[0009] [Breeding container] First, a breeding container 10 in which a small animal stand 1 according to this embodiment is installed will be described with reference to Figures 1 and 2. Note that in each figure (as well as Figures 3 to 6), the dimensional ratios in the drawing do not necessarily match the actual dimensional ratios, and the dimensional ratios between the drawings do not necessarily match either. Figure 1 is a perspective view of the breeding container 10, and Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view of the breeding container 10 in which a small animal stand 1 is installed.

[0010] 1 and 2, the breeding container 10 is a container for breeding small animals such as hamsters, chinchillas, squirrels, etc. From the viewpoint of allowing good observation of the small animals, the breeding container 10 is preferably made of a transparent material (for example, transparent glass or transparent resin).

[0011] The breeding container 10 is formed, for example, in an approximately rectangular parallelepiped shape and includes a container-shaped bottom wall member 11 that opens upward, a front wall member 12 that stands along the periphery of the opening of the bottom wall member 11, a pair of side wall members 13, and a rear wall member (not shown), and a lid member 15 that covers the upper opening formed by the members 12, 13, and the rear wall member.

[0012] The bottom wall member 11 is formed, for example, in the shape of a rectangular bowl. Legs (not shown) that are circular in plan view are provided at the four corners of the bottom surface of the bottom wall member 11. A flange 113 (see FIG. 2) with an L-shaped cross section that protrudes outward from the peripheral wall 112 is provided at the upper end of the peripheral wall 112 of the bottom wall member 11. The flange 113 extends along the upper end (periphery of the opening) of the peripheral wall 112 so as to surround the opening of the bottom wall member 11. The tip of the flange 113 extends upward.

[0013] The upper end of the peripheral wall 112 is provided with a notch 114 (see FIG. 2) formed by cutting out a part of the flange 113. In this embodiment, the notch 114 is provided at the upper end of the rear wall portion 112b of the peripheral wall 112 or at the upper end of the longitudinal center of the front wall portion 112d, but is not limited to this.

[0014] The front wall member 12 includes a front connecting portion 121 that connects the pair of side wall members 13, a pair of door portions 122, 122, and a locking portion 123 that locks the pair of door portions 122, 122 so that they do not open. The front connecting portion 121 is provided on the lower side of the front wall member 12, and is formed in a rod shape that extends in the left-right direction. The pair of door portions 122, 122 are provided above the front connecting portion 121, and are configured to be able to swing forward like a double door. The door portions 122 are made of glass plates 122a.

[0015] The side wall member 13 is provided with a plurality of air vents 131, an attachment hole 132 to which a water supply device (not shown) can be attached, and a joint portion 133 for connecting to the bottom wall member 11. The plurality of air vents 131 are circular holes and are provided on the rear side of the side wall member 13. The attachment hole 132 is an elongated hole whose width and length are greater than the diameter of the air vents 131 and is provided on the front side of the air vents 131. The joint portion 133 is provided in the lower center in the longitudinal direction (front-to-rear direction) of the side wall member 13 and is configured to be able to engage with a protrusion 112a provided on the peripheral wall 112 of the bottom wall member 11.

[0016] The rear wall member includes a rear connecting portion that connects the pair of side wall members 13 and an upper wall portion that is disposed above the rear connecting portion. The upper wall portion is, for example, a glass plate. In this embodiment, the rear connecting portion and the upper wall portion are separate bodies, but they may also be integrated.

[0017] The lid member 15 has a plurality of air vents 151 and a plurality of (four in this embodiment) recesses 152 into which the legs of other breeding containers can be fitted. The plurality of air vents 151 are holes of the same shape as the air vents 131 of the side wall member 13, and are provided on the front side of the lid member 15. The recesses 152 are circular recesses with a diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the legs of the bottom wall member 11. The plurality of recesses 152 are provided at positions into which the legs can be fitted. By providing the recesses 152, other breeding containers can be placed stably on top of the breeding container 10.

[0018] The lid member 15 is attached to the pair of side wall members 13 with rivets 16. With the above configuration, the front wall member 12, the pair of side wall members 13, the rear wall member, and the lid member 15 can be removed from the bottom wall member 11 while still integrated, as shown in Figure 2. This allows the members 12 to 15 to be removed from the bottom wall member 11 without disassembling them, making it easier to clean the inside of the breeding container 10.

