[0002] In livestock farming, ear tags are an important tool for improving management efficiency and ensuring food safety. Ear tags provide each animal with a unique identification mark, helping farms track the growth process, health status, and reproductive history of individual animals. They also support effective disease control by quickly identifying infected or quarantined animals to prevent disease spread and for implementing vaccination programs. Furthermore, ear tags ensure transparency in the origin of meat and other animal products, allowing consumers to trace back to specific farms and production batches, thus enhancing food safety.
[0003] Traditional ear tags can put excessive pressure on the ears of poultry and livestock, leading to poor local blood circulation or skin damage. Furthermore, the lack of proper ventilation can easily cause infection and reduce wearing comfort and safety. Additionally, some ear tags have display panels that are difficult to replace or adjust, requiring the removal of the entire ear tag to update information, increasing operational difficulty and time costs, and reducing management efficiency. Moreover, the replacement process may also cause additional stress to poultry and livestock.
[0004] Therefore, in order to address the shortcomings of the above-mentioned problems, a miniature ear tag for poultry and livestock is proposed. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and provides a miniature ear tag for poultry and livestock.

[0007] The bottom of the placement plate is fixedly connected to a second screw, the upper surface of the placement plate is provided with a placement groove, and the bottom inner wall of the placement groove is provided with a connecting groove.
[0008] The bottom of the display panel is fixedly connected to a first screw, the display panel is located in the placement groove, and the outer circumferential wall of the first screw is threadedly connected to the inner circumferential wall of the connecting groove.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a through vent hole is provided on the bottom inner wall of the connecting groove.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the outer circumferential wall of the second screw is threadedly connected to the inner circumferential wall of the nut.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the extrusion assembly includes a limiting plate, a plurality of sliding rods disposed on the upper surface of the limiting plate, a common extrusion plate disposed on the top of the plurality of sliding rods, and a plurality of springs disposed on the outer circumferential wall of the plurality of sliding rods.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the limiting plate is fixedly connected to the outer circumferential wall of the nut.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the tops of several sliding rods are all fixedly connected to the bottom of the same extrusion plate.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom ends of the plurality of sliding rods all penetrate the upper surface of the limiting plate and are slidably connected.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the bottom end of each of the sliding rods, and the limiting block is located below the limiting plate.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a plurality of springs are respectively sleeved on the outer circumferential wall of a plurality of sliding rods.

[0018] This utility model solves the defects existing in the background technology, and has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] (1) This utility model provides a miniature ear tag for poultry and livestock, with a display panel located in a placement slot and fixed by a threaded connection, allowing users to easily replace or adjust the display content without removing the two screws and nuts. This not only facilitates farm managers in managing and monitoring poultry and livestock, but also simplifies the daily maintenance of the ear tag and reduces the potential for additional stress on poultry and livestock.
[0020] (2) This utility model provides a miniature ear tag for poultry and livestock. Through the arrangement of a limiting plate, sliding rod, extrusion plate, and spring within the extrusion assembly, a safe fastening system capable of adaptively adjusting pressure is formed. The elastic force provided by the spring allows the extrusion plate to adhere to the surface of the poultry or livestock's ear, ensuring a good fit. Simultaneously, the presence of the limiting block prevents the sliding rod from dislodging from the limiting plate, increasing the overall structural stability. Even if vibration or pulling occurs during the poultry or livestock's activities, this fastening mechanism can effectively maintain the ear tag's position, preventing it from loosening or being lost.

[0027] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, which are only used to illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner, and therefore only show the components related to the present invention.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a miniature ear tag for poultry and livestock includes: a placement plate 1, a display panel 4, and a nut 2, as well as an extrusion assembly 3 disposed on the outer circumference of the nut 2;
[0029] like Figures 2-3 As shown, a second screw 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the placement plate 1, and a placement groove 7 is provided on the upper surface of the placement plate 1. A connecting groove 10 is provided on the bottom inner wall of the placement groove 7.
[0030] The bottom of the display panel 4 is fixedly connected to a first screw 5. The display panel 4 is located in the placement groove 7. The outer circumference of the first screw 5 is threadedly connected to the inner circumference of the connecting groove 10. The bottom inner wall of the connecting groove 10 is provided with a through vent hole 8. The outer circumference of the second screw 6 is threadedly connected to the inner circumference of the nut 2.
[0031] It should be noted that the threaded connection between the second screw 6 and the nut 2 at the bottom of the placement plate 1 ensures that the ear tag is securely fixed to the animal's ear. This connection method not only provides sufficient tightening force to ensure the stability of the ear tag, but also allows the user to adjust or remove the ear tag as needed. The display panel 4 is located within the placement slot 7 of the placement plate 1 and is fixed by a threaded connection. This not only protects the display panel 4 from external environmental influences such as scratches and impacts, but also makes it very easy to replace or update the display content. Managers can unscrew the display panel 4 to make information changes without removing the second screw 6 and the nut 2, improving management efficiency while ensuring the security and accuracy of the information display.
[0032] like Figures 3-4 As shown, the extrusion assembly 3 includes a limiting plate 9, a plurality of sliding rods 302 disposed on the upper surface of the limiting plate 9, the same extrusion plate 301 disposed on the top of the plurality of sliding rods 302, and a plurality of springs 304 disposed on the outer circumference of the plurality of sliding rods 302.
[0033] The limiting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the nut 2. The tops of several sliding rods 302 are all fixedly connected to the bottom of the same extrusion plate 301. The bottom ends of several sliding rods 302 penetrate the upper surface of the limiting plate 9 and are slidably connected. The bottom ends of several sliding rods 302 are all fixedly connected to limiting blocks 303, which are located below the limiting plate 9. Several springs 304 are respectively sleeved on the outer circumference of several sliding rods 302. One end of several springs 304 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the extrusion plate 301, and the other end of several springs 304 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the limiting plate 9.
[0034] It should be noted that the compression assembly 3, consisting of the limiting plate 9, sliding rod 302, compression plate 301, and spring 304, can automatically adjust the applied pressure according to the thickness of the animal's ear. When the ear tag is installed, the compression plate 301 applies uniform pressure to the ear tissue under the action of the spring 304, ensuring the ear tag is secure without causing damage due to excessive pressure. The presence of the spring 304 provides necessary elastic compensation, allowing the device to adapt to changes in the shape and size of different individuals' ears, thereby improving the safety and comfort of wearing it. The limiting block 303 is fixed to the bottom end of the sliding rod 302 and located below the limiting plate 9, effectively preventing the sliding rod 302 from accidentally falling off the limiting plate 9. This avoids potential local blood circulation obstruction or skin damage caused by over-tightening.
[0035] In use, the second screw 6 of the placement plate 1 is passed through the selected position in the animal's ear. After passing through the ear, the nut 2 is screwed onto the second screw 6 until it contacts the ear but does not create pressure. Continue rotating the nut 2 until the compression component 3 begins to function, i.e., the compression plate 301 gently presses against the ear tissue under the action of the spring 304. At this point, the ear tag should be secure but not overtightened to avoid affecting blood circulation or causing skin damage. If it is necessary to change the information on the display panel 4, simply unscrew the display panel 4; there is no need to disassemble the entire ear tag, simplifying the information update process and improving management efficiency. When it is necessary to remove the ear tag, the operation is performed in reverse order: first loosen the nut 2, and then carefully remove the ear tag from the ear.
[0036] Based on the preferred embodiments of this utility model described above, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
