Abstract

PURPOSE:To discriminate efficiently a moving object by operating a telemeter device, when the moving object to which the telemeter device is installed has passed through a magnetic shelf. CONSTITUTION:When a cow to which a telemeter device is installed is chased between loops 8, 8 of a magnetic shelf, a magnetism sensible switch operates, sets the telemeter device to an operating state, and a discriminating code of its cow is transmitted. This discriminating code is received by a receiver 10 placed in the vicinity of magnetic shelves 8, 8, and stored in a memory of a computer 11 together with a measured value of weight of the cow generated by a weight meter 6.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a moving object identification device for allowing a required device to recognize identification numbers assigned to moving objects, particularly animals.

Conventionally, in order to fully manage cattle, horses, etc. kept on farms, etc., it was necessary to assign a management number to each animal and manually input and store data such as its weight into a computer, or to equip a telemeter device with a receiving function and call it. It was common for hangers to respond to signals.

However, it takes a great deal of effort and time to implement the above-mentioned data implantation for these animals, which number from several hundred species to a thousand animals, and is extremely inefficient. There was a flaw.

The present invention has been made in view of the problems associated with the conventional management of animals, etc., as described above. The object of the present invention is to provide a moving object identification device in which the identification device is fully equipped with a built-in magnetically sensitive switch for connecting and disconnecting the moving object, and transmits the identification number etc. when the moving object passes a predetermined magnetic shelf. do.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a telemeter device, which is an identification device according to the present invention, in which the output of a code generator 1 that generates an identification number code for cattle being raised on a farm is transmitted from an antenna 3 using a transmitter 2. It is something that forces you to do something.

In this case, the identification number does not need to be transmitted all the time, so in order to extend the life of the battery 4, the identification code generator 1 and the transmitter 2 are connected to the battery 4 so that the transmission is performed only in specific cases. A magnetically sensitive switch 5 is interposed,
These are configured as small transmitters and are attached to appropriate places on the cow's body using a belt or the like.

Now, let us assume that the body weight of a cow equipped with the above-mentioned telemeter device is to be measured, for example, in order to manage the amount of feed to be administered.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a device for automatically measuring the weight of a cow using a telemeter device according to the present invention.

That is, slopes 7, 7 are constructed on the front layer of the digital weighing scale 6, and a pair of conductor loops 8.8 are erected on both sides of the weighing scale 6 with a width suitable for passing the cow's head.

On the one hand, direct currents of different polarities are applied to the loops 8, 8 via the power supply 9, respectively, to form a magnetic shelf.

On the other hand, a wireless receiver 10 is installed near the digital weight scale 6.
The reception signal and the measurement output of the weighing scale 6 are input to the computer 11.

The cattle weight measuring device constructed as described above operates as follows.

Now, when a cow equipped with the above-mentioned telemeter device is driven between the loops 8.8 of the magnetic shelf, the magnetically sensitive switch 5 provided in the telemeter device operates to activate the device and read the identification code inside. send.

This code is received by the receiver 10 placed near the magnetic shelf and input into the computer 11 together with the cow weight measurement issued by the weighing scale 6, and the cow identification code and the corresponding cow weight are input into the computer 11. 11 memory.

Similarly, it is difficult to maintain the cow's posture or the state in which the telemeter is attached properly at all times, so there is a risk that the magnetism-sensitive switch 5 may not operate normally due to fluctuations in these conditions.

On the other hand, if the magnetic field generated by the magnetic wire is made strong, there is a risk that the telemeters of other cows around the magnetic shelf will operate at the same time and the data to be recorded will be confused.

In order to solve this problem, for example, a plurality of magnetically sensitive switches may be connected in parallel so that each magnetically sensitive switch has a different direction of magnetically sensitive peak.

Further, the conductor loops 8, 8 of the magnetic shelves are made of a non-magnetic material such as a vinyl pipe, and are wound with electric wires, and a direct current is passed therethrough to generate a parallel magnetic field of the required strength between the shelves 8, 8. At the same time, it would be appropriate to prevent damage caused by cattle collisions, etc.

Since the moving object identification device according to the present invention is constructed as described above, it can be provided in a small size and at low cost, and since the power consumption is small, the identification device once attached can be left unattended for a long period of time. It requires no effort to maintain and manage.

Furthermore, since it becomes extremely easy to automatically collect individual data on animals kept in captivity, it is extremely effective in individually managing them.

Please note that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, but can also be applied to traffic management of goods, vehicles, people, etc. in automated warehouses, garages, event venues, etc. Needless to say, yes.
