Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet supplies, and more specifically, to a pet cage door lock. Background Technology
[0002] When raising pets, pet cages are needed, and pet cage locks are needed. A pet cage lock is a device that locks the cage door. With the improvement of living standards, pet keeping is becoming more and more common. Most pets need to be kept in cages to prevent them from running away. With the continuous development of technology, people have higher and higher requirements for the manufacturing process of pet cage locks.
[0003] Pet cages are typically positioned in the middle, making the top and bottom corners of the cage door prone to deformation under external force, creating gaps; this is especially true for large dogs. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the technical problem that the top and bottom corners of a typical pet cage door are easily deformed by external forces when the door is positioned in the middle, thus creating gaps, one objective of this utility model is to provide a pet cage door lock.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, an embodiment of this utility model provides a pet cage door lock, including a cage body with an opening; a door body, one end of which is rotatably connected to one side of the opening; a first locking component, located at the other end of the door body; and a second locking component, located on the cage body, on the side of the opening away from the connection between the door body and the cage body.
[0006] The cage is rotatably connected to a door, with a first locking component on the door and a second locking component on the cage. Locking the door is achieved by first rotating the first locking component and then pulling the second locking component to the left. The operation is simple. In addition, after the first locking component locks the door, the two corners of the door near the second locking component can be fixed to prevent the door from deforming under external force.
[0007] In addition, the pet cage door lock in the above embodiments provided by this utility model may also have the following additional technical features:
[0008] In the above technical solution, the first locking assembly includes a first fixing member fixedly connected to the door body, the first fixing member having a receiving cavity; a rotating rod passing through the first fixing member and rotatably connected to the first fixing member; a torsion spring disposed inside the receiving cavity, the torsion spring being wound around the rotating rod, one end of the torsion spring being fixedly connected to the receiving cavity, the other end of the torsion spring passing through the rotating rod and being fixedly connected to the rotating rod; a hook fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating rod; and a handle fixedly connected to the rotating rod.
[0009] By fixing a first fixing member to the door body, and providing a torsion spring wrapped around a rotating rod inside the first fixing member, the torsion spring ensures that the rotating rod always forms a certain angle with the door body without external force. By fixing hooks to both ends of the rotating rod, when the door body is closed, the hooks cooperate with the cage body to fix the two corners of the door body near the second locking component, preventing the door body from deforming. By cooperating with the handle and the second locking component, and with the hooks and the cage body, the stability of the door body is greatly improved.
[0010] In the above technical solution, the second locking member includes a first mounting base, which is fixedly connected to the cage body, and the first mounting base is located on the side of the opening away from the connection between the door body and the cage body; a second mounting base, which is fixedly connected to the side of the first mounting base away from the cage body, and the side of the second mounting base away from the cage body is provided with a slide rail; and a locking member, which is slidably connected inside the second mounting base, and the end of the locking member away from the cage body passes through the slide rail.
[0011] By providing a slide rail on the side of the second mounting base away from the cage, and a locking element slidably connected inside the second mounting base, with the end of the locking element away from the cage passing through the slide rail, when the handle is rotated to the first mounting base, the locking element can be slid to the left to limit the end of the handle away from the door, preventing the handle from rotating further and achieving the locking effect on the door.
[0012] In the above technical solution, the locking component includes a slider that is slidably connected inside the second mounting base; and a first protrusion that is fixedly connected to the slider, the first protrusion passing through the slide rail and slidably connected to the slide rail.
[0013] A slider is slidably connected inside the second mounting base, and a first protrusion is fixedly connected to the slider on the side away from the cage. The first protrusion passes through the slide rail and is slidably connected to the slide rail. Thus, the door can be locked and opened by squeezing the first protrusion left and right.
[0014] In the above technical solution, the hook is V-shaped.
[0015] By setting the hook in a V-shape, the hook can better hook onto the bars on the cage, further improving the locking effect of the hook on the door.
