Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal experiments, and in particular to a quickly assembled feeding cage. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of animal testing, the use of rearing cages is extremely common. As related research and breeding scales continue to expand, the requirements for the assembly efficiency, flexibility, and stability of rearing cages are gradually increasing.

[0003] Traditional animal husbandry cages have several structural design shortcomings. Their track installation often relies on complex connection methods, requiring numerous bolts and nuts to secure the various track components to the frame. This installation process is not only time-consuming but also requires specialized tools, increasing labor costs. Furthermore, traditional cages lack convenience in their cage-to-frame connection; cages are typically simply placed on the frame without effective locking or restraint devices. During daily use, cages are prone to slipping or shifting due to collisions, vibrations, or other unexpected events. This not only harms the animals but also disrupts the experimental layout and process, hindering classification, monitoring, and management. In comparative experiments, strict differentiation and observation of animals in different experimental groups are crucial. Frequent cage displacement leads to data confusion and errors, reducing experimental efficiency and reliability.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new, quickly assembled breeding cage to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a quickly assembled feeding cage frame.

[0006] This utility model provides a quickly assembled feeding cage frame, comprising: a base, on which multiple frame bodies are fixedly connected, and multiple track assemblies are installed and connected between the multiple frame bodies, each track assembly consisting of a main track and a secondary track; a quick assembly mechanism, comprising two insertion tubes, each of which is fixedly connected to both ends of the main track, and each of the two ends of the secondary track is fixedly connected to a plug, the two plugs being slidably connected to the two insertion tubes respectively, and a locking assembly being provided between the main track and the secondary track.

[0007] Preferably, each of the multiple frames is provided with multiple positioning ports, and the multiple insertion tubes are slidably connected to the multiple positioning ports respectively.

[0008] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a locking block, which is fixedly connected to the middle position of the secondary rail. A locking port is provided at the middle position of the main rail. The locking block is slidably connected to the locking port. Mounting grooves are provided on the inner walls at both ends of the locking port, and an internal tube is installed and connected in each of the two mounting grooves.

[0009] Preferably, the two side walls of the locking block are provided with racks, and the locking teeth of the two racks are designed with unidirectional inclined surfaces. The inside of the built-in tube is slidably connected to a stop rod. One end of the stop rod is connected to a wedge head, a spring is sleeved on the stop rod, and the other end of the stop rod is fixedly connected to a lever plate.

[0010] Preferably, the abutment is provided with a disc, one end of the spring is connected to the disc, and the other end of the spring is connected to the inner wall of the built-in tube.

[0011] Preferably, each of the two mounting slots has a through slot on its upper side wall, and one end of each of the two levers is respectively located in one of the two through slots.

[0012] Preferably, a back plate is fixedly connected to one end of both the main rail and the auxiliary rail, and a groove is provided at the other end of both the main rail and the auxiliary rail. A pin is installed in each of the two grooves, a blocking strip is provided on each of the two pins, and a torsion spring is provided between each of the two pins and the two grooves.

[0013] Compared with related technologies, the quick-assembly feeding cage frame provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This utility model, through a unique main rail and auxiliary rail connection design, connects the tubes at both ends of the main rail with the positioning port of the frame, inserts the auxiliary rail plug into the main rail tube, and utilizes an automatic locking mechanism composed of a locking block, a locking port, a wedge head, a stop bar, and a spring to achieve rapid and stable combination and positioning of the main rail and auxiliary rail on the frame. This not only greatly simplifies the assembly process of the breeding cage frame and reduces the time and labor costs required for assembly, but also ensures a tight and firm connection, effectively guaranteeing the structural stability of the entire breeding cage frame during use and providing a safe and reliable breeding space for laboratory animals.

[0015] 2. This utility model, through the cooperation of components such as blocking bars, pins, and torsion springs, can automatically trigger the rotation and reset action of the blocking bars when the cage slides into the track assembly, thereby conveniently completing the blocking and limiting of the cage. This makes the installation and disassembly of the cage on the frame extremely convenient. The number and layout of the cages can be quickly adjusted according to experimental needs, realizing the flexible assembly and placement of experimental cage groups. This facilitates the classification, monitoring, and management of animals of different species or at different experimental stages during the experiment, helps to improve the convenience of experimental operation and the precision of experimental research, and improves the efficiency and scientific nature of experimental animal management.

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 A quick-assembly feeding cage includes: a base 1, on which multiple frame bodies 2 are fixedly connected, and multiple track assemblies 3 are installed and connected between the multiple frame bodies 2, each track assembly 3 being composed of a main track 31 and a secondary track 32; a quick-assembly mechanism, which includes two insertion tubes 4, which are fixedly connected to both ends of the main track 31, and both ends of the secondary track 32 are fixedly connected to plugs 41, with the two plugs 41 slidably connected to the two insertion tubes 4 respectively, and a locking assembly is provided between the main track 31 and the secondary track 32.

[0023] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, multiple frames 2 are provided with multiple positioning ports, and multiple insertion tubes 4 are slidably connected to multiple positioning ports respectively.

[0024] It should be noted that by inserting the tubes 4 at both ends of the main rail 31 into the positioning ports, and simultaneously sliding the two plugs 41 at both ends of the secondary rail 32 into the two tubes 4, the main rail 31 and the secondary rail 32 can be combined and positioned on the frame 2, which greatly simplifies the assembly process of the feeding cage, reduces the time and labor costs required for assembly, and ensures a tight and secure connection.

