Detailed Implementation

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides a restraint device for animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, which includes a bracket 1, a mounting frame 2, a drive unit 3, a restraint buckle 4, a first magnet 5, and a second magnet 6. The bracket 1 is used to connect and support other components, the mounting frame 2 is used to connect the restraint buckle 4, the drive unit 3 is used to drive the mounting frame 2 to move, the restraint buckle 4 is used to fix the animal body, and the first magnet 5 and the second magnet 6 are used to connect the restraint buckle 4 and the mounting frame 2.

[0021] Specifically, the bracket 1 includes a base plate 1a, a connecting part 1b, and a top plate 1c. The top plate 1c is located above the base plate 1a. The connecting part 1b is fixedly connected to the top plate 1c and the base plate 1a respectively. The base plate 1a, the connecting part 1b, and the top plate 1c can be connected by welding, bolting, riveting, or other methods.

[0022] The mounting frame 2 includes a first connecting plate 2b, a second connecting plate 2c, a telescopic rod 2d, and a support spring 2e. The first connecting plate 2b is located above the second connecting plate 2c and is connected to the drive unit 3. The second connecting plate 2c is connected to the restraint buckle 4. The first connecting plate 2b and the second connecting plate 2c are connected by the telescopic rod 2d, allowing them to slide relative to each other. The support spring 2e is sleeved on the telescopic rod 2d, providing elasticity between the first connecting plate 2b and the second connecting plate 2c to prevent excessive pressure from the restraint buckle 4 on the animal. Preferably, the animal restraint device also includes a pressure sensor 7, which is located between the support spring 2e and the telescopic rod 2d to detect the pressure of the restraint buckle 4 on the animal and prevent excessive pressure from harming the animal. A first mating part 2a is formed on the lower side of the mounting frame 2; in this embodiment, the first mating part 2a is formed on the lower side of the second connecting plate 2c.

[0023] One end of the drive unit 3 is connected to the upper end of the bracket 1, and the other end is connected to the mounting frame 2, and is used to drive the mounting frame 2 to move up and down. Specifically, in this embodiment, one end of the drive unit 3 is connected to the lower side of the top plate 1c, and the other end is connected to the first connecting plate 2b. Preferably, the drive unit 3 is an electric cylinder, with the fixed end of the drive unit 3 connected to the upper end of the bracket 1 and the driving end of the drive unit 3 connected to the mounting frame 2. More preferably, the animal husbandry and veterinary restraint device also includes a guide unit 8, with one end of the guide unit 8 connected to the upper end of the bracket 1 and the other end connected to the mounting frame 2. In this embodiment, two guide units 8 are provided to improve the guiding accuracy. Further, the guide unit 8 is a linear guide rail. Specifically, in this embodiment, one end of the guide unit 8 is connected to the lower side of the top plate 1c, and the other end is connected to the first connecting plate 2b.

[0024] The restraining buckle 4 includes a fixing part 4b and a deformable part 4c. The fixing part 4b and the deformable part 4c are fixedly connected. A second mating part 4a is formed on the upper side of the fixing part 4b. The fixing part 4b is used to connect the second connecting plate 2c, so it is made of a hard material, such as plastic. The deformable part 4c is used to contact animals. To prevent injury to animals, it should be made of a soft material, such as foam or sponge. The fixing part 4b and the deformable part 4c can be glued together. The shape and size of the lower side of the deformable part 4c are designed according to the animal's body size. Generally, it is designed to be arc-shaped. That is, if the animal is large, a restraining buckle 4 with a large and deep arc of the deformable part 4c is selected, while if the animal is small, a restraining buckle 4 with a small and shallow arc of the deformable part 4c is selected. A second mating part 4a is formed on the upper side of the retaining buckle 4. The first mating part 2a and the second mating part 4a are connected to each other to restrict the retaining buckle 4 from sliding relative to the mounting bracket 2 in the horizontal direction. Generally, the first mating part 2a and the second mating part 4a are clearance fit. Preferably, the first mating part 2a is a groove and the second mating part 4a is a boss. It should be noted that the shape of the first mating part 2a and the second mating part 4a is not limited, as long as it can restrict the sliding of the retaining buckle 4 and the second mounting plate. Moreover, multiple sets of first mating parts 2a and second mating parts 4a can be provided to make the connection between the retaining buckle 4 and the second connecting plate 2c more stable.

[0025] The first magnet 5 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 2, and the second magnet 6 is fixedly connected to the retaining buckle 4. The first magnet 5 and the second magnet 6 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence to form an attractive force between the retaining buckle 4 and the mounting bracket 2. When the retaining buckle 4 needs to be replaced, it can be removed by pulling it down. When the retaining buckle 4 needs to be installed, the second mating part 4a and the second mating part 4a are aligned, and the retaining buckle 4 is moved upward until the first magnet 5 and the second magnet 6 are attracted together. Preferably, the first magnet 5 and the second magnet 6 can be neodymium iron boron magnets, which have strong magnetism, and multiple sets of first magnet 5 and second magnet 6 can be set to further improve the magnetic force. In addition, the lower end of the second connecting part 1b and the upper end of the fixing part 4b can be designed as arc-shaped. On the one hand, this can form a fit and restrict the relative movement of the two. On the other hand, since the deformable part 4c is mostly designed as arc-shaped, it can also save the manufacturing material of the deformable part 4c.

[0026] Preferably, the animal husbandry and veterinary restraint device further includes rollers 9, which are connected to the bottom of the bracket 1 to facilitate the movement of the animal husbandry and veterinary restraint device.

[0027] In summary, the present invention provides a restraint device for animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, wherein the first mating part 2a and the second mating part 4a cooperate to restrict the relative sliding of the mounting frame 2 and the restraint buckle 4, and the first magnet 5 and the second magnet 6 provide attraction to make the restraint buckle 4 fit tightly under the mounting frame 2. When the restraint buckle 4 needs to be replaced, it can be removed by pulling the restraint buckle 4 downward with a little force, making replacement convenient.

[0028] The specific embodiments of this utility model described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made based on the technical concept of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
