Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to an animal vest for experiments. Background Art
[0002] Large experimental animals are widely used in basic animal experimental research. In some experiments, according to the requirements of the experimental design, it is necessary to perform long-term and intermittent blood sampling on the animal's portal vein. The portal vein is divided into left and right branches in the liver. The general blood sampling method is to insert the puncture needle into the intrahepatic branch of the portal vein for blood sampling through the skin and liver. Each blood sampling is traumatic to the liver. If the entire experimental research process is only a single blood sampling, the liver is only slightly damaged. However, if the experimental design cycle is long and intermittent and long-term blood sampling is required from the portal vein, it will be necessary to place a blood collection tube in the portal vein to avoid puncturing the liver every time blood is collected and reduce the occurrence of complications. However, after the blood collection tube is placed in the animal's portal vein, although the exposed skin part of the blood collection tube is fully fixed, the animal will bite and scratch the exposed part of the blood collection tube, causing the blood collection tube to fall out or even break, affecting the progress of the experiment.
[0003] Most of the existing animal vests are made by animal laboratory managers by cutting cloth by themselves, which is cumbersome to wear and has an unsatisfactory fixing effect. Meanwhile, although the animal vests purchased on the market are fixed more firmly, the vests need to be taken off every time for blood collection, which is inconvenient for blood collection.

Figure 1-3 As shown, the utility model is an experimental animal vest, comprising:
[0034] A vest body 10, which can be worn by an animal;
[0035] The vest body 10 has a blood collection tube fixing area 101, and an opening 1011 is provided in the blood collection tube fixing area 101. The opening 1011 can be opened and closed. When the opening 1011 is in an open state, the opening 1011 communicates with the space on the front and back sides of the vest body 10.
[0036] A blood collection tube fixing device 20 is provided at the opening 1011 , and the blood collection tube fixing device 20 is used to fix the blood collection tube at the opening 1011 .
[0037] In this way, by fixing the blood collection tube on the vest body 10 and providing an opening 1011 that can be opened and closed on the vest body 10, blood can be mechanically collected by opening the opening 1011 when blood collection is needed, and the opening 1011 can be closed when blood collection is not needed to prevent the blood collection tube from being torn and broken by animals or being scratched and broken by movement.
[0038] Furthermore, the blood collection tube fixing device 20 includes a guide sleeve 201, and the guide sleeve 201 is arranged at the opening 1011;
[0039] The guide sleeve 201 is used to wrap the blood collection tube and allows the blood collection tube to pass through it.
[0040] Specifically, the guide sleeve 201 is a cylindrical pipe structure, which can wrap the exposed skin part of the blood collection tube to protect the exposed skin part of the blood collection tube;
[0041] Graduation lines are arranged on the side wall of the guide sleeve 201, and the user can control the blood collection amount through the graduation lines when collecting blood.
[0042] Furthermore, the blood collection tube fixing device 20 further includes a fixing buckle 202, one end of which is fixedly connected to one side of the opening 1011, and the other end of which is detachably connected to the other side of the opening 1011;
[0043] The fixing buckle 202 circumferentially wraps around the guide sleeve 201 .
[0044] Specifically, the other end of the fixing buckle 202 is detachably connected to one side of the opening, which can be a Velcro-type connection or a rivet connection. The fixing buckle 202 can be used to fix the guide sleeve 201 to the vest body 10 to prevent the guide sleeve 201 from detaching and fix it at the opening 1011, so that the doctor can perform blood collection operations on the blood collection tube through the opening 1011.
[0045] Furthermore, at least two fixing buckles 202 are provided, and at least one fixing buckle 202 is provided at each end near the opening 1011. Such a configuration can fully fix the two ends of the guide sleeve 201 to the vest body 10, preventing the guide sleeve 201 from having an angle deviation when only one fixing buckle 202 is fixed, and not corresponding to the opening 1011, thereby affecting the blood collection operation.
[0046] By setting the above-mentioned opening 1011, the guide sleeve 201 and the fixing buckle 202, the blood collection tube can be fixed to the vest body 10 and placed inside the vest body 10 for protection. The opening 1011 can be used to control whether the blood collection tube is exposed to the outside world, thereby preventing the blood collection tube from being broken due to animal biting or scratching during movement when the blood collection operation is not being performed.
