DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0022] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but it should be understood that the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific implementation.
[0023] refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, a food automatic monitoring mouse feeding box in an embodiment of the present invention includes a box body 1 and a box cover 2, a feeding bottle box 4 is fixedly connected to the box cover 2, specifically, a metering bin 406 is provided at the bottom of the feeding bottle box 4, a socket 101 is provided on the box body 1 to match the metering bin 406, an electronic scale 6 is provided in the metering bin 406, and one end of the electronic scale 6 passes through the socket 101, the breeder can withdraw the electronic scale 6 from the metering bin 406 through the socket 101, and at the same time, the electronic scale 6 can be directly inserted into the metering bin 406 through the socket 101, when the electronic scale 6 is fully inserted into the metering bin 406, the electronic scale display and buttons are located outside the box body 1, the electronic scale uses existing technology, and generally includes a scale plate, a display screen and various function buttons, and the breeder can operate the electronic scale buttons to complete the operation of switching, counting, clearing, and recording. The breeder can intuitively obtain the weight information of the feeding bottle through the electronic scale display 605 to facilitate observation and recording of the feeding status of the breeding mice.
[0024] refer to Figure 3 or Figure 5 As shown, a feeding bottle rack 5 is provided at the upper end of the electronic scale 6, and a nipple opening 502 is provided on the feeding bottle rack 5, and a feeding port 405 matching the nipple opening 502 is provided on the feeding bottle box 4. The breeder places the feeding bottle on the feeding bottle rack 5 so that the feeding bottle nipple passes through the nipple opening 502 and the feeding port 405 to reach the interior of the box body 1 to feed the feeding mice. The feeding bottle rack 5 does not contact the feeding bottle box 4, thereby avoiding inaccurate readings of the electronic scale caused by contact.
[0025] refer to Figure 4-Figure 5As shown, the electronic scale 6 is provided with a limit assembly, which is used to limit the position of the bottle rack 5. The bottle rack 5 is provided with a limit portion that matches the limit assembly. The limit assembly includes a first rib 601 and a second rib 602, and the limit portion includes a first contact portion 503 and a second contact portion 504. The first rib 601 and the second rib 602 are magnetically attracted to the upper end surface of the scale pan 604. When the electronic scale is completely placed inside the metering bin 406, the first contact portion 503 contacts the first rib 601, and the second contact portion 504 contacts the second rib 602. The first contact portion 503 and the second contact portion 504 are located between the first rib 601 and the second rib 602. At this time, the bottle rack 5 is limited by the first rib 601 and the second rib 602.
[0026] The cross-section of the first convex rib 601 and the second convex rib 602 is a triangular structure. While limiting the forward and backward displacement of the bottle rack 5, the first convex rib 601 and the second convex rib 602 can lift the arc surface at the lower end of the bottle rack 5 during the process of pumping and pushing and pulling the electronic scale 6, so that the bottle rack 5 can be separated from the first slot 401 and the lifting column 402 without manually picking up the bottle rack 5 during the process of pumping and pushing and pulling.
[0027] A pair of stoppers 603 are fixedly connected to the upper end surface of the electronic scale 6. The inner distance between the stoppers 603 matches the width of the bottle holder 5. Once the bottle holder 5 is positioned within the first contact portion 503 and the second contact portion 504, the bottle holder 5 is placed between the stoppers 603, further constraining the position of the bottle holder 5. This prevents the bottle holder 5 from shifting due to the pacifier shaking during feeding, which could cause inaccurate readings on the electronic scale. Furthermore, this ensures that the bottle holder 5 does not contact the bottle box 4, preventing inaccurate readings caused by contact.
