[0030] The following combines with the attached drawings to specifically clarify the implementation mode of the present utility model. The attached drawings are only for reference and explanation, and do not constitute a limitation to the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
[0031] Refer to Figures 1 to 10 , an adjustable-angle pet cage guardrail connector, including a first connecting body 1, a second connecting body 2 and a rotating shaft 3. One end of the first connecting body 1 is hinged to one end of the second connecting body 2 through the rotating shaft 3. The other end surface and the bottom of the first connecting body 1 are jointly hollowed out to form a first slot 13, and the other end surface and the bottom of the second connecting body 2 are jointly hollowed out to form a second slot 23. The included angle between the first connecting body 1 and the second connecting body 2 varies within a range of 90 degrees to 180 degrees.
[0032] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the first connecting body 1 is integrally long strip-shaped. One end (i.e., the right end) of the first connecting body 1 hinged to the second connecting body 2 is the hinged end of the first connecting body 1. The inner side wall of the first slot 13 is inclined outward to form a V-shaped opening, which is convenient to be inserted onto the mesh sheet 4. The bottom of the first slot 13 is provided with a semicircular first limiting hole 14, and the first limiting hole 14 can be matched and positioned with a single wire at the edge of the corresponding mesh sheet 4. Both the first slot 13 and the first limiting hole 14 are arranged along the length direction of the first connecting body 1. Two adapter bases 11 are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the hinged end of the first connecting body 1. The two adapter bases 11 are integrally formed with the first connecting body 1. Each adapter base 11 is provided with an adapter hole 111. The two adapter bases 11 protrude from the hinged end surface of the first connecting body 1 and a transfer slot 12 is formed between them. A long strip-shaped snap table 121 is arranged in the transfer slot 12 along the height direction of the first connecting body 1. A notch 15 is arranged at the inner corner of the hinged end of the first connecting body 1. A limiting surface 16 is arranged on the hinged end surface of the first connecting body 1. The two adapter bases 11 are located between the limiting surface 16 and the notch 15.
[0033] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5, the second connecting body 2 is generally elongated. One end of the second connecting body 2 hinged to the first connecting body 1 (i.e., the left end) is the hinged end of the second connecting body 2. The inner side wall of the second slot 23 is inclined outward to form another V-shaped opening, which is convenient for inserting onto the mesh 4. The bottom of the second slot 23 is provided with a semi-circular second limiting hole 24, and the second limiting hole 24 can be matched and positioned with a single iron wire at the edge of the corresponding mesh 4. Both the second slot 23 and the second limiting hole 24 are arranged along the length direction of the second connecting body 2. A groove 221 is provided at the inner corner of the hinged end of the second connecting body 2, and a transfer body 21 is arranged in the groove 221. A plurality of card slots 211 are arranged at intervals on the outer wall of the transfer body 21, and each card slot 211 is arranged along the axial direction of the transfer body 21. The clamping platform 121 can cooperate with one of the card slots 211. The height of the transfer body 21 is less than the height of the second connecting body 2 and is integrally formed with the second connecting body 2. A convex platform 22 is arranged on the hinged end face of the second connecting body 2 along the height direction of the second connecting body 2.
[0034] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the transfer body 21 is located in the transfer slot 12, the transfer body 21 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 3, and the two ends of the rotating shaft 3 are respectively inserted into the transfer holes 111 of the two transfer seats 11 and are rotatably connected to the transfer body 21. When the included angle between the first connecting body 1 and the second connecting body 2 is 90 degrees, the corner formed by the groove 221 and the inner side surface of the second connecting body 2 cooperates with the notch 15 (as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 ), at this time, the clamping platform 121 cooperates with one of the card slots 211 (as shown in Figure 3 ), when the included angle between the first connecting body 1 and the second connecting body 2 is 180 degrees, the convex platform 22 on the second connecting body 2 abuts against the limiting surface 16 on the first connecting body 1 (as shown in Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 ), at this time, the clamping platform 121 cooperates with another card slot 211 (as shown in Figure 7 ).
[0035] Referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the adjustable-angle pet cage guardrail connector of the present utility model can be used to connect the connecting edges of multiple meshes 4 to form a polygonal guardrail (the number of meshes 4 needs to be greater than or equal to four). Users can select the guardrail of the corresponding size for assembly according to the size of the use site and the size of the pet. Now, the assembly method of an octagonal guardrail is taken as an example for description:
[0036] Select 8 mesh sheets 4 and connect adjacent two mesh sheets 4 using hinge connectors so that the 8 mesh sheets 4 are interconnected to form an octagon;
[0037] Select 16 connectors and unfold each connector;
[0038] Slip the upper and lower connection end edges of adjacent two mesh sheets 4 onto the same connector respectively. Specifically, the two connection bodies of the same connector at the upper end are respectively slipped downward onto the upper inner corners of adjacent two mesh sheets 4. After the same connector at the lower end is inverted, its two connection bodies are respectively slipped upward onto the lower inner corners of adjacent two mesh sheets 4 (as Figure 10 shown). During this process, the iron wires at the edges of each mesh sheet 4 need to be located within the limiting holes of the corresponding connection bodies;
[0039] Place the assembled octagonal guardrail on the open ground, then the pet can be put in for penning. The user can also adjust the inclination state of the octagon of the guardrail according to the actual usage requirements. When the unfolding angle of each connector is 135 degrees, the whole guardrail is in the shape of a regular octagon. When the angles of each connector are not all the same, the whole guardrail is in the shape of an oblique octagon;
[0040] After use, the user directly pulls out each connector, and then the annular guardrail can be folded up.
[0041] The adjustable-angle pet cage guardrail connector of the present invention realizes the angle adjustment function of the connector within the range of 90 degrees to 180 degrees by designing the hinge structure between the first connection body 1 and the second connection body 2, as well as the hollow slots on both end faces and the bottom. This design not only improves the flexibility and adaptability of the pet cage guardrail, but also simplifies the installation steps, reduces the usage cost, and meets the user's requirements for the diversification and personalization of the pet cage. At the same time, the connector of the present invention has a compact structure and strong durability, and can maintain a stable connection state for a long time, providing a safe and comfortable living environment for the pet.
[0042] The above-disclosed are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and the scope of the patent protection of the present utility model cannot be limited thereby. Therefore, the equivalent changes made according to the scope of the patent application of the present utility model still fall within the scope covered by the present utility model.
