Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pet strollers, in particular to a pet bin and an outdoor pet stroller. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, people's love for pets is growing, and even when going outdoors, they often use a stroller to carry pets.

[0003] For example, the patent document with the authorization announcement number CN222310635U discloses a adjustable pet stroller, which comprises a base, a support is arranged at the bottom of the base, a universal wheel is arranged at the bottom of the support, a support rod is arranged at the first end of the base, the support rod extends upward, a first mounting seat is arranged on the base, a mounting groove is formed in the top surface of the first mounting seat, the mounting groove is rectangular, and a positioning groove is formed in the lower corner of the mounting groove, a detachable pet bin is arranged in the first mounting seat, an embedded part is arranged at the bottom of the pet bin, a positioning part is arranged at the bottom of the embedded part, the embedded part is matched with the mounting groove, the positioning part is matched with the positioning groove, a movable positioning rod is arranged in the first mounting seat, the positioning rod can be inserted into the positioning hole formed in the side surface of the positioning part, a first fixing sleeve is arranged on the support rod, a bottom plate is arranged on one side of the first fixing sleeve, a second mounting seat is arranged on the bottom plate, the second mounting seat has the same structure as the first mounting seat, and a detachable storage bin is arranged on the second mounting seat, the bottom structure of the storage bin is the same as that of the pet bin, and the storage bin can be fixed on the second mounting seat.

[0004] The above-mentioned pet stroller uses the pet bin and the storage bin arranged above and below to respectively realize the accommodation of pets and the placement of articles, and the positions of the two can be changed or the two can be used separately according to needs. However, this design has obvious deficiencies in interactivity: when the storage bin is placed in the upper position and the pet bin is placed in the lower position, the natural height difference between the user and the pet bin formed during the pushing process hinders direct communication and interaction between the user and the pet. Even if the positions of the storage bin and the pet bin are exchanged, the storage bin is placed in the lower position and the pet bin is placed in the upper position, since the pet bin is of a fully enclosed structure, only a bin door for the pet to enter and exit and a transparent window for the pet to observe the outside environment are arranged on the pet bin, and the transparent window is located at the end of the pet bin far from the user, so that during the pushing process, the pet can only observe the outside world through the transparent window far from the user, and it is still difficult to make effective visual contact and interaction with the user. In a strange outdoor environment, this lack of interaction can easily cause the pet to feel anxious and even trigger a stress response. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art by proposing a pet cage that improves the height of each part of the cage to unconsciously guide the pet's line of sight, enabling the pet and the user to have effective visual contact and interaction.

[0006] To address the above problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A pet housing includes a housing body, the housing body having a housing bottom and housing walls enclosing the housing bottom, so that the housing body has an open structure as a whole. The enclosed housing walls have a high enclosed state that obstructs the view and a low enclosed state that opens the view, relative to the height of the housing bottom. The housing walls are designed to protrude on the inner side of the low enclosed state to form a platform facing the user.

[0007] As a further aspect of the present invention: the top surface of the platform is designed to be concave to form a storage area.

[0008] As a further aspect of the present invention, interactive slots are provided on the warehouse wall.

[0009] As a further aspect of the present invention: a through hole is provided on the warehouse wall, and a marker is provided inside the through hole.

[0010] As a further aspect of the present invention, the high-enclosure state and the low-enclosure state of the bin wall are transitioned by a smooth curve.

[0011] As a further aspect of the present invention, the bottom of the bin is provided with anti-slip texture and several ventilation holes.

[0012] The present invention also proposes an outdoor pet stroller, including the aforementioned compartment, a walking component disposed on the compartment, and a handrail disposed on the compartment, wherein the handrail is disposed on the outside of the low enclosure state of the compartment wall, so that during the pushing process, the user's standing position is facing the low enclosure state of the compartment wall.

[0013] As a further aspect of the present invention: the handrail frame includes a connecting frame that can be detachably installed at one end on the outer side of the low enclosure state of the warehouse wall, and a handrail is provided at the other end of the connecting frame. The handrail includes a transition part and a handrail part arranged in parallel. The transition part is installed at the end of the connecting frame, and the transition part and the handrail part are connected by an arc-shaped part. The inner side of the arc-shaped part has a tapered constriction design from top to bottom.

[0014] As a further aspect of the present invention, the trolley also includes an integrally formed extension located below the compartment body. The extension is generally curved to form a carrying area between it and the compartment body.

