[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of animal treatment technology, and in particular relates to a hoof fixation device for cattle and sheep. Background Technology
[0002] A veterinarian is a doctor who prevents, diagnoses, and treats diseases in animals. Specifically, veterinarians are professionals who use medical methods to promote harmony between the animal's (including wild animals, poultry, livestock, and aquatic animals) body, microorganisms, and the natural environment. This includes livestock such as cattle and sheep, and sometimes it is necessary to fix their hooves when treating cattle and sheep.
[0003] The applicant discovered a Chinese utility model patent, CN215606510U, entitled "Veterinary-Specific Cattle and Sheep Fixation Device." This device involves leading the cattle or sheep requiring treatment onto a base, positioning their hooves on the upper side of the base and placing them into a fixing frame. An electric push rod then moves the fixing frame inwards, while another electric push rod engages a retaining plate to fix the hooves in place. However, this device has some shortcomings in practical use. Cattle and sheep vary in size, resulting in different leg and hoof spacing. The device cannot adjust to these variations. Therefore, this application proposes a cattle and sheep hoof fixing device that addresses these issues. Summary of the Invention
