ABSTRACT:
A laboratory animal decapitator assembly includes a base plate and a frame fixed thereto. A first platen is fixed to the frame and is provided with a first notch in an edge thereof. A second platen is slidably movable in the frame between a first position substantially removed from the first platen and a second position alongside the first platen. The second platen is provided with a second notch in an edge thereof, the second notch being substantially opposed to the first notch when the second platen is in the first position, such that the first and second notches cooperatively define an aperture. The second notch is provided with a sharp edge. An actuating lever is connected to the assembly and is operable to cause movement of the second platen between the first and second positions. A safety latch is mounted on the lever to prevent movement of the lever and, upon manipulation thereof by an operator, to permit movement of the lever, and thereby movement of the second platen from the first position to the second position.
