Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of livestock and poultry breeding technology, and in particular to a pig insemination device. Background Technology

[0002] Insemination devices are equipment used in the field of animal reproduction. They are mainly used to accurately and efficiently deliver semen to the reproductive tract of female animals in order to improve the success rate of artificial insemination. In order to accurately deliver semen to the optimal fertilization position of the sow, and to combine cervical insemination and deep insemination techniques to improve the utilization rate of semen and reduce fertilization failure, pig insemination devices are required.

[0003] Pig insemination devices can be divided into several types, including cervical insemination devices, deep uterine insemination devices, and laparoscopic insemination devices. Cervical insemination devices are suitable for ordinary artificial insemination. The insemination tube enters the cervix of the sow but does not penetrate into the uterine body.

[0004] Existing insemination devices cannot provide real-time monitoring of the sow's uterus, making it difficult for operators to determine the depth and position of the insemination tube insertion, thus affecting the effective delivery of semen. Typically, farmers need to use additional equipment for observation, which not only increases equipment costs but also complicates the insemination process, thereby reducing the efficiency of artificial insemination. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a pig insemination device, which aims to improve the problem that traditional insemination devices cannot observe the inside of the sow's uterus and require separate observation through equipment.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a pig insemination device, comprising a fixing ring one and a fixing ring two, wherein a support rod one is fixedly connected to the top of both the fixing ring one and the fixing ring two, a support rod two is provided inside the support rod one, a limiting component is provided at the top of the support rod two, the limiting component can be used to limit and fix the insemination bottle, and an insemination component is provided at the bottom of the insemination bottle;

[0007] The insemination assembly includes an insemination tube, one end of which is connected to the mouth of an insemination bottle, and the other end of which is connected to an insemination head. A camera is connected to the outer wall of the insemination head, and the camera is connected to a signal transmission line.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0009] The limiting component includes a fixing rod and a limiting hole. The bottom of the fixing rod is arranged in a circular array and fixedly connected to the top of the second support rod. A limiting hole is provided in the middle of the circular array of fixing rods. The limiting hole can limit the mouth of the insemination bottle. The insemination tube can pass through the limiting hole and connect to the mouth of the insemination bottle. The body of the insemination bottle is fixed between the fixing rods.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] Both the second fixing ring and the first fixing ring have straps connected to their outer walls, and one side of each strap has a rough surface.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] Both the first and second fixing rings have hook surfaces connected to their outer walls, and the hook surfaces are in contact with one side of the rough surface.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The first support rod has a limiting groove inside, and the second support rod is slidably connected inside the limiting groove.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The top of the second support rod is fixedly connected with a bolt, which passes through the inside of the first support rod.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0019] A washer is provided on the outer wall of the bolt, and a wing nut is threaded onto the outer wall of the bolt.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0021] A massage head is fixedly connected inside the second fixing ring, and the outer wall of the massage head is provided with protrusions.

[0022] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. In this utility model, the insemination head and camera are first inserted into the sow's vagina through the insemination tube. The camera can be used to observe the inside of the uterus, which makes it easier for staff to grasp the depth and position of the insemination tube insertion, improves the accuracy of the insemination position, and achieves the effect of observing the inside of the uterus and insemination in one. This solves the problem that traditional insemination devices cannot observe the inside of the sow's uterus and need to be observed separately, thus improving the practicality and efficiency of the insemination device.

[0024] 2. In this utility model, both the first and second fixing rings can be glued to the hook surface of the outer wall of the first fixing ring by the rough surface of the strap to improve the firmness of the first and second fixing rings. Then, when adjusting the position of the second support rod in the first support rod, after the second support rod slides and adjusts into place in the limiting groove, the wing nut is rotated to fix it. This achieves the effect of improving the installation stability of the insemination device and facilitating the adjustment of the length of the support rod. It solves the problems of the relatively simple size of the insemination device, the easy escape when clamped on the sow, and the inconvenience of adjusting the position of the insemination tube and the sow, thus improving the convenience of the insemination device.

[0025] 3. In this utility model, the massage head on the second fixing ring cooperates with the protrusion to massage the sow's abdomen, thereby reducing the stress response of the sow during artificial insemination and improving the success rate of artificial insemination.

[0034] Reference Figures 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment of a pig insemination device, including a fixing ring 1 and a fixing ring 2. A support rod 3 is fixedly connected to the top of both the fixing ring 1 and the fixing ring 2. The support rod 3 provides support and stability, ensuring the entire insemination device is firmly fixed to the sow and preventing displacement during operation. A support rod 4 is provided inside the support rod 3, which can slide and adjust within the support rod 3 to accommodate sows of different sizes, thus increasing the device's applicability. A limiting component is provided at the top of the support rod 4 to fix the insemination bottle 8, enhancing its stability and preventing tilting or displacement during insemination, which would affect the insemination effect. The insemination bottle 8 stores semen and ensures it is not affected by the external environment during transport. An insemination component is provided at the bottom of the insemination bottle 8 to facilitate semen transport and improve insemination accuracy.

