Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example: Please refer to Figure 1-7This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-temperature, high-humidity, and high-temperature-tolerance simulation experimental chamber for rats and mice, including an experimental chamber body 1. A sealing door 2 is rotatably installed on one side of the experimental chamber body 1 via a hinge. An observation window 3 is installed on the sealing door 2. A filter screen 10 is installed on the inner wall of the experimental chamber body 1. A running platform 8 and a wheeled treadmill 9 are provided inside the experimental chamber body 1. The experimental chamber body 1 is equipped with a spray structure, a temperature control structure, and a monitoring structure. A cleaning structure is provided at the bottom of the filter screen 10. The spray structure includes a water tank 4. A connecting water pipe 42 is installed at the bottom of the water tank 4. The connecting water pipe 42 extends into the interior of the experimental chamber body 1 and is equipped with a diverter plate 43. Multiple spray heads 44 are installed on the diverter plate 43. A water pump 41 is installed on the water pipe 42; the temperature control structure includes a protective cover 5, which is installed on the experimental chamber body 1. A fan 51 and a heating plate 52 are installed on the inner wall of the protective cover 5. A protective mesh plate 53 is installed on the experimental chamber body 1, and the protective mesh plate 53 is compatible with the heating plate 52. A control knob 54 is installed on the experimental chamber body 1 and is electrically connected to the heating plate 52. The monitoring structure includes an air temperature monitoring device 6, an air humidity monitoring device 61, and an air salinity monitoring device 62, which are installed on the inner wall of the experimental chamber body 1. Temperature monitoring devices are installed on the rats and mice. The experimental chamber 1 is equipped with a temperature and heart rate monitoring device, and a display device 63. An air temperature monitoring device 6, an air humidity monitoring device 61, and an air salinity monitoring device 62 are electrically connected to the display device 63. The temperature and heart rate monitoring devices are wirelessly connected to the display device 63. Salt-containing water is added to the water tank 4, pumped by the water pump 41 into the diverter plate 43, and finally sprayed into the experimental chamber 1 through the spray nozzle 44. The humidity inside the experimental chamber 1 is controlled between 55% and 95%, and the salinity between 0.1 and 0.5 mg / m³. Simultaneously, the experimental chamber 1 and the heating plate 52 are turned on, blowing hot air into the experimental chamber 1. The heating plate 52 is controlled by the control knob 54. The temperature inside the experimental chamber 1 can be controlled between 20 and 50°C. This temperature is monitored in real time by air temperature monitoring device 6, air humidity monitoring device 61, and air salinity monitoring device 62, and the results are displayed on display device 63 for researchers' reference. This allows for the simulation of a high-temperature, high-humidity, and high-salinity environment within the experimental chamber 1. Rats and mice are placed inside the experimental chamber 1 and exercised on a treadmill 8 and a wheeled treadmill 9. Temperature and heart rate are monitored by the temperature and heart rate monitoring devices, and the results are displayed on display device 63 for researchers to reference and experiment on their heat tolerance. The conclusions can then be applied to humans to study human heat tolerance and develop corresponding measures.

[0024] Furthermore, the cleaning structure includes an opening and closing door 7, a cleaning outlet 78 on one side of the experimental chamber body 1, the opening and closing door 7 being rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the cleaning outlet 78, a positioning groove 74 on one side of the inner wall of the experimental chamber body 1, a motor 71 mounted on the experimental chamber body 1, a threaded rod 713 mounted on the motor 71, the threaded rod 713 penetrating into the interior of the experimental chamber body 1 and rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the positioning groove 74, a movable block 72 threadedly mounted on the threaded rod 713, the movable block 72 being slidably mounted in the positioning groove 74, one side of a brush plate 73 mounted on the movable block 72, the other side of the brush plate 73 being slidably mounted on the inner wall of the experimental chamber body 1, the bottom of the brush plate 73 contacting the bottom inner wall of the experimental chamber body 1, and two abutments 75 mounted on the brush plate 73. Feces produced by mice and rats on the filter 10 will fall into the bottom of the experimental chamber body 1 for collection. At this time, the motor 71 is activated. The rotation of 71 drives the threaded rod 713 to rotate. Under the limiting action of the positioning groove 74 and the retaining groove 77, the rotation of the threaded rod 713 drives the movable block 72 to slide. The sliding of the movable block 72 drives the brush plate 73 to slide towards the cleaning outlet 78, bringing the fallen feces to the cleaning outlet 78 and pushing it out of the experimental chamber body 1. During the pushing process, the abutment rod 75 first contacts the opening and closing door 7, pushing the opening and closing door 7 open. This allows the feces to be completely pushed out of the experimental chamber body 1, making it convenient to clean the bottom of the experimental chamber body 1 and avoid affecting the experimental results. During the process of the opening and closing door 7 being pushed open by the abutment rod 75, the torsion spring 710 inside the opening and closing door 7 deforms. After the abutment rod 75 leaves the opening and closing door 7, the torsion spring 710 rebounds and drives the opening and closing door 7 to close inside the cleaning outlet 78, avoiding the loss of humidity and heat that may affect the experiment. The stop block 712 will block the opening and closing door 7 to prevent it from rotating too far and opening the cleaning outlet 78.

[0025] The working principle is as follows: Salt-containing water is added to the water tank 4, pumped by the water pump 41 into the diversion plate 43, and finally sprayed into the experimental chamber 1 through the spray nozzle 44. The humidity and salinity within the experimental chamber 1 are controlled. Simultaneously, the experimental chamber 1 and the heating plate 52 are turned on, blowing hot air into the experimental chamber 1. The temperature of the heating plate 52 is controlled by the control knob 54, thereby controlling the temperature within the experimental chamber 1. Real-time monitoring is achieved through the air temperature monitoring device 6, air humidity monitoring device 61, and air salinity monitoring device 62, and the results are displayed on the display device 63 for researchers' reference. This simulates a high-temperature, high-humidity, and high-salinity environment within the experimental chamber 1. Rats and mice are placed inside the experimental chamber 1 and exercised on the treadmill 8 and wheeled treadmill 9. Temperature and heart rate monitoring devices monitor these parameters, and the results are displayed on the display device 63 for researchers to reference and experiment on their heat tolerance, and to draw corresponding conclusions. When applied to humans, this method studies human heat tolerance and develops corresponding measures. During the experiment, motor 71 is started, and its rotation drives threaded rod 713 to rotate. Under the limiting action of positioning groove 74 and retaining groove 77, the rotation of threaded rod 713 drives movable block 72 to slide. The sliding of movable block 72 drives brush plate 73 to slide towards cleaning outlet 78, bringing the fallen feces to cleaning outlet 78 and pushing it out of the experimental chamber body 1. During the pushing process, the abutment rod 75 first contacts the opening and closing door 7, pushing the opening and closing door 7 open. This allows the feces to be completely pushed out of the experimental chamber body 1, facilitating the cleaning of the bottom of the experimental chamber body 1 and avoiding affecting the experimental results. During the process of the opening and closing door 7 being pushed open by the abutment rod 75, the torsion spring 710 inside the opening and closing door 7 deforms. After the abutment rod 75 leaves the opening and closing door 7, the torsion spring 710 rebounds and drives the opening and closing door 7 to close inside the cleaning outlet 78, preventing the loss of humidity and heat from affecting the experiment.
