Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tag reading, in particular to an animal tag high-efficiency reading device based on RFID technology. Background Art

[0002] On large-scale ranches, farmers need to differentiate between individual livestock for precise management. RFID animal tags are attached to the ears or necks of cattle, sheep, pigs, and other livestock, allowing for rapid identification of each animal through efficient reading devices. For example, during daily feeding, a reading device is installed at the entrance of the feeding lane. As livestock pass through, the tag information is automatically read, recording data such as each animal's feeding time and food intake. This helps adjust feed formulas based on each animal's growth status, achieving precise feeding and improving farming efficiency.

[0003] Some existing reader devices include an RF signal transmitter module. This module generates RF signals of a specific frequency, typically operating in the low-frequency, high-frequency, or ultra-high-frequency bands. For example, in some livestock farming scenarios, high-frequency bands are commonly used for close-range reading. The transmitter module transmits the generated RF signal through an antenna.

[0004] However, if the reader's position cannot be adjusted during use, its reading range will be fixed to a specific area. For example, in large livestock farms, where livestock move around a wide range, many "blind spots" will appear if the reader's position cannot be adjusted according to the livestock's movement routes and gathering areas. Therefore, to address the above issues, a highly efficient animal tag reading device based on RFID technology is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The present invention provides an embodiment of an efficient animal tag reading device based on RFID technology, comprising a connecting plate 1. The connecting plate 1 serves as the basic connecting component of the entire device and is typically made of a sturdy and high-quality metal material, such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel.

It also reduces the weight of the entire device to a certain extent, making it easier to carry and operate. An adjustment mechanism is fixedly connected to the top right side of the outer side of the connecting plate 1. A fixing rod 12 is fixedly connected to the outer right side of the connecting plate 1. The fixing rod 12 serves as a component connecting the fixing plate 13 and the sliding block 14. The fixing rod 12 is typically made of metal, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy, and has high strength and rigidity. It can stably support the fixing plate 13 and the reader 11, ensuring that the device does not wobble or deform during use. The fixing plate 13 is fixedly connected to the outer right side of the fixing rod 12. The fixing plate 13 serves as the installation base and auxiliary support component for the reader 11 and is typically made of a metal plate, such as steel or aluminum plate, and has a certain strength and rigidity. The outside of the fixed rod 12 is slidably connected to a sliding block 14. The sliding block 14 is a component that connects the reader 11 and the fixed rod 12. The material of the sliding block 14 is generally metal, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy, which has certain strength and wear resistance.

[0034] The stainless steel sliding block 14 has good corrosion resistance and surface finish, and can slide stably on the fixed rod 12 without causing wear or corrosion to the fixed rod 12. The bottom of the sliding block 14 is fixedly connected to the reader 11. The reader 11 is the core component of the device. It integrates an advanced RFID reading technology module and can transmit radio frequency signals of a specific frequency to communicate with the RFID tag on the animal and read the information stored in the tag, such as the animal's breed, age, health status, breeding history, etc. The bottom end of the reader 11 is fixedly connected to the monitor 18. The monitor 18 is a component for detecting the working status of the reader 11 and the surrounding environment. It integrates a variety of sensors such as temperature sensors, humidity sensors, signal strength sensors, etc. The reader 11 is fixedly connected to the outside of the anti-collision mechanism. The anti-collision mechanism can effectively protect the reader 11 from collision damage and ensure its normal operation in complex usage environments. The anti-collision mechanism includes a telescopic rod 2 15. The telescopic rod 2 15 is a component that provides buffering and support. Its material is generally metal, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy.

[0035] The stainless steel telescopic rod 15 has excellent corrosion resistance and strength, allowing it to operate stably outside the reader 11 without deformation or damage due to environmental factors or external forces. A spring 16 is mounted on the outside of the telescopic rod 15. Made of high-quality spring steel, its elastic modulus is precisely calculated and designed based on factors such as the required cushioning force, collision energy, and recovery requirements of the reader 11, ensuring it provides appropriate cushioning support for the reader 11 in various collision scenarios. The surface of the spring 16 is typically treated with special treatments, such as phosphating or galvanizing. This not only effectively improves its corrosion resistance and extends its service life, but also creates a smoother surface, reducing friction between the telescopic rod 15 and other components, ensuring smooth spring 16 extension and retraction. A crash shield 17 is fixedly attached to the outside of the telescopic rod 15. As the component directly exposed to collisions, the crash shield 17 is typically made of a material with excellent elasticity and impact resistance, such as rubber or polyurethane. The rubber anti-collision shell 17 has high elasticity and resilience, and can effectively absorb and disperse the impact force during a collision, protecting the reader 11 from damage; the outer portion of the telescopic rod 15 is fixedly connected to the outer portion of the reader 11;

