Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of animal housing equipment technology, and in particular to a cage operation door with an observation window and feeding function. Background Technology

[0002] In zoos or wildlife breeding facilities, the care and management of rare animals such as giant pandas places special demands on cage design. Traditional cage doors typically only have simple opening and closing functions and lack integrated observation and feeding designs. This forces keepers to frequently open the cage doors when feeding, cleaning, or observing the animals, which not only increases operational risks but may also interfere with animal behavior and affect animal welfare.

[0003] In existing technologies, some cages use fixed observation windows or independent feeding ports, which are separated from the operation doors, resulting in complex structures and space occupation; lacking safety protection measures, animals may take the opportunity to escape or injure people.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cage door structure that integrates observation, feeding, and safe operation functions to simplify the feeding process, reduce the risk of human-animal contact, and improve animal welfare. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model mainly solves the technical problems of existing animal cages using fixed observation windows or independent feeding ports, with the observation window, feeding port and operation door being separate, resulting in complex structure and large space occupation. It proposes a cage operation door with observation window and feeding function, which has a compact structure and saves space. It integrates the observation window, feeding port and safety operation mechanism into the same door body, reducing space occupation and improving the safety of animal breeding.

[0006] This utility model provides a cage operation door with an observation window and feeding function, including a stainless steel door;

[0007] The stainless steel door has an observation opening and a feeding opening respectively;

[0008] An inspection window is provided on the inspection port; the inspection window includes a stainless steel frame and multiple stainless steel rods; the stainless steel frame is installed in the inspection port; the multiple stainless steel rods are arranged alternately in the stainless steel frame.

[0009] A feeding door is hinged to the outside of the feeding port; a stainless steel tray is hinged to the inside of the feeding port; the stainless steel tray opens inward and is horizontal when fully opened.

[0029] The cage operation door with observation window and feeding function provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0030] 1. This utility model optimizes the door layout and functional modules, resulting in a compact and space-saving structure. It integrates the viewing window, feeding port, and safety operating mechanism into a single door, optimizing cage space layout, saving operating space, reducing redundant structures, and streamlining the operation process. It offers multiple functions including observation and feeding, making it suitable for panda cages and applicable to indoor spaces or situations with limited space. Both the viewing window and feeding door utilize a double-layered structure; this integrated design avoids the redundant layout of traditional multi-component systems (independent viewing windows, feeding ports, etc.), making it particularly suitable for space-constrained cage environments. When isolation or transfer is required, guidance can be provided through the viewing window and feeding door.

[0031] 2. The viewing window allows keepers to monitor the animals' condition in real time, reducing the risk of direct contact. The viewing window features a glass panel on the outside, made of high-strength explosion-proof glass or transparent composite material, ensuring both safety and visibility. The viewing window is designed to be adjustable; a stainless steel profiled plate allows for easy opening and closing, facilitating observation of animal behavior or emergency intervention by keepers.

[0032] 3. The feeding opening is positioned at a suitable height on the door to accommodate the panda's eating habits, whether standing or sitting, reducing food spillage. It can be equipped with a built-in feeding trough or an anti-pinch design to prevent injury to the animal while feeding.

[0033] 4. Keepers can feed the pandas without entering the enclosure, reducing disturbance from frequent door openings, minimizing stress, and meeting animal behavior management requirements; it also reduces the risk of human-animal contact and animal escape. Optimized feeding methods ensure food hygiene and ease of access. Shortened operation time reduces labor intensity and enhances operational safety and efficiency.

[0034] 5. The main components of the cage control door are made of stainless steel. Durable materials and anti-corrosion treatment extend the door's lifespan, reducing the need for frequent repairs or replacements and lowering long-term maintenance costs. This invention, through structural innovation and functional integration, solves the problems of low security, limited functionality, and insufficient efficiency of traditional panda cage control doors. It combines practicality and forward-thinking design, making it suitable for modern zoos and wildlife conservation organizations. Attached Figure Description
