Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural and animal husbandry technology, and more specifically, to a movable semen collection and restraint frame for breeding cattle. Background Technology

[0002] In cattle breeding, semen collection is a crucial step in artificial insemination, and the semen collection frame is an essential tool in the artificial insemination process. Currently, there are no specialized manufacturers or institutions producing these frames domestically or internationally, and in most cases, self-made steel frames are used.

[0003] In practice, most breeding cattle semen collection involves leading the cattle to a fixed location. This process causes the cattle to leave their familiar environment, and the stress caused by transportation or unfamiliar surroundings can lead to struggles during collection, decreased semen activity, or even waste. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a movable semen collection restraint frame for breeding cattle to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

An electric push rod is fixedly connected to the inner side of each guide frame. A crossbar is fixedly connected to the top of each electric push rod. The outer side of the crossbar is slidably connected to the inner side of the guide frame. A limit rod is fixedly connected to the inner side of the crossbar. A positioning seat is slidably connected to the outer side of the limit rod. The outer side of the positioning seat is slidably connected to the inner side of the crossbar. A movable positioning mechanism is provided at the bottom of the base frame. The movable positioning mechanism includes multiple fixed frames. One side of each fixed frame is fixedly connected to the outer side of the base frame. Two springs are fixedly connected to the inner side of each fixed frame. One end of each spring is fixed... A locking block is fixedly connected to the base frame. The outer side of the locking block is slidably connected to the inner side of the fixed frame. An outer cylinder is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame. A first insert rod is slidably connected to the inner side of the outer cylinder. Multiple casters are fixedly connected to the bottom of the base frame. Two guide rods are fixedly connected to the outer side of the first insert rod. The outer side of the guide rod is slidably connected to the inner side of the spring. A pointed block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first insert rod. A pad is fixedly connected to the top of the first insert rod. Multiple insertion holes are opened on the inner side of the first insert rod. A pin is inserted into one side of the fixed frame. The outer side of the pin is inserted into the inner side of the insertion hole. The inner side of the pin is engaged with the outer side of the locking block. Front and rear protective mechanisms are provided on the top of the base frame.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution: using casters to move the base frame, and inserting multiple rods and pointed blocks into the soil at an angle, the base frame can maintain stability during semen collection by using multiple rods and pointed blocks to create a certain gripping force on the soil.

[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution: the front and rear protective mechanism includes two sliding frames, the bottom of the sliding frames is slidably connected to the top of the base frame, a push plate is provided on the outer side of the sliding frame, two insert rods are fixedly connected to one side of the push plate, the outer side of the insert rods penetrates through the sliding frame and the inner side of the base frame, a stop rod is inserted into the inner side of the sliding frame, two supports are fixedly connected to the top of the base frame, a sliding groove is opened on one side of the support, a push plate is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding groove, a push plate is provided on the outer side of the support, two insert rods are fixedly connected to one side of the push plate, the outer side of the insert rods penetrates through the outer side of the support and extends to the inner side of the stop rod.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the forelimbs and hindlimbs of the breeding cattle can be restricted by moving the support and the barrier, so as to avoid the breeding cattle kicking their forelimbs or hindlimbs during the semen collection process due to stress, which could cause injury to the staff.

[0010] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] By setting up a mobile positioning mechanism, compared with the existing technology, multiple casters are used to allow the base frame to move freely, which increases the application range of the restraint frame. Multiple insert rods and pointed blocks are used to tilt and limit the soil, so that the restraint frame can maintain sufficient stability during the semen collection process of breeding cattle, allowing the breeding cattle to collect semen in a familiar environment, so as to maintain the semen activity of the breeding cattle.

[0012] By setting up front and rear protective mechanisms, compared with existing technologies, the forelimbs and hindlimbs of breeding cattle of different sizes are blocked by a barrier bar and a baffle, which reduces the cattle's movement due to physical discomfort during semen collection, prevents staff from being kicked by the cattle, and improves the safety of semen collection.
