Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of clamping tools for spinal cord injury animal models, in particular to an automatic clamping tool for spinal cord injury animal models. Background Art

[0002] Spinal cord injury is one of the most difficult clinical problems. The motor and sensory functions of patients with spinal cord injury are severely damaged, and they lose the ability to take care of themselves, which places a heavy burden on their families and society. At present, there is no clear and effective treatment plan for spinal cord injury in the clinic. Therefore, there are many experiments in the laboratory using animal models to simulate spinal cord injury, most of which use rats or mice. Spinal cord clamping is a common method for laboratory spinal cord injury modeling, and it is also a key step. The inconsistent degree of clamping injury often reduces the credibility of the experimental results, or even fails. Traditionally, spinal cord clamping is performed by a single experimenter. The spinal cord of mice is small, and the use of clamping tweezers often results in inconsistent clamping force, inaccurate clamping position (mostly offset), unstable clamping time and other shortcomings. There are also large errors in the operation of different experimenters. At the same time, the clamping operation has high requirements for the experimenter. The experimenter usually needs a month of learning and training to truly meet the requirements of scientific research experiments for modeling quality.

When the clamping force reaches the preset clamping force threshold, the PLC instructs the timing unit to time. When the time data recorded by the timing unit reaches the clamping time threshold, the PLC instructs the clamp driver 3 to stop the clamping action and reverse operation; the crossbeam mounting seat assembly 8 includes a mounting seat 801 and a lifting cylinder 802; the mounting seat 801 is arranged on the operating table 6, and the lifting cylinder 802 is installed on the mounting seat 801. The piston rod end of the cylinder 802 is connected to the end of the crossbeam 1 and away from the slide groove 5. A fixing plate 803 is arranged on one side of the mounting seat 801. The fixing plate 803 is movably connected to the operating table 6 through the locking bolt 9 and the mounting seat 801 rotates around the locking bolt 9. A pressure ring 901 is arranged on the locking bolt 9. The lifting cylinder 802 is electrically connected to the touch control module 7. The mounting seat 801 is installed on the operating table 6 through the locking bolt 9. The top of the locking bolt 9 is connected to the handle 13 through a connecting ring. The mouse placing table 10 is installed on the operating table 6. The mouse placing table 10 is provided with a locking bolt 9. The placement table 10 has a built-in heating unit, which is electrically connected to the touch module 7 and is used to heat the mouse placement table 10; the mouse placement table 10 includes a first placement table 101 and a second placement table 102, the first placement table 101 and the second placement table 102 are connected via a connecting plate, a wiring port is provided on one side of the first placement table 101, and the wiring port is connected to the touch module 7 via a cable, a placement slot 11 is provided on the operating table 6, the first placement table 101 and the second placement table 102 are movably arranged in the placement slot 11, and a plurality of cleaning holes 12 are provided in the placement slot 11.

