[0030] A collection component 11 is provided inside the waterproof housing 5, and the collection component 11 is used to collect the opening and closing time of the cattle neck clamp;

[0031] The collection component 11 includes a main board 12, a signal amplification circuit 13, a filtering circuit 14, a shaping circuit 15, a gravity acceleration sensor 16, a microprocessor 17, a storage module 18, a wireless communication module 19, an antenna 20 and a connection slot 2 at the bottom mounting plate 1.

[0032] The gravity acceleration sensor 16 is usually connected to the main board 12 through a flexible printed circuit (FPC) cable or lead wire. The FPC cable has the characteristics of being thin, light and bendable, and can adapt to the internal space layout of the collector. The output pins of the sensor are connected to the corresponding input pins on the main board 12 through the FPC cable or lead wire. These pins usually include power supply pins (VCC and GND), data output pins (such as data pins of I2C or SPI interfaces) and clock pins (such as clock pins of I2C or SPI interfaces). The power management circuit on the main board 12 provides a stable power supply for the sensor, and the power supply pins are connected to the power supply lines on the main board 12 to ensure that the sensor can work normally. The data output pins and clock pins are connected to the microprocessor 17 on the main board 12, which is responsible for receiving the digital signals output by the sensor and performing subsequent processing and analysis.

[0033] The signal amplification circuit 13 can be built using integrated circuit chips or discrete components. Its connection method with the main board 12 is as follows: the input pin of the amplification circuit is connected to the output pin of the acceleration sensor 16 or the signal output terminal after the filtering circuit 14, so that the weak voltage signal output by the sensor can be received and amplified. The output pin of the amplification circuit is connected to the input pin of the filtering circuit 14 on the main board 12 or directly connected to the input pin of the shaping circuit 15. The amplified signal will be further processed to improve the quality and stability of the signal.

[0034] The filtering circuit 14 can be composed of passive components such as capacitors and inductors or integrated filter chips. The input pin of the filtering circuit 14 is connected to the output pin of the signal amplification circuit 13 or the output pin of the acceleration sensor 16 (if there is no amplification circuit), so that the signal to be filtered can be received. The output pin of the filtering circuit 14 is connected to the input pin of the shaping circuit 15 or directly connected to the input pin of the microprocessor 17 (if the shaping circuit 15 is not required). The signal after filtering will be transmitted to the subsequent circuit for further processing.

[0035] The shaping circuit 15 is usually composed of devices such as comparators and is used to shape the amplified and filtered analog signal into a standard digital signal. The input pin of the shaping circuit 15 is connected to the output pin of the filtering circuit 14 or directly connected to the output pin of the signal amplification circuit 13 (if there is no filtering circuit 14), so that the signal to be shaped can be received. The output pin of the shaping circuit 15 is connected to the input pin of the microprocessor 17 or directly connected to the input pin of the storage module 18 (if further processing by the microprocessor 17 is not required). The shaped digital signal will be transmitted to the subsequent circuit for storage, processing, or transmission.

[0036] The microprocessor 17 is the core control unit of the collector and is responsible for functions such as data processing, control, and communication. The input pin of the microprocessor 17 is connected to the output pin of the shaping circuit 15 or directly connected to the output pin of the storage module 18 (if the shaping circuit 15 is not required), so that the digital signal from the sensor can be received and data processing and analysis can be performed. The output pin of the microprocessor 17 is connected to the input pin of the storage module 18, the input pin of the wireless communication module 19, or the control pins of other peripheral devices. Through these output pins, the microprocessor 17 can control the read and write operations of the storage module 18, the sending and receiving of the wireless communication module 19, and the working states of other peripheral devices. The power pin of the microprocessor 17 is connected to the power supply line on the main board 12, and a stable power supply is usually provided by the power management circuit. In addition, the microprocessor 17 may also need to be connected to peripheral circuits such as a clock source and a reset circuit to ensure its normal operation.

[0037] The storage module 18 can adopt memories such as flash chips and EEPROM. The input pins of the storage module 18 are connected to the output pins of the microprocessor 17 or directly connected to the output pins of the sensor (if the microprocessor 17 is not required for processing), so that it can receive the data to be stored. The output pins of the storage module 18 are connected to the input pins of the microprocessor 17 or directly connected to the input pins of the wireless communication module 19 (if the stored data needs to be sent out). Through these output pins, the storage module 18 can transmit the stored data to the microprocessor 17 for further processing or send it to the cloud server through the wireless communication module 19. The power pins of the storage module 18 are connected to the power line on the main board 12 to ensure its normal operation.

[0038] The wireless communication module 19 can adopt wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and GPRS. The input pins of the wireless communication module 19 are connected to the output pins of the microprocessor 17 or directly connected to the output pins of the storage module 18 (if the microprocessor 17 is not required for processing), so that it can receive the data to be sent. The output pins of the wireless communication module 19 are connected to the input pins of the microprocessor 17 or directly connected to the input pins of the antenna 20 (if the microprocessor 17 is not required for receiving processing). Through these output pins, the wireless communication module 19 can transmit the received data to the microprocessor 17 for processing or directly send it to the antenna 20 for transmission. The power pins of the wireless communication module 19 are connected to the power line on the main board 12 to ensure its normal operation. In addition, the wireless communication module 19 may also need to be connected to peripheral circuits such as the antenna 20 and the clock source to implement the wireless communication function.

[0039] The antenna 20 is used for transmitting and receiving wireless signals. The input pins of the antenna 20 are connected to the output pins of the wireless communication module 19, so that it can receive the electrical signals sent by the wireless communication module 19 and convert them into electromagnetic wave signals for transmission. The output pins of the antenna 20 are connected to the input pins of the wireless communication module 19, so that it can receive the electromagnetic wave signals from the outside and convert them into electrical signals for input to the wireless communication module 19.

[0040] The antenna 20 is usually connected to the main board 12 by means of a radio frequency connector or welding. When connecting, attention needs to be paid to the impedance matching and signal transmission quality of the antenna 20 to ensure the stability and reliability of wireless communication.

[0041] A number of connection slots 2 are provided on both sides of the top of the bottom mounting plate 1. The number of connection slots 2 can be connected to the bull neck clip through a number of connecting pieces, and the connecting pieces can be steel wires.

The signal amplification circuit 13 is used to amplify the voltage signal output by the gravitational acceleration sensor 16. The filtering circuit 14 is used to remove high-frequency noise and interference in the signal to improve the signal quality. The shaping circuit 15 is used to shape the signal into a standard digital signal for the microprocessor 17 to process.

[0046] The microprocessor 17 is used to receive the digital signal from the shaping circuit 15 and perform data processing and analysis. The storage module 18 is used to temporarily store the collected data to prevent data loss in case of wireless communication failure.
