Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of portable incubator technology, and in particular to a portable incubator for transporting laboratory animals. Background Technology

[0002] A portable incubator is a device specifically designed to maintain a constant temperature environment during transportation. It is mainly used to ensure that the physiological state of laboratory animals is not affected by temperature changes during transportation, thereby avoiding stress or physiological damage to the animals.

[0003] Utility model CN211412075U discloses a portable constant temperature box. Its key technical features include: a box body and an internal power supply device. The internal power supply device provides power to the temperature control area and sample storage area. The box body has a through slot, and the internal power supply device includes a charging slide rail disposed within the through slot. A battery is slidably connected to the charging slide rail, and the battery is electrically connected to the charging slide rail. The box body also has a storage slot, and the internal power supply device includes a spare battery disposed within the storage slot. The spare battery is configured to replace itself when its charge level falls below a certain threshold, thus electrically connecting the spare battery to the charging slide rail. Through the battery, the temperature control area and sample storage area can be powered. When carrying the temperature control box outdoors, it is not necessary to connect it to an external power source to store sample containers in the sample storage area, enhancing the portability of the temperature control box.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned issues, the following technical defects exist: Portable incubators for transporting laboratory animals are devices specifically designed to maintain a constant temperature environment during transportation. The incubator is primarily used to ensure that the physiological state of laboratory animals is not affected by temperature changes during transport, thereby avoiding stress or physiological damage. However, when the incubator's angle shifts during transport, it can startle the animals, leading to incontinence. Some of the excreted feces may accumulate on the separator, causing an increase in the concentration of nitrogen and nitrogen dioxide in the air. Combined with the heating effect of the incubator, this makes the air inside become pungent. Over time, this can irritate the respiratory tract of the laboratory animals, causing respiratory distress or other health problems, thus affecting the accuracy of subsequent experimental results.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new portable incubator for transporting laboratory animals to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where, during transportation, the angle of the incubator shifts, causing animals to be startled. Startled animals may become incontinent, and some of their feces may accumulate on the separator plate. This leads to an increase in the concentration of nitrogen and nitrogen dioxide in the air. Combined with the heating effect of the incubator, this makes the air inside the incubator pungent and, over time, irritates the respiratory tract of the experimental animals, causing respiratory distress or other health problems, thus affecting the accuracy of subsequent experimental results.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a portable incubator for transporting laboratory animals, comprising: an incubator body, a dirt-separating plate installed on the inner wall of the incubator body, an adjustment device on one side of the incubator body, the adjustment device including a fixing rod, the fixing rod being fixedly connected to one side of the incubator body, a stop block being rotatably connected to the arc-shaped end of the fixing rod away from the incubator body, a coil spring being slidably connected to the arc-shaped surface of the fixing rod, the two ends of the coil spring being fixedly connected to the incubator body and the stop block respectively, a connecting groove being opened on one side of the incubator body, a dirt collection box being slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove, a fixing block being fixedly connected to the side of the incubator body near the fixing rod, a motor being fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block, a rotating rod being fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, an adjustment block being threadedly connected to the arc-shaped surface of the rotating rod, two cleaning plates being fixedly connected to the side of the adjustment block near the incubator body, the two cleaning plates being slidably connected to the two sides of the dirt-separating plate respectively, and a protective plate being fixedly connected to the side of one of the cleaning plates away from the dirt-separating plate.

[0008] The aforementioned components achieve the following effects: The portable incubator for transporting laboratory animals is a device specifically designed to maintain a constant temperature environment during transportation. The incubator primarily ensures that the physiological state of laboratory animals is not affected by temperature changes during transport, thereby avoiding stress or physiological damage. However, if the incubator body shifts at an angle during transport, it can startle the animals, leading to incontinence. Some feces may accumulate on the separator, increasing the concentration of nitrogen and nitrogen dioxide in the air. Combined with the heating effect of the incubator, this can make the air inside the incubator pungent, which, over time, can irritate the respiratory tract of the laboratory animals, causing respiratory distress or other health problems, affecting the accuracy of subsequent experimental results. In such cases, the adjustment device can be used to clean the animal's feces, thereby improving the air quality inside the incubator and enhancing the animal's respiratory stability.

[0009] Preferably, scrapers are fixedly connected to both sides of the cleaning plate, and the cross-section of the scrapers is arc-shaped.

[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is that when the cleaning plate slides on the dirt-separating plate, the scraper installed on the cleaning plate can improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning plate on the feces and improve the stability of the cleaning plate in cleaning the feces on the dirt-separating plate.

[0011] Preferably, sliding blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the sludge storage box, and both sliding blocks are slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove.

