[0032] See also Figures 1 to 9 , is a foldable pet bathtub provided as the embodiment, comprising a foldable support frame 01, and a flexible bathtub 02 disposed on the support frame 01. When the support frame 01 is folded, the flexible bathtub 02 can be folded and collapsed by itself;

[0033] The support frame 01 includes a support component 10, a first bracket component 20 and a second bracket component 30 which are arranged on the inner side of the support component 10 from top to bottom and can be folded, two sets of linkage components 40 for connecting the first bracket component 20 and the second bracket component 30, and a locking device 50 which is arranged on the linkage component 40 and can prevent the first bracket component 20 and the second bracket component 30 from folding.

[0034] The locking device 50 includes a locking seat 51 fixedly arranged on the linkage assembly 40, a locking rod 52 fixedly arranged on the first bracket assembly 20 and slidably connected to the locking member, a spring piece 53 arranged in the locking rod 52 and having a limiting column 531, and a button 54 arranged on the locking seat 51; a limiting hole matching the limiting column 531 is arranged on the locking rod 52, the spring piece 53 is arranged in the locking rod 52, and the limiting column 531 extends out of the locking rod 52 through the limiting hole. After the button 54 is pressed, the limiting column 531 is compressed into the limiting hole to achieve unlocking. The above-mentioned button unlocking and fixing methods are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail.

[0035] The pet bathtub of the present invention also includes a storage rack 03 arranged on the support frame 01 and located below the flexible bathtub 02; the storage rack 03 includes two U-shaped connecting members 80, and a storage platform 82 with both ends arranged on the two connecting members 80. The connecting members 80 are provided with arc-shaped grooves 81 at both ends to cooperate with the installation of the round tube. The storage platform 82 is made of cloth, and holes are sewn at both ends so that the two ends of the storage platform 82 can be sleeved on the two connecting members 80. Since most of the parts in the present invention are key, arc-shaped grooves 81 are provided to facilitate cooperation with the round tube. After cooperation, it can be locked by a number of bolts.

[0036] The support assembly 10 includes two support feet 11 that are overall U-shaped and symmetrically arranged, and two first connecting seats 12 for connecting the upper ends of the support feet 11. Any support foot 11 is rotatably connected to the two first connecting seats 12; a first through hole 121 is provided on the first connecting seat 12 for sliding connection with the locking rod 52.

[0037] The first bracket assembly 20 includes two symmetrically arranged supporting frames 21, two second connecting seats 22 arranged on the brackets of the two supporting frames 21 and used to connect the two supporting frames 21, any one of the supporting frames 21 is rotatably connected to the two second connecting seats 22, and the two supporting frames 21 form a runway-shaped structure through the two second connecting seats 22, and the upper opening of the flexible bathtub 02 is sewn to the two supporting frames 21; when folded, the two supporting frames 21 can be rotated downward to approach each other, and after unfolding, they are kept in the open state by the locking device 50.

[0038] The second bracket assembly 30 includes two symmetrically arranged support seats 31 and two third connecting seats 32 for connecting the two support seats 31. Any support seat 31 is rotatably connected to the two third connecting seats 32 so that the two support seats 31 can be folded or opened. The support seat 31 is composed of a plurality of round tubes to facilitate the placement of the flexible bathtub 02. A second through hole 321 is provided on the third connecting seat 32 for sliding connection with the locking rod 52. The unfolding and folding principle of the second bracket assembly 30 is similar to that of the first bracket assembly 20 and will not be described in detail.

[0039] The linkage assembly 40 includes two linkage rods 41 that are hinged in the middle to form an X-shape, a fourth connecting seat 42 for connecting the upper ends of the two linkage rods 41 to the first bracket assembly 20, and a fifth connecting seat 43 for connecting the lower ends of the two linkage rods 41 to the second bracket assembly 30. The upper and lower ends of the linkage rod 41 are rotatably connected to the fourth connecting seat 42 and the fifth connecting seat 43 respectively.

[0040] The flexible bathtub 02 has storage bags 60 on both sides of the upper opening, a strap 70 on the bottom, and a connector 322 on the third connection seat 32 that is detachably connected to the strap 70. When the flexible bathtub 02 is unfolded, the strap 70 can be used to pass through the connector 322 to fix it. Velcro can be fixed at both ends of the binding to facilitate quick fitting and disassembly. The bottom of the flexible bathtub 02 is also a drain, and water is drained through a spring tube.

[0041] The support foot 11 adopts a folding structure, which includes a U-shaped base foot, two support rods rotatably connected to the base foot, and a rotating mechanism arranged between the base foot and the support rods. The support rods are folded or opened with the base foot through the rotating mechanism. Specifically, after being opened, the open state is maintained by the rotating structure. When folding is required, the rotating mechanism is pressed and the base foot can be rotated upward against the support rod.

[0042] The working principle of the foldable pet bathtub of the utility model is as follows:

[0043] When unfolding, press the button of the rotating mechanism to open the bottom foot and confirm whether it is locked, open the support frame 21 upwards, press the second connecting seat 22 downwards to drive the locking rod 52 to move downwards, drive the two support seats 31 to open through the linkage assembly 40, and then wait until the limit column 531 of the spring 53 reaches the specified position and remains locked, after tidying up the flexible bathtub 02, turn the storage bag 60 outwards, and finally block the drainage port to waterproof;

[0044] When folding, first drain the water in the flexible bathtub 02, flip the storage bag 60 inward, press the button 54, the limit column 531 is pressed into the limit hole, the two support frames 21 are pressed downward, driving the locking rod 52 to move upward, and the two support seats 31 are driven to fold downward through the linkage assembly 40. After folding into place, press the button of the rotating mechanism to fold the bottom foot, so that the folded pet bathtub is small and does not occupy space.

[0045] In summary, the foldable pet bathtub of the utility model drives the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly to unfold or fold by setting a linkage assembly, which is not only convenient for daily unfolding and use, but also the bathtub can be folded when not in use, reducing the volume of the bathtub, with a simple structure and easy use.
