[0023] When implementing: Figure 1-4 As shown, a sheep weighing partition door comprises: a support plate 1, baffles 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the support plate 1, support legs 3 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the support plate 1, a control panel 5 is provided on the top of one of the baffles 2, two driving mechanisms 6 are provided on one side of the baffle 2, a first partition door 7 is provided on the top of the support plate 1, an extrusion plate 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the first partition door 7, a second partition door 10 is provided on the top of the support plate 1 located on one side of the first partition door 7, a closing mechanism 11 is provided on the top of one of the baffles 2 located on one side of the second partition door 10, a weighing device 12 is provided on the top of the support plate 1 between the second partition door 10 and the closing mechanism 11; a limiting mechanism 13, the limiting mechanism 13 is provided on one side of one of the baffles 2; wherein the limiting mechanism 13 comprises an air cylinder 1301 fixedly connected to one side of one of the baffles 2, an extrusion rod 1303 is inserted on one side of the air cylinder 1301, and one end of the extrusion rod 1303 is located at The piston 1304 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the air cylinder 1301, and the other end of the extrusion rod 1303 is fixedly connected to the corresponding plate 1307. The surface of the air cylinder 1301 is connected to the first air outlet pipe 1308, and the surface of the air cylinder 1301 is located below the first air outlet pipe 1308 and is connected to the second air outlet pipe 1309. One end of the first air outlet pipe 1308 and the second air outlet pipe 1309 are both connected to the air bag 1310. The bottom of the air bag 1310 is connected to the top of the support plate 1. Contact, the surface of the air cylinder 1301 is fixedly connected with a positioning ring 1302, one end of the positioning ring 1302 is fixedly connected to one side of one of the baffles 2, the surface of the piston 1304 is fixedly connected with a protrusion 1305, the surface of the protrusion 1305 is slidingly connected to the inner cavity of the air cylinder 1301, the inner cavity of the air cylinder 1301 is symmetrically fixedly connected with a limiting plate 1306, and the surface of the airbag 1310 is provided with a protective shell 1311, and the material of the protective shell 1311 is silicone.

[0024] First, open the first partition door 7 and the second partition door 10 at the same time, drive the first sheep into the weighing chamber, close the second partition door 10, and then drive the second sheep into the preparation chamber. Then, multiple sheep wait in and outside the waiting chamber. When the weighing of the first sheep is completed, the outlet is opened through the closing mechanism 11 to release the first sheep. Then, open the second partition door 10, and the second sheep in the preparation chamber enters the weighing chamber. Then open the first partition door 7 and put a sheep in the waiting chamber into the preparation chamber. When the first partition door 7 is half opened, the squeezing plate 8 squeezes the corresponding plate 1307 and the squeezing rod 1303, and then the first partition door 7 continues to move. Then, the piston 1304 is driven to squeeze the air in the air cylinder 1301 into the first air outlet pipe 1308 and the second air outlet pipe 1309 respectively, and the air is injected into the two air bags 1310 through the first air outlet pipe 1308 and the second air outlet pipe 1309, so that the air bags 1310 become larger. When the first partition door 7 is not fully opened, the sheep in the waiting chamber enters the preparatory chamber, and then the air bags 1310 expand to block the entrance, preventing the two sheep from entering between the first partition door 7 and the second partition door 10, or preventing extra sheep from blocking the moving area of ​​the first partition door 7, causing the first partition door 7 to be unable to close, thereby improving the weighing efficiency.

[0025] By means of teeth fixedly connected to the inner cavities of the first partition door 7 and the second partition door 10, and then through the motor, drive rod and gear arranged on one side of one of the baffles 2 in the drive mechanism 6, the first partition door 7 and the second partition door 10 can be driven to close and open through the cooperation of the gears and teeth. The above are all devices with relatively mature application in existing technologies. The specific models can be selected according to actual needs and will not be elaborated here.

When the output shaft of the servo motor rotates forward, it drives the rotating shaft to rotate, and then drives the exit door to flip outward, that is, to open the exit door. Conversely, it closes the exit door. The above are all devices with relatively mature applications in existing technologies. The specific models can be selected according to actual needs and will not be described here.

[0027] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the support plate 1 is fixedly connected to the guide plates 4 on both sides away from the baffle 2, the top of the guide plates 4 is set at an angle, and the bottom of the extrusion plate 8 is symmetrically fixedly connected to two limit blocks 9, and the surface of the limit blocks 9 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the support plate 1.

When the weighing of the first sheep is completed, the outlet is opened by the closing mechanism 11 to release the first sheep, and then the second partition door 10 is opened, and the second sheep in the preparation chamber enters the weighing chamber, and then the first partition door 7 is opened, and a sheep in the waiting chamber is put into the preparation chamber. When the first partition door 7 is half opened, the squeezing plate 8 squeezes the corresponding plate 1307 and the squeezing rod 1303, and then the first partition door 7 is opened. Continue to move, and then drive the piston 1304 to squeeze the air in the air cylinder 1301 into the first air outlet pipe 1308 and the second air outlet pipe 1309 respectively, and inject the air into the two air bags 1310 through the first air outlet pipe 1308 and the second air outlet pipe 1309, so that the air bags 1310 become larger. When the first partition door 7 is not fully opened, the sheep in the waiting chamber enters the preparation chamber, and then the air bags 1310 expand to block the entrance, preventing the two sheep from entering between the first partition door 7 and the second partition door 10, or preventing extra sheep from blocking the moving area of ​​the first partition door 7, causing the first partition door 7 to be unable to close, thereby improving the weighing efficiency.

[0029] It should be noted that the control panel 5, drive mechanism 6, closing mechanism 11, weighing device 12 and airbag 1310 in the above description are all devices with relatively mature application of existing technologies. The specific models can be selected according to actual needs. At the same time, the control panel 5, drive mechanism 6, closing mechanism 11 and weighing device 12 can be powered by a built-in power supply or by AC power. The specific power supply method is selected according to the situation and will not be elaborated here.

[0030] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described in terms of implementation methods, not every implementation method contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative method of the specification is only for the sake of clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
