Description

Forgery and tamper proof animal tags {earmark for preventing forgery}

The present invention relates to forgery and tamper resistant animal ear tags, and more particularly to animal ear tags that can prevent illegal acts of forging or replacing ear tags attached to ears such as cattle and pigs.

Recently, many people are concerned about beef and pork due to diseases that occur in cows and pigs such as mad cow disease and foot and mouth disease.

People are reluctant to beef from a disease that is prevalent at the time to minimize the health effects that may be caused by eating beef and pork made from sick cattle or pigs.

In addition, consumers do not have any information about the products they have purchased, so they may wonder whether their products are from animals that have been ill, such as foot-and-mouth disease, which is not limited to consumers. This also applies to processors and distributors of livestock products.

This system records and manages information from the birth of a cow to slaughter, processing, and sales, and tracks the history of hygiene and safety problems quickly and attaches ear tags to the ear when the cow is born. Beef hygiene system (established on December 21, 2007) to be carried out is carried out.

A conventional ear tag is constructed as follows, and is explained by taking a cow ear tag as an example.

As shown in FIG. 1, a conventional ear tag includes a male indicator plate 3 and a female indicator plate 5 which are coupled to each other with a bovine ear 1 interposed therebetween.

In addition, a history of cattle is indicated on the male display plate 3, and an insertion portion 3a extending through the ears 1 of the cattle extends vertically on one surface thereof.

The tip of the insertion part 3a is sharply formed. More specifically, the tip of the insertion part 3a is provided with a locking part 3b having an outer diameter larger than that of the insertion part 3a.

In addition, the upper end of the female first display plate 5 is provided with a cap portion 6 into which the tip of the insertion portion 3a protruding through the bovine ear 1 can be inserted.

The cap portion 6 is formed with a groove 6a into which the tip end of the insertion portion 3a, that is, the locking portion 3b, can be inserted.

Then, at one end of the cap portion 6 is engaged with a locking body 7 which prevents the locking portion 3b inserted into the groove 6a from escaping from the groove 6a.

The locking body 7 is formed with a hole 7a through which the insertion part 3a can pass, and the locking part 3b inserted into the groove 6a is located on the inner circumferential surface of the hole 7a. The protruding piece 7b which prevents from exiting is inclined toward the center of the hole 7a.

Therefore, the insertion part 3a of the male display plate 3 and the cap part 6 of the female display plate 5 may be combined without being separated from each other.

In recent years, however, illegal activities have been carried out by farmers, distributors, etc., to remove the ear tag from the cow's ear and replace it with another ear tag.

That is, the male and female marking plates 3 and 5 were separated from the cow's ear 1 by cutting the insertion portion 3a of the male marking plate 3 penetrating the cow's ear 1 with scissors or a knife. Thereafter, the illegal part of the cutting part is combined with an adhesive method and replaced with another cow's ear tag.

Further, the tip of the insert portion 3a of the male marking plate 3 and the cap portion 6 of the female marking plate 5 are forcibly separated to separate the male and female marking plates 3 and 5, respectively. ), And then the cap part 6 and the tip of the insertion part 3a are combined with an adhesive method, and replaced with other ear tags.

This illegal replacement of the tag is not likely to give consumers confidence because diseased cows can be slaughtered as healthy cows and can be slaughtered as beef cattle. It provides a problem that the foundation of the hysteresis system is broken.

Accordingly, the present applicant has invented an animal ear tag so that it cannot be reused once it is removed from the animal ear to prevent illegal replacement of the ear tag.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above problems.

