[0027] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0028] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Reference Figures 1-4 This is the first embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides a storage structure, which includes a storage unit 100. The storage unit 100 includes a placement component 101, a cover component 102 symmetrically installed inside the placement component 101, and two limiting components 103 symmetrically arranged inside the placement component 101.

[0031] The placement component 101 provides installation conditions for the cover component 102 and the limiting component 103. The cover component 102 can control the opening and closing of the placement component 101 to ensure that the microelectronic data acquisition module can be stably located in the placement component 101 and to protect the microelectronic data acquisition module. The limiting component 103 can fix the cover component 102 to ensure the stability of the cover component 102 when not in operation.

[0032] Specifically, the placement component 101 includes a storage box 101a, two placement slots 101b symmetrically opened on both sides of the interior of the placement component 101, and a fixing shaft 101c fixed in the placement slots 101b. A protrusion 101d is left between the two placement slots 101b on one side of the storage box 101a.

[0033] The placement slot 101b provides installation and movement conditions for the cover assembly 102, the fixed shaft 101c provides rotational support for the cover assembly 102 to ensure smooth operation, and the protrusion 101d supports the cover assembly 102 to ensure its stability. The chamfered design of the protrusion 101d can cooperate with the cover assembly 102 to ensure that part of the cover assembly 102 can be completely inserted into the extension plate 102b to cover the storage box 101a and ensure the protection of the internal microelectronic data acquisition module.

[0034] Furthermore, a soft pad can be placed inside the storage box 101a at the part that contacts the microelectronic data acquisition module to further enhance the protection of the microelectronic data acquisition module.

[0035] By controlling the limiting component 103 to release the restriction on the sealing component 102, and by setting the torsion spring and the first spring 102a-3, the sealing component 102 is ensured to open smoothly. After the sealing component 102 is opened, the microelectronic data acquisition module is placed inside the storage box 101a. Then the sealing component 102 is closed, and the limiting component 103 automatically engages and limits the sealing component 102 to fix the position of the sealing component 102 and ensure that the storage box 101a is sealed.

[0036] Example 2

[0037] Reference Figures 1-4This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that it also includes a cover assembly 102 comprising two symmetrically arranged rotating plates 102a, an extension plate 102b movably disposed in the rotating plate 102a, an insertion hole 102c opened on one side of the extension plate 102b, and a cover plate 102d fixed on one side of the insertion hole 102c. One end of the rotating plate 102a is rotatably sleeved on the outer ring of the fixed shaft 101c.

[0038] The rotating plate 102a ensures that the cover assembly 102 rotates normally around the fixed shaft 101c. The sliding fit between the rotating plate 102a and the extension plate 102b increases the height of the cover plate 102d. When the torsion spring drives the cover plate 102d to open, the cover plate 102d can open smoothly to the maximum angle, ensuring that no obstruction occurs when the microelectronic data acquisition module is inserted.

[0039] Specifically, a torsion spring is provided at the connection between the rotating plate 102a and the fixed shaft 101c. A first groove 102a-1 is provided at one end of the rotating plate 102a. Two sliding grooves 102a-2 are symmetrically provided in the first groove 102a-1. Two first springs 102a-3 are provided in the first groove 102a-1.

[0040] Furthermore, the extension plate 102b is slidably engaged with the first groove 102a-1, and two sliders 102b-1 are symmetrically fixedly connected on the extension plate 102b. The sliders 102b-1 are slidably engaged with the groove 102a-2, and the two ends of the first spring 102a-3 are respectively fixed to the two ends of the first groove 102a-1 and one side of the extension plate 102b.

[0041] The first groove 102a-1 provides sliding space for the extension plate 102b, and through the sliding cooperation between 102b-2 and the slider 102b-1, the sliding distance of the extension plate 102b can be limited to ensure the normal operation of the extension plate 102b and prevent the extension plate 102b from moving out of the first groove 102a-1.

[0042] The first spring 102a-3 can provide a thrust to the extension plate 102b, so that when no external force is applied to the extension plate 102b, it pushes the extension plate 102b to move outward of the first groove 102a-1, ensuring that when the cover plate 102d is opened, the bottom of the cover plate 102d moves above the storage box 101a, ensuring that the cover plate 102d is fully opened.

[0043] Furthermore, sealing gaskets can be provided at the contact parts between the cover plate 102d and the inner ring of the storage box 101a, as well as at the joints of the two cover plates 102d. When the cover plate 102d seals the storage box 101a, it can ensure the airtightness of the sealed box and prevent water, dust and other substances from entering the storage box 101a and affecting the performance of the microelectronic data acquisition module.

[0044] Specifically, the limiting component 103 includes two second grooves 103a symmetrically opened on the protrusion 101d, a third groove 103b opened on one side of the storage box 101a, an insert block 103c and a second spring 103d disposed in the second groove 103a, and a rotating rod 103e rotating in the third groove 103b.

