Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of animal breeding, in particular to a rumen fluid collecting integrated device. Background Art

[0002] At present, animal feed and nutrition analysis or other professions may need to collect rumen fluid. Usually, it takes more than 6 or 7 people to collect rumen fluid from a sheep half the height of a person. It may even cause injuries to people due to the stress reaction of the sheep, such as sheep butting or kicking. It is divided into the following stages:

[0003] 1. Fix the sheep's head and oral opening;

[0004] 2. Insert a rubber tube with a telescopic iron wall into the sheep's rumen for extraction;

[0005] 3. Connect the tube to the extraction device;

[0006] 4. Extraction using a large syringe that is extremely laborious
