[0002] When examining, treating, or operating on animals, they may struggle, resist, or even attack the operator due to fear, pain, or discomfort. Restraint effectively restricts the animal's movement, preventing accidental injury and ensuring the safety of the operator. Simultaneously, restraint keeps the animal in a relatively stable state, allowing for more accurate examinations, treatments, or surgeries. For example, during blood draws, injections, or surgical procedures, restraint ensures the animal does not move or struggle suddenly, improving the accuracy and efficiency of the procedure.

[0003] Existing restraint devices, such as ropes and clamps, either cause discomfort to the animal or prolong the restraint process, increasing the risk of anesthesia. Furthermore, many restraint tools use metal parts, which may cause additional harm to the animal or affect test results (such as X-ray scans), especially in humid environments. Therefore, a safer, more comfortable, and more flexible restraint tool is needed. Utility Model Content

[0025] To better understand the technical content of this utility model, specific embodiments are provided below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the first aspect of this utility model proposes a restraint board for small non-human primates, including a board body 10 and a plurality of strap structures 30, wherein the board body 10 is provided with a plurality of perforated structures 22 for the strap structures 30 to pass through.

[0027] The perforated structure 22 has at least two holes, one through which the tape passes and the other through which it exits.

[0028] Thus, the strap structure 30 can pass through the perforated structure 22 and be fixed to the plate 10, forming a space for restraining the animal between the strap structure 30 and the plate 10, thereby achieving a restraining effect on the animal.

[0029] In an optional embodiment, the plate 10 is a rectangular plate. In particular, the plate 10 is made of a high-strength polymer material.

[0030] Optionally, the plate 10 may be made of polypropylene or polyester to ensure the strength and durability of the tool, prevent harm to animals, and enhance durability and water resistance.

[0031] Combination Figure 2 As shown, perforated structures 22 are provided at least in the first region, the second region and the third region of the plate 10, and in each region there are at least two perforated structures 22 arranged left and right with a predetermined spacing.

[0032] Taking the experimental monkey as an example, the first area corresponds to the head of the experimental monkey, the second area corresponds to the torso of the experimental monkey, and the third area corresponds to the legs of the experimental monkey.

[0033] Furthermore, the strap structure 30 includes a first strap 31 and a second strap 32, which are connected to each other, allowing for flexible control of the length of the entire strap structure 30.

[0034] Specifically, in each region, the first end of the first strap 31 is fixed to the left perforated structure 22, and the first end of the second strap 32 is fixed to the right perforated structure 22. The free ends of the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 can be connected to each other to form a closed profile together with the plate 10, thereby restraining the animal in the predetermined area of ​​the plate 10.

[0035] Furthermore, the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 include a strap body and a connecting structure, the connecting structure being connected to the surface of the strap body.

[0036] Preferably, the belt body is made of a flexible material. For example, it may be a woven belt body filled with a soft material such as sponge, or an integrated flexible material such as a silicone belt.

[0037] Optionally, the connection structure can be a Velcro structure, which can be connected to the surface of the belt by sewing or adhesive.

[0038] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, both the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 include a fixing area 301 and a connecting area 302.

[0039] In the fixed area 301, the first strap 31 or the second strap 32 can pass through the perforated structure 22 and self-connect to form a closed loop, so that the first strap 31 or the second strap 32 is fixed to the perforated structure 22.

[0040] Specifically, in the fixed area 301, the same side of the belt body is provided with a hook and loop fastener fastening surface 321 and a fastening needle surface 311.

[0041] Thus, the strap can pass through the two holes of the perforated structure 22, and then the fixed rough surface 321 and the fixed needle surface 311 are glued together to form a closed loop structure, at which point one end of the first strap 31 or the second strap 32 is fixed to the plate 10.

[0042] It should be understood that this fixing method can not only fix the end of the first strap 31 or the second strap 32 to the plate 10, but also fix thinner parts, such as the wrist or ankle of an experimental monkey. The wrist or ankle can be fixed to the top of the perforated structure 22 by directly using the fixing surface 321 and fixing needle surface 311 of the strap fixing area 301.

[0043] Furthermore, in the connecting area 302, the outer wall of the belt is provided with a connecting needle surface 322, and the inner wall of the belt is provided with a connecting rough surface 312.

[0044] For example Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the first strap 31 has a connecting rough surface 312 on the inner surface of the connecting area 302, and the second strap 32 has a connecting needle surface 322 on the outer surface of the connecting area 302. By connecting the connecting rough surface 312 and the connecting needle surface 322 to each other, the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 can form straps of different lengths to achieve restraint of the head, abdomen, waist and other parts of the body.

[0045] Understandably, the first strap 31 can be connected to the second strap 32 at any point in the connection area 302. Therefore, the length of the binding strap formed by the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 has a large adjustable range and can flexibly adapt to experimental monkeys or other experimental animals of different sizes.

[0046] Furthermore, the width of the connecting needle surface 322 is smaller than the width of the belt body, and the width of the connecting rough surface 312 is greater than the width of the connecting needle surface 322, and less than or equal to the width of the belt body.

[0047] Thus, by placing the connecting surface 312 on the inside of the belt body and making its width greater than that of the connecting needle surface 322, it is beneficial to ensure that the part of the belt body that comes into contact with the animal is made of soft material, thereby avoiding harm to the animal.

[0048] In the above embodiment, a socket 20 is detachably connected to the plate 10, and the socket 20 is provided with a through-hole structure 22.

[0049] The plate 10 is provided with a positioning hole 11, the inner wall of the positioning hole 11 is provided with a slot 12, and the outer wall of the insertion seat 20 is provided with an elastic claw 21. When the insertion seat 20 is inserted into the positioning hole 11, the elastic claw 21 engages with the slot 12.

[0050] In this way, the insertion socket 20 can be removed from the surface of the plate 10, and the strap can be inserted into the perforated structure 22, making the operation easier.

[0051] In a specific embodiment, taking the limb restraint of a small experimental monkey in Baoding as an example, combined with... Figure 2 As shown, a pair of first sockets 201, a pair of second sockets 202, a pair of third sockets 203 and a pair of fourth sockets 204 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom on the plate 10.

[0052] Among them, a first strap 31 and a second strap 32 are respectively provided on a pair of first insertion sockets 201. The fixing areas 301 of the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 are used to restrain the two thinner wrists, but not to fix the head.

[0053] A pair of second sockets 202 and a pair of third sockets 203 are respectively connected to a first strap 31 and a second strap 32, and the free ends of the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 are used to restrain the chest and abdomen of the experimental monkey.

[0054] A first strap 31 and a second strap 32 are respectively provided on a pair of fourth insertion sockets 204. The fixing area 301 of the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 is used to restrain the two thinner ankles.

[0055] In other embodiments, if it is necessary to restrain the head of the experimental monkey, a first strap 31 and a second strap 32 can be respectively provided on a pair of first sockets 201. One end of the first strap 31 and the second strap 32 can be fixed to the first socket 201 through the fixing area 301, and the head of the experimental monkey can be fixed by connecting the free ends together.

[0056] In conjunction with the above embodiments, the restraint device proposed by this utility model is free of metal materials, the strap structure and plate are simple and convenient to connect, and the length between the two straps is flexible, which makes it more adaptable to different animals. It can achieve rapid adjustment and fixation during restraint, and will not cause pressure on the trunk or limbs. It can meet the needs of laboratory animals in medical treatment, examination or transportation, and has the advantages of safety and comfort.

[0057] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this invention shall be determined by the claims.