[0025] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the locking assembly includes a locking block 42, which is fixedly connected to the middle position of the secondary rail 32. A locking port 43 is provided at the middle position of the main rail 31. The locking block 42 and the locking port 43 are slidably connected. Both ends of the inner wall of the locking port 43 are provided with mounting grooves, and an internal tube 5 is installed and connected in both mounting grooves.

[0026] It should be noted that the locking block 42 slides into the locking slot 43 at the middle position of the main rail 31, so that the main rail 31 and the auxiliary rail 32 automatically lock together.

[0027] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, racks are provided on both sides of the block 42. The teeth of the two racks are designed with a one-way inclined surface. A stop rod 51 is slidably connected inside the built-in tube 5. A wedge head 52 is installed and connected to one end of the stop rod 51. A spring 53 is sleeved on the stop rod 51. A lever plate 54 is fixedly connected to the other end of the stop rod 51.

[0028] It should be noted that when the racks on both sides of the locking block 42 move to abut against the inclined surfaces of the two wedge heads 52, the two wedge heads 52 drive the two push rods 51 to slide and retract relative to the inner tube 5, and the two springs 53 undergo elastic deformation.

[0029] When the two racks move to the inclined planes of the two wedge heads 52 and are misaligned, the two springs 53 restore their elastic deformation, causing the two push rods 51 to drive the two wedge heads 52 to slide and reset.

[0030] refer to Figure 1 As shown, a disc is provided on the abutment 51, one end of the spring 53 is connected to the disc, and the other end of the spring 53 is connected to the inner wall of the built-in tube 5.

[0031] It should be noted that two discs are used to limit the movement of the two stop rods 51.

[0032] refer to Figure 2 As shown, each of the two mounting slots has a through slot 6 on its upper side wall, and one end of each of the two levers 54 is located in one of the two through slots 6.

[0033] It should be noted that one end of each of the two levers 54 is located in one of the two through slots 6, ensuring that the levers 54 can be easily and quickly moved by the experimenter without affecting the sliding placement of the cage. When it is necessary to release the lock between the main rail 31 and the auxiliary rail 32, the experimenter can move the levers 54 to drive the abutment 51 to slide within the internal tube 5, causing the wedge head 52 at one end of the abutment 51 to disengage from the teeth of the racks on both sides of the locking block 42, thereby releasing the lock on the locking block 42. Conversely, when it is necessary to relock, if the locking block 42 and the wedge head 52 are not aligned during the insertion of the locking block 42 into the locking slot 43, the positions of the abutment 51 and the wedge head 52 can be adjusted by moving the levers 54, so that the locking block 42 can be smoothly inserted into the locking slot 43 and achieve automatic locking.

[0034] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a back plate 7 is fixedly installed at one end of the main rail 31 and the auxiliary rail 32. A groove is provided at the other end of the main rail 31 and the auxiliary rail 32. A pin 8 is installed in each of the two grooves. A blocking strip 81 is provided on each of the two pins 8. A torsion spring 82 is provided between each of the two pins 8 and the two grooves.

[0035] It should be noted that: when the cage is placed between four symmetrical track components 3 and slid in, the lower end of the cage presses against two blocking bars 81, one end of the two blocking bars 81 rotates relative to the pivot point of the two pins 8, and both torsion springs 82 undergo elastic deformation.

[0036] Once the cage has slid in completely, until one end of the cage abuts against the two back plates 7, the two back plates 7 will block and limit the cage.

[0037] Both torsion springs 82 restore their elastic deformation, causing one end of the two blocking strips 81 to rotate and tilt upwards. The blocking strips 81 are used to block and limit the cage body, thus quickly completing the locking and placement between the cage body and the frame 2. This allows for the rapid assembly and placement of the experimental cage group, facilitating classification and monitoring during the experiment.

[0038] The working principle of the quick-assembly feeding cage frame provided by this utility model is as follows: The main rail 31 and the auxiliary rail 32 are brought close to the preset position on the frame body 2, so that the insertion tubes 4 at both ends of the main rail 31 are respectively inserted into the positioning port, and at the same time, the two plugs 41 at both ends of the auxiliary rail 32 are respectively slid into the two insertion tubes 4, so that the main rail 31 and the auxiliary rail 32 can be combined and positioned on the frame body 2. At the same time, the locking block 42 is slid into the locking port 43 at the middle position of the main rail 31. When the racks on both sides of the locking block 42 move to the inclined surface of the two wedge heads 52 and abut against each other, the two wedge heads 52 drive the two abutting rods 51 to slide back relative to the inner tube 5, and the two springs 53 undergo elastic deformation. When the two racks move to the inclined surface of the two wedge heads 52 and are misaligned, the two springs 53 restore their elastic deformation, so that the two abutting rods 51 drive the two wedge heads 52 to slide back to their original position, thus realizing the automatic locking of the locking block 42.

[0039] The cage is placed between four symmetrical track components 3 and slid in, so that the lower end of the cage presses against two blocking bars 81. One end of the two blocking bars 81 rotates relative to the pivot point of the two pins 8, and both torsion springs 82 undergo elastic deformation. When the cage is fully slid in, until one end of the cage abuts against the two back plates 7, the two torsion springs 82 restore their elastic deformation, causing one end of the two blocking bars 81 to rotate and tilt upwards. The blocking bars 81 are used to complete the blocking and limiting of the cage, so as to quickly complete the locking and placement between the cage and the frame 2, and quickly complete the assembly and placement of the experimental cage group, which is convenient for classification and monitoring in the experiment.

Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
