Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pet products, in particular to a pet drying box with an automatically open door. Background Art
[0002] A pet drying box is a device used to dry a pet's hair after bathing and grooming. It usually includes a box body and a door body. There is a ventilation system inside the box, which adopts a combination of internal and external circulation to circulate air in the box, thereby drying the pet's fur. When drying the pet's hair, the door body is usually closed to prevent the pet from running out of the box during the drying process and affecting the drying effect.
[0003] Existing doors are usually opened and closed manually, and users are required to manually open the door after drying the pet's hair. Therefore, when using the pet drying box, users are required to stay next to the pet drying box at all times and open the door in time after drying to avoid hypoxia of the pet due to the closure of the ventilation system. However, for some pets with larger bodies and more hair, the drying time is usually longer, and users are likely to leave in the middle and fail to open the door in time, which is easy to cause certain harm to the pet. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the defects of the above prior art and provide a pet drying box which can automatically open the door after the pet is dried.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is to provide a pet drying box with an automatically opening door having the following structure:
[0006] It comprises a box body and a door body, an opening is arranged on the front end surface of the box body, a door frame is connected to the opening, one end of the door body is hinged to the door frame, and the other end is detachably connected to the door frame through a locking piece, so as to open or close the opening; the locking piece is rotatably connected to the door body, a hook is arranged at one end of the locking piece facing the door frame, a slot is arranged at a position of the door frame corresponding to the hook, and the hook is engaged in the slot; an electric drive component is also arranged on the box body, and the electric drive component is transmission-connected with the locking piece, so as to drive the locking piece to rotate and disengage the hook from the slot.
[0007] After adopting the above structure, the pet drying box with automatic door opening in the utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0008] When the drying time of the pet drying box ends, the controller inside the box will control the electric drive component to start, thereby driving the locking component to rotate, so that the hook on the locking component disengages from the card slot, automatically unlocking the door body, enabling the pet to walk out of the pet drying box immediately without the user having to stay by the pet drying box all the time, bringing a better user experience.
[0009] Preferably, a torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft of the locking component, one end of the torsion spring is connected to the door body, and the other end is connected to the locking component.
[0010] After the door body is closed, the torsion spring can force the hook to be clamped in the card slot. Only when the user manually flips the locking component or the electric drive component drives the locking component can the hook disengage from the card slot, preventing the door body from automatically opening during the drying process.
[0011] Preferably, the electric drive component includes a linear motor and a transmission rod. The output end of the linear motor is connected to the transmission rod for driving the transmission rod to move up and down. A transmission tooth is provided at one end of the transmission rod facing the locking component, and a transmission groove is provided on the hook. When the door body is closed, the transmission tooth meshes with the transmission groove. A first guiding inclined surface is provided at the lower end of the transmission tooth, and a second guiding inclined surface is provided at the lower end of the transmission groove. The first guiding inclined surface and the second guiding inclined surface are arranged in parallel and are in contact with each other. When the linear motor drives the transmission rod to move downward, the transmission tooth drives the locking component to rotate outward through the transmission groove, and the hook disengages from the card slot.
[0012] When the drying is over, the controller will send a control signal to the linear motor to drive the transmission rod to move downward. At this time, the transmission teeth on the transmission rod move downward synchronously, and through the cooperation of the first guiding inclined surface and the second guiding inclined surface, the locking component is pushed outward, so that the locking component rotates outward, and finally the hook disengages from the card slot to complete the unlocking of the door body.
[0013] Preferably, there are two transmission teeth, which are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the transmission rod; there are also two transmission grooves, which correspond to the two transmission teeth one by one. This can better transmit power and enable the transmission teeth to push the locking component more easily.
[0014] Preferably, a groove is provided at one end of the locking component away from the hook, which is convenient for manually flipping the locking component.
[0015] Preferably, a positioning plate is provided at one end of the door body close to the locking component, and a positioning groove is provided at the position of the box body corresponding to the positioning plate; when the door body is closed, the positioning plate is located in the positioning groove.
[0016] Through the cooperation positioning of the positioning plate and the positioning groove, when the door body is closed, the transmission tooth and the transmission groove can just be meshed, which is convenient for subsequent automatic unlocking of the door body. Description of the Drawings

[0031] At the end of drying, the controller will send a control signal to the linear motor 41, so that the linear motor 41 drives the transmission rod 42 to move downward. At this time, the transmission teeth 43 on the transmission rod 42 move downward synchronously, and through the cooperation of the first guide bevel 431 and the second guide bevel 321, the locking member 3 is pushed outward, so that the locking member 3 rotates outward, and finally the hook 31 is disengaged from the slot 13, completing the unlocking of the door body 2.
[0032] There are two transmission teeth 43, which are spaced apart along the height direction of the transmission rod 42; there are also two transmission grooves 32, which correspond one-to-one to the two transmission teeth 43, so that power can be better transmitted and the transmission teeth 43 can push the locking member 3 more easily.
[0033] One end of the locking member 3 away from the hook 31 is provided with a groove 33, which facilitates the user to hold the locking member 3 by hand for manual flipping.
[0034] One end of the door body 2 close to the locking member 3 is provided with a positioning plate 21, and a positioning groove 14 is provided at a position corresponding to the positioning plate 21 on the box body 1; when the door body 2 is closed, the positioning plate 21 is located in the positioning groove 14. Through the cooperation and positioning of the positioning plate 21 and the positioning groove 14, when the door body 2 is closed, the transmission gear 43 and the transmission groove 32 can be just meshed, which is convenient for subsequent automatic unlocking of the door body 2.
[0035] The above is only the specific implementation manner of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
