[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a pair of animal ear tag pliers for animal husbandry and veterinary use, including an inner shaft 1, an outer shaft 101 rotatably connected to the outer surface of the inner shaft 1, an upper plier head 2 fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the inner shaft 1, a lower plier head 201 fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the outer shaft 101, the lower plier head 201 being positioned directly below the upper plier head 2, a connecting seat 202 fixedly connected to the bottom outer side of the lower plier head 201, a processing frame 203 fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the upper plier head 2, an ear tag pin 204 engaging at the bottom of the processing frame 203, a bottom groove 205 being provided directly below the ear tag pin 204, the bottom groove 205 being formed on one side of the top of the lower plier head 201, a connecting rod 206 being provided on one side of the ear tag pin 204, the connecting rod 206 being fixed to the bottom of the upper plier head 2, and the connecting rod... A squeezing block 207 is fixedly connected to the bottom of 206. A rubber ball 208 is set directly below the squeezing block 207. The rubber ball 208 is made of rubber. A bottom ring 209 is fixedly connected to the bottom outer side of the rubber ball 208. The bottom ring 209 is fixed to one side of the top of the lower clamp head 201. An outlet 210 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the bottom ring 209. An external handle 102 is fixedly connected to the other side of the external shaft 101. An internal handle 103 is set at the bottom of the external handle 102. The internal handle 103 is fixed to the other side of the internal shaft 1. A slot 3 is opened at the bottom of one side of the external handle 102. A spring 301 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the slot 3. A gripping groove 302 is opened on the outer surface of the external handle 102. An anti-slip strip 303 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the gripping groove 302.

[0022] According to the overall structure of the device, the operator naturally places their fingers in the gripping groove 302 to hold the outer handle 102 and the inner handle 103. Then, they pick up the ear tag 204 to be installed and place it on the processing frame 203, aligning the bottom groove 205 of the lower jaw 201 of the ear tag pliers with the position on the animal's ear where the ear tag needs to be installed. Then, they grip the outer handle 102 and the inner handle 103 tightly, causing the upper jaw 2 to move closer to the lower jaw 201 and close. As the upper jaw 2 descends, the compression block 207 gradually approaches the rubber ball 208. When the compression block 207 contacts the rubber ball 208, the rubber ball 208 begins to be compressed, resulting in a reduction in internal space. As the pressure increases, the disinfectant inside the rubber ball 208 flows to the outlet 210, causing the disinfectant to spray out. At this time, the opening of the outlet 210 is directly opposite the bottom groove 205, and the disinfectant will be sprayed directly to the point where the bottom groove 205 meets the ear tag 204. At the same time, the upper clamp 2 and the lower clamp 201 continue to close, and the ear tag 204 on the processing frame 203 is finally pressed into the bottom groove 205 and penetrates the animal's ear, thus installing the ear tag on the animal's ear and completing the tagging work. After the ear tag is installed, the handle is released, the upper clamp 2 is lifted upward, so that the squeezing block 207 no longer squeezes the rubber ball 208, and the rubber ball 208 gradually returns to its original shape under its own elasticity.

[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the extrusion block 207 is hemispherical in shape and is positioned directly above the rubber ball 208 via a connecting rod 206. The rubber ball 208 is secured to the inside of the bottom ring 209. The extrusion block 207 is fixed to the bottom of the upper clamp head 2 via the connecting rod 206, and the rubber ball 208 is fixed to the top of the lower clamp head 201 via the bottom ring 209. The liquid outlet 210 is located on one side of the bottom groove 205 via the bottom ring 209, with the opening of the liquid outlet 210 directly facing the bottom groove 205. The front end of the liquid outlet 210 is conical in shape. The inner side of the 0 is connected to the rubber ball 208. The bottom of the rubber ball 208 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting tube 211. The bottom of the connecting tube 211 is connected to the liquid storage tube 212. The inner surface of the connecting seat 202 is movably connected to the piston rod 213. The liquid storage tube 212 is fixed to the bottom of the lower clamp head 201 through the connecting seat 202. The outer surface of the piston rod 213 is tightly fitted with the inner surface of the liquid storage tube 212. The connecting tube 211 is connected to the rubber ball 208. The piston rod 213 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the liquid storage tube 212.

[0024] By having the operator grip the external handle 102 and the internal handle 103, the upper jaw 2 moves towards the lower jaw 201 and closes. As the upper jaw 2 descends, the compression block 207 gradually approaches the rubber ball 208. When the compression block 207 contacts the rubber ball 208, the rubber ball 208 begins to be compressed, resulting in a decrease in internal space and an increase in pressure. Under the action of pressure, the disinfectant inside the rubber ball 208 flows towards the outlet 210, causing the disinfectant to spray out. At this time, the opening of the outlet 210 is directly facing... Disinfectant is sprayed directly into the groove 205 where it meets the ear tag 204. At the same time, the upper clamp 2 and the lower clamp 201 continue to close, and the ear tag 204 on the processing frame 203 is finally pressed into the groove 205 and penetrates the animal's ear, thus installing the ear tag on the animal's ear and completing the tagging work. After the ear tag is installed, the handle is released, the upper clamp 2 is lifted upward, so that the squeezing block 207 no longer squeezes the rubber ball 208, and the rubber ball 208 gradually returns to its original shape under its own elasticity.

[0025] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the slot 3 is located on the opposite side between the outer handle 102 and the inner handle 103. The spring 301 is connected between the outer handle 102 and the inner handle 103. The grip groove 302 is located outside the outer handle 102 and the inner handle 103. The anti-slip strip 303 is made of soft silicone material and is evenly distributed along the outer surface of the grip groove 302.

[0026] The silicone anti-slip strip 303 on the grip groove 302 increases the friction between the fingers and the handle. When a lot of work is required, the grip groove 302 and the anti-slip strip 303 provide the operator with a comfortable grip experience and ensure smooth operation.

[0027] Working principle: The operator naturally places their fingers in the gripping groove 302 to hold the outer handle 102 and the inner handle 103. Then, they pick up the ear tag 204 to be installed and place it on the processing frame 203, aligning the bottom groove 205 of the lower jaw 201 of the ear tag pliers with the position on the animal's ear where the ear tag needs to be installed. Then, they grip the outer handle 102 and the inner handle 103 tightly, causing the upper jaw 2 to move closer to the lower jaw 201 and close. As the upper jaw 2 descends, the compression block 207 gradually approaches the rubber ball 208. When the compression block 207 contacts the rubber ball 208, the rubber ball 208 begins to be compressed, resulting in a decrease in internal space and an increase in pressure. Under pressure, the disinfectant inside the rubber ball 208 flows to the outlet 210, causing the disinfectant to spray out. At this time, the opening of the outlet 210 is directly opposite the bottom groove 205, and the disinfectant will be sprayed directly to the junction of the bottom groove 205 and the ear tag 204. At the same time, the upper clamp 2 and the lower clamp 201 continue to close, and the ear tag 204 on the processing frame 203 is finally pressed into the bottom groove 205 and penetrates the animal's ear, thus installing the ear tag on the animal's ear and completing the tagging work. After the ear tag is installed, the handle is released, the upper clamp 2 is lifted upward, so that the squeezing block 207 no longer squeezes the rubber ball 208, and the rubber ball 208 gradually returns to its original shape under its own elasticity.

[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
