Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cat cage technology, and in particular to a cat cage. Background Technology

[0002] Cat cages are mainly used to restrict a cat's activity range, which can play a good role in isolation and prevent cats from running around on the ground.

[0003] The cat cage mentioned in the existing Chinese patent (authorization announcement number: CN218245056U) includes a base plate, a top plate, a fixing frame, and a disassembly assembly. Support columns are movably installed around the four sides of opposite sides of the base plate and top plate. The disassembly assembly includes threaded holes around the top of the base plate. A threaded rod extending into the threaded hole is fixedly installed at the bottom of each support column, and the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the threaded hole. The top plate has slots around its bottom, and a locking block extending into the slot is fixedly installed at the top of the base plate. This novel cat cage, which is easy to disassemble, is designed to be detachable. When a component is damaged, only the corresponding component needs to be replaced, eliminating the need for a complete replacement. Furthermore, it can be disassembled into components to reduce space occupation and facilitate carrying. Most connections are made using threads, requiring only a screwdriver for installation and disassembly, making it very convenient.

[0004] In actual use, existing cat cages usually have a litter box inside, and cat litter is poured into the litter box for the cat to bury its feces and urine. When the cat plays and jumps in the cat cage, it is easy to bump into the litter box, causing it to tilt and scatter the litter inside the cat cage, or even knock over the litter box, thus requiring the inside of the cat cage to be cleaned. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to address the problem that when cats play and jump in the cat cage, they may bump into the litter box, causing it to tilt and scatter litter inside the cage, or even knock over the litter box, thus requiring cleaning of the inside of the cat cage. This application provides a cat cage.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A cat cage includes a base plate, with casters fixed at each of the four lower corners of the base plate and uprights fixed at each of the four lower corners of the base plate. A fence is fixed between each pair of adjacent uprights, and a protective door is installed on one of the fences. A top plate is fixed to the upper end of the uprights. A placement groove is provided at the upper end of the base plate for placing a litter box. A restraining structure for restricting the litter box is provided inside the placement groove.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when in use, the litter box is placed inside the placement slot and restrained by the limiting structure. Then, the cat is placed in the cat cage, and the safety door is closed. The limiting structure reduces the number of times the cat knocks over the litter box.

[0009] Furthermore, the limiting structure includes two limiting plates installed inside the placement groove, and the limiting plates are arranged symmetrically. An adjusting rod is rotatably connected inside the placement groove. The adjusting rod has two sections of threads with opposite directions. The limiting plates are rotatably connected to the adjusting rod. The two limiting plates are respectively located at the two sections of threads on the adjusting rod. The ends of the limiting plates extend out of the limiting groove and are fixed with adjusting handles.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the cat litter box can be restricted using a limiting structure, which is more conducive to the use of the cat cage, and the process of restricting and unrestricting is more convenient.

[0011] Furthermore, a guide rod is fixed inside the placement groove, and the limiting plate is slidably sleeved on the guide rod.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide rod serves to guide and further support the limiting plate.

[0013] Furthermore, a number of reinforcing strips are fixed on the limiting plate, and the surface of the reinforcing strips is rough.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the reinforcing strip can improve the restraining effect of the limiting plate on the litter box.

[0015] Furthermore, a storage box is installed on the upper part of the base plate, a cover plate is installed on the top of the storage box by screws, and a through hole is opened at the bottom of the storage box. The storage box is used to place activated carbon.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution and placing activated carbon inside the storage box, odors in the cat cage can be absorbed.

[0017] Furthermore, a positioning strip is fixed on the storage box, and a positioning hole is provided on the positioning strip. A positioning post that matches the positioning hole is fixed at the upper end of the top plate.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the storage box can be restricted by using positioning strips and positioning posts.

[0019] Furthermore, two mounting posts are installed on the upper end of the base plate. One of the mounting posts is hinged to the protective door, and the other mounting post has a connecting groove. A connecting block is fixed to the side of the protective plate. A movable groove is opened inside the mounting post, and the movable groove is connected to the connecting groove. A connecting post is slidably arranged inside the movable groove, and a connecting hole adapted to the connecting post is opened on the connecting post.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the protective door can be quickly fixed through connecting columns and other structures, thereby improving the effectiveness of the cat cage.

[0021] Furthermore, a connecting ring is fixed on the connecting column, and a connecting spring is sleeved on the connecting column. The connecting spring is fixedly connected to the mounting column and the connecting ring. A sliding groove is provided on the mounting column, and a moving block is fixed on the connecting ring. The moving block extends out of the sliding groove.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting spring plays a role in supporting and restricting the connecting column, thereby restricting the protective door.

[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial effects:

[0024] 1. After placing the litter box inside the placement slot, turn the adjustment handle to rotate the threaded rod. This causes the two limiting plates to move and approach each other on the threaded rod and guide rod. The two limiting plates will gradually move closer to the litter box until the limiting strips on the limiting plates are in contact with the litter box, thus restricting the litter box. This prevents the cat from easily tipping over the litter box during use, thereby improving the effectiveness of the cat cage.

[0025] 2. Before using the cat cage, place activated charcoal inside the storage box, and then connect the cover to the storage box with screws. During use, the activated charcoal can absorb odors in the cat cage, thereby reducing odors. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.

