Description

  The present invention relates to a lid for a container for raising animals.

  It has two types of opposite side and bottom surfaces with a transparent hard material surface used for biological rearing of conventional small pet animals, and the main component is that the surface facing the bottom surface is open. Containers referred to as ornamental aquariums, breeding cases, and the like are containers premised on installation with the container opening portion facing upward, as shown in FIGS. 6 [I] and [J].

  However, according to the conventional technology, a wide variety of organisms have been distributed in general today. For this reason, containers that were conceived around a specific bioecology are used for organisms with ecology that do not match them. In many cases, inconvenience is likely to occur on both the breeding organism side and the breeder.

  For example, some organisms need a height higher than the floor area, prefer organisms that prefer drying over moisture, or vice versa, but are used for breeding even though their ecology is diverse Lacks the reproducibility of various environments. As an easy-to-understand example, it is optimal for fish as shown in Fig. 6 [I], but if it is used for beetles as shown in Fig. 6 [J], the height required for tree life is high. They are bred away from their original ecology.

  A beetle needs a flooring 5 such as soil, sand, or sawdust to sleep, but if it uses a breeding container of the same volume to spend most of its activity time on the tree, the floor area or bottom It is desirable to have a height that allows a perch or the like to stand against the area.

  In the environment shown in FIG. 6 [J], if the breeder puts a perch, it will be attached to the lid J1 of the container with the vent hole J2, and the lid will be destroyed and escaped by its strong force. There is even a thing. In addition, the breeder puts a filter made of paper etc. between J1 and the container 1 in order to prevent the beetle's life odor and flies and maintain the humidity of the environment, but even if it is not escaped, the filter is destroyed, Odors can be emitted to the outside, and beetle insects can die without knowing due to drying.

  In order to avoid such a situation, if the breeder avoids the insertion of a perch that becomes a stepping stone for the beetle, the beetle climbs on the slippery container wall that is not covered by the claw of the beetle because of its nature of climbing on the tree. It will be weakened.

  And in order to get away from all of this inadequacy, the breeder can also prepare something called a special breeding cage designed for a specific ecology, but that will incur expenses for that, In the diverse ecology, there are many short-lived life-like creatures such as adult beetles, which are difficult to divert to other animal breeding, and in a modern residential environment where storage space when not in use is narrow It becomes a problem.

The burden is reduced even in the storage place of the container at the time.

  One embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Reference numeral 1 denotes a rectangular parallelepiped container having a transparent hard material surface such as glass or synthetic resin, and has two opposite side surfaces and a bottom surface in FIG. 6 [I] in the trial production, and the surface facing the bottom surface is opened. The aquarium for ornamental organisms is used as the main component. (It is difficult to call the bottom surface from the gist of the present invention.) When the conventional view of FIG. 6 is defined as a normal placement, one of the smallest relative surfaces of the container 1, which is the side of the container 1. It is a perspective view which can be said to be in the state where it leaned on the bottom.

  This expression of a rectangular parallelepiped is not necessary to be a strict rectangular parallelepiped, such as slightly rounding corners or dropping corners, and it is only necessary to maintain the same function as one of the characteristics of the three rectangular parallelepipeds. It is similar to the removed shape, it has two kinds of opposite side and bottom faces, and the main component is that the faces opposite to the bottom face are open. It is a container that checks three kinds of faces with different area ratios. I need it. If the surfaces having different areas can be used as the bottom surface and the biological breeding function can be maintained, the breeder can use the living creatures by changing the height and width of one biological breeding container.