[0016] In the above technical solution, the handle is U-shaped, with both ends of the handle located on both sides of the first fixing member, and both ends of the handle are fixedly connected to the rotating rod.
[0017] By setting the handle in a U-shape, with both ends of the handle located on both sides of the first fixing member, and the two ends of the handle fixedly connected to the rotating rod, the handle can limit the rotation rod and prevent it from sliding up and down.
[0018] In the above technical solution, a limiting plate is fixedly connected to the end of the first mounting base near the first fixing member.
[0019] By fixing a limiting plate to one end of the first mounting base near the first fixing member, the limiting plate can limit the locking member, preventing the locking member from sliding too far to the left and causing it to slide completely out of the second mounting base, thus reducing the difficulty of installing the locking member.
[0020] In the above technical solution, a second fixing member is fixedly connected to the door body, the second fixing member is provided with a second protrusion, a gap is left between the second protrusion and the door body, and the rotating rod passes through the gap.
[0021] By fixing a second fastener to the door body, the second fastener has a second protrusion and a gap between the second protrusion and the door body. The rotating rod passes through the gap. The stability of the rotating rod can be improved by the second fastener, and bending deformation at the upper and lower ends of the rotating rod can be avoided.
[0022] In the above technical solution, the rotating rod and the hook are integrally formed.
[0023] By molding the rotating rod and the hook into one piece, the structural strength of the rotating rod and the hook can be improved, while reducing the processing difficulty of the rotating rod and the hook.

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0036] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0037] The following reference Figures 1 to 7 Description of a pet cage door lock according to some embodiments of the present invention.
[0038] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a pet cage door lock, including a cage body 1, a door body 3, a first locking component, and a second locking component.
[0039] Specifically, the cage body 1 has an opening 2; a door body 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the opening 2; a first locking component is located at the other end of the door body 3; and a second locking component is located on the cage body 1, on the side of the opening 2 away from the connection between the door body 3 and the cage body 1.
[0040] When it is necessary to lock the door 3, the operator rotates the door 3 connected to the left end of the opening 2 to the right, so that the door 3 covers the opening 2 on the cage body 1. At this time, the right end of the door 3 contacts the right end of the opening 2. Then, the operator rotates the first locking component on the right end of the door 3 to the right, so that the first locking component contacts the second locking component fixedly connected to the cage body 1. Then, the operator pulls the second locking component on the right side of the opening 2 to the left, so that the second locking component limits the first locking component and prevents the first locking component from shifting, thereby preventing the door 3 from opening. At the same time, during the locking process of the first locking component, the upper and lower ends of the first locking component cooperate with the cage body 1 to fix the upper and lower ends of the right side of the door 3, preventing the upper and lower ends of the right side of the door 3 from deforming and improving the stability of the entire door 3.
[0041] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the first locking assembly includes a first fixing member 4, which is fixedly connected to the door body 3, and the first fixing member 4 has a receiving cavity 5; a rotating rod 6, which passes through the first fixing member 4 and is rotatably connected to the first fixing member 4; a torsion spring 7, which is disposed inside the receiving cavity 5, and is wound around the rotating rod 6, with one end of the torsion spring 7 fixedly connected to the receiving cavity 5 and the other end of the torsion spring 7 passing through the rotating rod 6 and fixedly connected to the rotating rod 6; a hook 8, which is fixedly connected to both ends of the rotating rod 6; and a handle 9, which is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 6.
[0042] The second locking member 13 includes a first mounting base 10, which is fixedly connected to the cage body 1. The first mounting base 10 is located on the side of the opening 2 away from the connection between the door body 3 and the cage body 1. A second mounting base 11 is fixedly connected to the side of the first mounting base 10 away from the cage body 1. A slide rail 12 is provided on the side of the second mounting base 11 away from the cage body 1. The locking member 13 is slidably connected inside the second mounting base 11. The end of the locking member 13 away from the cage body 1 passes through the slide rail 12.
