Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of biological experimental equipment technology, and in particular relates to a lamp cage with a liquid cooling device. Background Technology

[0002] Laboratory rats, mice, and rabbits are widely used in teaching and research in disciplines such as basic medicine, clinical medicine, pharmacy, and nursing. These experiments often involve light and temperature control. For example, in optogenetics, heat stress studies, or drug metabolism experiments, it is required to accurately eliminate the influence of the heat source itself in order to avoid temperature fluctuations from interfering with the physiological parameters of the experimental subjects.

[0003] In laboratory animal studies involving light and temperature control (such as optogenetics or heat stress models), it is essential to accurately eliminate the influence of the heat source itself. However, existing technologies have significant limitations: the LEDs used in lighting experiments generate significant heat during prolonged operation, directly leading to an increase in cage temperature and interfering with the animals' physiological state. At the same time, relying on conventional indoor air conditioning for temperature control is not only slow to respond but also lacks precision, failing to effectively counteract local thermal interference and ultimately affecting the accuracy and reliability of experimental data. Therefore, it is necessary to design a lighting cage with a liquid cooling device. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention provides a lighting cage with a liquid cooling device, which aims to solve the problem that the heat generated by the lamp beads in traditional lighting experiments affects the physiological state of animals, leading to deviations in experimental data.

[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows: a lighting cage with a liquid cooling device includes a cage body; a set of metal lamp plates are fixedly connected to all four sides of the cage body, each set of metal lamp plates is fixedly connected to the others, and the four sets of metal lamp plates are connected in pairs; each metal lamp plate has multiple lamp beads on the side near the cage body; a herringbone-shaped recessed mesh cover is placed inside the cage body, and a handle is fixedly connected to the top of the herringbone-shaped recessed mesh cover; a liquid cooling assembly is assembled on the surface of the four sets of metal lamp plates, which is used to remove the heat generated by the metal lamp plates and lamp beads; and a support assembly is assembled at the bottom of the cage body, which is used to support and move the cage body.

[0012] Preferably, the carrier component includes:

[0013] A water receiving tray is assembled at the bottom of the cage body, and a load-bearing rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water receiving tray. The top surface of the load-bearing rod is in contact with the bottom surface of the cage body.

[0014] Preferably, the carrier component further includes:

[0015] Two handles are fixedly connected to the top surface of the water receiving tray, and the two handles are distributed in a mirror image with respect to the cage body.

[0016] Preferably, the carrier component further includes:

[0017] The base is located on the bottom surface of the water receiving tray, and each of the four corners of the base is equipped with casters.

[0018] Preferably, the top surface of the cage body is provided with a cage cover, and the size of the cage cover is the same as that of the cage body.

[0019] Compared with related technologies, the lighting cage with a liquid cooling device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. This utility model, by arranging multiple metal lamp plates around the cage body, meets the needs of all-round lighting experiments for animals inside the cage. The liquid cooling component can remove the heat generated by the lamp beads in time when the metal lamp plates are running, effectively avoiding heat source interference with the animal's physiological state and experimental results. At the same time, the bottom support component suspends the cage body, which not only enhances the heat dissipation effect, but also realizes the containment of excrement and the diffusion of volatile gases, significantly improving the practicality and experimental reliability of the device.

[0021] 2. This utility model divides the cage body into upper and lower chambers, a dining room and an activity room, by setting a herringbone-shaped recessed mesh cover inside the cage body, thereby improving the effectiveness of the device. At the same time, the herringbone-shaped recessed mesh cover has grooves, which facilitates the feeding of feed and the insertion of multiple water bottles.

It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, a lighting cage with a liquid cooling device according to the first aspect embodiment of this utility model includes a cage body 1; a set of metal lamp plates 4 are fixedly connected to all four sides of the cage body 1, and the four sets of metal lamp plates 4 are fixedly connected to each other, with each metal lamp plate 4 having multiple lamp beads 8 on the side near the cage body 1; a herringbone-shaped recessed mesh cover 5 is placed inside the cage body 1, and a handle 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the herringbone-shaped recessed mesh cover 5; a liquid cooling component 2 is assembled on the surface of the four sets of metal lamp plates 4, which is used to remove the heat generated by the metal lamp plates 4 and the lamp beads 8; and a support component 3 is assembled at the bottom of the cage body 1, which is used to support and move the cage body 1.

