Description

Technical Field

[0001] A limiting structure for inspecting and treating red pandas. The invention belongs to the technical field of limiting structures, and specifically relates to the technical field of limiting structures for inspecting and treating red pandas. Background Art

[0002] In actual production, in order to facilitate veterinarians or breeders to treat, care for or check the health of animals, and to avoid injuries to people, the method of properly tying animals is called "restraint". The existing methods of animal restraint mainly include manual restraint, instrument restraint and chemical restraint. Anesthetic restraint is mainly used for big bears and beasts, that is, chemical drugs are used to reduce the animal's ability to move, so as to achieve the purpose of restraining the animal. Sedatives, tranquilizers, anesthetics, etc. are often used as restraint agents; instrument restraint is mainly used for medium and large livestock, that is, the animal is fixed by external tools, clamps or specific brackets, so that the animal loses the ability to resist in a conscious state. The restraint tools vary from species to species; for small and medium-sized or docile animals, manual restraint can be chosen, and the use of human limb strength to replace the function of the instrument to make the animal lose the ability to resist is also the most convenient restraint method.

[0003] The red panda is an animal of the Ailuridae family and the genus Ailurus. An adult red panda is about 40-60 cm long, with a tail that is more than half the length of the body. It generally weighs about 5 kg, similar in size to an adult cat or small dog. There are mainly the following methods for restraining a cat. 1. Restraining with bare hands. (1) First, place one hand under the cat's chest and abdomen, hold it up with your palm, and then use the other hand to clamp the head and neck; (2) Grasp the skin on the back of the cat's neck with your right hand, and hold up the cat's arm with your left hand so that most of the cat's weight falls on your left hand; (3) One person first grasps the skin on the back of the cat's neck, and the other person grasps the cat's two front limbs and two hind limbs with both hands to firmly fix the cat; (4) Place the cat on a table or operating table, hold the cat's neck with your left hand, and place your right hand on the cat's back and waist to prevent the cat from swinging left and right or lying prone, so as to achieve the purpose of restraint; (5) Place the cat on its side on the table, tie the two front limbs and two hind limbs together with a thin rope or bandage, tie the thin rope to the table leg, and the assistant holds the cat's head down. The method is not limited and can be adjusted according to the actual production purpose. 2. Instrument restraint. (1) Cat clamp restraint method: use a cat clamp to clamp the cat's neck so that the cat cannot move forward and backward, and then grasp the cat's front and back limbs to fix it. (2) Cat bag restraint method: a barrel-shaped cat bag made of artificial leather, coarse canvas or thick cloth, with one end of the bag closed with a drawstring and the other end open, exposing the cat's body part as needed. The restrainer grabs the cat's limbs or head through the cat bag. This restraint method is safer and more reliable for both people and cats; (3) Use a thin rope or bandage to tie the limbs together and fix them to the table legs, and then hold the cat's head down. 3. Chemical restraint method. Use sedatives, tranquilizers, anesthetics, etc. to make the cat lose its ability to resist.

[0004] Although red pandas are small in size, they are quite sensitive and can easily resist violently in actual production, causing harm to people. After years of development, zoos generally still use a relatively rough restraint method, trapping the animals in net bags and then forcibly restraining them with external force. The restraint effect is not good and it is easy to cause people to be scratched and bitten. Some zoos have developed mechanical restraint tools for red pandas, such as restraint cages. After the red panda is introduced into the restraint cage, the cage's compression function compresses the cage's activity space until it is fixed.

[0005] The existing red panda restraint methods and restraint cages have the following disadvantages: 1. Red panda restraint cage A, because the cage body is designed according to the body shape of the red panda, the restraint cage is on the ground, and personnel can only complete the operation in a squatting position, which causes personnel fatigue and inconvenience in operation; 2. Due to design reasons, after the space in the red panda restraint cage A and B is compressed, the extra railings will form a shielding effect in the space, and the reserved space for personnel operation is insufficient, resulting in difficulty in operation; 3. During the use of red panda restraint cages A and B, the animal restraint posture is limited to lying down, and it is impossible to perform multi-directional and multi-angle operations, such as it is difficult to operate on the abdomen; 4. Red panda restraint cages A and B do not reserve a special tail processing window for red pandas; 5. There is no feces tray under the red panda restraint cage B, and the feces and urine of the animal pollute the environment during the restraint period; 6. Red panda restraint cage B does not form a complete space closed loop, and it is easy for red pandas to escape during operation; 7. Red panda restraint cage B has no wheels, and the mobility of restraint cage B during transfer is not ideal. Summary of the invention

[0022] See also Figure 1-4 , the present invention provides a technical solution:

[0023] A limiting structure for checking and treating red pandas comprises a frame 1, wherein the frame 1 has a length, width and height of 600mx400mmx1000mm, is welded from 2mm thick 304 stainless steel, and plays the role of supporting, lifting and compressing a cage body; a base for placing red pandas is installed inside the frame 1, and limiting structures for preventing red pandas from breaking free are connected to both sides of the base, a blocking structure for preventing the red panda's head from extending out is fixed at one end of the base, and a movable frame 17 that can be opened and closed is arranged at the other end of the base, the movable frame 17 is welded from 304 round steel, has a width of 300mm, and a railing gap of 50mm, and is used as a door for the red panda to enter and exit the cage body; an opening 21 for the red panda's tail to extend out is arranged inside the movable frame 17, and the base, the limiting structure, the blocking structure and the movable frame 17 are used in coordination, so that the red panda can be fixed more firmly, thereby preventing the red panda from struggling during the inspection process, and facilitating the inspection of the red panda.

