Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of animal husbandry, in particular to an adjustable restraint frame for measuring the body size of geese. Background Art

[0002] In breeding, animal production indicators are particularly important. Production indicators are used to evaluate individuals and families for selection and breeding. One of the most commonly used and important measurement indicators should be body size. When measuring geese, geese often struggle, flap their wings, and twist their bodies, which affects the normal measurement of body size. It is often necessary for one person to restrain the goose to prevent it from struggling, and then another person to cooperate in the measurement before the measurement can be carried out normally. During the measurement, manual restraint of geese will make it more difficult to measure indicators such as weight, size, head and neck size, and body size because geese are larger than other poultry such as chickens and ducks. The measurement work cannot be carried out with quality and efficiency. In addition, factors of the restraint personnel themselves will also affect the measurement work. For example, insufficient restraint force will affect the measurement work and increase the workload.

[0003] During the measurement process, the restraining personnel often lack the necessary control, causing stress or even injury to the geese. Furthermore, the geese excrete feces during the measurement process, contaminating the workbench and the personnel's clothing, hindering the measurement process. Furthermore, the lack of standardized measurement standards and techniques during the measurement process leads to large errors and inaccurate results. Due to the large and long wings and dense feathers of geese, there is currently no suitable device that can effectively secure the geese without interfering with the measurement.

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, this measuring device is designed to reduce manpower consumption, avoid stress injuries to geese, increase the stability of the restraint work, and increase the accuracy of measurement. After a single person fixes the goose, the measurement can be carried out by operating the mechanical platform. Utility Model Content

[0027] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention; it is obvious that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments, and all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] Example

[0029] See also Figures 1 to 2 A body measurement and adjustable restraining frame for geese includes a base 1, a weight sensor 4 is provided on the base 1, and the weight sensor 4 is electrically connected to a data acquisition device 5. Figure 1In actual operation, the weight sensor 4 is used to measure the weight parameters of the goose, and the data is collected and stored by the data acquisition device 5. In addition, in order to facilitate the movement of the restraint frame, a plurality of universal wheels 16 are also provided at the lower end of the base 1.

[0030] In this embodiment, the upper end surface of the weight sensor 4 is respectively provided with a feces collection component and a fixing component, wherein the feces collection component includes two limit rods 2 vertically fixed on the weight sensor 4 and a weighing plate 3 slidably connected to the above-mentioned limit rods 2 through a slide groove and a slider.

[0031] Since geese may produce feces due to stress during the restraint process, the feces will flow on the ordinary plate surface, thereby contaminating the operating space and equipment. Therefore, in this embodiment, a plurality of grooves 31 are provided on the upper end of the weighing plate 3. The grooves 31 are used to temporarily collect feces produced by the geese due to stress during the restraint process, thereby preventing the feces from contaminating the weight sensor 4.

[0032] In order to facilitate the disassembly of the weighing plate 3, in this embodiment, the above-mentioned slide groove is a dovetail groove structure, and the upper end is set through, so that the sliders on both sides of the weighing plate 3 can be detachably slid in the dovetail groove. After the fixing is completed, the weighing plate can be removed from the limit rod and cleaned, and can be reinstalled when fixing next time.

[0033] In this embodiment, the fixing assembly includes a neck fastening assembly, a wing fastening assembly and a shin fastening assembly; the weight sensor 4 is respectively fixed with a first vertical pole 7 and a second vertical pole 8, wherein the first vertical pole 7 is used to fix the wing fastening assembly and the shin fastening assembly, and the second vertical pole 8 is used to fix the shin fastening assembly; the heights of the first vertical pole 7 and the second vertical pole 8 can be set according to actual work needs. If necessary, the first vertical pole 7 and the second vertical pole 8 can be selected as telescopic poles.

[0034] Specifically, the neck fastening assembly includes a first fixing rod 9, which is slidably connected to the first vertical rod 7. A fixing ring 10 is provided at the end of the first fixing rod 9, and the goose's neck can be fixed to the fixing ring 10 by a binding belt.

[0035] The wing fastening assembly includes a second fixing rod 11, which is slidably connected to the first vertical rod 7, and a clamping block 12 is provided at the end of the second fixing rod 11; since the goose's wings struggle greatly during the measurement process, too thin binding straps may cause damage to the wings, and at the same time, they cannot be fixed too tightly. Therefore, a wider and elastic binding strap is usually selected for fixation. In this embodiment, a limiting groove 17 is formed on the second fixing rod 11, and the limiting groove 17 is used to prevent the wide binding strap from moving on the second fixing rod 11.

[0036] The shin fastening assembly includes a third fixing rod 13 and a fourth fixing rod 14, wherein the third fixing rod 13 is slidably connected to the second vertical rod 8, and the fourth fixing rod 14 is slidably connected to the first vertical rod 7; the ends of the third fixing rod 13 and the fourth fixing rod 14 are both provided with fixing clips 15, which are used to clamp the legs of the goose. In order to avoid damage to the legs of the goose, in this embodiment, a silicone pad is provided on the inner wall of the fixing clip 15.

[0037] It is understood that fixing and locking devices are provided between the first fixing rod 9, the second fixing rod 10, the third fixing rod 13, and the fourth fixing rod 14 and the first upright pole 7 and the second upright pole 8 to facilitate position adjustment and fixation. In this embodiment, the first fixing rod 9, the second fixing rod 10, the third fixing rod 13, and the fourth fixing rod 14 are fixed to the first upright pole 7 and the second upright pole 8 via sliding sleeves and retaining bolts. A person can secure the fixing rods to the upright poles by tightening the retaining bolts.

[0038] The first fixing rod 9, the second fixing rod 10, the third fixing rod 13 and the fourth fixing rod 14 are all telescopic rods so as to adapt to different types of geese.

[0039] In order to facilitate the direct measurement of body size after the goose is fixed, in this embodiment, a tool box (not shown in the figure) is also provided on the base 1. A plurality of partitions can be provided in the tool box for placing different body size measurement tools.

[0040] In actual work, the guarding personnel places the goose on the weight sensor 4, fixes the goose's neck through the neck fastening component, fixes the goose's wings through the wing fastening component, and fixes the goose's legs through the shin fastening components; at this time, the goose is completely fixed, the weight of the goose is measured through the weight sensor 4, and the goose's weight data is collected and processed through the data acquisition device 5; after obtaining the goose's weight data, the guarding personnel takes out the body size measurement tool in the tool box to measure the goose's body size. The tool is simple and convenient to use and can be used to measure geese of different sizes. The original workload of two people in the measurement work can be completed by one person, reducing the number of workers, reducing the labor cost in the goose measurement work, and increasing the accuracy of the measurement.

[0041] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the weight sensor reading = goose weight + feces collection component weight + fixed component weight. Therefore, in order to accurately weigh the goose, the feces collection component weight and the fixed component weight need to be weighed before the restraint frame is installed, so that the goose weight value can be directly obtained during data processing, that is: goose weight = weight sensor reading - feces collection component weight - fixed component weight.

[0042] The above is a novel implementation method for this experiment, capable of measuring goose growth indicators such as weight, sarcoma, head and neck dimensions, and body measurements. This represents an improvement over traditional measurement methods, offering greater convenience and lower labor costs. The device can be further modified to accommodate a wider range of scenarios, such as device size, strap size, properties, and material. The weighing platform and automatic measurement device are connected to a computer, and measurement results are displayed directly on the computer. The device can be modified based on actual needs without changing its basic design.

[0043] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
