Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] Industrial application field This invention is used for hoof-shaving, artificial insemination, castration, and cleaning of livestock such as cows and horses. Regarding the device for storing.

Prior Art and its Problems As this type of device, one disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 142022/1983 is known. This was devised by one of the inventors of this invention, and consists of left and right pillars installed on a platform at intervals that allow livestock to pass through, and hanging rods that are movable along the left and right pillars. A belt hung around the bellies of the livestock was passed to the left and right hanging rods, and the livestock was restrained by lifting the hanging rods along the poles, and it was able to achieve satisfactory results. However, it was not without its problems. The problem is that both ends of the belt, which is hung around the belly of the livestock, are pulled up in a fixed path to the support via the hanging rod, so it depends on the relative positional relationship between the livestock and the belt that is hung on it. In some cases, livestock are restrained while being forced into an impossible position, and the livestock dislike this and become violent. Therefore, as a result of further intensive research with the cooperation of co-researchers, the above inventor succeeded in developing a device that solved the above problems.

As mentioned above, the purpose of this invention is to provide a livestock restraining device that does not force livestock into an unreasonable posture while restraining the livestock.

Means for Solving the Problems The livestock restraint device according to this invention includes a livestock restraint frame into which the livestock is introduced, a holder that holds the body of the livestock, and a rope suspended within the holder frame. The holder is equipped with a winch for winding the rope, and a holder is attached to a pair of inverted U-shaped back support rods facing each other, and to the ends of the lower ends of both back support rods on the same side. A pair of belt hanging rods on which both ends of the belly belt are hung, and a hanging rod that connects the upper ends of both back support rods and has a rope end attached at the middle of the connecting portions. It is what it is.

Action When livestock is introduced into the frame, the trunk of the livestock is
By applying both back support rods from above, and hooking the belly belt to the belt hanging rod through the bottom, it is held in a holder, and when the rope is wound up with a winch, the livestock is gradually lifted up along with the holder. It's getting worse. Since the holder is suspended by only one rope, the holder can swing and tilt freely, so during the process of hoisting the livestock, the livestock can move freely within the frame to take the desired posture. Since it can be moved, the livestock is not forced into an unreasonable position. Furthermore, when hoisting livestock, it is not necessarily necessary to completely lift all of the livestock's legs. In fact, doing so will end up making the livestock feel uneasy. It is sufficient to hoist livestock to the extent that the livestock's legs do not have any strength and you give up on letting the livestock run wild.
