[0038] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0039] 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.

[0040] The following reference Figures 1 to 9 This invention describes some embodiments of a pet fence.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a pet fence, comprising:

[0042] Multiple fences are connected end to end to form the main body of the fence;

[0043] A connecting component is disposed between two adjacent fences and within the fences;

[0044] 1. An entrance / exit is located on at least one of the aforementioned enclosures;

[0045] Door 2 is rotatably connected to the inlet / outlet 1.

[0046] Before installation, the pet fence is folded, resembling a cuboid structure. This reduces storage space and improves space utilization. Furthermore, while multiple fence sections are folded together, adjacent sections are connected by a retaining mechanism. This prevents the sections from sliding off one by one if the fence tilts, and the retaining mechanism provides some restraint, enhancing the stability of the folded fence.

[0047] When installing the pet fence body, stretch both ends of the pet fence body horizontally to the sides. After the pet fence body is unfolded, the fence is in a folded state. Then fold a part of the fence upwards, and then connect the two ends of the fence together to form the fully unfolded pet fence body.

[0048] In the above process, there is no need to install two adjacent fences with screws or other parts. Simply stretch the folded pet fence body horizontally first, then flip the fence upwards and connect the two ends of the fence. The installation steps are simple, which greatly reduces the installation time of the pet fence body and improves the installation efficiency.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model,

[0050] The enclosure includes:

[0051] The first fence frame 3 is rectangular in shape;

[0052] The first fence panel 5 is fixedly connected inside the first fence frame 3. The first fence panel 5 is a grid panel made of metal wire.

[0053] The second fence frame 4 is rectangular in shape, and its lower end is positioned opposite to the upper end of the first fence frame 3. This description of the orientation of the lower end of the second fence frame 4 and the upper end of the first fence frame 3 refers only to the pet fence body after it is fully extended and installed.

[0054] The second fence panel 6 is fixedly connected inside the second fence frame 4. The second fence panel 6 is a grid panel made of metal wire.

[0055] The first fence frames 3 within the multiple fences are connected end to end in sequence;

[0056] The second fence frames 4 within the multiple fences are connected end to end in sequence.

[0057] The connection component includes:

[0058] The first connecting pipe 7 is disposed between adjacent first fence frames 3. The adjacent ends of the adjacent first fence frames 3 are rotatably connected to the first connecting pipe 7. The adjacent ends of the adjacent first fence frames 3 are the head end of one of the first fence frames 3 and the tail end of the adjacent first fence frame 3.

[0059] The second connecting pipe 8 is disposed between adjacent second fence frames 4. The adjacent ends of the adjacent second fence frames 4 are rotatably connected to the second connecting pipe 8. The adjacent ends of the adjacent second fence frames 4 here are the head end of one of the second fence frames 4 and the tail end of the second fence frame 4 adjacent to it.

[0060] The third connecting pipe 9 is located between the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4. The adjacent ends of the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 are rotatably connected to the third connecting pipe 9. The adjacent ends of the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 are the upper end of the first fence frame 3 and the lower end of the second fence frame 4. The upper end of the first fence frame 3 and the lower end of the second fence frame 4 refer only to their positional relationship after the pet fence body is installed.

[0061] Taking eight enclosures as an example, when installing the pet fence body, the eight enclosures are stacked together to form a cuboid structure, which facilitates storage and transportation, occupies little space, and greatly improves space utilization.

[0062] When the pet fence needs to be unfolded, first place the folded pet fence on the ground. At this time, the eight fences are arranged in the same horizontal direction and all eight fences are in a vertical state. Since the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 inside the same fence are in a folded state, the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 inside the eight fences are also in a vertical state. The first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 inside the same fence are set opposite to each other. Then pull the fences at both ends in two opposite directions.

[0063] For example, the eight fences are designated as Fence No. 1, Fence No. 2, Fence No. 3, Fence No. 4, Fence No. 5, Fence No. 6, Fence No. 7, and Fence No. 8. The first fence frame 3 in Fence No. 1, Fence No. 2, Fence No. 3, Fence No. 4, Fence No. 5, Fence No. 6, Fence No. 7, and Fence No. 8 are respectively the first fence frame 3 of Fence No. 3, Fence No. 3, Fence No. 4, Fence No. 5, Fence No. 6, Fence No. 7, and Fence No. 8. Three first connecting pipes 7 are provided between the first end of the first fence frame 3 and the second end of the first fence frame 3, and the first end of the first fence frame 3 and the second end of the first fence frame 3 pass through the three first connecting pipes 7. The first end of the first fence frame 3 and the second end of the first fence frame 3 can rotate within the three first connecting pipes 7, but the first connecting pipes 7 are tightly fitted into the first end of the first fence frame 3 and the second end of the first fence frame 3, and friction prevents the first connecting pipes 7 from sliding freely; Three first connecting pipes 7 are provided between the first end of the second fence frame 3 and the third end of the first fence frame 3, and the first end of the second fence frame 3 and the third end of the first fence frame 3 pass through the three first connecting pipes 7. The first end of the second fence frame 3 and the third end of the first fence frame 3 can rotate within the three first connecting pipes 7; and so on, until the first end of the seventh fence frame 3 is connected to the second end of the eighth fence frame 3.

[0064] The connection method between two adjacent second fence frames 4 is the same as the connection method between two adjacent first fence frames 3, so the principle of the connection method between two adjacent second fence frames 4 will not be elaborated here.

[0065] The connection method of the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 inside the same fence is the same as the connection method of the two adjacent first fence frames 3. Therefore, the principle of the connection method of the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 inside the same fence will not be elaborated here.