[0045] Furthermore, the second groove 103a is connected to the third groove 103b, and the size of the connecting section between the second groove 103a and the third groove 103b is smaller than the size of the second groove 103a. The two ends of the second spring 103d are respectively fixed to one side of the insert block 103c and one side of the second groove 103a.

[0046] Furthermore, the outer ring of the rotating rod 103e is provided with an annular groove 103f, and the insert block 103c is connected to the annular groove 103f by a connecting rope 103g. The connecting rope 103g is located in the connecting section between the second groove 103a and the third groove 103b.

[0047] Furthermore, the plug 103c is plugged into the socket 102c.

[0048] The insert block 103c is designed to be inserted into the socket 102c to limit and fix the extension plate 102b. The insert block 103c is slidably disposed in the second groove 103a to ensure that the insert block 103c can move normally to fix and unlock the cover assembly 102. The second spring 103d is designed to provide an outward pushing force to the insert block 103c so that the insert block 103c can stably fix the extension plate 102b.

[0049] The position dimension of the insert 103c through the protrusion 101d should be smaller than the dimension of the second groove 103a. This setting can match the corresponding insert 103c and limit the movement of the insert 103c, ensuring that the insert 103c will not be pushed out of the range of the second groove 103a by the second spring 103d, thus ensuring the normal operation of the device.

[0050] The connecting section between the second groove 103a and the third groove 103b is used to place the connecting rope 103g. The connecting section can be horizontally connected to the second groove 103a, or it can be inclined so that one end of the connecting section is tangent to the third groove 103b. Figure 4As shown, when the rotating rod 103e is rotated, the two connecting ropes 103g can simultaneously drive the two insert blocks 103c to slide into the second groove 103a. When the rotating rod 103e is rotated to the maximum angle, the end of the insert block 103c located outside the protrusion 101d is flush with the side of the protrusion 101d. This ensures that the extension plate 102b is released from restriction, and also ensures that the insert block 103c will not completely enter the second groove 103a, preventing the insert block 103c from getting stuck in the second groove 103a.

[0051] The rotating rod 103e rotates within the third groove 103b, and the length of the rotating rod 103e is less than the length of the third groove 103b. At this time, the rotating rod 103e is completely located within the third groove 103b. When worn around an animal's neck, this effectively prevents the rotating rod 103e from rotating due to the animal playing, which could cause the extension plate 102b to unlock and the microelectronic data acquisition module to fall off. The second spring 103d further prevents such incidents from occurring.

[0052] In use, initially, the cover plate 102d is closed. When installing the microelectronic data acquisition module, firstly, rotate both rotating rods 103e simultaneously. As the rotating rods 103e rotate, they drive the insert block 103c towards the second groove 103a via the connecting rope 103g. When the rotating rods 103e rotate to their maximum angle, the insert block 103c disengages from the insertion hole 102c. Through the action of the torsion spring, the rotating plate 102a rotates around the fixed axis 101c. When the rotating plate 102a rotates, causing the extension plate 102b to disengage from the protrusion 101d, the first spring 102a-3 moves the extension plate 102b. At this point, the cover plate 102d is raised above the top of the storage box 101a, making the rotating plate 102a perpendicular to the storage box 101a. Then, the microelectronic data acquisition module is installed. The data acquisition module is placed in the storage box 101a. After placement, press the cover plate 102d to make the rotating plate 102a rotate around the fixed shaft 101c. During rotation, the torsion spring is compressed. When the extension plate 102b contacts the protrusion 101d, continue pressing the protrusion 101d. This will cause the extension plate 102b to slide into the first groove 102a-1. When the extension plate 102b contacts the insertion block 103c, it will cause the insertion block 103c to move into the second groove 103a. After the insertion hole 102c and the insertion block 103c are aligned, the second spring 103d will cause the insertion block 103c to be inserted into the insertion hole 102c, limiting the extension plate 102b and sealing the storage box 101a. When the microelectronic data acquisition module needs to be removed and replaced, the above operation can be repeated.

[0053] Example 3

[0054] Reference Figure 5This is the third embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment is based on the first two embodiments. This embodiment provides an animal collar, which includes a wearing unit 200, and the wearing unit 200 is used to install the storage unit 100.

[0055] The wearing unit 200 includes a wide cord 201, a retaining ring 202 and a retaining pin 203 movably disposed at one end of the wide cord 201, and a limiting buckle 204 fixed on the wide cord 201. The retaining pin 203 is inserted into a retaining hole opened on the wide cord 201.

[0056] In use, the storage unit 100 can be fixed to the animal to be monitored by wearing the unit 200. The locking ring 202 and the locking pin 203 cooperate with the locking holes on the wide rope 201 to adapt to the necks of different animals, adjust according to the neck size of different animals and ensure its stability.

[0057] The rest of the structure is the same as in Example 2.

[0058] In summary, during use, first, the operating lever 103e is used to open the cover 102d. Then, the microelectronic data acquisition module is placed into the storage box 101a. Next, the cover 102d is pressed to close the storage box 101a again and limit the position of the cover 102d. Finally, the device is fixed to the neck of the corresponding animal through the wearing unit 200.

[0059] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
