[0021] Before this utility model is described in detail, it should be noted that similar elements are represented by the same reference numerals in the following description.

[0022] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first embodiment of this utility model of recyclable pet supplies is suitable for contact with... Figure 6 The fur of the pet 1 shown is used to receive the excrement or secretion (not shown), such as urine, of the pet 1.

[0023] The recyclable pet supplies P1 of this first embodiment are essentially composed of a breathable bottom layer 2 extending along a length direction L and including a bottom upper surface 21, an absorbent body 3 extending along the length direction L and bonded to the bottom upper surface 21 and spaced apart from the periphery 211 of the bottom upper surface 21, an elastic permeable surface layer 4 contacting the fur of the pet 1 and extending along the length direction L to cover the absorbent body 3 and the breathable bottom layer 2, a fixing unit 5, and a packaging component. In this first embodiment of the present invention, the breathable bottom layer 2, the absorbent body 3, the elastic permeable surface layer 4, the fixing unit 5, and the packaging component are made of the same polymer. The same polymer is selected from polyolefins or polyesters. Polyolefins can be polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP), etc. Polyesters can be polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

[0024] The absorbent body 3 is used to absorb the urine discharged from the pet 1. In order to enable the absorbent body 3 to quickly absorb the urine, the absorbent body 3 comprises a plurality of absorbent holes 30 arranged at intervals and penetrating a top surface 31 and a bottom surface 32 thereof. It is worth mentioning that, in order to improve the water absorption of the absorbent body 3, the absorbent body 3 can contain a softening agent or a modifying agent, or be treated by grafting. The absorbent body 3 can also be composed of a plurality of fibers with the same thickness, a plurality of fibers with different thicknesses, or a single-layer foaming body.

[0025] The elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 comprises a surface layer bottom surface 41 facing the bottom layer top surface 21. A periphery 411 of the surface layer bottom surface 41 is combined with the periphery 211 of the bottom layer top surface 21. Specifically, the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 is a non-woven fabric. In order to enable the urine to quickly penetrate into the absorbent body 3, the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 further comprises a plurality of embossing 47 recessed towards the absorbent body 3.

[0026] The fixing unit 5 is arranged on a bottom layer bottom surface 22 opposite to the bottom layer top surface 21. The recyclable pet product P1 of the first embodiment of the present application is exemplified by a pet pad, but is not limited thereto. Specifically, the fixing unit 5 comprises a plurality of adhesive layers 51 arranged at intervals on the bottom layer bottom surface 22 of the breathable bottom layer 2, and a release film 52 attached to the adhesive layers 51. When a pet owner actually uses the recyclable pet product P1 of the first embodiment of the present application, the release film 52 can be torn off and the adhesive layers 51 are attached to a bottom seat top surface (not shown in the figure) of a pet basket, so as to fix the recyclable pet product P1 of the first embodiment on the bottom seat top surface of the pet basket, for receiving the excrement discharged from the pet 1.

[0027] To simplify the waste recycling process of the recyclable pet supplies P1 of the first embodiment of this invention, the bottom surface 32 of the absorbent 3 is fused to the upper surface 21 of the breathable bottom layer 2 using a high-frequency wave or an ultrasonic wave, and the periphery 411 of the lower surface 41 of the elastic permeable surface layer 4 is fused to the periphery 211 of the upper surface 21 of the breathable bottom layer 2 using the same high-frequency wave or ultrasonic wave. Thus, the breathable bottom layer 2, the absorbent 3, the elastic permeable surface layer 4, and the fixing unit 5 of the first embodiment of this invention are all made of the same polymer, and the absorbent 3 and the breathable bottom layer 2, as well as the breathable bottom layer 2 and the elastic permeable surface layer 4, are fused together using the same high-frequency wave or ultrasonic wave. Therefore, the recyclable pet supplies P1 of the first embodiment does not require the use of hot melt adhesive to bond different polymer materials as in existing pet supplies. Compared to existing pet supplies, the recyclable pet supplies P1 of the first embodiment of this utility model have simpler and fewer steps in the recycling process, such as decomposition and material purification, for waste after actual use.

[0028] The packaging of the first embodiment of this utility model is as follows: Figure 3 The packaging bag 9 shown is used to package the recyclable pet supplies P1 of the first embodiment.