[0019] [Small animal table] Next, the small animal stand 1 according to this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 2, the small animal stand 1 can be installed in a breeding container 10. In this embodiment, the small animal stand 1 is configured to be able to be placed on the bottom wall member 11, but this is not limiting. For example, the small animal stand 1 may be configured to be able to be attached to a mounting hole 132 of a side wall member 13. The small animal stand 1 is preferably made of resin. This makes it easy to clean the small animal stand 1.

[0021] Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the small animal stand 1, Fig. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the small animal stand 1, Fig. 5 is a plan view of the small animal stand 1, and Fig. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along line VI-VI in Fig. 5.

[0022] As shown in Figures 3 to 6, the small animal stand 1 includes a stand 2 on which a small animal can rest. The stand 2 is formed, for example, in a shape having a longitudinal direction. In this embodiment, the stand 2 is formed in the shape of a rectangular plate when viewed from above, but is not limited to this. For example, the stand 2 may be formed in an L-shape when viewed from above, or in a stepped shape. The stand 2 extends, for example, from one side wall member 13 (see Figure 2) of the breeding container 10 to another side wall member 13.

[0023] In each drawing, the longitudinal direction of the base 2 coincides with the left-right direction, and the lateral direction of the base 2 coincides with the front-rear direction. As shown in Fig. 5, the length L0 of the base 2 in the longitudinal direction is, for example, preferably 200% or more of the width W0 of the base 2 in the lateral direction, more preferably 300% or more of the width W0, and even more preferably 400% or more of the width W0. In this embodiment, the width W0 is substantially constant in the longitudinal direction of the base 2, but is not limited to this.

[0024] 3 to 6, the stand 2 is configured to be divisible into multiple (two or more) parts in the horizontal direction. With this configuration, if the size (length L0) of the stand 2 is larger than the size (width) of the rearing container 10, the stand 2 can be divided and installed in that rearing container 10. This makes it possible to install the small animal stand 1 in rearing containers 10 of various sizes.

[0025] In this embodiment, the base 2 is composed of a first base 3, a pair of second bases 4, 4 arranged to sandwich the first base 3, and a pair of third bases 5, 5 arranged to sandwich the first base 3 and the pair of second bases 4, 4. That is, in this embodiment, the base 2 is configured to be separable into five parts, but is not limited to this.

[0026] The first stand 3 is provided at the center of the longitudinal direction of the stand 2. The longitudinal direction of the first stand 3 is a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the stand 2 in a horizontal plane and coincides with the front-to-rear direction. The lateral direction of the first stand 3 coincides with the longitudinal direction of the stand 2. As shown in FIG. 5, the length L1 in the lateral direction of the first stand 3 (excluding the connecting portion 33 (see FIGS. 4 and 6) described later) is 5% to 50% of the length L0 of the stand 2. The length L1 may be 5% or less of the length L0. The width W1 in the longitudinal direction of the first stand 3 is substantially the same as the width W0 of the stand 2. The length L1 is smaller than the width W1, for example, 50% or less of the width W1.

[0027] 4 and 6, the first stand 3 includes an upper wall 31, a hanging wall 32 hanging downward from the periphery of the upper wall 31, a pair of connecting portions 33, 33 for connecting to the second stand 4, and a locking portion 34 (see FIG. 4) for locking to a breeding container. The upper wall 31 is formed in a rectangular shape in a plan view, and is curved so that the upper side is convex. The hanging wall 32 is formed in an annular shape in a plan view.

[0028] The connecting portion 33 is a protrusion having a rectangular shape in a side view that protrudes from the side surface of the hanging wall portion 32 in the longitudinal direction of the base portion 2 (the lateral direction of the first base portion 3), and can be fitted into a housing portion 45 of the second base portion 4, which will be described later. The connecting portion 33 is preferably slightly larger in shape than the opening of the housing portion 45 so that it can be press-fitted into the housing portion 45. In this embodiment, the upper surface of the connecting portion 33 is provided with two protrusions 331 (see FIG. 4) that extend in the longitudinal direction of the base portion 2, but this is not limited to this. Note that the connecting portion 33 is not limited to the above and may be, for example, a magnet that can be connected to the second base portion 4 by magnetic force.

