Easy to clean rat cage

Abstract

A rat breeding cage convenient to clean comprises a base and a breeding cage body, a handle and a grid cage door are arranged at the top of the breeding cage body, the interiors of side walls are smooth, and a bottom plate is composed of a collecting groove and a flat plate arranged at one end of the collecting groove. A feces scraping plate for scraping off feces on grids is arranged above the flat plate in an inclined mode and driven by the handle to complete feces scraping, the bottom of the breeding cage body extends downwards to form supporting legs, the supporting legs can be fixedly inserted into insertion grooves formed in the base, and a groove used for containing wood scraps and water-absorption paper is formed in the upper surface of the base. People can conveniently and rapidly take and place experiment rats through the rat breeding cage convenient to clean, the rats are prevented from escaping, the function of clearing away the rat feces effectively at any time can be achieved, and the practical effect is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of animal breeding cages, in particular to a convenient and clean rat breeding cage. Background technique [0002] Because of their strong disease resistance, strong sensitivity, consistent genetics, and similar responses to experimental conditions, rats have become necessary experimental materials in life science research. The common rat cages in the laboratory are generally plastic boxes with a steel mesh cover on the top. It is difficult to clean and replace them conveniently, quickly and at any time when changing the bedding of the rat cage. If the bedding is not replaced for a long time, the rats that the foul smell produced by the accumulated animal excrement and urine will often produce depression, loss of appetite, growth retardation, and bad phenomena such as fried hair. Simultaneously, this breeding cage also often produces phenomena such as animals escape or bite experimenters during the capture ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The common rat cages in the laboratory are generally plastic boxes with a wire mesh cover on the top. It is difficult to clean and replace them conveniently, quickly and at any time when changing the bedding of the rat cage.

If the bedding is not replaced for a long time, the foul smell produced by the accumulated animal excrement and urine will smoke the rats, which often have adverse phenomena such as depression, loss of appetite, growth retardation, and fried hair.

At the same time, such breeding cages often cause animals to escape or bite experimenters during the capture process due to poor closure.