  The plate surface 2 is attached to the opening (opening portion opening) where the container 1 is opened (hereinafter referred to as the opening portion). As shown by the broken line, the plate surface 2 is cut into a mouth for inserting contents such as organisms and breeding materials (hereinafter, this insertion port is also a port for taking care of living creatures, and so on). It has been pulled out. The portion remaining outside the maintenance port is expressed as a blank portion of the plate surface 2 for explanation. In the blank portion of the plate surface 2, a vent device 3 that opens and closes and finely adjusts with a screw-in stopper is provided as a vent hole necessary for maintaining the life of the living organism. (In this document, a vent refers to a hole or mesh from a needle hole provided in a breeding container for life support of organisms as a hole, and the aggregate or natural ventilation of an amount equivalent to it is summarized. A maintenance port door that closes the maintenance port and slides open and closes on one side. In this state, the device 4 is provided. As the material of the plate surface 2, acrylic is used for ease of processing, but other hard materials such as glass and synthetic resin may be used.

  The thing shown to this paragraph 0036 is also a thing which can be conceived on the basis of the cover J1 for living-breeding cases shown in FIG. 6 [J] as a background art. In the background art, the hard material which assumes the escape prevention strength of a living organism is assumed. The lid part J1 is provided with a ventilation part J2 consisting of a net, a fence, a hole, etc. for ventilating the living organisms while preventing escape of the living organisms. As shown in J3, there is a maintenance port provided with a lid or door for taking in and out contents such as rearing materials.

  Returning to FIG. 1 again, four vent hole devices 3 are provided at the four corners of the plate surface 2 as the best mode. As a result, there is a vent device 3 that can be opened and closed in the vicinity of the bottom side of any one of the four sides of the mouth of the open portion of the container 1 at the bottom.

  FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view showing the structure in a state where each part described in FIG. 1 is moved. To make it easy to understand, the parts that make up each part are given the alphabet below the same number and the parts are explained. In the trial production, the plate surface 2 can be attached to and detached from the peripheral edge of the opening of the container 1 with a 2b screw through a packing material made of rubber or other elastic material, but the 2a packing material and the 2b screw Regardless of which surface the container 1 has, the floor material such as sand and earth, which is one of the breeding materials put in for the living things inside, should not be leaked outside from the opening edge of the container 1. This is for the purpose, and as long as it is possible to use other techniques such as adhesion, the attachment method of 1 and 2 is not limited on the premise of close contact.

  The maintenance port cut out on the plate surface of 2 has a margin in 2, which means that any surface of the side as viewed from the open part of the container 1 can be used as the bottom surface, from the inside of the selected bottom surface. It means that a certain amount of flooring such as sand or earth can be put up to the height.

  A metal rail 4b, which is a groove for sliding the door 4a, is attached in parallel to the upper and lower outer walls 2 of the maintenance port shown in this figure, and is also adhered around the outer wall maintenance port of the plate surface 2 The door 4a is slid and inserted so as to cover the maintenance opening and the opening of the packing 4c. [2B] at the tip of the solid line arrow in FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing the structure of this portion. Is supported. In this structure, as an example, the 4d pin passes through the pin hole e of 4a and is inserted into the pin hole f of the plate surface 2 to achieve a strong function of preventing escape of living organisms. If it is made into a screw-like thing, the door 4a will become a thing with the outstanding adhesion | attachment strength. The packing 4c is not limited to rubber as long as it is an elastic material. 4a may be a hard material similar to 2, and 4b may be a hard material other than metal, or may be a shape having the same characteristics directly formed on the outer wall surface of 2.

  At one end of the door 4a, a convex portion was provided as a stopper and a handle for opening and closing the door.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the vent device shown as 3 provided in the blank portion of the plate surface 2 in FIG. 1 adjusts and manages the amount of ventilation into the container in the vent hole portion formed in the plate surface 2. Is provided with a cylindrical body 3b which is a cylindrical mouth, and the mouth has a thread groove formed by having a screw thread, a thread valley, or both, and a plug 3a having a screw groove is similarly screwed. This is a screw-in type vent device that can be attached to 3b. When the inside of the container is assumed to be a closed space from the mouth, it is a vent device having an opening / closing function capable of being sealed by semi-sealing from 3b by screwing 3a and opening by removing 3a. . In the prototype, vinyl chloride material was used for both, but other hard materials such as similar synthetic resin and metal may be used.

