Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a locking system for a veterinary capture and transport device, belonging to the field of animal capture technology. Background Technology

[0002] When providing medical services to pets, veterinarians often need to capture the animals and transport them to the veterinary hospital. Currently, most of these animals are reptiles, primarily cats and dogs. Existing capture devices typically use food boxes as bait to lure the animals into the capture box, and then the box door is manually closed to prevent the animals from escaping.

[0003] A Chinese utility model patent with publication number CN217609194U discloses a veterinary pet capture and restraint device. The structure includes a balancing component inside the capture cage body, comprising a rotatable support plate. A limit frame is located on one end of the support plate. A guide roller is located in the middle of the end face of the capture cage body. A rotatable rotating door is located on the side of the capture cage body, used to open or close the capture cage body. A pull rope is fixedly connected to the middle of the end face of the rotating door, with the other end of the pull rope passing over the surface of the roller and fitted onto the end of the limit frame. Symmetrical locking components are located on the side of the capture cage body, including a slidable slider. A square plate is also located on the side of the capture cage body to restrict the slider's movement. The rotating door rotates and pushes open the square plate, allowing the slider to slide out and fixing the rotating door in position. The purpose of this design is to utilize a trigger mechanism when the pet eats to close the capture cage body, thus capturing and restraining the pet.

[0004] In the process of realizing the technical solution of this application, the inventors discovered that the prior art has at least the following technical problems:

[0005] Regardless of whether it's the first type of manually closed enclosure door, approaching it can easily alert the animal, leading to a failed capture. While a revolving door with a rope-operated capture mechanism is fixed in the middle, in actual use, if the revolving door is opened too wide, its rotation path becomes too long, preventing it from locking properly during descent and allowing the animal to escape. Conversely, if the revolving door is opened too narrowly, the capture effect is reduced, making it difficult for the animal to enter. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a locking system for veterinary capture and transportation devices that drops directly, greatly reducing the length of the closing path.

[0007] The locking system for a veterinary capture and transport device described in this utility model includes a door panel with a receiving cavity inside. A locking mechanism that can be unfolded downwards to replace the door panel is installed in the receiving cavity, and the locking mechanism can be pressed into the door panel after being retracted.

[0008] The locking mechanism includes several horizontally arranged crossbars, with connecting ropes fixed between the crossbars in sequence;

[0009] The crossbars are arranged and installed into the receiving cavity;

[0010] A suction mechanism is installed at the bottom of the door panel to work in conjunction with the locking mechanism.

[0011] Furthermore, the uppermost bar in the crossbar includes at least one mounting surface.

[0012] Furthermore, the cross-section of the uppermost bar in the crossbar is set as a square or rectangle.

[0013] Furthermore, the spacing between the crossbars should not exceed 20mm.

[0014] Furthermore, the cross-section of the lowest bar in the crossbar is set as a square or rectangular shape.

[0015] Furthermore, the adsorption mechanism includes at least one electromagnet, which is installed below the door panel.

[0016] Furthermore, the adsorption mechanism also includes a housing for placing the electromagnet, with the bottom surface of the housing flush with the lower end surface of the door panel.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] This invention uses a horizontal bar with a connecting rope to directly block animals and prevent them from escaping. Lowering the bar directly from the top provides the shortest closing path and effectively avoids an excessively long closing path. Attached Figure Description

[0029] Example 1

[0030] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the locking system for a veterinary capture and transport device of the present invention includes a door panel 3, a receiving cavity 31 is provided in the door panel 3, and a locking mechanism 8 that can be unfolded downward to replace the door panel 3 is installed in the receiving cavity 31. The locking mechanism 8 can be pressed into the door panel 3 after it is retracted.

[0031] The locking mechanism 8 includes several horizontally arranged crossbars 81, and connecting ropes 82 are fixed between the crossbars 81 in sequence.

[0032] The crossbars 81 are arranged and installed inside the receiving cavity 31;

[0033] A suction mechanism 4 is installed below the door panel 3 to work with the locking mechanism 8.

[0034] The uppermost bar in the crossbar 81 includes at least one mounting surface 811 with threaded holes, which are used for mounting with screws through the through holes at the upper end of the door panel 3.

[0035] The topmost bar in crossbar 81 has a square or rectangular cross-section for easy installation.

