[0020] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, the drawings and description are considered to be exemplary in nature and not restrictive.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application includes a support frame 1, support legs 2, connecting pins 3, limiting blocks 4, folding joints 5, and fixing buckles 6. The support frame 1 is composed of multiple rectangular tubes hinged together by the folding joints 5, forming the main frame structure of the fence. It can be folded or unfolded as needed, facilitating transportation and installation, while ensuring the stability of the overall structure.

[0022] Support legs 2 are located at the four corners of the support frame 1 and are movably connected to the support frame 1 via connecting pins 3. This connection method allows the support legs 2 to flexibly adjust their height and angle under different terrain conditions, enhancing the adaptability and stability of the fence on uneven ground. The support legs 2 include a telescopic sleeve 21, a telescopic rod 24, a locking hole 22, and a groove 23. The telescopic sleeve 21 is fitted onto the end of the support frame 1 and can extend and retract as needed to adapt to different ground conditions. The locking hole 22 is located on the side of the telescopic sleeve 21 and is used to cooperate with the limiting block 4 to fix the support legs 2 in a specific position, preventing accidental slippage or loosening.

[0023] The limiting block 4 is located on the side of the support leg 2. When the telescopic sleeve 21 is adjusted within a certain range, the limiting block 4 can cooperate with the locking hole 22 to limit and fix the support leg 2, preventing it from shifting or falling off due to external force or other reasons, thus further improving the stability and safety of the fence. The fixing buckle 6 is located on the outside of the support frame 1 and is fixedly connected to the support leg 2 through the connecting pin 3. This structure can not only firmly fix the support leg 2 in the right position, but also quickly disconnect it when necessary for folding or transportation.

[0024] The fixing buckle 6 is also provided with a groove 23 for embedding into the outer surface of the telescopic sleeve 21, which can increase the fixing effect to a certain extent and prevent the fence from swaying or even collapsing in harsh environments such as strong winds. The folding joint 5 design between the support frame 1 and the support leg 2 allows the entire fence to unfold or retract like an accordion, which saves storage space and facilitates operation and transportation.

[0025] This foldable livestock fencing, through its structural design, effectively enhances the fencing's stability and wind resistance in uneven terrain. For example, in hilly or mountainous areas with significant undulations, the multi-segment telescopic function of the support legs 2, coupled with locking devices, effectively mitigates instability caused by the terrain, preventing structural deformation or tilting due to uneven ground. In areas with strong winds, the rigid structure of the support frame 1, combined with the fixing buckles 6 and limiting blocks 4, improves the overall structure's shear resistance and impact resistance, ensuring the fencing is not easily damaged or displaced by wind.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the telescopic sleeve 21 of the support leg 2 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application is connected to the support frame 1 by bolts, ensuring a stable mechanical connection between the two. The telescopic sleeve 21 is located at the end of the support frame 1, and its bottom surface is equipped with an anti-slip pad 7 to enhance the stability of the support leg 2 on the ground. This structure can maintain a stable fixed state when the height of the support leg 2 is adjusted, and effectively prevent slippage caused by insufficient ground friction. The way the telescopic sleeve 21 is connected to the support frame 1 ensures both the overall strength of the device and provides good adjustability.

[0027] Specifically, the bottom of the telescopic sleeve 21 has a mounting groove for embedding the anti-slip pad 7, and its side has multiple connecting holes, which are bolted to the corresponding positions of the support frame 1 to form a rigid connection. Other components of the support leg 2, such as the telescopic rod 24 and the locking structure, move and cooperate inside the telescopic sleeve 21 to ensure that the overall structure can be expanded or retracted as needed.

[0028] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the fixing buckle 6 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application adopts an adjustable structure, including a fixing plate 11 and an adjusting handle 12. The fixing plate 11 is embedded in the groove 23 of the telescopic sleeve 21 by elastic fastening. This structure is set on the outside of the support frame 1 and connected to the support leg 2, which can realize the stable fixation of the fence in the unfolded state. During use, the fixing plate 11 can slide along the groove 23 of the telescopic sleeve 21, thereby adjusting the overall size or angle of the fence to adapt to different terrain conditions. The adjusting handle 12 is used to fix the fixing plate 11 in a specific position to ensure the stability of the fence.

