Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of livestock breeding equipment technology, and in particular to a locking device for a cattle pen. Background Technology

[0002] Breeding cattle enclosures effectively limit the activity range of breeding cattle, preventing them from getting lost or accidentally mixing with cattle from different groups. This is crucial for maintaining bloodline purity and management order, and is a standard feature of modern scientific breeding. Typically, after the breeding cattle are enclosed in the enclosure, the enclosure needs to be locked with a locking device to prevent them from running away.

[0003] However, existing fence locking devices typically use ropes or pins for locking. Because breeding cattle are strong, the locking devices for breeding cattle fences need to withstand frequent physical impacts. The ropes mentioned above are susceptible to wear, aging, or slippage, allowing the cattle to easily break free and escape the fence. Pins are prone to failure due to corrosion, deformation, or impact from the cattle. In other words, existing fence locking devices have poor stability. Based on this, this application proposes a locking device for breeding cattle fences. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a locking device for cattle enclosures to solve the technical problems described in the background section above.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application adopts the following technical solution: This application provides a locking device for cattle fences, comprising: a first type of cattle fence body, wherein a first connecting rod is provided on the first type of cattle fence body; The second type of cattle fence body is provided with a second connecting rod and a third connecting rod located below the second connecting rod, the third connecting rod being parallel to the second connecting rod; In the case where the first type of cattle fence body is connected to the second type of cattle fence body, the first connecting rod vertically penetrates and extends between the second connecting rod and the third connecting rod; A locking assembly is mounted on the second connecting rod by fasteners and abuts against the side wall of the first connecting rod away from the second type of cattle fence body, for locking the first type of cattle fence body and the second type of cattle fence body together.

[0006] Optionally, the first type of cattle fence body and the second type of cattle fence body have the same structure; The first type of cattle fence body includes two horizontal support rods and multiple vertical support rods; Multiple vertical support rods are evenly spaced between two horizontal support rods, and the top and bottom ends of each vertical support rod are fixedly connected to the two horizontal support rods respectively. The first connecting rod is disposed on the vertical support rod of the first type of cattle fence body near the second type of cattle fence body, and the second connecting rod and the third connecting rod are both disposed on the vertical support rod of the second type of cattle fence body near the first type of cattle fence body.

[0008] Optionally, the horizontal distance between any two adjacent vertical support rods is 1150mm to 1250mm.

[0009] Optionally, each of the vertical support rods is provided with an anti-slip groove; The depth of the anti-slip groove is 0.3mm~0.5mm.

[0010] Optionally, the first connecting rod, the second connecting rod, the third connecting rod, each of the horizontal support rods, and each of the vertical support rods are all made of a composite of 304 stainless steel and Q235 carbon steel.

[0011] Optionally, the locking assembly includes a first side plate, a top plate, and a second side plate; The first side plate and the second side plate are respectively vertically integrally formed on opposite sides of the top plate. The fastener passes through the first side plate, the second connecting rod and the second side plate and is used to fix the first side plate and the second side plate together with the second connecting rod.

[0012] Optionally, the distance between the inner wall of the first side plate and the inner wall of the second side plate is adapted to the outer diameter of the second connecting rod; The first connecting rod, the second connecting rod, and the third connecting rod are all square in shape; The length of the third connecting rod is less than the length of the second connecting rod, and the distance between the top surface of the third connecting rod and the bottom surface of the second connecting rod is adapted to the outer diameter of the first connecting rod.

[0013] Optionally, the first connecting rod is welded to the first type of cattle fence body; Both the second connecting rod and the third connecting rod are welded to the second type of cattle fence body.

[0014] The locking device for cattle enclosures provided in this application involves setting a first connecting rod on a first type of cattle enclosure, and setting a second connecting rod and a third connecting rod on a second type of cattle enclosure. When the first type of cattle enclosure body is connected to the second type of cattle enclosure body, the first connecting rod vertically passes through and extends between the second and third connecting rods, thereby achieving a primary connection between the first type of cattle enclosure body and the second type of cattle enclosure body.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application are described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are also within the scope of protection of this application.

[0019] refer to Figures 1 to 4 This application provides a locking device for cattle enclosures, comprising: The first type of cattle fence body 100 is provided with a first connecting rod 101; wherein, the first connecting rod 101 can be fixedly connected to the first type of cattle fence body 100 by means of welding or other methods.

[0020] The second type of cattle fence body 200 is provided with a second connecting rod 201 and a third connecting rod 202 located below the second connecting rod 201. The third connecting rod 202 is parallel to the second connecting rod 201. The second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202 can be fixedly connected to the second type of cattle fence body 200 by welding or other means.

