Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pet cabinets, in particular to a cabinet for raising reptiles. Background Art

[0002] Reptiles do not have perfect insulation devices and body temperature regulation functions, and they lose energy easily. They need to obtain the necessary heat from the outside world. They are so-called "exothermic animals". Their growth and reproduction have certain requirements for temperature and humidity conditions. Reptiles are usually raised and reproduced in a box. The upper end of the box is open to take and place reptiles. A ventilation baffle is set at the opening at the upper end of the box to maintain the ventilation performance inside the box. For example, in the Chinese patent literature, there is a reptile breeding rack with the authorization announcement number CN207167469U authorized and announced on April 3, 2018. The application includes a chassis base and multiple track breeding chambers. The track breeding chamber includes a breeding frame, at least one breathable baffle and at least one breeding box. The breathable baffle is detachably connected to the breeding frame, and the breeding box is slidably connected to the breeding frame. The breathable baffle can cover the breeding box. The breeding frames of two adjacent track breeding chambers are detachably connected, and the breeding frame of the track breeding chamber located at the bottom is detachably connected to the chassis base.

[0003] The disadvantage of the existing technology is that the upper cover of the breeding box is an integrally detachable structure and cannot be adjusted in size. If the entire cover is opened, there is a risk that the reptiles will crawl out of the cabinet, which is not conducive to the construction of a growth environment for the reptiles.

[0009] In the above-mentioned cabinet for raising reptiles, a blocking mechanism for limiting the box body is provided on the frame, and the blocking mechanism includes a blocking piece, which is rotatably arranged on the frame. The blocking piece includes a blocking part, and the blocking piece rotates so that the blocking part can block the box body or leave the box body.

[0010] In the above-mentioned cabinet for raising reptiles, the box body and the guide rod are slidably connected through a sliding guide structure. The sliding guide structure includes a first guide member located at the open end of the box body and a second guide member located on the guide rod. The first guide member and the second guide member are slidably matched. The box body is mounted between two adjacent guide rods through the first guide member and the second guide member on the adjacent guide rod.

[0011] In the above-mentioned cabinet for raising reptiles, the blocking mechanism includes a limiting column arranged on the frame, a blocking piece is rotatably arranged on the limiting column, a blocking cap is provided at the outer end of the limiting column for preventing the blocking piece from falling out, and a reset spring is provided on the limiting column for elastically pushing the blocking piece.

[0012] In the above-mentioned cabinet for raising reptiles, a heating plate is provided at one end of the bottom of the box body, and a push spring for raising the bottom height of the heating plate is connected between the bottom of the heating plate and the frame, and the push spring pushes the heating plate to abut against the box body.

[0013] In the above-mentioned cabinet for raising reptiles, a plurality of layers of longitudinally spaced installation cavities are provided in the frame, and a plurality of guide rods are provided in the installation cavities. The guide rods are arranged in parallel, and the guide portion includes guide grooves arranged oppositely on adjacent guide rods. The guide grooves arranged oppositely on adjacent guide rods form a guide groove group on which a sliding adjustment plate can be mounted.

[0014] In the above-mentioned cabinet for raising reptiles, the frame includes a cross bar of a vertical guide rod, the cross bar includes a first cross bar located on the front side of the frame and a second cross bar located on the rear side of the frame, and the height of the lower end of the uppermost guide part of the guide rod is not lower than the height of the upper end surface of the first cross bar to form a mounting opening.

[0015] In the above-mentioned cabinet for raising reptiles, the sliding adjustment plate includes a plurality of stackable unit plates.

[0016] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0017] The cabinet for raising reptiles has an open end of a box body that is slidably connected to a frame by a guide rod. When the box body slides into the frame, the anti-escape net can prevent the reptiles from crawling out. The sliding adjustment plate is arranged on the guide rod through a guide portion, which can slidably guide the sliding adjustment plate, so that the sliding adjustment plate can be slid and adjusted at the open end of the box body to adjust the area of ​​the opening that blocks the box body, thereby achieving adjustment of light transmittance, thermal insulation performance, air permeability, etc., and facilitating the creation of an environment suitable for the growth or reproduction of reptiles. In addition, the sliding adjustment plate of the present application can be directly withdrawn from the installation opening, so that the sliding adjustment plate can be completely removed from the upper end of the box body, with a blocking range from no sliding adjustment plate to the sliding adjustment plate completely covering the open end of the box body. The sliding adjustment plate has high adjustment efficiency, good reliability, and is easy to install.

