Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cat toys, and in particular to a portable cat tunnel. Background Technology

[0002] Keeping pets has become an increasingly important part of people's growing need for a better life. In modern life, more and more people choose to keep pets for entertainment, to relieve loneliness, and for companionship. Pets have become one of the family members. Cats are a relatively common type of pet. Cat toys are necessities for pet cats. Among them, cat tunnels are a type of cat toy.

[0003] Most cat tunnels on the market are currently single-piece designs, meaning they cannot be disassembled, are difficult to store, and their tunnel structure cannot be altered. Therefore, they present many inconveniences for travel or outdoor use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide a portable cat tunnel that can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A portable cat tunnel includes a base plate, a fixed tunnel tube, and a telescopic tunnel tube. The base plate is detachably connected to the fixed tunnel tube, and the telescopic tunnel tube is detachably connected to the fixed tunnel tube. A spring is installed inside the telescopic tunnel tube, and the outer fabric surface of the telescopic tunnel tube is sleeved and fixed on the spring.

[0007] Furthermore, the fixed tunnel cylinder is fixed to the base plate with screws.

[0008] Furthermore, the fixed tunnel cylinder includes a first fixed cylinder and a second fixed cylinder, the two fixed cylinders are interconnected and connected at a certain angle, and the telescopic tunnel cylinder is connected to the end of the second fixed cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, a soft connection with a plush edge is used between the first fixed cylinder and the second fixed cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the first and second fixed cylinders have different diameters, with the smaller diameter fixed cylinder being able to be inserted into the larger diameter fixed cylinder.

[0011] Furthermore, a window is provided on the second fixed cylinder.

[0012] Furthermore, several connecting strips are sewn onto one end of the telescopic tunnel cylinder near the second fixed cylinder, with the two ends of the connecting strips being the rounded and bristled sides of Velcro, respectively.

[0013] Furthermore, the second fixed cylinder has several Velcro surfaces that can be attached to the connecting strip at one end near the telescopic tunnel cylinder, and the Velcro surfaces include rounded surfaces and burr surfaces, which are respectively located on the inner and outer sides of the end of the second fixed cylinder.

[0014] Furthermore, a folding seam is provided in the middle of the base plate, and the base plate can be folded along the folding seam.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This invention uses a combination of a fixed tunnel tube and a telescopic tunnel tube to assemble a cat tunnel toy with a specific shape, and employs a detachable connection method for easy carrying and installation. The telescopic tunnel tube can also be used separately from the fixed tunnel tube. Attached Figure Description

[0017] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the present invention in its unfolded state;

[0018] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model in its telescopic state. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] Please refer to the figure. This embodiment provides a portable cat tunnel, including a base plate 1, a fixed tunnel tube, and a telescopic tunnel tube 6.

[0021] A folding seam 11 is provided in the middle of the base plate 1, and the base plate 1 can be folded along the folding seam.

[0022] The fixed tunnel cylinder includes a first fixed cylinder 2 and a second fixed cylinder 4, which are interconnected and connected at a certain angle, preferably 90°. The first fixed cylinder 2 and the second fixed cylinder 4 have different diameters, with the smaller diameter fixed cylinder being inserted into the larger diameter fixed cylinder. The first fixed cylinder 2 and the second fixed cylinder 4 are connected by a soft edge 3, which can cover the gap that occurs when the first fixed cylinder 2 and the second fixed cylinder 4 are connected due to their different diameters. A window 41 is provided on the second fixed cylinder 4. The telescopic tunnel cylinder 6 is detachably connected to the end plate 1 of the second fixed cylinder 4 and is fixed to the fixed tunnel cylinder by screws 21.

[0023] A spring 7 is installed inside the telescopic tunnel tube 6, and the outer fabric surface of the telescopic tunnel tube 6 is sleeved and fixed on the spring 7.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the telescopic tunnel cylinder 6 is detachably connected to the fixed tunnel cylinder. Several connecting strips 5 are circumferentially sewn onto one end of the telescopic tunnel cylinder 6 near the second fixed cylinder 4. The two ends of each connecting strip 5 are the rounded nap and the bristled nap of a Velcro fastener, respectively. The second fixed cylinder 4, near the end of the telescopic tunnel cylinder 6, has several Velcro surfaces 51 that can be adhered to the connecting strips 5. These Velcro surfaces 51 also include rounded nap and bristled nap, located on the inner and outer sides of the end of the second fixed cylinder 4, respectively.