  As shown in [A] of FIG. 3, the vent device 3 shown in FIG. 3 has a plug portion 3a and a main body portion 3b as a basic configuration, and, as the best mode, 3b so as to be mirror-imaged on the opposite side. And 3b as a pair, a structure having a tunnel penetrating from the outer wall surface of the container to the inner wall surface of the plate surface 2 and having a screw groove at both ports of the tunnel, and a structure in which the plug portion 3a can be attached. The main purpose of this vent device is for living animals that are placed in the floor part of the breeding container according to the change in the way they are placed from one of the four sides as seen from the open part of the container 1. Close the plug 3a to prevent the floor material such as soil and sand from leaking to the outside and perform the outflow prevention function of the contents, or open the plug 3a from the ceiling side at that time to perform the ventilation function, There is a choice to open and close.

  Four venting devices 3 were installed as the best form in paragraph 0038, but it was assumed that all four of the two relative surfaces that are the side when viewed from the open part of the container 1 were used as the bottom surface. Therefore, in changing the bottom area of the container 1 and expanding the applicability, if each of the two types of relative surfaces can be used, the same effect is obtained, and only one type of the two types of relative surfaces is used. However, since the applicability of the container 1 is widened, the number of the vent device 3 may be singular, and by increasing the number of the vent device 3 to a plurality, two, or three, the ventilation and convenience as a biological breeding container can be improved. FIG. 3 will also be described in detail later.

Returning to FIG. 2, the size of the maintenance opening on the plate surface 2 varies depending on the size of the container to be used, but as a guide, the size that allows a 45 mm diameter sphere to pass through to take in and out organisms. When the bottom of each of the two relative surfaces, which are side surfaces when viewed from the open part of the container, is used as the bottom surface, from the bottom surface to the maintenance port The height is 10mm or more. In order to attach the vent device 3, the height from the other bottom surface to the maintenance port may be 25 mm or more. The plate surface 2 may be a lid made of a three-dimensional shape having the above characteristics.

  The effect of these inventions is shown in FIG. 4 as a specific example. [E] in FIG. 4 selects one of the two narrow relative surfaces as the bottom as viewed from the open part of the container 1 as the bottom, and places the stag beetle in the rearing space to determine the height. FIG. At this time, the vent device 3 on the side close to the bottom surface is sealed by the plug 3a, so that the floor material 5 such as soil and sand put from the floor surface to the bottom of the maintenance port is not leaked to the outside. The plug 3a of the vent device 3 on the side close to the ceiling surface is lightly loosened to take a small amount of air exchange with the outside, thereby obtaining the oxygen necessary for the stag beetle and the stag beetle from the inside. It is possible to reduce the daily odor outflow, prevent the intrusion of flies from outside and inside, and prevent the inside from drying and maintain the humidity without using a filter such as paper. The stag beetle is a tree life ecology similar to the beetle described in the prior art, and if this kind of installation is possible, the container 1 can be placed in the same container and higher climbing trees can be put in. And can be used as a more comfortable breeding container.

  Similarly, in [F] of FIG. 4, the placement is changed from the above, and one of the two large relative surfaces that are side surfaces as viewed from the open portion of the container 1 is selected as the bottom, and the breeding space is increased. It is a figure where the installation is sought and a red frog is raised inside. At this time, the vent device 3 on the side close to the floor surface is sealed by the plug 3a, and the floor material 5 such as dirt, sand, and red frog mud that is put from the floor surface to the bottom of the maintenance port is leaked to the outside. There is nothing. The vent device 3 on the side close to the ceiling surface has internal biological escape prevention measures. In this case, the plug 3a is removed in a state where a wire net is provided, and a large amount of ventilation exchange with the outside is performed. It has been broken. Red frogs need a lot of oxygen compared to insects, adults are almost terrestrial, but leave a semi-aquatic migratory, and it is preferable that there are wet flooring and dry space in the breeding container, Compared to insects that perform in vitro digestion, there is less living odor, and even if flies invade, they are eaten as food, which is good. And, above all, the red frog jumps low and moves, so it is preferable that the floor area is large and the height is not so high. If such an installation is possible, the container 1 is more preferable for the frog in the container and can be used as a more comfortable breeding container.