[0018] Furthermore, the sliding adjustment plate includes at least one of a dimming plate, a heat-insulating plate, and a moisturizing plate. The dimming plate can adjust the amount of light transmitted through the upper opening of the box body, and a light-shielding plate can be used to adjust the light intensity within the box body. The heat-insulating plate is used to keep the box body warm, and the temperature is adjusted by blocking the opening of the box body with the heat-insulating plate. The heat-insulating plate is made of a heat-insulating material. The moisturizing plate is used to adjust the humidity within the box body and can adopt a perforated plate structure. The dimming plate, the temperature-adjusting plate, and the moisturizing plate can be used individually or in combination. After the escape-proof net completely blocks the opening of the box body, the position of the dimming plate can be adjusted arbitrarily to obtain the light intensity and temperature and humidity environment most suitable for the reptiles at different life stages.

[0019] Furthermore, a raised layer is provided within the frame, and a light source is provided on the raised layer to illuminate the interior of the box. The provision of the raised layer facilitates the placement of the light source on the frame, facilitates adjustment of the position and height distance of the light source relative to the box, and facilitates the coordination of the light source and the box. The light source can illuminate the box, compensating for the weak natural light intensity, and cooperates with the dimming board to adjust the light intensity inside the box.

[0020] Furthermore, the frame is provided with a blocking mechanism for limiting the position of the box body. The blocking mechanism includes a blocking piece that is rotatably mounted on the frame. The blocking piece includes a blocking portion. The blocking piece rotates so that the blocking portion can block the box body or move away from the box body. The rotatable blocking piece is easy to adjust. When the blocking portion of the blocking piece blocks the box body, it prevents the box body from sliding out. When the blocking portion of the blocking piece moves away from the box body, the box body can slide out of the guide rod. This provides easy operation, high reliability, and a simple structure.

[0021] Furthermore, the box body and the guide rod are slidably connected via a sliding guide structure, which includes a first guide member located at the open end of the box body and a second guide member located on the guide rod. The first guide member and the second guide member are slidably engaged with each other, and the box body is mounted between two adjacent guide rods via the first guide member engaging with the second guide member on the adjacent guide rod. The first guide member and the second guide member not only provide sliding guidance for the box body, but also serve to mount the box body, facilitating the sliding arrangement of the box body.

[0022] Furthermore, the blocking mechanism includes a limiting post provided on the frame, a blocking piece rotatably provided on the limiting post, a blocking cap provided at the outer end of the limiting post to prevent the blocking piece from falling out, and a return spring provided on the limiting post to elastically push the blocking piece. The blocking piece is rotatably provided by the limiting post, the blocking cap prevents the blocking piece from falling out, ensuring the reliability of the blocking piece's setting, and the return spring elastically compresses the blocking piece to ensure the blocking piece is reliably in place after rotation, preventing the blocking piece from rotating on its own under the action of gravity, thereby improving the reliability of the blocking piece's blocking function.

[0023] Furthermore, a heating plate is provided at one end of the bottom of the box body. A push spring is connected between the bottom of the heating plate and the frame to raise the bottom height of the heating plate. The push spring pushes the heating plate to abut the box body. The heating plate only heats one end of the box body, which can form a temperature gradient. Reptiles can regulate their body temperature to a certain extent through their own behavior. For example, moving to a sunny place to bask in the sun for warmth can increase their body temperature; hiding under the shade of a tree or in a cave can reduce their body temperature. The setting of hot and cold zones allows the temperature inside the box body to be maintained within a certain range. By setting the hot and cold zones, reptiles can find a comfortable temperature within the box body, which is more conducive to the growth or reproduction of reptiles. The heating plate heats the box body at the bottom of the box body, utilizing the principle of rising hot air to ensure the heating effect of the heating plate on the box body. The push spring elastically pushes the heating plate upward, so that the heating plate can reliably correspond to the box body. The heating plate can also provide a certain upward support to the box body, improving the reliability of the box body setting.

