Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of intelligent collars, and particularly relates to an intelligent collar for measuring the body temperature of cattle. Background Art

[0002] In the livestock industry, continuously monitoring the health status of cattle is a key link to ensure the health and production efficiency of the herd. Among them, the body temperature of cattle is one of the important indicators reflecting its health status. Therefore, there are various devices on the market for monitoring the body temperature of cattle, and one of them is the intelligent collar. This intelligent collar can collect and transmit the body temperature data of cattle in real time, providing important reference information for veterinarians and managers.

[0003] However, with the continuous enhancement of the functions of intelligent collars, there are more and more electrical components inside them. These components will generate a large amount of heat when working. Especially in the hot summer, if effective heat dissipation cannot be achieved, the temperature inside the intelligent collar will rise rapidly, which will affect the performance of electrical components and even cause component failures. This not only affects the accuracy and reliability of the intelligent collar, but also may pose a potential threat to the health of cattle.

[0004] Traditional heat dissipation methods usually require additional power to drive heat dissipation devices such as fans or heat sinks. However, for a device like an intelligent collar that needs to be worn on a cow for a long time, increasing the additional power consumption will not only increase the power consumption and cost of the collar, but also may affect the battery life and service life of the collar. In addition, the additional heat dissipation device may also increase the volume and weight of the collar, reducing its comfort and portability.

[0005] For this reason, we propose an intelligent collar for measuring the body temperature of cattle. This device utilizes the power of natural wind to achieve ventilation and heat dissipation without additional power, so it will not increase the power consumption and cost of the collar. At the same time, due to the relatively simple structure, it will not significantly increase the volume and weight of the collar, thus ensuring the comfort and portability of the collar. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an intelligent collar for measuring the body temperature of cattle. This device utilizes the power of natural wind to achieve ventilation and heat dissipation without additional power, so it will not increase the power consumption and cost of the collar. At the same time, due to the relatively simple structure, it will not significantly increase the volume and weight of the collar, thus ensuring the comfort and portability of the collar.

[0007] The technical solutions adopted by this utility model are specifically as follows:

[0008] An intelligent collar for measuring the temperature of cattle, comprising a collar body. The collar body includes a strap and a housing connected to the strap. A temperature sensor is provided on the housing. The temperature sensor is connected to a controller disposed inside the housing. Two through holes are formed in the housing, and a heat dissipation component is installed on the through holes.

[0009] The heat dissipation component includes a fixing ring installed on the housing corresponding to the position of the through hole. A plurality of fan blades are rotatably disposed inside the fixing ring. Each fan blade has a certain angle for air circulation, and a sealing cover is provided at the top of the plurality of fan blades.

[0010] Further, a groove is formed in the housing, and the temperature sensor is located inside the groove.

[0011] Further, mounting holes are provided on the outer side of the fixing ring, and bolts are provided inside the mounting holes.

[0012] Further, the diameter of the fixing ring is larger than the diameter of the through hole.

[0013] Further, an anti-corrosion layer is provided on the fan blades.

[0014] Further, ventilation holes are provided on the housing, and filter nets are provided on the ventilation holes.

[0015] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:

[0016] First, the housing is sleeved on the cow's neck through the strap. At this time, the housing is located on the side of the cow's neck. Then, the temperature of the cow is detected by the temperature sensor, and the temperature data is transmitted to the controller for temperature detection. At the same time, because the intelligent temperature measuring collar is always in an energized state during operation. For example, in hot summer, the internal electrical components are in a high-temperature state, which affects their performance due to the high temperature and may even cause electrical component failures. Therefore, in this utility model, through the power of natural wind, the fan blades with a certain angle rotate on the inner wall of the fixing ring, generating a certain suction force, so that the heat inside the housing is discharged from the position of the through hole, thus achieving the effect of heat dissipation. This device utilizes the power of natural wind and can achieve ventilation and heat dissipation without additional power, so it will not increase the power consumption and cost of the collar. At the same time, due to the relatively simple structure, it will not significantly increase the volume and weight of the collar, thus ensuring the comfort and portability of the collar.

