[0002] When performing experimental surgery on snakes, it is usually necessary to anesthetize them to facilitate observation, surgery, or other experimental procedures. Common methods of anesthetizing snakes include using gaseous anesthetics (such as isoflurane) or injectable anesthetics. The purpose of anesthesia is to reduce the snake's pain and stress response during the experiment, keep the snake still, facilitate the researchers to perform the surgery, reduce the risk of accidental injury, and allow researchers to operate under more controlled conditions, thereby improving the success rate of the surgery.

[0003] Currently, the lack of effective body immobilization measures poses a significant challenge to anesthesia in snakes due to the snake's tendency to twist its body. This twisting not only complicates the anesthesia procedure but also increases the risk and inconvenience for the operator. Furthermore, the tracheal inlet of a snake is typically located behind the tongue, forming a narrow opening. Therefore, administering tracheal anesthesia to snakes requires considerable caution and involves a complex procedure. These factors severely impact overall work efficiency. To address this, we propose a drug delivery and immobilization device for anesthetizing snakes. Utility Model Content

[0026] 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.

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 4 A drug delivery and restraint device for anesthetizing snakes, including a snake-body restraint mechanism, comprising a restraint cylinder 2 for restraining the snake's body;

[0028] The opening mechanism, located at the front end of the fixed cylinder 2, is used to open the snake's mouth. The drug delivery mechanism includes a transparent ball 8 and a drug delivery tube 9. The transparent ball 8 has at least one perforation 10 for the drug delivery tube 9 to pass through. One end of the drug delivery tube 9 that passes through the transparent ball 8 is used to insert into the snake's spiracle, and the other end of the drug delivery tube 9 is used to connect an external drug delivery device. The snake body fixing mechanism also includes a base 1, which is fixedly connected to the fixed cylinder 2. The base 1 has two fixing components 6 spaced apart front and back, which are respectively located at both ends of the fixed cylinder 2. The two fixing components 6 are used to fix the snake's head and tail. When performing surgical experiments on snakes, it is necessary to first... The anesthesia process involves using an anesthesia device designed for snake experiments. The snake is guided through a fixed tube 2, with its head at one end and its tail at the other. Fixing tape is then wrapped around the snake's head and tail, securing it to the fixing assembly 6, thus immobilizing the snake's body. Simultaneously, a transparent ball 8 (made of silicone) is inserted into the snake's mouth, allowing observation of the trachea. A drug delivery tube 9 passes through a perforation 10 and moves to the trachea, where anesthetic liquid can be injected to anesthetize the snake. This method facilitates rapid anesthesia of snakes and improves work efficiency.

[0029] Please see Figure 3The fixed cylinder 2 is equipped with an airbag assembly, which includes an airbag 11 and an air supply structure. The airbag 11 is located inside the fixed cylinder 2. The air supply structure includes a compression cylinder 12 and a compression rod 1201. One end of the compression cylinder 12 is connected to the airbag 11 through a pipe. The compression rod 1201 is located inside the compression cylinder 12. After the snake enters the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 2, the compression rod 1201 is moved to compress the air inside the compression cylinder 12. After the compressed air enters the airbag 11, the airbag 11 expands in volume, which limits the snake and prevents the snake from twisting.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 The fixed cylinder 2 is provided with an array of arc-shaped grooves 3, and the arc-shaped grooves 3 are located at the top of the fixed cylinder 2. The corresponding arc-shaped grooves 3 facilitate the operation of the anesthetized snake body. The opening mechanism includes a clamp 13. The staff uses the clamp 13 to clamp open the snake mouth, so that the transparent ball 8 can be inserted into the snake mouth to support the snake mouth.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The transparent ball 8 is made of silicone and includes a hard layer and a soft layer. The hard layer is wrapped around the soft layer. The fixed cylinder 2 has an array of arc-shaped grooves 3, and the arc-shaped grooves 3 are located at the top of the fixed cylinder 2. The fixed cylinder 2 is connected to an arc-shaped plate 4 corresponding to the arc-shaped grooves 3 by a hinge, and the arc-shaped plate 4 is engaged with the arc-shaped grooves 3. A pull block 5 is fixedly installed on the arc-shaped plate 4. Pulling the pull block 5 can move one end of the arc-shaped plate 4, and the arc-shaped grooves 3 can be sealed by the arc-shaped plate 4.

[0032] The working principle is as follows: First, when performing surgical experiments on snakes, they must be anesthetized. Using an anesthesia device for snake experiments, the snake is guided through a fixed tube 2, with its head at one end and its tail at the other. Then, adhesive tape is used to secure the snake's head and tail to the fixing component 6, thus fixing the snake's body. Simultaneously, a transparent ball 8 (made of silicone) is inserted into the snake's mouth, allowing observation of the trachea. A drug delivery tube 9 passes through a perforation 10 and moves to the trachea, where anesthetic liquid can be injected to anesthetize the snake. This facilitates rapid anesthesia of snakes, improving work efficiency. Pulling the lever 5 moves one end of the arc-shaped plate 4, thus removing the seal on the arc-shaped groove 3. The corresponding arc-shaped groove 3 facilitates surgery on the anesthetized snake.
