While embodiments of this application are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that this application may be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to make this application more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of this application to those skilled in the art.

[0023] To address the technical challenge of boars having difficulty climbing the semen collection frame, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-3 This application provides a semen collection rack for pig breeding, including a base plate 1, a dummy sow platform 2, and an auxiliary climbing mechanism 6.

[0024] The base plate 1 is a plate-shaped steel frame structure that is fixedly installed on the ground during use to provide a stable support foundation for the entire semen collection frame.

[0025] A dummy sow platform 2 is provided on the right side of the base plate 1. An auxiliary climbing mechanism 6 is provided on the base plate 1 on the left side of the dummy sow platform 2. The auxiliary climbing mechanism 6 is used to assist boars in climbing onto the dummy sow platform 2. The auxiliary climbing mechanism 6 includes a guide sleeve 61, a moving rod 62, a climbing electric telescopic rod 63, and an auxiliary belt 64. There are two guide sleeves 61, which are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides of the base plate 1. The upper ends of the two guide sleeves 61 are fixedly connected by a rotating shaft, which is rotatably connected to the base plate 1. A moving rod 62 is slidably installed in each guide sleeve 61. Each moving rod 62 is driven to move by the climbing electric telescopic rod 63 installed on the guide sleeve 61. An auxiliary belt 64 is provided between the free ends of the two moving rods 62.

[0026] When the boar moves along the base plate 1 to the front of the dummy sow platform 2 and begins to climb, the guide sleeve 61 can be rotated so that the auxiliary belt 64 is placed on the boar's chest. Then, the climbing electric telescopic rod 63 is activated, which drives the moving rod 62 to extend upward, thereby helping the boar's front body to lift upward, making it easier for the boar to climb onto the dummy sow platform 2.

[0027] The right end of the base plate 1 is provided with a height-adjustable electric telescopic rod 3. The bottom of the height-adjustable electric telescopic rod 3 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1. A dummy sow platform 2 is provided on the telescopic rod of the height-adjustable electric telescopic rod 3. In use, the dummy sow platform 2 can be moved up and down by the height-adjustable electric telescopic rod, so that the boar can climb at a lower position during the climbing process. After the boar's forelimbs have climbed onto the dummy sow platform 2, the height-adjustable electric telescopic rod 3 is used to raise the dummy sow platform 2 to a higher position so that the staff can carry out semen collection operations on the boar.

[0028] A horizontal chute is provided on the artificial sow platform 2, and the front leg support rod 4 is slidably installed in the chute, so that the front leg support rod 4 can move left and right. The front leg support rod 4 passes through the front and rear sides of the artificial sow platform 2 and protrudes outward. The front leg support rod 4 is used to prevent the boar from slipping off the artificial sow platform 2. A left and right adjustable electric telescopic rod 5 is provided inside the artificial sow platform 2. One end of the left and right adjustable electric telescopic rod 5 is fixedly connected to the front leg support rod 4, and the other end is fixedly connected to the artificial sow platform 2. When the left and right adjustable electric telescopic rod 5 is activated, it drives the front leg support rod 4 to slide left and right.

[0029] When the boar climbs the artificial sow platform 2, once the boar's forelegs have just climbed onto the artificial sow platform 2, the electric telescopic rod 5 that can be adjusted left and right can be activated, which will move the foreleg support rod 4 from left to right, thereby moving the boar's forelegs to the right, assisting the boar in climbing to the right side of the artificial sow platform 2 until it reaches the designated position.

[0030] In this embodiment, the lower ends of the two guide sleeves 61 are connected as one unit by a connecting rod 65. The two guide sleeves 61, the rotating shaft, and the connecting rod 65 are combined to form a rectangular structure, which is stable and effectively avoids structural damage caused by excessive force on the connection point between the two guide sleeves 61 and the rotating shaft when lifting the boar.

[0031] In this embodiment, a rubber anti-slip pad 8 is provided on the substrate 1 to improve the friction of the substrate 1 and effectively avoid the technical problem of the boar slipping during walking or climbing.

[0032] In this embodiment, one end of the auxiliary belt 64 is fixedly connected to one of the movable rods 62, and the other end is connected to the other movable rod 62 through a strap buckle. In this way, the length of the auxiliary belt 64 between the two movable rods 62 can be adjusted to suit boars of different sizes, thus improving the applicability of the semen collection frame.

[0033] In this embodiment, the artificial sow platform 2 includes a base plate 22 and a top plate 21 disposed on the base plate 22. The top plate 21 is arc-shaped, and a cavity is formed between the top plate 21 and the base plate 22. The left and right adjustable electric telescopic rod 5 is fixedly installed in the cavity.

[0034] In this embodiment, a rotary motor 7 is provided at the bottom of the substrate 1. The output shaft of the rotary motor 7 is connected to the rotating shaft gear transmission. The rotary motor 7 is a stepper motor or a servo motor. The rotary motor 7 drives the rotation of the guide sleeve 61, which reduces the labor intensity of the workers.

[0035] The various embodiments of this application have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The terminology used herein is chosen to best explain the principles, practical application, or improvement of the technology in the market, or to enable others skilled in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
