Description

この発明は、マウスやラットなどのげっ歯類飼育用ケージの構造に関する。   The present invention relates to the structure of a cage for raising rodents such as mice and rats.

例えば実験動物のマウス、ラット、ハムスターなどのげっ歯類飼育用ケージには、使い捨てケージがある。使い捨てケージは紙製などで、通常の飼育用ゲージと同様に内部に床敷をしいて用いる。そして動物の糞尿で汚れた床敷ごと使い捨てケージを廃棄することで、飼育用ゲージの洗浄作業を省略できる。   For example, cages for breeding rodents such as mice, rats, and hamsters of laboratory animals include disposable cages. Disposable cages are made of paper, etc., and are used with a bedding inside like a normal breeding gauge. Then, by discarding the disposable cage together with the floor covering soiled with animal manure, the cleaning work of the breeding gauge can be omitted.

しかしながら、上記の使い捨てケージは、焼却処分を可能にするために、紙製又は樹脂製で肉厚を薄くしている。このために、げっ歯類動物のかじりに弱く、かじられて穴が開き逃亡してしまうこともある。
この発明は、以上の問題点を解決するために、ケージの洗浄作業を省略できる便利さを維持しながら、げっ歯類動物にかじられて穴が開き逃亡されてしまうことを防止できるげっ歯類飼育用使い捨てケージを提供することを目的とする。
However, the disposable cage is made of paper or resin and has a small thickness in order to allow incineration. For this reason, it is weak to the bite of a rodent animal, and it may be bitten and a hole may escape.
In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, this invention can prevent rodents from opening and escaping from being pierced by rodents, while maintaining the convenience of eliminating cage cleaning. The purpose is to provide a disposable cage for breeding.

以上の課題を解決するために、第一発明は、内側に設けられる紙製又は樹脂製の使い捨てケージ部分と、この使い捨てケージ部分の外側に設けられ、げっ歯類のかじりに耐えられるケージ本体部分と、を有してなることを特徴とするげっ歯類飼育用使い捨てケージである。
第二発明は、さらに、前記使い捨てケージ部分と、前記ケージ本体部分とは、ともに上部が開放された箱状であり、この上部には金網製の蓋が配置されることを特徴とする請求項1に記載のげっ歯類飼育用使い捨てケージである。
In order to solve the above-described problems, the first invention is a paper or resin disposable cage portion provided on the inside, and a cage body portion provided on the outside of the disposable cage portion and capable of withstanding rodent galling. And a disposable cage for raising rodents.
The second invention is characterized in that the disposable cage portion and the cage main body portion are both box-shaped with an open upper portion, and a metal mesh lid is disposed on the upper portion. The disposable cage for raising rodents according to 1.

第一、又は第二発明によれば、使い捨てケージ部分とケージ本体部分の二重構造にすることで、糞尿による汚染は内側の使い捨てケージ部分で受け、よってケージの洗浄作業を省略できるとともに、外側のケージ本体部分でげっ歯類動物のかじりに耐えるので、かじられて穴が開き逃亡されてしまうことを防止できる
また、使い捨てケージ部分は、汚染を受け止めるだけの厚さがあればよく、従来の使い捨てケージよりも厚さを薄くでき、コストを抑えることができる。また、厚さを薄くできるので、焼却処分を容易に出来る。
According to the first or second invention, the double structure of the disposable cage portion and the cage body portion allows contamination by excrement to be received by the inner disposable cage portion, so that the cage cleaning operation can be omitted and the outer side can be omitted. The cage body part can resist the bite of rodents, so that it can be prevented from being pierced and escaping, and the disposable cage part only needs to be thick enough to catch contamination. The thickness can be made thinner than the disposable cage, and the cost can be reduced. Moreover, since thickness can be made thin, incineration disposal can be performed easily.

この発明の実施形態を、図1及び図2に示す。
この実施形態のげっ歯類飼育用使い捨てケージ1は、全体は上部が開放された箱状をなす。この箱状の内側には、紙製の使い捨てケージ部分3が配置される。使い捨てケージ部分3の厚さは、糞尿による汚染を受け止め、汚染が染み出て外側のケージ本体部分7を汚さない厚さとする。底部には、床敷5として、紙片、木屑などが敷かれる。図1に示すように使い捨てケージ部分3は、ケージ本体部分7の内側の形状に密着するように、成形されている(図1(B))。
An embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS.
The rodent breeding disposable cage 1 of this embodiment has a box shape with the top opened. A paper-made disposable cage portion 3 is arranged inside the box. The thickness of the disposable cage part 3 is set to a thickness that prevents contamination by excrement and does not ooze out and contaminate the outer cage body part 7. A piece of paper, wood chips, etc. are laid on the bottom as the flooring 5. As shown in FIG. 1, the disposable cage portion 3 is molded so as to be in close contact with the inner shape of the cage body portion 7 (FIG. 1B).