[0012] The effect achieved by the above components is that when the sludge box slides on the inner wall of the connecting groove, the sliding block installed on the sludge box can improve the stability of the sludge box sliding in the connecting groove, thereby improving the sliding effect of the sludge box sliding in the connecting groove.

[0013] Preferably, the abutment block is a titanium alloy block.

[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is that the titanium alloy abutment block has a relatively hard surface, and its surface is less likely to be damaged even after long-term use, resulting in better performance.

[0015] Preferably, an auxiliary device is provided on the side of the protective plate away from the dirt-separating plate. The auxiliary device includes an adjustment groove, which is opened on one side of the protective plate. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the adjustment groove. A feeding box is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjustment groove. The inner wall of the feeding box is slidably connected to the arc surface of the connecting rod. A connecting block is fixedly connected to one end of the arc surface of the feeding box. An adjustment rod is threaded through the inner wall of the connecting block. One end of the arc surface of the adjustment rod is threaded to the inner wall of the protective plate.

[0016] The effect achieved by the above-mentioned components is that when feeding laboratory animals, the food can be stored through the auxiliary device and fixed to the protective plate to prevent the laboratory animals from spilling the food. The auxiliary device can improve the stability of feeding.

[0017] Preferably, the other end of the arc surface of the adjusting rod is provided with a plurality of anti-slip grooves, and the plurality of anti-slip grooves are evenly distributed on the adjusting rod.

[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is that when the adjusting rod is rotated within the connecting block, the anti-slip groove on the adjusting rod can increase the friction on the surface of the adjusting rod body, thereby improving the efficiency and speed of rotating the adjusting rod within the connecting block under the action of the anti-slip groove.

[0019] Preferably, a contact pad is fixedly connected to the side of the feeding box near the protective plate, and the contact pad is in the shape of a ring.

[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is that when the feeding box comes into contact with the inner wall of the adjustment tank, the contact pad installed on the feeding box can prevent wear and tear between the feeding box and the adjustment tank, thereby improving the stability of the contact between the feeding box and the adjustment tank.

[0021] Compared with related technologies, the portable incubator for transporting laboratory animals provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] This invention provides a portable incubator for transporting laboratory animals. By setting an adjustment device, when laboratory animals excrete feces in the incubator, the feces accumulated on the dirt-separating plate can be cleaned by the adjustment device. After cleaning, the feces can be removed from the incubator body by the adjustment device. Thus, cleaning can purify the air quality in the incubator, improve the environment for laboratory animals in the incubator, and thereby improve the accuracy of subsequent experimental results.

[0023] By setting up an auxiliary device, when it is necessary to feed laboratory animals, the food can be poured into the auxiliary device, which can store the food and fix the stored food to a protective plate, thereby preventing the laboratory animals from spilling the food.

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0033] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 7 The present invention provides a portable constant temperature box for transporting laboratory animals, comprising: a constant temperature box body 1, a dirt-proof plate 4 installed on the inner wall of the constant temperature box body 1, an adjustment device 2 on one side of the constant temperature box body 1, and an auxiliary device 3 on the side of the protective plate 211 away from the dirt-proof plate 4.

