Description

DESCRIPTION THE SYSTEM INSTANTLY NOTIFYING THE BIRTH OF OUTDOOR CATTLE Technical Area Meet; It is designed to be used in dairy farms and in these businesses, cow and To protect the health of the calf, to prevent calf losses due to birth, to give birth to cows and calves interventions (calf vaccination, colostrum administration, birth-related tears and bleeding, early intervention in postpartum diseases, etc.) State of the Art There are between 30 thousand and 40 thousand farms with 50 heads and above in Turkey. in our country and The number of dairy cattle farms in the world is increasing day by day. With evolution of technology However, different systems and methods are used in the farms where animal production is made.

Most of today's businesses have a herd management system. This system Electronic chips (padometer, responder, etc.) through the virtual environment, a lot of valuable information depending on the movements of the animals. can transfer. (For example, average mobility, estrus, cystic activity, health and well-being warning, manger visit, number and duration of bed and wake up etc.) Calving warning in this system There is an estimated tab called In animals taken to dry (close to birth) animals) to a mathematical average according to the increase in mobility and the number of lying and waking up. connected calving warning is given, but this warning is not an instant warning, it does not show the instant of start. Individual differences between animals in the herd management system cannot be taken into account and a warning is given according to a certain average movement.

The mentioned herd management system cannot meet the need and is subject to the calving warning. positive results are not obtained.

Some of the disadvantages of the herd management system can be listed as follows; - Herd management system birth 'Not specific, estimated based on average data warnings are given. This can lead to misdirections.

- The herd management system is fitted to all available animals on the farm, As a result, warnings may also come from non-pregnant animals.

The calving warning in the herd management system is not instantaneous. warning for an animal When given, the birth can take days, sometimes weeks.

The herd management system warns based on average movement. This is insecurity causes. Some animals have calm births, increased mobility detected and therefore no warning is given. some animals normal motility they give birth within the average, and some have too much activity. But Mobility is not only related to birth. Mobility in a stressed animal may increase or decrease. Depending on the activity in the herd, mobility may increase and false warnings may be given. Therefore, calving in the herd management system alert is unreliable.

Summary of the application with the number 2014/14401, which emerged as a result of technical research: Establishment of a mechanism inside the uterus in plastic parts and to the mucosa (inner surface) of the vagina the falling out of this apparatus at the time of birth (seamless) by being attached with the tension of the plastic part It is related to a system that notifies the moment of birth.

As can be seen, the system is the falling of the apparatus placed in the uterus of pregnant animals. As a result, it is related to the system that notifies the birth by giving a warning. There are disadvantages, these are; Infection in the vagina due to the adhesion of the plastic part by stretching the vaginal wall. (Vaginit) will happen. This is undesirable because the the infection may spread to the birth canal or even to the uterus.

Due to the above-mentioned vaginitis, the calf to be born passes through the vagina. It is an infective disease by getting microbes from the mouth, nose and belly areas that are open to infection. it can occur in a row.

The plastic apparatus is difficult to use on heifers due to their small vaginas. it could be.

When the birth canal part is opened, that is, if the calf enters the canal and gets stuck, it is inserted into the vagina. Since the plastic apparatus placed will not fall out of the vagina, it is a birth signal. does not occur.

When this product is first inserted into the vagina, the plastic arms attached to the vagina It will cause suffocation in the animal because of its reality. That product has given he will try to throw that apparatus out of his mind to relieve the discomfort. Pregnancy It is an undesirable situation to swallow during this time. It can throw the apparatus out with a push. f) Towards the end of the pregnancy, when the pregnant animal is lying on the ground, it is placed in the calf's birth canal. Sometimes the birth canal comes out of the vagina with the pressure it makes and the lips of the vulva can be seen with the naked eye. In the meantime, the plastic part is exposed to the pressure of the birth canal. falls out and may give an undelivered birth warning. Undesirable for reliability is a situation. 9) Due to the reverse positions of the calf at the time of birth, the plastic part in the vagina is pulled out. may not push. Therefore, there is no birth warning.

