Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of massage intervention and behavioral testing equipment, and in particular to an integrated operating box for massage intervention and behavioral testing. Background Technology

[0002] Massage is a discipline that utilizes manual techniques to achieve therapeutic effects, its most prominent characteristic being the need for physical contact with the treatment area. Visceral massage is an important component of massage, primarily exerting its therapeutic effects through manual manipulation on the abdomen. When conducting abdominal massage experiments on rodents, most must be performed while the rodents are awake. Maintaining a calm and conscious state in awake rodents is crucial for the accuracy and reliability of experimental data. Existing rat restraint devices suitable for manual manipulation generally only include restraint structures to bind the rats' limbs, or use cylindrical structures. During the manipulation, rats can easily break free and escape from these restraint structures. Such open restraint structures are ineffective in preventing rat escape and also hinder the control of ambient light levels. Excessive light can increase rat anxiety, thus interfering with the experimental data. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention provides an integrated operating box for massage intervention and behavioral testing, which helps to solve the problem that some current fixation devices, due to their open structure, cannot effectively prevent rats from escaping, nor can they effectively control the light intensity of the experimental environment.

[0004] This utility model is implemented as follows:

[0005] An integrated operation box for massage intervention and behavioral testing includes a hollow box body with height-adjustable support legs at the bottom. At least two operation holes for the palm and forearm to enter the box are located on the side wall of the box body. A sealing element is provided inside each operation hole, extending into a conical structure. The sealing element has an inner opening and an outer opening on its inner and outer sides, respectively. The outer opening is larger than the inner opening and is circumferentially connected and fixed to the operation hole. Inside the box body is a shelf with a restraint platform for rats. The restraint platform has a first restraint strap and a second restraint strap for securing the rat's limbs. The shelf is a perforated panel structure. Below the shelf, a drawer is located in the box body. The outer end of the drawer forms an opening on the outer wall of the box body. A detachable storage box for collecting rat excrement is located inside the drawer. A lighting lamp and a camera module are located on the inner side of the box body above the restraint platform. At least the front of the box body has an observation area for observing the internal situation.

[0006] Based on the above technical solution, a detachable connection structure is provided between the support leg and the box body.

[0007] Based on the above technical solution, the box is made of transparent material, and the outer side wall of the box is provided with a slot, in which an opaque insert plate can be detachably inserted.

[0008] Based on the above technical solution, the sealing element is made of elastic material, with a sealing plate in the inner cut and a slit in the middle of the sealing plate.

[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the restraint platform includes a base plate, the bottom of which is connected to the top of the shelf. The base plate is provided with an upwardly raised support plate. The two ends of the first restraint strap are fixed to the support plate, and the second restraint strap is provided on both sides of the support plate.

[0010] Based on the above technical solution, the first restraint belt is provided with a snap-fit ​​buckle.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution, the second restraint strap is made of an elastic band, and both ends of the elastic band are connected and fixed to the top surface of the base.

[0012] Based on the above technical solution, the second restraint belt is made of an elastic band. One end of the elastic band is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base, and the other end is provided with a buckle. The top surface of the base is provided with a hook that matches the buckle. The buckle can be hooked onto the hook to form a limb restraint structure.

[0013] Based on the above technical solution, the side wall of the sealing element is provided with several ribs, and the longitudinal profile of the ribs is a "T" shaped structure.

[0014] Based on the above technical solution, the storage box has an opening at the top, and a filter screen with a high center and low perimeter is provided at the opening. The filter screen is spaced apart from the bottom of the storage box.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0016] This invention features a box-like structure inside which a restraint platform for the rat is placed. This box acts as an outer structure to prevent the rat from escaping, which is more effective than traditional open structures. Furthermore, by installing a light inside the box, the brightness can be adjusted as needed during the experiment, providing the rat with a suitable ambient light. This helps reduce the rat's anxiety and makes its behavior or responses during the experiment more scientific and accurate. This structure also allows for effective control of the light intensity in the experimental environment. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely to represent selected embodiments of this utility model.

[0028] In the description of this utility model, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0029] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0030] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] Example 1: Combination Figure 1-3 This embodiment discloses an integrated operating box for massage intervention and behavioral testing, which aims to solve the problems in the prior art where the open structure of the fixation device makes it easy for rats to escape and the light brightness of the experimental environment cannot be effectively controlled. This provides a stable and controllable experimental environment for massage intervention experiments and improves the accuracy and authenticity of experimental data.

[0032] In this embodiment, the operating box specifically includes a rectangular hollow box body 100, which serves as a structure to prevent rats from escaping. The bottom of the box body 100 is equipped with height-adjustable support legs 200, which are specifically made of telescopic rods, allowing the height of the box body 100 to be controlled according to actual needs. It should be noted that the top of the support legs 200 is connected to the bottom of the box body 100 via a snap-fit ​​structure, allowing for easy assembly and disassembly of the support legs 200. This enables the box body 100 to be placed independently on an external table, improving its adaptability to different environments.

[0033] The enclosure 100 is made of transparent material (acrylic) on all four sides, combined with Figure 8 As shown, the outer side wall of the box 100 is provided with a slot 120, the slot opening of the slot 120 is located at the top, and an opaque insert plate 150 can be detachably inserted into the slot 120. After the insert plate 150 is inserted, it can ensure that the inner cavity of the box 100 is not affected by external ambient light.

