Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of livestock breeding equipment, and more specifically, to a handheld pig measurement terminal. Background Art

[0002] In the field of live pig breeding, it is necessary to always master the weight of pigs during their growth. In the past, the weight of pigs was estimated relying on the experience of breeders. This method of weight estimation depends heavily on experienced breeders. During the period of rapid expansion of pig farms, most breeders have little experience, and there are large errors in manual weight estimation. Relying on pig scales can measure the true weight of pigs, but the operation is troublesome, time-consuming and laborious, the weighing efficiency is low, and it is easy to scare the pigs, which is not conducive to the normal growth and development of pigs.

[0003] If the weight of pigs cannot be accurately estimated during the growth process, the growth situation of pigs cannot be understood, and the feeding system cannot be guided to provide corresponding feed better. When selling fattening pigs, if the weight of pigs cannot be accurately estimated, selling pigs with unqualified weight segments will cause great economic losses to the company.

[0004] In the prior art, there are devices for measuring the weight of pigs using the graphical estimation method, which are divided into fixed and handheld types. Among them, the fixed structure is relatively bulky, and it is necessary to drive the pigs to a specific position for measurement, which is time-consuming and laborious. While the handheld type requires re-designing its internal electrical components, with high costs and long cycles, and the stability of the device remains to be verified.

[0005] In summary, how to provide a handheld pig measurement terminal that can solve the problems of time-consuming, laborious, high equipment cost, long development cycle, and poor stability during the process of measuring and estimating the weight of pigs is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art at present.