[0029] The locking portion 34 is provided on the lower front surface of the hanging wall portion 32. The locking portion 34 is formed in a substantially L-shape in a cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the base portion 2. The tip of the locking portion 34 extends downward. The locking portion 34 can be locked to (the notch 114 of) the peripheral wall 112 of the bottom wall member 11 shown in FIG. 2, and the upper surface of the locking portion 34 abuts against (the front connecting portion 121 of) the front wall member 12. This prevents the small animal stand 1 from slipping within the breeding container 10. The locking portion 34 may also be provided on the second base portion 4 or the third base portion 5.

[0030] The locking portion 34 is preferably shaped so that it can be manually removed (broken off) from the first stand portion 3. This makes it possible to install the small animal stand 1 in a breeding container in which the position or shape of the notch 114 differs depending on the breeding container by removing the locking portion 34.

[0031] The second stand 4 is formed, for example, in a flat tubular (angular ring) shape and is provided between the first stand 3 and the third stand 5. The longitudinal direction of the second stand 4 coincides with the longitudinal direction (left-right direction) of the stand 2. The short side direction of the second stand 4 is a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the stand 2 in the horizontal plane and coincides with the front-rear direction.

[0032] As shown in FIG. 5, the length L2 of the second base portion 4 in the longitudinal direction is 10% to 50% of the length L0 of the base portion 2. From the viewpoint of providing a storage portion 45 described later, the length L2 of the second base portion 4 is preferably longer than the length L1 of the first base portion 3. The length L2 is preferably 150% or more of the length L1, more preferably 200% or more of the length L1, and even more preferably 300% or more. The width W2 of the second base portion 4 in the lateral direction is substantially the same as the width W1 of the first base portion 3 (the width W0 of the base portion 2). The length L2 is longer than the width W2, for example, 120% or more of the width W1.

[0033] As shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, the second base 4 includes an upper wall 41, a bottom wall 42, and a front wall 43 and a rear wall 44 connecting the upper wall 41 and the bottom wall 42. The cross-sectional shape of the upper wall 41 perpendicular to the longitudinal direction is preferably the same as the cross-sectional shape of the upper wall 31 of the first base 3 perpendicular to the lateral direction. The front wall 43 hangs downward from the front edge of the upper wall 41, and the rear wall 44 hangs downward from the rear edge of the upper wall 41. The upper wall 41 and the bottom wall 42 preferably have the same shape, and the front wall 43 and the rear wall 44 preferably have the same shape. This allows the second base 4 to be connected to the first base 3 even when turned upside down.

[0034] The second stand 4 (stand 2) preferably has a stand-side storage section 45 (hereinafter simply referred to as "storage section 45") that can store ice insulation material or heat storage material. With this configuration, for example, by storing ice insulation material in the summer and heat storage material in the winter, it becomes possible to adjust the environment of the breeding container 10 in which the small animal stand 1 is installed.

[0035] In this embodiment, the storage section 45 is a space surrounded by the upper wall section 41, the bottom wall section 42, the front wall section 43, and the rear wall section 44. In other words, the storage section 45 is a hollow section of the second base section 4, but is not limited to this. For example, the storage section 45 may be a storage pocket provided in the lower part of the bottom wall section 42, etc.

[0036] The third base 5 is located further outward in the longitudinal direction of the base 2 than the second base 4. The longitudinal direction of the third base 5 is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the base 2 in the horizontal plane and coincides with the front-to-rear direction. The short side of the third base 5 coincides with the longitudinal direction of the base 2. The outer side in the longitudinal direction of the base 2 means the side opposite the first base 3 in the longitudinal direction of the base 2, and the inner side in the longitudinal direction of the base 2 means the side of the first base 3 in the longitudinal direction of the base 2.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 5, the length L3 in the short side direction of the third stand portion 5 (excluding the connecting portion 53 described later) is 5% to 50% of the length L0 of the stand portion 2. In this embodiment, the length L3 of the third stand portion 5 is shorter than the length L1 of the first stand portion 3 and the length L2 of the second stand portion 4. The length L3 is 80% or less of the length L1. In this embodiment, the length L3 is 60% or less of the length L1, but is not limited to this. The width W3 in the long side direction of the third stand portion 5 is substantially the same as the width W1 of the first stand portion 3 and the width W2 of the second stand portion 4. The length L3 is shorter than the width W3, for example, 50% or less of the width W3.

