[Prior art]

 Conventionally, there have been many methods for confirming the current position of a movable body that can be moved arbitrarily and for controlling the movement behavior of this movable body depending on the moving body. For example, if the moving body is a vehicle such as an automobile controlled by humans or humans, a moving person or an automobile can be equipped with a wireless device, etc., and the current position can be confirmed by contacting with this wireless device. Furthermore, I was able to instruct the movement behavior.

As described above, it is preferable to use a vehicle in which the moving body is a human being or a person's will, but when the moving body is an animal, accurate contact and instructions cannot be made, and such a moving body It was difficult to confirm the movement status and regulate movement behavior in the area. For example, in the case of cattle grazing on a ranch, the area where animals can graze is generally surrounded by fences to prevent the animals from escaping, and this ranch is monitored to check the movement of the cows. In order to regulate the movement of cattle, humans and dogs were used to guide the movement of cattle to the barn, or helicopters were used in the case of a large ranch.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, as compared to the conventional movement of animals described above, the construction and maintenance of the fence of the vast ranch as mentioned above requires a lot of expenses and manpower, and the movement of cattle into the barn is necessary. However, there were drawbacks in that it required a lot of manual work and work with dogs.

The present invention manages the movement behavior particularly for the movement of the above-mentioned animals, and the purpose thereof is to attach an auxiliary device of the present invention to an animal that is a moving body and We are providing an auxiliary device for a moving body that can control the movement state and movement behavior arbitrarily.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The mobile auxiliary device of this invention is a position detection device that detects the current position by the satellite global positioning system (GPS) position detection system communication, a direction detection device that detects north, south, east, west, and date / time data. And a region setting device that sets a predetermined region by a control signal from the date / time generating device, and the position detecting device, the azimuth detecting device, and the region setting device.

[Action]

 According to this invention, a moving body position detecting device, a direction detecting device, a region setting device and a comparison / judgment device, a sounding, light emitting, and electric shock generating device are attached to the moving body, and an auxiliary device is attached to the moving body to perform a moving action. Can be controlled.

The above-mentioned position detecting device is a position detecting device utilizing position detecting system communication of a global positioning system (GPS) of an artificial satellite, and can always detect the current position of a moving body. Further, the azimuth detecting device can detect the azimuth of north, south, east, and west to which the moving body is heading.

The area setting device can set an area determined in advance by date and time by an output signal from the date / time generating device that generates date / time data. Output signals of the detection device and the azimuth detection device are supplied to the comparison and determination device.

The above-mentioned comparison and determination device can determine whether or not the current position of the moving body and the direction in which the moving body is moving are moving in the set direction within the set region. If the moving body moves out of the set area, or if the moving body moves in the direction opposite to the set azimuth, the comparative judgment device determines that the sounding device and the light emitting device are used. It is also possible to drive the electric shock generating device to generate audio output from the auxiliary device, further generate light, and further give electric shock to the moving body.

As described above, the moving body (animal) equipped with the auxiliary device takes action to correct its moving state and moving direction by the above-mentioned sounding, light emission, or warning by electric shock, so that the above-mentioned auxiliary device is The movement behavior of the moving body can be automatically controlled.

The area of the area setting device is set by date / time data. For example, when a cow on a ranch is led to a barn in the evening, by setting the area setting according to the set time toward the barn, By moving so as not to receive the above-mentioned pronunciation, light emission, or electric shock, it is possible to automatically lead to the barn.

As described above, since the moving body can be easily controlled in the set area and the set direction, it is effective for moving cows on a farm or the like, and a fence provided on the boundary line of the farm or the like is used. Can be unnecessary.
