[0127] This embodiment provides a method for automatically taking / putting the IVC in the animal room, which is realized by the system for automatically taking / putting the IVC in the animal room of the first embodiment. Figure 11 Shown is the flow chart of the IVC automatic pick-up / place method of this embodiment. Among them, the moving direction of the robot in the horizontal direction is the x-axis, and the direction perpendicular to the ground (up and down) is the y-axis; the intersection of the x-axis and the y-axis is the origin, and the direction perpendicular to the cage in a horizontal plane is the z-axis. Such as Figure 11 As shown, the method for automatically taking / putting the IVC in the animal room described in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0128] Step S1, the task controller analyzes which cage to operate on according to the pre-configured work content, and sends the specific positioning information and work content to the robot;

Abstract

The invention provides an animal room IVC automatic taking / placing system and method. The system achieves the IVC taking / placing functions through an automatic taking / placing robot. The robot moves under navigation of a navigation magnetic track, completes positioning of cages and completes taking / placing of the cages through a manipulator. The animal room IVC automatic taking / placing system achieves IVC automatic taking / placing and carrying through combination of a real-time operation system uC / OS and the robot. The animal room IVC automatic taking / placing system has the advantages of automation, intelligence and high accuracy, can be used for replacing an existing manual cage taking / placing and carrying method and prevent cross contamination of animals and the environment and hazards tothe health of the animals and working staff, the labor force is greatly saved, and the working efficiency is improved. The animal room IVC automatic taking / placing system records and distinguish serial numbers in the program through rfid tags at the bottoms of the cages, the management workload of animal rooms is reduced. The animal room IVC automatic taking / placing system provides better preparations for processing and treatment of a rear-end automatic assembly line and achieves accurate high-efficiency management on the experimental animal rooms.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of experimental animal management equipment, and in particular relates to an automatic picking / putting system and method for individual ventilated cages (Individual Ventilated Cages, IVC) in animal rooms. Background technique [0002] At present, the experimental animal industry widely uses individual ventilated cages (Individual Ventilated Cages, IVC) to raise and centrally manage experimental animals. IVC refers to a closed and independent cage box, in which the clean air flow with high ventilation frequency (20-60 times / h) circulates independently, the exhaust gas is concentrated and discharged, and it can be operated and tested in an ultra-clean workbench or a biological safety cabinet Miniature SPF grade experimental animal breeding and experimental equipment. During the feeding period, it is necessary to take out the cage box regularly to add feed, replace the litter and replace the cage box, and then...