この使い捨てケージ部分3の外側には、げっ歯類動物6のかじりに耐えられるケージ本体部分7が配置される。材質は、プラスチックである。もっとも、その他に、ステンレス、あるいは透明アクリル樹脂などが採用できる。材質により、かじりに耐えられる厚さは異なる。   On the outside of the disposable cage portion 3, a cage body portion 7 that can withstand the bite of the rodent 6 is disposed. The material is plastic. Of course, stainless steel or transparent acrylic resin can be used. The thickness that can withstand galling varies depending on the material.

箱状の上部には、金網製の蓋9が配置される。金網製の蓋9は、概略長方形で、周囲に、箱状の縁部10に係止するフランジ部分11を有し、略中央に、給水瓶13などを置くことができる凹部15を有する。この凹部15は、蓋9の長手方向に連続する長い傾斜部分17と短い傾斜部分18からなり、両傾斜部分は略90度の角部19を形成する。凹部15の横方向は、ケージ1の内側に密着するので、金網部分は存在しない。給水瓶13は、この凹部15の長い傾斜部分17に置かれ、角部19側に先端を向け、先端に設けられる筒状の飲み口21が、短い傾斜部分18の金網の隙間から、内部に突出され、げっ歯類動物6への給水がなされる。このように給水瓶13を置くための凹部15を設けることで、給水瓶13が邪魔にならずにケージ1を何段にも重ねて使用することができる。   A wire mesh lid 9 is disposed on the box-shaped upper portion. The lid 9 made of a wire mesh is substantially rectangular, and has a flange portion 11 that is engaged with a box-shaped edge portion 10 at the periphery, and a recess 15 in which a water bottle 13 and the like can be placed at a substantially center. The concave portion 15 includes a long inclined portion 17 and a short inclined portion 18 that are continuous in the longitudinal direction of the lid 9, and both inclined portions form a corner portion 19 of approximately 90 degrees. Since the lateral direction of the recess 15 is in close contact with the inside of the cage 1, there is no wire mesh portion. The water bottle 13 is placed on the long inclined portion 17 of the concave portion 15, the tip is directed to the corner portion 19, and the cylindrical drinking mouth 21 provided at the tip is inserted from the gap of the wire mesh of the short inclined portion 18 to the inside. It is projected and water is supplied to the rodent 6. By providing the concave portion 15 for placing the water bottle 13 in this way, the cage 1 can be used in a number of layers without the water bottle 13 getting in the way.

「実施形態の効果」
この実施形態によれば、使い捨てケージ部分3とケージ本体部分7の二重構造にすることで、糞尿による汚染は内側の使い捨てケージ部分3で受け、よってケージ1の洗浄作業を省略できる。また同時に、外側のケージ本体部分7でげっ歯類動物6のかじりに耐えるので、かじられて穴が開き動物に逃亡されてしまうことを防止できる。
また、使い捨てケージ部分3は、汚染を受け止めるだけの厚さがあればよく、従来の使い捨てケージ1よりも厚さを薄くできる。よって、コストを抑えることができる。また、焼却処分を容易に出来る。
"Effect of the embodiment"
According to this embodiment, by using the double structure of the disposable cage portion 3 and the cage body portion 7, contamination by excrement is received by the inner disposable cage portion 3, and thus the cleaning operation of the cage 1 can be omitted. At the same time, the outer cage body portion 7 resists galling of the rodent animal 6, so that it can be prevented from being pierced and escaping to the animal.
Moreover, the disposable cage part 3 should just be thick enough to catch contamination, and can be made thinner than the conventional disposable cage 1. Therefore, cost can be suppressed. Moreover, incineration can be easily performed.

「他の実施形態」
図1の実施形態では、ケージ1は上部が開放された形状であったが、他の実施形態では、他の形状でもかまわない。例えば、上部の一部のみが開放された形状でもよい。この一部の開放部分には、金網製の蓋が設けられる。
"Other embodiments"
In the embodiment of FIG. 1, the cage 1 has a shape with an open top, but in other embodiments, other shapes may be used. For example, a shape in which only a part of the upper part is opened may be used. This part of the open part is provided with a metal mesh lid.