[0024] Furthermore, the frame is provided with a plurality of longitudinally spaced mounting cavities, each of which is provided with a plurality of parallel guide rods. The guide rods are arranged in parallel, and the guide portion includes guide grooves disposed oppositely on adjacent guide rods. The guide grooves disposed oppositely on adjacent guide rods form a guide groove group capable of mounting the sliding adjustment plate. The guide groove group formed by the guide rods can guide and mount the sliding adjustment plate, thereby achieving reliable sliding installation of the sliding adjustment plate.

[0025] Furthermore, the frame includes crossbars perpendicular to the guide rods, the crossbars including a first crossbar located at the front side of the frame and a second crossbar located at the rear side of the frame. The lower end height of the guide portion at the upper end of the guide rod is no less than the height of the upper end surface of the first crossbar to form the mounting opening. The frame is divided into a front side and a rear side at both ends of the guide rod, and the box body is pulled out and extended at the front side. The height of the first crossbar at the front side of the box body is lower than the guide portion at the upper end of the guide rod. The guide portion can be used to set a sliding adjustment plate, so that the sliding adjustment plate can be easily moved in and out of the mounting opening to obtain the maximum adjustment range relative to the opening end of the box body.

[0026] Furthermore, the sliding adjustment plate includes a plurality of stackable unit plates. The sliding adjustment plate formed by the combination of the plurality of unit plates can adjust the shielding area of ​​the sliding adjustment plate within the frame range, thereby ensuring the function of the sliding adjustment plate.

[0027] These features and advantages of the present invention will be disclosed in detail in the following specific embodiments and drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0043] The cabinet for raising reptiles proposed in the present invention includes a box body for accommodating reptiles and a frame for holding the box body. One end of the box body is open, and the box body is slidably connected to the frame. The box body can slide from the inside of the frame to the outside of the frame. The frame includes a guide rod. The open end of the box body slides along the guide rod. The guide rod is provided with a guide part. The guide rod is provided with an anti-escape net that can block the open end of the box body. The guide part is slidably connected to a sliding adjustment plate that can block the open end of the box body. The sliding adjustment plate is located on the upper side of the anti-escape net. The front side of the frame is provided with an installation opening corresponding to the guide part for the sliding adjustment plate to enter and exit. The sliding adjustment plate slides along the guide part to adjust the blocking area of ​​the open end of the box body.

[0044] Reptiles can be placed in the box through the open end, and the reptiles grow or reproduce in the box. In order to control the comfortable growth environment in the box, a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor can be set in the box, and the temperature and humidity in the box can be controlled in conjunction with external water bodies and temperature control equipment. The temperature and humidity control in the box is a mature existing technology in the prior art, and since it does not involve the improvement content of this application, it will not be elaborated on.

[0045] After the box body slides along the guide rod to the inside of the frame, the anti-escape net and the sliding adjustment plate correspond to the open end of the box body. The anti-escape net can be a diamond mesh or iron mesh, etc., with dense pores, which can achieve a mesh-like barrier at the open end of the box body, ensuring the air permeability of the box body and preventing reptiles from escaping; the guide part can be set as one group or multiple groups on the guide rod. The sliding adjustment plate can be a transparent plate, so that the open end can be blocked by the transparent plate, and the open area of ​​the open end can be controlled, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the thermal insulation and moisture retention properties of the box body. At the same time, the transparent plate can also facilitate the introduction of light, making it convenient for the outside world to supplement light into the box body; the sliding adjustment plate can be a sunshade or a colored transparent plate. The sliding adjustment of the sliding adjustment plate can adjust the blocking area of ​​the sliding adjustment plate, thereby completing the adjustment of the brightness inside the box body to adjust to obtain a more comfortable environment for reptile breeding. The sliding adjustment plate can be an acrylic plate. In order to facilitate the subsequent supplement of light inside the box body and ensure light transmittance and thermal insulation, the sliding adjustment plate can preferably be made of a high-temperature resistant material, such as a sun panel.

