Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of animal husbandry and veterinary equipment technology, and in particular, it is a cattle and sheep oral cavity opener for animal husbandry and veterinary use. Background Technology

[0002] In the treatment of medium to large animals such as cattle and sheep, oral examination and care are essential. This process requires the use of oral retractors to open the mouths of the animals so that veterinarians can examine and care for them. Traditional oral retractor equipment is manually operated, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive for farms with large numbers of animals.

[0003] A search revealed a Chinese patent document (authorization announcement number CN221600300U) regarding a mouth expander for cattle and sheep. The expander includes a fixed support block and a movable support block. A threaded adjusting rod is rotatably connected to one side of the fixed support block, and the movable support block is threaded onto the outer surface of the threaded adjusting rod. Two sets of mouth expanders are arranged between the fixed and movable support blocks. A fixed block and a fixed block are respectively fixedly connected to one side of each block. This invention adjusts the distance between the fixed and movable support blocks by rotating the adjusting handle, which in turn rotates the threaded adjusting rod. This indirectly adjusts the distance between the two expanders in the mouth expander, thereby adjusting the size of the mouth expander. Adjustment via a single threaded adjusting rod is not only simple in structure and convenient to operate, but also highly practical and improves the smoothness of mouth expander adjustment. However, the mouth expander device described in the above patent is manually operated. For farms and other facilities with a large number of cattle and sheep, batch manual operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content