[0021] In the case where the first type of cattle fence body 100 is connected to the second type of cattle fence body 200, the first connecting rod 101 vertically penetrates and extends between the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202, thereby realizing a one-time connection between the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200.

[0022] The locking component 300 is mounted on the second connecting rod 201 via fasteners 400 and abuts against the side wall of the first connecting rod 101 away from the second type of cattle fence body 200. It is used to lock the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200 together, thereby achieving a reinforced connection between the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200. This makes it less likely for the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200 to be knocked apart after being reinforced by the locking component 300 on the basis of the original connection, thus improving the stability of the cattle fence locking.

[0023] The locking device for cattle enclosures provided in this application involves setting a first connecting rod 101 on a first type of cattle enclosure body 100, and setting a second connecting rod 201 and a third connecting rod 202 on a second type of cattle enclosure body 200. When the first type of cattle enclosure body 100 and the second type of cattle enclosure body 200 are connected, the first connecting rod 101 vertically penetrates and extends between the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202, thereby achieving a primary connection between the first type of cattle enclosure body 100 and the second type of cattle enclosure body 200. Then, the locking component 300 is installed on the second connecting rod 201 by fasteners 400 and abuts against the side wall of the first connecting rod 101 away from the second type of cattle enclosure body 200, thereby locking the first type of cattle enclosure body 100 and the second type of cattle enclosure body 200 together, thus achieving a reinforced connection between the first type of cattle enclosure body 100 and the second type of cattle enclosure body 200. In other words, compared with the prior art, this application, based on the initial connection between the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200 through the first connecting rod 101 vertically penetrating and extending between the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202, further strengthens the connection between the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200 through the locking assembly 300. This makes it less likely for the first type of cattle fence body 100 or the second type of cattle fence body 200 to be knocked open when the breeding cattle collide with it, thereby improving the stability of the cattle fence locking.

[0024] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200 in this application have the same structure; wherein, the bottom of the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200 can be fixedly connected to the reference surface for installing the cattle fence by means of anchor bolts or the like.

[0025] In addition, the first type of cattle fence body 100 includes two horizontal support rods 102 and multiple vertical support rods 103; specifically, the multiple vertical support rods 103 are equally spaced between the two horizontal support rods 102, and the top and bottom ends of each vertical support rod 103 are fixedly connected to the two horizontal support rods 102 respectively; wherein, the first connecting rod 101 is disposed on the vertical support rod 103 of the first type of cattle fence body 100 near the second type of cattle fence body 200, and the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202 are both disposed on the vertical support rod 103 of the second type of cattle fence body 200 near the first type of cattle fence body 100.

[0026] In the above embodiments, a first type of cattle fence body 100 and a second type of cattle fence body 200 are formed by arranging two vertical support rods 103 at equal intervals between two horizontal support rods 102 and fixing them to the horizontal support rods 102. Then, a first connecting rod 101 is made to vertically penetrate and extend between the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202, thereby achieving a one-time connection between the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200. Then, a locking component 300 is installed on the second connecting rod 201 by fasteners 400 and abuts against the side wall of the first connecting rod 101 away from the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200, thereby locking the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200 together, thereby achieving a reinforced connection between the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200, thereby improving the stability of the cattle fence locking.

[0027] In some embodiments, each horizontal support rod 102 and each vertical support rod 103 in this application is provided with a protective layer; wherein, the protective layer is a zinc-nickel alloy plating layer, the purpose of which is to delay the corrosion of the horizontal support rod 102 and the vertical support rod 103, thereby improving the service life of the horizontal support rod 102 and the vertical support rod 103.

[0028] In addition, the thickness of the protective layer is greater than or equal to 50 μm. A thinner protective layer may result in weaker rust prevention for the horizontal support rod 102 and the vertical support rod 103. Therefore, the thickness of the protective layer needs to be greater than or equal to a minimum value, and in this application, the thickness is greater than or equal to 50 μm, enabling the protective layer to delay corrosion of the horizontal support rod 102 and the vertical support rod 103.

[0029] In some embodiments, the horizontal distance between any two adjacent vertical support rods 103 in this application is 1150mm to 1250mm.

