Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of biomedical experimental equipment, and in particular to an animal modeling device. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of biomedical research, animal models are important tools for exploring disease mechanisms, screening drug efficacy, and studying physiological and pathological processes. Among them, constructing specific disease models through physical, chemical, or environmental stimuli is a common research method.
[0003] In experiments using ice water stimulation to construct animal models, it is usually necessary to place the experimental animal (such as a mouse) in an ice water mixture and remove it when its struggling movements significantly decrease and the preset modeling state is reached. However, since the experimental animal is completely immersed in ice water, the experimenter needs to use tools such as tongs to reach into the water to grab it. Because the animal is in the water and in a swimming state, it is not convenient for the staff to quickly separate the animal from the ice water mixture, thus affecting the accuracy of modeling.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an animal modeling device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention provides an animal modeling device that solves the problem of the inconvenience for workers to quickly separate the animal from the ice-water mixture, thus affecting the accuracy of the modeling.

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0027] First Embodiment
[0028] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a first embodiment of an animal modeling device provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows the support structure. Figure 3 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a transparent cylindrical structure. An animal modeling device includes: a support base 1;
[0029] The limiting cylinder 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the support base 1;
[0030] A transparent tube 4 is disposed on the inner side of the limiting tube 3;
[0031] A limiting ring 5 is sleeved on the top of the outer side of the transparent cylinder 4, and a rubber sleeve 51 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the limiting ring 5, which wraps around the outer side of the transparent cylinder 4.
[0032] A limiting frame 6 is fixedly installed on the side of the limiting ring 5. A movable frame 61 is slidably connected inside the limiting frame 6. A connecting frame 62 is fixedly installed on one side of the movable frame 61. A perforated plate 63 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting frame 62. The perforated plate 63 is located at the bottom of the inner side of the transparent cylinder 4.
[0033] The main function of the limiting cylinder 3 is to limit and fix the internal transparent cylinder 4, preventing the transparent cylinder 4 from shaking or shifting during the experiment. The size of the limiting cylinder 3 is adapted to the transparent cylinder, and it can tightly wrap the outer part of the transparent cylinder 4 to form a stable installation structure.
[0034] The transparent tube 4 is made of transparent materials, such as acrylic and glass, so that the experimenters can observe the state of the experimental animals inside the tube at any time, including their activity and reaction, so as to keep track of the modeling process. The transparent tube 4 has a bottom diameter of 10cm, a depth of 25cm, and a wall thickness of 0.2cm.
[0035] A semiconductor cooling chip 12 is fixedly installed on the top of the support base 1, and the top of the semiconductor cooling chip 12 abuts against the bottom of the transparent cylinder 4.
[0036] Heat dissipation windows 11 are fixedly installed on both sides of the support base 1, and a human-computer interaction device 2 is fixedly installed on the front of the support base 1.
[0037] The semiconductor cooling chip 12 utilizes the Peltier effect of semiconductor materials to achieve the cooling function. Through direct contact with the bottom of the transparent cylinder 4, it can effectively regulate the temperature of the ice-water mixture inside the transparent cylinder 4, ensuring that its temperature is maintained within the range required for the experiment (such as 0℃~4℃), and providing a stable low-temperature environment for the modeling experiment.
[0038] A heat sink is installed at the bottom of the semiconductor cooling chip 12, and a cooling fan is installed at the bottom of the heat sink.
[0039] The heat dissipation window 11 works in conjunction with the heat dissipation structure inside the support base 1 to dissipate the heat generated by the thermoelectric cooler 12 during operation in a timely manner, so as to avoid the internal temperature of the support base 1 being too high and affecting the cooling efficiency and service life of the thermoelectric cooler 12, and to ensure the normal operation of the device; the human-machine interaction device 2 includes a display screen, operation buttons or touch panel, and the experimenter can set parameters such as experimental temperature and time through the human-machine interaction device 2.
[0040] A temperature sensor can also be installed on the inner side of the limiting cylinder 3. The detection end of the temperature sensor is attached to the side of the transparent cylinder 4 to monitor the temperature of the inner side of the transparent cylinder 4, and then transmit the monitored temperature information to the human-machine interaction device 2.
[0041] The inner side of the limiting cylinder 3 is fixedly installed with heat insulation cotton 31, and the heat insulation cotton 31 is wrapped around the outer side of the transparent cylinder 4.
