[0025] The following is a further detailed description of the implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0026] Example:

[0027] As attached Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 6 As shown:

[0028] The utility model provides a LORA Internet of Things livestock asset locator, including a mounting shell 11, and a mounting cavity 12 is opened on one side of the mounting shell 11. A LORA positioning component is arranged in the mounting cavity 12, and the LORA positioning component includes a positioning module 21. The positioning module 21 can select the Beidou positioning module of the Yabo Intelligent brand. Through the setting of the positioning module 21, when the locator is used, the coordinate position of the livestock can be obtained in real time through the positioning module 21, which can well solve the problem that traditional livestock positioning relies on manual observation and recording, and manual observation and recording require a lot of time and energy. The use of the locator can make it more convenient for farm managers to understand the real-time position of each livestock, which is conducive to improving management efficiency; multiple groups of positioning columns 13 are arranged at the bottom of the mounting cavity 12, and through holes are correspondingly opened at the four corners of the positioning module 21. These through holes are fixedly connected with the multiple groups of positioning columns 13 by multiple groups of screws, so that the positioning module 21 is firmly installed inside the locator. In addition, a fixing component is also arranged on the back of the mounting shell 11, which can help firmly install the entire locator on the livestock to prevent the locator from loosening or being damaged during use.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in addition to the positioning module 21, the LORA positioning component also includes a LORA wireless module 22. The LORA wireless module 22 can be a LORA module of the L32_433UD22S model of the Tashi brand. The bottom of the installation cavity 12 is fixedly connected with the LORA wireless module 22 by multiple sets of screws. The LORA wireless module 22 is electrically connected to the positioning module 21, which allows the positioning information to be uploaded through the LORA wireless module 22; the advantage of using LORA technology to upload positioning information is that managers can view the real-time location of livestock through the LORA network, which is conducive to breeders to timely grasp the status of each livestock, such as whether the location is abnormal, etc. If the livestock is lost or lost, the manager can also quickly search and take countermeasures through the positioning information, which can greatly reduce the safety risk of livestock being lost or lost.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, a through hole is opened on one side of the mounting shell 11, and one end of the LORA transmission antenna 23 passes through the through hole to be connected to the LORA wireless module 22. A mounting seat 24 is arranged at the bottom of the mounting cavity 12, and the LORA transmission antenna 23 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 24 by screws to ensure the fixity of the antenna; through the setting of the LORA transmission antenna 23, the transmission range of the LORA signal can be effectively expanded. Compared with the transmission relying only on the built-in antenna, the external antenna is not restricted by the mounting shell 11, and can better receive and send the LORA signal, which means that when the livestock are moving or the environment is complex, the management personnel can also obtain their real-time location information more widely.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 5 As shown, a power supply mounting seat 25 is also provided at the bottom of the mounting cavity 12, and two groups of replaceable batteries 26 are provided in the battery cavity of the power supply mounting seat 25. A detachable cover plate 27 is buckled on one side of the power supply mounting seat 25, and operation protrusions 28 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the cover plate 27, which also makes it easier for users to use their fingers to unscrew and install or replace the battery. The power supply mounting seat 25 is connected to the positioning module 21 through wires to provide continuous and stable power support for the operation of the positioning module 21.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in order to reliably install the LORA livestock asset locator on the livestock, the fixing component includes two sets of fixing belts 31, and the two sets of fixing belts 31 are respectively connected to the connecting pieces 32 on both sides of the mounting shell 11. The setting of the connecting pieces 32 enables the two sets of fixing belts 31 to be fixed on both sides of the mounting shell 11. The two sets of fixing belts 31 form a closed loop. The user only needs to put this closed loop on the neck of the livestock, and then use the elasticity of the fixing belts 31 to fix the entire locator on the livestock well. Due to the design of the double set of fixing belts 31, not only can the weight of the locator be evenly shared, but it can also be locked on the livestock more firmly and reliably. Even when the livestock is active or disturbed by the outside world, the locator is not easy to loosen.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, one group of fixing belts 31 is evenly provided with multiple groups of fixing holes 33, and the other group of fixing belts 31 is provided with a fixing head 34, and the fixing head 34 is provided with a fixing column 35, and the fixing column 35 can be inserted into one group of fixing holes 33. Through the setting of the fixing head 34 and the multiple groups of fixing holes 33, the user only needs to select appropriate fixing holes 33 according to the neck size of the livestock, and fix them through the fixing column 35, so as to quickly adjust the length and tightness between the two groups of fixing belts 31, so as to ensure that the locator is firmly put on the neck of livestock of different sizes, and also greatly improve the convenience of installation and disassembly.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 2As shown, a closing plate 14 is provided at the opening of the installation cavity 12, a groove is provided on one side of the installation shell 11, and a sealing ring 15 is provided in the groove, so that the locator has a good sealing effect, and effectively prevents external dust or moisture factors from entering the installation cavity 12 through the opening, causing moisture damage to the internal circuit board and battery and other components of the locator; the protection capability of the locator is improved, and its long-term stable operation in a complex pasture environment is effectively guaranteed, thereby improving stability.

[0035] The embodiments of the present invention are provided for the purpose of illustration and description, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the present invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. The embodiments are selected and described to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention, and to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present invention and thereby design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific uses.