[0030] In the above embodiments, the vertical support rods 103 are provided to ensure the stability of the first type of cattle fence body 100 and the second type of cattle fence body 200, while preventing breeding cattle from squeezing out between each pair of adjacent vertical support rods 103. The horizontal distance between each pair of adjacent vertical support rods 103 is 1150mm to 1250mm, which is less than the shoulder width of typical breeding cattle. Therefore, a horizontal distance of 1150mm to 1250mm between each pair of adjacent vertical support rods 103 can prevent breeding cattle from squeezing out between each pair of adjacent vertical support rods 103.

[0031] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2Each vertical support rod 103 in this application is provided with an anti-slip groove 1031; wherein, the anti-slip groove 1031 can increase the friction between the breeding cattle and the first breeding cattle fence body 100 and the second breeding cattle fence body 200, reducing the risk of the breeding cattle falling down due to slipping.

[0032] Furthermore, the depth of the anti-slip groove 1031 is 0.3mm to 0.5mm. If the anti-slip groove 1031 is too deep, the overall weight of each vertical support rod 103 will be lighter, thus reducing its supporting stability. If the anti-slip groove 1031 is too shallow, its anti-slip effect will be insignificant. Therefore, the anti-slip groove 1031 needs to have a suitable depth. The depth range of 0.3mm to 0.5mm given in this application not only ensures the stability of the vertical support rod 103 during the support process but also increases the friction between the bull and the vertical support rod 103.

[0033] In some embodiments, the first connecting rod 101, the second connecting rod 201, the third connecting rod 202, each horizontal support rod 102, and each vertical support rod 103 in this application are all made of a composite of 304 stainless steel and Q235 carbon steel. Since the composite of 304 stainless steel and Q235 carbon steel possesses excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and good mechanical properties, the service life of the first connecting rod 101, the second connecting rod 201, the third connecting rod 202, each horizontal support rod 102, and each vertical support rod 103 made from this composite material is extended.

[0034] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 The locking assembly 300 in this application includes a first side plate 301, a top plate 302, and a second side plate 303. Specifically, the first side plate 301 and the second side plate 303 are respectively vertically and integrally formed on opposite sides of the top plate 302. Fasteners 400 pass through the first side plate 301, the second connecting rod 201, and the second side plate 303 and are used to fix the first side plate 301 and the second side plate 303 together with the second connecting rod 201. The fasteners 400 can be bolts and nuts. The first side plate 301 and the second side plate 303 are each provided with a first threaded through hole, and the second connecting rod 201 is provided with a second threaded through hole. The second threaded through holes correspond one-to-one with the two first threaded through holes.

[0035] In the above embodiment, the screw end of the fastening bolt passes through the first threaded through hole on the first side plate 301, the second threaded through hole on the second side plate 303, and the nut is screwed onto the fastening bolt and abuts against the outer wall of the second side plate 303. This fixes the first side plate 301 and the second side plate 303 together with the second connecting rod 201, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the first side plate 301 and the second side plate 303 and the second connecting rod 201. Moreover, when the breeding cattle need to be released, the above connection method facilitates the disassembly of the first side plate 301 and the second side plate 303 and the second connecting rod 201, thereby improving the convenience of installing and disassembling the locking assembly 300.

[0036] In some embodiments, the distance between the inner wall of the first side plate 301 and the inner wall of the second side plate 303 in this application is adapted to the outer diameter of the second connecting rod 201, so that the second connecting rod 201 can be more stably clamped between the first side plate 301 and the second side plate 303, thereby improving the stability of the second connecting rod 201.

[0037] In addition, the first connecting rod 101, the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202 are all square; among them, compared with round rods, square rods are less prone to rotation, so the square first connecting rod 101, the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202 have higher stability during the fence locking process.

[0038] Specifically, the length of the third connecting rod 202 is shorter than the length of the second connecting rod 201. This ensures that when the locking assembly 300 is installed on the second connecting rod 201, the third connecting rod 202 will not interfere with the installation of the locking assembly 300, thus ensuring that the locking assembly 300 can be smoothly installed on the second connecting rod 201. Furthermore, the distance between the top surface of the third connecting rod 202 and the bottom surface of the second connecting rod 201 is adapted to the outer diameter of the first connecting rod 101. This allows the first connecting rod 101 to be stably clamped between the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202, and minimizes the possibility of rotation of the first connecting rod 101.

[0039] In some embodiments, the first connecting rod 101 in this application is welded to the first type of cattle fence body 100, which improves the stability of the connection between the first connecting rod 101 and the first type of cattle fence body 100.

[0040] In addition, the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202 are both welded to the second type of cattle fence body 200, which improves the stability of the connection between the second connecting rod 201 and the third connecting rod 202 and the second type of cattle fence body 200.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them; although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