[0038] 4 and 6, the third base 5 includes an upper wall 51, a hanging wall 52 hanging downward from the periphery of the upper wall 51, and a connecting portion 53 for connecting to the second base 4. The cross-sectional shape of the upper wall 51 perpendicular to the short-side direction is preferably the same as the cross-sectional shape of the upper wall 31 of the first base 3 perpendicular to the short-side direction. The hanging wall 52 is formed in an annular shape in a plan view.

[0039] The connecting portion 53 is a protrusion having a rectangular shape in a side view that protrudes from the side surface of the hanging wall portion 32 in the longitudinal direction of the base portion 2 (the lateral direction of the third base portion 5), and can be fitted into the accommodation portion 45 of the second base portion 4. The connecting portion 53 is preferably slightly larger than the opening of the accommodation portion 45 so that it can be press-fitted into the accommodation portion 45. In this embodiment, the shape of the connecting portion 53 is the same as the shape of the connecting portion 33 of the first base portion 3, and the connecting portion 53 is provided only on the inner side of the hanging wall portion 52 in the longitudinal direction of the base portion 2, but this is not limited to this. Note that the connecting portion 53 may have a different configuration from the connecting portion 33 of the first base portion 3 as long as it is connectable to the second base portion 4.

[0040] The base unit 2 is not limited to the configuration described above, and may be configured, for example, without the third base unit 5. Furthermore, for example, the base unit 2 may be configured to include one each of the first base unit 3, the second base unit 4, and the third base unit 5. Furthermore, for example, the first base unit 3, the second base unit 4, and the third base unit 5 may be configured to be further separable.

[0041] The small animal stand 1 preferably includes legs 6 extending downward from the base 2. In this embodiment, the legs 6 include a first leg 61 extending downward from the upper wall 31 of the first base 3 and a second leg 62 extending downward from the upper wall 51 of the third base 5, but this is not limited to this. For example, the legs 6 may include legs extending downward from the bottom wall 42 of the second base 4. Alternatively, for example, the legs 6 may include only the first leg 61 (without the second leg 62).

[0042] The first leg 61 is formed, for example, in a rounded rectangular shape in a plan view, tapering downward. The height of the first leg 61 is set appropriately depending on the size of the breeding container 10 to be installed. The first leg 61 (leg 6) preferably has a leg-side storage section 611 (hereinafter simply referred to as "storage section 611") that can store ice insulation material or heat storage material. With this configuration, for example, it is possible to adjust the environment of the breeding container 10 in which the small animal stand 1 is installed, by storing ice insulation material in summer and heat storage material in winter.

[0043] In this embodiment, the first leg 61 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and the hollow portion of the first leg 61 serves as the storage section 611. The lower portion of the storage section 611 (first leg 61) is open, and cold insulation material or heat storage material can be stored through the opening. The storage section 611 may be a storage pocket provided around the first leg 61. The second leg 62 is similar to the first leg 61 described above. That is, the second leg 62 also has a leg-side storage section 621 capable of storing cold insulation material or heat storage material.

[0044] The second leg 62 is preferably provided at a position away from the first leg 61, and a space into which a small animal can enter is preferably provided below the second stand 4. This makes it possible to observe a small animal that has entered the space below the second stand 4 when the breeding container is transparent.

[0045] The platform 2 preferably has anti-slip portions 7 that prevent small animals from slipping. Such a configuration can prevent small animals from slipping on the platform 2. In this embodiment, the anti-slip portions 7 are grooves 21 provided on the upper surface of each of the upper wall portions 31, 41, 51, but are not limited to this. The anti-slip portions 7 may also be protrusions or members with a high coefficient of friction provided on the upper surface of each of the upper wall portions 31, 41, 51. It is preferable that the anti-slip portions 7 are also provided on the bottom wall portion 42.

[0046] The grooves 21 extend along the longitudinal direction of the base portion 2. A plurality of grooves 21 are provided, and are arranged at equal intervals in the lateral direction of the base portion 2. In this embodiment, the arrangement intervals of the plurality of grooves 21 provided in each of the upper wall portions 31, 41, 51 are the same, but may be different.