As a result, due to the above-mentioned negativities and existing solutions Due to the inadequacy of the subject, it was necessary to make an innovation in the related technical field.

Purpose of the Invention The invention is a new opening in this field, different from the structures used in the current technique. It aims to reveal a structure with different technical features that bring

The primary purpose of the invention is; from the moment of birth of pregnant mammals, correctly and healthy in a way to ensure that you are instantly informed.

It is an object of the invention that producers spend by constantly checking their pregnant animals. is to avoid time and energy.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide intervention in preterm births. your calves, In premature births, the chances of survival are very low compared to normal births. together with the invention calves born prematurely are taken into special care and the chance of survival is increased.

Another aim of the invention is to provide difficult births (the size of the puppies, the birth canal of the animal). narrow, the pregnant animal is young, the pup is inverted, the position of the puppies disorders, etc.) to provide the opportunity to intervene in birth. For example, in normal births, the first two The birth is not intervened within the hour and the birth is expected to take place. two hours If the cow is still unable to remove the calf, the calf is removed by intervention. In power births, invention Thanks to this, intervention is done without waiting.

Another object of the invention is to provide the first time of calf's life with the notification of the moment of birth. is to ensure that maintenance is done during the hours. Calf rises within two hours of birth should get up and drink (absorb) colostrum called mouth milk. Often this it doesn't happen and it's too late. The factors that cause this situation; calf is weak, the mother does not want the baby, the mother is sick, etc. With the invention announcing the moment of birth Along with this, the calf's airways are cleaned and it is ensured to breathe easily. calf cleaned dried and provided to maintain body temperature. The umbilical cord is cleaned and disinfected.

Vaccinations are made, they are protected against infectious diseases. powerless, without resistance calves are given vitamin and mineral supplementation. Thus, with all these applications, the calf's life chance is increased.

Another purpose of the invention is to protect the health of the pregnant mother. In power births, Immediate intervention is provided in cases such as birth paralysis and rejection of the offspring. of the calf During delivery, the damage done by the mother to the birth canal can sometimes be serious. (such as cervix ruptures). In such cases, early treatment and operations to the mother With this, maternal health is significantly protected.

Another object of the invention is to provide commercial benefits. Occurrence of a breeding cow It is not easy, the pregnancy period is 280 days and the fertility rate is %. The probability of the calf being female is 50%. Pregnancy of a cow that became pregnant during insemination The offspring must be in good health throughout the period. If a birth-related death (calf or mother) means that all this effort is wasted. Loss of a female calf only It should not be seen as a loss of 1 calf. When we think over the 5-year herd, the losses are We can see how many there are. Under normal conditions, 4 calves from 1 female calf in a 5-year period obtained. Therefore, if we add these 4 calves to our calf loss, we will contribute to the livestock industry. We can see the damage it does. Therefore, the invention adds value to the livestock industry and national wealth. It is a creator invention. Most births occur during quiet hours of the day, which is instinctive. is an event. Accordingly, night births are more common. Many manufacturers of camera systems waiting for pregnant animals to give birth by watching. With Bulus, this event is completely is eliminated.

The partumer system, which is the subject of the invention, is mechanically installed in the dairy farm or the breeder barn. and software installation is done. Afterwards, the related animals are under veterinary control. partumer is attached. First of all, 15 minutes before applying the accessible surface of the vagina and cervix It is desensitized as much as possible with local anesthetic ointment beforehand. (Injection in pregnant animal Injectable anesthetics should not be used.) Then, the follower made for the partumer itself (or with surgical sutures). For this, the area is opened from the lips of the vulva with a speculum and visualized. is made visible. (Opening with a speculum is not a surgical intervention, opening the lips manually It takes over the process.) Afterwards, the Sensing and Transmitting part are together and it takes its original name. The partumer apparatus (Emitter chip) is attached here with a threader or by simple sewing. From now on With the onset of the birth, the system activates and transmits the birth news to the relevant persons. partumer pregnant The cigarette is worn 15-20 days before the estimated birthday.
