Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of pet products, and in particular to a pet placemat. Background Art

[0002] Most existing pet placemats utilize a single-layer, flat structure. Their primary purpose is to provide a separate dining area for pets, ensuring they don't spill food or water while eating or drinking. This reduces direct floor contamination, protecting the floor from food debris and water stains, while also providing a more comfortable and exclusive dining environment for pets. However, as people's needs for pets continue to diversify, the uses of pet placemats have expanded, such as providing a relatively soft and cleanable area for pets to rest and play. However, these functions remain secondary to their core function of providing pets with meals.

[0003] Existing pet placemats have a simple structure, usually in the form of a single-layer flat plate, made of soft sponge, fiber material or silicone. Although this design provides a certain degree of comfort and basic protection, it exposes many shortcomings in actual use. First, during the meal, the pet's food or water can easily overflow beyond the edge of the placemat, and even scatter onto the surrounding ground, causing the ground to be contaminated as well, failing to effectively achieve the purpose of cleaning and protecting the ground. This is mainly because existing pet placemats lack sufficient edge design and cannot effectively control the overflow of food residues and liquids. Especially when pets are eating more actively, the protective ability of ordinary flat-plate structure placemats is extremely limited, and splashing of food and water is difficult to avoid, which increases the cleaning burden on pet owners.

[0004] Secondly, existing placemats pose great challenges in terms of cleaning and maintenance. Although single-layer flat structural materials are more comfortable for pets, these materials easily absorb stains and odors, especially after being contaminated by food or drinking water. The placemats will quickly absorb these dirt, making cleaning extremely difficult. Most placemats are relatively large and made of thick materials. It is difficult to use washing machines and other equipment directly for cleaning, and they can usually only be cleaned by hand washing. However, hand washing is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also because of the thick material, moisture and stains are difficult to completely remove. Over time, the placemats are prone to accumulate bacteria and produce odors, which will have an adverse effect on the health of pets and the overall environmental hygiene of the family.

[0005] Furthermore, existing pet placemats fail to adequately consider the unique eating habits of pets, particularly their active behavior while eating. Pets may frequently move, chew, or even engage in small-scale play in the dining area. Existing single-layer flat placemats lack sufficient stability and edge protection, resulting in a less-than-ideal dining experience for pets. Furthermore, the placemats themselves are easily moved or rolled up, further exacerbating the problem of floor contamination.

[0006] In view of these shortcomings, it is particularly important to develop a new type of pet placemat. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this application is to overcome at least one of the shortcomings of the prior art and to provide a pet placemat that has a multi-layer structure that is easy to disassemble and clean, and at the same time adds a retaining edge structure, which can effectively prevent the scattering of food residues and dirt, reduce the difficulty of indoor cleaning, and improve household hygiene.

[0008] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present application discloses a pet placemat, which includes a main body and a retaining portion located at the outer edge area of ​​the main body; wherein the main body includes a first layer located below and a second layer located above the first layer, and the first layer and the second layer are detachable; wherein the first layer and / or the second layer are connected to the retaining portion, so that at least one side of the pet placemat has a retaining edge.

[0009] As an optional technical solution, the second layer is a waterproof layer or a hydrophobic layer. By removing and cleaning the second layer, the pet placemat can be cleaned quickly and efficiently.

[0010] As an optional technical solution, the first layer has a supporting core or filler, which provides structural support and a certain thickness and elasticity to meet the comfort requirements.

[0011] As an optional technical solution, the second layer is attached to the first layer and cooperates with the first layer to form the pet placemat body. The outer edge of the first layer extends upward to form a stopper, which is also used to assist in fixing the first layer.

[0012] As an optional technical solution, the second layer and the first layer are detachably connected through a snap-on structure. The snap-on structure is one or a combination of a clip, a through buckle, a snap buckle, and an insert buckle. The second layer is connected and fixed to the first layer through the snap-on structure.

