Abstract: The device (1) for collection of animal semen comprises a rigid (2) which is adaptable to an artificial vagina (V), and to which filtration means (3) and a collection receptacle (4) are fixed, the filtration means (3) being positioned inside the collection receptacle (4). The filtration means form a filtration pouch, preferably conical, that make it possible to hold back the “tapioca” and to allow the liquid fractions of the semen, including the “rich fraction” containing the spermatozoa, to pass into the collection receptacle (4).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a probe for artificially inseminating an animal, including: a cylindrical body to be inserted inside the vagina of the animal and ending in a distal element provided with a discharge opening; and a storage space for semen to be injected. The cylindrical body consists of a hollow tube, and the storage space comprises a flexible tube that is molded onto the proximal end of the cylindrical body on one side and onto a plug on the other side, said plug allowing the storage space to be filled under pressure. In the inoperative position, after being filled, the semen is located mainly in the expanded flexible tube while an overpressure prevails inside the cylindrical body. In the operative position, when the flexible tube is outside the vagina of the animal, the semen is moved into the entire cylindrical body through the discharge opening under the effect of suction and of the contraction of the flexible tube returning to the original volume thereof.

Abstract: The phantom (1) for animals, in particular porcine animals, comprises a frame (2) to which the animal semen collection means (4) are attached. These collection means (4) are mobile between at least one animal semen collection position and a retracted position. The phantom (1) comprises means (7) for detecting the presence of an animal in position on the frame (2), and actuation means (6), which are designed to move the collection means between the collection position and the retracted position, and which are controlled by the detection means (7).
