Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of animal housing technology, and more specifically, to a small transfer door for animal housing that is easy to open and close. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in urban zoos, to maintain cleanliness and hygiene within the animal enclosures and prevent bacterial growth that could affect the animals' health, zookeepers need to regularly clean the enclosures. Considering the animals' wild nature and the possibility of them attacking zookeepers, to ensure the safety of zookeepers, the animals need to be moved to adjacent cages before they can enter the enclosures for cleaning. A small transfer door is installed between the two cages, and this door is usually opened manually using a steel cable to allow the animals to pass through.
[0003] However, in the existing technology, when it is necessary to transfer animals, two or more staff members work together to pull the steel cable to lift the transfer door, allowing the animal to pass through to another cage. After the animal has passed through, they work together to lower the door, and the keepers can then enter the cage to clean. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.
[0005] Therefore, the present invention provides a small door for transferring animal pens that is easy to open and close.
[0006] This invention provides a small, easily openable animal enclosure transfer door, comprising:
[0007] A transfer door, wherein the transfer door is rotatably connected to the animal enclosure at least at one point;
[0008] An opening and closing lever, one end of which is rotatably connected to the transfer door, and the opening and closing lever can rotate to a vertical state and a horizontal state.
[0009] This invention proposes an easily openable and closeable animal enclosure transfer door, comprising a transfer door and an opening / closing lever. The transfer door is rotatably connected to the animal enclosure's door frame at a single point, and one end of the opening / closing lever is rotatably connected to the transfer door. When the transfer door needs to be opened, the operator holds the lever and rotates it to a horizontal position, then continues to rotate it. At this point, the lever applies a force to the transfer door, causing it to rotate around its connection point with the animal enclosure, thus opening the transfer door. Therefore, this technical solution eliminates the need for the existing method of pulling the transfer door with a steel wire rope, making the opening process more convenient and faster, and avoiding the safety risks to animals caused by broken steel wire ropes, thus making animal transfer safer. Furthermore, this technical solution has a simple structure, is easy to install and disassemble, and reduces construction costs.
[0010] The easily openable and closable animal enclosure transfer door according to the above-described technical solution of the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:
[0011] In the above technical solution, the opening and closing rod includes a first opening and closing rod and a second opening and closing rod. One end of the first opening and closing rod is rotatably connected to the transfer door, and the other end of the first opening and closing rod is pin-connected to the other end of the second opening and closing rod.
[0012] In this technical solution, the opening and closing mechanism consists of a first opening and closing rod and a second opening and closing rod. The end of the first opening and closing rod is rotatably connected to the transfer door. When the first opening and closing rod rotates, it drives the second opening and closing rod to rotate synchronously. When both rotate to a horizontal position, the rotation of the first opening and closing rod is stopped. At this point, because the second opening and closing rod is rotatably connected to the first opening and closing rod, it can continue to rotate. When it rotates to a position perpendicular to the first opening and closing rod, an upward force is applied to the second opening and closing rod, thereby opening the transfer door.
[0013] In the above technical solution, the other end of the first opening and closing rod is formed with a concave tenon, and the one end of the second opening and closing rod is formed with a convex tenon. The concave tenon and the convex tenon are coupled and connected by a pin.
[0014] In this technical solution, the connection structure between the first and second opening / closing rods is defined. They are coupled together using a mortise and tenon joint and fixed by a pin to meet the rotational requirements of the second opening / closing rod. This structure facilitates both connection and disassembly, allowing for quick replacement and maintenance of the rods.
[0015] In the above technical solution, the connection point between the transfer door and the first opening / closing rod is the first rotation point, and the first opening / closing rod rotates around the first rotation point.
[0016] In this technical solution, the connection point between the transfer door and the first opening / closing rod is the first rotation point. This first rotation point allows the first opening / closing rod to rotate 0°-90° around this point, meaning the first opening / closing rod can transition from a vertical state to a horizontal state. When it is in the horizontal state, it reaches its maximum rotation position. At this time, the second opening / closing rod can continue to rotate and begin to apply force to the first opening / closing rod, causing it to drive the transfer door to open.
[0017] In the above technical solution, the pin connection point of the concave tenon and the convex tenon is the second rotation point, and the second opening and closing rod rotates around the second rotation point.
[0018] In this technical solution, the connection point between the tenon and the convex tenon is the second rotation point. When the first opening and closing rod is in a horizontal state, the second opening and closing rod can continue to rotate around the second rotation point until it rotates from a horizontal state to a vertical state, that is, reaches the limit of rotation. At this time, the operator applies force to the second opening and closing rod, causing it to drive the first opening and closing rod to open the transfer door.
[0019] In the above technical solution, the first opening / closing rod and / or the second opening / closing rod are telescopic structures.
[0020] In this technical solution, both the first and second opening rods can be telescopic structures. When the transfer door is large in size and heavy in weight, the torque can be increased by extending the first or second opening rod, thereby achieving the effect of saving effort.
[0021] In the above technical solution, the handle is located at the end of the second opening and closing rod.
[0022] In this technical solution, a handle is provided at the end of the second opening and closing rod. The operator applies force to the second opening and closing rod through the handle to avoid hand slippage and ensure the safety of the transfer door opening process.
[0023] In the above technical solution, the movable door includes a door frame and a door panel, one end of the opening and closing rod is rotatably connected to the side wall of the door frame, and the door panel is connected to the inside of the door frame.
[0024] In this technical solution, the transfer door consists of a door frame and a door panel. The door frame is rotatably connected to the animal enclosure at one of its four corners. When the transfer door is subjected to the force of the opening and closing rod, the door frame rotates around this point and eventually reaches a fully open state. A connection point to the opening and closing rod is provided at one end of the door frame to form a rotatable connection. The materials and specifications of the door frame and door panel can be selected according to actual working conditions and are not specifically limited here.
[0025] In the above technical solution, a placement groove is provided on the side wall of the door frame. When the opening and closing rod is rotated to a vertical state, the opening and closing rod is placed in the placement groove.
[0026] In this technical solution, a placement groove can be provided on the side wall of the door frame. When the opening and closing rod is rotated to the vertical loading position, the opening and closing rod can be completely hidden in the placement groove, thereby preventing damage to the opening and closing rod from external forces. In addition, the shape and size of the placement groove can be adapted according to the shape and size of the opening and closing rod.
[0027] In the above technical solution, the handle is detachably connected to the second opening / closing rod.
[0028] In this technical solution, the handle and the second opening / closing rod can be detachably connected. Specifically, they can be connected by a screw-on joint to facilitate the disassembly and installation of the handle. Furthermore, this structure is simple and easy to operate.

The end of the first opening / closing lever 201 is rotatably connected to the transfer door 1. When the first opening / closing lever 201 rotates, it drives the second opening / closing lever 202 to rotate synchronously. When both rotate to a horizontal position, the rotation of the first opening / closing lever 201 is stopped. At this point, because the second opening / closing lever 202 is rotatably connected to the first opening / closing lever 201, it can continue to rotate. When it rotates to a position perpendicular to the first opening / closing lever 201, an upward force is applied to the second opening / closing lever 202, thereby opening the transfer door 1.
