TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of pharmacological experiment equipment, in particular to a placing device beneficial to analyzing mouse vital signs. BACKGROUND
[0002] Mice are essential materials for life science research. In the process of drug experiments, mice are first taken as experimental objects. In the process of experiments, in order to observe the vital signs of mice within a period of time before and after injection of drugs, the mice need to be placed in a mouse placing device.
[0003] A novel experimental mouse cage is disclosed in Chinese Patent No. CN209089645U. The main structure of the cage includes a plastic bottom groove, a metal mesh cover used in cooperation with the plastic bottom groove, a metal bottom groove with the same shape as the plastic bottom groove is arranged in the plastic bottom groove, and the size of the metal bottom groove is smaller than that of the plastic bottom groove. An activity partition plate is arranged in the metal bottom groove, and the activity partition plate is detachably connected with the metal bottom groove. A partition plate clamping groove is arranged on both sides of the metal bottom groove and used in cooperation with the activity partition plate. The activity partition plate is detachably connected to the metal bottom groove through the partition plate clamping groove. The metal mesh cover is arranged on the upper opening of the metal bottom groove, and the size of the metal mesh cover is smaller than that of the upper opening of the plastic bottom groove. When working, the metal mesh cover is opened, the metal bottom groove is held with both hands, and the metal bottom groove is shaken left and right or up and down to make the bedding and feces fall into the plastic bottom groove that has been contaminated, while the mouse is still in the metal bottom groove. At this time, the metal bottom groove is inclined at about 45 degrees, the opening end of the metal bottom groove with the slope faces upwards, and the mouse slides to the lower side. The activity partition plate is installed in the partition plate clamping groove, and the activity range of the mouse is limited to the 1 / 3 area of the rear side of the metal bottom groove. At this time, the metal bottom groove with the mouse is installed into the cleaned plastic bottom groove, new bedding is poured into the area separated by the activity partition plate and evenly spread. The activity partition plate is removed, the mouse is driven to the area with the changed bedding, the whole mouse cage is lifted and slightly shaken to make the bedding uniform, and the metal mesh cover is installed to complete the process of changing the bedding of the mouse.
[0004] From the above description, it can be known that the novel experimental mouse cage has a limited activity space for the mouse inside when working, and the liveliness of the mouse within a period of time before and after injection of drugs cannot be observed. The most obvious performance of the liveliness is the sustainable movement time of the mouse. Since the activity space is in a fixed form and the space is limited, and the mouse is often in a stationary state, it is difficult to observe the liveliness of the mouse.
[0005] The placing device for facilitating mouse movement also comprises a drum-type mouse placing cage, since the mouse is stored in the drum-type space structure, when the drum body rotates, the mouse is in a state of movement due to the change of the space under the feet, so as to facilitate observation, but due to the gravity of the drum body and the mouse itself, there is a rolling friction resistance between the rotating connecting parts between the drum body and the support body, the greater the friction, the greater the driving strength required when the mouse movement makes the drum body rotate, and the activity precision of the mouse due to the resistance is limited, therefore, in order to reduce the resistance, the drum body is often designed to be small in size and light in weight, and the structure often leads to small activity space of the mouse, which also affects the activity degree of the mouse. SUMMARY