[0047] The small animal stand 1 is provided with a feeding container 8 for feeding the small animals, and the base portion 2 preferably has a fitting hole 22 into which the feeding container 8 can be fitted. In this embodiment, the fitting hole 22 is provided in the second base portion 4. That is, the fitting hole 22 is provided in a base portion that does not have legs 6, but this is not limited to this. In each figure, an example is shown in which the feeding container 8 is fitted into the fitting hole 22 on the left side, but it may also be fitted into the fitting hole 22 on the right side.

[0048] The fitting hole 22 is, for example, a through-hole that is circular in plan view and penetrates the upper wall portion 41 and the bottom wall portion 42 of the second base portion 4. The fitting hole 22 is provided in the center of the upper wall portion 41 (bottom wall portion 42). Note that the fitting hole 22 may also be, for example, a through-hole that penetrates only the upper wall portion 41.

[0049] Feeding container 8 includes, for example, a circular container portion 81 and a flange portion 82 extending outward from the upper end of container portion 81. When feeding container 8 is fitted into fitting hole 22, flange portion 82 catches (is locked) on upper wall portion 41. Feeding container 8 can be fitted into fitting hole 22 from above.

[0050] It is preferable that feeding container 8 is configured so that it can be fixed to fitting hole 22. This configuration prevents feeding container 8 from moving while the small animal is eating. In this embodiment, feeding container 8 has a pair of snap-fit portions 83, 83, and is fixed to fitting hole 22 by the elastic force of snap-fit portions 83.

[0051] The snap-fit portion 83 is provided with a claw portion 831 whose thickness gradually increases in the upward direction. As a result, when the feeding container 8 is fitted into the fitting hole 22, the upper wall portion 41 fits between the claw portion 831 and the flange portion 82, preventing the feeding container 8 from rattling in the vertical direction. Note that the structure for fixing the feeding container 8 to the fitting hole 22 is not limited to the above.

[0052] The small animal stand 1 preferably includes a tunnel section 9 that allows small animals to climb up and down the stand section 2. The tunnel section 9 is formed in an L-shaped cylinder when viewed from the side. The bottom surface of the tunnel section 9 is flat, and can be placed on the breeding container 10. The tunnel section 9 is installed by being inserted into the fitting hole 22 from below.

[0053] [1] As described above, the small animal stand 1 of this embodiment is installed in the breeding container 10 and has a platform 2 on which a small animal can rest, and the platform 2 is configured to be divisible into multiple parts horizontally.

[0054] According to this configuration, when the size of the stand 2 is larger than the size of the rearing container 10, the stand 2 can be divided and installed in the rearing container 10. This makes it possible to install the small animal stand 1 in rearing containers 10 of various sizes.

[0055] [2] In addition, in the small animal stand 1 described above in [1], the stand portion 2 is preferably configured to include a storage portion 45 capable of storing a cold insulation material or a heat storage material.

[0056] According to such a configuration, for example, by storing a cold insulation material in the summer and a heat storage material in the winter, it becomes possible to adjust the environment of the breeding container 10 in which the small animal stand 1 is installed.

[0057] [3] Furthermore, it is preferable that the small animal stand 1 of [1] or [2] above has legs 6 extending downward from the base 2, and the legs 6 have a storage section 611 capable of storing ice insulation material or heat storage material.

[0058] According to such a configuration, for example, by storing a cold insulation material in the summer and a heat storage material in the winter, it becomes possible to adjust the environment of the breeding container 10 in which the small animal stand 1 is installed.

[0059] [4] In addition, in the small animal stand 1 of any one of the above [1] to [3], the stand portion 2 is preferably provided with an anti-slip portion 7 that prevents the small animal from slipping.

[0060] With this configuration, the small animal can be prevented from slipping on the platform 2.

[0061] [5] Furthermore, it is preferable that any one of the small animal stands 1 of [1] to [4] above is provided with a feeding container 8 for feeding the small animal, the stand portion 2 is provided with an insertion hole 22 into which the feeding container 8 can be inserted, and the feeding container 8 is configured to be able to be fixed to the insertion hole 22.

[0062] This configuration can prevent the feeding container 8 from moving when the small animals are eating the food.
