[0026] Typical embodiments embodying the features and advantages of this utility model will be described in detail in the following description. It should be understood that this utility model can have various variations in different embodiments, all of which do not depart from the scope of this utility model, and the descriptions and illustrations therein are for illustrative purposes only and not intended to limit this utility model.
[0027] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this application, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0028] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0029] Please refer to the following first. Figure 1 This utility model provides a pet food mat 10 for pets to lick to increase saliva secretion, relieve stress, and massage the tongue. Water is placed inside the pet food mat 10, and the pet can only lick the water out with its tongue, which can effectively prolong the pet's drinking time and make it convenient to bathe or groom the pet.
[0030] It should be noted that pets can be animals such as cats and dogs.
[0031] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the pet placemat 10 is a one-piece molded soft rubber mat.
[0032] It should be noted that the pet food mat 10 can be made of a single color or a mixture of multiple colors through injection molding.
[0033] It should be noted that the pet food mat 10 can be made of single color or multi-color injection molding foam.
[0034] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the pet food mat 10 is made of EVA. It is understood that in other embodiments, the pet food mat 10 may also be made of PVC, TPE, TPR, or silicone.
[0035] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pet food mat 10 includes a mat body 100 and a baffle 200. The baffle 200 surrounds the mat body 100 to prevent pet water from flowing out of the mat body. Water is placed inside the mat body 100, and the pet replenishes its water by licking the water on the mat body 100.
[0036] It should be noted that the surface of the mat 100 away from the baffle 200 has anti-slip texture. The uneven texture increases the friction between the ground and the pet mat 10, thus providing an anti-slip effect. It is understandable that the anti-slip texture could be omitted; for example, the mat 100 material itself could be used to prevent slippage. Any solution that prevents the mat 100 from slipping should be considered.
[0037] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mat 100 is equipped with multiple water-retaining columns 110, which are spaced apart and located on the side of the mat 100 where the baffle 200 is located. The water-retaining columns 110 cover the entire side of the mat 100 along its length and width, allowing the pet to lick the water-retaining columns 110 from any angle. When the user places water on the mat 100, the water adheres to the water-retaining columns 110, and the spacing between adjacent water-retaining columns 110 is small, so the pet can only replenish water by licking the water-retaining columns 110, effectively prolonging the pet's drinking time.
[0038] It should be noted that the distance between two adjacent water-blocking columns 110 is less than 10mm. Due to the small distance between the water-blocking columns 110, the pet's licking speed can be effectively controlled by the water-blocking columns 110, preventing the pet from licking all the water in the pad 100 too quickly or too slowly. It is understood that in other embodiments, the distance between two adjacent water-blocking columns 110 can also be set to other distances. For example, when sacrificing the licking control function, the distance between two adjacent water-blocking columns 110 can be set to less than 15mm. Any scheme that allows the pet to drink water by licking the water-blocking columns 110 should be protected.
[0039] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2It should be noted that the cross-section of the water-stop column 110 is elliptical. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the cross-section of the water-stop column 110 may also be rectangular, circular or irregular. This utility model does not specifically limit the shape of the cross-section of the water-stop column 110.
[0040] refer to Figure 3 It should be noted that the vertical cross-section of the water-stop column 110 is rectangular. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the vertical cross-section of the water-stop column 110 may also be a regular trapezoid, an inverted trapezoid, or an irregular shape. This utility model does not specifically limit the shape of the vertical cross-section of the water-stop column 110.
[0041] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The mat 100 is recessed inward on the side where the water-resistant column 110 is located to form a hanging groove 120. The bottom of the hanging groove 120 has a hanging hole 121. The pet food mat 10 is suspended from the supporting surface through the hanging hole 121. When the pet does not need water, the user can hang the pet food mat 10 using the hanging hole 121 to reduce the storage space occupied by the pet food mat 10. When the pet needs water, the pet food mat 10 can be placed on the ground or a table. It is convenient to operate. It is understandable that, if reducing the storage space of the pet food mat 10 is not a concern, the hanging hole 121 and the hanging groove 120 can be omitted; any solution that allows the pet food mat 10 to provide water for the pet should be protected.
[0042] It should be noted that the supporting surface includes, but is not limited to, cabinet surfaces, walls, and other locations.
