Animal tail temperature measurement apparatus and method for measuring animal body temperature

Abstract

The invention discloses an animal tail temperature measurement apparatus and a method for measuring animal body temperature, wherein the animal tail temperature measurement apparatus comprises a temperature measurement module and a fixing strap; a temperature measurement probe is arranged on the temperature measurement module; the temperature measurement module is fixedly arranged on the fixing strap; fixedly connecting devices which are mutually matched are arranged at two ends of the fixing strap; under a to-be-measured status, the fixedly connecting devices at two ends of the fixing strap are mutually separated; and under a temperature measuring status, the fixing strap winds around the animal tail, and the fixedly connecting devices at two ends of the fixing strap are mutually connected, so that the temperature measurement probe is propped against the animal tail. According to the technical scheme disclosed by the invention, on the basis of a vascular circulating network in the animal tail and by propping the temperature measurement probe against artery blood vessel of the tail, a temperature sensor can be rapidly heated through heat energy from a great amount of blood in the artery blood vessel; and meanwhile, body temperature data of the animal can be measured more accurately since the blood temperature of the artery blood vessel is closer to the temperature of core region inside the animal.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an animal tail temperature measuring device and a method for measuring animal body temperature, belonging to the technical field of animal husbandry livestock monitoring equipment. Background technique [0002] Modern high-efficiency breeding is a breeding method based on livestock nutrition, development, disease prevention and health management. Wildlife research and animal experiments also need to monitor animal body temperature, and its implementation often relies on the prevention and infection of animal diseases. Disease surveillance and control. Body temperature is an important indicator of biological vital signs, especially the combination of wireless sensor technology and computer technology to achieve continuous body temperature monitoring. It is used to prevent and control animal diseases and to understand the occurrence of animal growth and health conditions. Important data. However, the common body temperature meas...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, there is a large temperature difference between the animal's body surface temperature and the animal's real body temperature

Moreover, the thermal resistance between the core area of ​​the animal's body and the animal's body surface is large, resulting in a time lag in the temperature fluctuation signal

Moreover, the heat transfer path between the core area of ​​the body and the animal's body surface will also bring certain noise signals, making it impossible to monitor the subtle changes in body temperature with temperature on the body surface
