[0018] Figure 2 This is a schematic structural diagram of the marking assembly in the ear tag forceps for livestock and veterinary use provided by an embodiment of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0020] like Figure 1As shown, the utility model provides an ear tag pliers for animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, comprising a first pliers body 100, a second pliers body 200, an elastic member, a marking assembly 300 and a controller 400. The first pliers body 100 and the second pliers body 200 are rotatably connected via the elastic member. The first pliers body 100 and the second pliers body 200 are located on one side of the rotating part to form a control end. The first pliers body 100 and the second pliers body 200 are located on the other side of the rotating part to form a clamping end and a marking part arranged in sequence away from the rotating part. The elastic member is used to drive the two clamping ends to be close to each other. When the two control ends move away from each other, the two clamping ends move away from each other. The marking assembly 300 is installed on the two control ends for marking an object located between the two control ends. The controller 400 includes a switch 410 and a wire 420. The switch 410 is electrically connected to the marking assembly 300 via the wire 420 to control the action of the marking assembly 300.

[0021] The two clamping parts are driven to move away from each other by the control end until the animal's ear is located between the two clamping parts. Under the action of the elastic member, the two clamping parts move relative to each other until the animal's ear is clamped. At this time, the position of the ear tag clamp is adjusted so that the marking component 300 is facing the marking position of the animal's ear. Finally, the marking component 300 is controlled to start the marking operation through the switch 410. Since the ear tag clamp does not need to be held in the above process, no external force is applied to the ear tag clamp after the animal is stimulated, thereby avoiding tearing of the animal's ear. At the same time, there is no need to fix the animal's head, saving time and effort. Remote marking can also prevent large animals from overreacting and injuring operators.

[0022] In this embodiment, the first clamp body 100 and the second clamp body 200 form a fork-shaped clamp body structure. It is understandable that the clamp body structure can be any shape that can be imagined by those skilled in the art.

[0023] In one embodiment, the first clamp body 100 is divided into a first operating portion 110 , a first rotating portion 120 , a first clamping portion 130 and a first marking portion 140 along its length.

[0024] The second clamp body 200 is divided into a second operating portion 210 , a second rotating portion 220 , a second clamping portion 230 and a second marking portion 240 along its length direction.

[0025] Among them, the first operating part 110 and the second operating part 210 form a operating end, the first rotating part 120 and the second rotating part 220 are rotatably connected via an elastic member, the first clamping part 130 and the second clamping part 230 form a clamping end and a clamping gap is formed therebetween, the first marking part 140 and the second marking part 240 form a marking end and a marking gap is formed therebetween, and the clamping gap is larger than the marking gap setting.

[0026] Among them, the first rotating part 120 is two circular rings arranged opposite to each other, and the second rotating part 220 is a cylinder. The two circular rings are connected via the first operating part 110 and the second operating part 210 located on both sides thereof. The two ends of the cylinder extend into the two circular rings respectively and are rotatably connected to the circular rings. The elastic part is a torsion spring, which is sleeved on the cylinder. One end of the torsion spring is connected to the cylinder, and the other end of the torsion spring is connected to the circular ring.

[0027] The first operating portion 110 , the first clamping portion 130 , the first marking portion 140 , the second operating portion 210 , the second clamping portion 230 and the second marking portion 240 are all in the shape of a flat plate.

[0028] When the torsion spring is in a natural state, an acute angle is formed between the first operating portion 110 and the second operating portion 210 , the first clamping portion 130 and the second clamping portion 230 are arranged parallel to each other, and the first marking portion 140 and the second marking portion 240 are arranged parallel to each other.

[0029] In order to enable the first clamping portion 130 and the second clamping portion 230 to effectively clamp the animal's ear, in one embodiment, the ear tag clamp further includes a rubber pad 131 fixedly disposed on opposite sides of the first clamping portion 130 and the second clamping portion 230 .

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, the marking assembly 300 in this embodiment includes a driving member 310, a connecting pin 320 and an elastic pressing piece 330. The driving member 310 is installed on the first marking part 140. The output end of the driving member 310 is connected to the connecting pin 320. The connecting pin 320 is arranged opposite to the through hole 241 opened on the second marking part 240. The aperture of the through hole 241 is larger than the diameter of the connecting pin 320. The elastic pressing piece 330 is arranged on the side of the second marking part 240 close to the first marking part 140. One side of the elastic pressing piece 330 is connected to the second marking part 240. An adjustable fixed gap is formed between the elastic pressing piece 330 and the second marking part 240. The driving member 310 is electrically connected to the switch 410 via the wire 420.

[0031] The male label is put on the connecting pin 320, and the elastic pressing piece 330 presses the female label on the second marking part 240. The driving member 310 drives the connecting pin 320 (male label) to pass through the female label, thereby completing the marking process.

[0032] In one embodiment, the driving member 310 is a cylinder. Of course, in other embodiments, a linear motor or other structure can also be used to achieve this.

[0033] It can be understood that the controller 400 in this embodiment is a structure in which the switch of the cylinder is extended to a position away from the ear tag clamp through the wire 420 .

[0034] Compared with the prior art: the two clamping parts are driven to move away from each other by the control end until the animal's ear is located between the two clamping parts. Under the action of the elastic part, the two clamping parts move relative to each other until the animal's ear is clamped. At this time, the position of the ear tag clamp is adjusted so that the marking component 300 is facing the marking position of the animal's ear. Finally, the marking component 300 is controlled to start through the switch 410 to perform the marking operation. Since the ear tag clamp does not need to be held in the above process, no external force will be applied to the ear tag clamp after the animal is stimulated, thereby avoiding tearing of the animal's ear. At the same time, there is no need to fix the animal's head, saving time and effort. Remote marking can also prevent large animals from overreacting and injuring operators.

[0035] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with this technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
