Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of animal sampling, and in particular relates to a sampling device for animal surface parasites. Background Art

[0002] In the fields of veterinary medicine, parasitology, and animal health management, accurately obtaining samples of animal surface parasites is a key prerequisite for in-depth research on parasite characteristics, transmission patterns, pathogenic mechanisms, and the development of effective prevention and control strategies. However, existing animal surface parasite sampling methods and devices have numerous limitations, making them difficult to meet the needs of scientific research and practical applications.

[0003] Traditional manual sampling methods, such as using tweezers or brushes to collect parasites directly from the animal's surface, are not only cumbersome and inefficient, but can also easily cause harm to the operator. Manual close-range sampling is particularly risky for aggressive, small, and agile animals, and it is difficult to ensure comprehensive and accurate sampling, making it easy to miss parasite samples and impacting the reliability of subsequent research results.

[0004] Some existing sampling devices are complex, costly, and require specialized personnel for operation and maintenance, limiting their widespread use in settings such as primary veterinary clinics, farms, and field research. Furthermore, these devices often fail to automatically collect and classify parasites, making samples susceptible to contamination during the collection process, reducing their quality and usability. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned problems, the object of the present invention is to provide a sampling device for animal surface parasites.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is: a sampling device for animal surface parasites, comprising:

[0009] A sampling assembly includes a passing ring disposed in the middle section of the sampling box body and sampling comb teeth movably disposed inside the passing ring, for scraping parasites off the animal's body surface using the sampling comb teeth when the animal passes through the passing ring.

[0022] Furthermore, an airbag is provided under each of the pressure plates, the upper end of the airbag is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pressure plate, the lower end of the airbag is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sampling box body, the middle part of the airbag is connected to the side of the passing ring through a pipe, and is connected to multiple piston channels, which is used to ventilate and pressurize the piston channel when the pressure plate descends, so that the sampling comb teeth extend, and to evacuate and reduce the pressure in the piston channel when the pressure plate rises, so that the sampling comb teeth retract, and the parasites adhered between the sampling comb teeth are scraped off the limiting ring and slide into the output tube through the inner side of the passing ring.

[0023] Furthermore, the collection box includes:

[0024] A base is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the sampling box body, and a central axis is vertically arranged at the center of the base;

[0025] A box body is movably sleeved on the outside of the central axis, the collecting chambers are circumferentially arranged on the box body, and the outside of each collecting chamber is opened;

[0035] Furthermore, a bell is hung on the movable door, which is used to ring when the door is opened or closed, scaring animals to escape from the opening on the other side.

[0036] The working method of the present invention is as follows: an attractant is placed in the attractant box to attract animals. For example, mice are attracted by the attractant and enter from either end of the sampling box body. After entering, the mouse steps on the pressure plate. Under the action of its weight, the pressure plate descends, and the movable door is driven to close by the first linkage component to prevent the mouse from escaping along the original path. At the same time, the box body of the collection box is driven to rotate by the second linkage component, so that multiple collection chambers are connected to the output tube in sequence, and the air bag is compressed by the pressure plate, and the gas in the air bag is squeezed into the piston channel passing through the ring, so that the sampling comb teeth extend, and the movable door is closed. The bell rings, scaring the mouse and forcing it to escape from the other end. The mouse drills through the passing ring while escaping, and the sampling comb teeth scrape off the parasites on its body surface. After the mouse escapes, the pressure plate rises and resets under the action of the spring, driving the movable door to open and the airbag to recover, extracting the gas in the piston channel, causing the sampling comb teeth to retract, and the parasites adhered between the sampling comb teeth are scraped off the limiting ring, slide down through the inner side of the passing ring, and slide into the collection chamber of the sampling box through the output tube. During the rising process, the pressure plate will not drive the box body to rotate due to the action of the ratchet pawl; repeat the above steps to classify and collect the parasites on the body surfaces of multiple mice.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0038] The present invention can emit attractants through the attractant box to attract animals to enter the sampling box body, increase the probability of animals entering the device, and make sampling easier. After the animal enters, it steps on the pressure plate, which can automatically close the movable door to prevent it from escaping the original route, ensuring that the animal passes through the loop according to the set route, and increasing the chance of parasites being scraped. When the pressure plate descends, it drives the collection box to rotate, and multiple collection chambers are connected to the output tube in turn to achieve the classified collection of parasites from different animals, which is convenient for subsequent research and analysis. The cooperation between the air bag and the sampling comb teeth controls the extension and retraction of the sampling comb teeth at different stages of animal entry and escape, effectively scraping parasites and making them fall into the collection box, thereby improving sampling efficiency.

[0039] The circumferentially arranged, open-outer collection chambers of the present invention, combined with a removable collection slot, facilitate sample retrieval and storage, while also preventing cross-contamination between samples. Each independent collection chamber ensures the integrity and purity of each sample, facilitating accurate analysis of parasite characteristics such as species and abundance.

[0040] The present invention utilizes the animal's own gravity and mechanical linkage components to achieve automatic sampling, collection and other operations, without the need for complex manual intervention and electronic component control, reducing operational difficulty and labor intensity, and does not involve complex circuit connections, further reducing use and maintenance costs.

[0041] The present invention is suitable for sampling parasites on the surface of various animals. Taking mice as an example, it can be extended to other common animals carrying parasites. It provides a universal sampling tool for animal disease research, parasite prevention and control and other fields, which is helpful for the development of related scientific research work and the formulation of practical prevention and control measures.
