[0060] The following will describe the implementation methods of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present application from the contents disclosed in this specification. The present application can also be implemented or applied through other different specific implementation methods, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed in various ways based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present application. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments are only for illustrating the present application, not for limiting the scope of protection of the present application.

[0061] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic illustrations of the basic concept of the present application, and thus the drawings only show components related to the present application rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component may be changed at will, and the component layout may also be more complicated.

[0062] In the description of the present application, “plurality” means two or more.

[0063] In order to solve the technical problems in the prior art that the door body and the box body are prone to relative shaking, and when the door body is closed, if the door body directly hits the box body or the door lock is not stable, it will generate loud noise and easily scare the pet, the present application provides a pet box 1.

[0064] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 15 A pet box 1 according to a first embodiment of the present application is described. The pet box 1 includes a box body 10 , a door body 20 , a locking member 30 and an elastic member 40 .

[0065] Specifically, if Figure 1-Figure 15 As shown, the box 10 can be connected to the vehicle body 2 of the vehicle. For example, the vehicle body 2 can include a back plate, and the vehicle body 2 can be detachably connected to the back plate. The pet box 1 can be mounted on the rear side of the back plate to be placed outside the vehicle, or the pet box 1 can also be placed inside the vehicle.

[0066] The box 10 has a pet holding chamber 11, one end of the door 20 is detachably connected to one side of the box 10, and the door 20 can be switched between an open state and a closed state; a locking member 30 is provided on the door 20, and the locking member 30 is used to lock the door 20 to the box 10. An elastic member 40 is installed on at least one of the box 10 and the door 20. When the door 20 switches from an open state to a closed state, the elastic member 40 abuts between the box 10 and the door 20, and the door 20 is locked to the box 10 through the locking member 30. For example, Figure 1-Figure 6 The elastic member 40 can be installed on the box body 10, and when the door body 20 switches from an open state to a closed state, the elastic member 40 is abutted and connected with the door body 20; or, the elastic member 40 can also be installed on the door body 20, and when the door body 20 switches from an open state to a closed state, the elastic member 40 is abutted and connected with the box body 10. Furthermore, there can be multiple elastic members 40, and elastic members can be provided on both the door body 20 and the box body 30. When the door body 20 switches from an open state to a closed state, multiple elastic members 40 abut between the box body 10 and the door body 20.

[0067] It is understandable that when the door body 20 is in an open state, the door body 20 opens the pet receiving chamber 11 so that the pet can enter the pet receiving chamber 11. When the door body 20 is in a closed state, the door body 20 closes the pet receiving chamber 11 to prevent the pet from escaping the pet box 1.

[0068] Among them, one end of the door body 20 is detachably connected to one side of the box body 10. The door body 20 and the box body 10 can be installed in a rotating connection. In this case, the other end of the door body 20 is rotatably connected to one side of the box body 10, and the door body 20 is rotatably connected to one side of the box body 10 (for example, one side along the front and rear direction of the vehicle). For example, the upper end of the door body 20 is detachably connected to the box body 10, and the lower end of the door body 20 facing the box body 10 can be rotatably connected to the box body 10; or, both ends of the door body 20 can be separated from the box body 10, and when in use, it is manually covered and locked by the locking member 30.

[0069] The locking member 30 is located at the upper end of the pet box 1. The pet box 1 may include a rotating shaft 60. The lower end of the pet box 1 has two first rotating shaft mounting portions 16 spaced apart along the width direction of the vehicle. The lower end of the box body 10 has a second rotating shaft mounting portion 22. The rotating shaft 60 is passed through the second rotating shaft mounting portion 22 and the two ends of the rotating shaft 60 are respectively connected to the two first rotating shaft mounting portions 16. The door body 20 is rotatably connected to the box body 10 through the rotating shaft 60. The door body 20 may have a plurality of perforations 23 arranged in multiple rows and columns to facilitate ventilation of the pet and reduce weight.

[0070] When the door body 20 switches from the open state to the closed state, the elastic member 40 and the box body 10 abut against the other of the door bodies 20, and the door body 20 is locked to the box body 10 by the locking member 30. That is, in the process of the door body 20 rotating and switching from the open state to the closed state, the door body 20 will first abut against and connect with the elastic member 40 provided on the box body 10, and then the two will be locked by the locking member 30. In this way, on the one hand, it can prevent the force from being directly applied to the box body 10 when closing the door, and can play a buffering role when closing the door to reduce noise; on the other hand, it can improve the reliability of the seal.