[0046] The sliding adjustment plate can also be a perforated air-permeable plate with a lower air permeability than the anti-escape net. By adjusting the area blocked by the air-permeable plate at the opening of the box body, the air permeability of the box body can be adjusted. Of course, the sliding adjustment plate can also be other functional plates that can play a corresponding role by adjusting the blocking area.

[0047] The sliding guide structure in the frame is used to slide with the open end of the box body. The guide rod can be an integral part of the frame or a separate rod fixed to the frame. The sliding guide structure is used for sliding connection and sliding guidance of the box body. It can be a combination of a slide groove and a slider or a slider and a rail. The specific design of the sliding guide structure is selected based on the structure of the frame and the box body. The frame is used to accommodate and support the box body. The specific structure of the frame is not limited. The frame only needs to have a cavity that can accommodate the box body. For ease of manufacturing and convenient box body arrangement, the frame is preferably a rectangular parallelepiped.

[0048] The following is an explanation and description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. However, the following embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not exhaustive. Based on the embodiments in the implementation manner, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making any creative work are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

These terms are intended solely to facilitate the description of the present invention and simplify the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, these terms should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not intended to indicate or imply relative importance.

[0050] Reference Figures 1 to 13 One embodiment of the present invention provides a cabinet for keeping reptiles, comprising a box 10 for accommodating reptiles and a frame 1 for holding the box 10. The frame 1 has a bottom equipped with rollers 38 with brakes. The frame 1 has a rectangular parallelepiped structure and includes horizontal crossbars 2, horizontal vertical bars 3, and vertical longitudinal bars 4. The longitudinal bars 4 are arranged in a rectangular array, with each crossbar 2 and vertical bar 3 connected to an adjacent longitudinal bar 4. The box 10 is open at one end. To facilitate placement and storage of reptiles, in this embodiment, the open end of the box 10 is the upper end of the box 10. The box 10 is slidably connected to the frame 1, allowing it to slide from within to outside the frame 1. The frame 1 includes guide rods 5, along which the open end of the box 10 slides. The guide rods 5 are equipped with an escape-proof net 6 that shields the open end of the box 10. The guide rods 5 are perpendicular to the crossbars 2 and parallel to the vertical bars 3. A plurality of guide rods 5 are arranged in parallel and spaced apart. The guide rod 5 includes a guide portion, which is slidably connected to a sliding adjustment plate 7 capable of covering the open end of the box body 10. The sliding adjustment plate 7 is located above the anti-escape net 6. The front side of the frame 1 is provided with a mounting opening 203 corresponding to the guide portion for the sliding adjustment plate 7 to enter and exit. The sliding adjustment plate 7 slides along the guide portion to adjust the area of ​​the box body 10 opening. The sliding adjustment plate 7 can be a single plate with the same or larger area as the box body 10 opening. However, a single plate requires a large amount of space when sliding. To improve the integration of the cabinet, the sliding adjustment plate 7 in this embodiment preferably comprises multiple stackable unit plates 8. Different unit plates 8 belonging to the same sliding adjustment plate 7 can be unfolded to completely cover the box body 10 opening or can slide parallel to each other to form an open opening. In addition, the sliding adjustment plate 7 can slide directly out of the mounting opening 203, providing the sliding adjustment plate 7 with a maximum adjustment range relative to the box body 10 opening.

[0051] The guide rod 5 and the box body 10 are slidably matched with a sliding guide structure, and the sliding connection between the box body 10 and the guide rod 5 is achieved through the sliding guide structure. Figure 6 and Figure 7In the embodiment shown, the sliding guide structure includes a slide groove 9 located in the guide rod 5, and a flange 11 is provided on the outer periphery of the open end of the box body 10 to cooperate with the slide groove 9. The flange 11 forms a sliding fit with the slide groove 9, and the flange 11 slides along the slide groove 9. At the same time, the setting of the flange 11 can enhance the strength of the open end of the box body 10.

