Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pet fence technology, and specifically relates to a pet fence. Background Technology

[0002] A pet fence is a type of enclosure used to restrict the movement of pets indoors. It can prevent pets from running around freely while also keeping the indoor space clean and safe.

[0003] To make pet fences suitable for different indoor environments, most pet fences on the market are modular, such as the modular pet fence disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent CN 202323013037.1. This modular pet fence includes several side fences, each with a connecting part at the top and bottom of both sides. Each connecting part has a connecting hole, and adjacent side fences are connected longitudinally in opposite directions. Each connecting hole contains a connector, and the bottom of the connector has a notch. Guide ramps are located on both sides of the notch, and a check valve is located above the guide ramps. In this design, when installing the pet fence, the two side fences are joined together, and the connector is inserted from above the connecting part, fixing the adjacent connecting parts together. When disassembling the pet fence, pressing the guide ramps on both sides prevents the check valve from contacting the bottom of the connecting part, allowing the connector to move upwards out of the connecting hole. This allows for convenient installation and disassembly of the pet fence without the need for disassembly tools.

[0004] In the above structure, adjacent side fences are connected by connectors and connecting holes. The pet fence has poor stability and is prone to deformation when subjected to force, which affects the pet's activity space and thus affects the normal use of the pet fence.

[0017] The advantages of this utility model compared to the prior art are:

[0018] 1. In this utility model, the fastener detachably connects two adjacent side fences and keeps the connecting groove and the connecting part in fit. The positioning surface on the side of the connecting groove and the abutting surface on the outer periphery of the connecting part can restrict the relative rotation of the two adjacent side fences. The structure is simple, which is conducive to the stable installation of the two adjacent side fences, avoids the deformation of the pet fence during use, and is convenient for users. In addition, since the positioning surface can be matched with different abutting surfaces, the relative angle between the two adjacent side fences is different, which makes it convenient for users to flexibly install the pet fence and is convenient for users to use.

[0019] 2. In this utility model, the positioning protrusion and positioning slot cooperate to facilitate the stable installation of the connecting groove and the connecting part, and avoid excessive force on the side fence during use, which would cause relative rotation of the two adjacent side fences and damage to the positioning surface and the mating surface, thus extending the service life of the pet fence. The setting of the mating protrusion helps to reduce the friction between the positioning protrusion and the positioning slot during installation and disassembly, making it convenient for the assembly and disassembly of the pet fence, and avoiding the serious wear of the positioning protrusion and positioning slot after frequent disassembly, which would affect the stable installation of the two adjacent side fences. The setting of the guide surface facilitates the quick cooperation between the positioning protrusion and the positioning slot, making it convenient for the quick installation of the two adjacent side fences.

[0020] 3. The structure of at least two positioning surfaces in this utility model helps to distribute the force on the connecting groove and the connecting part, avoiding damage to the positioning surface and the mating surface due to excessive force during use, and helping to extend the service life of the pet fence; the openings set at one end and both sides of the connecting groove help to increase the angle range when the two side fences are installed, which facilitates the flexible installation of the pet fence and makes it convenient for users.

[0021] 4. The connecting brackets set on the upper and lower sides of the side fence in this utility model facilitate the stable installation of two adjacent side fences, avoid damage to the connecting groove and connecting part due to excessive force, and help extend the service life of the pet fence; since multiple abutting surfaces on the outer periphery of the connecting part are set along the central circumference of the second mounting hole, the fastener can connect the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole when the positioning surface is engaged with different abutting surfaces, and this structure does not require a large gap between the fastener and the first mounting hole or the second mounting hole, which is conducive to the stable installation of two adjacent side fences.

[0022] 5. The baffle bar in this utility model not only prevents pets from passing through the gap in the movable door, but also controls the locking mechanism to detach from the side fence, which helps to simplify the structure of the pet fence and facilitates production and processing. Multiple locking mechanisms facilitate the stable connection between the movable door and the side fence, and since the baffle bar can control the movement of multiple locking mechanisms simultaneously, it is convenient for users to control the relative opening of the movable door and the exit, making it convenient for users to use. Since the movable door is rotatably mounted on the side fence through one railing and is relatively fixed to the side fence through another railing, it helps to simplify the structure of the side fence and reduce the types of parts in the pet fence, which helps to reduce production costs.