[0071] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 The box body 10 can be constructed as a rectangular parallelepiped, and the box body 10 is a plastic part, such as rubber or silicone material. The rubber can produce a certain elastic deformation after being subjected to external force, so as to provide a resisting force. That is to say, the elastic member 40 made of rubber material can not only play a role of buffering and shock absorption when closing the door, so as to prevent the pet located in the pet holding chamber 11 from being frightened when the door is closed, but also, when the door body 20 is in a closed state, the elastic member 40 can also seal the door body 20 and the box body 10, that is, support between the door body 20 and the box body 10, so as to prevent the door body 20 and the box body 10 from moving due to poor road conditions, uphill and downhill bumps during the driving of the vehicle, thereby playing a role of shock absorption, and preventing abnormal noise and vibration between the door body 20 and the box body 10.

[0072] like Figure 6 As shown, the locking member 30 includes a locking plate 31, which is rotatable relative to the box body 10. The locking plate 31 is rotated to abut against the box body 10 so that the door body 20 is locked to the box body 10. The elastic member 40 can provide a force to bring the box body 10 and the locking plate 31 closer together. The elastic member 40 can provide a force to bring the box body 10 and the locking plate 31 closer together to ensure the reliability of the locking member 30 when locked. Here, it can be understood that the elastic member 40 can provide a force to bring the box body 10 closer to the locking plate 31, or Figure 6 In the example, the elastic member 40 can also provide a force for the locking piece 31 to approach the box body 10 to ensure the reliability of the abutment between the two.

[0073] When the vehicle encounters a bumpy road condition such as a bad road condition or uphill or downhill during driving, if the stability and reliability of the contact between the lock plate and the box body of the pet box 1 are not good, the two may become loose. However, the embodiment of the present application provides an elastic member 40 to provide a force that brings the two closer to each other, so as to ensure the reliability and stability of the locking member 30 in locking the door body 20 on the box body 10.

[0074] In some embodiments, Figure 1-Figure 10 As shown, the locking member 30 includes a locking body and a locking plate 31. The locking body is installed on the door body 20. The locking plate 31 is connected to one end of the locking body facing the box body 10. The locking plate 31 is rotatable relative to the box body 10. The box body 10 has a limiting section 12 extending toward the locking plate 31. When the door body 20 is in a closed state, the limiting section 12 is abutted and connected with the locking plate 31 to lock the door body 20 to the box body 10. The elastic member 40 can provide a force to bring the limiting section 12 and the locking plate 31 closer. Here, it can be understood that the elastic member 40 can provide a force to the limiting section 12 to approach the locking plate 31, or, Figure 6 In the example of , the elastic member 40 can also provide a force for the lock piece 31 to approach the limit section 12 to ensure the reliability of the abutment between the two. When the door body 20 is in the open state, the limit section 12 is separated from the lock piece 31. The door body 20 can have a locking member installation hole 24, and the locking body is penetrated through the locking member installation hole 24.

[0075] It should be noted that the specific structure and principle of the locking body are known to those of ordinary skill in the art and will not be described in detail here. The locking body has a rotating mechanism 32. The user can insert the key into the locking body from the outside of the pet box. Turning the key can drive the rotating mechanism 32 of the locking body to rotate and then drive the locking plate 31 to rotate. When the locking plate 31 rotates to abut against the limiting section 12, the door body 20 and the box body 10 can be locked. When the locking plate 31 rotates to separate from the limiting section 12, the locking member 30 is unlocked, so that the door body 20 and the box body 10 can rotate relative to each other.

[0076] For example, Figure 6 As shown, the elastic member 40 can be arranged along the edge of the door body 20. Figure 6 On one side of the left-right direction shown in FIG. 1 , the locking piece 31 can be located at the position of the limiting section 12 as shown in FIG. Figure 6 On the above-mentioned side in the left-right direction shown in the figure, the elastic member 40 is arranged on the box body 10 and the elastic member 40 abuts against the door body 20 when the door body 20 is in the closed state, and the abutting force of the elastic member 40 can not only make the box body 10 and the door body 20 fit closely, but also provide a force for the limiting section 12 and the locking piece 31 to approach. Among them, at least a part of the elastic member 40 can be arranged adjacent to the locking member 30 to ensure the strength of the force for the limiting section 12 and the locking piece 31 to approach.