[0052] like Figure 4 The first guide rod 12 shown is an implementation form of the guide rod 5 in one embodiment of the present invention. The first guide rod 12 is arranged inside the frame 1. The first guide rod 12 is a bilaterally symmetrical structure. Three parallel outward-opening grooves are provided on both sides of the first guide rod 12. The groove at the bottom serves as a slide groove 9 to match the flange 11 of the box body 10. The upper two grooves serve as guide grooves to connect the anti-escape net 6 and the sliding adjustment plate 7. Specifically, the first guide rod 12 includes a top plate 13 at the top. A vertical plate 14 is provided in the middle of the top plate 13 along the length direction. The interior of the vertical plate 14 is hollowed out to save material. Two parallel and spaced horizontal plates 15 are provided on both sides of the middle of the vertical plate 14. A bottom plate 16 is provided at the lower end of the vertical plate 14. The interior of the bottom plate 16 is hollowed out. The lower end of the bottom plate 16 is in the shape of an arc, so that the cross section of the bottom plate 16 is a horizontal "D" shape. A first guide groove 17 is formed between the top plate 13 and the upper transverse plate 15, a second guide groove 18 is formed between the two transverse plates 15, and a slide groove 9 is formed between the lower transverse plate 15 and the bottom plate 16. The bottom plate 16 with a "D"-shaped structure can ensure the structural strength of the bottom plate 16, reliably support the flange 11 of the box body 10, and meet the need for material saving. The width of the upper groove wall of the first guide groove 17 in the horizontal direction is greater than the width of the lower groove wall of the first guide groove 17 in the horizontal direction, ensuring the anti-slip protection capability of the sliding adjustment plate 7. At the same time, by reducing the width of the lower groove wall of the first guide groove 17, the friction area of ​​the sliding adjustment plate 7 when sliding is reduced, thereby reducing friction. The first guide groove 17 and the second guide groove 18 are the guide parts on the guide rod 5. Figure 5 The second guide rod 19 shown is another implementation form of the guide rod 5 in one embodiment of the present invention. The second guide rod 19 also includes a first guide groove 17, a second guide groove 18 and a slide groove 9 located on one side thereof. The difference from the first guide groove 17 is that the other side of the second guide rod 19 is a square tube structure 20. The upper side of the square tube structure 20 is flush with the upper groove wall of the first guide groove 17, and the lower side of the square tube structure 20 is flush with the lower groove wall of the second guide groove 18. The second guide rod 19 with the square tube structure 20 can serve as the vertical rod 3 of the frame 1 for connecting the longitudinal rod 4, and can also be completed by the notch formed by the bottom wall of the slide groove 9 and the square tube structure 20 to complete the engagement and installation on the vertical rod 3, thereby realizing the fixation of the second guide rod 19 on the frame 1. In addition, as a splicing method, the second guide rod 19 can also serve as the vertical rods 3 on both sides of the frame and the second cross bar 202 on the rear side of the frame, and as shown Figure 12The rod corresponding to the cross-sectional structure shown serves as the first crossbar 201 on the front side of the frame. The height of the first crossbar 201 is less than the height of the second guide bar 19. During assembly, the upper end of the front crossbar 2 corresponds to the lower side of the upper end of the first guide slot 17, so that one end of the first guide slot 17 forms a mounting opening 203. The sliding adjustment plate 7 can be completely withdrawn from the mounting opening 203, and the sliding adjustment plate 7 has a higher adjustment efficiency. The side of the first crossbar 201 is provided with a groove body connected to the anti-escape net 6. The side wall of the groove body is provided with a texture. The clamping strip connected to the anti-escape net 6 is inserted into the groove body of the first crossbar and is fixed to the second guide slot 18, so it will not vibrate and the connection is stable.

[0053] In this embodiment, the sliding adjustment plate 7 includes a dimming plate for adjusting the intensity of incident light at the opening end of the box body 10. Figure 1 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the sliding adjustment plate 7 includes two stackable unit plates 8. The sliding adjustment plate 7 adopts a light shielding plate, and the two unit plates 8 are stacked in the first guide groove 17 and at least a part of the two unit plates 8 always overlap, so as to prevent the two unit plates 8 from being flat in the first guide groove 17 and losing the sliding ability. In addition, in order to improve the sliding stability of the unit plates 8, the first guide groove 17 can also be divided into multiple parallel grooves to correspond to two or even more unit plates 8 respectively. The anti-escape net 6 is set in the second guide groove 18, and the flange 11 at the upper end of the box body 10 is connected to the slide 9. When the present application is used, the frame 1 is assembled first, and the guide rod 5 and the cross bar 2 are detachably connected by bolts, which is convenient for assembly. At the same time, it is also convenient to assemble the unit plates 8 and the anti-escape net 6 between the guide rods 5. The slide 9 corresponds to the lower outside of the cross bar 2 of the frame 1 to prevent the cross bar 2 from interfering with the sliding of the box body 10 and ensure the reliability of the sliding setting of the box body 10. During the process of raising reptiles, the light intensity and ventilation area above the box body 10 can be adjusted by sliding the sliding adjustment plate 7, so that the humidity and temperature can be regulated.

