Design And Construction Of Alternating And Direct Current Operated Electroejaculator For Animal Breeders

Abstract

The supply of voltage is obtained by using a transistorised converter. It is designed to give a square wave output of 200v at up to 80mA from an input of 12 volt d.c car battery. The output of the 12v push-pull square-wave oscillator is transformer-coupled to step up 30 volts square wave by a specially wound transformer. The transformed voltage is then used as output to energize the probe that will go into the rectum of an animal in order to stimulate it for the ejaculation of the semen. The semen collected is analysed and used to inseminate female animals.
