Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of animal husbandry, relates to veterinary instruments, and specifically relates to a device for collecting physiological information of dairy cows. Background Art

[0002] Automated physiological monitoring is the future development direction of dairy farming industrialization, which will transform the traditional dairy cow model into a precise farming management model centered on information networks. Wearable device technology can obtain animal life information in real time. It can be used in dairy farming to effectively monitor the health index of dairy cows and prevent the occurrence of diseases and epidemics, which can significantly improve the production efficiency and economic benefits of farming. The existing cow head wearable device is mainly composed of the device body and sensor wire rods. The internal structure of the device is composed of sensors, main control circuit boards and data transmission modules, and is mostly used to monitor the blood oxygen saturation of dairy cows.

[0003] This type of equipment operates continuously in the harsh environment of the cattle farm. The detection parts and data processing boxes are not waterproof and are easily damaged by water after long-term use. The detection parts fit firmly inside the upper part of the cow's nostrils for monitoring, which can damage the cow's nasal cavity, cause stress, and affect production efficiency. At the same time, battery replacement is extremely inconvenient, requiring the small slider to be opened, which is difficult for cattle farm workers to operate while wearing gloves. In addition, the battery capacity is small and cannot meet the needs of long-term continuous use. Summary of the invention

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a device for collecting physiological information of dairy cows in view of the problems in the prior art.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A device for collecting physiological information of dairy cows, comprising a body module, a connecting seat connected to the body module, the connecting seat being provided with a first electrical interface; a fixing seat connected to the connecting seat, a first connecting wire rod and a second connecting wire rod arranged on the fixing seat, a temperature sensor arranged at the end of the first connecting wire rod, and a heart rate sensor arranged at the end of the second connecting wire rod; the temperature sensor and the heart rate sensor are electrically connected to the first electrical interface respectively; further comprising a main control module connected to the body module, the main control module being provided with a second electrical interface docking with the first electrical interface, and further comprising a data charging interface arranged on the main control module; a main control circuit board electrically connected to the second electrical interface and the data charging interface is arranged inside the main control module, and a rechargeable battery electrically connected to the main circuit board is also arranged inside the main control module.

[0007] A first connecting wire rod and a second connecting wire rod are arranged on the fixing seat, and a temperature sensor is arranged at the end of the first connecting wire rod, and a heart rate sensor is arranged at the end of the second connecting wire rod.

Therefore, it can be ensured that the shaft tube does not rotate any more, thereby achieving the function of fixing the position of the shaft tube.

[0014] Preferably, the temperature sensor and the heart rate sensor are wrapped with a waterproof cover.

[0015] The waterproof cover can ensure that the temperature sensor and heart rate sensor will not be damaged due to contact with water. For example, when livestock drink water, the temperature sensor and heart rate sensor will be immersed in the pool, and the waterproof cover can play a good protective role.

[0016] Preferably, the first electrical interface is a concave magnetic suction port, and the second electrical interface is a convex magnetic suction port plugged into the concave magnetic suction port.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a cow physiological information collection device includes a body module 7, a connecting base 5 connected to the body module 7, a first electrical interface 9 is provided on the connecting base 5; a fixing base 4 connected to the connecting base 5, a first connecting wire rod 1 and a second connecting wire rod 12 arranged on the fixing base 4, a temperature sensor 2 arranged at the end of the first connecting wire rod 1, and a heart rate sensor 3 arranged at the end of the second connecting wire rod 12; the temperature sensor 2 and the heart rate sensor 3 are electrically connected to the first electrical interface 9 respectively; also includes a main control module 6 connected to the body module 7, a second electrical interface 10 connected to the first electrical interface 9 is provided on the main control module 6, and also includes a data charging interface 11 arranged on the main control module 6; a main control circuit board electrically connected to the second electrical interface 10 and the data charging interface 11 is provided inside the main control module 6, and a rechargeable battery electrically connected to the main circuit board is also provided inside the main control module 6.

[0033] A first connecting wire rod 1 and a second connecting wire rod 12 are arranged on the fixing seat 4, and a temperature sensor 2 is arranged at the end of the first connecting wire rod 1, and a heart rate sensor 3 is arranged at the end of the second connecting wire rod 12. The two sensors do not contact the nose of the cow, and are a suspended structure. Such a structure will not make the livestock feel uncomfortable and will not affect their normal life. At the same time, the life information of the livestock can be accurately monitored in real time.

[0034] The second electrical interface 10 is provided on the main control module 6. The main control module 6 is a separate module structure and can be connected and disassembled with the connection socket 5 at any time, which is convenient for equipment replacement. Since a rechargeable battery is provided in the main control module 6, when the main control module 6 is out of power, it is sufficient to disassemble and replace a new main control module 6 without disassembling the entire equipment on the livestock, which is convenient for operation and maintenance.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first connecting wire rod 1 and the second connecting wire rod 12 are metal shaped tubes with a hollow interior.

[0036] The metal shaping tube can be set to a bending shape as needed, and different structures can be matched according to different livestock, which is flexible and convenient to use. The metal shaping tube can be selected with a larger damping to avoid collision and deformation during use. The metal shaping tube is a detachable connection structure with the temperature sensor 2 and the heart rate sensor 3, which is convenient for replacing the temperature sensor 2 and the heart rate sensor 3.

