Please refer to Figures 1-6, including a bottom plate 1, a connecting shaft 2, a connecting shell 3, a protective shell 4, a rotating shaft 5, a conveyor belt 6, a support frame 7, a rotating rod 8, a bevel gear set 9, a driving motor 10, a mileage detector 11, an electric slide rail I 12, an electric slider I 13, an electric slide rail II 14, an electric slider II 15, a guide rail 16, a sliding clamping rod 1601, a support rod 30, and a touch screen 31. The connecting shaft 2 is rotatably arranged on the bottom plate 1. The connecting shell 3 is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 2. Protective shells 4 are fixedly connected to both the front and rear sides of the connecting shell 3. Two rotating shafts 5 are rotatably arranged inside the connecting shell 3. A conveyor belt 6 is arranged on the two rotating shafts 5 together. Support frames 7 are arranged on both the left and right sides of the connecting shell 3 by means of bolt connection. A rotating rod 8 is rotatably arranged on the support frame 7. Two sets of bevel gear sets 9 are arranged on the rotating rod 8 and the rotating shaft 5 together. The driving motor 10 is arranged on the right side of the connecting shell 3 by means of bolt connection. The output shaft of the driving motor 10 is connected to the right rotating shaft 5 through a coupling. The mileage detector 11 is arranged on the left side of the protective shell 4 by means of bolt connection. The left rotating shaft 5 is connected to the mileage detector 11. Four electric slide rails I 12 are arranged on the connecting shell 3. Electric sliders I 13 are slidably arranged on the electric slide rails I 12. An electric slide rail II 14 is arranged on two vertically aligned electric sliders I 13 together. Electric sliders II 15 are slidably arranged on the electric slide rail II 14. A guide rail 16 is arranged on the two electric sliders II 15 together. Two sliding clamping rods 1601 are slidably arranged on the guide rail 16. The support rod 30 is arranged on the front side of the connecting shell 3 by means of bolt connection. The touch screen 31 is arranged on the support rod 30 by means of bolt connection. A connecting rod 17 is fixedly connected to the sliding clamping rod 1601. A power supply box 18 is arranged on the inner side of the connecting rod 17. A power generation ring 19 is connected to the power supply box 18. The power generation ring 19 is embedded in the sliding clamping rod 1601. The touch screen 31 is electrically connected to the driving motor 10, the mileage detector 11, the electric slide rail I 12, the electric slide rail II 14, the servo motor 22, the power supply box 18, and the power generation ring 19. By operating the touch screen 31, the rotation speed of the driving motor 10 can also be adjusted. Two baffle plates 28 are placed on the conveyor belt 6. When the device is not needed, the baffle plates 28 are placed on the conveyor belt 6 to block the gap between the protective shell 4 and the conveyor belt 6 to prevent foreign objects from entering the gap. Two counterweight blocks 29 are placed on the bottom plate 1 to prevent the bottom plate 1 from moving.

[0026] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the driving motor 10 adopts closed-loop feedback control, with high control precision and strong real-time performance. Its speed control range is 0 - 100 m / min, and the precision reaches 0.01 m / min.

[0027] When it is necessary to train an animal, turn on the touch screen 31, and operate the touch screen 31 to start the electric slide rail I 12 and the electric slide rail II 14. The operation of the electric slide rail I 12 causes the electric slider I 13 to move up and down, thereby driving the electric slide rail II 14 to move up and down. The operation of the electric slide rail II 14 causes the electric slider II 15 to move back and forth, thereby driving the guide rail 16 to move back and forth, so as to realize the multi-directional adjustment of the sliding clamping rod 1601. Then, manually push the sliding clamping rod 1601 outwards to open it, then place the animal's neck between the two sliding clamping rods 1601, and then push the sliding clamping rod 1601 in the reverse direction to close it and fix the animal's neck. Then, start the drive motor 10 and the mileage detector 11 by operating the touch screen 31. The output shaft of the drive motor 10 rotates to drive the right rotating rod 8 to rotate, and then drives the rotating shaft 5 to rotate through the bevel gear set 9, so that the conveyor belt 6 operates to train the animal. At the same time, the rotation of the rotating shaft 5 drives the left rotating rod 8 to rotate through the bevel gear set 9, so that the mileage detector 11 accurately measures the moving distance of the animal, and the measured data is displayed on the touch screen 31. When the conveyor belt 6 is operating, the number of electric shock times of the power generation ring 19 can be set through the touch screen 31, so that the power generation ring 19 gives an electric shock to the animal; through this unique structural design, the animal can move independently and freely experiment under restraint, thereby improving the training effect. When the animal completes the predetermined training volume, stop the training and record various data.

[0028] Among them, the power generation ring 19 is a stimulation method with adjustable direct current constant current, and the stimulation range is 0-20 mA, with a step of 0.05 mA.

[0030] The adopted servo motor 22 has a control accuracy of 1 / 115200, a response speed of 1 ms, and a noise less than 30 db.

[0031] When it is necessary to adjust the angle of the device, start the servo motor 22 through the touch screen 31. The output shaft of the servo motor 22 rotates to drive the worm 23. Due to the meshing effect between the worm 23 and the worm wheel 21, the worm wheel 21 rotates accordingly, and then drives the connecting shaft 2 to rotate, so as to realize the adjustment of the device angle to meet different use requirements. When the device is adjusted to the required angle, the servo motor 22 should be turned off; by controlling the rotation of the worm 23, the inclination angle of the device can be adjusted by ±25°.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 On the electric slider II 15, a support plate 24 is provided by means of bolt connection. Two support plates 24 are rotatably provided with a bidirectional screw 25 together. The bidirectional screw 25 is threadedly connected to the sliding clamping rod 1601. At both the left and right ends of the bidirectional screw 25, a crank 26 is provided. A rubber sleeve 27 is sleeved on the crank 26. The rubber sleeve 27 reduces the pressure between the hand and the crank 26 and increases the comfort of the hand.