[0013] As an optional technical solution, the second layer and the first layer are detachably connected by a strap, wherein the second layer and the second layer are provided with openings relative to each other, and the first layer and the second layer are fastened by a strap passing through the opening.

[0014] As an optional technical solution, the baffle is fixed on the first layer and a recess is provided on the side of the baffle, so that the baffle cooperates with the first layer to form a groove with an open side, and the second layer is horizontally inserted into the groove from the open mouth of the groove, so that the second layer is embedded in the first layer.

[0015] As an optional technical solution, the first layer and the second layer are detachably connected by magnetic attraction, wherein the first layer and the second layer are respectively provided with relative magnetic blocks and iron sheets.

[0016] As an optional technical solution, the first layer and the second layer are detachably connected and matched by Velcro.

[0017] As an optional technical solution, the second layer is a flexible fabric layer, which is easy to remove and clean.

[0018] As an optional technical solution, the first layer is a silicone layer, which utilizes the material properties of the silicone layer itself to meet the needs of structural support and comfort.

[0019] As an optional technical solution, there are multiple second layers, and the multiple second layers can be independently separated from the first layer. Through the setting of multiple second layers, it is convenient to remove local areas for cleaning as needed, which can achieve more targeted cleaning and reduce cleaning workload.

[0020] As an optional technical solution, the second layer is a water-absorbing layer made of a water-absorbing material.

[0021] As an optional technical solution, the second layer and the first layer are spaced apart and cooperated to form a cavity for storing food residues. Correspondingly, the second layer is provided with a plurality of openings for food residues.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. Easy to clean and maintain: It adopts a detachable multi-layer structure design, in which the second layer can be disassembled and cleaned separately. In particular, the use of the waterproof layer significantly simplifies the cleaning process, improves cleaning efficiency, and reduces the burden on users.

[0039] The present disclosure will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate several embodiments of the present disclosure. However, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be presented in many different ways and is not limited to the embodiments described below; in fact, the embodiments described below are intended to make the present disclosure more complete and fully illustrate the scope of protection of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art. It should also be understood that the embodiments disclosed herein can be combined in various ways to provide many additional embodiments.

[0040] It should be understood that like reference numerals refer to like elements throughout the drawings. In the drawings, the dimensions of some features may be distorted for clarity.

[0041] It should be understood that the terms used in the specification are only used to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present disclosure. All terms (including technical and scientific terms) used in the specification have the meanings commonly understood by those skilled in the art unless otherwise defined. For the sake of brevity and / or clarity, the techniques, methods and equipment known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the techniques, methods and equipment should be considered part of the authorized specification.

[0042] As used in this specification, the singular forms "a," "an," "said," and "the" include the plural forms unless otherwise expressly stated. The terms "include," "comprise," and "contain" as used in this specification indicate the presence of the claimed features, but do not exclude the presence of one or more additional features. The term "and / or" as used in this specification includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items. Example 1:

[0043] Refer to the attached Figure 1 and 2 This embodiment relates to a pet placemat, which includes a main body 1 and a retaining portion 2 located at the outer edge of the main body 1. The main body 1 is composed of a first layer 101 and a second layer 102. The first layer 101 is located at the bottom, while the second layer 102 is located above the first layer 101. The two layers are connected together in a detachable manner, which can achieve flexible and convenient use and cleaning functions.

[0044] In this structure, the retaining element 2 is positioned along the outer edge of the main body 1, creating a retaining edge on at least one side of the pet placemat. This effectively prevents food residue and other contaminants from being scattered during pet activities. The various components are connected and coordinated through various structural methods, ensuring a stable overall structure that is easy to disassemble and clean, making it suitable for daily use by pets in a domestic environment.

[0045] In terms of structure, the main body 1 comprises a first layer 101 and a second layer 102 stacked on top of each other. The first layer 101 provides support and is typically made of a high-strength and resilient material, such as rigid foam, silicone, or other cushioning material. This material provides excellent support and a stable, comfortable foundation. This design eliminates discomfort for pets caused by uneven surfaces or uneven force, enhancing the user experience.