[0043] Continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 On the side where the water-resistant column 110 is located, the edge of the mat 100 has a protrusion 130 shaped like a footprint. The protrusion 130 decorates the mat 100 and increases the aesthetics of the pet food mat 10. It is understandable that the protrusion 130 can be omitted if the aesthetics of the pet food mat 10 are not a concern.
[0044] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 It should be noted that the protrusion 130 includes a foot-shaped protrusion 131 and a plurality of toe-shaped protrusions 132 arranged around the foot-shaped protrusion 131. The aforementioned hanging groove 120 is arranged on the side of the foot-shaped protrusion 131 away from the water-proof column 110, which reduces the material used for the foot-shaped protrusion 131 and lowers the production cost of the pet food mat 10.
[0045] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4It should be noted that in this embodiment, the number of toe-shaped protrusions 132 is set to four. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of toe-shaped protrusions 132 may also be set to three or five. This utility model does not specifically limit the number of toe-shaped protrusions 132.
[0046] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 The pad 100 is recessed inward toward the side where the water-resistant column 110 is located to form a gripping groove 140. The gripping groove 140 and the hanging groove 120 are respectively located at opposite ends of the pad 100 along its width direction. The gripping groove 140 is for human hand gripping. When a user needs to use the pet food pad 10 to feed their pet water, the user's hand can reach into the gripping groove 140 and grip the pet food pad 10, allowing the pet food pad 10 to be removed from the support position for easy gripping. It is understood that the gripping groove 140 can also be omitted; any solution that allows the pet food pad 10 to be gripped by the user should be protected.
[0047] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 It should be noted that the bottom of the grip groove 140 is provided with a second inclined surface 141, the normal of which is inclined to the thickness direction of the pad body 100. The pad body 100 is recessed inward toward the side where the water-resistant column 110 is provided to form the grip groove 140. Correspondingly, a protrusion 150 is formed on the side of the pad body 100 where the water-resistant column 110 is provided. By providing the second inclined surface 141, the area of the second inclined surface 141 of the protrusion 150 is increased. Merchants can design their own brand name on the second inclined surface 141, or users can ask merchants to print their desired words to customize a pet food mat 10 exclusively for their pets. It is understood that the second inclined surface 141 can also be omitted. Any design that includes a grip groove 140 in the pet food mat 10 should be protected.
[0048] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The baffle 200 is provided with a first inclined surface 210, the normal of which is inclined to the thickness direction of the pad 100.
[0049] In summary, in this application, the pet food mat 10 is a one-piece molded soft rubber mat. The pet food mat 10 includes a mat body 100 and a baffle 200. The mat body 100 is provided with multiple water-repellent columns 110, which effectively prevent water from sticking to the pet's feet and prevents the floor from getting wet, ensuring that the pet is clean and tidy. The baffle 200 forms a circle around the circumference of the mat body 100. The baffle 200 is provided with a first inclined surface 210, which allows the user to pour out wastewater along the first inclined surface, ensuring that the wastewater will not spill onto the ground during the pouring process.
[0050] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3It should be noted that in this embodiment, the baffle 200 is arranged in a trapezoidal shape, and the top of the baffle 200 is flat, which can prevent the top of the baffle 200 from scratching the pet and increase the safety of the pet using the pet food mat 10. It can be understood that, without considering the possibility that the top of the baffle 200 may scratch the pet, the baffle 200 can also be set as a triangular pyramid shape. Any design in which the baffle 200 is provided with a first inclined surface 210 should be protected.
[0051] It should be noted that the height of baffle 200 is greater than 100mm.
[0052] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 It should be noted that the corner formed by two adjacent baffles 200 is set as a smooth rounded corner 220, which can prevent the pet from being scratched by the corner of the baffle 200 and increase the safety of the pet using the pet food mat 10. It can be understood that if the safety of the pet food mat 10 is not considered, the rounded corner 220 can also be omitted. As long as the baffle 200 can form a circle around the circumference of the mat 100, it should be protected.
[0053] Although the present invention has been described with reference to several typical embodiments, it should be understood that the terminology used is descriptive and exemplary, and not restrictive. Since the present invention can be embodied in many forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the invention, it should be understood that the above embodiments are not limited to any of the foregoing details, but should be interpreted broadly within the spirit and scope defined by the appended claims.