The present invention for achieving the above object, in the animal ear tag attached to the ear of the livestock livestock to indicate the history of the livestock, the ear mark is coupled to each other between the male marking plate and the female type between the ears of the animal Including a display plate, the male display plate, is integrally connected with the male display plate is formed protruding, insertion portion penetrating the animal's ear; A catch portion formed at the other end of the insert portion with an outer diameter greater than the outer diameter of the insert portion, and having a first groove formed at the center thereof; An insertion pin having one end inserted into and fixed to the first groove of the engaging portion and the other end having a conical attack member; A second groove formed along the protruding direction of the insertion portion inside the insertion portion; And a cutting prevention pin inserted into the second groove, wherein the female marking plate is integrally connected to the female marking plate to protrude and is spaced into which the other end of the insertion part protrudes through the bovine's ear. An additionally formed cap part; The first hole is inserted into the space of the cap portion, a first hole through which the other end of the insertion portion is formed, and a plurality of wing portions for preventing the engaging portion inserted into the cap portion from being separated from the space portion of the inner peripheral surface of the first hole A first blocking plate protruding toward the center of the first hole in the first hole; Is disposed behind the first blocking plate is inserted into the space portion of the cap portion, a second hole through which the other end of the insertion portion is formed is formed, and prevents the first blocking plate from being separated from the space portion of the cap portion And a second blocking plate.

According to the forgery and tamper proof tag according to the present invention, the locking jaw of the male display plate inserted into the cap of the female display plate is formed in the space of the cap by the wing of the first blocking plate and the protrusion of the second blocking plate. Since it is not blocked by double, it is difficult to separate the male and female marking plates except for artificial destruction, so that the cow's ear tag can be prevented from being altered or replaced.

In addition, since it is difficult to cut the insert of the male display plate by the cutting prevention pin with the cutting machine, and it is difficult to glue the insert with the adhesive even if it is cut, it is difficult to illegally reuse the tag of the cut cow with the adhesive. There is an effect that can be prevented.

The second flange 25 may be firmly coupled to each other, and like the male and female marking plates 10 and 20, it is preferable that the second flange 25 is made of a slightly hard rubber or plastic material.

Hereinafter, the animal ear tag configured as described above may be combined as follows to prevent separation and departure.

First, the insertion part 11 locking part 13 and the insertion pin 14 penetrating the ear 1 of the livestock livestock (cow or pig) are connected to the second hole 25a of the second blocking plate 25. The first hole 23a of the first blocking plate 23 is sequentially inserted into the first diameter portion 21a of the space S formed in the cap 21.

Here, when the engaging portion 13 passes through the first hole 23a of the first blocking plate 23, while spreading the wing portion 23b of the first blocking plate 23 in the radially outward direction Passed.

As mentioned above, since the wing portion 23b is formed to be inclined in the same direction as the protrusion direction of the cap portion 21, the locking portion 13 can easily pass through the first hole 23a. In addition, since the wing portion 23b has an elastic force, the wing portion 23b that has been radially outwardly restored is radially inward while the locking portion 13 is a space portion of the cap portion 21. It prevents you from getting out of (S).

Since the protruding portion 25c of the second blocking plate 25 is blocked behind the wing portion 23b, the locking portion 13 makes the wing portion 23b of the first blocking plate 23 stand out. It is difficult to exit the cap portion 21 while opening.

That is, the locking portion 13 of the insertion portion 11 inserted into the space portion S of the cap portion 21 is the wing portion 23b of the first blocking plate 23 and the second blocking plate 25. Since it is double-closed by the protrusion part 25c of (), it is very difficult to separate the male display plate 10 and the female display plate 20 which were combined once.

Even if the male display plate 10 and the female display plate 20 are separated by artificial destruction using a tool, the first blocking plate 23, the second blocking plate 25, and the insertion unit 11 may be separated. Since damage and deformation are applied to the locking part 13 and the like, it is impossible to reuse the male display plate 10 and the female display plate 20 by combining them.

In addition, since the cutting prevention pin 12 is inserted into the insertion portion 11 or the liquid material 30 is injected, even if the insertion portion 11 is cut by a cutting machine such as scissors or a knife. It is difficult to re-bond the cut preventing pin 12 of the metal material with an adhesive, or when the liquid material 30 is injected into the insertion part 11, the insertion part is filled with the liquid material. It is difficult to rebond the cut portion of (11).

Accordingly, the animal ear tag according to the embodiment of the present invention provides an effect of preventing the act of tampering or replacing the ear tag illegally.

The present invention described above is not limited to the stated embodiments and the accompanying drawings, and various substitutions, modifications, and changes can be made without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. It will be evident to those who have knowledge of.
