[0034] It should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present utility model.

[0035] In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "a plurality of" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise specifically defined. In addition, unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "mounted", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0036] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the first feature being "on" or "under" the second feature can be that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are indirectly in contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "over" and "on top of" the second feature can be that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a higher horizontal height than the second feature. The first feature being "under", "beneath" and "underneath" the second feature can be that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or merely indicates that the first feature has a lower horizontal height than the second feature.

[0037] The present utility model provides a technical solution: an electric lifting transfer vehicle for non-human primates, which includes a vehicle frame 1, a transfer cage 2, and a lifting motor 4. At least one shelf is provided in the height direction of the vehicle frame 1, and the transfer cage 2 is arranged on the shelf through a bracket 3. Among them, a threaded rod 5 is further arranged in the height direction of the vehicle frame 1, a threaded sleeve 6 is arranged on the bracket 3, and the threaded sleeve 6 is threadedly connected with the threaded rod 5. The lifting motor 4 drives the threaded rod 5 to rotate, so that the threaded sleeve 6 makes a linear motion on the threaded rod 5, thereby driving the bracket 3 to move up and down.

[0038] Specifically, this transfer vehicle is equipped with a lifting motor 4. During operation, the rotating components inside the lifting motor 4 rotate, thereby driving the threaded rod 5 to rotate. The threaded sleeve 6 threadedly connected to the threaded rod 5 will move along the axis direction of the threaded rod 5, and this movement mode is a linear motion. In this way, by controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the lifting motor 4, the lifting movement of the threaded sleeve 6 can be realized. When the lifting motor 4 rotates forward, the threaded sleeve 6 moves upward along the threaded rod 5, thereby driving the bracket 3 to rise; when the lifting motor 4 rotates in reverse, the threaded sleeve 6 moves downward, thereby driving the bracket 3 to descend. Further, the lifting speed of the bracket 3 can also be controlled by adjusting the rotation speed of the lifting motor 4. Therefore, this transfer vehicle can make the transfer cage 2 lift arbitrarily within the height range of the vehicle frame 1 to adapt to breeding cages of different heights, thereby facilitating the transfer of non-human primates.

[0039] As an alternative implementation manner, in some embodiments, the transfer cage 2 is provided with a lifting door 7, a column fence 8 is arranged inside the lifting door 7, and a door handle 9 is arranged on the lifting door 7. Among them, a vertical column fence 8 is installed inside the lifting door 7 to prevent non-human primates from escaping from the transfer cage 2. The column fence 8 can also be arranged horizontally or obliquely, as long as it can prevent non-human primates from escaping from the transfer cage 2. The setting of the door handle 9 facilitates the breeding personnel to open the transfer cage 2.

[0040] In the above-mentioned embodiment, further, a push-pull lock 10 is arranged near the lifting door 7 of the transfer cage 2; pushing the lock handle of the push-pull lock 10 makes the lock piece of the push-pull lock 10 move forward and then abut against the door wall of the lifting door 7, and pressing the lock core of the push-pull lock 10 makes the lock piece of the push-pull lock 10 rebound and then separate from the door wall of the lifting door 7. Among them, in order to prevent non-human primates from lifting the lifting door 7 by themselves and escaping, this transfer cage 2 is equipped with a push-pull lock 10 to lock and stabilize the lifting door 7. When the lock piece abuts against the door wall, the opening operation of the lifting door 7 can be blocked to prevent non-human primates from escaping during the transfer process.

[0041] As an alternative embodiment, in some embodiments, a bracket 17 is provided on the top side surface of the transfer cage 2, a movable pulley 18 is installed on the bracket 17, a rope 19 is provided on the movable pulley 18, and one end of the rope 19 is fixedly connected to the door handle 9. Among them, the transfer cage 2 utilizes the design of the movable pulley to lift the lifting door 7 of the transfer cage 2, which can be operated by a single person, saving time and effort and reducing labor costs.

[0042] As an alternative embodiment, in some embodiments, the left side surface, right side surface, top side surface, and rear side surface of the transfer cage 2 are made of stainless steel plate walls, a fence is provided on the bottom side surface of the transfer cage 2, and a tray 11 is provided below the transfer cage 2.

[0043] Specifically, the left side surface, right side surface, top side surface, and rear side surface of the transfer cage 2 being made of stainless steel plate walls can, on the one hand, prevent non-human primates from being affected otherwise during the transfer process, reduce fright, and facilitate their transfer to the behavior training cage for training or to other laboratories for experiments in a quiet state. On the other hand, it can prevent non-human primates from stretching their hands or mouths outside the transfer cage 2 and scratching or biting the breeding personnel during the transfer process, ensuring the safety of the breeding personnel. And the design of having a fence on the bottom side surface of the transfer cage 2 and a tray 11 below the transfer cage 2 allows the feces and urine of non-human primates to leak from the fence into the tray 11, thus ensuring the cleanliness inside the transfer cage 2 and also facilitating the flushing of the transfer cage 2. In addition, the tray 11 only needs to be pulled out for flushing, which is convenient to operate.

[0044] As an alternative embodiment, in some embodiments, a handle 12 is provided on the transfer cage 2. Among them, installing the handle 12 facilitates the breeding personnel to lift the transfer cage 2 for transfer.

[0045] As an alternative embodiment, in some embodiments, a number of vertical rods 13 are further provided on the frame 1 along the height direction. The vertical rods 13 are parallel and spaced apart from the threaded rod 5. A number of sleeves 14 are also provided on the bracket 3. The number of sleeves 14 corresponds to the number of vertical rods 13 one by one, and the sleeves 14 are sleeved on the vertical rods 13. Among them, this design can bear part of the weight of the bracket 3 and the transfer cage 2. At the same time, it does not prevent the lifting of the bracket 3, improving the overall stability.

[0046] As an alternative embodiment, in some embodiments, the bracket 3 and the transfer cage 2 are fixed by a buckle 20. In this way, it can effectively prevent the transfer cage 2 from shifting and causing non-human primates to escape.

[0047] As an alternative embodiment, in some embodiments, universal wheels 15 are installed at the bottom of the frame 1, and locking buckles 16 are provided on the universal wheels 15. Among them, in order to facilitate steering, universal wheels 15 are installed at the bottom of the frame 1. At the same time, in order to facilitate fixing the transporter when the operation stops, locking buckles 16 are installed on the universal wheels 15.

[0048] As an alternative embodiment, in some embodiments, a transfer channel 21 is further included. Openings are provided on the front side and the rear side of the transfer channel 21. Fences 22 are provided on the left side, the right side, the top side, and the bottom side of the transfer channel 21. The transfer channel 21 is arranged at the cage door of the transfer cage 2. Among them, through the arrangement of the transfer channel 21, the non-human primates can enter and exit the transfer cage 2 boldly, avoiding the generation of fear. Further, the fence 22 on the bottom side of the transfer channel 21 can be designed to be relatively denser than the left side, the right side, and the top side, so as to prevent the non-human primates from stepping into the void when walking on it. In addition, hooks can be provided on the transfer channel 21 and hung on the transfer cage 2. In this way, not only can a certain stability be ensured, but also the installation and disassembly are convenient.
