  Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples.

  An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  1 is a cubic cage body that opens in only one direction, 2 is an entrance / exit of an animal that the cage body 1 is open, and 3 is an open / close door pivotally supported on one side 4 of the entrance / exit 2 to provide a fence or net. Used to prevent animals from inadvertently escaping. A roll screen 5 is firmly fixed to the upper side of the cage body 1 or the open / close door 3 via the support mechanisms A and B. The roll screen 5 is formed with a screen 7 mounted on the outer periphery of the roll 6. A built-in spring mechanism (not shown) and a stop mechanism that can adjust the length of the screen 7 (not shown) are incorporated. As a result, the weight bar 8 on the lower side of the screen 7 is gripped, and the length of the screen 7 is adjusted to the size itself to change the transparency in the cage body 1 to a desired state.

  In addition to the one for business use (shown in FIG. 1 (1)) in which the cage bodies 1 are arranged in multiple upper and lower stages, the single cage body (shown in FIG. 1 (2)) is used. The roll screen 5 can be easily attached to the entrance 2 or the door 3 of the cage body 1 via the support mechanisms A and B.

  Hereinafter, two examples of the support mechanisms A and B will be described.

  First, the support mechanism A will be described with reference to FIG.

  Two support fixing screws for an L-shaped frame 12 arranged at both corners of the upper side 11 of the entrance / exit 2 of the cage body 1 are fixed to the mounting bracket 10 for fixing the winding frame 9 that supports the roll 6 of the roll screen 5. 13, and screw 24, 23 that adjusts the vertical length of the mounting bracket 10 via the flat bar 14 and is drilled in the flat bar 14, and screws 24 that connect the mounting bracket 10 and the flat bar 14, It can be easily mounted using the screw 13 to which the L-shaped frame 12 is attached. A hook-shaped locking portion 15 is arranged in parallel on the upper portion of the mounting bracket 10, and a locking portion 16 that can be finely adjusted in the vertical direction is provided on the lower portion. It is possible to disengage the engaging portion 18 at the lower part of the winding frame 9 by moving it up against a built-in spring.

  That is, the upper locking portion 19 of the winding frame 9 is locked with the hook-shaped locking portion 15 of the mounting bracket 10, and the lower locking portion 18 of the winding frame 9 is locked with the locking portion 16 of the mounting bracket 10. The roll screen 5 can be easily attached along the upper side 11 of the cage body 1 by using the upper and lower engaging portions 19 and 18. When it is desired to remove it, the tongue piece 17 is pushed upward and moved upward against a spring incorporating the lower locking portion 16, so that the lower locking portion 18 of the winding frame 9 becomes lower on the mounting bracket 10. And the upper locking portion 19 and the upper locking portion 15 of the mounting bracket 10 are also disengaged. As a result, the take-up frame 9 is connected to the entrance / exit of the cage body 1. 2 can be removed.

  Next, another support mechanism B will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4 showing details.

  This support mechanism B is provided with a claw piece 20 for engagement on both sides of the winding frame 9 of the roll screen 5 having the same configuration opposite to the upper side 11 of the entrance / exit 2 of the cage body 1 and protruding on both sides. An engagement-like annular portion 21 is attached to the upper side 11 of the cage body 1 opposite to 20 (not shown).

  In this case, in the case of obstructing the opening and closing of the open / close door 3, it is necessary to dispose the annular portion 21 above the upper side 11 of the cage body 1, and thus the auxiliary material 14 a corresponding to the flat bar 14 of the support mechanism A. Can be avoided (see FIGS. 3 (1) and (2)).

  The above is the case where the roll screen 5 and the cage body 1 are attached to the entrance / exit 2, but in the support mechanism B, the claw piece 20 attached to the roll screen 5 is inserted into the upper side of the open / close door 3 as it is from above. It can be easily mounted on the door itself and slid on the front face of the open / close door 3 as the screen 7 as it is, and can be opened and closed at a desired position (see FIG. 4).

  As described above, as shown in the support mechanisms A and B, the roll screen 5 can be easily mounted not only on the cage body 1 but also on a multi-stage cage body 1 having a large number of unit structures.

  The screen 7 of the roll screen 5 described above uses a woven fabric woven with fibers enclosing an antibacterial element such as a chemical substance, for example, titanium oxide, as disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3261616 developed by the present inventors. As an animal cage that can hygienically manage various animals, it can be widely used for breeding in new eras or hospital room configurations.

  In the case of the support mechanism A, the configuration of the mounting bracket 10 attached to the upper side 11 of the cage body 1 is complicated, whereas in the case of the support mechanism B, the claw piece 20 and the annular portion 21 in which the hook is engaged. Therefore, the winding frame 9 can be attached to the upper side 11 of the entrance / exit 2 of the cage body 1. Similarly, simply attaching the claw piece 20 to the upper side of the opening / closing door 3 enables easy attachment.
