically switch the nozzle to spray a safe and diluted bitter agent onto the body surface of the fighting animals in a state of intense fighting. The bitter agent can be perceived by the attacker during mutual pecking, forming a direct negative association, thereby effectively interrupting the intense fighting. The matching suction device can recover the diffused spray and prevent accidental injury. This design can actively strengthen intervention, avoid the escalation of the fighting situation, reduce damage, and avoid an unnecessary increase in the number of sick animals.

[0020] The technical solutions will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Example
[0021] Please see Figures 1-4A livestock behavior monitoring device for detecting sick animals includes an analysis and control system and a mobile system installed inside a breeding shed 1. The breeding shed 1 has a sand bath area. The mobile system includes an X-axis lead screw 2 rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the breeding shed 1. A moving block is threaded onto the surface of the X-axis lead screw 2. A Y-axis lead screw 3 is rotatably connected to the surface of the moving block. A monitoring block 4 is mounted on the surface of the Y-axis lead screw 3. An infrared camera 41, a temperature and humidity sensor 42, a gas sensor 43, and a light intensity sensor 44 are mounted on the bottom of the monitoring block 4. A feed storage tank 6 and a marking tank 5 are respectively mounted on the two sides of the monitoring block 4. The marking tank 5 contains the marking liquid, and the bottom of the storage tank 6 is connected to a discharge pipe with a control valve mounted on its surface. The inner bottom wall of the marking tank 5 is equipped with a dual drive motor 51. The downward output end of the dual drive motor 51 is connected to a support rod 52. The bottom end of the support rod 52 is fixedly connected to a lifting plate 53. The surface of the lifting plate 53 is equipped with a servo motor 54 and an arc-shaped constraint rail 55 with an arc-shaped groove inside. The output end of the servo motor 54 is connected to a small electric actuator 56 that is slidably connected to the arc-shaped groove. The power end of the small electric actuator 56 is connected to a nozzle 57, and the surface of the nozzle 57 is connected to the inside of the marking tank 5 through a hose.
[0022] The composition of the labeling liquid is: sodium alginate 1%-2%, dye 0.5%-1%, deionized water 94%-97%, and glycerin 0.1%-0.5%, wherein the dye is one of food-grade iron oxide red powder and plant pigment.
[0023] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4 The upward output end of the dual drive motor 51 is connected to a stirring rod 12 located inside the marking tank 5, and multiple stirring blades 10 are installed on the surface of the stirring rod 12. A waterproof box is installed on the outside of the dual drive motor 51.
[0024] Please see Figure 2 The inner wall of the breeding chamber 1 is equipped with a No. 1 motor 21 whose output end is connected to one end of the X-axis lead screw 2, and a No. 2 motor 31 whose output end is connected to one end of the Y-axis lead screw 3 is installed on one side surface of the moving block.
[0025] Please see Figure 9 The analysis and control system includes a data receiving module, a data analysis module, and a drive execution module. The data receiving module is connected to the infrared camera 41, temperature and humidity sensor 42, gas sensor 43, and light intensity sensor 44 to receive the monitored data values and send them to the data analysis module to manage the environmental parameters inside the breeding shed 1 and observe the activities of the livestock. The drive execution module is connected to the motion system, control valve, feed tank 6, and marking tank 5 to perform the operation of feeding, isolating, and marking livestock when fighting is detected inside the breeding shed 1.
[0026] Specifically, when monitoring the behavior of farmed animals (chickens are used as an example for ease of explanation), the monitoring block 4 is moved within the space of the farm using the cooperation of motor 21 and motor 31. The infrared camera 41, temperature and humidity sensor 42, gas sensor 43 and light intensity sensor 44 at the bottom of the monitoring block 4 are used to monitor the environment at multiple locations within the farm, achieving comprehensive monitoring within the farm and providing a basis for subsequent adjustments to relevant environmental parameters within the farm.
[0027] When infrared camera 41 detects fighting among the chickens, monitoring block 4 moves closer to the fighting area (hereinafter referred to as the target arrival point for ease of description). When it is close to the target arrival point, it opens the control valve first, causing the feed in the feed tank 6 to fall a certain distance away from the target arrival point. This lures away the chickens that are watching from the target arrival point. This not only facilitates subsequent marking (because the chickens are separated, it can prevent chickens that are not fighting from being marked, which would cause mismarking), but also reduces the possibility of chickens that are about to participate in the fight leaving, thus reducing the possibility of the fighting group expanding.
[0028] After feeding, monitoring block 4 continues to move until it reaches the target location. Then, based on the position of the chickens currently fighting (hereinafter referred to as the target marker), the small electric actuator 56 deflects within the arc-shaped constraint rail 55 using the combined action of dual drive motors 51 and servo motor 54. (Under the output of dual drive motors 51, the arc-shaped constraint rail 55 can rotate in multiple directions, coordinating with the servo motor 54 to achieve multi-angle spraying, such as...) Figure 5 As shown), the small electric actuator 56 then extends a certain distance and activates the nozzle 57 (which is an atomizing nozzle that sprays water mist rather than a water jet to minimize physical impact), spraying the marking liquid in the marking can 5 onto the target object to achieve a brief interference effect and perform a preliminary interruption operation.
[0029] Because the marking solution contains sodium alginate, it can form a soft and tough film when it comes into contact with trace amounts of calcium ions on the feathers (feather dust, air) or after drying. After the film dries, it adheres firmly to the feathers and is not easily blown off by the wind or the chickens' normal activities, forming a conspicuous mark. Moreover, the film formed by sodium alginate is breathable and does not cause any discomfort to the target object, allowing it to adhere better to the target object and achieve a better marking effect.