[0046] In addition, in an optimized embodiment, the first layer 101 may also include a support core or filler to further enhance its elasticity and softness, providing greater comfort while ensuring support. The support core can be made of environmentally friendly materials, which not only meets environmental standards but also ensures the health of the pet.

[0047] The second layer 102 is an absorbent layer located on the first layer 101. Its primary function is to absorb liquid stains left by pets when they move on the mat, preventing the liquid from spreading and thus improving the cleaning effect of the pet placemat. The second layer 102 is made of highly absorbent materials, such as microfiber cloth or absorbent cotton. These materials have excellent water absorption properties and can quickly absorb and lock in liquids, reducing liquid contamination. They are also soft and suitable for daily use by pets. The second layer 102, bonded to the first layer 101, forms the main body 1 of the pet placemat. This not only effectively protects the underlying support layer but also provides a comfortable and easy-to-maintain surface for pets.

[0048] Based on the above structure, more specifically, the barrier 2 is located at the outer edge of the body 1 and is integrated with the upwardly extending portion of the outer edge of the first layer 101. The barrier 2 is typically made of a material with a certain degree of hardness and flexibility, such as silicone or soft plastic, to ensure that it can effectively block scattered food residue without causing harm to pets.

[0049] When the baffle 2 and the first layer 101 are not an integral structure, the portion where the baffle 2 is connected to the first layer 101 has a certain fixed structure, such as a groove fit or a snap-fit ​​fixation, to ensure that the baffle 2 will not fall off due to impact or friction when the pet is eating or playing.

[0050] In actual use of the barrier 2, when a pet eats on the mat, its edge structure can effectively control the fallen debris within the surface of the mat, preventing it from scattering on the floor, thereby reducing the owner's cleaning burden.

[0051] In practice, the pet placemat offers exceptional flexibility. Users can remove the second layer 102 for cleaning as needed. If the pet placemat becomes contaminated with food residue or liquid, they only need to remove the second layer 1-2 and rinse or wipe it, without having to clean the entire placemat. This design significantly reduces the difficulty and frequency of daily cleaning, extending the lifespan of the pet placemat. Furthermore, if a specific area of ​​the pet placemat is severely contaminated, users can simply remove and clean that area without having to clean the entire placemat, significantly improving cleaning efficiency.

[0052] The design of the entire pet placemat fully considers the diversity of pets' daily activities and their owners' needs for easy cleaning. Through the rational coordination of the first layer 101 and the second layer 102, and the effective barrier function of the baffle 2, the pet placemat is not only comfortable and durable, but also extremely easy to clean.

[0053] In actual usage scenarios, such as pets eating, chewing toys, or taking daily naps on the mat, pet mats can effectively provide a comfortable and safe activity area while ensuring the cleanliness of the surrounding environment.

[0054] The pet placemat described in this embodiment not only effectively integrates multiple functions in its design, but also enhances the overall user experience and convenience through the rational selection of materials and structural matching. Whether used in daily household settings or in pet shops, veterinary clinics, etc., this pet placemat can play its unique role, providing a more convenient and comfortable living experience for pets and their owners.

[0055] Example 2:

[0056] Refer to the attached Figure 3 In this embodiment, unlike the previously described embodiments, the first layer 101 and the second layer 102 are connected using a hook-and-loop structure to achieve detachable fit. This connection is achieved by providing corresponding hook-and-loop materials on the upper surface of the first layer 101 and the lower surface of the second layer 102, respectively. For example, the hook-and-loop structure of the first layer 101 and the velvet structure of the second layer 102 are used.

[0057] As can be understood, this Velcro connection method has the following significant features and advantages. First, its simple structural design ensures a stable connection between the first layer 101 and the second layer 102, while enabling quick assembly and disassembly, greatly improving user convenience. In daily use, when the second layer 102 needs to be cleaned, the user simply needs to gently separate the Velcro to complete the removal, without the need for additional tools, thus saving time and effort.

