Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to experimental apparatus, in particular to a transfer container for experimental monkeys. Background Art

[0002] A transfer container for experimental monkeys is a container used to temporarily hold animals during transportation and transfer. It mainly restricts the movement of animals, prevents animals from escaping, and completes the transportation and transfer of experimental monkeys between different locations.

[0003] Existing transfer containers for experimental monkeys are generally hexahedrons, welded by iron wires, with one side being openable and usually fixed by twisting the iron wires. When an experimental monkey needs to be transported and transferred across locations, the monkey is grabbed and placed in the transfer container, the door is closed, and the iron wires are twisted and fixed. Then, the transfer container is transported to a transport vehicle to achieve the temporary fixation of the experimental monkey during cross-location transportation. The problems of transfer containers for experimental monkeys with such structures are as follows:

[0004] 1. The six sides of the transfer container are ventilated, the iron wires are prone to rust, which is easy to hurt people and monkeys. Moreover, the monkeys are in direct contact with the outside world, which not only violates the requirements of animal welfare but also increases the risk of personnel injury;

[0005] 2. During the transfer of experimental monkeys, feces and urine excreta are directly exposed to the outside world, which is prone to cause cross-contamination;

[0006] 3. The door of the transfer container for experimental monkeys is often fixed by iron wires, which is cumbersome to operate and has poor fixing stability. It may cause the animals to escape during transfer, leading to public health and safety incidents;

[0007] 4. When an animal needs to be placed in a cage from the transfer container, the operation is not convenient, and the matching degree with the cage door of the monkey is poor, so the animal is prone to escape. Summary of the Utility Model

[0023] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 For a transport container for experimental monkeys of the present utility model, its main body includes a box body 10 and a top cover 11 welded by stainless steel thin plates. The rear side of the top cover 11 is connected to the upper end of the box body 10 through hinges 15 arranged at longitudinal intervals, and a latch 16 acting on the box body 10 is fixedly arranged on the front side of the top cover 11. All main components of the transport container are made of non-rusting steel plates and profiles, with a long service life. The interior of the container is smooth, ensuring high safety for experimental monkeys during transportation and complete isolation from humans, thus guaranteeing the safety of both experimental monkeys and personnel.

[0024] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 Inside the box body 10, vertical stainless steel partitions 12 are fixedly arranged at longitudinal intervals, dividing the inner cavity of the box body 10 into multiple spaces for accommodating experimental monkeys, that is, this transport container can transfer multiple experimental monkeys at a time, effectively improving the transport efficiency. The upper parts of the front and rear side walls of the box body 10 are provided with ventilation holes 14 at longitudinal and transverse intervals, and access passages 13 corresponding to each accommodation space for experimental monkeys are opened in the middle and lower parts of the front side wall. And a sliding door mechanism covering the access passage 13 is correspondingly arranged on the front side wall, which is convenient for experimental monkeys to enter the monkey cage from the transport container, and can be docked with the cage through the sliding door mechanism of each area, so as to realize releasing animals in different partitions into different cages in sequence, greatly improving the transport speed of experimental monkeys. The size of the access passage 13 matches that of the small door of the cage, reducing the risk of animal escape during transportation.

[0025] Refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 Inside each accommodation space for experimental monkeys, a stainless steel grille 18 is fixedly arranged at a certain height from the bottom wall of the box body 10. During transportation, the feces and urine excretions of experimental monkeys will not be exposed to the outside, to a certain extent avoiding the risk of cross-contamination. The height of the stainless steel grille 18 from the bottom wall of the box body 10 is generally 2 - 5 cm.

[0026] Refer to Figure 1, the sliding door mechanism is composed of a stainless - steel door panel 20, a stainless - steel chute 21, and an elastic buckle 22. The stainless - steel chute 21 is welded and fixed on the front side wall of the box body 10 outside the access passage 13. The stainless - steel door panel 20 is inserted into the stainless - steel chute 21, and the elastic buckle 22 is fixedly arranged at the opening end of the stainless - steel door panel 20. A positioning hole is provided on the front side wall of the box body 10. When the stainless - steel door panel 20 is in the closed state, the pin of the elastic buckle 22 passes through the corresponding positioning hole. Usually, on the front side wall of the box body 10, the stainless - steel door panels 20 located on the longitudinal two sides of the box body 10 slide outward longitudinally, and the other stainless - steel door panels 20 slide upward vertically.

[0027] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , stainless - steel handles 17 are fixedly arranged on the left and right side walls of the box body 10.

[0028] Refer to Figure 1 , when it is necessary to transfer experimental monkeys across locations, prepare a set of clean stainless - steel transfer containers and the supporting stainless - steel door panels 20. Insert the stainless - steel door panels 20 into the corresponding stainless - steel chutes 21. The top of the stainless - steel door panels 20 is fixedly connected to the box body 10 through the elastic buckles 22. Pull up the elastic buckles 22, and the stainless - steel door panels 20 slide outward longitudinally or upward vertically, so that the access passage 13 is exposed. Wait for the experimental monkeys to enter the interior of the transfer container through the access passage 13, and quickly slide the stainless - steel door panels 20 in the reverse direction, and lock the stainless - steel door panels 20 through the elastic buckles 22. When it is necessary to transfer the experimental monkeys from the transfer container to the monkey cage, align the stainless - steel door panel 20 of the transfer container with the small door of the monkey cage, slide open the stainless - steel door panel 20 to expose the access passage 13, and the experimental monkeys can freely enter the monkey cage. The whole transfer process can effectively prevent the escape of experimental monkeys.

[0029] The experimental monkeys are relatively isolated from the outside world inside the transfer container, and can also establish a certain connection with the outside world through the ventilation holes 14 in the upper parts of the front and rear side walls of the box body 10, and are in a relatively comfortable state. The feces and urine are collected in the gap between the bottom wall of the box body 10 and the stainless - steel grille 18, which not only ensures the welfare of the experimental monkeys, but also avoids cross - contamination of feces and urine, and also ensures the safety of the transfer operators and experimental monkeys. The durability, safety, and convenience of the transfer container are greatly improved.
