Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of pet supplies, and particularly relates to a cat teaser toy. Background Art

[0002] The cat tree is a fashionable pet supply. The multi-layer three-dimensional shape is more suitable for the climbing nature of cats. The hemp rope columns can allow pet cats to sharpen their claws and provide a space for pet cats to play to their heart's content. Pet cats like to climb and jump and are full of curiosity. For this reason, cat teaser balls are arranged on many cat trees. For example, the utility model patent technology with the publication number of CN205357656U and the name of multi-level cat tree disclosed by the Chinese Patent Office on July 6, 2016, has a cat teaser ball suspended on the connecting frame at the top; the utility model patent technology with the publication number of CN202489052U and the name of a multi-layer cat tree disclosed by the Chinese Patent Office on October 17, 2012, has a toy ball suspended at the bottom of the bar counter.

[0003] The cat teaser toys with the above structures are relatively simple in structure. They are directly suspended on the columns or bar counters through suspension ropes, and have the following defects in use:

[0004] 1) The cat teaser ball is suspended and installed through an ordinary suspension rope. When the pet cat jumps up to grab the cat teaser ball, the gravity of the whole body will be concentrated on the suspension rope. The deformation ability provided by the suspension rope is limited, so that the suspension rope is very easy to be pulled off, and the suspension rope has no buffering effect and is also easy to cause certain harm to the pet cat.

[0005] 2) The position of the cat teaser ball is fixed. After long-term use, the pet cat will lose interest in it. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a cat teaser toy which is convenient to disassemble and assemble, and the cat teaser ball is suspended by an arc-shaped bent rod and a spring, is not easy to be damaged and can provide sufficient buffering and deformation.

[0007] The utility model is realized by the following technical solutions:

[0008] That is, a cat teaser toy, which is characterized by comprising a base, a card seat, an arc-shaped bent rod, a spring and a cat teaser ball. The lower end of the arc-shaped bent rod is connected to the card seat, and the front end of the arc-shaped bent rod is connected to the cat teaser ball through a spring. A plurality of base clamping blocks evenly distributed in a circumferential direction are arranged on the outer side of the base. The card seat is a hollow cylindrical structure with an open bottom, and clamping blocks evenly distributed in a circumferential direction are arranged on the inner side of its cylinder wall. The gap between the base clamping blocks is greater than or equal to the length of the clamping blocks on the card seat.

[0009] The connection principle between the card seat and the base of the utility model is as follows:

[0010] The card holder set is mounted on the base. Initially, the card holder locking block is located in the gap between the base locking blocks. As the card holder continues to move downward, when the card holder reaches the lowest point, the upper end surface of the card holder locking block is flush with the lower end surface of the base locking block. Rotate the card holder by a certain angle so that the card holder locking block rotates below the base locking block, and the card holder and the base are clamped and connected together.

[0011] The card holder and the base of the present utility model are connected by manual rotation and clamping, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly without any tools.

[0012] The base of the present utility model is preferably mounted on the base of the cat tree through a bottom plate. In some cases, the base can also be mounted at other positions such as on a climbing post, at the bottom of a bar, or at the bottom of a perch.

[0013] The present utility model can mount the base at multiple positions on the cat tree and can change the position of the cat teaser ball irregularly. For a pet cat, the change in position will bring a sense of freshness.

[0014] The arc-shaped bent rod of the present utility model is preferably made of a material with a certain strength and toughness. For example, but not limited to, it is preferably made of the fishing rod materials of the prior art: fiberglass / carbon fiber / alloy fiber, etc. The lower end of the arc-shaped bent pipe is connected to the card holder through a bearing, and a bearing sleeve is provided at the lower end of the arc-shaped bent pipe, which is integrally or separately connected.

[0015] The present utility model abandons the suspension rope of the prior art and selects an arc-shaped bent rod and a spring to suspend the cat teaser ball. It has strong deformation ability, is not easily pulled off, and can also provide a good buffering effect on the pet cat to prevent it from being injured. The two ends of the spring of the present utility model are respectively provided with hanging rings. The front end of the arc-shaped bent rod and the spring are connected through a hanging ring, and the cat teaser ball and the spring are connected through a hanging ring.

[0016] The cat teaser ball of the present utility model is preferably, but not limited to, a plush ball common in the prior art.

[0017] Furthermore, a protruding anti-slip protrusion is provided on the lower end surface of the base locking block or the upper end surface of the card holder locking block of the present utility model.

[0018] By setting the anti-slip protrusion, the friction between the base locking block and the card holder locking block is increased, and the card holder can only be rotated by applying a certain force, preventing the card holder and the base from separating accidentally.

[0019] Furthermore, the arc-shaped bent rod of the present utility model is preferably an inverted L shape, and the horizontal part and the vertical part are connected by an arc transition.

[0020] The arc-shaped bent rod is in an L shape, and the cat teaser ball is located on one side of the vertical part of the rod body, leaving enough space for the pet cat to move and preventing the pet cat from hitting the vertical part of the rod body when scratching the cat teaser ball.

[0021] Further, the lower end of the arc-shaped bent rod of the present utility model is connected to the card seat through a bearing.

[0022] That is, the arc-shaped bent rod of the present utility model can rotate freely relative to the card seat. Without moving the arc-shaped bent rod, rotating the arc-shaped bent rod can change the position of the cat teaser ball within a certain range. Moreover, when the pet cat grabs the cat teaser ball, the arc-shaped bent rod rotates without driving the card seat to rotate, preventing the card seat from separating from the base.

[0023] Further, in the middle of the upper end of the card seat of the present utility model, there is a card seat middle column protruding upward, and a bearing is installed on the card seat middle column.

[0024] The present utility model has the advantages of reasonable structure, convenient, safe and not easily damaged use. When using the present utility model, the disassembly and assembly between the arc-shaped bent rod, the card seat and the base are convenient. When the pet cat jumps up to grab the cat teaser ball, the spring and the arc-shaped bent rod can provide sufficient deformation, are not easily damaged, and at the same time provide a good buffering effect on the pet cat.
