Detailed Description
The principles and features of this application are described below in conjunction with the following drawings, the examples of which are set forth to illustrate the application and are not intended to limit the scope of the application.
As shown in fig. 1-3, the present embodiment provides a livestock face recognition device, which is generally installed on the upper portion or top of a fence 6 of livestock, and includes a mounting tube 1, a camera 2, a lifting mechanism 3, a connecting mechanism 4, and other specific structures; it should be noted that, in the present embodiment, only the structural connection relationship features of the livestock face recognition device are described, and the processor and the like pass through the signal transmission portion, the present embodiment is not described much, that is, the specific data processing, transmission process, recognition process and the like of the livestock face recognition device of the present embodiment can refer to the existing livestock face recognition technology.
Use the pig face to discern as the example, consider that the pig house scene is more complicated, the mode stability of using the fixed camera 2 of support is relatively poor, and the pig only collides and can arouse the picture fuzzy to if all structures of camera 2 all expose outside and easily receive external environment influence, and lead to 2 performance reductions of camera and influence its life, consequently, this embodiment improves the structure of installation pipe 1 at first.
This embodiment is equipped with the trompil (because camera 2 shelters from, this embodiment does not carry out the reference numeral to it) on installation pipe 1, and the quantity of trompil can be one in the picture, also can be a plurality of, and is specific, be provided with on installation pipe 1 wall with above-mentioned camera 2 shape and size assorted trompil, can make camera 2 embedded wherein through this trompil, play the effect of protection camera 2.
Preferably, the installation pipe 1 of this embodiment adopts the similar or the same metal material with rail 6 material to the two can leave the factory in a batch when producing, or directly draw materials from rail 6 and form the structure of installation pipe 1, the material of installation pipe 1 and rail 6 of this embodiment can be galvanized steel pipe or other steel pipe structures.
The camera 2 of this embodiment includes body and camera lens (not shown in the figure), and the body passes through the trompil and is embedded in installation pipe 1, and the camera lens sees through the trompil and is located outside installation pipe 1, or the camera lens part sees through the trompil and is located outside installation pipe 1 to avoid influencing the shooting function. Preferably, the size of the above-mentioned trompil of this embodiment and body size looks adaptation, or both are roughly the same, when the installation, can directly insert the body of camera 2 in the trompil, do simply fixed can, need not too much connection structure.
For make installation pipe 1 and camera 2 be in the optimum shooting height, the livestock identification equipment of this embodiment still includes elevating system 3, and elevating system 3 is connected with installation pipe 1 to be used for driving installation pipe 1 and go up and down.
In order to ensure the installation and connection of the whole device and the fence 6, the livestock identification device of the embodiment further comprises a connecting mechanism 4, the connecting mechanism 4 is used for connecting the fence 6, the connecting mechanism is preferably detachably connected with the fence 6, and the lifting mechanism 3 is installed on the connecting mechanism 4 to complete the installation of the whole livestock face identification device.
Preferably, the connecting mechanism 4 and the fence 6 of the present embodiment are detachably connected, and more preferably, the two connecting mechanisms can be in sliding fit or sliding connection, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the connecting mechanism 4; specifically, the connecting mechanism 4 may be provided with a sliding rail or a sliding chute, and the upper portion of the fence 6 is generally a straight steel pipe structure, so that the sliding rail or the sliding chute can be directly connected and matched with the straight steel pipe structure.
