Description

  The present invention relates to a jig for holding a head of a domestic animal such as a cow, horse or sheep and attaching it to a headline that is used by connecting a rein, especially for identifying livestock with a function of loosening and knotting the knot. It is about a tag.

  Conventionally, for example, towing movement of domestic cattle is performed by inserting a nose ring into the nostril of the cow and fastening a tow rope to the nose ring, but the towing state is unstable when only the nose tip of the cow is fixed As a result, there were accidents where the towed cow broke and the nose column was cut, and the towed person was injured. Therefore, there is a method of attaching a head with a hook to the horn of the cow to the head. In particular, beef cattle in recent years have properties compared to conventional fattening cattle due to improvements for improving the meat quality. However, not only calves with short horns but also those that are shipped to the market are often dehorned. For this reason, it has been difficult to reliably hold the head with the type of bow that is hooked to the corner.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, a headband 3 having length adjusting portions 6a and 6b in which contact portions at both ends of the head holding portions 4a and 4b and the chin rest 5 are braided knots is used. ing. The head 3 is made of a double knitted string made of a strong chemical fiber, and is fastened to a fastener 2b of the upper nose (nasal ring) 2 with one end of the string divided into two forks. The chin-hook part 5 is provided across substantially the middle of the head holding parts 4a and 4b, and the head of the cow is securely held by attaching the headline 3, and towed in a stable state. In addition, the overall size can be easily changed according to the growth of the cow by loosening the knots of the length adjusting portions 6a and 6b and changing the position.

  In addition, for example, when the horse tries to raise the head, the lower jaw of the horse holding the muzzle in the mouth is pulled by the pulling force of the lane attached to the abdominal band at one end, and the head of the horse is raised. A head posture correcting harness attaching / detaching device that corrects the posture by preventing the movement (see Patent Document 1). On the other hand, a tag for livestock management (see Patent Document 2) including a data carrier and an antenna connected to the ears of livestock is also used for traceability management.

  However, when using the headline, there is a demand from the consumer that it is difficult to determine the position of the knot for adjusting the length (that is, it is difficult to find the portion to be adjusted) and it is difficult to release the tightly-tightened knot. For example, Patent Document 3 discloses an instrument for squeezing a rope by biting a serrated wedge into a rope, but there is no dedicated jig for breaking a tightly-tightened knot. Moreover, it is difficult to visually identify livestock individuals that grow day by day and change their appearance no matter how the breeder. In view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, the present invention facilitates the determination and release of the position of the knot for adjusting the length of the headline, and can quickly and easily adjust the size of the headline. It is an object of the present invention to provide a tag for identifying livestock that can be identified with a glance.

  For this reason, the livestock identification tag of the present invention is for length adjustment fastened to a braided braid with a string-like head holding part fastened to a nose-raised part of a livestock. The first feature is that a link portion having a window that can be fitted into a knot and at least one wedge portion that meshes with a knot string are projected on the inner peripheral surface of the window, A second feature is that a display unit is provided that can record the management record of the male, the date of birth, the weight / vaccination date, and the brand of the place of origin. The third feature is that the window is provided with a notch in which the separation distance gradually decreases from the outside to the inside of the link portion.

The present invention has the following excellent effects.
(1) The identification tag serves as a mark, and the user can easily determine the position of the knot for adjusting the length of the headline.
(2) The wedge part bites into the string, and the sticking force of the tag increases.
(3) Since the wedge portion of the tag is swung into the string, the knot tightly tightened on the string is relaxed and can be easily released.
(4) A breeder can identify a livestock individual with a glance.

It is a perspective view which shows the tag for livestock identification which concerns on this invention. It is a perspective view which shows the state which attached the tag for identification to the headline. It is a perspective view of a headline. It is a perspective view which shows the state which attached the headline to the cow.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a livestock identification tag 1 according to the present invention is formed by integrally forming a circular display plate 1a and a link portion 1b having a rectangular window 1e. The material of the tag 1 is preferably a flexible synthetic resin that can be injection-molded, that is, plastic. The link portion 1b is provided with a notch 1c for expanding the window 1e of the link portion 1b so that the link portion 1b can be fitted into knots 6a and 6b for adjusting the length of the head 3 described later. In this embodiment, the notch 1c is formed so that the separation distance gradually becomes narrower from the outer side to the inner side of the link portion 1b, so that the notch 1c is easily fitted to the string and is not easily dropped.

  In addition, a pair of wedge portions 1d that mesh with the strings of the knots 6a and 6b project from the inner peripheral surface of the lower edge of the link 1b, and the wedge portions 1d bite into the strings to improve the fixing force, and the wedge portions By swinging 1d while biting into the knots of the knots 6a and 6b, the tightly knotted knot of the string is relaxed and can be easily released.

  The display plate 1a is designed to be able to record the name of the individual animal, female / male, birth date, weight / vaccination date, etc., and the production brand, and is usually traceable to be attached through the ears of the livestock. In addition to the identification tag for the animal, the breeder can reliably identify the livestock by visual observation, and can also identify the calves that grow daily and change their appearance at a glance. Moreover, since the tag 1 of this invention is attached to the knots 6a and 6b which are the length adjustment parts of the head 3, the consumer can easily determine where to adjust.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the head is composed of a metal upper nose (nasal ring) 2 and a string-like body made of chemical fiber or the like. The upper part of the nose 2 is composed of an insertion part 2a formed by bending a brass rod in an annular shape and a stopper 2b. They are connected by 2c.

The head 3 is made of double braids made of strong chemical fibers. The stopper 2b of the upper nose 2 is provided with head holding portions 4a and 4b that are fastened with one end divided into two forks. The jaws straddle the substantially middle of the head holding portions 4a and 4b. A hanging portion 5 is provided.
Furthermore, braided length adjusting portions 6a and 6b are provided at the contact portions at both ends of the head holding portions 4a and 4b and the chin rest 5.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the usage and operation of the headband will be described. First, the insertion portion 2a of the upper nose 2 is inserted into the nostril of the cow and fixed by the fastener 2b. Next, the length adjusters 6a and 6b are adjusted in accordance with the length of the cow's jaw to be attached, and the jaw rest 5 is hooked on the cow's jaw. And the both ends of head holding | maintenance part 4a and 4b are turned around the back head of a cow, and are fastened. When towing a cow, a tow rope is fastened to the upper nose 2 for use. Moreover, when removing the whole headline, you may attach the identification tag 1 to the knot of a back head, and may use it.

  In addition, the structure of the wedge part 1d of the link part 1b in the present invention can be applied to an article that is required to release the knot of the string, for example, a shoelace, a mooring rope for a ship, a mountain climbing sail, and the like. . Further, if at least one wedge portion 1d is provided, the desired effect can be achieved, but it is desirable to provide a number corresponding to the number of meshes to be engaged. Further, by forming the display plate 1a into an ellipse, a triangle, a rectangle, other polygons, a star shape, or the like as well as a perfect circle, it is possible to obtain further discriminating power. The eye catching effect can also be enhanced by coloring.
