Abstract

The utility model relates to agriculture, animal husbandry, in particular to improve the convenience of taking measurements from cattle. To increase labor productivity by accelerating the work of specialists in taking measurements from cattle, due to reliable fixation of the animal, preventing its longitudinal movement and turning in the device, as well as a flexible design that fixes the neck at different heights, a fixing device for taking measurements from cattle livestock, including two guides, on one of which the leaf is hinged, made with the possibility of its fixation by means of a bolt on the second guide; wherein the upper part of the flap is arcuate for fixing the neck of the animal by means of the upper arcuate clamp, has a bearing metal telescopic tube mounted on the first guide with the flap pivotally fixed on it, while one of the ends of the upper arcuate clamp is also fixed on this tube with the possibility of vertical movement in depending on the height of the animal to fix the neck of the animal, and a latch in the form of a bar with holes with a pin is installed on the second rail to ensure rigid fixation of the other end of the arcuate clamp and prevent longitudinal movement of the animal in the fixing device.

Description

The utility model relates to agriculture, animal husbandry, in particular to improve the convenience of taking body measurements in cattle.

Known veterinary machine for author's certificate No. 2112461 class. A61D 3/00 dated 06/10/1998.

The disadvantage of this machine is the low level of fixation of the animal's body.

Also known is a machine for fixing animals, including two guides, on one of which a flap is hinged, made with the possibility of fixing the bolt on the second guide; while the upper part of the sash is made in an arcuate manner for fixing the animal's neck by means of the upper arcuate clamp (RF patent No. 2139013 class A61D 3/00 dated 10.10.1999 - prototype).

The disadvantage of this fixation machine is the complexity of the design and maintenance, the insufficiently flexible system for fixing the animal's head, which is important for correct and accurate measurements.

The technical result is to increase the accuracy of measurements of the animal's body.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the fixing device for taking measurements from cattle, including two guides, a flap made with the possibility of its fixation with a bolt on the second guide; at the same time, the upper part of the sash is made arcuate for fixing the neck of the animal by means of the upper arcuate clamp, according to the utility model, it has a supporting metal telescopic pipe mounted on one of the guides with the sash hinged on it, while one of the ends of the upper arcuate clamp is also fixed on this pipe with the possibility of vertical movement depending on the height of the animal to fix the neck of the animal, and on the other rail there is a latch in the form of a bar with holes with a pin to ensure rigid fixation of the other end of the arcuate clamp.

The essence of the utility model is illustrated by the drawing, where in Fig. 1 shows a general view of a fixing device for taking measurements from cattle.

The fixing device for taking measurements from cattle has the following elements:

1, 2 - guides;

3 - bearing metal telescopic pipe with hinges;

4 - sash;

5 - bolt;

6 - arcuate clamp;

7 - pin;

8 - bar with holes.

A fixing device for taking measurements from cattle, including two guides 1 and 2. A flap 4 is hinged on the guide 1, made with the possibility of fixing it with a bolt 5 on the second guide 2. The upper part of the flap 4 is made arcuate for fixing the neck of the animal by means of upper arcuate clamp 6. A carrier metal telescopic pipe 3 is installed on the guide with a flap 4 hinged on it. One of the ends of the upper arcuate clamp 6 is also fixed on this pipe 3 with the possibility of vertical movement depending on the height of the animal. To fix the neck of the animal, on the guide 2, a latch in the form of a bar 8 with holes with a pin 7 is installed to ensure rigid fixation of the other end of the arcuate clamp and prevent longitudinal movement of the animal in the fixing device.

The height of the guides 1 and 2 is 1800 mm, the width is 200 mm, the material is wood. The distance between the inner surfaces of the guides is in the range of 600-750 mm, the outer - 1000-1500 mm. To the guide 1 is attached a supporting metal telescopic pipe with hinges 3 that hold the sash 4, which is made with the possibility of fixing the bolt 5 on the guide 2. width, by means of the upper arcuate clamp 6. One of its ends is hinged on the body of the sash 4 with the possibility of vertical movement to fix the neck of the animal, and the other end, when the clamp is closed, is rigidly fixed with a pin 7, which is inserted into the bar with holes 8, which prevents longitudinal movement animal in the restraint. The arcuate part of the leaf is located at a height of 800 mm from the ground, at the level of the cow's neck, for subsequent fixation from above with an arcuate clamp 6.

Fixing device for taking measurements in cattle works as follows.

In the initial state, the arcuate clamp 6 is lowered down and is in a horizontal position. Before launching the animal from which it is necessary to take measurements, the operator moves the arc-shaped clamp 6 from a horizontal position to a vertical one. When the animal's head is on the arcuate part of the sash 4, the operator returns the arcuate clamp to its original position, adjusting the height of the clamp based on the girth of the animal's neck, followed by rigid fixation with a clamp with a pin 7, which is inserted into the hole in the bar 8. After taking measurements, the pin is removed , and the arcuate clamp is moved to a vertical position. The bolt 5 is moved to allow the flap 4 to be opened, releasing the animal from the fixing device.

The design of the fixing device for taking measurements in cattle makes it possible to conveniently, safely and efficiently carry out zootechnical manipulations with the animal by rigidly fixing the animal's head with a flexible system for adjusting its height. This allows the device to be individually adjusted to each individual animal, taking into account its size.

Claims (1)

A fixing device for taking measurements from cattle, comprising two guides, a flap configured to be fixed with a bolt on the second guide; at the same time, the upper part of the sash is made arcuate for fixing the neck of the animal by means of the upper arcuate clamp, characterized in that it has a bearing metal telescopic pipe mounted on one of the guides with a sash pivotally fixed on it, while one of the ends of the upper arcuate clamp is also fixed on this pipe with the possibility of vertical movement depending on the height of the animal to fix the neck of the animal, and on the other rail there is a latch in the form of a bar with holes with a pin to ensure rigid fixation of the other end of the arcuate clamp.