  As shown in FIG. 4, in both cases [E] and [F], the maintenance port door 4a can be opened and closed without any obstacles. It can be opened and closed horizontally in [E] and up and down in [F]. Further, as shown by the two-dot chain line diagram of FIG. 2, 4a can be opened and closed on the opposite side, so that there is no trouble in the place of installation due to obstacles such as the wall of the room in the way of placing [E]. In this case, the ceiling surface and the floor surface at this time can be reversed. In these figures, the size of the vent device 3 is different between the top, bottom, left and right, which is intended to have convection changes in ventilation. When the ceiling and floor of [F] are reversed, the ceiling side Since the size of the vent device 3 is small, it becomes a container for a living organism that prefers moisture over red frogs, and if [E] is reversed, the situation on the left and right changes, thus changing the internal environment. However, since the size of the vent device 3 depends on the application and the size of the container, no special provision is provided, but as a guide, the diameter should be at least 10 mm.

  In this way, when each of the two relative surfaces that are side surfaces as viewed from the open part of the container 1 is placed as the bottom surface, the vent on the side close to the floor surface can be sealed according to the placement method. As a result, it is possible to use one biological breeding container in various ways by keeping the ventilation from the ceiling side without leaking the flooring material 5 such as soil and sand for biological breeding to the outside. This is the basic idea of the present invention. Of course, a method of use as shown in FIGS. 6 [I] and 6 [J] is also possible.

  Returning to FIG. 3 again, the details of the vent device 3 will be described. The vent device 3 is basically composed of a plug portion 3a and a main body portion 3b, both of which have screw grooves, and 3a can be attached and detached from 3b by screwing. In FIG. 3, in order to make it easy to see the structure of the vent device 3, the plate surface 2 to be attached is drawn as a cross section.

  [A] is the perspective view which looked at the vent apparatus 3 from the breeding container outer side. [B] is a perspective view of the air vent device 3 viewed from the inside of the breeding container on the opposite side, and as the best mode, the air vent device 3 is a mirror image of the air vent device 3 on the opposite side. have. [B] is a state in which a processed stopper 3a2 is attached to the inside of the breeding container. The processed stopper 3a2 is characterized by a fence for preventing air circulation and preventing escape of living organisms.

  [A] is a continuous image in the order of (A1), (A2), and (A3) explaining the attachment and detachment state and function of the plug 3a. In (A1), the plug 3a is hermetically sealed with respect to the main body 3b, and functions to cut off the ventilation exchange between the breeding container and the outside, and the outflow of biological breeding floor materials such as earth and sand. In the following (A2), the plug 3a is loosened and attached to 3b, and the details of the state are shown in [C] as sectional views of all parts. The part “c” in [C] is a packing material made of an elastic material such as rubber attached to the inside of the plug based on 3a, and exhibits the effect of enhancing the sealing performance by screwing deeply. The curved arrow in [C] represents the flow of ventilation and the like, and if the plug 3a is separated from the main body 3b as shown by the arrow, a small amount of ventilation AC can be performed. Moreover, in this state, in addition to ensuring ventilation, it is possible to prevent intrusion of flies and the like, and it is possible to adjust by loosening conditions such as mitigating leakage of living odor of domesticated organisms and maintaining humidity. In the following (A3), the plug 3a is completely removed from 3b and a large amount of alternating current such as ventilation can be performed.