[0054] As a simple alternative to the above solution, Figure 9 As shown, the lower end of the first cross bar 201 corresponds to the second guide groove 18 and the upper end of the anti-escape net 6 corresponds to the lower side of the cross bar 2, so that the anti-escape net 6 can slide out of the second guide groove 18 from the lower end of the first cross bar 201. Furthermore, the end of the anti-escape net 6 that slides into the second guide groove 18 is provided with an upward bending end 22, as shown in FIG. Figure 10As shown, the bent end 22 includes a horizontal section 21 parallel to the anti-escape net 6, and the horizontal section 21 smoothly transitions to the anti-escape net 6. The distance between the horizontal section 21 and the anti-escape net 6 corresponds to the height of the lower side wall of the second guide groove 18, and preferably the two are equal. When the anti-escape net 6 slides out of the second guide groove 18, the bent end 22 can serve as a limit for the anti-escape net 6, ensuring the reliability of the anti-escape net 6. In addition, the anti-escape net 6 can also be removed from the frame 1 and directly used in conjunction with the box body 10. The anti-escape net 6 is covered at the open end of the box body 10 to prevent reptiles in the box body 10 from running out of the box body 10. Then, the overall structure consisting of the box body 10 and the anti-escape net 6 is installed together in the frame 1. When the box body 10 and the anti-escape net 6 are pushed inward, it can be ensured that the anti-escape net 6 always corresponds to the open end of the box body 10, thereby improving safety.

[0055] One embodiment of the present invention provides a cabinet for raising reptiles, in which a heating plate 23 is provided at one end of the box body 10. The heating plate 23 heats one end of the box body 10 so that hot and cold zones are formed at both ends of the box body 10. The heating plate 23 includes a plate-shaped heating device. The heating plate 23 can be an integral heating component that generates heat by itself, or a conductive heating component formed by a heat conducting plate and a heating element such as a resistance wire. The heating plate 23 is provided at one end of the shell to form a hot and cold gradient, so that the reptiles can find a suitable living temperature among the many temperatures in the box body 10, which is beneficial to the breeding of reptiles. Figure 1 As shown, the heating plate 23 corresponds to the bottom of the box body 10, and the heat rises, which facilitates the heating of the corresponding position of the heating plate 23. The plate-like structure can provide a large heating area, so that one end of the box body 10 can be heated steadily, and there will be no risk of concentrated heat dissipation at a single point causing the temperature in a certain place in the box body 10 to be too high. A push spring 24 is connected between the bottom of the heating plate 23 and the frame 1 to raise the height of the bottom of the heating plate 23. The push spring 24 pushes the heating plate 23 to abut the box body 10. The push spring 24 enables the upper heating surface of the heating plate 23 to fit the box body 10, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the heating plate 23 and reducing heat loss. In addition, the push spring 24 lifts the heating plate 23, and also enables the heating plate 23 to provide auxiliary support for the box body 10, thereby reducing the contact pressure between the flange 11 on the outside of the open end of the box body 10 and the guide rod 5, thereby reducing the friction of the box body 10 sliding along the guide rod 5. In order to ensure the reliability of the setting of the push spring 24, as shown Figure 11 As shown, a guide bolt 25 is provided on the frame 1, and a through hole for matching the wire bolt is provided on the heating plate 23. The upper end of the guide bolt 25 is provided with a nut with a diameter larger than the through hole. The lower end of the guide bolt 25 passes downward through the through hole and the push spring 24 in sequence and is fixed with the frame 1 through a thread. The guide bolt 25 can limit the axial position of the push spring 24 to play the role of retracting the wire, and at the same time limit the maximum height that the push spring 24 can push out to the heating plate 23, thereby preventing the heating plate 23 from exerting excessive pressure on the box body 10.