[0058] Furthermore, Velcro is typically made of nylon or polyester, which are not only highly durable and tear-resistant, but also flexible enough to withstand the pull of pets during their movements. Choosing the right Velcro strength grade ensures a secure connection while preventing over-adhesion that can make removal difficult.

[0059] During installation, users simply align the velvet Velcro of the second layer 102 with the hook-surface Velcro of the first layer 101 and gently press to achieve a secure connection. Because Velcro offers a certain degree of adjustability, users can fine-tune the position of the second layer 102 as needed to ensure a perfect fit with the first layer 101. This integrated structure not only maintains the integrity and functionality of the pet placemat but also further enhances its applicability.

[0060] At the same time, in order to meet the diverse needs of different users, this embodiment can also use an alternative technical solution, that is, a magnetic structure is used to achieve a detachable connection between the first layer 101 and the second layer 102. The application of the magnetic structure can further improve the convenience of the connection method and the stability of the structure.

[0061] Specifically, in a design employing a magnetic attraction structure, several magnets are embedded in the upper surface of the first layer 101, while an iron sheet or another set of magnets is positioned in corresponding locations on the lower surface of the second layer 102. The magnetic attraction between the magnets, or between the magnets and the iron sheet, ensures a secure connection between the first and second layers 101, 102. During installation, the user simply aligns the second layer 102 with the magnets on the first layer 101 and gently places it. The two automatically align and connect through magnetism, without the need for additional force or adjustment.

[0062] The use of a magnetic structure also has significant advantages. First, the magnetic connection method is not limited by the frequency of use. Regardless of the number of times it is disassembled and assembled, the magnetic adsorption force remains consistent, ensuring stable connection strength. Second, this connection method is not affected by surface conditions. For example, even if there is a certain amount of dirt on the surface of the first layer 101 or the second layer 102, the magnetic structure can still achieve a reliable connection. In addition, the magnetic structure allows users to quickly align at any angle during installation, a feature that further enhances operational flexibility and efficiency.

[0063] By introducing a magnetic structure, this embodiment provides users with a more efficient and stable connection option. Whether using Velcro or a magnetic structure, the connection method between the first layer 101 and the second layer 102 is highly adaptable and can meet the needs of different usage scenarios. In summary, through the above-mentioned diverse connection methods, this embodiment significantly optimizes the assembly and disassembly process of the pet placemat, further enhancing the product's convenience and user experience.

[0064] Example 3:

[0065] Refer to the attached Figure 4-6 In this embodiment, the first layer 101 and the second layer 102 are connected using a snap-fit ​​mechanism to achieve a removable connection. The snap-fit ​​mechanism can be a clip, buckle, or plug-in buckle, or a combination thereof, ensuring both stability and flexibility. This snap-fit ​​mechanism allows for quick and secure connection, while also facilitating removal and reinstallation. This design meets the needs of diverse usage scenarios, enhancing the convenience and reliability of the pet placemat in daily use.

[0066] For example, during implementation, Figure 4 In the clip structure shown, a clip 103 is provided at the edge area of ​​the first layer 101. The clip 103 has two elastically expandable clamping arms or clips, and forms a stable main body 1 structure by clamping the edge areas of the stacked first 101 and second layers 102.

[0067] As another solution, for example, a snap-fit ​​structure (not shown in the accompanying drawings) can be employed. Specifically, multiple protrusions are provided on the edge of the first layer 101. Each protrusion is conical or cylindrical and has an elastic edge. Corresponding positions on the second layer 102 are provided with a plurality of retaining grooves, shaped to match the protrusions. During installation, the retaining grooves of the second layer 102 are aligned with the protrusions of the first layer 101. Applying a certain amount of pressure forces the elastic edges of the protrusions into the retaining grooves. After insertion, the protrusions return to their original shape, firmly engaging the locking portion of the retaining grooves.

[0068] The buckle design not only provides an automatic locking function to ensure a secure connection, but also allows the user to disassemble the part by releasing the protrusion with external force.