[0015] As a further aspect of the present invention: the part of the extension that forms a cargo area with the cargo body is provided with anti-slip texture and several ventilation holes.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The open-top design of the enclosure provides an open and ventilated environment, facilitating interaction between the pet and the outside world. The enclosure walls feature two height options: a high-enclosure and a low-enclosure. The high-enclosure effectively blocks the pet's view, preventing stress reactions. The gradual descent from the high-enclosure to the low-enclosure design subtly guides the pet's gaze, causing it to easily shift its focus to the low-enclosure area. When the user stands around the low-enclosure area, effective visual contact and interaction with the pet are possible.

[0017] 2. In addition, the protruding platform on the inner side of the low enclosure provides a comfortable resting platform for pets, where they can lie down to rest or watch, improving the overall comfort and practicality.

[0018] 3. The top surface of the pet carrier features a recessed design to create a storage area, allowing for the placement of pet food, water bowls, or small toys. This makes it easy for pets to access their items and prevents them from slipping, improving both convenience and hygiene. The recessed structure of the storage area also helps to keep items organized and prevent them from scattering, making the pet carrier more tidy and organized.

[0019] 4. The interactive slots on the walls provide pets with visual and tactile interaction. Pets can observe the external environment through the slots, reducing anxiety caused by the enclosed space. At the same time, children can also interact with pets through the slots, such as petting or feeding them, which enhances the emotional bond between pets and their owners and improves the pets' psychological well-being.

[0020] 5. A marker is installed in the through hole on the cage wall. When the pet is placed in the cage, the chain on the pet's neck or body can be attached to the marker to prevent the pet from being disturbed by the outside world and having a stress response.

[0021] 6. The bottom of the pet compartment features anti-slip textures and several ventilation holes. The anti-slip textures effectively prevent pets from sliding inside, increasing stability, especially suitable for active pets and reducing the likelihood of falls. They also increase friction to facilitate the placement of pee pads. The ventilation holes improve the airflow of the bottom, helping to expel moisture, keep the compartment dry, and prevent bacterial growth, thereby improving the pet's health and comfort.

[0022] 7. By combining the pet compartment with the walking components and the handrail, a pet stroller is formed. The handrail is set on the outside of the low enclosure of the compartment wall, ensuring that the user is naturally facing the pet in the low enclosure when pushing it, making it easy to observe the pet's status and interact with it at any time, thus improving the safety and convenience of pushing it.

[0023] 8. The handrail structure includes a transition section, a handrail section, and an arc-shaped section. The conical constriction structure on the inner side of the arc-shaped section allows users to place disposable beverage cups in their hands, enabling users to operate the cart with both hands. This improves maneuverability and reduces the safety hazard of tipping over due to uneven force distribution. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an outdoor pet stroller includes a compartment 1, a walking assembly 5, and a handrail frame 6. The structure and layout of these three components are described below: (1) Container 1: Container 1 has a bottom 2 and a wall 3. The wall 3 is set on the bottom 2 in an enclosed manner. Therefore, under this layout, the container 1 as a whole constitutes an open-type container, which is used to house the pet.

[0029] Furthermore, the enclosed silo wall 3 is redesigned so that there is a different height difference between the top of the silo wall 3 and the bottom 2. The position where the silo wall 3 and the bottom 2 have a large height difference is designated as the high enclosed state, and the position where the silo wall 3 and the bottom 2 have a small height difference is designated as the low enclosed state. The high enclosed state and the low enclosed state of the silo wall 3 are transitioned by a smooth curve. The high enclosed state and the low enclosed state can be respectively determined by... Figures 3-4 In the case of a and b, it is represented by Figure 3 For example, in this state, the plane of the high enclosure state is located above the plane of the low enclosure state. When the pet is placed in the enclosure 1, on the one hand, the high enclosure state blocks the pet's field of vision, and on the other hand, the design of the gradual transition from the high enclosure state to the low enclosure state forms an unconscious directional guide for the pet, causing the pet's gaze to shift to the low enclosure state.

[0030] like Figure 2 As shown, to allow the pet's body to align with its line of sight, the inner side of the enclosure 3 is designed to protrude, forming a lying platform 4. This platform 4 provides a place for the pet's paws, helping it maintain stability and balance for better interaction with the user. Preferably, the top surface of the platform 4 can be recessed to form a storage area 401. This storage area 401 provides a better place for the pet's paws and can also be used to store pet treats.