  As the best mode, the shape shown in FIG. 3 which is paired in mirror image on the outside and inside of the breeding container, if both sides are sealed using the plug 3a, the leakage prevention of the breeding flooring material is strengthened and the sealing strength In addition to maintaining the above, there is no entry of breeding floor materials such as earth and sand into the tunnel-shaped cavity h shown in [C], which is convenient when replacing or cleaning the floor material in the breeding container. In addition to the relationship between the stopper 3a and the stopper 3a2 shown in paragraph 0052, variously processed stoppers and instruments having screw grooves on both the outside and inside of the container can be attached using a screw-in type. Therefore, it becomes a thing that can cope with more diverse biological ecology, and it can be called an environmental control device.

  This mirror image is for the purpose of explaining the prototype, and is characterized by the shape of the tunnel, which has screw grooves on both sides of the tunnel, and can be fitted with a screw or plug. Therefore, it is more convenient than attaching to only one side. Specific examples of plugs and instruments showing the convenience of the screw-in type vent device are shown below.

  Reference numeral 3a3 shown in FIG. 3D is a plug having a blind fence that aims to achieve a function of improving air permeability while preventing the outflow of humidity inside. 3a4 is a thing with a hole that prevents the escape of dangerous creatures in the center, and the breeder does not open the maintenance mouth with tweezers etc. from there and prevents the escape of quick creatures and safely feeds etc. Can be given. 3a5 is a stopper provided with a net for preventing the escape of internal organisms, and is used for organisms that live in an environment that is not different from the outside air environment. 3a6 is a plug fitted with an electric motor type fan in order to make the air permeability better for dry ecology and the like. 3a7 is a stopper for putting a heating device such as a heater, running water, air, etc. into the breeding container, i is an electric cord or a hose tube, and j is a tube for maintaining their fixation and airtightness. A packing made of an elastic material such as funnel-like rubber.

  As for 3a8, there are ecology that the same kind of moth kills the moth after mating, and the parent eats the child hatched from the egg. What is common here is a diagram where a large object eats a small object. This is more likely to occur when the breeder is unable to determine when they will be separated in captivity, and they will live together forever. Therefore, if the tunnel-shaped device of k is used to joint with another container having the vent device 3, small objects can move to another container through it, and large objects cannot pass through. It can function to prevent

  3a9 is a plug without g packing shown in [C]. In the way shown in [E] and [F] in FIG. 4, it can be assumed that the usage is mostly used for land organisms, so the sealing is a floor material such as soil and sand inside. Even if it is a thing which can prevent the outflow of the outside, the use of the breeding container 1 is remarkably widened, and it can be said that it is cheap and the best in terms of cost compared with 3a.

  FIG. 3 [K] shows an improved 3b2 in which a hole 1 is provided in the side surface of the main body 3b that is closed by the plug 3a when the plug 3a is closed. This makes it possible to improve the air permeability when the plug 3a is in a half-open state as shown in the figure, so it is not necessary to completely remove the plug 3a for air permeability, and it is convenient because there is no accident of losing the removed plug 3a. In addition, the range of humidity adjustment by the mounting depth of 3a becomes wide.

"Effect of the embodiment"
According to this embodiment, it is convenient that one rectangular parallelepiped breeding container can be used for various biological ecology. In addition to the normal placement of the rectangular parallelepiped container, when one of the two relative surfaces, which are side surfaces as viewed from the open portion, is placed as the bottom surface, the vent device 3 on the side close to the floor. If the container is sealed, the internal biological breeding floor will not be leaked to the outside, so make use of the height and width of the rectangular parallelepiped's characteristics to match the breeding biological ecology at that time. Can be used.

  And the vent device 3 on the side close to the ceiling at that time can finely adjust the ventilation and prevent bad odors, and can be equipped with various processed tools and plugs. It is possible to respond to the ecology of the organisms that are bred from time to time.

  Further, the slide door 4a provided in the maintenance port can be opened and closed when any surface other than the container opening portion is used as the bottom, and the internal maintenance can be performed.