[0066] It should be noted that the tail end of the first fence frame 3 and the head end of the eighth fence frame 3 are not connected when folded, but when fully unfolded, the head end of the first fence frame 3 and the tail end of the eighth fence frame 3 are connected by a latch; the tail end of the second fence frame 4 and the head end of the eighth fence frame 4 are not connected when folded, but when fully unfolded, the head end of the second fence frame 4 and the tail end of the eighth fence frame 4 are connected by a latch; the latch is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0067] When the No. 1 and No. 8 fences are pulled, the first and last ends of each first fence frame 3 rotate within the corresponding first connecting pipe 7, and the first and last ends of each second fence frame 4 rotate within the corresponding second connecting pipe 8, until the eight first fence frames 3 are on the same straight line and the eight second fence frames 4 are also on the same straight line. At this time, the first fence frames 3 and the second fence frames 4 inside the same fence are set opposite each other. Then the second fence frame 4 is flipped upward and rotated along the corresponding third connecting pipe 9 until the second fence frame 4 moves completely to the top of the first fence frame 3, so that the first fence frames 3 and the second fence frames 4 inside the same fence are on the same vertical line.

[0068] Then, the first and eighth fences are pulled, connecting the tail end of the first fence to the head end of the eighth fence via latches. At this point, the eight fences form the main body of the pet enclosure. Since an entrance / exit 1 is located inside the first fence, its upper end is flush with the upper end of the second fence frame 4 within the first fence, and its lower end is flush with the lower end of the first fence frame 3 within the first fence. This makes the entrance / exit 1 vertically open, meaning there are no obstructions at its upper or lower ends. A door 2 is rotatably connected to the end of the entrance / exit 1 furthest from the eighth fence. A lock is located on the other end of the door 2. When the door 2 is closed, the lock secures it to the first fence, thus securing the entire pet enclosure. This completes the installation of the pet enclosure.

[0069] When you need to fold up the pet fence, you can unlock the door, straighten the eight fence sections, flip the second fence frame 4 downwards, and then fold the eight fence sections to form a cuboid block.

[0070] It should be noted that the principle of the door 2 unfolding and folding is the same as that of the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 inside the same enclosure, and will not be elaborated on here.

[0071] During the installation process described above, it is only necessary to pull the barriers at both ends, then flip the second fence frame 4 upwards and secure it with a door lock. The installation process is simple. Furthermore, the first connecting pipe 7, the second connecting pipe 8, and the third connecting pipe 9 have simple structures and low manufacturing costs.

[0072] After the pet fence body is folded, the storage space can be greatly reduced, thus improving space utilization.

[0073] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, it further includes:

[0074] A fixing member 10 is disposed between two adjacent enclosures. A plurality of first limiting grooves 11 are provided on one side of the fixing member 10. The first limiting grooves 11 are arranged circumferentially around the center of one side of the fixing member 10 and are connected to the edge of the fixing member 10.

[0075] The fixing member 10 is cylindrical in shape. Multiple first limiting grooves 11 are formed on one of the bottom surfaces of the fixing member 10. The first limiting grooves 11 are arranged circumferentially around the center of the bottom surface and are connected to the edge of the fixing member 10. Taking four first limiting grooves 11 as an example, the distance between any two adjacent first limiting grooves 11 is the same. Therefore, the angle formed by the line connecting the center of one first limiting groove 11 to the center of the bottom surface and the line connecting the center of the adjacent first limiting groove 11 to the center of the bottom surface is 90 degrees. Therefore, when it is necessary to design the angle between two adjacent fences to be 90 degrees, the fixing member 10 can be placed at the lower end between two adjacent first fence frames 3, and then the lower ends of the two adjacent first fence frames 3 are respectively inserted into two adjacent first limiting grooves 11, fixing the position of the first fence frames 3 through the first limiting grooves 11. Similarly, the fixing member 10 can be placed at the upper end between two adjacent second fence frames 4, fixing the position of the second fence frames 4 using the same principle. This ensures that the angle between two adjacent fences is 90 degrees, preventing the fences from shifting. When it is necessary to design the angle between two adjacent fences to be 180 degrees, the lower ends of the two adjacent first fence frames 3 can be inserted into the oppositely arranged first limiting grooves 11, and the upper ends of the two adjacent second fence frames 4 can be inserted into the oppositely arranged first limiting grooves 11, thereby fixing the position of the two adjacent fences and setting the angle between the two adjacent fences to 180 degrees.

[0076] It should be noted that two, three, or five first limiting grooves 11 can also be formed on the bottom surface of the fastener 10. The principle is the same as that of forming four first limiting grooves 11 in this embodiment, and will not be elaborated further here. The first limiting grooves 11 fit tightly with the first fence frame 3 and the second fence frame 4 to prevent the fastener from slipping.

[0077] like Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the fixing member 10 has a plurality of second limiting grooves 12 on the side near the first limiting groove 11.

[0078] By having multiple second limiting grooves 12 on the side of the fastener 10 near the first limiting groove 11, and by having multiple second limiting grooves 12 respectively between two adjacent first limiting grooves 11, the manufacturing material of the fastener 10 can be reduced, thus lowering the cost.

[0079] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0080] 1. By setting up foldable fencing, it can be folded down when not in use, reducing the floor space occupied and improving space utilization.

[0081] 2. By incorporating connecting components between adjacent fences and within the fence itself, the entire pet fence can be folded and unfolded without the need for other parts to connect the two fences together, greatly improving installation efficiency.

[0082] 3. The connecting components have a simple structure and low manufacturing cost.

[0083] In this utility model, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing" should be interpreted broadly.
