Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of guinea pig grasping, in particular to a guinea pig grasping device for experiments. Background Art

[0002] Guinea pigs for experiments are basically kept in ground pens or relatively large open feeding boxes. When catching guinea pigs, people like to grab them with bare hands. Because guinea pigs are timid and easily startled, they run around in the ground pens or feeding boxes when they are caught. Guinea pigs are short and thick, so if you grab them directly by the neck, they are likely to break free, resulting in ruptured livers and congestion of the spleen in the process of grabbing them due to excessive force, and even guinea pigs biting people due to improper grabbing. In addition, when experimenters catch guinea pigs with their hands, they will be frightened and their adrenaline will increase. And grabbing guinea pigs with bare hands will also cause the guinea pigs to be scratched by their four toes, just like rats. The soles of their feet are covered with padding during the breeding process, and they are not worn or trimmed, so they are sharp. Guinea pigs are easily scratched by their four toes during the grabbing process, which affects the use of guinea pigs as experimental animals. Utility Model Content

By placing the second fixing column 7 in the limiting groove 8 on the long rod 5, the cover plate 2 can be fixed parallel to the ground, and the climbing ramp 13 is inclined, which is convenient for the guinea pig to enter the grab box 1 for grabbing, and when the guinea pig enters the grab box 1, it will press down on the pedal 11, and then the long rod 5 will be driven to slide through the climbing ramp 13, which will cause the second fixing column 7 to disengage from the limiting groove 8 and automatically close the cover plate 2 to capture the guinea pig. The operation is simple and convenient, and no manual intervention is required, saving time and effort.

[0027] Among them, the top of the grab box 1 is rotatably connected with a top cover 14, and a pull handle 15 is fixedly connected to the top cover 14. A vent 16 is provided on the grab box 1, and a baffle 17 is fixedly connected inside the grab box 1. A handle 18 is fixedly connected to the side of the grab box 1 away from the cover plate 2. The diameter of the limit ring 4 is larger than the diameter of the first fixed column 3. The first fixed column 3 is provided with two groups and is symmetrically arranged. The diameter of the limit ring 4 is larger than the width of the slide groove 6. The shape of the long rod 5 is L-shaped, and the shape of the connecting rod 9 is L-shaped. The connecting rod 9 is provided with two groups and is respectively located on both sides of the grab box 1. One end of the connecting rod 9 is attached to the long rod 5, and there are two groups of springs 10. There are two groups of square grooves 12. The pedal 11 passes through and slides in the square groove 12. One end of the rod 9 is rotatably connected to the pedal 11, the top cover 14 is made of transparent material, two groups of vents 16 are provided and are located on both sides of the grab box 1, the handle 18 is U-shaped, the climbing ramp 13 is inclined, the top of the climbing ramp 13 is parallel to the top of the pedal 11, and one end of the top cover 14 is attached to the top of the baffle 17.

[0028] Working principle of the utility model: when in use, the operator holds the handle 18 to place the device at the position where the guinea pig is raised, then rotates the cover plate 2 by ninety degrees, and then slides the long rod 5 to make the first fixed column 3 slide in the slide groove 6. At this time, the long rod 5 is rotated to make the second fixed column 7 on the grab box 1 located in the limit groove 8 on the long rod 5. Finally, the long rod 5 is pulled toward the direction of the handle 18 to make the second fixed column 7 completely located in the limit groove 8, and the cover plate 2 is fixed by the long rod 5. When the guinea pig enters the grab box 1 through the climbing slope 13, it will step on the pedal 11. When the pedal 11 is stepped on, the spring 10 is compressed so that the two sides of the pedal 11 slide downward in the square groove 12, and then the connecting rod 9 is driven to rotate by stepping on the pedal 11. The connecting rod 9 pushes the long rod 5 to slide in the direction of the handle 18 and makes the first fixed column 3 slide in the slide groove 6. At this time, the second fixed column 7 is disengaged from the limiting groove 8, and the cover plate 2 is no longer fixed, so that the cover plate 2 is closed, and the guinea pig is captured. At this time, the internal situation can be observed through the top cover 14. When the guinea pig needs to be taken out, the top cover 14 is opened by pinching the pull handle 15, and the guinea pig inside can be taken out.

[0029] The above describes the utility model and its implementation methods, which is not restrictive. What is shown in the full text is only one of the implementation methods of the utility model, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if ordinary technicians in this field are inspired by it, without departing from the purpose of the invention of the utility model, they can design a structure and embodiment similar to the technical solution without creativity, which should belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