  Moreover, since the part where the sawdust used for the flooring 5 is in contact with the air is only one of the causes, the sawdust is caused by the urine of the beetle as shown in [J] of FIG. When it got wet, the ventilation inside the sawdust deteriorated, causing it to rot. Therefore, in the state shown in FIG. 4E, if the plug 3a of the vent device 3 on the floor side is semi-sealed so that the floor material does not leak, or if it is sealed to the extent that 3a9 in FIG. In addition to being able to touch the air slightly from the side as well as from the top, the air permeability inside the sawdust has improved and it has become difficult to rot. Some breeding organisms may have a symbiotic relationship with aerobic microorganisms living in the flooring or the like, and the vent device 3 is also effective in such cases.

  If the container as shown in FIG. 6 [J] is used while standing upright, the floor material 5 leaks from the ventilation section, and there is an inconvenience of increasing the chance of escape of the living organisms. It is possible to breed animals safely and comfortably.

  Even when it is used for fish and the like as in the background art FIG. 6 [I], if all the vent devices 3 coming to the ceiling surface are sealed with the plugs 3a, they are moved to the outside when moving or moving. It is convenient to carry in and out while preventing water leakage.

"Other embodiments"
The air vent device 3 shown in FIG. 3 is a pair of mirror images on the outer side and the inner side, but in the context of the method of using the side surface viewed from the open part of the container 1 as the bottom surface, Since it is sufficient that the near-side vent device can seal the floor material such as the soil and sand inside without leaking to the outside, in this case, it is sufficient that only one side is not required.

  And in the above-described method, if a measure for preventing escape of indigenous organisms, a net, a fence, etc. is provided at a location corresponding to the inside of the vent device 3, the outer vent device 3a and 3b are screwed. However, it is only necessary to close the vents close to the floor at that time, such as by fitting, so that floor materials such as soil and sand do not leak to the outside.

  Moreover, in the method of using each of two types of relative surfaces that are side surfaces as viewed from the open portion of the container 1 as the bottom surface, one surface having a different area among the relative surfaces, a total of 2 If the surface can be used, the purpose can be fulfilled. Therefore, the maintenance port vacated on the plate surface 2 does not need to have a blank portion in all of the open portions of the container 1, and the broken line in FIG. The shape as shown may be sufficient, and it is sufficient to have a blank space where a flooring can be put in accordance with how to place the sides of the opening of the container 1 and at least two sides.

  In addition, in the drawing, the screw-in type vent hole device 3 has a screw groove on the outside of the main body portion 3b and a screw groove on the inner side of the plug portion 3a. This relationship is shown on the inside of the main body portion 3b. The thing attached with the relationship of a screw groove on the outer side of a screw groove and the plug part 3a may be sufficient.

  Moreover, the thing made into the vent hole apparatus main-body part 3b is the thing made into trial manufacture description, This characteristic may be integrally formed in some plate surfaces 2, and should just be a vent hole which has a screw groove. .

  Also, the sliding door device 4 shown in FIG. 1 can be used in the above-described method, though it may impair convenience, if it is characterized by opening to one side. Further, the door itself may be a screw-type stopper.

  As shown in FIGS. 5 [G] and [H], a vent device that can be sealed so that the always open vent m (or equivalent vent hole) and floor material 5 such as soil and sand are not leaked to the outside. If there is one 3, two surfaces with different area ratios can be used. These are not the best in terms of breathability and convenience, but they are the best in terms of cost. In [H], since the convex portion as a stopper on the door 4a is eliminated and the door is simply a flat surface, the strength is reduced, but the slide is opened and closed in two directions depending on how the container is placed. Further, when the living organism is a species such as solid stool that does not produce urine, the packing 4c for bringing the door into close contact is not necessarily required. In [H], a hole was formed in the n portion of the door to improve air permeability.
