[0002] At present, there are no smart pet cages suitable for transportation scenarios at home and abroad. General pet transportation still uses manual methods and traditional pet transport boxes.
[0003] Pets have high requirements for the transportation environment. To ensure the safety of pets during transportation, there are high standards for oxygen concentration and temperature, which increases the difficulty of traditional transportation on transportation vehicles and aircraft (flights) - pets need to be fed and fed manually during transportation to ensure their basic physiological needs. In addition, to ensure user satisfaction, timely feedback on the status of pets is required. Therefore, if you want to do a good job in pet transportation, relying solely on traditional manual care methods is costly and has low driving safety, making it difficult to meet user needs.
[0004] As an emerging product, smart pet cages are still in the incubation stage and are mostly used only at home or in pet foster care scenarios. Some pet cages have large gaps in the cage body design, which lacks stability and sturdiness, and the mobile rollers are not removable, making them prone to tipping and sliding. There is no monitoring equipment in the cage, so the pet's status cannot be checked in real time. In addition, there is a lack of environmental monitoring modules such as temperature sensors and oxygen concentration sensors, which makes it impossible to detect the health status of the pet. It is not suitable for transportation scenarios, and there is no alarm system, so it is impossible to provide timely feedback on the safety of the pet. Some pet cages are very heavy and very difficult to move once they are fixed. The size of the cage is also fixed, which is also not suitable for pet transportation scenarios. In addition, the dog house does not have an automatic cleaning module and must rely on manual cleaning and cleaning, and there is no automatic feeding and watering equipment.
[0005] There is still no suitable smart pet cage in the existing pet transportation field. Pet shipping companies still use traditional non-smart pet transport cages and adopt inefficient transportation methods with high labor costs. Frequent pet shipping accidents and poor information flow have not been solved, making it difficult for pets to travel and causing great inconvenience to pet owners. Utility Model Content