[0035] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figures 3 to 5The adjusting device 2 includes a fixed rod 201, which is fixedly connected to one side of the constant temperature chamber body 1. A stop block 203 is rotatably connected to the arc-shaped end of the fixed rod 201 away from the constant temperature chamber body 1. A coil spring 202 is slidably connected to the arc-shaped surface of the fixed rod 201. Both ends of the coil spring 202 are fixedly connected to the constant temperature chamber body 1 and the stop block 203, respectively. A connecting groove 204 is provided on one side of the constant temperature chamber body 1. A dirt collection box 205 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove 204. A fixed block 206 is fixedly connected to the side of the constant temperature chamber body 1 closest to the fixed rod 201. A motor 207 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixed block 206. A rotating rod 208 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 207. The arc-shaped surface of the rotating rod 208 is threaded... An adjusting block 209 is connected, and two cleaning plates 210 are fixedly connected to the side of the adjusting block 209 closest to the incubator body 1. The two cleaning plates 210 are slidably connected to both sides of the dirt-separating plate 4. A protective plate 211 is fixedly connected to the side of one of the cleaning plates 210 furthest from the dirt-separating plate 4. The portable incubator body 1 for transporting laboratory animals is a device specifically designed to maintain a constant temperature environment during transportation. The incubator body 1 is mainly used to ensure that the physiological state of laboratory animals is not affected by temperature changes during transportation, thereby avoiding stress reactions or physiological damage to the animals. However, when the incubator body 1 shifts at an angle during transportation, it can cause the animals to be frightened, and frightened animals may exhibit incontinence. Some of the excreted feces accumulate on the separator plate 4, leading to an increase in the concentration of nitrogen and nitrogen dioxide in the air. Combined with the heating effect of the incubator body 1, this makes the air inside the incubator body 1 pungent and, over time, irritate the respiratory tract of the experimental animals, causing respiratory distress or other health problems, affecting the accuracy of subsequent experimental results. In this case, the animal feces can be cleaned using the adjustment device 2, thereby improving the air quality inside the incubator body 1 and enhancing the respiratory stability of the animals. Scrapers 212 are fixedly connected to both sides of the cleaning plate 210. The cross-section of the scrapers 212 is arc-shaped. When the cleaning plate 210 slides on the separator plate 4, the scrapers installed on the cleaning plate 210... 212 can improve the cleaning effect of the cleaning plate 210 on feces and improve the stability of the cleaning plate 210 in cleaning feces on the dirt-separating plate 4. Both sides of the dirt collection box 205 are fixedly connected with sliding blocks 213. Both sliding blocks 213 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove 204. When the dirt collection box 205 slides on the inner wall of the connecting groove 204, the sliding blocks 213 installed on the dirt collection box 205 can improve the stability of the dirt collection box 205 sliding in the connecting groove 204, thereby improving the sliding effect of the dirt collection box 205 sliding in the connecting groove 204. The abutment block 203 is a titanium alloy block. The surface of the titanium alloy abutment block 203 is relatively hard, and its surface is less likely to be damaged after long-term use, resulting in better performance.

[0036] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 The auxiliary device 3 includes an adjustment groove 31, which is located on one side of the protective plate 211. A connecting rod 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the adjustment groove 31, and a feeding box 33 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjustment groove 31. The inner wall of the feeding box 33 is slidably connected to the arc surface of the connecting rod 32. A connecting block 34 is fixedly connected to one end of the arc surface of the feeding box 33, and an adjustment rod 35 is threaded through the inner wall of the connecting block 34. One end of the arc surface of the adjustment rod 35 is threaded to the inner wall of the protective plate 211. When feeding experimental animals, the auxiliary device 3 can be used to store the food and fix it on the protective plate 211, preventing the experimental animals from spilling the food. The auxiliary device 3 can improve the stability of feeding and adjust... Several anti-slip grooves 36 are provided at the other end of the arc surface of the rod 35. The anti-slip grooves 36 are evenly distributed on the adjusting rod 35. When the adjusting rod 35 is rotated in the connecting block 34, the anti-slip grooves 36 on the adjusting rod 35 can increase the friction of the surface of the adjusting rod 35. Thus, under the action of the anti-slip grooves 36, the efficiency and speed of rotating the adjusting rod 35 in the connecting block 34 can be improved. A contact pad 37 is fixedly connected to the side of the feeding box 33 near the protective plate 211. The contact pad 37 is in the shape of a ring. When the feeding box 33 contacts the inner wall of the adjusting groove 31, the contact pad 37 installed on the feeding box 33 can prevent wear from occurring when the feeding box 33 contacts the adjusting groove 31, thereby improving the stability of the contact between the feeding box 33 and the adjusting groove 31.

[0037] The working principle of the portable constant temperature box for transporting laboratory animals provided by this utility model is as follows: Start the motor 207 installed on the fixing block 206. The movement of the motor 207 will drive the rotating rod 208 to move through its output end. The movement of the rotating rod 208 will drive the cleaning plate 210 to move. The cleaning plate 210 will slide along the direction of the sludge-separating plate 4, thereby cleaning the feces accumulated on the sludge-separating plate 4 through the cleaning plate 210, allowing the feces to slide better from the sludge-separating plate 4 into the sludge collection box 205. At this time, rotate the abutment block 203 on the fixing rod 201. The movement of the abutment block 203 will cause the coil spring 202 to deform, thus releasing the fixing effect of the abutment block 203 on the sludge collection box 205. The sludge collection box 205 can then be removed from the connecting groove 204, and the feces excreted by the laboratory animal can be emptied.

[0038] Pour the food into the feeding box 33. Then connect the feeding box 33 to the arc surface of the connecting rod 32 and connect the feeding box 33 to the inner wall of the adjusting groove 31. Align the inner wall of the connecting block 34 installed on the feeding box 33 with the inner wall of the protective plate 211. Then rotate the adjusting rod 35 on the inner wall of the connecting block 34 to connect the adjusting rod 35 with the inner wall of the protective plate 211, thus fixing the feeding box 33 on the protective plate 211.

[0039] The circuits and controls involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, and will not be described in detail here.

[0040] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
