- Figure 12 is a bottom isometric view of the device of Figure 9 after potting.
- a device generally designated 2.
- the device is integrally formed from plastic in this instance.
- the device comprises a body 4, of which the top face is shown in Figure 1.
- the structure of the device is mirrored in longitudinal and transverse axes passing through a central point of the body 4. Opposing features mirrored along the longitudinal axis are indicated by an apostrophe (') following the designated integer.
- the underside of the body 4 has a pair of flanges 6, 6' defining a groove 7 therebetween.
- the flanges 6, 6' are adapted to receive and hold a combined sensor/transponder 8 across the groove 7.
- Threadable means are integrally formed on each side of the body 4 and comprise:
- a pair of first outer apertures 18, 18', a pair of second outer apertures 20, 20', and a pair of inner apertures 22, 22' is present in the threadable means.
- Each one of the first outer apertures 18, 18' is located between the ipsilateral first outer arm 12 or 12' and the ipsilateral inner arm 16 or 16'.
- Each one of the second outer apertures 20, 20' is located between the ipsilateral second outer arm 12 or 12' and the ipsilateral inner arm 16 or 16'.
- Each one of the inner apertures 20, 20' is located between the ipsilateral inner arm 16 or 16' and the body 4.
- a ridge 24, 24' is formed on the outer aspect of the inner arms 16, 16'.
- a narrow gap separates each ridge 24, 24' from knobs formed at the free ends of the ipsilateral outer arms 12, 14 or 12', 14'. The narrow gaps open out into the outer apertures 18, 18', 20, 20'.
- Figure 2 shows the sensor/transponder 8 separate from the device 2 prior to installation.
- Arrows 10 indicate the direction in which the sensor/transponder 8 may be slid between the flanges 6 for installation.
- FIG. 3 shows the device 2 following installation of the sensor/transponder, wherein the sensor/transponder 8 now forms part of the rear face of the body 4.
- shoelaces 26, 28 are shown threaded through the device 2.
- Shoelace 26 is threaded over outer arm 12, down through outer aperture 18, under the body 4 and sensor/transponder 8, up through outer aperture 18' and over outer arm 12'.
- Threading of shoelace 26 occurs by slidably forcing the shoelace through the narrow gap between ridge 24 and the knob at the end of first outer arm 12.
- the outer arm flexes to accommodate the width of the shoelace.
- the outer arm 12 returns to its resting position and the gap returns to its usual narrow shape, thereby preventing the shoelace 26 from easily sliding back out through the gap.
- shoelace 26 is forced through the narrow gap between ridge 24' and the knob at the end of outer arm 12' causing the outer arm to flex in accommodating the width of the shoelace.
- the outer arm 12' returns to its resting position and gap returns to its usual narrow shape, thereby preventing the shoelace 26 from easily sliding back through the gap.
- Shoelace 28 is threaded over arm 14, down through outer aperture 20, under the body 4 and sensor/transponder 8, up through outer aperture 20' and over outer arm 14'.
- threading of shoelace 28 occurs by slidably forcing the shoelace 28 through the narrow gap between ridge 24 and the knob at the end of second outer arm 14. Then at another point along its length the shoelace 28 is forced through the narrow gap between ridge 24' and the knob at the end of second outer arm 14'.
- Figure 8 shows how a device 2 is attached to a user's shoe 29 by threading shoelaces 26 and 28 through the device 2.
- the threading of two shoelaces in this manner keeps the sensor/transponder 8 fairly flat along the tongue of the shoe 29 and limits migration of the device toward the heel or toe of the shoe 29 which may reduce the chance of either of the shoelaces 26, 28 unthreading by sliding out of the outer apertures through one of the narrow gaps.
- an elasticised band 30 is shown threaded through the device 2.
- the band 30 is threaded under outer arms 12, 14 and inner arm 16, up through inner aperture 22, back over inner arms 16, down through outer apertures 18, 20, and back under outer arms 12, 14.
- the first step in threading the band 30 involves passing it up through inner aperture 22. Following this, one side of the band is slidably forced through the narrow gap between ridge 24 and the knob at the end of the first outer arm 12. As the band 30 is forced through the gap in a direction parallel with the outer arm 12, the outer arm flexes to accommodate the band 30. One side of the band 30 then remains positioned within both outer aperture 18 and the gap, with the portion of the band 30 located within the gap being compressed between the knob of first outer arm 12 and the ridge
- the band 30 is:
- Figure 8 shows how a device 2 is attached to a human user's leg 32 by threading the elasticised band 30 through the device 2.
- the band is threaded on one side of the device 2, wrapped around the user's leg 32, and then threaded through the other side of the device 2. Compression of the band between ridges 24, 24' and the knobs of the outer arms 12, 12', 14, 14' limits loosening of the band when placed around the ankle.
- an alternative device 2 comprising a dual frequency transponder 34 with a sensor, and a housing 36 for the transponder 34.
- the dual frequency transponder 36 comprises a ferrite rod 38, a low frequency coil 40 wrapped around the ferrite rod 38, a high frequency air coil 42 surrounding the ferrite rod 38, and a microprocessor 44 connected between the high and low frequency coils, 42 and 40 respectively.
- the transponder 36 receives at a low frequency of 125 kHz and transmits at a high frequency of 6.8MHz.
- the housing 36 of the alternative embodiment is similar to that of the device shown in Figures 1 to 8. However, whereas the housing of the device of Figures 1 to 8 defines a groove 7 for a sensor/transponder 8, the housing 36 of the alternative embodiment defines a recess 46 for a dual frequency transponder 34.
- the recess 46 has a central region 48 which is defined in the body 4 of the housing 36 between the inner apertures 22 & 22', and a surrounding region 50 which communicates with and surrounds the central region, the surrounding region extending along the inner arms 16, 16' on each side of the housing 36 between the inner 22, 22' and outer 18, 18', 20, 20' apertures.
- the central region is adapted to receive the rod 38, low frequency coil 40 and microprocessor 44, and the surrounding region 50 is adapted to receive the high frequency coil 42.
- the dual frequency transponder 34 is inserted into the recess 46 of the housing 36 during assembly of the device 2.
- a nozzle is used to flow into the recess 46 an epoxy resin or polyurethane 52 (see Figure 12) or glue thereby holding and sealing the transponder 34 within the recess 46 of the housing 36.
- the epoxy resin or polyurethane can provide a water tight seal to stop moist air from corroding the transponder 34.
- a cap (not shown) may be used to close off the recess either in addition to or instead of the epoxy resin or polyurethane.
- the cap may be ultrasonically welded to the housing 36 and provide a water tight seal.
- the device may be mounted on to a person or animal.
- the device is strapped on to the rear leg of a dairy cow. Strapping occurs in a similar fashion to that of the device 2 shown in Figure 8 which is strapped around the user's leg 32.
- the device can be activated to identify a cow and/or to sense features from the cow.
- the device may sense characteristic features such as the cow's heart rate blood pressure, or leg girth. It may also be used to sense positional features such as the cow's location, the cow's position in relation to other cows, and the cow's movements.
- the sensed features are stored as information in the microprocessor.
- information regarding the features of the cow may be loaded into the transponder's microprocessor from an external device. Downloaded information may include identifying and characteristic features such as the cow's name, number, weight, height, breed, infections, diseases and health status.
- the information stored in the microprocessor is transmitted from the device.
- a receiver such as a moving antenna or hand held wand is used to receive the information transmitted by the device.
- the receiver identifies and registers each cow's features which enables identification of the order in which the cows are standing in the milking shed. Determining the line up order enables identification of the milk coming from each cow.