[0029] Specifically, the fixed buckle plate 11 has a protrusion at one end, which contacts the groove 23 on the surface of the telescopic sleeve 21 through an elastic fastening component made of elastic material, allowing the two to be embedded and fixed. The adjusting handle 12 changes the position of the fixed buckle plate 11 by rotating or pressing, while maintaining a stable connection between it and the groove 23. This structure ensures the stability and adjustability of the connecting components when the fence is folded and unfolded.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the bottom surface of the support leg 2 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application is connected to a screw rod via threads. An elastic element 13 is sleeved on the outside of the screw rod. The bottom of the elastic element 13 contacts the top surface of the base 8, and the top of the elastic element 13 contacts the bottom surface of the support leg 2. This structural design allows the support leg 2 to buffer external forces and maintain stability when subjected to impact or vibration on the ground through the compression and rebound action of the elastic element 13. The base 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the screw rod, enhancing the overall compressive strength and anti-slip capability, ensuring that the fence can maintain good support performance even under complex terrain conditions.

[0031] Specifically, the screw and support leg 2 are fixed by a threaded connection, ensuring the stability and adjustability of the connection. The elastic element 13, usually a spring or rubber washer, is installed between the screw and the base 8, serving to dampen vibration and provide positioning. The base 8 is fixed to the screw by welding or screwing, ensuring the safety and reliability of the overall structure, while also facilitating later maintenance and replacement.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, a sealing ring 17 is provided at the connection between the telescopic sleeve 21 and the support frame 1 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application to enhance waterproof performance and improve overall stability. The sealing ring 17 is located in the contact area between the telescopic sleeve 21 and the support frame 1 to reduce the corrosion that external moisture may cause to the internal structure. The sealing ring 17 has a certain degree of elasticity, which can accommodate the slight displacement that may occur in the telescopic sleeve 21 during use, thereby ensuring the airtightness of the connection. At the same time, the presence of the sealing ring 17 can also reduce the risk of loosening of the connection due to vibration or frequent folding, and improve the stability and durability of the overall structure.

[0033] Specifically, the telescopic sleeve 21 is connected to the support frame 1 by welding or snap-fit. The sealing ring 17 is set in the groove of the contact surface between the two, and achieves a sealing effect through compression deformation. The sealing ring 17 is made of rubber or silicone material, which has good weather resistance and anti-aging properties, and can adapt to the use conditions in different environments. During installation, the telescopic sleeve 21 is first put on the end of the support frame 1, and then the sealing ring 17 is inserted into the mating position to ensure that the contact surfaces between the two are tightly fitted to achieve an effective sealing effect.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the connecting pin 3 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application has a detachable structure, with one end extending through the telescopic sleeve 21 from the outside of the support frame 1. This structure allows the connecting pin 3 to achieve a movable connection with the support frame 1 and the telescopic sleeve 21, and enables the separation or reassembly of components through disassembly. The setting of the connecting pin 3 enhances the flexibility and adjustability of the fence during use, while ensuring the stability of the structure. The support frame 1 and the support legs 2 establish a movable connection relationship through the connecting pin 3, providing the necessary conditions for the folding and unfolding of the entire fence.

[0035] Specifically, one end of the connecting pin 3 has a threaded structure that mates with the mounting hole on the outside of the support frame 1 and is secured by a nut; the other end is embedded inside the telescopic sleeve 21, allowing it to rotate within a certain range and remain fixed. This connection method ensures the stability of the connecting pin 3 while retaining its detachable nature, facilitating daily maintenance and transportation.

[0036] like Figures 1-3As shown, in one embodiment, the support leg 2 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application has inclined surfaces 19 on both sides of the groove 23 to reduce the resistance encountered by the fixing ring 6 during insertion. These inclined surfaces 19 are located on both sides of the groove 23 on the outer surface of the support leg 2, allowing the fixing ring 6 to slide more smoothly into the groove 23 during insertion, reducing friction and installation difficulty. This design effectively optimizes the connection process between the fixing ring 6 and the support leg 2, improving ease of use.

