[0028] At the same time, in the description of this specification, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly stipulated and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal connection of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model can be understood by specific circumstances.

[0029] At present, glove boxes are often used as sterile operating boxes for mouse experiments. The glove boxes are equipped with operating gloves, ventilation devices, sterilization devices and other experimental equipment. The operating gloves are generally installed on the glove fixing ring on the front side of the glove box. During the experiment, the technician can perform experimental operations on the mice in the box by putting his hands into the operating gloves. However, since the glove fixing ring is fixed on the front side panel of the glove box, the flexibility and range of motion of the technician's arms are very limited, which not only affects the grasping of the mice, but also easily makes the technician's arms tired, which is not conducive to the progress of the experiment.

[0030] Therefore, the design concept of the present application is to design the hand operation part to be movable, increase the flexibility and range of motion of the technician's arm, better grasp the mouse, reduce the technician's arm fatigue, and better promote the progress of the experiment.

[0031] Example 1

[0032] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the present application provides a sterile operating box for studying mice, including a box body 1 (glove box), the box body 1 is provided with operating gloves, a moving mechanism is provided on the front side panel of the box body 1, the moving mechanism is connected with a glove ring 5, and the glove ring 5 is connected to the operating gloves.

[0033] During the experiment, the technician puts his hand into the operating glove and then conducts the experiment on the box body 1. When the glove ring 5 is pushed by the arm to apply force to it, the moving mechanism will move and the technician's arm will move accordingly.

[0034] Among them, the front side of the box body 1 is provided with an installation opening 2, and the installation opening 2 is connected to the moving mechanism; during manufacturing, two square openings are opened on the front side of the box body 1 (the two square openings are the installation openings 2), and then the moving mechanism is aligned with the square openings for installation.

[0035] The moving mechanism comprises a mounting frame 3 , wherein slideways 31 are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the mounting frame 3 , and a slide plate 4 is slidably connected to the slideway 31 , and a glove ring 5 is arranged on the slide plate 4 .

[0036] The installation frame 3, the slideway 31, the slide plate 4, and the glove ring 5 are made of acrylic plates welded or bonded together. The slide plate 4 can slide back and forth on the slideway 31. After the installation frame 3 is bonded to the installation opening 2, one square opening corresponds to one slide plate 4, and the left and right movable length of one glove ring 5 is approximately the length of one square opening.

[0037] Among them, the slide plate 4 is covered with the installation opening 2; wherein, the size of the slide plate 4 is larger than the size of the installation opening 2; the area of ​​a slide plate 4 is larger than the area of ​​a square opening, so that the square opening can be completely covered to ensure that when the technician moves the slide plate 4 left and right with his arms, the square opening will not be exposed, thereby ensuring the overall integrity of the interior of the glove box.

[0038] Among them, a tight band is arranged at the wrist of the operating glove; the operating gloves generally adopt fat and large rubber gloves, which do not fit the hands very well, and the long arm part of the rubber gloves really affects the hand operation. Therefore, the present application adds a tight band at the wrist of the operating glove to make the rubber glove hand fit the technician's palm more closely and better perform experimental operations.

[0039] The moving mechanism of this embodiment has a longer service life, and the moving mechanism can slide back and forth left and right, thereby increasing the flexibility and range of motion of the technician's arm to a certain extent.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the present application provides a sterile operating box for studying mice, including a box body 1 (glove box), the box body 1 is provided with operating gloves, a moving mechanism is provided on the front side panel of the box body 1, the moving mechanism is connected with a glove ring 5, and the glove ring 5 is connected to the operating gloves.

[0042] During the experiment, the technician puts his hand into the operating glove and then conducts the experiment on the box body 1. When the glove ring 5 is pushed by the arm to apply force to it, the moving mechanism will move and the technician's arm will move accordingly.

[0043] Among them, the front side of the box body 1 is provided with an installation opening 2, and the installation opening 2 is connected to the moving mechanism; during manufacturing, a rectangular opening is opened on the front side of the box body 1 (the rectangular opening is the installation opening 2), and then the moving mechanism is aligned with the rectangular opening for installation.

[0044] The moving mechanism comprises a mounting frame 3 , the mounting frame 3 is sealed and bonded with a rubber cover 6 , and the rubber cover 6 is sealed and bonded to the glove ring 5 .

[0045] The installation frame 3 is made of acrylic plates welded or bonded. The sealing bonding means that in addition to bonding, sealant is filled for sealing. This embodiment is more suitable for experiments with higher requirements for sealing. The rubber holster 6 is soft and elastic. During manufacturing, the area of ​​the rubber holster 6 must have a large surplus relative to the area of ​​the installation port 2. When in use, the glove ring 5 can move freely without direction.

[0046] Among them, a tight band is arranged at the wrist of the operating glove; the operating gloves generally adopt fat and large rubber gloves, which do not fit the hands very well, and the long arm part of the rubber gloves really affects the hand operation. Therefore, the present application adds a tight band at the wrist of the operating glove to make the rubber glove hand fit the technician's palm more closely and better perform experimental operations.

[0047] The mobile mechanism of this embodiment not only has better sealing performance, but also has higher flexibility, and is more suitable for experiments with higher sealing requirements.

[0048] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with preferred embodiments, the present invention is not limited thereto. Without departing from the spirit and essence of the present invention, ordinary technicians in the field can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions to the embodiments of the present invention, and these modifications or substitutions should all be within the scope of the present invention. Any technician familiar with the technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, which should all be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
