Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of drinking water for experimental animals, in particular to a drinking fountain for experimental animals which is easy to clean. Background Art

[0002] The experimental animal waterer is a waterer designed specifically for laboratory animals. The experimental animal waterer can better ensure the health of experimental animals and control the amount of water they drink, preventing them from being unable to meet experimental requirements due to lack of water or improper control of drinking water.

[0003] Existing drinking fountains for laboratory animals still have the following shortcomings: when the existing device is in use, the water outlet of the drinking fountain is excessively exposed. Due to the certain uncontrollability of the laboratory animal breeding environment, the water outlet is easily contaminated by the mouthparts or feces of the experimental animals, causing the drinking fountain to be contaminated. In addition, the amount of water consumed by experimental animals needs to be reasonably controlled, and the existing device does not take this into account. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects, the utility model provides a drinking fountain for experimental animals that is easy to clean, thereby solving the problems in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a drinking fountain for experimental animals that is easy to clean, comprising:

[0006] An L-shaped folding plate, a water box is movably connected to the L-shaped folding plate, and a slope plate is fixedly connected to the water box;

[0007] A water tank is fixedly connected to one side of the L-shaped folding plate. A pollution-proof plastic pipe is provided at the bottom of the water tank. Two limit clamping plates are fixedly connected to the top of the water tank. Two limit grooves and several clamping grooves are provided on the limit clamping plates. A quantitative water supply mechanism is provided in the water tank.

[0008] As a further solution of the present invention: the quantitative water supply mechanism includes a piston plate slidably connected to the water tank, and a discharge stopper rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the piston plate.

[0020] The technical solution of this patent is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the utility model provides a technical solution:

[0022] An L-shaped folding plate 1 is movably connected to a water box 2, and a slope plate 3 is fixedly connected to the water box 2;

[0023] Specifically, the L-shaped folding plate 1 can provide support for the entire device, and the experimental animals can drink water from the drinking water box 2. The function of the slope plate 3 in the drinking water box 2 is to allow water to flow to the side with a smaller slope, thereby preventing the experimental animals from contacting the side of the water tank 4;

[0024] The water tank 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the L-shaped folding plate 1. The bottom of the water tank 4 is connected to an anti-pollution plastic pipe 5. The top of the water tank 4 is fixedly connected to two limit clamping plates 6. The limit clamping plates 6 are provided with two limit grooves and a plurality of clamping grooves. A quantitative water supply mechanism is provided in the water tank 4.

[0025] The quantitative water supply mechanism includes a piston plate 7 slidably connected to the water tank 4, and a lead-out stopper rod 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the piston plate 7. The lead-out stopper rod 8 is hollow and has two notches on the top. The lead-out stopper rod 8 is slidably connected to the anti-pollution plastic tube 5. The top of the piston plate 7 is rotatably connected to a threaded rod 9, which passes through the top of the water tank 4 and is threadedly connected thereto. A servo motor 10 is provided between the two limit clamping plates 6. A pair of sliding plates 11 are fixedly connected to both sides of the servo motor 10. The two sliding plates 11 on the corresponding side are slidably connected to the limit clamping plates 6 on the corresponding side. A limit plate 12 is provided in the clamping groove. A water inlet pipe is provided on one side of the water tank 4, and a stop valve 13 is provided on the water inlet pipe;

[0026] Specifically, when feeding water to the experimental animals, first insert the limit plate 12 into the designated clamping groove according to the water drinking amount of the experimental animals, and then start the servo motor 10. The servo motor 10 can control the rotation of the threaded rod 9. Since the threaded rod 9 is threadedly connected to the water tank 4, the servo motor 10 and the threaded rod 9 move downward relative to the water tank 4 as a whole, and the piston plate 7 will also move downward synchronously, thereby compressing the water in the water tank 4. The water in the water tank 4 will flow into the notch at the top of the outlet stopper rod 8 and be sprayed out from the bottom of the outlet stopper rod 8. The water in the water tank 4 can be introduced from the water inlet pipe by opening the stop valve 13. In order to avoid contamination of the water outlet position at the bottom of the outlet stopper rod 8, the utility model sets the outlet stopper rod 8 in the anti-pollution plastic tube 5, thereby preventing the experimental animals from contacting the outlet stopper rod 8 and affecting the hygiene of the outlet stopper rod 8.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model is:

[0028] The L-shaped folding plate 1 can provide support for the entire device. The experimental animals can drink water from the drinking water box 2. The function of the slope plate 3 in the drinking water box 2 is to allow water to flow to the side with a smaller slope, thereby preventing the experimental animals from contacting the side of the water tank 4.

[0029] When feeding water to the experimental animals, first insert the limit plate 12 into the designated clamping groove according to the water drinking amount of the experimental animals, and then start the servo motor 10. The servo motor 10 can control the rotation of the threaded rod 9. Since the threaded rod 9 is threadedly connected to the water tank 4, the servo motor 10 and the threaded rod 9 move downward relative to the water tank 4 as a whole, and the piston plate 7 will also move downward synchronously, thereby compressing the water in the water tank 4. The water in the water tank 4 will flow into the notch at the top of the outlet stopper rod 8 and be sprayed out from the bottom of the outlet stopper rod 8. The water in the water tank 4 can be introduced from the water inlet pipe by opening the stop valve 13. In order to avoid contamination of the water outlet position at the bottom of the outlet stopper rod 8, the utility model sets the outlet stopper rod 8 in the anti-pollution plastic tube 5, thereby preventing the experimental animals from contacting the outlet stopper rod 8 and affecting the hygiene of the outlet stopper rod 8.

[0030] The above describes in detail the preferred embodiments of this patent, but this patent is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in this field without departing from the purpose of this patent.
