Abstract:
1. An animal training collar having a pair of collapsible electrodes and an electronic whistle, comprising a transmitter and a receiver; wherein the transmitter comprises: an electrode collapse switch for generating a signal used to collapse or erect the pair of electrodes of a receiver; an electronic whistle switch for generating a signal used to cause an electronic whistle to be blown; a transmission control unit for receiving a signal from the electrode collapse switch and then transmitting the corresponding signal, and receiving a signal from the electronic whistle switch and then performing control on an electronic whistle unit such that a whistle is blown; a wireless transmission unit for transmitting a wireless signal which corresponds to the signal from the electrode collapse switch in response to a control signal of the transmission control unit; and the electronic whistle unit for enabling a whistle to be blown under control of the transmission control unit; and wherein the receiver comprises: a wireless reception unit configured to receive a signal from the transmitter; a reception control unit configured to receive a command, instructing the electrodes to be collapsed or erected, from the wireless reception unit, and then to perform control such that the electrodes are collapsed or erected; a high voltage generation unit configured to generate high voltage under control of the reception control unit; an electrode driving unit configured to collapse or erect the electrodes under control of the reception control unit; and the pair of left and right electrodes configured to be collapsed or erected by receiving power from the electrode driving unit, and to receive high voltage electricity generated by the high voltage generation unit.
