technical field

The invention relates to automatic livestock breeding technology, in particular to auxiliary equipment in the pig breeding process.

Background technique

In the breeding and production process of large-scale pig farms in the prior art, it is necessary to monitor the estrus status of sows for several consecutive days before mating, press and pat the waist and back by mechanical means to simulate boar climbing, and check the stability of back pressure reflex of sows. Judge the estrous process of sows, and determine the time of artificial insemination based on this. During the process of artificial insemination, continuous stimulation of the lower back is also required to promote uterine contraction and semen absorption, and improve breeding efficiency.

However, this process is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the simulation effect of existing equipment is poor, and the estrus monitoring of sows is not accurate. Especially after large-scale and batch production became the mainstream breeding mode, sow estrus and mating became more concentrated, and the intensity of short-time work increased, requiring more labor to invest in estrus identification and mating, resulting in unstable mating results.

The breeding belt in the prior art does not have a double-layer structure, especially does not have an inner airbag structure, so it mainly relies on the clamping force of the belt to simulate the straddle force of livestock, but due to individual differences in the size of sows, resulting in The clamping force cannot be dynamically adjusted as the individual changes. For larger sows, it is easy to be too tight, resulting in pinch injury or difficulty in applying it in place, while for smaller sows, it is easy to cause the belt to fall off. In addition, the clamping force exerted by the hard belt may also cause bruising of the sow. In the present invention, a double-layer structure is adopted, the outer layer is a semi-circular hard plastic strip structure with elastic force, and the inner ring is a strip-shaped air bag, because the inner air bag is self-adaptive to the sow when inflated.