[0025] In order to make the purpose and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the following specifically describes the present utility model in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text only describes one or several specific implementation manners of the present utility model, and does not strictly limit the scope of protection of the specific claims of the present utility model.

[0026] As Figures 1-6 shown, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is specifically as follows: An intelligent collar for measuring the temperature of cattle, including a collar body 1, the collar body 1 includes a housing 2 connected to the straps 12, a temperature sensor 3 is provided on the housing 2, the temperature sensor 3 is connected to a controller 4 provided inside the housing 2, and two through holes 5 are provided on the housing 2, and a heat dissipation component is installed on the through holes 5;

[0027] The heat dissipation component includes a fixed ring 6 installed on the housing 2 corresponding to the position of the through hole 5, a plurality of fan blades 7 are rotatably arranged inside the fixed ring 6, each fan blade 7 has a certain angle for air circulation, and a sealing cover 8 is provided on the top of the plurality of fan blades 7.

[0028] Its working principle is as follows: First, the housing 2 is put on the neck of the cow by the strap 12. At this time, the housing 2 is located on the side of the cow's neck. Then, the temperature of the cow is detected by the temperature sensor 3, and the temperature data is transmitted to the controller 4 for temperature detection. At the same time, because the intelligent temperature-measuring collar is always in an energized state during operation. For example, in the hot summer, the internal electrical components are in a high-temperature state, which affects their performance due to the high temperature and may even cause electrical component failures. Therefore, in this utility model, by the power of natural wind, the fan blades 7 at a certain angle rotate on the inner wall of the fixed ring 6, generating a certain suction force, so that the heat inside the housing 2 is discharged from the position of the through hole 5, thus achieving the effect of heat dissipation. This device utilizes the power of natural wind and can achieve ventilation and heat dissipation without additional power, so it will not increase the power consumption and cost of the collar. At the same time, because the structure of the wind cap without power is relatively simple, it will not significantly increase the volume and weight of the collar, thus ensuring the comfort and portability of the collar.

[0029] Among them, in order to prevent the temperature sensor 3 from being damaged due to some reasons (such as impact, collision) when it fits with the cow's neck, a groove 9 is provided on the housing 2, and the temperature sensor 3 is located inside the groove 9. This setting can prevent the temperature sensor 3 from being damaged.

[0030] At the same time, mounting holes 10 are provided on the outer side of the fixed ring 6, and bolts are provided inside the mounting holes 10. The fixed ring 6 is connected to the housing 2 through the bolts, facilitating the installation and disassembly of the heat dissipation component.

[0031] The diameter of the fixed ring 6 is larger than the diameter of the through hole 5. This setting can not only enable the installation of the fixed ring 6 but also generate a seal, thereby increasing the suction force.

[0032] It should be noted that: The angle of the fan blades 7 can refer to the angle of the fan blades 7 of the wind cap without power in the prior art, which belongs to the prior art and will not be elaborated here.

[0033] An anti-corrosion layer is provided on the fan blades 7. Through the anti-corrosion layer, the fan blades 7 can be prevented from rusting, improving the service life of the fan blades 7.

[0034] This utility model is applicable to hot weather, such as summer. If it is winter, the heat dissipation component can be disassembled, and then the through hole 5 can be sealed.

[0035] Ventilation holes 11 are provided on the housing 2 to allow gas to flow through. A filter screen is provided on the ventilation holes 11 to prevent dust from entering the inside of the housing 2.

[0036] Inside the housing 2, there are a controller 4 chip, a battery module, and a communication module.

[0037] Controller 4 chip:

[0038] Working principle: The controller 4 chip is the core of the intelligent collar, responsible for receiving signals from the temperature sensor 3 and processing these signals according to preset programs or algorithms. The processed data or instructions are then sent to other modules, such as the communication module, to achieve corresponding functions. Function: The controller 4 chip is also responsible for controlling the energy management of the battery module to ensure efficient use of power and coordinating data transmission of the communication module. Battery module: Composition: The battery module usually consists of multiple battery cells and achieves the required voltage and capacity through specific connection methods. It provides power for the entire system to ensure that components such as the controller 4 chip, communication module, and temperature sensor 3 can work properly.

