Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of animal specimen preparation, in particular to a spine fixing bracket for animal specimens. Background Art
[0002] Animal specimens are often used in teaching, scientific research, exhibitions, popular science and other occasions. Their types mainly include immersed specimens, skinned specimens, bone specimens, dried specimens, glass slide specimens, etc. Among them, animal bone specimens are generally made of various animals. According to the needs of observation and research, they are killed, skinned, fleshed, defatted, bleached, strung and fixed to make whole bone specimens. Animal bone specimens can clearly show the bone structure inside the animal's body. They are relatively intuitive teaching aids and observation materials in the teaching of professional courses such as zoology, animal taxonomy, ecology, and comparative anatomy. They have extremely high scientific research and educational value. In the process of making animal bone specimens, the most important link is to support and connect the entire skeleton, that is, to connect and support the limb bones, head bones and spine.
[0003] In the traditional skeleton connection, the staff will first splice the vertebral bones to form a spine (and attach a bracket to the bottom of the assembled spine), pre-splice the limb bones and the head bones, and then support the spine, connect the limb bones to the spine, and connect the head bones to the spine in turn. In the prior art, there is a method of fixing the spine by means of a support table or a fixed table, but the support table or the fixed table in the prior art can only be limited to a specific angle or a specific orientation. For a specific angle, it means that no matter what kind of animal specimen is made, it can only maintain the same posture. Since the shapes of animal bone specimens are different and the overall sizes are different, in order to better display the key parts of the animal bone specimens, their postures also need to be diversified, so that the support points and postures of the spine of each animal bone specimen are different. Therefore, the existing support table or fixed table does not meet the use requirements and cannot be reused, resulting in waste of resources and increased production costs. Utility Model Content