[0036] The adjustment mechanism includes a fixed frame 2, which serves as a structural member supporting and connecting other adjustment components. It is typically made of metal, such as angle steel or channel steel, and has excellent compression and bending resistance. It stably supports components such as the fixed shaft 3 and rotating plate 4, ensuring no shaking or deformation during adjustment. Fixed shaft 3 is internally fixedly connected to fixed frame 2. Fixed shaft 3 serves as the rotating axis of rotating plate 4 and is typically made of metal, such as stainless steel or alloy steel, offering high strength and rigidity. The stainless steel fixed shaft 3 has excellent corrosion resistance and surface finish, ensuring stable operation in various environmental conditions without causing wear or corrosion to the rotating plate 4 in contact with it. Externally, fixed shaft 3 is rotatably connected to rotating plate 4, which serves as the transmission component connecting fixed shaft 3 and clamping rod 8. It is typically made of sheet metal or metal rod, offering sufficient strength and flexibility. A rebound assembly is fixedly connected to the top of fixed frame 2. This rebound assembly includes telescopic rod 1 5, which provides telescopic function and support and is typically made of metal, such as stainless steel or aluminum alloy. The stainless steel telescopic rod 5 has good corrosion resistance and strength, can work stably on the top of the fixed frame 2, and will not be deformed or damaged due to environmental factors or external forces;

[0037] The exterior of telescopic rod 1 (5) is sheathed with spring 1 (6), which provides both elastic force and reset in the rebound assembly. Made of high-quality spring steel, spring 1 (6) has a precisely calculated and designed elastic coefficient based on factors such as the required rebound force, adjustment force, and reset requirements for rotating plate 4, ensuring optimal elastic support for rotating plate 4 under various operating conditions. The exterior of telescopic rod 1 (5) is fixedly connected to the exterior of fixed frame 2. A clamping rod 8 is also fixedly connected to the exterior of rotating plate 4. Clamping rod 8, which cooperates with stopper rod 9 on sliding plate 10 to achieve angle locking, is typically made of metal, such as stainless steel or alloy steel, offering high strength and rigidity. Stainless steel clamping rod 8 has excellent corrosion resistance and a smooth surface finish, ensuring stable operation in a variety of environments without causing wear or corrosion to stopper rod 9. A pull plate 7 is also fixedly connected to the exterior of clamping rod 8. This pull plate 7 facilitates user operation of clamping rod 8 and is typically made of sheet metal or plastic, offering sufficient strength and grip. The right side of the outer portion of the connecting plate 1 is slidably connected to a sliding plate 10. The sliding plate 10 is a component connecting the limit rod 9 and the reader 11. The sliding plate 10 is generally made of metal, such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel, and has a certain strength and wear resistance.

[0038] The sliding plate 10 is externally slidably connected to a limit rod 9, which cooperates with the clamping rod 8 to prevent it from disengaging. The limit rod 9 is generally made of metal, such as stainless steel or alloy steel, and has high strength and rigidity. The external fixing frame 2 is fixedly connected to the right side of the external portion of the connecting plate 1, allowing the adjustment mechanism to be securely mounted on the connecting plate 1. During use of the device, the clamping rod 8 is disengaged from the limit rod 9 by pulling the pull plate 7, and then the rotating plate 4 is rotated to adjust the position of the reader 11. After the adjustment is complete, the pull plate 7 is released, and the clamping rod 8 re-engages with the limit rod 9 under the action of the spring 16, enabling rapid and precise adjustment and locking of the angle of the reader 11 to meet the requirements of reading different animal tags.