[0069] As another solution, during implementation, Figure 5 The illustrated buckle structure features a detachable socket 104, located at the edge of the first layer 101. Socket 104 consists of an outer frame and a socket or inner cavity. The second layer 102 features a detachable plug 105, a rod-shaped structure with a wedge-shaped front end that mates with the socket or inner cavity of socket 104. During installation, plug 105 is inserted into the socket or inner cavity of socket 104. Once fully inserted, a stable connection is established. During disassembly, plug 105 can be easily removed by pulling on it.

[0070] It is understandable that in this embodiment, the design of the three structural forms of clip, buckle and plug-in buckle fully considers the diverse needs of users in actual usage scenarios. The clip structure is suitable for quick disassembly and assembly scenarios with simple and efficient connection; the buckle structure provides fine-tuning capabilities while maintaining connection strength, suitable for changing installation needs; the plug-in buckle structure is suitable for scenarios with high requirements for connection security with high stability. Figure 4 , Attachment Figure 5 、 6 The application of these snap-on structures enables pet placemats to achieve an excellent balance in functionality, convenience and applicability, significantly improving the overall user experience.

[0071] Example 4:

[0072] Refer to the attached Figure 6 In this embodiment, the first layer 101 and the second layer 102 are connected by a strap structure to achieve a detachable connection. Specifically, the second layer 102 is provided with multiple openings at corresponding positions relative to the first layer 101. The number and position of the openings are precisely designed to ensure that the strap 106 can pass through to securely bind the first layer 101 and the second layer 102 together.

[0073] The strap structure is connected by the following steps: the user passes one end of the strap 106 through an opening in the first layer 101 and then through the corresponding opening in the second layer 102, forming a binding path. The ends of the strap 106 are then tightened or tied to ensure a tight connection between the two layers. This binding design allows the second layer 102 to be securely attached to the first layer 101 while allowing for easy undoing for quick removal when needed.

[0074] To enhance the secure fit and ease of use of the strap structure, the strap 106 can include a locking feature, such as a buckle or sliding adjustment buckle at the end of the strap 106. This ensures that the strap automatically locks after tightening, preventing it from loosening. Furthermore, to improve durability, the edges of the openings in the first and second layers 101, 102 can be specially treated, such as with reinforced stitching or hemming, to prevent tearing or deformation of the openings due to tension during prolonged use. This design further enhances the stability and durability of the structure.

[0075] In practice, the flexibility of this strap connection offers significant advantages. Users can adjust the tightness of the strap 106 as needed, thereby controlling the fit between the first layer 101 and the second layer 102 to meet functional requirements in different scenarios. For example, when a firmer support is needed, the strap can be tightened to achieve a closer connection. During routine cleaning or maintenance, users can simply untie the strap to easily separate the two layers, making operation simple and efficient.

[0076] The strap structure of this embodiment is particularly suitable for applications that require frequent assembly and disassembly and adjustment. Compared to the buckle, clip, and insert buckle structures in the previous embodiments, the strap structure is more flexible, maintaining a secure connection while providing greater operational freedom, further optimizing the applicability and user experience of the pet placemat. Example 5:

[0077] In this embodiment, by optimizing the structural design of the blocking portion 2 , the second layer 102 is installed in conjunction with the first layer 101 in a card-insertion manner.

[0078] First, it should be understood that the basis for using the above structure is that the second layer 102 has a structural hardness, that is, it is not soft cloth, and can be a laminated structure with a silicone layer, a rubber layer or similar materials.

[0079] Specifically, in some embodiments, referring to the attached Figure 7 The edge of the first layer 101 is fixed with a stopper 2, which has a recessed portion (not visible in the figure) on its side. Together with the first layer 101, it forms an open-sided channel structure. The channel's inner diameter and shape are precisely designed to match the edge of the second layer 102, allowing the second layer 102 to be inserted horizontally into the channel in a card-like manner and securely secured by the channel's clamping action.

