DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 7As shown, a pet cage that is easy to assemble comprises a chassis 1, a bottom frame and a top frame arranged above and below, a column 2 and a baffle 6 are provided between the bottom frame and the top frame, a cage cover 3 is hinged on the top frame, a lock such as a latch can be provided between the cage cover 3 and the top frame to facilitate opening and closing of the cage cover 3, cage holes can be provided on the baffle 6 and the cage cover 3 to facilitate ventilation; the bottom frame is surrounded by a plurality of bottom cross bars 4, and each of the bottom cross bars 4 is sequentially arranged at the periphery of the chassis 1 and fixedly connected to the chassis 1, and the bottom cross bars 4 can be fixed to the chassis 1 by glue; the specific structure can be that each of the bottom cross bars 4 is provided with a supporting edge on the inner side, and the side edge of the chassis 1 is placed on each supporting edge and fixed by glue. It is also possible to adopt the method of providing a connecting groove 24 on the inner side of each of the bottom cross bars 4, and inserting the side edge of the chassis 1 into the connecting groove 24 on each bottom cross bar 4 and fixing it by gluing; the top frame is surrounded by the top cross bars 5 corresponding to each bottom cross bar 4, and at least the top cross bars on the left and right sides of the top cross bars 5 are provided with a supporting plate 23 extending from the inner side to support the cage cover 3 when the cage cover 3 is closed; the bottom end of each of the uprights 2 is respectively located between the ends of adjacent bottom cross bars 4, and the top end of each of the uprights 2 is respectively located between the ends of the corresponding top cross bars 5, and each end of each of the uprights 2 is respectively provided with a fixing member 9 that fixes the upright 2 to the adjacent bottom cross bars 4 and the adjacent top cross bars 5 by plugging. The number of baffles 6 corresponds to the number of bottom crossbars 4 and top crossbars 5, and they are respectively positioned between the corresponding bottom crossbars 4 and top crossbars 5. The front baffles 6 are provided with door openings, and a cage door 7 is hingedly connected to the baffles 6 below the door opening. A cage door lock 8 is provided between the upper end of the cage door 7 and the baffles 6, facilitating the removal and placement of feeding utensils, thereby improving the convenience of using the pet cage. Each fixing member 9 simultaneously connects and secures the bottom crossbar 4, top crossbar 5, and uprights 2 together, reducing the number of bolts required to secure each crossbar to the uprights 2. This improves the ease of assembly and the connection and restraint performance between the three. Each fixing member 9 is separately connected and secured to the bottom crossbar 4, top crossbar 5, and uprights 2 at each connection point of the pet cage frame. This allows the bottom crossbar 4, top crossbar 5, and uprights 2 to be simultaneously connected and secured together at each mating connection point via a single fixing member 9, improving the ease of assembly and the connection and restraint performance between the three. The chassis 1 is an aluminum-plastic plate, the bottom crossbar 4, the top crossbar 5 and the column 2 are all made of aluminum alloy, the fixing member 9 is made of plastic material, and the baffle 6 is made of acrylic material. The pet cage made in this way has a strong and light structure and is easy to transport and use.

[0025] like Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the fixing member 9 can be used to include a connector 10, a plug-in body 11 protruding from one side of the connector 10, and an insertion port 12 for plugging with the plug-in body 11 at the top and bottom of the column 2, respectively, to facilitate the connection and fixation between the connector 10 and the column 2. The connector 10 is provided with connecting wings 14 on both sides that extend toward the adjacent bottom crossbar 4 or top crossbar 5, and at least one connecting column 15 is protruding from the surface of the connecting wing 14 on the same side as the plug-in body 11. The bottom crossbar 4 and the top crossbar 5 are respectively provided with a plug-in hole 16 for plugging with the connecting column 15. The arrangement of the plug-in body 11 on the connector 10 and the connecting columns 15 on the two connecting wings 14 makes the connector 10, the two connecting wings 14, the plug-in body 11, and the connecting columns 15 form an integrated structure. In this way, the fixed connection between the column 2 and the adjacent two bottom crossbars 4 or two top crossbars 5 can be achieved at one time, which improves the mutual restraint between the three and makes the connection between the three more secure.

[0026] Likewise Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the fixing member 9 can also be adopted to include a connecting body 10, a plug-in body 11 is protruding from the surface of one side of the connecting body 10, and connecting columns 15 are protruding from both sides of the plug-in body 11, and a mounting hole for installing a bottom wheel 17 is provided on the surface of the other side of the connecting body 10, and the top and bottom ends of the column 2 are respectively provided with plug-in interfaces 12 for plugging with the plug-in body 11, and the bottom cross bar 4 and the top cross bar 5 are respectively provided with plug-in holes 16 for plugging with the connecting columns 15; the upper and lower sides of the connecting body 10 are respectively provided with outer wings 18 extending along the outer side of the column 2.