[0028] refer to Figure 5 As shown, a first slot 401 is fixedly connected to the bottle box 4, and a second slot 501 is provided on the bottle rack 5 to match the first slot 401. When the electronic scale 6 is located inside the metering bin 406, the first slot 401 is located below the bottle rack 5, and the second slot 501 does not contact the first slot 401. A lifting column 402 is fixedly connected to the bottle box 4. When the electronic scale 6 is located inside the metering bin 406, the lifting column 402 is located below the bottle rack 5 and does not contact the bottle rack 5. When the electronic scale 6 is pulled out of the metering bin 406, the feeding bottle rack 5 falls. At this time, the first card slot 401 is stuck in the second card slot 501, and the lifting column 402 lifts up the feeding bottle rack 5 to prevent the feeding bottle rack 5 from falling. The feeding bottle rack 5 can still hold the feeding bottle after being pulled out of the electronic scale 6, and the nipple position still passes through the feeding port 405 and the nipple port 502. The rats can still be fed normally when the electronic scale is not in use or is pulled out of the electronic scale.
[0029] The bottle rack 5 is provided with a taking hole 505. When the bottle is spilled during use and the bottle rack 5 becomes dirty, the bottle rack 5 can be taken out and cleaned or replaced using the taking hole 505 without cleaning the entire box cover 2, thereby reducing the workload of the breeder.
[0030] refer to Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, the bottle rack 5 is provided with a nipple opening 502, which cooperates with the feeding opening 405. When the breeder places the bottle on the bottle rack 5, the nipple passes through the nipple opening 502 and the feeding opening 405, providing food for the feeding mice below. When the bottle nipple is placed in the nipple opening 502, the bottle body is placed in the center of the bottle rack 5. At this time, the center of gravity of the bottle is at the rear side of the bottle. The weight of the bottle presses down on the bottle rack 5. The weight is transferred to the first contact portion 503 and the second contact portion 504 through the bottle rack 5. The weight is then transferred to the scale pan 604, causing the display screen 605 of the electronic scale to produce a reading. The breeder can read the weight of the bottle through the display screen 605 on the electronic scale 6 outside the box body 1.
[0031] When using, refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, a feeding bottle is placed in the feeding bottle box 4, and the nipple passes through the nipple opening 502 and the feeding port 405. The feeding bottle is placed on the feeding bottle rack 5, and the weight of the feeding bottle is pressed down on the feeding bottle rack 5. The weight is transferred to the first contact portion 503 and the second contact portion 504 through the feeding bottle rack 5, and the weighing plate 604 is pressed down, causing the electronic scale display 605 to produce a reading. At this time, the display 605 is located outside the box body 1, and the breeder can operate the electronic scale buttons to complete the operations of turning on and off, counting, clearing, and recording. The breeder can intuitively obtain the feeding bottle weight information through the electronic scale display 605, so as to observe and record the feeding status, dietary status, and health status of the breeding mice. When the electronic scale 6 needs to be replaced, the electronic scale 6 can be withdrawn from the metering chamber 406 through the socket 101. The first and second ribs 601 and 602 lift the bottle holder 5 to separate the electronic scale 6 from the bottle holder 5. When the electronic scale 6 is fully withdrawn, the lifting column 402 and the first slot 401 support the fallen bottle holder 5, allowing the milk bottles to continue to be used normally without affecting the feeding of the mice. During the process of inserting the electronic scale 6 into the metering chamber 406 through the socket 101, the first and second ribs 601 and 602 lift the bottle holder 5 to separate the bottle box 4 from the bottle holder 5. When the electronic scale 6 is fully inserted into the metering chamber 406, the first and second contact portions 503 and 504 limit the bottle holder 5. At this time, the bottle holder 5 is placed between the pair of limit blocks 603, which can further limit the position of the bottle holder 5 and prevent inaccurate readings caused by contact between the bottle holder 5 and the bottle box 4. In addition, when the food in the feeding bottle is spilled, the feeding bottle rack 5 can be replaced in time using the taking hole 505 and the electronic scale 6 can be pulled out and replaced to avoid contamination caused by dirty food.
[0032] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the beneficial effect that the weight of the feeding bottle can be intuitively understood through the reading on the electronic scale display without taking out the feeding bottle, so that the breeder does not need to take out the feeding bottles one by one and weigh them one by one, thereby reducing the workload.
