Embodiment approach 1

[0025] Figure 1A , Figure 1B It is an external view showing the estrus detection device according to the first embodiment. In the figure, the estrus detection device 1 has a belt 20 on the lower side of the housing 2 . like figure 2 As shown, the housing 2 is mounted to the neck of a cow as livestock using a strap 20 . The livestock to which the estrus detection device 1 is installed may also be pigs, cows and the like.

[0026] Next, use Figure 3 to Figure 6 Next, the internal structure of the housing 2 will be described.

[0027] A display substrate 3 , a control substrate 4 , and a power supply 5 are housed in the casing 2 . A display unit 30 is provided on the display substrate 3 . A triaxial acceleration sensor 40 as an active mass sensor, a signal processing unit 41 , a temporary storage unit 42 , a storage unit 43 , and an estrus determination unit 44 are provided on the control board 4 .

[0028] The activity sensor detects the activity of livestock. Vario...

Embodiment approach 2

[0062] Figure 8 is the block diagram of the estrus detection system. In the drawings, the same parts as those in Embodiment 1 are given the same reference numerals and their descriptions are referred to.

[0063] The estrus detection system has an estrus detection device 81 , a communication device 82 , and a notification device 83 . The estrus detection device 81 of the second embodiment includes the first transmitter 60 in the estrus detection device 1 described in the first embodiment. The fact that the cow is in estrus is transmitted from the estrus determination unit 44 to the first transmission unit 60 . The first transmission unit 60 transmits to the first reception unit 61 of the communication device 82 a first estrus state signal indicating that the cow is in estrus.

[0064] The first estrous state signal received by the first receiving unit 61 is sent to the second transmitting unit 62 via the calculating unit 65 . The second transmission unit 62 transmits the ...

Abstract

Provided is an estrus detection device comprising a resinous case (2) and a belt (20) to be fitted to livestock, wherein the case (2) accommodates a triaxial acceleration sensor (40) as an activity rate sensor for detecting the movement of livestock; a signal processor (41) for converting output from the triaxial acceleration sensor (40) to an activity rate; a temporary storage unit (42) for storing output from the signal processor (41) as the current activity rate; a storage unit (43) for storing, as a past activity rate, the activity rate determined for a designated past time period and stored in the temporary memory (42); an estrus determination unit (44) for determining whether or not the livestock is in a state of estrus from the past activity rate and the current activity rate; and a display unit (30) for displaying that the livestock is in a state of estrus when the estrus determination unit (44) has determined that the livestock is in a state of estrus.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for detecting the estrus period of domestic animals, especially cattle. Background technique [0002] In order to efficiently increase calf production, it is important to detect the estrus state of cows, especially the start of estrus. As a device for detecting an estrus state, there is a device using a pedometer (refer to Patent Document 1). [0003] A pedometer was attached to the target cow. Divide the day into time periods. The detection device extracts the number of steps counted by the pedometer every time period. The detection device compares the counted number of steps with the number of steps in the same period of time in the past n days. The estrus state is detected based on the comparison result. [0004] use Figure 9 to explain in detail. The detection device for the estrus state includes a statistical device 101 and at least one pedometer 102 . The statistical device 101 includes a computer 103 and...
