[0002] Dairy goats are primarily raised for milk production, exhibiting stable milk production performance, high milk yield, excellent milk quality, and high nutritional value. To increase the reproductive rate of dairy goats, artificial insemination is now widely used. Artificial insemination allows ewes to quickly become pregnant. First, semen is collected from rams using instruments. After semen quality testing and a series of processing steps, the semen is then injected into the reproductive tract of the estrous ewe to achieve pregnancy. This significantly improves the utilization rate of superior breeding rams, saves substantial breeding ram feeding costs, accelerates the genetic progress of the flock, and prevents the spread of diseases.

Sliding mounts are mounted on the two guide rods 23. The slide is equipped with a movable slide 5. A protrusion 51 is installed on the side wall of one movable slide 5. The top and bottom of the protrusion 51 are provided with a rotating shaft 52 that rotates with the rotating seat 13. The other movable slide 5 is provided with a positioning mechanism 6 for positioning and fixing the other end of the baffle 1. The top of the two uprights 22 is provided with a top rod 24. Two connecting rods 25 are provided between the two top rods 24. The front and rear sides of the base plate 2 are provided with inclined surfaces 26. The side wall of the base rod 21 is provided with two lifting adjustment mechanisms 7. The lifting adjustment mechanism 7 is equipped with movable wheels 8.

[0026] The feed box 4 is placed on the swing plate 3, so that the position of the feed box 4 can be changed. This makes it easier for dairy goats to observe the feed in the feed box 4. The baffle 1 can be set at the rear of the entire device first, and then moved by manual operation of the moving slide 5. The moving slide 5 can drive the feed box 4 to the front of the entire device, so that the dairy goats can gradually enter the entire device by being attracted by the feed, which improves convenience and eliminates the need for manual driving.

[0027] The positioning mechanism 6 includes a pin 61, an upper seat 62, and a lower seat 63. Both the upper seat 62 and the lower seat 63 have insertion holes 621 that engage with the pin 61. The upper seat 62 is located on the side wall of the other end of the baffle 1, and the lower seat 63 is located on another movable slide 5. By inserting the pin 61 into the insertion holes 621 of the upper seat 62 and the lower seat 63, the baffle 1 can be quickly positioned and fixed, making the operation convenient.

[0028] The top of the pin 61 is provided with a pull ring 611, which can improve the ease of pulling out the pin 61.

Compared with the prior art, the hinge in the prior art has no locking function, and the inclined panel is prone to tilting, which leads to the instability of the whole device. This utility model avoids this situation.

[0031] One end of the back of the swing plate 3 is provided with an L-shaped limiting rod 31 for limiting the rotation angle of the swing plate 3. The rotation position of the swing plate 3 is limited by the L-shaped limiting rod 31, which avoids the feed box 4 from rotating too much with the swing plate 3, thereby increasing the difficulty for the dairy goats to eat the feed in the feed box 4.

[0032] A pull rod 54 is provided on the outer wall of the movable slide 5, which can improve the convenience of moving the movable slide 5.

[0033] The feed box 4 is provided with a pull rope 41 on its outer wall. One end of the pull rope 41 is provided with a pull ring 42. The pull rope 41 can be pulled by the pull ring 42. The pull rope 41 pulls the feed box 4, and the feed box 4 drives the swing plate 3 to rotate within the window 12, which improves the ease of operation.

[0034] Working principle: In use, first rotate the adjusting screw 73 by turning the handle 74. After all the movable wheels 8 are adjusted and moved upward, the base plate 2 can touch the ground. Then, swing the swing plate 3 backward so that the feed box 4 is behind the baffle 1. The dairy goats will be attracted by the feed in the feed box 4 and will actively eat it. At this time, the worker pushes the moving slide 5 by pulling the lever 54. The moving slide 5 moves the baffle 1 to the front of the device, and the dairy goats can gradually step onto the base plate 2. After the baffle 1 moves to the front of the device, the pulling rope 4 is pulled by the pull ring 611. 1. The pull rope 41 drives the feed box 4 to rotate, and the feed box 4 gradually moves from behind the baffle 1 to in front of the baffle 1, so that the dairy goat cannot eat the feed. Then the dairy goat's head gradually extends into the feeding trough 11 of the baffle 1, and then the dairy goat can continue to eat the feed. Then the staff can quickly carry out artificial insemination. After artificial insemination is completed, the pull ring 611 pulls the pin 61, and the pin 61 can disengage from the upper side seat 62 and the lower side seat 63. Then the baffle 1 is rotated outward, and the front end of the device becomes open. At this time, the dairy goat is driven out of the device.
