Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic ear tag technology, specifically to a long-powered active electronic ear tag device for livestock breeding. Background Technology

[0002] In livestock farming, electronic ear tags are crucial tools for individual animal identification, growth monitoring, and disease control. Traditional active electronic ear tags often suffer from insufficient power supply and short battery life. Frequent battery replacements not only waste manpower and resources but also cause stress to livestock, impacting farming efficiency. Therefore, developing a long-lasting active electronic ear tag device is of significant practical importance. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a long-powered active electronic ear tag device for livestock breeding, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is: a long-powered active electronic ear tag device for livestock breeding, including an ear tag female buckle body and a matching ear stud. The ear tag female buckle body has a connection hole that matches the ear stud. The ear tag female buckle body has an assembly hole. A thermoelectric generator component connected to the charging end of the ear tag female buckle body is installed in the assembly hole.

[0005] The aforementioned components achieve the following effect: the ear tag female buckle body and the matching ear stud can be fixed to the animal's ear. The hot end of the thermoelectric generator can fit against the animal's ear surface after the ear tag female buckle body is installed. When the hot end of the thermoelectric generator is in close contact with the animal's ear, the hot end can obtain stable heat because the animal's body temperature is relatively stable. The cold end is exposed to the external environment, forming a temperature difference with the hot end. Under this temperature difference, electrons diffuse from the high-temperature end to the low-temperature end, thereby generating a potential difference across the thermoelectric generator, realizing the purpose of converting heat energy into electrical energy, and providing continuous power to the ear tag female buckle body.

[0006] Preferably, the thermoelectric generator assembly includes a thermoelectric element installed in the mounting hole.

[0007] The effect achieved by the above components is that thermoelectric generators can achieve the purpose of thermoelectric power generation.

[0008] Preferably, a heat-conducting sheet is fixed on the outer wall of the hot end of the thermoelectric generator, and the side of the heat-conducting sheet near the animal's ear is coated with thermally conductive silicone grease.

[0009] The aforementioned components achieve the following effects: the heat-conducting sheet has excellent thermal conductivity, quickly transferring heat from the animal's ear to the hot end of the thermoelectric generator; at the same time, the thermally conductive silicone grease applied between the heat-conducting sheet and the animal's ear further improves the heat transfer efficiency.

[0010] Preferably, the heat-conducting sheet has a spiral protrusion on the side near the animal's ear.

[0011] The effect achieved by the above components is that the spiral protrusions can increase the adhesion strength of the thermal grease and increase the heat exchange area between the thermal grease and the heat-conducting sheet, thereby further improving the heat transfer efficiency.

[0012] Preferably, a heat sink is fixed to the outer wall of the cold end of the thermoelectric generator, and heat dissipation fins are fixed on the heat sink at equal intervals.

[0013] The effect achieved by the above components is that the heat dissipation area can be increased by the heat sink and heat dissipation fins, thereby accelerating the dissipation of heat and forming a stable temperature difference between the hot end and the cold end of the thermoelectric generator, thus promoting thermoelectric power generation.

[0014] Preferably, a marking groove is provided on the outer wall of the ear tag mother buckle body.

[0015] The aforementioned components achieve the following effect: livestock marking information can be printed or labeled through the marking slots, thus avoiding wear and tear.

[0016] This utility model provides an improved, long-powered active electronic ear tag device for livestock farming, which has the following improvements and advantages compared with the prior art:

[0017] Firstly, this utility model can be fixed to the animal's ear by using the ear tag female buckle body and the matching ear stud. The hot end of the thermoelectric generator can fit against the animal's ear after the ear tag female buckle body is installed. When the hot end of the thermoelectric generator is in close contact with the animal's ear, the animal's body temperature is relatively stable, so the hot end can obtain stable heat. The cold end is exposed to the external environment, forming a temperature difference with the hot end. Under this temperature difference, electrons will diffuse from the high temperature end to the low temperature end, thereby generating a potential difference at both ends of the thermoelectric generator, realizing the purpose of converting heat energy into electrical energy, and providing continuous power supply to the ear tag female buckle body.