[0027] The two structures of the above-mentioned fixing parts 9 allow the pet cage to have different structures and can be used in different pet breeding environments: if the pet cage is placed for a long time without moving, each fixing part 9 can use the fixing part 9 with two connecting wings 14 to assemble the pet cage; if the pet cage needs to be moved frequently, the fixing part 9 on the bottom frame can use the fixing part 9 with outer stop wings 18 to assemble the pet cage, and then install the bottom wheels 17 through the mounting holes to move the pet cage by the bottom wheels 17; if more than two pet cages need to be stacked for use, the fixing part 9 on the top frame of the lower pet cage can use the fixing part 9 with outer stop wings 18, and the fixing part 9 on the bottom frame of the upper pet cage can use the fixing part 9 with two connecting wings 14. When stacking, it is only necessary to place the bottom frame of the upper pet cage inside the fixing parts 9 with outer stop wings 18 on the top frame of the lower pet cage. The outer stop wings 18 are both beautiful and play a positioning role for the stacked pet cages to prevent the stacked pet cages from moving horizontally. In addition, a through cavity 13 communicating with the top and bottom ends can be provided inside the column 2, and both ends of the through cavity 13 also serve as the insertion ports 12 at the top and bottom ends of the column 2. In this way, the column 2 is hollow and light, making the pet cage more portable.

[0028] like Figure 3 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the top and bottom ends of the column 2 are respectively plugged into and matched with the ends of the top crossbar 5 and the bottom crossbar 4. That is, slots are respectively provided at the top and bottom ends of the column 2, and the ends of the top crossbar 5 and the bottom crossbar 4 are inserted into the slots, further improving the reliability of the connection between the column 2 and the top crossbar 5 and the bottom crossbar 4. In addition, plug-in slots 19 are respectively provided on both sides of the column 2 to plug-in and match with the two side edges of the baffle 6. The two side edges of the baffle 6 are respectively inserted into the corresponding plug-in slots 19, and the two ends of the plug-in slots 19 can be connected to the slots at the top and bottom ends of the column 2 and connect the top and bottom ends of the column 2. In this way, the baffle 6 can be inserted into the plug-in slots 19 of the column 2 that has been connected to the bottom frame through the top end of the column 2, which facilitates the assembly of the baffle. To ensure the top and bottom crossbars 5 and 4 fit into the slots and uprights 2, wings 20 extend from the top and bottom of the top and bottom crossbars 5 and 4, respectively. After insertion, the wings 20 block the outer ends of the uprights 2, facilitating the fit of the top and bottom crossbars 5 and 4 with the uprights 2. Connecting grooves 21 are provided on the top and bottom sides of the bottom crossbars 4 and 5, respectively, to mate with the bottom and top edges of the baffles 6. The bottom and top edges of the baffles 6 are inserted into corresponding connecting grooves 21. The inner sides of each baffle 6 can be glued to the connecting grooves 21 of the top crossbar 5, enhancing the reliability and stability of the connection. A ridge 22 protrudes from the outer wall of the connecting grooves 21, resting against the baffles 6. This ensures a tighter connection between the baffles 6 and the top and bottom crossbars 5 and 4, and a more stable relative position.

As shown in FIG, a specific embodiment of the pet cage of the present invention, the chassis 1, the bottom frame and the top frame are square, the top cross bar 5, the bottom cross bar 4 and the column 2 are respectively four, the baffle 6 is four, the four fixing members 9 on the top frame use fixing members 9 with two connecting wings 14, and the four fixing members 9 on the bottom frame use fixing members 9 with outer baffle wings 18. The chassis 1 is an aluminum-plastic plate, the top cross bar 5, the bottom cross bar 4 and the column 2 are all made of aluminum alloy material, the baffle 6 is made of acrylic material, and the fixing members 9 are all made of plastic material; the four bottom cross bars 4 are fixed to the four sides of the chassis 1 by gluing to form a chassis 1 frame, and then the fixing members 9 with outer baffle wings 18 and bottom wheels 17 are installed on the corners of the four bottom cross bars 4. The connecting column 15 on the fixing member 9 is inserted upward into the plug hole 16 on the bottom cross bar 4, and the fixing member 9 and the bottom are inserted. When the cross bar 4 is plugged in, glue can be added for bonding to improve the connection reliability. Then, the posts 2 are respectively inserted into the plug-in bodies 11 of the four fixing members 9, and the ends of the bottom cross bar 4 are snapped into the slots at the bottom ends of the posts 2 to form a mortise and tenon positioning structure, so that the slots at the bottom ends of the posts 2 firmly frame the ends of the bottom cross bar 4; then the tops of the baffles 6 are respectively inserted into the connecting grooves 21 on the bottom sides of the top cross bar 5 and fixed with glue on the inside, and then each baffle 6 is respectively inserted downward into the plug-in grooves 19 of the adjacent posts 2 until the bottom of the baffle 6 is inserted into the connecting grooves 21 on the top side of the bottom cross bar 4, and then the plug-in bodies 11 and the connecting posts 15 of the fixing members 9 with two connecting wings 14 are respectively inserted into the plug-in holes 16 of the top cross bar 5 and the plug-in interfaces 12 at the top ends of the posts 2, and the corner gaps at the posts 2 are covered by the connectors 10 on the fixing members 9, and finally the cage cover 3 is installed, and the pet cage is assembled.