Detailed Implementation

[0036] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0037] See Figures 1 to 11 As shown, a pet enclosure includes at least two side enclosures 1 connected in sequence. Each side enclosure 1 includes a connecting frame 11 and a railing 12. The connecting frame 11 has a connecting groove 111 and a connecting part 115 at both ends. The connecting grooves 111 and connecting parts 115 on adjacent side enclosures 1 are detachably connected by fasteners 2. A positioning surface 112 is provided on the side of the connecting groove 111. At least two abutting surfaces 116 adapted to the positioning surface 112 are provided on the outer periphery of the connecting part 115. The abutting surfaces 116 abut against the positioning surface 112, thereby restricting the relative rotation of adjacent side enclosures 1. Furthermore, the positioning surface 112 can cooperate with different abutting surfaces 116. The structure allows for different relative angles between two adjacent side fences 1. In this structure, fasteners 2 detachably connect two adjacent side fences 1 and maintain the engagement between the connecting groove 111 and the connecting part 115. The positioning surface 112 on the side of the connecting groove 111 and the abutting surface 116 on the outer periphery of the connecting part 115 can restrict the relative rotation of two adjacent side fences 1. The structure is simple, which is conducive to the stable installation of two adjacent side fences 1, avoids deformation of the pet fence during use, and is convenient for users. Furthermore, since the positioning surface 112 can engage with different abutting surfaces 116 to make the relative angles between two adjacent side fences 1 different, it is convenient for users to flexibly install the pet fence and make it convenient for users to use.

[0038] Preferably, the side fence 1 is provided with connecting frames 11 on both the upper and lower sides, and the railing 12 is arranged between the connecting frames 11. The connecting frames 11 on the upper and lower sides of the side fence 1 are respectively connected to the adjacent side fence 1. The connecting frames 11 on the upper and lower sides of the side fence 1 facilitate the stable installation of two adjacent side fences 1, avoid excessive stress on the connecting groove 111 and the connecting part 115 and damage, and help extend the service life of the pet fence.

[0039] In this embodiment, the connecting groove 111 is provided with at least two positioning surfaces 112 on its side. The positioning surfaces 112 are inclined to each other. The abutting surface 116 on the outer periphery of the connecting part 115 can be adapted to different positioning surfaces 112 at the same time. The structure of at least two positioning surfaces 112 is conducive to dispersing the force on the connecting groove 111 and the connecting part 115, avoiding excessive force during use that could damage the positioning surfaces 112 and the abutting surface 116, and thus helping to extend the service life of the pet fence.

[0040] The bottom of the connecting groove 111 and the connecting part 115 are respectively provided with a first mounting hole 114 and a second mounting hole 120. Multiple abutting surfaces 116 on the outer periphery of the connecting part 115 are arranged along the central circumference of the second mounting hole 120. The fastener 2 passes through the first mounting hole 114 and the second mounting hole 120, so that the positioning surface 112 can cooperate with different abutting surfaces 116. In this structure, when the positioning surface 112 cooperates with different abutting surfaces 116, the fastener 2 can connect the first mounting hole 114 and the second mounting hole 120. Moreover, this structure does not require a large gap to be formed between the fastener 2 and the first mounting hole 114 or the second mounting hole 120, which is beneficial to the stable installation of two adjacent side fences 1.

[0041] In this embodiment, the positioning surface 112 is set at one end of the connecting groove 111, and the other end and both sides of the connecting groove 111 are open. A connecting bracket 11 can pass through the opening of the connecting groove 111 and extend to the end or both sides of the other connecting bracket 11. The openings at one end and both sides of the connecting groove 111 help to increase the angle range when the two side fences 1 are installed, which facilitates the flexible installation of the pet fence and makes it convenient for users to use.

[0042] In this invention, the bottom of the connecting groove 111 is provided with a positioning protrusion 113, and the connecting part 115 is provided with a positioning slot 117 adapted to the positioning protrusion 113. The positioning slot 117 corresponds to the abutment surface 116. The positioning protrusion 113 is inserted into the positioning slot 117 and restricts the relative rotation of two adjacent side fences 1. The cooperation between the positioning protrusion 113 and the positioning slot 117 is conducive to the stable installation of the connecting groove 111 and the connecting part 115, and avoids the side fence 1 from being subjected to excessive force during use, which would cause the relative rotation of two adjacent side fences 1 and damage the positioning surface 112 and the abutment surface 116, thus helping to extend the service life of the pet fence.