[0018] Secondly, this invention utilizes a heat-conducting sheet with excellent thermal conductivity to quickly transfer heat from the animal's ear to the hot end of the thermoelectric generator. Simultaneously, the thermally conductive silicone grease applied between the heat-conducting sheet and the animal's ear further enhances heat transfer efficiency. The heat sink and fins increase the heat dissipation area, accelerating heat dissipation and creating a stable temperature difference between the hot and cold ends of the thermoelectric generator, thus promoting thermoelectric power generation.

[0025] The present invention will now be described in detail, and the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0026] This utility model provides an improved, long-powered active electronic ear tag device for livestock farming. The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0027] In embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, a long-powered active electronic ear tag device for livestock farming includes an ear tag female buckle body 1 and a matching ear stud 2. A marking groove 6 is provided on the outer wall of the ear tag female buckle body 1, allowing for coding or patch marking of livestock information without wear. The ear tag female buckle body 1 has a connection hole 3 that matches the ear stud 2, and an assembly hole 4. A thermoelectric generator component 5, connected to the charging end of the ear tag female buckle body 1, is installed in the assembly hole 4. The thermoelectric generator component 5 includes a thermoelectric generator plate 51 installed in the assembly hole 4. Since the livestock's body temperature is relatively stable, the hot end can obtain stable heat. The cold end is exposed to the external environment, forming a temperature difference with the hot end. Under this temperature difference, electrons diffuse from the high-temperature end to the low-temperature end, thereby generating a potential difference across the thermoelectric generator 51, achieving the purpose of converting heat energy into electrical energy and providing continuous power to the ear tag female buckle body 1. The ear tag female buckle body 1 includes a power supply module (rechargeable battery), an energy management circuit module (rectifier circuit, charging management circuit, and voltage regulation output circuit), a data processing module, and a communication module. The energy management circuit module converts the alternating current generated by the thermoelectric generator 51 into a stable direct current voltage, working with the power supply module to prepare for subsequent charging and equipment power supply.

[0028] In this embodiment of the invention, a heat-conducting sheet 52 is fixed on the outer wall of the hot end of the thermoelectric generator 51. The side of the heat-conducting sheet 52 near the animal's ear is coated with thermally conductive silicone grease. The heat-conducting sheet 52 has good thermal conductivity, which can quickly transfer the heat from the animal's ear to the hot end of the thermoelectric generator 51. At the same time, the thermally conductive silicone grease applied between the heat-conducting sheet 52 and the animal's ear improves the heat transfer efficiency. A spiral protrusion 53 is provided on the side of the heat-conducting sheet 52 near the animal's ear. The spiral protrusion 53 can increase the adhesion strength of the thermally conductive silicone grease and increase the heat exchange area between the thermally conductive silicone grease and the heat-conducting sheet 52, further improving the heat transfer efficiency. A heat sink 54 is fixed on the outer wall of the cold end of the thermoelectric generator 51. Heat sink fins 55 are fixed on the heat sink 54 and are evenly distributed. The heat sink 54 and the heat sink fins 55 can increase the heat dissipation area and accelerate heat dissipation, thereby forming a stable temperature difference between the hot end and the cold end of the thermoelectric generator 51 and promoting thermoelectric power generation.

[0029] The working principle of the active electronic ear tag device for livestock breeding provided by this utility model is as follows: The ear tag female buckle body 1 and the matching ear pin 2 can be fixed to the animal's ear. The hot end of the thermoelectric generator 5 can fit against the animal's ear after the ear tag female buckle body 1 is installed. When the hot end of the thermoelectric generator 5 is in close contact with the animal's ear, the animal's body temperature is relatively stable, so the hot end can obtain stable heat. The cold end is exposed to the external environment, forming a temperature difference with the hot end. The heat-conducting sheet 52 has good thermal conductivity and can quickly transfer the heat from the animal's ear to the hot end of the thermoelectric generator 51. At the same time, the thermally conductive silicone grease applied between the heat-conducting sheet 52 and the animal's ear improves the heat transfer efficiency. Under this temperature difference, electrons diffuse from the high-temperature end to the low-temperature end, thereby generating a potential difference between the two ends of the thermoelectric generator 5, realizing the purpose of converting heat energy into electrical energy and providing a continuous power supply to the ear tag female buckle body 1.