[0032] The technical effects achieved by the above embodiments are as follows: By arranging multiple metal lamp plates 4 around the cage body 1, the needs of all-round lighting experiments on animals inside the cage are met. The liquid cooling component 2 can remove the heat generated by the lamp beads 8 in time when the metal lamp plates 4 are running, effectively avoiding heat source interference with the animal's physiological state and experimental results. At the same time, the bottom support component 3 suspends the cage body 1, which not only enhances the heat dissipation effect, but also realizes the containment of excrement and the diffusion of volatile gases, significantly improving the practicality and experimental reliability of the device. By setting a herringbone recessed mesh cover 5 inside the cage body 1 to divide the cage body 1 into upper and lower chambers, a dining room and an activity room, the device's usage effect is improved. At the same time, the herringbone recessed mesh cover 5 has grooves, which facilitates the addition of feed and the insertion of multiple drinking bottles. Handles 6 are set on both sides to ensure that the herringbone recessed mesh cover 5 can be taken out conveniently and quickly.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a lighting cage with a liquid cooling device includes all the contents of Embodiment 1. In addition, the liquid cooling component 2 includes: a metal block 201 fixedly connected to the surface of each metal lamp plate 4, and two connectors 205 fixedly connected to the top surface of each metal block 201. Each connector 205 communicates with the interior of the corresponding metal block 201. The liquid cooling component 2 also includes: a second connecting pipe 204 and a first connecting pipe 202 fixedly connected to the top of each connector 205. The four sets of metal blocks 201 are connected in series through the second connecting pipe 204 and the first connecting pipe 202. The liquid cooling component 2 also includes: an inlet pipe 206 fixedly connected to the top of the connector 205 on one of the metal blocks 201 and an outlet pipe 207 fixedly connected to the top of the connector 205 on another metal block 201. One end of the inlet pipe 206 is connected to the output end of an external water pump.

[0035] The technical effects achieved by the above embodiments are as follows: by combining the layout of metal lamp panels 4 and lamp beads 8, the metal blocks 201 of the liquid cooling component 2 are tightly fixed on the surface of each metal lamp panel 4, and the connectors 205 are used to connect the first connecting pipe 202 and the second connecting pipe 204, so that the four sets of metal blocks 201 are connected in series to form a closed loop flow channel. Then, external coolant is introduced through the inlet pipe 206 and discharged through the outlet pipe 207, so that the heat generated by the lamp beads 8 during operation is efficiently conducted to the internal flow channel of the metal blocks 201 and carried away by the circulating liquid in real time. This effectively avoids the heat source from interfering with the physiological state of the animals inside the cage body 1, and significantly improves the temperature control accuracy and data reliability of the light experiment.

[0036] Example 3

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a lighting cage with a liquid cooling device includes all the contents of Embodiment 2. In addition, the supporting component 3 includes: a water receiving tray 303 assembled at the bottom of the cage body 1, and a load-bearing rod 304 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water receiving tray 303. The top surface of the load-bearing rod 304 contacts the bottom surface of the cage body 1. The supporting component 3 also includes: two handles 305 fixedly connected to the top surface of the water receiving tray 303. The two handles 305 are distributed in a mirror image with respect to the cage body 1. The supporting component 3 also includes: a base 301 in contact with the bottom surface of the water receiving tray 303. Universal wheels 302 are provided at the four corners of the bottom surface of the base 301.

[0038] The technical effects achieved by the above embodiments are as follows: by adding the water tray 303, load-bearing rod 304, handle 305, base 301 and casters 302 of the load-bearing component 3, the cage body 1 is suspended on the load-bearing rod 304 in the water tray 303, forming a bottom ventilation space. With the continuous heat dissipation of the liquid cooling component 2, the bidirectional dissipation of heat from the LED beads 8 is enhanced, and the water tray 303 is used to collect excrement and diffuse volatile gases. The handles 305 distributed on both sides and the casters 302 at the four corners of the base 301 work together to keep the experimenters stable when moving the whole device. In the end, while ensuring the accuracy of temperature control, the convenience of equipment operation and environmental adaptability are significantly improved.