[0080] The second layer 102 is installed by aligning its edge with the opening of the channel and pushing it horizontally into the channel. During insertion, the recessed portion of the stop 2 provides a reliable guide, ensuring smooth insertion of the second layer 102. Furthermore, the shape of the channel's inner wall perfectly matches the edge of the second layer 102. Once inserted, the second layer 102 is gripped at multiple points by the channel, maintaining a secure position during use and preventing it from slipping or falling off.

[0081] A notable feature of this plug-in connection is that its structural design ensures a secure fit between the two layers without the need for additional connectors. To remove the second layer, the user simply pulls it out horizontally in the opposite direction of insertion – a simple and quick process that requires no tools. This design not only enhances the overall ease of use of the pet placemat but also provides greater efficiency during daily cleaning and maintenance.

[0082] As can be seen from the accompanying drawings, the recessed design of the stopper 2 provides a clear path for inserting the second layer while ensuring the channel's clamping strength. The integrated structure of the stopper 2 and the first layer 101 enhances the overall stability of the channel, further improving the durability and safety of the pet placemat. In practical applications, whether for pets' daily activities or users' cleaning operations, this card-type structure fully demonstrates its stability, flexibility, and efficiency.

[0083] In other embodiments, refer to the attached Figure 8 The blocking portion 2 and the first layer 101 are not an integrated structure, but the blocking portion 2 is also connected to the first layer 101 through a slot structure, which makes the overall structure more flexible and free, and more conducive to production. At the same time, the above structure also allows the blocking portion 2 to be removed and cleaned.

[0084] In summary, this embodiment, through structural innovation, achieves a close fit between the second layer 102 and the first layer 101 in a card-like manner, optimizing the connection and significantly enhancing the user experience. This design fully considers the convenience and stability requirements during use, providing greater practical value for the pet placemat.

[0085] Example 6:

[0086] Refer to the attached Figure 9 In this embodiment, the first layer 101 and the second layer 102 are designed to be spaced apart and fit together, forming a cavity 3 specifically for storing food residue. Accordingly, the second layer 102 is provided with a plurality of openings 4 on its surface for collecting food residue. The number, size, and distribution of these openings 4 are carefully designed to ensure that food residue can pass through the openings 4 quickly and smoothly into the cavity 3, while preventing residue from accumulating on the mat surface.

[0087] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the function and material design of the second layer 102 are optimized for the needs of pet placemats. Specifically, the second layer 102 is made of a waterproof material, endowed with the functional properties of a waterproof layer, effectively blocking liquids left behind by pets during meals, such as spilled drinking water or moistened food residue, while ensuring that liquid flows smoothly into the cavity 3, facilitating subsequent cleaning. The waterproof material is selected to exhibit excellent water resistance and durability, ensuring it can withstand the frequent use and cleaning requirements of pet placemats.

[0088] When pets dine, food residue that falls directly into the cavity 3 through the openings 4 in the second layer 102, keeping the upper surface of the placemat clean and preventing it from scattering on the floor, significantly reducing cleanup effort. Furthermore, the waterproofing of the second layer 102 effectively blocks spilled liquid, allowing it to flow through the openings into the cavity 3 without spreading across the surface or penetrating into the first layer 101, improving overall hygiene and user experience.

[0089] This spaced-together design also makes maintenance easy. To clean, the user simply removes the second layer 102 from the first layer 101, dumps or cleans out any debris in the cavity 3, and then simply rinses or wipes the second layer 102. Compared to traditional designs, this structure significantly reduces cleaning time and effort while extending the lifespan of the pet placemat.

[0090] By designing the second layer 102 as a waterproof layer, combined with the spaced-apart structure of the storage cavity 3 and the opening 4, this embodiment fully meets the multiple needs of pet dining: preventing the spread of contamination, reducing the cleaning burden, and improving hygiene. This optimized design for pet placemats further demonstrates the innovative value and technical advantages of this utility model.