[0031] Furthermore, an interactive slot 301 is provided on the wall 3, which allows children of appropriate height to interact with the pet; at the same time, a through hole 302 is provided on the wall 3, and a marker 303 is installed in the through hole 302; when the pet is placed in the compartment 1, the chain on the pet's neck or body can be attached to the marker 303 to prevent the pet from being disturbed by the outside world and having a stress response.

[0032] Furthermore, the bottom of the storage compartment 2 is designed with anti-slip textures. These textures prevent the pet from losing its balance and also help to keep the pee pads placed on the bottom of the storage compartment 2 in place. When pee pads are placed on the bottom of the storage compartment 2, several ventilation holes can also be made in the bottom of the storage compartment 2.

[0033] (2) Walking component 5: The walking component 5 is located at the bottom of the compartment 1 to enable the compartment 1 to move smoothly and conveniently. Specifically, it can be any rolling component in the prior art, such as rollers, casters, etc. The number of components is selected according to the structure of the compartment 1, etc., and will not be elaborated here to avoid cumbersome writing. In some embodiments, the bottom of the compartment 1 is extended downward to form an extension 7. The extension 7 is generally curved and is used to form a carrying area 8 between it and the compartment 1 above. The carrying area 8 can be used by the user to place shopping bags and other items. Of course, this extension 7 can also be provided with anti-slip textures and ventilation holes, just like the compartment bottom 2 mentioned above.

[0034] Meanwhile, based on the existence of the extension 7, if the walking component 5 is selected as a roller, the extension 7 can be used as the mounting carrier for the roller, thereby achieving a more compact structure for the trolley.

[0035] (3) Handrail 6: Handrail 6 is installed on the compartment 1, allowing users to move the trolley to a designated location. Since the location of the handrail 6 affects the user's position and thus their interaction with the pet, this paper places the handrail 6 in a low-enclosure position, preferably on the outer side of the low-enclosure position of the compartment wall 3. This position can be adjusted by... Figure 2 This design, used to represent the pet's position, ensures that the user stands facing the low enclosure of the storage wall 3. The high enclosure, low enclosure, and handrail 6 are arranged linearly, with the low enclosure in the middle. The low enclosure represents the pet's line of sight, and the handrail 6 represents the user's position. Therefore, this arrangement creates the optimal orientation for the pet and the user, allowing for effective visual contact and interaction.

[0036] Furthermore, since the handrail 6 in the existing technology is often only designed as a horizontal bar structure, relying on the horizontal bar for the user to hold; when the user is holding a water cup or disposable beverage cup, if the trolley needs to be moved at this time, one can only hold the water cup or disposable beverage cup with one hand and grasp the push handle with the other hand. In this case, the single-handed control of the trolley is poor, which makes the trolley easy to deviate from the expected walking trajectory, and there is also a safety hazard of tipping over due to uneven force.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, based on the above problems, this application improves the handrail frame 6: the handrail frame 6 includes a connecting frame 601, one end of the connecting frame 601 is detachably installed on the outer side of the low enclosure state of the compartment wall 3, the other end of the connecting frame 601 is located above the compartment body 1, and a handrail 602 is integrally formed on this end. The handrail 602 includes a transition part 6021 and a handrail part 6022 arranged in parallel. The transition part 6021 is installed at the end of the connecting frame 601, and the transition part 6021 and the handrail part 6022 are connected by an arc-shaped part 6023. The arc-shaped part 6023 has an overall superior arc structure. The handrail part 6022 is provided with anti-slip texture. The inner side of the arc-shaped part 6023 has a tapered constriction design from top to bottom. The conical constriction design is used to match the existing disposable beverage cups, which are generally truncated cone-shaped (larger diameter at the top and smaller diameter at the bottom). When the trolley needs to be pushed, if the user has a disposable beverage cup in their hand, they can directly place the disposable beverage cup from top to bottom on the inside of the arc-shaped part 6023, and then operate the trolley with both hands, which is easy to operate.

[0038] Of course, the structure inside the curved part 6023 can also be customized according to the shape of the cup used by the user.

[0039] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of one embodiment of the present invention, but this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should still fall within the patent coverage of this invention.