[0030] In addition, the breeding shed 1 contains a sand bath area. The chickens raised there will take sand baths in the sand bath area almost every day to clean their skin. During the sand cleaning, the sand particles will act like sandpaper, creating continuous and multi-directional friction at the interface between the membrane and the feathers. Because glycerin has been added, the membrane is flexible but not sticky. Under continuous friction, the membrane will be rubbed off from the root of the feathers, gradually curling and peeling off. Therefore, the duration of the marking effect is controlled. Moreover, the shed membrane and pigment are all natural biodegradable or inert substances, which are harmless when mixed in the sand.
[0031] During the period from when the target tagged object is marked until the sand bath marking expires, it is convenient for the breeding staff to enter the breeding pens 1 to find the target tagged object based on the marking, and to conduct detailed inspections to check for external injuries caused by fighting and isolation operations under strong aggression. If the marking film on the target tagged object remains for a long time without external injuries and the aggression is not strong (because healthy chickens will only frequently and actively go to the sand bath), this is also a warning signal that the breeding staff need to pay attention to. The target tagged object's natural behavior is missing and there is a potential health risk.
[0032] When raising livestock and poultry, the large number of animals raised means that using RFID technology for identification would increase the cost of raising them. Therefore, this marking method is adopted. This provides a convenient marking method for farmers and also allows them to analyze the health status of the chickens by checking the time the markings remain.
[0033] When the breeding staff removes the target marked object from breeding pens 1 according to the markings, they analyze the state of the marking film remaining on the object's body surface to determine whether it is the attacker or the attacked object, and mark them separately (a small ribbon can be attached to the chicken's foot, which will not affect the chicken's normal activities when it is released back into the flock). Over a period of time, based on the number of marks on the chicken's feet (each time it is marked, a ribbon is attached or the number is counted on the ribbon), the target marked object with the most marks is selected as the attacker and isolated for breeding to prevent it from bullying other chickens.
[0034] Please see Figure 6 A cleaning motor 9 is installed at the bottom of the monitoring block 4. A lead screw 8 is connected to the output end of the cleaning motor 9. The surface thread of the lead screw 8 is connected to the cleaning block 7 located below the infrared camera 41. A guide rod that is slidably connected to the cleaning block 7 is installed at the bottom of the monitoring block 4.
[0035] Specifically, when monitoring the aquaculture chamber 1 using the infrared camera 41, temperature and humidity sensor 42, gas sensor 43, and light intensity sensor 44 at the bottom of the monitoring block 4, the cleaning block 7 can be moved by the cleaning motor 9 and the lead screw 8 to clean the surfaces of the infrared camera 41, temperature and humidity sensor 42, gas sensor 43, and light intensity sensor 44, thus preventing dirt from affecting the accuracy of the monitoring data. Example
[0036] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The marking tank 5 has a T-shaped waterproof plate 11 installed inside, which divides the interior of the marking tank 5 into three independent cavities. Two cavities contain the marking liquid and the isolation liquid, respectively, and the other cavity is used to house the waterproof box and the dual drive motor 51. Both cavities are equipped with stirring rods 12 and stirring blades 10. The tail ends of the two stirring rods 12 extend through into the cavity where the dual drive motor 51 is installed. The output end of the dual drive motor 51 is connected to a rotating rod, and the rotating rod and the ends of the two stirring rods 12 are connected by a transmission belt 13.
[0037] Please see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The isolation liquid is a diluted bittering agent, and the surface of the nozzle 57 is equipped with a suction component 14 with an internal suction port, and the surface of the marking tank 5 is equipped with a small suction pump 15. The suction component 14 and the small suction pump 15 are connected by a corrugated pipe.
[0038] Specifically, after the marking is completed, monitoring block 4 does not leave the target's arrival location immediately but continues monitoring for a period of time to check whether the marked target is still fighting and how intense the fighting is (head raised and neck erect, especially the feathers on the neck and back are ruffled, wings are slightly spread and pressed down, body center of gravity leans forward, forcefully, quickly, and aiming at the head, crest, and cloaca in a straight line, possibly accompanied by kicking, jumping, flapping, etc., or other criteria can be used to judge). If the fighting stops or is not intense, monitoring block 4 can leave to patrol and monitor other locations. If the fighting continues and is intense, forced interference must be carried out after the marking is completed to prevent the situation from escalating. This embodiment is used to achieve forced interference.
[0039] In this embodiment, there are two stirring components (composed of stirring rod 12 and stirring blade 10) in the marking tank 5. The rotating rod connected to the output end of the dual drive motor 51 and the two stirring rods 12 are connected by a conveyor belt 13, which can drive synchronous stirring and mixing. The two cavities and the nozzle 57 are connected by a hose with branch pipes, and valves are installed on the surface of the two branch pipes.
[0040] To achieve forced interference, a marking operation is required first. After marking, the branch pipe is switched so that the isolation liquid can be transferred through the branch pipe to nozzle 57. The isolation liquid is a diluted bittering agent (cucurbitacin or benzalkonium chloride can be selected) and sprayed onto the target marked object. The liquid is sprayed onto the target marked object (focusing on the head, neck and front back, which are the areas being pecked). When pecking at each other, they will come into contact with the corresponding isolation liquid, which indirectly has a blocking effect, thereby achieving the effect of forced interference interruption.
[0041] After the isolation liquid is sprayed, the monitoring block 4 moves along the perimeter of the target arrival site. At this time, the small suction pump 15 is started, which drives the suction component 14 to absorb the diffused isolation spray, so as to prevent the isolation spray from spreading to unrelated chickens.
[0042] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention; it encompasses all the protection scope of the present invention. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solutions and improved concepts of the present invention, should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention.
