Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to animal metabolism experiments, specifically an animal excrement collection device. Background Technology

[0002] In broiler metabolic experiments, it is necessary to collect the broiler's excrement. However, broiler excrement is irregular, and if it is collected on the ground, it is easily contaminated by the environment. Furthermore, dander and feathers can easily mix into the excrement, affecting the experiment.

[0003] Therefore, in metabolic experiments, the general method for collecting chicken excrement is to fix a collector to the chicken's anus to facilitate timely collection of excrement; however, in the traditional method, after fixing part of the collector to the anus, a plastic bag is hung on that part, and the plastic bag is easily torn. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, in order to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings, this utility model provides an animal excrement collection device. The device detachably installs a collection bag at the vent of the broiler chicken, which can collect the excrement in a timely manner and avoid skin flakes and feathers from mixing into the excrement. The collection device can protect the collection bag with a protective sleeve to reduce the risk of the collection bag being torn.

[0005] Specifically, an animal excrement collection device includes a connector, a collection bag, and a collection bag mounting component;

[0006] The connector is fixedly connected to the animal's anus and has a collection hole adapted to the animal's anus;

[0007] The collection bag mounting component has a cylindrical connecting part that is detachably connected to the connecting component, such as by a threaded connection or a snap-fit ​​connection.

[0008] The opening of the collection bag is wrapped around the connecting part and is in an open state, and is then clamped by the connection between the connecting part and the connecting piece.

[0009] Preferably, the connecting part is connected to the connecting member by a threaded connection, the connecting member is provided with an internal thread, and the connecting part is provided with an external thread adapted to the internal thread.

[0010] Optionally, the lower end of the connecting part of the collection bag mounting component has a cylindrical protective sleeve.

[0011] Optionally, a bottom cover with vent holes is detachably installed at the bottom of the casing.

[0012] Optionally, the bottom cover is connected to the protective sleeve by a threaded connection, the bottom cover has an internal thread, and the lower part of the protective sleeve has an external thread that matches the internal thread.

[0013] Optionally, the animal is a broiler chicken, and the connector is sewn onto the broiler chicken's anus with needle and thread, and the connector has a small through hole to facilitate needle and thread insertion.

[0014] Optionally, the collection bag and the protective barrel are transparent and lightweight components.

[0015] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0016] The improved design of this invention allows for the detachable installation of a collection bag at the vent of broiler chickens. Through a well-designed protective sleeve, the risk of the collection bag being torn can be reduced.

[0017] Meanwhile, a threaded connection is used to detachably connect the connector and the connecting part. The collection port of the collection bag is then installed by clamping it when the connector and the connecting part are threaded together, and the opening of the collection bag is in the open state. This makes it easy to install and remove the collection bag and reduces the risk of the collection bag slipping.

[0018] To reduce the risk of the collection bag sagging after being filled with excrement, thus increasing the risk of the bag being scratched (as chickens are moving, their claws or cage parts can scratch the bag), a bottom cover is installed at the bottom of the protective tube to support and protect the bag. The bottom cover is threaded to the protective tube for easy installation and removal. Both the protective tube and the collection bag are made of transparent material, allowing staff to easily observe the amount of excrement for better collection.

[0019] Meanwhile, the bottom cover can support the collection bag containing excrement. If the collection bag containing excrement is in a downward and suspended state, the collection bag will shake significantly when the chicken moves. This significant shaking will cause significant pulling on the broiler's anus, thereby reducing the connection stability between the connector and the broiler's anus. However, by supporting the collection bag with the bottom cover, the shaking of the collection bag containing excrement can be reduced, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the connector and the broiler's anus.

[0032] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.

[0033] In this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, without necessarily requiring or implying any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0034] As described in the background section, in broiler metabolic experiments, it is necessary to collect broiler excrement; however, broiler excrement is irregular, and if it is collected after being discharged on the ground, it is easily contaminated by the environment, and skin flakes and feathers can easily mix into the excrement, affecting the experiment.

[0035] Therefore, in metabolic experiments, the general method for collecting chicken excrement is to fix a collector to the chicken's anus to facilitate timely collection of excrement; however, in the traditional method, after fixing part of the collector to the anus, a plastic bag is hung on that part, and the plastic bag is easily torn.

[0036] For the reasons stated above, this embodiment provides an animal excrement collection device, wherein the animal is a broiler chicken, such as... Figures 1-3 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the device includes a connector 200, a collection bag 300, and a collection bag mounting component;

[0037] The connector 200 is fixedly connected to the broiler anus 500 by stitching, and has a collection hole 201 adapted to the broiler anus;

[0038] The collection bag mounting component has a cylindrical connecting portion 101, which is detachably connected to the connecting component 200, such as by a threaded connection or a snap-fit ​​connection. The lower end of the connecting portion of the collection bag mounting component has a cylindrical protective sleeve 100.

[0039] The opening of the collection bag 300 is wrapped around the connecting part 101 and is in an open state, and is then clamped by the connection between the connecting part 101 and the connector 200 (e.g., Figure 2 (As shown).

[0040] Preferably, the connecting part is connected to the connector by a threaded connection.

[0041] For example, the connector 200 is provided with an internal thread 203, and the connecting part 101 is provided with an external thread that is adapted to the internal thread 203.

[0042] The aforementioned technical features enable the collection of broiler excrement. After improvement, the collection bag is detachably installed at the broiler's anus. With a reasonable design of the protective sleeve, the risk of the collection bag being torn can be reduced. The connecting part and the connecting part are detachably connected by a threaded connection. The collection port of the collection bag is installed by clamping when the connecting part and the connecting part are threaded together, and the opening of the collection bag is in the open state. This makes the installation and removal of the collection bag convenient and reduces the risk of the collection bag slipping.

[0043] To reduce the risk of the collection bag sagging after being filled with excrement, thus increasing the risk of the bag being scratched (because chickens are moving, their claws or cage parts can scratch the bag, and broilers may even peck at it with their beaks), in one embodiment, a bottom cover 400 is detachably installed at the bottom of the protective sleeve 100. This bottom cover 400 has ventilation holes. The bottom cover is connected to the protective sleeve via a threaded connection, and the bottom cover has an internal thread. The lower part of the protective sleeve has an external thread that matches the internal thread.

[0044] The aforementioned technical features reduce the risk of the collection bag being scratched, with the bottom cover providing support and protection. For easy access, the bottom cover and protective sleeve are threaded together, facilitating installation and removal of the bag containing excrement. Air vents are provided on the bottom cover 400 to ensure equal pressure inside and outside the protective sleeve, preventing trapped gas from affecting the expansion of the bag. The bottom cover also supports the bag, as a bag suspended in the air will sway significantly during chicken movement, causing strain on the broiler's anus and reducing the stability of the connection. The bottom cover's support reduces this swaying, improving the reliability of the connection between the connector and the broiler's anus.

[0045] To facilitate observation of the excrement collection within the collection bag, in one embodiment, the collection bag and the protective container are transparent and lightweight components; the transparent material of the protective container and the collection bag allows staff to easily observe the amount of excrement for better collection.

[0046] To facilitate the workers in sewing the connector to the broiler's anus, in one embodiment, the connector 200 is sewn to the animal's anus with needle and thread, and the connector has a small through hole 202 to facilitate needle and thread insertion.

[0047] To facilitate sealing the excrement inside the collection bag, such as Figure 11 As shown, a seal 301 is provided on the upper part of the collection bag 300, which can seal the collection bag containing excrement.

[0048] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
