[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 3The present invention provides an embodiment of an auxiliary fence structure for sheep inspection, comprising a fence splicing mechanism, which includes two support units 1, a fence unit 2, and an auxiliary clamping unit 11. By splicing and assembling multiple fence splicing mechanisms together, the movement of sheep can be restricted.

[0023] Two support units 1 are connected by a fence unit 2. Each support unit 1 includes a hollow support column 3. The front and rear ends of the hollow support column 3 are provided with guide grooves 9. A transmission seat 10 is slidably connected to the inner side of two adjacent guide grooves 9. Both ends of the transmission seat 10 are rotatably connected to auxiliary support diagonal rods 6. A sealing cover 4 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the hollow support column 3. An adjusting rod 5 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the sealing cover 4. The bottom end of the adjusting rod 5 passes through the sealing cover 4 and the transmission seat 10 and is inserted into the inner side of the bottom end of the hollow support column 3. The adjusting rod 5 is connected to the hollow support column 3. The column 3 is rotatably connected, and the adjusting rod 5 is threadedly connected to the transmission seat 10. Both ends of the transmission seat 10 pass through the guide groove 9 and are rotatably connected to the upper end of the auxiliary support diagonal rod 6 through a pin. The two adjacent auxiliary support diagonal rods 6 are symmetrically installed relative to the adjusting rod 5, so that when the adjusting rod 5 rotates, it drives the two auxiliary support diagonal rods 6 to move down through the transmission seat 10, and at the same time, they can be symmetrically inserted into the soil relative to the hollow support column 3. This realizes the lateral auxiliary support of the two auxiliary support diagonal rods 6 to the hollow support column 3, effectively maintaining the stability of the fence installation and use, and reducing the assembly difficulty.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The fence unit 2 consists of a railing retaining plate 7 and multiple connecting railings 8. The railing retaining plate 7 is rotatably connected to the multiple connecting railings 8. The multiple connecting railings 8 are arranged linearly along the side of the railing retaining plate 7. Both ends of the connecting railings 8 are threadedly connected to two adjacent hollow support columns 3. The railing retaining plate 7 can rotate and retain the connecting railings 8, thereby improving the ease of connection between the fence unit 2 and two adjacent support units 1.

[0025] Please see Figures 3 to 5 The auxiliary clamping unit 11 includes a fixed clamping claw frame 12. Two connecting angle plates 17 are slidably connected to the rear end face of the fixed clamping claw frame 12. An adjustment knob 18 is installed between the two connecting angle plates 17. The two connecting angle plates 17 are symmetrically installed relative to the railing retaining plate 7. The two ends of the adjustment knob 18 are provided with external threads with opposite directions of rotation. The two ends of the adjustment knob 18 are connected to the two connecting angle plates 17 by threads. The two connecting angle plates 17 slide in opposite directions along the axis of the adjustment knob 18. When the adjustment knob 18 is rotated, it can drive the two connecting angle plates 17 to slide, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the fixed clamping claw frame 12 and the railing retaining plate 7, and meets the requirements of the fixed clamping claw frame 12 for fixing sheep of different heights.

[0026] A movable gripper 14 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the fixed gripper 12. A connecting rod 16 is installed between the fixed gripper 12 and the movable gripper 14. A limit block 13 is installed at one end of the movable gripper 14 near the fixed gripper 12. A handle 15 is fixedly provided in the middle of the movable gripper 14. The upper end of the fixed gripper 12 is fixedly connected to the railing retaining plate 7 through an adjusting knob 18 and two connecting angle plates 17. The movable gripper 14 is rotatably connected to the fixed gripper 12 via a connecting rod 16. The limiting block 13 is inserted between the upper ends of the movable gripper 14 and the fixed gripper 12. The fixed gripper 12 and the movable gripper 14 can quickly grip the sheep, and the limiting block 13 can effectively limit the movable gripper 14 to prevent the sheep from breaking free from the fixed gripper 12 and the movable gripper 14, thus maintaining stability during sheep disease prevention and group identification.

[0027] When in use, the fence is used to limit the movement of sheep. The fence is formed by alternately installing the support unit 1 and the fence unit 2. Specifically, multiple connecting rails 8 are installed on the inner side of the rail retaining plate 7 in a linear arrangement. Both ends of the connecting rails 8 are connected to two adjacent hollow support columns 3 by threads. This makes it easy to assemble two adjacent support units 1 through the fence unit 2. The movement of sheep can be limited by inserting the hollow support columns 3 into the soil.

[0028] At the same time, the adjusting rod 5 is rotated, so that the adjusting rod 5 drives the transmission seat 10 to move down under the guidance of the hollow support column 3 and the sealing cover 4. Then, the transmission seat 10 drives the two auxiliary support diagonal rods 6 to move down and can be inserted into the soil symmetrically relative to the hollow support column 3, so as to realize the lateral auxiliary support of the two auxiliary support diagonal rods 6 to the hollow support column 3, effectively maintain the stability of the fence installation and use, and reduce the assembly difficulty.

[0029] When securing sheep, the sheep are driven onto the fixed clamping claw frame 12, which supports the sheep's abdomen. The movable clamping claw frame 14 rotates relative to the fixed clamping claw frame 12 via the connecting rod 16, allowing both the movable and fixed clamping claw frames 14 to clamp the sheep. Simultaneously, a limiting block 13 is inserted between the fixed and movable clamping claw frames 12, effectively limiting the movable clamping claw frame 14 and preventing the sheep from escaping from between the fixed and movable clamping claw frames 12, thus maintaining stability during sheep vaccination and group identification.

[0030] The fixed clamping claw frame 12 and the fence retaining plate 7 are fixedly connected by an adjusting knob 18 and two connecting corner plates 17. The installation height of the fixed clamping claw frame 12 relative to the fence retaining plate 7 can be adjusted according to the height of the sheep. Specifically, the two ends of the adjusting knob 18 are provided with external threads with opposite directions of rotation. The two ends of the adjusting knob 18 are connected to the two connecting corner plates 17 by threads. Thus, when the adjusting knob 18 is rotated, it can drive the two connecting corner plates 17 to slide in opposite directions, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the fixed clamping claw frame 12 and the fence retaining plate 7, and meets the needs of the fixed clamping claw frame 12 for fixing sheep of different heights.

[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