[0034] The side wall of the box 100 is provided with at least two operation holes 110 for the palm and forearm to pass through the box 100. In this embodiment, the box 100 is provided with one operation hole 110 on each of the left and right sides. The operation hole 110 is a through hole structure and the operation hole 110 passes through the side wall of the box 100 laterally.

[0035] The inner side of the operating hole 110 is provided with a sealing element 300. The main function of the sealing element 300 is to provide a flexible seal for the operating hole 110, which helps to prevent the rat from escaping.

[0036] It should be noted that the adapter plates 150 on the left and right sides are provided with corresponding opening structures for the operation holes 110 to ensure the normal use of the operation holes 110.

[0037] Specifically, in combination Figure 5 As shown, the seal 300 is made of an elastic material (rubber) and has a conical structure in its extended state. The inner and outer sides of the seal 300 are an inner opening 320 and an outer opening 310, respectively. The outline of the outer opening 310 is larger than that of the inner opening 320, and the outer opening 310 is circumferentially connected and fixed to the operating hole 110. This structure, with a small inner hole and a large outer hole, facilitates the insertion of an arm from the outside and also helps to prevent the rat from easily escaping from the inner hole.

[0038] Furthermore, to enhance the sealing effect, the inner incision is equipped with two thin-film sealing pieces 330. The sealing pieces 330 are semi-circular in structure and have a slit in the middle. That is, the two sealing pieces 330 form a linear slit on adjacent sides, which can greatly improve the sealing effect of preventing rats from escaping from the inside without affecting the insertion of the arm.

[0039] Combination Figure 2As shown, the box 100 is equipped with a shelf 140 inside. The shelf 140 is horizontally arranged and its outer end is connected to the inner side wall of the box 100. The shelf 140 has a hollow panel structure. The box 100 is equipped with a drawer 130 below the shelf 140. The outer end of the drawer 130 forms an opening structure on the outer side wall of the box 100. A storage box 400 for collecting rat excrement is detachably installed inside the drawer 130. Specifically, the storage box 400 has an opening at the top, and a filter 410 with a high center and low perimeter is provided at the opening. The filter 410 is spaced apart from the bottom of the storage box 400. The function of the filter 410 is to separate and collect the fecal particles excreted in the rat experiment. The high center and low perimeter structure allows the fecal particles to quickly slide to the perimeter of the filter 410, preventing them from accumulating in the central area and reducing subsequent contact with urine. The urine excreted in the rat experiment is directly discharged to the bottom of the storage box 400.

[0040] The shelf 140 is equipped with a restraint platform 700 for restraining rats, combined with Figure 3 As shown, the restraint platform 700 is equipped with a first restraint strap 730 for fixing the rat's limbs and a second restraint strap 740 for fixing the rat's four limbs. The restraint platform 700 includes a base plate 710, the bottom of which is connected to the top of the shelf 140. The base plate 710 has an upwardly raised support plate 720, which elevates the rat's chest cavity, allowing the rat's limbs to fully extend and facilitating massage operations. The two ends of the first restraint strap 730 are fixed to the support plate 720, and the strap body of the first restraint strap 730 has snap-fit ​​buckles for easy assembly and disassembly to restrain the rat's limbs. The second restraint strap 740 is located on both sides of the support plate 720. The second restraint strap 740 is made of an elastic band 741, and the two ends of the elastic band 741 are connected and fixed to the top surface of the base.

[0041] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, an illumination lamp 500 and a camera module 600 are installed inside the enclosure 100 above the restraint platform 700. The brightness of the illumination lamp 500 can be flexibly adjusted as needed, and its adjustment button is located on the top of the enclosure 100 (not shown in the figure), used to provide suitable lighting conditions inside the enclosure 100. The camera module 600 includes a circuit board, a camera, a memory card, and other modules, used to record the rat massage experiment process. The illumination lamp 500 and the camera module 600 are electrically connected to external mains power via cables. The illumination lamp 500 and the camera module 600 are existing technologies, and their specific structures and working principles will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can select and implement them from existing technologies according to actual operating conditions.

[0042] The enclosure 100 has at least one observation area on its front side for observing the internal conditions. In this embodiment, since the enclosure 100 is made of transparent material inside the insert plate 150, the entire front side can serve as the observation area. In other embodiments, if the enclosure 100 is made entirely of opaque material, an observation window will be provided at a suitable location on the front side.

[0043] During the experiment, rats were placed into the inner cavity of the box through the operating hole. The rats were then fixed to the restraint table by inserting both hands into the inner cavity. The lighting was adjusted appropriately, and then targeted massage techniques were performed on the rats to achieve massage intervention and behavioral testing and observation. The process was recorded and archived.

[0044] Example 2: Based on Example 1, combined with Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the second restraint strap 740 is made of an elastic band 741. One end of the elastic band 741 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base, and the other end is provided with a buckle 742. The top surface of the base is provided with a hook 743 adapted to the buckle 742. The buckle 742 can be hooked onto the hook 743 to form a limb restraint structure. This structure further improves the ease of operation of the second restraint strap 740.

[0045] Example 3: Based on Example 1, combined with Figure 6 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, in order to improve the durability of the seal 300, a plurality of ribs 340 are provided on the side wall of the seal 300. The longitudinal profile of the ribs 340 is a "T" shaped structure, and the ribs 340 and the main body of the seal 300 are an integral structure.

[0046] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