[0043] The hook 8 is V-shaped.
[0044] When it is necessary to lock the door 3, first turn the door 3 to the right so that the door 3 and the cage 1 are in a closed state. Since there is a receiving cavity 5 in the first fixing member 4, and a torsion spring 7 is installed inside the receiving cavity 5, the torsion spring 7 is wound around the rotating rod 6. One end of the torsion spring 7 is fixedly connected to the receiving cavity 5, and the other end passes through the rotating rod 6 and is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 6. Therefore, when the rotating rod 6 is not under external force, the torsion spring 7 is in a relaxed state. The handle 9, which is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 6 at one end, forms an angle with the door 3. Therefore, it is necessary to push the handle 9 away from the door 3 towards the door 3. During this process, the torsion spring 7 will also deform and generate a pushing force on the operator. When the handle 9 is pushed to the first mounting seat 10 fixedly connected to the cage 1 on the right side of the opening 2, the torsion spring 7 will be pushed to the first mounting seat 10 fixedly connected to the cage 1 on the right side of the opening 2. At this time, since the area of the second mounting base 11 is smaller than the area of the first mounting base 10, the second mounting base 11 is fixedly connected to the middle of the side of the first mounting base 10 away from the cage body 1. Therefore, the handle 9 will not contact the second mounting base 11, but will only contact the first mounting base 10. Then, pull the locking member 13, which is slidably connected inside the second mounting base 11, to the left. The end of the locking member 13 away from the cage body 1 slides along the slide rail 12 opened on the side of the second mounting base 11 away from the cage body 1 until the left end of the locking member 13 moves to the side of the handle 9 away from the cage body 1. At this time, the handle 9 is released, and the locking member 13 has a limiting effect on the handle 9, preventing the right end of the handle 9 from rotating away from the cage body 1. After the position of the handle 9 is fixed, the position of the door 3 can be locked. During the movement of handle 9 toward the first mounting base 10, handle 9 will drive the rotating rod 6, which passes through the upper and lower ends of the first fixing member 4, to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod 6 will drive the hook 8, which is fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the rotating rod 6, to rotate. When the door 3 is closed, before the torsion spring 7 is deformed, the end of the hook 8 away from the rotating rod 6 extends vertically into the cage 1. At this time, the hook 8 is offset from the railing on the cage 1, and the door 3 can be opened at any time. When the torsion spring 7 begins to deform, handle 9 drives the rotating rod 6 to rotate, and the rotating rod 6 drives the hook 8 to rotate. When the door rotates, it gradually wraps around the nearest railing. When the handle 9 is locked, the end of the hook 8 away from the rotating rod 6 extends into the outside of the cage 1. Since the hook 8 is V-shaped, when the torsion spring 7 has not deformed, the opening 2 of the hook 8 faces the inside of the cage 1. When the torsion spring 7 deforms, the opening 2 of the hook 8 faces the outside of the cage 1, and the hook 8 hooks onto the nearest railing of the cage 1. Thus, through the cooperation between the hook 8 and the railing of the cage 1, the corner of the right end of the door 3 is locked, improving the stability of the entire door 3 and preventing the corner of the door 3 from deforming under impact.
[0045] When the door 3 needs to be opened, the torsion spring 7 has already deformed, and thus the torsion spring 7 will generate elastic force. Therefore, the locking member 13 slides to the right, and the locking member 13 no longer locks the handle 9. Then the torsion spring 7 returns to its deformation, which drives the rotating rod 6 to rotate. The rotating rod 6 then drives the handle 9 and the hook 8 to rotate together. The handle 9 pops out of the first mounting seat 10, and the hook 8 no longer locks the two corners on the right side of the door 3. Then the door 3 can be opened.
[0046] The above-mentioned locking process of door 3 only requires closing door 3 and then pulling the locking part 13 to the left. To open door 3, simply pull the locking part 13 to the right and then open door 3. The operation is simple and can improve the stability of door 3 and avoid leaving gaps at corners.
