A support plate 1151 is provided on the corner connecting member 115, and the support plate 1151 can support the end corners of the top fence 112, that is, the side fence 111 is also connected to the top fence 111 through the corner connecting member 115.
[0031] The bottom of the side fence 111 of the fence 11 is fixedly mounted on the support leg 12. A cavity is provided in the fence 11, and a vacant space is provided on one of the side fences 111 of the fence 11. The fixed fence 13 is fixedly connected to the side fence 111 by welding, and the fixed fence 13 blocks part of the vacant space. An opening is provided adjacent to the fixed fence 13, that is, in the remaining space of the vacant space, and the opening is connected to the cavity.
[0032] The pet cage 1 further includes a bottom fence 14. The side fences 111 of the fence 11 are provided with a bottom support 1112 toward the center of the cavity. The bottom fence 14 is placed on the bottom support 1112. After being set, the bottom fence 14 is located in the cavity and can be used to support the pet in the cavity.
[0033] The pet cage also includes a tray 5. The bottom of the side fence 111 of the enclosure 11 is provided with a through hole. The tray 5 can be placed on the support legs 12. After the tray 5 is placed, it is located below the bottom fence 14. The size of the tray 5 matches the through hole. When needed, the tray 5 can pass through the through hole and be removed from the support legs 12. The tray 5 can be used to receive the pet's excrement on the bottom fence 14 or spilled food during eating.
[0034] The door frame 3 is fixedly mounted on the side fence 111 of the pet cage 1 with an opening, and a guide groove 31 is provided on the door frame 31. The cage door 2 is slidably arranged on the guide groove 31, and the cage door 2 can be located at the opening after being installed.
[0035] The lock 4 comprises a rotating member 41, a lock core 42, a lock base 43, and a spring 44. The lock base 42 is fixedly connected to the cage door 2 via bolts. The rotating member 41 is rotatably mounted on the lock base 43 via a collar. The rotating member 41 can only rotate on the lock base 43. The lock base 43 has a limiting hole, and the lock core 42 is disposed in the limiting hole, so that the lock core 42 can only move linearly on the lock base 43.
[0036] The rotating member 41 is provided with a groove, and a spiral hole 411 is provided on the side wall of the groove. A protrusion 421 is provided on the side of the lock core 42. The lock core 42 is embedded in the groove, and the protrusion 421 is movably provided in the spiral hole 411. A card slot 422 is provided at the other end of the lock core 42. The other end of the lock core 42 abuts against one end of the spring 44, and the other end of the spring 44 abuts against the rotating member 41.
[0037] The cage door 2 is provided with a first post 21, and the fixed fence 13 is provided with a second post 131. There can be multiple second posts 131. After the lock 4 is connected to the cage door 2, one first post 21 is locked in the locking slot 422. The user can also select any second post 131 to be locked in the locking slot 422 as needed, so that the pet cage 1 and cage door 2 can be locked in the locking slot 422 together. In addition, after the lock core 42 moves linearly, the locking slot 422 can be separated from the first post 21 and the second post 131.
[0038] When the pet cage is in use, the pet can be placed on the bottom support 1112 to be placed in the cavity of the pet cage body 1. By locking the first column 21 and the corresponding second column 131 together in the locking groove 422, the cage door 2 and the pet cage body 1 are relatively fixed, and the cage door 2 can effectively prevent the pet from escaping from the pet cage body 1.
[0039] When the cage door 2 needs to be opened, the rotary member 41 can be rotated. As the rotary member 41 rotates, the spiral hole 411 can move accordingly to drive the protrusion 421 to move, that is, the lock core 42 moves accordingly, so that the locking groove 422 on the lock core 42 can be separated from the first column 21 and the second column 131, that is, the pet cage 1 and the cage door 2 are no longer relatively fixed. At the same time, the spring 44 is compressed. At this time, the user can move the cage door 2 so that the cage door 2 moves on the guide groove 31 to open the cage door 2.
[0040] When the opening is completed, the cage door 2 is moved back to its original position, and the force applied to the rotary member 41 is stopped. At this time, the spring 44 pushes the lock core 42 to move by its elastic force, and the locking groove 422 can re-lock the first column 21 and the second column 131. At the same time, the movement of the lock core 42 will cause the protrusion 421 to move accordingly, and the protrusion 421 can push the rotary member 41 to rotate through the spiral hole 411, so that the rotary member 41 is reset.
[0041] Therefore, in the pet cage, the cage door 2 can be opened and closed without using keys or tools, which is simple to operate, convenient to use, and saves time and effort.
[0042] The above descriptions are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