[0024] The base includes mounting plates 2 distributed on both sides of the frame 1, and a rotating shaft 3 is fixed between the two mounting plates 2 through a bearing, so that the user can rotate the base according to the needs of use, so as to facilitate the inspection of the abdomen of the red panda. A base frame 4 is installed on the side of the rotating shaft 3, and a connecting seat 5 is distributed on the base frame 4. A guide nut 6 is installed at the position of the mounting plate 2 corresponding to the connecting seat 5, and the guide nut 6 and the connecting seat 5 are connected by a limiting bolt 7, which makes it easy to install the limiting bolt 7, thereby preventing the base from rotating. Conversely, the base can be rotated by removing the limiting bolt 7.

[0025] The limiting structure includes a connecting ring 8 distributed on both sides of the surface of the base frame 4, a rotating shaft 2 9 is rotatably installed inside the connecting ring 8, a first arc-shaped limiting rod 10 is installed on the side of the rotating shaft 2 9 on one side of the base frame 4, and a second arc-shaped limiting rod 11 is installed on the side of the rotating shaft 2 9 on the other side of the base frame 4. The first arc-shaped limiting rod 10 and the second arc-shaped limiting rod 11 are arranged alternately, and the tops of the first arc-shaped limiting rod 10 and the second arc-shaped limiting rod 11 are both sleeved with a connecting sleeve 12, and a limiting rod 13 is installed at the end of the connecting sleeve 12, thereby the first arc-shaped limiting rod 10 and the second arc-shaped limiting rod 11 are connected. By rotating, the space size between the first arc limit rod 10 and the second arc limit rod 11 can be adjusted, so as to facilitate the limiting operation of red pandas of different sizes. Before use, the first arc limit rod 10 and the second arc limit rod 11 can be crossed, and then the connecting sleeve 12 can be installed. Under the action of the limit rod 13, the first arc limit rod 10 and the second arc limit rod 11 can be prevented from separating. The first arc limit rod 10 and the second arc limit rod 11 are welded from 304 round steel, and the railing gap is 50mm, which together form the side of the compression cage.

[0026] A limit ring 14 is distributed on the side of the connecting sleeve 12, and a limit ring 2 15 is distributed on the side of the first arc-shaped limit rod 10 and the second arc-shaped limit rod 11. A mounting hole 26 is opened at the top of the frame 1, and an L-shaped limit rod 27 is slidably installed inside the mounting hole 26. This makes it convenient to install the L-shaped limit rod 27 inside the corresponding limit ring 14 or the limit ring 2 15 according to the needs of use, so as to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the adjusted first arc-shaped limit rod 10 and the second arc-shaped limit rod 11, thereby ensuring the firmness of the fixation of the red panda.

[0027] The blocking structure includes a barrier rod 16 distributed on the mounting plate 2, which can prevent the red panda's head from sticking out without affecting the red panda's observation of the outside world. It is welded from 304 round steel, with a railing gap of 50mm to form a closed space to prevent the red panda from escaping.

[0028] The movable frame 17 includes a vertical rod slidably installed inside the top end of the frame 1, the top end of the vertical rod is arranged above the frame 1, the bottom end of the vertical rod is arranged between the top end of the frame 1 and the mounting plate 2, and a cross bar 18 is installed at the top and bottom ends of the vertical rod. Guide rings 19 are installed at both ends of the cross bar 18 between the top end of the frame 1 and the mounting plate 2, and a guide rod 20 is installed at the position corresponding to the guide ring 19 between the top end of the frame 1 and the mounting plate 2, thereby facilitating the opening or closing operation of the movable frame 17 by pulling the cross bar 18.

[0029] A guide groove 22 is provided at the inner bottom end of the frame 1 at a position corresponding to the bottom of the base frame 4. A drawer 23 is slidably installed inside the guide groove 22. Pull rings 24 are installed at both ends of the drawer 23. Therefore, if the red panda has excrement during inspection, its excrement can fall into the inside of the drawer 23, thereby effectively preventing pollution to the surrounding environment. The drawer 23 has a length and width of 600mmx420mm and can be installed and disassembled by pulling and pulling. It is used to collect the feces and urine of the red panda to avoid environmental pollution. A universal wheel (25) is installed at the bottom end of the frame 1. The universal wheel (25) is a rubber silent wheel, which can enhance the overall mobility of the multifunctional red panda restraining cage, facilitate transfer, reduce noise, and avoid causing animal stress.

[0030] Operation steps: Step 1, open the movable frame 17, and put the red panda into the compression cage; Step 2, close the movable frame 17 to form a closed space to prevent the red panda from escaping; Step 3, press down the first arc-shaped limit rod 10 and the second arc-shaped limit rod 11 on the side of the compression cage to shrink the activity space; Step 4, according to the size of the red panda, adjust the compression space to a suitable position, and insert the L-shaped limit rod 27 into the limit ring 1 or limit ring 2; the red panda has been secured. Subsequently, it is divided into multiple usage scenarios according to needs: Scenario 1, when handling the tail of the red panda, the tail of the red panda can be left outside the cage, and the operator can operate on the tail; Scenario 2, when handling the back of the red panda, the connecting sleeve 12 can be removed, and the operator can operate on the back; Scenario 3, when handling the abdomen or other parts of the red panda, the tail of the red panda is retracted into the cage, and the compression cage is rotated by the rotating shaft 13, and the operator can choose the appropriate angle to operate on a specific part.