[0047] It should be noted that the cavity 5 is equipped with four limiting posts, which are the four corners of a rectangle. A limiting rod is provided through the first fixing member 4 in the horizontal direction. The limiting rod is located on the upper surface of the two upper limiting posts. One of the horizontally set railings of the door body 3 passes through the first fixing member 4 and is located on the lower surface of the two lower limiting posts. The limiting rod and railing inside the first fixing member 4 play a limiting role for the first fixing member 4, which can facilitate the installation and positioning of the first fixing member 4.
[0048] like Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the locking member 13 includes a slider 14, which is slidably connected to the inside of the second mounting base 11; and a first protrusion 15, which is fixedly connected to the slider 14, and the first protrusion 15 passes through the slide rail 12 and is slidably connected to the slide rail 12.
[0049] When it is necessary to lock the handle 9, the operator only needs to pinch the first protrusion 15 fixedly connected to the slider 14. The first protrusion 15 passes through the slide rail 12 and is slidably connected to the slide rail 12. Pull the first protrusion 15 to the left, and the first protrusion 15 slides to the left along the slide rail 12. At the same time, the first protrusion 15 drives the slider 14, which is slidably connected inside the second mounting base 11, to slide to the left until the left end of the slider 14 moves to the side of the handle 9 away from the cage 1. The handle 9 can then be locked. The operation process is simple.
[0050] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the handle 9 is U-shaped, and the two ends of the handle 9 are located on both sides of the first fixing member 4. The two ends of the handle 9 are fixedly connected to the rotating rod 6.
[0051] By setting the handle 9 in a U-shape, with its two ends respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the first fixing member 4, and the two ends of the handle 9 fixedly connected to the rotating rod 6, and the first fixing member 4 fixed to the door body 3, the first fixing member 4 will not slide. The two ends of the handle 9 are located on the upper and lower sides of the first fixing member 4, and the first fixing member 4 can limit the position of the handle 9. The handle 9 is fixedly connected to the rotating rod 6, and thus the handle 9 can limit the position of the rotating rod 6, preventing the rotating rod 6 from sliding up and down and improving the stability of the rotating rod 6.
[0052] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the first mounting base 10 is fixedly connected to a limiting plate 16 at one end near the first fixing member 4.
[0053] By fixing a limiting plate 16 to one end of the first mounting base 10 near the first fixing member 4, the limiting plate 16 can limit the locking member 13, preventing the locking member 13 from sliding too far to the left and causing the locking member 13 to slide completely out of the second mounting base 11, thus reducing the difficulty of installing the locking member 13.
[0054] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a second fixing member 17 is fixedly connected to the door body 3, and a second protrusion 18 is provided on the second fixing member 17. A gap is left between the second protrusion 18 and the door body 3, and the rotating rod 6 passes through the gap.
[0055] Two second fixing members 17 are fixedly connected to the side of the door body 3 away from the cage body 1. The two second fixing members 17 are close to the upper and lower ends of the door body 3 respectively. The middle part of the second fixing member 17 is bent away from the cage body 1 to form a second protrusion 18. A gap is left between the second protrusion 18 and the door body 3. The rotating rod 6 passes through the gap. The stability of the rotating rod 6 can be improved by the second fixing members 17, and the bending deformation of the upper and lower ends of the rotating rod 6 can be avoided.
[0056] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the rotating rod 6 and the hook 8 are integrally formed.
[0057] By integrally molding the rotating rod 6 and the hook 8, the structural strength of the rotating rod 6 and the hook 8 can be improved, while the processing difficulty of the rotating rod 6 and the hook 8 can be reduced.
[0058] This utility model has the following advantages:
[0059] 1. The first locking component and the second locking component work together to lock the door 3, and the process of locking and opening the door 3 is simple.
[0060] 2. The first locking component can fix the two corners on the right side of the door body 3 to prevent the two corners on the right side of the door body 3 from deforming under the action of external force.