[0035] The insemination assembly includes an insemination tube 9, one end of which is connected to the mouth of an insemination bottle 8. The insemination tube 9 is used to deliver semen from the insemination bottle 8 into the sow's uterus, ensuring smooth and accurate insemination. The other end of the insemination tube 9 is connected to an insemination head 10, which is designed with a smooth, rounded structure to reduce stimulation of the sow's reproductive tract and improve insemination comfort. A camera 11 is connected to the outer wall of the insemination head 10. The camera 11 is used to monitor the inside of the sow's uterus in real time, allowing the operator to accurately determine the insertion depth and position of the insemination tube 9, ensuring the effectiveness and safety of semen delivery and improving the accuracy of the insemination position. The camera 11 is connected to a signal transmission line 12, which transmits the image information captured by the camera 11, allowing the operator to observe through an external display device, improving the visualization and accuracy of the operation. A massage head 5 is fixedly connected inside the fixing ring 2, used to massage the sow during insemination. The abdomen of the sow is massaged to reduce stress and improve the success rate of insemination. The outer wall of the massage head 5 is provided with protrusions 6, which can enhance the stimulation effect of the massage, promote the physiological response of the sow, and improve the success rate of insemination. The limiting component includes a fixing rod 7 and a limiting hole 20. The bottom of the fixing rod 7 is arranged in a ring array and fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 2 4. The fixing rod 7 is used to stably support the insemination bottle 8 and prevent the insemination bottle 8 from shaking or tilting during operation, thereby improving the stability and safety of the device. A limiting hole 20 is provided in the middle of the ring array of fixing rods 7. The limiting hole 20 can limit the mouth of the insemination bottle 8. The insemination tube 9 can pass through the limiting hole 20 and connect to the mouth of the insemination bottle 8. The body of the insemination bottle 8 is fixed between the fixing rods 7, which not only keeps it firmly in the designated position, but also allows the insemination tube 9 to deliver the semen in the insemination bottle 8, ensuring the stability and continuity of the insemination process and improving the overall reliability of the insemination operation.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 Both the second fixing ring 2 and the first fixing ring 1 have straps 14 fixedly connected to their outer walls. The straps 14 securely fasten the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2 to the sow, ensuring the insemination device does not shift during use and improving the stability and accuracy of insemination. A rough surface 15 is fixedly connected to one side of the straps 14. The rough surface 15 has a certain degree of softness, allowing it to form a firm fixation when it is attached to the hook surface 13, while avoiding discomfort to the sow's skin. Hook surfaces 13 are also fixedly connected to the outer walls of both the first fixing ring 1 and the second fixing ring 2. The hook surfaces 13 are attached to one side of the rough surface 15, and the connection is achieved through adhesion. The combined function enables quick fixing and disassembly of the strap 14, making the installation and disassembly of the device more convenient and improving the efficiency of insemination operations. It also avoids the problem of displacement of the insemination device due to loosening in traditional fixing methods. A limiting groove 16 is provided inside the support rod 1 3 to provide a sliding guide for the support rod 2 4, allowing it to slide smoothly and adjust within the support rod 1 3 to accommodate sows of different sizes, thus improving the applicability of the device. The support rod 2 4 is slidably connected inside the limiting groove 16, allowing its length to be adjusted according to actual needs, ensuring that the insemination tube 9 can accurately inseminate the sow. The device is precisely inserted into the sow's body, enhancing its flexibility. A bolt 17 is fixedly connected to the top of support rod 2 (4), passing inside support rod 1 (3). Bolt 17 is used to limit and fix support rod 2 (4), preventing displacement after adjustment and improving the stability and reliability of the insemination device. A washer 18 passes through the outer wall of bolt 17. The washer 18 increases the contact area between bolt 17 and support rod 1 (3), distributing stress and reducing damage to support rod 1 (3) during bolt tightening. It also enhances the fixing effect and improves the device's durability. The threaded connection has a wing nut 19, which is used to manually adjust and fix the position of the second support rod 4. By tightening or loosening the wing nut 19, the second support rod 4 can be precisely adjusted, so that the device can adapt to different usage needs and improve the adjustment convenience and usage stability of the insemination device. When the insemination device needs to be disinfected, the insemination bottle 8, insemination head 10, camera 11 and insemination tube 9 and other equipment are placed in a disinfection basin, clean water is poured in, potassium persulfate compound salt disinfectant powder is added, and soaking is carried out for 1 hour. After that, it is cleaned and the insemination equipment can be thoroughly disinfected.

[0037] Working principle: When using this pig insemination device, when first installing it on the sow, fixing ring 1 and fixing ring 2 are placed on the sow's back. Then, fixing ring 1 and fixing ring 2 can be glued to the hook surface 13 on the outer wall of fixing ring 1 through the rough surface 15 on the strap 14 to improve the firmness of fixing ring 1 and fixing ring 2. Then, when adjusting the position of support rod 2 4 in support rod 3, after support rod 2 4 slides and adjusts into place in the limiting groove 16, rotate the wing nut 19. The wing nut 19 rotates on the outer wall of bolt 17 through the washer 18, and then locks the support rod 2 4 and support rod 3 through the wing nut 19, thereby improving the installation stability of the insemination device and facilitating the adjustment of the support rod length.

[0038] When insemination is required, first disinfect the insemination bottle 8, insemination head 10, camera 11, and insemination tube 9. Then, fill the insemination bottle 8 with boar semen and fix it between the fixed rods 7 at the top of the support rod 2 4. Next, pass the insemination tube 9 through the limiting hole 20 and connect it to the bottle opening of the insemination bottle 8 (the bottle opening of the insemination bottle 8 can be equipped with a soft cap; insert the insemination tube 9 into the soft cap to connect it to the insemination bottle 8). Finally, insert the insemination head 10 and camera 11 into the sow through the insemination tube 9. Inside the vagina, when the insemination tube 9 is inserted into the sow's uterus, the situation inside the uterus can be observed through the camera 11. The camera 11 is connected to an external monitor through the signal transmission line 12. By observing the monitor, insemination can be performed at the accurate position of the cervix to ensure the accuracy of the insemination position. At the same time, the massage head 5 and the protrusion 6 on the fixing ring 2 work together to massage the sow's abdomen to reduce the sow's stress response. This achieves the effect of massaging the sow to reduce stress, facilitating observation of the uterus, and integrating insemination into one process.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