[0043] In this embodiment, a clamping protrusion 118 is provided on one side of the positioning slot 117. The clamping protrusion 118 and the positioning slot 117 respectively clamp against the two sides of the positioning protrusion 113. The end of the clamping protrusion 118 is provided with an inclined guide surface 119. The guide surface 119 guides the positioning protrusion 113, so that the positioning protrusion 113 passes into the positioning slot 117. The clamping protrusion 118 helps to reduce the friction between the positioning protrusion 113 and the positioning slot 117 during installation and disassembly, which facilitates the assembly and disassembly of the pet fence. It also avoids the serious wear of the positioning protrusion 113 and the positioning slot 117 after frequent disassembly, which would affect the stable installation of the two adjacent side fences 1. The guide surface 119 facilitates the quick engagement of the positioning protrusion 113 and the positioning slot 117, which facilitates the quick installation of the two adjacent side fences 1.

[0044] The side fence 1 is provided with an outlet 13, and a movable door 3 for blocking the outlet 13 is movably provided on the side fence 1. A locking member 4 adapted to the side fence 1 and an elastic member 5 for driving the locking member 4 to reset are movably provided on the movable door 3. A stop bar 6 is also movably provided on the movable door 3. The stop bar 6 can drive the locking member 4 to move and disengage from the side fence 1. The arrangement of the outlet 13 and the movable door 3 facilitates the flexible installation and use of the pet fence. In addition, the arrangement of the stop bar 6 in this structure can not only prevent pets from passing through the gap in the movable door 3, but also control the locking member 4 to disengage from the side fence 1, which helps to simplify the structure of the pet fence and facilitates production and processing.

[0045] The preferred exit 13 is provided with ramps 14 on both the inner and outer sides below it. The ramps 14 facilitate the passage of pets through the exit 13 and make it convenient for users. The preferred movable door 3 is provided with limiting protrusions 35 on both the upper and lower sides. The limiting protrusions can abut against the side of the end of the exit 13, thereby preventing the movable door 3 from passing through the exit 13 and facilitating the quick engagement of the locking member 4 and the railing 12.

[0046] The movable door 3 described in this utility model is provided with at least two locking elements 4. The stop bar 6 cooperates with each locking element 4 and can drive the locking elements 4 to move synchronously. Multiple locking elements 4 are conducive to the stable connection between the movable door 3 and the side railing 1. Since the stop bar 6 can control the movement of multiple locking elements 4 at the same time, it is convenient for the user to control the movable door 3 and the exit 13 to open relative to each other, which is convenient for the user.

[0047] In this embodiment, the movable door 3 is provided with two locking members 4, and the movable door 3 is provided with a sliding groove 31. The locking members 4 are slidably disposed in the sliding groove 31, and the elastic member 5 is disposed in the sliding groove 31 and drives the locking members 4 to reset. The locking members 4 are provided with a mounting groove 43 connected to the stop bar 6. The side wall of the sliding groove 31 is provided with a first limiting groove 32. The stop bar 6 passes through the first limiting groove 32 into the sliding groove 31 and is connected to the mounting groove 43. The first limiting groove 32 restricts the movement range of the stop bar 6, thereby restricting the movement range of the locking members 4.

[0048] The locking member 4 is provided with an elastic hook 42, and the slide groove 31 is provided with a second limiting groove 33. The elastic hook 42 and the second limiting groove 33 cooperate to control the movement range of the locking member 4 and prevent the locking member 4 from accidentally disengaging from the movable door 3.

[0049] The outlet 13 is located between two railings 12. The movable door 3 is rotatably mounted on the side fence 1 via the railing 12 on one side of the outlet 13. The locking element 4 is detachably connected to the railing 12 on the other side of the outlet 13. Since the movable door 3 is rotatably mounted on the side fence 1 via one railing 12 and is relatively fixed to the side fence 1 via the other railing 12, it is beneficial to simplify the structure of the side fence 1, reduce the types of parts of the pet fence, and reduce production costs.

[0050] In this embodiment, the movable door 3 is provided with a hinge hole 34 that connects to the railing 12, and the locking member 4 is provided with a slot 41. The elastic member 5 drives the locking member 4 to reset, so that the slot 41 cooperates with the railing 12 and fixes the movable door 3 relative to the side fence 1.

[0051] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of the present utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
