Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sheep flock management technology, and more specifically to a multifunctional device for sheep flock management in pastoral areas. Background Technology

[0002] The number of sheep in pastoral areas accounts for 47.26% of the national total, concentrated in remote areas such as Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang. Their management suffers from labor shortages, as pastoral areas are sparsely populated and have a serious aging population. Traditional manual restraint of sheep requires 2-3 people working together, which is inefficient. Sheep flocks need to undergo vaccination (2-4 times), deworming baths (2 times), and pregnancy checks every year, but the decentralized equipment makes the operation process lengthy. Sheep are prone to stress reactions during repeated restraint and transfer.

[0003] Existing technologies rely on manual restraint of sheep (such as binding their limbs) and separate equipment for step-by-step operation (such as weighing first and then medicating). The processing time for a single sheep is more than 5 minutes, and the sheep are easy to escape during the movement process, resulting in low operational efficiency. The weighing cage, medicating pool, and pen facilities are separate, and repeated restraint increases the stress response of the sheep, resulting in fragmented device functions. Fixed fences cannot be moved with the pasture, resulting in poor site adaptability.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide a multifunctional device for managing sheep flocks in pastoral areas is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0057] Because existing technologies rely on manually binding the sheep's limbs for fixation, and use separate equipment, such as weighing first and then medicating, the treatment time for a single sheep is more than 5 minutes, and the sheep are easy to escape during the movement, resulting in low operational efficiency; the weighing cage, medicating pool, and pen facilities are separate, and repeated restraint increases the stress response of the sheep, resulting in fragmented device functions; fixed fences cannot be moved with the pasture, resulting in poor site adaptability.

[0058] In view of this, the present invention adopts the following solution: the solution is a multifunctional device for sheep flock management in pastoral areas, see attached document. Figure 1-10 It includes: a movable fence structure 10, a multi-functional limiter 20, a displayable electronic scale, a classification and sorting gate 30, an auxiliary loading ramp structure 40, and a medicine bath tank 50.

[0059] Multiple fence modules 10 are spliced ​​together to form a detachable fence structure, the fence structure having an open connection channel 11;

[0060] The multi-functional limiter 20 is a cuboid-shaped limiting channel, which includes a front limiting mechanism with an openable limiting port 21, a left limiting mechanism and a right limiting mechanism with an ultrasound operating port 22, and a rear door frame. A rear-drive lifting part 23 is provided inside the limiting channel near the rear door frame, and the rear door frame is located at the exit of the connecting channel 11. The bottom of the limiting channel integrates a weighing base with casters and a display electronic scale.

[0061] It also includes a sorting and partitioning gate 30 for diversion, an auxiliary loading ramp structure 40, and a bath tank 50. At least one of these can be selectively arranged in front of the front limiting mechanism, depending on the application. Options include using only the sorting and partitioning gate 30, or using the sorting and partitioning gate 30 and the auxiliary loading ramp structure 40, or using the ramp structure 40 and the bath tank 50, or using the sorting and partitioning gate 30, the auxiliary loading ramp structure 40, and the bath tank 50, depending on the application. This structure is not a random assembly of multiple separate pieces of equipment; all components are designed for seamless integration and use.

[0062] Using the above technical solution, the fence module 10 is fixed to the ground by inserting a conical column 101, and the canvas 105 forms a channel to guide the sheep into the multi-functional limiter 20; the sheep complete neck fixation (front limiter mechanism), can be examined by ultrasound (left or right ultrasound operation port 22), and can be lifted by rear drive 23 or weighed (electronic scale) within the multi-functional limiter 20; the classification and partition gate 30 diverts the sheep to the inclined ladder structure 40 for loading or the medicine bath tank 50.

[0068] The canvas 105 is connected to the connecting ring 102 on both sides by buckles 103;

[0069] A column foot plate 104 is connected to the lower part of each of the conical columns 101.

[0070] Using the above solution: the conical column 101 and the column foot plate 104 can be stably installed by a single person (force ≤ 50N), and the wind load resistance is ≥ level 8; the locking buckle 103 connects to the canvas 105, and can be quickly disassembled (disassembly time of a single module < 40 seconds).

[0071] The conical posts 101 are vertically inserted into the ground. The footboard 104 of the posts adopts existing technology to withstand the trampling force and allow the posts to penetrate into the soil layer by ≥30cm. Adjacent posts are aligned by connecting rings 102, and the locking buckles 103 close and fix the canvas 105 to form a 1.2m high fence.