[0039] Energy management: The battery module may also include a protection circuit to ensure the safe use of the battery and prevent overcharging, over-discharging, etc.

[0040] Communication module:

[0041] Working principle: The communication module is responsible for transmitting data from the intelligent collar to external devices, such as a mobile phone APP terminal. It may use wireless communication technologies, such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or specific wireless frequency bands.

[0042] Data transmission: Once receiving the data sent by the controller 4 chip, the communication module encodes it into a format suitable for wireless transmission and sends it out through a wireless signal.

[0043] Receiving and sending: At the receiving end, such as a mobile phone APP, there will be a corresponding receiver to receive these signals and decode them into readable data.

[0044] After the temperature sensor 3 detects the temperature, it sends this signal to the controller 4 chip. The controller 4 chip processes this signal according to preset logic or algorithms and may send instructions to other modules as needed. If it is necessary to report this temperature data to the user, the controller 4 chip sends the data to the communication module, and the communication module then sends this data in the form of a wireless signal to the user's mobile phone APP terminal.

[0045] Among them, the model of the temperature sensor 3 is the MLX90614 infrared temperature sensor, the model of the controller 4 chip is the MCU (microcontroller 4) in the prior art, and the communication module is a 4G communication module.

[0046] What can be selected is: In order to ensure the long battery life of the battery module, a solar panel can be selected for charging. Multi-battery charging belongs to the prior art, such as a cattle temperature measurement and positioning collar described in Chinese Patent CN219679491U. It includes a housing, a short rope sleeve, a solar panel, and a drive motor. There is a through hole 5 in the upper part of the housing, a deep V-shaped groove 9 on the side, and a motor mounting hole 10 in the upper left part. There is a drive motor in the motor mounting hole 10. A gear is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the deep V-shaped groove 9. A worm is installed on the drive motor shaft, and a pinion gear that cooperates with the worm is provided at the top of the gear. The solar panel is fixed on the solar panel base; one side of the solar panel base is fixedly connected to one end of the short rope sleeve, and the other side is fixedly connected to a long rope sleeve; teeth are provided at one end of the long rope sleeve away from the solar panel base; the other end of the short rope sleeve is fixedly connected to the side of the housing away from the circuit box; the toothed end of the long rope sleeve is inserted into the deep V-shaped groove 9, and the teeth cooperate with the gear. The device can realize the functions of automatic temperature measurement, positioning, smooth adjustment of the collar circumference, and the solar panel continuously facing the sky without significant deviation.

[0047] It can charge the battery by setting a solar panel, which can ensure the long battery life effect and belongs to the prior art, so no more details will be described here.

[0048] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the housing 2 is put on the cow's neck through the strap 12. At this time, the housing 2 is located on the side of the cow's neck. Then, the temperature sensor 3 is used to detect the temperature of the cow, and the temperature data is transmitted to the controller 4 for temperature detection. At the same time, because the intelligent temperature measurement collar is always in an energized state during operation, for example, in the hot summer, the internal electrical components are in a high-temperature state, which affects the performance due to the high temperature and even causes electrical component failures. Therefore, in this utility model, through the power of natural wind, the fan blades 7 at a certain angle rotate on the inner wall of the fixed ring 6, generating a certain suction force, so that the heat inside the housing 2 is discharged from the position of the through hole 5, thus achieving the heat dissipation effect. This device utilizes the power of natural wind to achieve ventilation and heat dissipation without additional power, so it will not increase the power consumption and cost of the collar. At the same time, due to the relatively simple structure, it will not significantly increase the volume and weight of the collar, thus ensuring the comfort and portability of the collar.

[0049] The above are only the preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of this utility model, several improvements and refinements can be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of this utility model. The structures, devices, and operation methods not specifically described and explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specifically stated and limited, are implemented according to the conventional means in the art.
