Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of experimental equipment technology, specifically a fumigation device for rat airway inflammation experiments. Background Technology
[0002] In the smoke fumigation experiment for rat airway inflammation, a smoke chamber is required. Existing technology, patent document CN210470662U, discloses an experimental rat smoke fumigation device, including a chamber, a movable top cover, a smoke inlet valve, and an adjustable-speed fan. The top of the chamber is equipped with a sealing plate, and the movable top cover is connected above the sealing plate. A smoke inlet valve is located on the lower part of one side of the chamber, and slots are provided on the inner side of the chamber, with smoke diffusion plates installed between the slots. This utility model features a duckbill-style design for the smoke inlet valve, effectively reducing smoke loss and improving smoke utilization efficiency. Smoke diffuses through diffusion holes on the surface of the smoke diffusion plate, quickly and evenly entering the rat's activity chamber. The adjustable-speed fan then exhausts air outwards, creating a negative pressure environment inside the chamber, which improves smoke intake efficiency. The smoke intake speed can be adjusted by changing the speed of the adjustable-speed fan, thereby adjusting the smoke concentration inside the chamber. Furthermore, wire mesh installed on the inner and outer sides of the adjustable-speed fan ensures the safety of the rats and experimenters during the experiment.
[0003] In the experiment, multiple groups of rats are usually required for comparison. The existing fumigation device is too simple, making it inconvenient to store rats in groups and to handle them, which brings many inconveniences to the use and needs to be further improved. Utility Model Content

[0023] A smoke generator 3 is installed on the upper side of the fumigation chamber 1. The air outlet of the smoke generator 3 is connected to the inner cavity of the fumigation chamber 1. An exhaust connector 4 is fixedly installed on the side of the fumigation chamber 1. The exhaust connector 4 is connected to the smoke extraction pump through a pipe. Specifically, an installation window is opened on the upper surface of the fumigation chamber 1, and a snap-fit slide rail 9 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the installation window. The bottom of the smoke generator 3 is slidably snapped into the snap-fit slide rail 9, and the smoke generator 3 is closed at the installation window. The smoke generator 3 can be detached and lowered to facilitate cleaning and disinfection of the fumigation chamber 1.
[0024] The smoke chamber 1 contains a container 5, which is open at the top. Multiple partitions 6 are fixedly installed inside the container 5, which divide the inner cavity of the container 5 into multiple chambers. Several ventilation holes 7 are opened on both sides of the container 5. The smoke chamber 1, the door panel 2 and the container 5 are all made of transparent acrylic material.
[0025] Two first limiting strips 10 are fixedly installed on the inner bottom wall of the smoking chamber 1, and two second limiting strips 11 are fixedly installed on the inner side wall of the smoking chamber 1. The container 5 is slidably inserted in the area between the two first limiting strips 10 and the two second limiting strips 11.
