Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of animal experimental instruments, in particular to a securing fixture for rat head surgery. Background Art
[0002] When conducting neuroscience or cranial surgery experiments on rats, ensuring the precise fixation of the experimental animal's head is a crucial step, which is not only related to the success rate of the operation, but also directly related to the welfare and safety of the experimental animals. When the operation focuses on the rat's head, especially the skull top area, the accuracy and comfort of the fixation technology become key considerations. The design of traditional rat head fixation devices mainly relies on the pointed cone structure on both sides, which is precisely inserted into a specific position of the skull to achieve stable positioning of the head. At the same time, in order to further ensure the stability of the rat's head, the device is usually equipped with a soft rope or metal clamp at the front, which is specifically used to fix the rat's upper incisor. This design can effectively prevent any involuntary movement of the rat's head under anesthesia.
[0003] However, with the development of experimental technology, the limitations of existing fixation devices have gradually become apparent, especially in experimental scenarios requiring gas anesthesia. Gas anesthesia is widely used in experimental animal anesthesia due to its advantages such as rapid onset, ease of adjustment, and reduction of animal stress response. However, traditional rat head fixation devices do not leave gas and waste gas recovery channels after fixing the rat's head. This not only limits the application of gas anesthesia in experiments, but may also cause leakage of anesthetic gases, posing a potential risk to the health of experimental personnel. It also does not meet laboratory safety standards and environmental requirements. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a rat head surgery securing fixture, which can fix the rat head while leaving a gas passage at the front end of the rat head to facilitate anesthesia.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is: a rat head surgery fixing fixture, comprising:
[0006] Fixed plate;
[0007] Two fixing frames are fixedly arranged on the fixing plate at intervals;
[0008] A bite rod connected between the front ends of the two fixing frames;
[0009] A front fixing beam is rotatably arranged between the front portions of the two fixing frames and is used to fix the front end of the rat's head;
[0010] a rear fixing beam, rotatably disposed between the rear portions of the two fixing frames, and used for fixing the rear end of the rat's head;
[0011] Two submandibular fixing cones are provided on the inner side of each fixing frame, and are used for fixing the submandibular part of rats.
[0012] Furthermore, the front and rear sides of the fixing frame are provided with a plurality of front through holes and rear through holes, the two ends of the front fixing beam are respectively rotatably set in the two corresponding front through holes, and the two ends of the rear fixing beam are respectively rotatably set in the two corresponding rear through holes.
[0013] Furthermore, the front fixed beam includes:
[0014] Two front rotating rods are rotatably disposed in the two corresponding front through holes, and the side surfaces of the front rotating rods are provided with external threads;
[0015] A front arc rod, both ends of which are fixedly connected to the inner ends of the two front rotating rods through connecting rods, and the front arc rod is used to be fixedly clamped above the front end of the rat's head;
[0016] A front locking nut is provided on the external threaded sleeve of each front rotating rod, and is used to limit the rotation of the front rotating rod.
[0017] Furthermore, the rear fixed beam includes:
[0018] Two rear rotating rods are rotatably disposed in the corresponding two rear through holes, and the side surfaces of the rear rotating rods are provided with external threads;
[0019] A rear arc rod, both ends of which are fixedly connected to the inner ends of the two rear rotating rods through connecting rods, and the rear arc rod is used to be fixedly clamped above the rear end of the rat's head;
[0020] A rear locking nut is provided on the external threaded sleeve of each rear rotating rod to limit the rotation of the rear rotating rod.
[0021] Furthermore, a slide groove is provided on the fixing plate, and the two fixing frames are slidably arranged on the slide groove to adjust the distance between the two fixing frames.
[0022] Furthermore, the fixing frame, bite rod, front fixing beam, rear fixing beam and submandibular fixing cone are all detachable metal parts.
[0023] The working method of the utility model comprises the following steps: adjusting the spacing of the fixing frames according to the body shape of the rat, then placing the rat's head between the fixing frames, occluding and fixing the rat's incisors on the bite rod, and placing the submandibular fixing cone against both sides of the rat's submandibular jaw, then rotating the front fixing beam so that the front arc rod is pressed above the front end of the rat's head, then tightening the front locking nut to fix the front rotating rod, then rotating the rear fixing beam so that the rear arc rod is pressed above the rear end of the rat's head, then tightening the rear locking nut to fix the rear rotating rod, and thus completing the rat's head fixing operation.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: The rat head surgical securing fixture provided by the present invention can accommodate rats of different sizes by providing adjustable spacing between fixed frames arranged at intervals on a fixed plate. A bite bar is provided at the front end of the fixed frame, allowing the rat's incisors to occlude and secure the bite bar, leaving the nasal breathing passage free. Rotatable front and rear fixing beams are also provided to secure the front and back of the rat's head, respectively. This provides excellent securing effect and a wide adjustment range, making it suitable for securing rats of different sizes without affecting the rat's inhalation of anesthetic gas. In summary, the present invention has the advantages of a novel structure, easy operation, and excellent securing effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
