AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing animal feces collection devices have knots that are not secure enough and are not easy to adjust in size. This makes it easy for the knots to come loose during the full collection process, making it impossible to accurately record the weight of the feces and potentially increasing stress on the animals.

Method used

It employs a fixed rope, elastic rope, connecting rope, connecting block, second buckle, and connecting module. The buckle design, which is staggered from the animal's spine, increases the comfort of fixation. The connecting module fixes the collection bag to the animal's buttocks, adapting to animals of different sizes, reducing stress response, and minimizing operational errors.

Benefits of technology

It improves the stability and accuracy of fecal collection without affecting animal feed intake, reduces manual operation, is applicable to fecal collection of animals of different sizes, and reduces stress response.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the related technical field of animal husbandry scientific research especially animal excrement collecting device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the digestion test of animals (for example, dairy cows, beef cattle, goats, sheep, etc.), it is often necessary to collect excrement to calculate the grazing animal's intake or to determine the digestion rate of the test animal's nutrients by using the total excrement collection method. For these test animals, the commonly used excrement collection method is total excrement collection and rectal sampling. Although the rectal sampling method does not require a collection bag, it requires grabbing the animal and probing the anus each time, which can easily frighten the animal, especially for lambs and fattening sheep. Frequent disturbances can cause the animal to have a stress reaction, resulting in reduced appetite and hindered growth, among other adverse conditions. In addition, the partial sampling method often requires feeding the grazing animal with an indicator, which is excreted with the excrement and can easily pollute the environment.

[0003] The existing animal excrement collecting device is tied on the test animal during use, and the size is not easy to adjust, which is not convenient for application in animals of different ages or body types. In addition, the knot in the tying process can easily increase the stress of the animal by tying to the animal's fur, and the knot is not firm enough. Moreover, the excrement bag needs to be tied for continuous collection for several days during the total excrement collection process, and the tied knot is easy to come loose during grazing, resulting in the failure to collect part of the excrement and the inability to accurately record the weight of the excrement.