[0039] Reference Figures 3 and 4 , a display screen 19 is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 1. The display screen 19 is an important component for intuitively displaying read information and related operation prompts. It adopts advanced liquid crystal display technology (LCD) or organic light-emitting diode display technology (OLED). The LCD screen 19 has the advantages of relatively low cost, clear display, and low energy consumption. It can stably display information such as text, numbers, and images under various lighting conditions. Its screen resolution is determined according to the functional requirements and usage scenarios of the device, generally between several hundred pixels and several thousand pixels, to ensure that detailed information of the animal tag, such as the animal's number, type, health data, etc., can be clearly displayed. A support frame 20 is fixedly connected to the left side of the top of the connecting plate 1. The support frame 20 serves as a structural member for supporting and fixing the strap 21. Its material is generally metal, such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel, with high strength and rigidity. It can withstand the tension applied by the strap 21 and various external forces generated during the carrying of the device, ensuring the stability and reliability of its own structure. The interior of the support frame 20 is fixedly connected to the strap 21;

[0040] As a component that facilitates the operator's carrying of the device, strap 21 is typically made of a high-strength fabric material, such as nylon webbing. Nylon strap 21 has excellent strength, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance, and can withstand significant tension, ensuring it will not break or be damaged by accidental pulling while carrying the device. It is also relatively soft and will not cause discomfort or marks to the operator. The outer bottom end of strap 21 is fixedly connected to the exterior of connecting plate 1. The right side of connecting plate 1 is fixedly connected to sliding plate 10. Sliding plate 10, as mentioned above, serves as the key component connecting reader 11 to connecting plate 1. It is typically made of metal, such as aluminum alloy or stainless steel, which offers a certain degree of strength and wear resistance. The aluminum alloy sliding plate 10 is relatively light in weight while ensuring sufficient strength, which is conducive to smooth sliding operation on the connecting plate 1 and reduces the influence of its own weight on sliding flexibility; the outside of the reader 11 is fixedly connected to the external bottom end of the sliding plate 10, the outside of the anti-collision shell 17 is slidably connected to the outside of the reader 11, and the external top of the anti-collision shell 17 is slidably connected to the outside of the fixed rod 12. One end of the spring 6 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating plate 4, and the other end of the spring 6 is fixedly connected to the outside of the fixed frame 2. When the rotating plate 4 rotates around the fixed axis 3, the spring 6 will expand and contract accordingly, storing or releasing elastic potential energy, thereby providing a reset force and pre-tightening force for the rotating plate 4, ensuring that the matching between the card rod 8 and the limit rod 9 is accurate and reliable, making the angle adjustment operation of the reader 11 more flexible and convenient, and can maintain a stable working state during long-term use, and will not malfunction or fail due to connection problems of the spring 6.

[0041] Working principle: First, when adjusting the position of the reader 11, by pulling the limit rod 9, the limit rod 9 can be removed from the inside of the sliding plate 10, and then the limit rod 9 can be separated from the outside of the card rod 8. By pressing the rotating plate 4, the telescopic rod 15 and the spring 16 are subjected to force during the pressing process, and then the rotating plate 4 can drive the card rod 8 to separate from the inside of the sliding plate 10, so that the sliding plate 10 can slide inside the connecting plate 1, and the sliding plate 10 drives the reader 11 to slide outside the fixed rod 12 through the sliding block 14. When it is adjusted to the appropriate position, by loosening the rotating plate 4, the rotating plate 4 is engaged with the sliding plate 10 by the reaction force of the spring 16, and then the reader 11 can be easily adjusted to the optimal reading position;

[0042] When the reader 11 is hit by an external force, the impact force first reaches the anti-collision shell 17. Under the action of the anti-collision shell 17, the anti-collision shell 17 can squeeze the telescopic rod 2 15. Under the action of the telescopic rod 2 15, the spring 2 16 sleeved on the outside of the telescopic rod 2 15 is deformed. When it is subjected to a certain force, the spring 2 16 rebounds, thereby preventing the reader 11 from being hit. The anti-collision measure prevents the reader 11 from being broken, the internal circuit board from being loosened or damaged, etc., thereby greatly extending the service life of the reader 11 and reducing the cost of equipment replacement.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, it is still possible for those skilled in the art to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or to make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
