[0026] In order to further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined purpose of the utility model, the following is a detailed description of the specific implementation method, structure, characteristics and effects of the present invention in combination with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0027] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the purpose of this embodiment is to provide a radiation protection device with a fixed structure for animal imaging, including a main body 1. A plurality of pulleys are installed at the bottom of the main body 1 to facilitate the movement and transfer of the device. The main body 1 includes an operating cabin 2, and a transfer cabin 3 is provided on one side of the operating cabin 2. The experimental animals are transferred from the transfer cabin 3 to the operating cabin 2 to reduce air contact and thus reduce experimental errors. A sterilization part 4 is also provided inside the operating cabin 2, and the sterilization part 4 uses an ultraviolet disinfection lamp installed inside the operating cabin 2.

[0028] The operating cabin 2 is provided with a body position fixer 21 for fixing the experimental animal. The body position fixer 21 includes two sets of identical fixers 211. A fixing groove 213 is provided at the bottom of the operating cabin 2.

[0029] The holder 211 includes two staggered fixed dividers 2110 , which are slidably installed in the fixing slots 213 to adjust the spacing.

[0030] The fixed divider 2110 includes a fixed plate 2111. The fixed divider 2110 is slidably mounted in the fixed plate 2111 to adjust the height to fix animals of different body shapes. The fixed plate 2111 is provided with a groove 2112.

[0031] The fixed divider 2110 further includes an arc-shaped latch 2114 , which is disposed at one end of the fixed plate 2111 ;

[0032] A first limiting block 2116 is fixedly provided at one end of the arc-shaped locking position 2114 , and the first limiting block 2116 is slidably engaged in the groove 2112 .

[0033] A screw hole is provided through the first limit block 2116, a screw 2113 is installed in the screw hole, and a screw fixing hole is provided at the bottom of the groove 2112. One end of the screw 2113 passes through the screw hole and is rotatably connected to the screw fixing hole through a bearing. The length of the screw 2113 is greater than the height of the groove 2112, and its top end extends out of the groove 2112, so that the screw 2113 is convenient to manually rotate.

[0034] The arc-shaped clamping position 2114 is slidably installed in the fixing plate 2111 to adjust the height to fix animals of different body shapes.

[0035] A second limit block 2117 is fixedly connected to the bottom side wall of the fixing plate 2111, and a through hole is opened in the second limit block 2117, and a screw 212 is threadedly installed in the through hole. A screw fixing hole is opened at the bottom of the fixing groove 213, and one end of the screw 212 passes through the through hole and is threadedly installed in the screw fixing hole.

[0036] This height-adjustable body position fixator 21 can be precisely adjusted in height and angle according to the different species, body sizes, and experimental or treatment needs of animals. This personalized adjustment ensures that the fixator fits the animal's body shape perfectly, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of the experiment or treatment. It also avoids the oppression or injury to the animal that may be caused by traditional fixators due to inappropriate size, thereby ensuring the health of the animal.

[0037] Among them, an airbag 2115 is fixedly provided on the lower surface of the arc-shaped clamping position 2114. The airbag 2115 is an adjustable structure that fits the body shape of the experimental animal. The airbag 2115 has softness and adjustability, so that the position fixer 21 can better adapt to the body shape and curves of the animal, reducing the discomfort of the animal caused by rigid support. By adjusting the inflation amount of the airbag 2115, the pressure on the animal's body can be dispersed, and the generation of pressure points can be reduced, thereby protecting the animal's skin and soft tissue.

[0038] The body position fixer 21 is set at the center of the operating cabin 2, and a rubber pad is set at the bottom of the operating cabin 2 to place the animal. The rubber pad can reduce the noise generated by mechanical operation or human activities inside the operating cabin to a certain extent, creating a more comfortable environment for operators and animals.

[0039] An escape passage 5 is also provided on one side of the device body 1 for animals to escape in an emergency. The escape passage 5 is provided on one side of the operating cabin 2. An escape door is provided on the side wall of the operating cabin 2. A handle is provided on the escape door for opening the escape door from the outside of the device. When an emergency occurs, food bait is provided at the exit of the escape passage 5 to guide the animal to move to the escape passage 5. Providing an escape passage 5 for the animal can reduce experimental losses and enhance the operator's confidence in the equipment. The bottom of the escape passage 5 is a triangular structure with stable support to prevent the animal from accidentally falling when escaping.

[0040] When the present invention is used in practice, the animal is placed in the transfer cabin 3, and the animal is transferred to the operating cabin 2 through the transfer door. The animal is placed on the rubber pad, and the fixed divider 2110 is slid in the fixing groove 213. The spacing at the intersection of the two fixed dividers 2110 is adjusted appropriately, and then one end of the screw 212 is passed through the through hole and threadedly installed in the screw fixing hole to fix the fixed divider 2110. After the spacing is adjusted appropriately, the screw 2113 is rotated. Since the screw 2113 and the first limit block 2116 are threadedly connected, the first limit block 2116 will move linearly while the screw 2113 is rotated, so that the height of the arc-shaped position 2114 can be adjusted. After adjusting to the appropriate height, the experimental animal is fixed therein, and then the experimental operation is carried out. When an emergency occurs, the body position fixator 21 is immediately opened, and the escape door is opened from the outside of the device to guide the animal to escape from the device through the escape passage 5.

[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention in any form. Although the present invention has been disclosed as a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make some changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments using the technical contents disclosed above without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. However, any brief modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
