Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of field rodent measurement, and in particular to a portable field device for measuring rodent morphological data. Background Technology

[0002] Wild mice are small rodents that live in the wild. In order to understand the morphological data of wild mice, some measuring devices are needed to measure the body length, weight, shape and other characteristics of the mice. In order to be suitable for use in the wild, these measuring devices are generally easy to carry.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221325324U, which discloses a three-dimensional calibration stage for measuring small animals. The stage includes a measuring platform with a placement groove in the middle of its upper end, and sliding grooves at both the front and left ends. Measuring mechanisms are movably connected within each of these sliding grooves. A first scale bar is located on the left side of the upper end of the measuring platform, and a second scale bar is located at the front of the upper end. A support rod is fixedly connected to the rear of the upper end of the measuring platform, with a positioning mechanism fixedly connected to its upper end. Anti-slip pads are fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower end of the measuring platform. This utility model provides a three-dimensional calibration stage for measuring small animals, enabling rapid, intuitive, and easy measurement of the three-dimensional data of small animal specimens. The measurement method is relatively simple, and it avoids movement of the two limiting rods and scale bars during measurement, thus improving measurement accuracy.

[0004] While the aforementioned device can measure the three-dimensional data of small animals, the measuring platform lacks a protective structure, limiting its application to specimen measurement. However, understanding a species often requires a large number of data samples, and relying solely on animal specimen measurements does not provide entirely reliable or practical research data for that species. Therefore, a portable field device for measuring rodent morphological data is proposed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-2 One embodiment of this utility model is a portable field measurement device for rodent morphology data, including an electronic scale 3 for measuring the weight of wild rodents. A limit component 2 is provided on the upper part of the electronic scale 3 for limiting the measuring mechanism 1 on the electronic scale 3. A measuring mechanism 1 is provided on the top of the electronic scale 3 for measuring the length, width and other data of wild rodents. A height measuring component 4 is provided in the middle of the measuring mechanism 1 for measuring the height of wild rodents.

[0033] like Figures 4-5 As shown, the measuring mechanism 1 includes a measuring box 10, which is used to hold wild rodents and prevent them from escaping the measuring device. It can be made of transparent material. An installation ring 11 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the outer wall of the measuring box 10, which is used to connect various components. Blocks 12 are fixedly connected to the left, right, front and rear parts of the inner wall of the measuring box 10, which are used to connect the height measuring component 4. The measuring box 10 is provided with two measuring elements 13 inside, which are used to measure the length and width of the wild rodent. The left and front parts of the installation ring 11 are provided with sliding openings 111, which are used to move the measuring elements 13. The left and front parts of the top surface of the installation ring 11 are provided with scale lines 112. The front, back, left and right sides of the inner wall of the measuring box 10 are provided with sliding grooves 101, which are used to adjust the position of the measuring elements 13.

[0034] Furthermore, the measuring element 13 includes an auxiliary ring 131. The auxiliary rings 131 of the two measuring elements 13 are interlocked to allow the two auxiliary rings 131 to move in corresponding directions. Slider 132 is fixedly connected to both ends of the auxiliary ring 131 near the inner side of the measuring box 10. It is used to restrict the movement direction of the auxiliary ring 131. The slider 132 is slidably connected to the slide groove 101. A connecting frame 133 is fixedly connected to the top of the auxiliary ring 131. It is used to connect various components. A screw 135 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting frame 133. It is used to connect various components and to connect and limit the fastening sleeve 136. The screw 135 is slidably connected to the slide 111. The lower part of the screw 135 is threadedly connected to the fastening sleeve 136. It is used to limit the position of the measuring element 13 to a certain extent. An arrow 134 is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting frame 133 near the scale line 112. It is used to help the user read the measurement data of the wild mouse.

[0035] Please see Figures 2-3 The limiting component 2 includes a fixing ring 21, which is used to connect various components. The fixing ring 21 is fixedly connected to the electronic scale 3. The top of the fixing ring 21 is fixedly connected to a limiting post 22, which is used to connect a ball bearing 23. The ball bearing 23 is rotatably connected to the side of the limiting post 22 near the measuring box 10. It is used to limit the position of the measuring mechanism 1 and makes it easier to disassemble and assemble the measuring mechanism 1. The ball bearing 23 will not exert much force on the measuring box 10, which can reduce measurement error.

[0036] Furthermore, the height measuring component 4 includes a connecting plate 41, which is used to connect various components. A measuring ruler 42 is movably connected through the middle of the connecting plate 41, which is used to measure the height of the field mouse. A contact plate 43 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the measuring ruler 42, which is used to assist in the height measurement of the field mouse. A limiting rod 44 is fixedly connected to the top of the contact plate 43, which is used to restrict the movement of the measuring ruler 42 and the contact plate 43 to prevent them from tilting. The limiting rod 44 is movably connected through the connecting plate 41. A positioning rod 411 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the connecting plate 41, which is used to connect the height measuring component 4 and the measuring mechanism 1. The positioning rod 411 is movably connected to the mounting block 12, and the middle of the mounting block 12 has a hole that matches the positioning rod 411.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, first place the electronic scale 3 on a flat position, then place the measuring box 10 of the measuring mechanism 1 between multiple limiting posts 22, and make the measuring box 10 rest on the upper part of the electronic scale 3. The ball bearing 23 will restrict the position of the measuring box 10 to a certain extent. Then, place the wild mouse to be measured into the measuring box 10, and the weight of the wild mouse can be measured.

[0038] After the weight measurement is completed, rotate the fastening sleeve 136 at the bottom of the two screws 135 to move the fastening sleeve 136 away from the mounting ring 11, so that the measuring element 13 can move. At this time, the two measuring elements 13 can be moved by the connecting frame 133 to measure the length and width of the field mouse. When the measuring element 13 moves, the two auxiliary rings 131 will slide inside the other auxiliary ring 131, and the screw 135 will slide in the sliding hole 111. According to the size of the field mouse, the measuring element 13 is stopped in a suitable position. At this time, the arrow 134 on the connecting frame 133 will point to the corresponding scale line 112, and the morphological data of the field mouse can be obtained by the data of the scale line 112.

[0039] If it is necessary to measure the height of the wild mouse, simply align the positioning rod 411 at the bottom of the connecting plate 41 with the multiple blocks 12 and insert it so that the connecting plate 41 rests on the upper part of the measuring box 10. Then move the measuring ruler 42 so that the contact plate 43 can contact the wild mouse. At this time, the height data of the wild mouse can be obtained through the measuring ruler 42. After the measurement is completed, simply pull the connecting plate 41 upward to make it move the positioning rod 411 away from the blocks 12. Then take the wild mouse out of the measuring box 10, reset the measuring component 13, and tighten it with the fastening sleeve 136 and the screw 135 to fix the position of the measuring component 13. Then remove the measuring mechanism 1 from the electronic scale 3.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