[0056] In the present invention, the installation cavity 26 can be arranged in any layer, and any number of boxes 10 can be arranged in each layer of the installation cavity 26, which can be the same or different. Figure 1 In the embodiment shown, the frame 1 is provided with four layers of longitudinally spaced mounting cavities 26, each of which is provided with three guide rods 5, i.e., two boxes 10 are provided on each layer. The guide rods 5 are arranged in parallel, and the guide portion includes guide grooves arranged oppositely on adjacent guide rods 5. The guide grooves arranged oppositely on adjacent guide rods 5 form a guide groove group capable of mounting the sliding adjustment plate 7. The three guide rods 5 slide to mount the two boxes 10, thereby enabling the simultaneous mounting of multiple boxes 10 and the simultaneous breeding of a large number of reptiles. Furthermore, in order to facilitate the adjustment of the light beams of the boxes 10, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 The cabinet for raising reptiles, as shown in one embodiment of the present invention, has a raised layer 27 provided within the frame 1. The raised layer 27 is provided with a light source 28 that illuminates the interior of the box body 10. A first connecting rod 29 is provided at the upper end of the raised layer 27 to connect two adjacent longitudinal rods 4. The first connecting rod 29 is provided with two parallel vertical rods 3 at both ends of the raised layer 27. The first connecting rod 29 is provided with a first clamp 30 fixed to the longitudinal rod 4 at both ends. The first clamp 30 can be loosened to adjust the position of the first connecting rod 29 on the longitudinal rod 4. The first connecting rod 29 is provided with a second clamp 31. The second clamp 31 is fixedly connected to the second connecting rod 32. The second connecting rod 32 is parallel to the cross bar 2. The position of the second connecting rod 32 relative to the first connecting rod 29 is adjusted by the second clamp 31. The second connecting rod 32 can be horizontally arranged on the upper side of the box body 10 below the raised layer 27. The second connecting rod 32 can be wound and the light source 28 can be arranged. The horizontal position and height position of the light source 28 are easy to adjust. The light source 28 can be a spotlight that emits light and heat to provide heating for pets, and can also be installed with lighting or other functional equipment. For the present invention, it can be as follows Figure 1 As shown, all conventional mounting cavities 26 are used to match the height of the box body 10, and can also be used as shown. Figure 2 The illustrated embodiment uses a hybrid arrangement of a raised layer 27 and a conventional mounting cavity 26. Based on the arrangement of the light source 28, the sliding adjustment plate 7 is made of a high-temperature resistant polycarbonate sheet or polycarbonate sheet, which can improve the ability of the sliding adjustment plate 7 to adjust the light within the box body 10.

The blocking mechanism 33 is located on the front side of the frame 1, that is, the side where the box body 10 is pulled out. The blocking mechanism 33 includes a blocking piece 34, which is rotatably mounted on the frame 1. The blocking piece 34 includes a blocking portion 35. The blocking piece 34 rotates so that the blocking portion 35 can block the box body 10 or move away from the box body 10. Specifically, the blocking mechanism 33 includes a limiting post 36 mounted on the frame 1. The blocking piece 34 is rotatably mounted on the limiting post 36. The connection between the blocking piece 34 and the limiting post 36 is a flat plate structure. The blocking piece 34 is connected to the outer end of the flat plate structure. The blocking piece 34 has a cylindrical arc surface shape. The outer end of the limiting post 36 is provided with a blocking cap to prevent the blocking piece 34 from falling out. The limiting post 36 limits the rotation axis of the blocking piece 34. The blocking piece 34 rotates around the limiting post 36 to adjust its position, making adjustment convenient. Furthermore, the limiting post 36 is provided with a return spring 37 that elastically pushes the blocking piece 34. The return spring 37 pushes the blocking piece 34 to the box body 10 to ensure that the blocking piece 34 limits the box body 10 , and at the same time allows the box body 10 to be pushed out with a certain elastic margin, which facilitates the operation of the blocking piece 34 .