[0035] Usage and principle: When in use, place the first placement table 101 and the second placement table 102 in the placement slot 11 of the operating table 6, then connect the cables to the wiring port of the first placement table 101 and the touch module 7 respectively to achieve temperature control of the first placement table 101 and the second placement table 102, loosen the locking bolt 9, rotate the mounting seat 801, so that the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202 at the end of the beam 1 leave the first placement table 101 or the second placement table 102, set the parameters, mainly set the preset clamp pressure The value is matched through the pressure sensor 4. When the pressure reaches the preset value, the reduction motor 301 stops working. The preset value of the clamping time is completed by the timing unit in the touch module 7. The timing starts from the stop of the reduction motor 301. After the time is reached, the reduction motor 301 starts and reverses. The left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202 are loosened to the outside. The preset value of the clamping speed is controlled by the control chip corresponding to the reduction motor 301 to control the speed of the reduction motor 301, so that the same batch of mice can be guaranteed to have consistent damage. If there are multiple mice, when one mouse is operated, another mouse can be placed on another placement table for preparation. The operation process is as follows: the mouse is anesthetized first and placed on the first placement table 101 or the second placement table 102. First, the height of the crossbeam 1 is controlled by the lifting cylinder 802, so that the left clamp head 204 and the right clamp head 205 are respectively located above the mouse. Then, the distance between the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202 is controlled by the reduction motor 301, so that the left clamp head 204 and the right clamp head 205 are respectively located on both sides of the mouse spinal cord and in the gap between the bones on both sides. Then, the crossbeam 1 is lowered by the lifting cylinder 802 until the left clamp head 204 and the right clamp head 205 are respectively inserted into the gaps between the bones on both sides of the mouse spinal cord. Then, the reduction motor 301 is used to control the distance between the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202. 1 The left clamp head 204 and the right clamp head 205 clamp the spinal cord of the mouse. At this time, the pressure sensor 4 embedded and attached on the clamping surface of the left clamp head 204 or the right clamp head 205 applies pressure until the preset value is reached, and the reduction motor 301 stops working. At this time, the timing starts. When the preset value is reached, the motor reverses, so that the left clamp head 204 and the right clamp head 205 release the spinal cord of the mouse, and the crossbeam 1 rises to push the first placement table 101 and the second placement table 102. The above operation steps are performed on another mouse, and the mouse after the experiment is taken out and the experimental results are recorded and analyzed. At the same time, a new mouse to be tested is placed on the standby placement table, and this is repeated.The crossbeam 1 can be lifted and lowered along the mounting base 801 under the action of the lifting cylinder 802, so as to control the relative height of the left clamp head 204, the right clamp head 205 and the mouse spinal cord; the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202 are driven by the reduction motor 301 to perform a clamping action, which is used to clamp the mouse spinal cord bone. Different from the traditional clamp tweezers, the upper end of the traditional clamp tweezers is fixedly connected, and the left clamp head 204 and the right clamp head 205 at the lower end of the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202 rotate around the upper end during the clamping process. In this design, the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202 perform a centered translational action; the control of the clamping pressure and time is actually determined by the control system of the power tool, that is, a pressure sensor 4 is embedded and attached to the clamping surface of the left clamp head 204 or the right clamp head 205, and the PLC sets the upper pressure threshold, and the PLC obtains the data of the pressure sensor 4 At the same time, the timing unit is instructed to start timing. After the timing ends, the reduction motor 301 is instructed to run in the reverse direction, and the clamping is completed. Before the operation, the anesthetized mouse should be placed on the mouse placement table. At this time, the space between the left clamp arm 201, the right clamp arm 202 and the mouse placement table is very small, which is not conducive to operation. For this reason, a locking bolt 9 is designed. After loosening the locking bolt 9, the beam 1 can rotate around the connecting axis of the locking bolt 9 through the fixing plate 803, and the tool is rotated away from the mouse placement table. After the mouse is placed, the tool is rotated back. After it is in place, the locking bolt 9 is tightened to fix the tool and the operating table 6. Then the lifting cylinder 802 is controlled to lift and lower through the display screen until the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202 are adjusted to the appropriate position relative to the spinal cord bone, and the maximum clamping pressure and the clamping time are adjusted. Press the start key and the tool starts working.The structure of the present invention is reasonable. Through the cooperation of the reduction motor 301, the double-headed screw 303, the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202, the left clamp head 204 and the right clamp head 205 can clamp the mouse spinal cord. By embedding the pressure sensor 4 on the clamping surface of the left clamp arm 201 or the right clamp arm 202, the clamping force can be guaranteed to be consistent each time. Then, through the cooperation of the touch module 7, the clamping time and the clamping speed can be controlled, thereby greatly improving the accuracy of the experimental results. The mouse placement table 10 adopts the first placement table 101 and the second placement table 102. In a batch laboratory, equipment work can be carried out, and the mouse to be tested is placed on the spare placement table. After the experiment of the previous mouse is completed, it can be directly The mouse placement table 10 is pushed to greatly improve the experimental efficiency; a heating unit is provided in the first placement table 101 and the second placement table 102 to ensure that the temperature of the first placement table 101 and the second placement table 102 is consistent with the body temperature of the mouse, thereby avoiding the death of the mouse due to the anesthesia effect; a double-headed screw 303 is used to control the movement of the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202, thereby ensuring the symmetrical clamping of the left clamp arm 201 and the right clamp arm 202, ensuring the accuracy during clamping and reducing the error caused by offset; the beam 1 can rotate around the locking bolt 9, and the beam 1 can be lifted and lowered by the lifting cylinder 802, thereby facilitating the clamping experiment operation; the structure is simple, easy to install and disassemble, and easy to clean.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solution of the present invention can be modified and replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