[0037] For example, a groove 23 structure can be machined on the outer surface of the telescopic sleeve 21 of the support leg 2, and a certain angle of inclined surface structure can be set at the corresponding position on both sides of the groove 23 to ensure a natural transition between the inclined surface 19 and the groove 23, thereby ensuring that the fixing buckle 6 can be smoothly positioned and stably fixed when embedded.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the bottom surface of the telescopic sleeve 21 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application is provided with a telescopic rod 24. The telescopic rod 24 is connected to the telescopic sleeve 21 by a sliding manner, so that the telescopic rod 24 can reciprocate along the axial direction of the telescopic sleeve 21. One end of the limiting block 4 penetrates into the interior of the telescopic rod 24 and maintains contact with the telescopic rod 24, thereby achieving limiting control of the telescopic rod 24 during the retraction of the support leg 2. The telescopic sleeve 21 is fixedly connected to the support frame 1, while the telescopic rod 24 adjusts the overall height and stability of the support leg 2 by its own displacement.

[0039] For example, the telescopic sleeve 21 is fixed to the end of the support frame 1, and its bottom surface has a groove 23 structure for accommodating the telescopic rod 24. The telescopic rod 24 is embedded in the telescopic sleeve 21 and can slide within it. The limiting block 4 is provided on the side of the support leg 2, one end of which passes through the wall of the telescopic sleeve 21 and fits tightly against the telescopic rod 24. When the support leg 2 is subjected to external force and retracts, the limiting block 4 can slide on the surface of the telescopic rod 24 and eventually lock into a predetermined position, thereby limiting the retraction process.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment, the fixing buckle 6 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application is disposed on the outside of the support frame 1 and is fixedly connected to the support leg 2 by a connecting pin 3. The fixing buckle 6 has a U-shaped structure, and its inner wall is provided with friction stripes to enhance the friction between it and the telescopic sleeve 21. This design aims to improve the stability of the support leg 2 in the folded state by increasing the frictional resistance of the contact surface, ensuring that the fence is not prone to loosening or shifting during use. The telescopic sleeve 21 is installed at the end of the support frame 1, and the groove 23 is formed on its outer surface as the position for the fixing buckle 6 to be inserted and positioned.

[0041] Specifically, the retaining ring 6 is made of metal and bent into a U-shape. Its open end is fixedly connected to the outside of the support frame 1 by welding or screws. A groove 23 is provided on the outer surface of the telescopic sleeve 21, allowing the retaining ring 6 to be embedded therein and form a stable fit with the telescopic sleeve 21. Friction stripes are set on the inner wall of the retaining ring 6 by machining or laser engraving to improve the surface roughness of the contact surface with the telescopic sleeve 21, thereby enhancing the friction between the two.

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the telescopic sleeve 21 and telescopic rod 24 of the foldable cattle and sheep mobile fence of this application are provided with multiple limiting holes on one side. These limiting holes are distributed near the contact surface between the telescopic sleeve 21 and the telescopic rod 24, and are used to fix the telescopic structure in different length states. The number and position of the limiting holes are set according to actual usage requirements to ensure structural stability and ease of operation. The limiting holes not only improve the adjustability of the fence, but also enhance its stability during use.

[0043] For example, the telescopic sleeve 21 has multiple annularly arranged limiting holes on its outer surface, which form a detachable connection with the corresponding positioning pins on the telescopic rod 24, thus serving a positioning and locking function during extension and retraction. Simultaneously, the fixing components embedded inside the telescopic rod 24 cooperate with the limiting holes of the telescopic sleeve 21 to ensure that both remain relatively fixed in the extended state. This design gives the fence good adaptability and stability under different terrain conditions.

[0044] In actual operation, when this device is used, the support frame 1 is first unfolded to form the shape of a fence through the folding joint 5. The support legs 2 unfold from the four corners of the support frame 1 and are connected to the support frame 1 through the connecting pin 3. The limiting block 4 is inserted into the locking hole 22 of the telescopic sleeve 21 to fix the position of the support legs 2. At the same time, the fixing buckle 6 is embedded in the groove 23 of the telescopic sleeve 21 to further ensure the stability of the support legs 2, thereby completing the assembly and positioning of the fence, which facilitates the movement and management of cattle and sheep.