[0036] The spacing between the horizontal bars 81 should not exceed 20mm to avoid the animals escaping due to excessive spacing.

[0037] The cross-section of the lowest part of the crossbar 81 is square or rectangular to facilitate the attraction of the adsorption mechanism 4.

[0038] The adsorption mechanism 4 includes at least one electromagnet, which is installed below the door panel 3.

[0039] The adsorption mechanism 4 also includes a housing for placing the electromagnet, with the bottom surface of the housing flush with the lower end surface of the door panel 3.

[0040] Working process or working principle:

[0041] Once an animal enters, the suction mechanism 4 is de-energized, and the crossbar 81 automatically falls under its own weight. The sliding groove installed on the door panel 3 blocks both ends of the crossbar 81, thus completing the capture.

[0042] The veterinary capture and transport device described in this utility model is as follows:

[0043] Including a three-dimensional skeleton 1,

[0044] The upper end of the skeleton 1 is hinged to a flip-up cover 2; the cover 2 is flip-up to facilitate removal after the animal is anesthetized.

[0045] A base plate 6 is installed at the lower end of the frame 1;

[0046] A door panel 3 that can slide up and down is installed on one side of the frame 1; vertical panels 7 are installed on the other three sides of the frame 1 corresponding to the door panel 3.

[0047] The door panel 3 is equipped with a locking mechanism 8 that can be unfolded downwards to replace the door panel 3, and the locking mechanism 8 can be pressed into the door panel 3 after it is retracted.

[0048] A suction mechanism 4 is installed below the door panel 3 to work with the locking mechanism 8; the door panel 3 uses the locking mechanism 8 and the suction mechanism 4 to prevent animals from escaping from the door panel.

[0049] A sensing mechanism 5 is installed on the base plate 6 and is used in conjunction with the adsorption mechanism 4. The sensing mechanism 5 on the base plate 6 can automatically sense whether the animal is on the base plate 6, thereby improving the capture success rate. The sensing mechanism 5 can be set as a pressure sensor. When pressure is sensed, the electromagnet is de-energized and the crossbar 81 slides out.

[0050] The locking mechanism 8 includes several horizontally arranged crossbars 81, and connecting ropes 82 are fixed between the crossbars 81 in sequence; the connecting ropes 82 are soft ropes.

[0051] The crossbars 81 are arranged and placed inside the door panel 3. At this time, the adsorption mechanism 4 adsorbs the crossbars 81 to prevent them from sliding out of the door panel 3.

[0052] The adsorption mechanism 4 includes at least one electromagnet, which is installed below the door panel 3.

[0053] The adsorption mechanism 4 also includes a housing for placing the electromagnet, with the bottom surface of the housing flush with the lower end surface of the door panel 3.

[0054] The upper part of the frame 1 is equipped with a switch 11 for locking the cover 2. The cover 2 is equipped with a groove 21 that works with the switch 11. The switch 11 is a cylindrical wheel that is hinged to the frame 1. The cylindrical wheel has a notch. When it is rotated, the notch slides out of the groove 21, and the cover 2 can be flipped open. When the notch is rotated to one side, the cylindrical wheel rotates into the groove 21, and the cover 2 is locked and cannot be opened.

[0055] The vertical panel 7 is a transparent panel made of transparent acrylic sheet. Other transparent materials should also be included in this application. The vertical panel 7 is made of transparent sheet to facilitate observation of the animal's condition.

[0056] Working process or working principle:

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, when using it, simply pull up door panel 3 and place it in the space where you want to capture it;

[0058] like Figure 2 As shown, when an animal enters, the sensing mechanism 5 senses the animal's entry, the electromagnet in the adsorption mechanism 4 is de-energized, and the crossbar 81 is lowered.

[0059] like Figure 3 As shown, when door panel 3 is pressed down, locking mechanism 8 retracts into door panel, and electromagnet is attracted.

[0060] Example 2

[0061] Unlike Example 1:

[0062] like Figure 8 As shown, the vertical plate 7 may be provided with an external anesthesia hole 71 for anesthesia.

[0063] The descriptions of the orientation and relative positional relationships of the structure in this utility model, such as descriptions of front, back, left, right, up, and down, do not constitute a limitation on this utility model, but are merely for the convenience of description.