[0029] A second embodiment of the recyclable pet supplies of this utility model is generally the same as the first embodiment, except that the fixing unit 5 in the first embodiment is replaced by two connecting pieces 6.

[0030] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the recyclable pet supplies P2 of the second embodiment of this utility model are essentially composed of the breathable bottom layer 2, the absorbent body 3, the elastic permeable surface layer 4, the two connecting pieces 6, the two retaining walls 7, and... Figure 3 The packaging bag 9 shown is constructed from this material. Furthermore, the two connecting pieces 6 and the two retaining walls 7 are all made of the same polymer.

[0031] Specifically, the breathable bottom layer 2 also includes an inverted V-shaped bottom layer cutout 26 that penetrates the upper surface 21 and the lower surface 22 of the bottom layer, and defines a bottom layer body segment 23 extending along the length direction L, a bottom layer back segment 24 connected to a first end of the bottom layer body segment 23, and a bottom layer belly segment 25 connected to a second end of the bottom layer body segment 23 opposite to the first end.

[0032] The elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 further comprises a reverse V-shaped surface layer cutout 46 extending through a surface layer upper surface 42 opposite the surface layer lower surface 41 and the surface layer lower surface 41, and defines a surface layer body section 43 extending along the length direction L, a surface layer back section 44 connecting a first end of the surface layer body section 43, and a surface layer belly section 45 connecting a second end of the surface layer body section 43 opposite the first end. The back section 24, the belly section 25, and the reverse V-shaped cutout 26 of the bottom layer 2 each correspond to the surface layer body section 43, the surface layer back section 44, the surface layer belly section 45, and the reverse V-shaped surface layer cutout 46, respectively, and the reverse V-shaped cutout 26 of the bottom layer 2 and the reverse V-shaped surface layer cutout 46 are each located at the back section 24 of the bottom layer 2 and the back section 44 of the surface layer 4, and are each proximate to the body section 23 of the bottom layer 2 and the body section 43 of the surface layer 4. In detail, the second embodiment of the recyclable pet product of the present application is exemplified by a pet diaper, and when actually worn on the pet 1, a tail 11 of the pet 1 can pass through the reverse V-shaped surface layer cutout 46 of the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4.

[0033] The absorbent body 3 is sandwiched between the body section 23 and the belly section 25 of the bottom layer 2 and the body section 43 and the belly section 45 of the surface layer 4.

[0034] The two coupling pieces 6 are disposed on the bottom layer lower surface 22 to extend away from each other along a width direction W transverse to the length direction L from the belly section 25 of the bottom layer 2.

[0035] In the second embodiment of the present application, the same polymer is used to make the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4.

[0036] The two retaining walls 7 extend along the length direction L and are coupled to the surface layer upper surface 42 of the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4, and the two retaining walls 7 are spaced apart from each other along the width direction W to cover an outer side of the absorbent body 3. Similarly, in the second embodiment of the present application, the two retaining walls 7 are coupled to the surface layer upper surface 42 of the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 by the high-frequency or ultrasonic waves.

[0037] Specifically, each of the coupling pieces 6 has an adhesive. When the pet owner actually wears the pet diaper of the second embodiment of the recyclable pet product P2 on the pet 1, the surface layer upper surface 42 of the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 faces the pet 1, the surface layer back section 44 of the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 contacts the back of the pet 1, the tail 11 of the pet 1 passes through the reverse V-shaped cutout 46 of the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4, the surface layer belly section 45 of the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 contacts the belly of the pet 1, and finally the adhesives of the two coupling pieces 6 are attached to the bottom layer lower surface 22 of the breathable bottom layer 2 to be fixed at the back section 24 of the breathable bottom layer 2.

[0038] In summary, the breathable bottom layer 2, the absorbent body 3, the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4, the fixing unit 5, the two combination pieces 6 and the retaining walls 7 in the recyclable pet product of the present application are made of the same polymer, the absorbent body 3 is fused to the breathable bottom layer 2 through high frequency or ultrasonic waves, and the breathable bottom layer 2 and the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 and the two retaining walls 7 and the elastic water-permeable surface layer 4 are fused to each other, so that the decomposition and material purification steps in the recycling process of the waste after actual use are simpler and reduced, and the purpose of the present application is achieved.

[0039] The above is only an embodiment of the present application, and cannot limit the scope of the present application. Any simple equivalent changes and modifications made according to the claims and the content of the patent specification are still within the scope of the present application.