[0042] The thermal insulation cotton 31 has good thermal insulation properties, which can reduce the heat exchange between the transparent cylinder 4 and the external environment, and prevent the external temperature from affecting the temperature of the ice-water mixture inside the transparent cylinder 4, thereby helping to maintain the stability of the temperature inside the transparent cylinder 4. By wrapping the thermal insulation cotton 31, the energy consumption of the semiconductor cooling chip 12 can be reduced, the energy utilization efficiency can be improved, and the modeling experiment can be carried out smoothly in a stable temperature environment.
[0043] The working principle of the animal modeling device provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0044] When using the device, place an ice-water mixture inside the transparent tube 4. Then, at a fixed time each day, place the mouse inside the transparent tube 4. The temperature of the ice-water mixture is controlled between 0°C and 4°C. Once the mouse's struggling movements in the ice-water mixture have significantly decreased, the user moves the moving frame 61 upwards. This causes the moving frame 61 to move the connecting frame 62 upwards. As the connecting frame 62 moves upwards, it will move the mouse upwards through the strainer 63, thereby separating the mouse from the ice-water mixture.
[0045] Compared with related technologies, the animal modeling device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0046] Through the coordinated structure of limiting ring 5, limiting frame 6, moving frame 61, connecting frame 62 and perforated plate 63, when the experimental mouse reaches the preset modeling state in the ice-water mixture in the transparent tube 4, the staff can move the moving frame 61 upward. The moving frame 61 drives the connecting frame 62 and the perforated plate 63 at the bottom to rise. The perforated plate 63 can lift the experimental mouse and quickly separate it from the ice-water mixture without the need to use clamps or other tools to reach into the water to grab it. This avoids the problem of difficulty in grabbing the mouse caused by the animal swimming, improves the separation efficiency, and ensures the accuracy of the modeling process.
[0047] Second Embodiment
[0048] Please refer to the following: Figure 4 and Figure 5 Based on the animal modeling device provided in the first embodiment of this application, the second embodiment of this application proposes another animal modeling device. The second embodiment is merely a preferred embodiment of the first embodiment, and the implementation of the second embodiment will not affect the separate implementation of the first embodiment.
[0049] Specifically, the second embodiment of this application provides an animal modeling device that differs in that, in an animal modeling device, a positioning hole 7 is provided at the bottom of one side of the movable frame 61, an installation frame 8 is fixedly installed on one side of the limiting frame 6, a limiting plate 81 is slidably connected inside the installation frame 8, a pull rod 82 is fixedly installed on one side of the limiting plate 81, a spring 83 is sleeved on the outer side of the pull rod 82, and a plug rod 84 is fixedly installed on the other side of the limiting plate 81.
[0050] The spring 83 is disposed on the inner side of the mounting frame 8, and one end of the pull rod 82 is disposed on the side of the mounting frame 8.
[0051] One end of the plug rod 84 abuts against the side of the movable frame 61.
[0052] The working principle of the animal modeling device provided by this utility model is as follows:
[0053] When the slug 63 moves to the position near the top opening on the inner side of the transparent tube 4, the elasticity of the spring 83 pushes the limiting plate 81, allowing one end of the plug rod 84 to be inserted into the inner side of the positioning hole 7, thereby limiting the movement frame 61. The connecting frame 62 then limits the slug 63, so that when the user removes the mouse from the transparent tube 4, there is no need to hold the movement frame 61 for a long time.
[0054] Compared with related technologies, the animal modeling device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0055] The structure, consisting of positioning hole 7, mounting frame 8, limiting plate 81, pull rod 82, spring 83, and insertion rod 84, works in concert. During use, when the sprue plate 63 lifts the experimental animal to a position near the top opening on the inner side of the transparent tube 4, the elasticity of the spring 83 pushes the limiting plate 81, causing one end of the insertion rod 84 to insert into the positioning hole 7 on the side of the moving frame 61. This securely limits the moving frame 61, ensuring that the sprue plate 63 remains stably in this position. When removing the experimental animal later, staff do not need to support the moving frame 61 by hand for an extended period, effectively reducing manpower consumption during operation. It also prevents the experimental animal from re-exposing the ice-water mixture due to accidental slippage of the moving frame 61, further ensuring the stability and accuracy of the modeling operation and improving the ease of use of the device.
[0056] 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 content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