[0077] Therefore, by providing the elastic member 40, not only can the buffering and shock absorbing effect between the door body 20 and the box body 10 be improved, but also the door body 20 will not collide with the box body 10 to generate abnormal noise and vibration when closing the door. In addition, the elastic member 40 can also provide a force for the limiting section 12 and the locking piece 31 to approach each other, so as to ensure the reliability of the locking member 30 when locking. Moreover, when the door body 20 is in the open state, the limiting section 12 is separated from the locking piece 31, which can facilitate the separation of one end of the door body 20 from the box body 10.

[0078] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the box body 10 has a limiting groove 13, the notch of the limiting groove 13 faces the door body 20, and one side wall of the limiting groove 13 has a limiting section 12 extending toward the other side wall of the limiting groove 13, and the limiting section 12 is spaced from the bottom wall of the limiting groove 13, and the limiting section 12 and the bottom wall of the limiting groove 13 jointly define a receiving space 19; when the door body 20 is in a closed state, the locking piece 31 is located in the receiving space 19 and the locking piece 31 is abutted and connected with the limiting section 12, and when the door body 20 is in an open state, the locking piece 31 is located outside the receiving space 19. Therefore, it is convenient for the elastic member 40 to provide a force to approach the limiting section 12 and the locking piece 31, which is conducive to improving the sealing performance of the pet box 1 and the stability of the locking member 30 when locked.

[0079] For example, the notch of the limiting groove 13 can be rectangular. When the locking member 30 is in the unlocked state, the locking plate 31 can be parallel to the long side of the notch of the limiting groove 13 so as to extend into the limiting groove 13. When the locking member 30 is in the locked state, the locking plate 31 can be rotated to be parallel to the short side of the notch of the limiting groove 13, that is, perpendicular to the direction of the long side of the notch of the limiting groove 13 so as to abut and connect with the limiting section 12 to achieve the locked state of the door body 20 and the box body 10.

[0080] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the locking piece 31 includes a first locking segment 311, a second locking segment 312 and a third locking segment 313 connected in sequence, the third locking segment 313 is used to abut against the limiting segment 12, the first locking segment 311 is connected to the locking body, the first locking segment 311, the third locking segment 313 are arranged parallel to the bottom wall of the limiting groove 13, the second locking segment 312 is arranged obliquely relative to the bottom wall of the limiting groove 13, and the third locking segment 313 is located on the side of the first locking segment 311 facing the bottom wall of the limiting groove 13.

[0081] Therefore, by setting the first locking segment 311, it is convenient to install the locking plate 31 on the locking body, and by setting the second locking segment 312, it is convenient to extend the locking plate 31 into the accommodating space 19 more smoothly. By setting the second locking segment 312, it is convenient to maintain the stability of the abutment between the locking plate 31 and the locking plate 31 segments and facilitate the uniform distribution of force.

[0082] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the limiting section 12 includes a first sub-limiting section 121 and a second sub-limiting section 122 connected to each other, one end of the first sub-limiting section 121 is connected to a side wall of the limiting groove 13, the second sub-limiting section 122 is connected to the other end of the first sub-limiting section 121, and the second sub-limiting section 122 extends toward the bottom wall of the limiting groove 13. When the locking member 30 is in a locked state, the second sub-limiting section 122 abuts against the locking plate 31. Therefore, by setting the first sub-limiting section 121 and the second sub-limiting section 122, on the one hand, the structure of the limiting section 12 can be optimized to facilitate the abutment connection with the locking plate 31; on the other hand, the matching area when the locking plate 31 rotates can be reasonably set, which is conducive to improving the smoothness of the rotation of the locking plate 31.

[0083] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the elastic member 40 is installed on the box body 10, and the side of the elastic member 40 facing the door body 20 protrudes from the side of the locking piece 31 facing the door body 20, so as to provide a better sealing effect and force. The elastic member 40 can be a ring extending along the edge of the box body 10 on the side facing the door body 20, and the elastic member 40 is provided in multiple directions of the outer circumference of the locking member 30 to ensure the reliability of the elastic member 40 in providing the force that causes the limiting section 12 and the locking piece 31 to press against each other, and can play a sealing role.