[0047] Furthermore, an alarm device 203 is provided in the blood collection tube fixing area 101, and the alarm device 203 is located on one side of the opening 1011 and is provided close to the fixing buckle 202 at one end of the opening 1011;
[0048] The early warning device 203 has a detection line 2031 , and the detection line 2031 is fixedly connected to the guide sleeve 201 .
[0049] Specifically, the early warning device 203 has a movement threshold of the detection line 2031, which is preferably 1 cm. When the guide sleeve 201 moves due to an external force, the detection line 2031 moves synchronously. When the detection line 2031 is pulled and moved more than 1 cm, the early warning device 203 can issue an alarm to prompt that the guide sleeve 201 may be misplaced or fall off the fixing buckle 202, thereby preventing the blood collection tube from falling off or being misplaced from the opening 1011.
[0050] Furthermore, a zipper structure 204 is provided at the opening 1011 , and the opening 1011 is opened and closed by the zipper structure 204 .
[0051] A locking ring 205 is provided in the blood collection tube fixing area 101, and the locking ring 205 is detachably connected to the pull ring 2041 of the zipper structure 204;
[0052] The locking ring 205 is used to lock the movement of the pull ring 2041 in the zipper structure 204 .
[0053] Specifically, during normal use, the pull ring 2041 of the zipper structure 204 is generally exposed on the front side of the vest body 10 to facilitate the doctor to pull it. Therefore, the locking ring 205 also needs to be set on the front side of the vest body 10, while the guide sleeve 201, the fixed lock buckle 202, the early warning device 203, etc. are set on the back side of the vest body 10.
[0054] The zipper structure 204 can be used to open and close the opening 1011. When the opening 1011 is closed, the pull ring 2041 is put on the locking ring 205 so that the pull ring 2041 is restricted from moving by the locking ring 205 to prevent animals from biting or scratching the pull ring 2041 to open the opening 1011 and expose the blood collection tube and the guide sleeve 201.
[0055] Furthermore, limb channels 102 are respectively provided near the four corners of the vest body 10, and the limb channels 102 can be used for the limbs of the animal to pass through, so that the vest body 10 fits the animal's body and can be worn.
[0056] Furthermore, an adjustment strap 103 is provided in the middle area of the vest body 10, the length of the adjustment strap 103 is adjustable, and a plurality of adjustment straps 103 are provided, which are arranged at intervals in the middle area of the vest body 10;
[0057] When the vest body 10 is worn on an animal, the middle area of the vest body 10 is located at the animal's back. Animals of different physiques have different back widths, so it is necessary to adjust the length of the adjustment strap 103 to adjust the tightness so that the animal can wear it comfortably.
[0058] Furthermore, a fixing strap 104 is provided at the edge of the vest body 10 , and the fixing strap 104 is elastic.
[0059] Specifically, a fixing strap 104 is provided at the edge of both sides of the vest body 10. When the vest body 10 is worn on an animal, the fixing strap 104 passes around the animal's body, and the two fixing straps 104 contact each other in the animal's abdominal area to achieve mutual fixing connection, thereby completing the wearing and fixing of the vest body 10.
[0060] The connection between the two fixing straps 104 can be set as a Velcro structure or a buckle structure, and the tightness can be adjusted according to the different connection positions when connected;
[0061] The elasticity of the fixing strap 104 can further improve the comfort of the animal when wearing it.
[0062] In summary, through the scheme of the utility model, by means of the guide sleeve 201 and the fixing buckle 202 arranged in the blood collection tube fixing area 101 of the vest body 10, the exposed skin portion of the blood collection tube can be fixed on the vest body 10, thereby realizing secondary fixation of the exposed skin portion of the blood collection tube; at the same time, an opening 1011 is provided at the setting position of the guide sleeve 201, and the opening 1011 penetrates the vest body 10. The opening 1011 is opened and closed by the zipper structure 204, so that blood collection can be realized without taking off the vest body 10, thereby preventing secondary harm to the animal, and the opening 1011 can be closed when blood collection is not needed, thereby preventing the animal from biting it or scratching it during movement to expose the blood collection tube.
