Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of breeding, in particular to an ear tag capable of indicating the body temperature of pigs. Background Technique
[0002] In modern pig breeding, health monitoring is a key link to maintain efficient production. As an important indicator of the health status, continuous monitoring of the body temperature of pigs is crucial for the early prevention of diseases and the improvement of breeding efficiency. However, traditional body temperature measurement methods require approaching the pigs and then manually measuring each one, and only after the measurement can the body temperature of the pigs be known. It is not available during the pen inspection process in large-scale farms, and it is impossible to clearly see the body temperature status of pigs at a glance. And individual temperature measurement based on fixed sensors requires installing sensors on the body of each pig, which has problems such as high investment and power limitation and cannot be used for a long time, and its actual availability is not strong either. The above methods not only consume a lot of manpower and time, but may also cause stress reactions in pigs due to frequent manual intervention, which in turn has an adverse impact on their growth and production performance.
[0003] Therefore, how to quickly realize the real-time visual monitoring of the body temperature of pigs without increasing the stress of pigs has become an urgent problem to be solved in modern animal husbandry. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides an ear tag capable of indicating the body temperature of pigs, including a male tag and a female tag. Both the male tag and the female tag are made of TPU waterproof material. The male tag includes a male tag base and a male tag nail arranged at the center of the male tag base. The male tag base is set as a circular structure; the cross-section of the female tag is circular and a through hole is opened at the center. The female tag includes a temperature indicating layer, a chip layer is arranged on the top of the temperature indicating layer, a laser printing layer is arranged on the top of the chip layer, and a fixing layer is arranged on the top of the laser printing layer. The male tag base and the male tag nail are set as an integral structure.
[0006] Preferably, the male tag nail is vertically arranged at the center of the male tag base, and a coating layer is sleeved outside the male tag nail. The coating layer is made of plastic material.
[0007] Preferably, a male tag fixing buckle is arranged inside the fixing layer, and the male tag fixing buckle is installed inside the fixing layer through a buckle fixing sleeve.
[0008] Preferably, the chip layer is set as an RFID chip layer and an RFID chip is arranged inside it.
[0009] Preferably, the temperature indicating layer includes a temperature sensing component, and the temperature sensing component is specifically a temperature indicating piece.
[0010] Therefore, the ear tag for indicating the body temperature of pigs with the above structure according to the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0011] (1) Through the arranged temperature indicating layer, the body temperature of pigs can be warned. According to the body temperature data of pigs, it is displayed in different colors, which will not cause stress reactions in pigs and solves the problem of body temperature monitoring.

[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0029] As Figures 1-9As shown in the figure, an ear tag capable of indicating the body temperature of pigs includes a male tag 1 and a female tag 4. Both the male tag 1 and the female tag 4 are made of TPU waterproof material. The male tag 1 includes a male tag base 3 and a male tag staple 2 provided at the center of the male tag base 3. The male tag base 3 is set as a circular structure; the cross-section of the female tag 4 is circular, and a through hole is provided in the center. The female tag 4 includes a temperature indicating layer 8. The temperature indicating layer 8 has various specifications, and different specifications have different sizes, temperature change thresholds, and temperature change colors; the temperature indicating layer 8 of the ear tag can be replaced, and by replacing the temperature indicating layer 8, the size, temperature change warning threshold, and temperature change color of the temperature indicating layer 8 can be adjusted to meet the diverse breeding needs; the temperature indicating layer 8 includes a temperature sensing component, specifically a temperature indicating sheet that is relatively mature in the existing technology. It can display different colors with the change of temperature, and the temperature change threshold of this material can be modulated. In this embodiment, according to the pig body temperature data, the temperature change threshold is adjusted to 39°C. When the temperature is less than 39°C, the temperature indicating layer 8 shows blue, and when the temperature is greater than 39°C, the color of the temperature indicating layer 8 changes to white; and this material has the ability of high sensitivity and rapid response to temperature changes, ensuring that it can accurately and timely reflect the subtle changes in the body temperature of pigs. At the same time, this temperature-sensitive color-changing thermosensitive material has good weather resistance and corrosion resistance to meet the requirements of different breeding environments and ensure the stability and reliability of long-term use. A chip layer is provided at the top of the temperature indicating layer 8. The chip layer is set as an RFID chip layer 6, and an RFID chip is provided inside it; a laser printing layer 5 is provided at the top of the chip layer, and pig identification information such as ear numbers or two-dimensional codes can be laser-printed; a fixing layer 7 is provided at the top of the laser printing layer 5. A male tag fixing buckle is provided inside the fixing layer 7. The male tag fixing buckle is installed inside the fixing layer 7 through a buckle fixing sleeve. The male tag fixing buckle is used to lock the male tag staple 2 in the through hole of the female tag 4.
[0030] The male tag base 3 and the male tag staple 2 are set as an integral structure. The male tag staple 2 is vertically provided at the center of the male tag base 3, and a coating layer is sleeved around the male tag staple 2. The coating layer is made of plastic material.
[0031] When in specific use: First, select a temperature indicating layer 8 suitable for the pig's specifications according to the actual pig breeds (including boars, sows, fattening pigs, etc.), pig colors, etc.; then, fix the pig tag, clean and disinfect the pig ear, and soak the male tag 1 in alcohol for a period of time for disinfection treatment; then, install the male tag 1 and the target into the buckles of the ear tag pliers respectively, hold the pig ear with the ear tag pliers, press the ear tag pliers forcefully, and the male tag fixing buckle of the female tag 4 will lock the male tag 1; finally, check the fitting effect of the temperature indicating layer 8 and the pig ear to ensure that the temperature indicating layer 8 fits onto the pig ear.
[0032] Therefore, the ear tag for indicating the body temperature of pigs with the above structure is adopted in the utility model. The structural design is simple. Through the characteristic that the temperature indicating layer displays different colors with the change of temperature, early warning of the change of the body temperature of pigs is carried out. It is compatible with traditional ear tags and does not affect the existing production, and has strong practicability.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model and not to limit them. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify or equivalently replace the technical solutions of the present utility model, and these modifications or equivalent replacements cannot make the modified technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present utility model.