[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first connecting wire rod 1 and the second connecting wire rod 12 are respectively fixedly connected to an axle tube rotatably mounted on a fixing seat 4 .

[0038] The shaft tube can rotate relative to the fixed seat 4, and is a hollow structure that can be used for routing. The first connecting wire rod 1 and the second connecting wire rod 12 can rotate relative to the fixed seat 4, and this is also to adjust the matching angle of the first connecting wire rod 1 and the second connecting wire rod 12. The main function of the shaft tube is to adjust the position relative to the fixed seat 4, so that the first connecting wire rod 1 and the second connecting wire rod 12 can be adjusted in more ways when matching the position of the livestock's nostrils, making it easier to accurately locate the position of the temperature sensor 2 and the heart rate sensor 3, thereby obtaining more accurate real-time measurement data.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, a spring sheet is fixed on the shaft tube, and a clamping groove is provided at a peripheral position of the fixing seat 4 around the shaft tube, and the spring sheet is elastically clamped with the clamping groove.

[0040] A spring piece is arranged on the shaft tube, and a slot is arranged on the fixing seat 4. When the shaft tube rotates, the spring piece is driven to move, and the spring piece passes through a plurality of slots arranged on the fixing seat 4. When the position needs to be positioned, the spring piece is embedded in the slot and is no longer subjected to rotational force. Therefore, it can be ensured that the shaft tube does not rotate any more, thereby achieving the function of fixing the position of the shaft tube.

[0041] The shaft tube can rotate relative to the fixing seat 4, so the rotation must be controllable. The function of the spring sheet is to fix the direction of the shaft tube, and the function of the slot is to lock the position of the spring sheet. When the spring sheet is not subjected to force, it can be stably fixed in the slot. When the spring sheet is subjected to too much force, it will break away from the original slot and continue to move until it moves to a position that meets the setting and stops.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, the temperature sensor 2 and the heart rate sensor 3 are wrapped with a waterproof cover.

[0043] The waterproof cover can ensure that the temperature sensor 2 and the heart rate sensor 3 will not be damaged due to contact with water. For example, when livestock drink water, the temperature sensor 2 and the heart rate sensor 3 will be immersed in the pool, and the waterproof cover can play a good protective role. The waterproof cover can be a sealed plastic cavity or a waterproof silicone material, which can prevent moisture from entering the sensor.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first electrical interface 9 is a concave magnetic suction port, and the second electrical interface 10 is a convex magnetic suction port plugged into the concave magnetic suction port.

[0045] The concave magnetic suction port and the convex magnetic suction port can automatically adsorb when they are close to achieve precise docking, and the magnetic suction port can avoid the problem of misalignment during manual insertion and will not fall off easily. After the concave magnetic suction port attracts the convex magnetic suction port, the convex magnetic suction port is fully inserted into the concave magnetic suction port. This connection structure can ensure that they will not easily detach from each other. The magnetic suction function is set, and under the action of the magnetic suction force, the connection between the concave magnetic suction port and the convex magnetic suction port is more stable, and it is easier to replace when disassembled.

[0046] In one embodiment of the present invention, a silicone waterproof sleeve is sleeved on the circumference of the concave magnetic suction port.

[0047] A silicone waterproof sleeve is sleeved on the circumference of the concave magnetic suction port, so that the waterproof effect of the docking position can be guaranteed after the concave magnetic suction port and the convex magnetic suction port are docked.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, a waterproof cover is provided outside the data charging interface 11 .

[0049] The purpose of providing a waterproof cover outside the data charging interface 11 is also to prevent contact with water when not in use, thereby preventing the device from short circuiting or being corroded by water.

[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, a guide rail 8 is provided on the fuselage module 7 , and a guide groove matching with the guide rail 8 is provided at the bottom of the main control module 6 .

[0051] The guide rail 8 can guide the splicing process of the main control module 6 to avoid inaccurate docking. The guide groove of the main control module 6 is plugged into the guide rail, making the main control module 6 easy to plug in. Under the guidance of the guide rail 8, the plugging and disassembly path is controllable, and the installation process is more accurate and quick.

[0052] In one embodiment of the present invention, the cross section of the guide rail 8 perpendicular to the length direction is L-shaped.

[0053] The guide rail 8 has an L-shaped cross section, and the top of the guide rail 8 is hooked outward, so that the main control module 6 will not fall off after being plugged into the guide rail 8. The L-shaped guide rail 8, through the outward flap structure at the top, prevents the main control module 6 from being separated from the fuselage module 7 in the longitudinal direction, thereby making the main control module 6 more stable in the working state.

[0054] The utility model provides a collection device for the physiological information of dairy cows, and the collection device has significant advantages. It is composed of a fuselage, a collection device, and a main control module 6. The main control module 6 is connected to the slide rail of the fuselage, which is stable and convenient, making assembly more efficient. The main control module 6 slides into the fuselage and is connected to the collection module by a concave and convex magnetic seat, which is tightly prevented from loosening. At the same time, it is extremely waterproof and does not require screws to tighten, which improves assembly efficiency. The main control module 6 integrates the battery with the mainboard, and can quickly locate and repair in case of failure, reducing downtime and ensuring continuous collection. The structure is reasonable, and the reliability and life are greatly increased.