[0035] This application discloses a cat cage.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 A cat cage includes a base plate 1, with casters 2 fixed at each of the four corners of the lower end of the base plate 1, and uprights 3 fixed at each of the four corners of the lower end of the base plate 1. A fence 4 is fixed between each pair of adjacent uprights 3, and a protective door 5 is installed on one of the fences 4. A top plate 6 is fixed at the upper end of the uprights 3. A placement groove 7 is provided at the upper end of the base plate 1 for placing a litter box. The placement groove 7 has a limiting structure inside for restricting the litter box.

[0037] When using this cat cage, place the litter box inside the placement slot 7 and secure it using the restraint structure. Then, place the necessary items inside the cage, put the cat inside, and finally close the safety door 5. The restraint structure helps to control the litter box, thus reducing the number of times the cat knocks it over.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The limiting structure includes two limiting plates 8 installed inside the placement groove 7. The limiting plates 8 are arranged symmetrically. An adjusting rod 9 is rotatably connected inside the placement groove 7. The adjusting rod 9 has two sections of threads with opposite directions. The limiting plates 8 are rotatably connected to the adjusting rod 9. The two limiting plates 8 are located at the two sections of threads on the adjusting rod 9 respectively. The ends of the limiting plates 8 extend out of the limiting groove and are fixed with adjusting handles 10.

[0039] The placement groove 7 has a guide rod 11 fixed inside, and the limiting plate 8 is slidably sleeved on the guide rod 11.

[0040] In addition, several reinforcing strips 12 are fixed on the limiting plate 8, and the surface of the reinforcing strips 12 is rough.

[0041] After placing the litter box inside the placement slot 7, turn the adjusting handle 10 to rotate the threaded rod. When the threaded rod rotates, the limiting plate 8 is subjected to force. At the same time, the limiting plate 8 is restricted by the guide rod 11, so that the two limiting plates 8 move and approach each other on the threaded rod and the guide rod 11. The two limiting plates 8 that approach each other will gradually move closer to the litter box until the limiting strip on the limiting plate 8 is in contact with the litter box, thereby restricting the litter box. This prevents the cat from easily overturning the litter box during use, thus improving the effectiveness of the cat cage.

[0042] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 A storage box 13 is installed on the upper end of the base plate 1. A cover plate 14 is installed on the top of the storage box 13 by screws. A through hole 15 is opened at the bottom of the storage box 13. The storage box 13 is used to place activated carbon.

[0043] In addition, a positioning strip 16 is fixed on the storage box 13, and a positioning hole is provided on the positioning strip 16. A positioning post 17 that matches the positioning hole is fixed on the upper end of the top plate 6.

[0044] Before using the cat cage, place activated carbon inside the storage box 13. Then, connect the cover 14 to the storage box 13 using screws. During use, the activated carbon absorbs odors in the cat cage, thus reducing odors. When the activated carbon needs to be replaced, pull up the storage box 13 to separate the positioning strip 16 from the positioning post 17. Then, open the cover, pour out the activated carbon that needs to be replaced, and insert the storage box 13 into the top plate 6, ensuring that the positioning strip 16 is aligned with the positioning post 17. This completes the placement of the storage box 13. The storage box 13, with its plug-in structure, facilitates easy replacement of the activated carbon inside.

[0045] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 Two mounting posts 18 are installed on the upper end of the base plate 1. One mounting post 18 is hinged to the protective door 5, and the other mounting post 18 has a connecting groove 19. A connecting block 20 is fixed on the side of the protective plate. A movable groove 21 is opened inside the mounting post 18. The movable groove 21 is connected to the connecting groove 19. A connecting post 22 is slidably arranged inside the movable groove 21. A connecting hole 23 adapted to the connecting post 22 is opened on the connecting post 22.

[0046] The connecting post 22 is fixed with a connecting ring 26, and a connecting spring is sleeved on the connecting post 22. The connecting spring is fixedly connected to the mounting post 18 and the connecting ring 26. The mounting post 18 is provided with a sliding groove 24, and a moving block 25 is fixed on the connecting ring 26. The moving block 25 extends out of the sliding groove 24.

[0047] When closing the protective door, push the moving block 25 upwards, causing it to move the connecting ring 26. The moving ring 26 then moves the moving column, compressing the connecting spring and causing the connecting column 22 to retract into the movable slot 21. Afterwards, close the protective door 5, allowing the connecting block 20 to enter the connecting slot 19. Release the moving block 25; at this point, the connecting spring causes the connecting column 22, connecting ring 26, and moving block 25 to reset. The reset connecting column 22 then enters the connecting hole 23, thus restricting the protective door 5. When it is necessary to open the protective door 5, push the moving block 25 upwards, separating the connecting column 22 from the connecting hole 23, and then pull open the protective door 5. This structure enables quick restriction and release of the protective door 5, improving convenience.

[0048] Working principle: When using this cat cage, place the litter box inside the placement slot 7, then turn the adjusting handle 10 to rotate the threaded rod. As the threaded rod rotates, the limiting plate 8 is subjected to force, and simultaneously, the limiting plate 8 is restrained by the guide rod 11. This causes the two limiting plates 8 to move closer to each other on the threaded rod and guide rod 11. The two limiting plates 8 gradually approach the litter box until the restraining strip on the limiting plate 8 is in contact with the litter box, thus restricting the litter box. Then, place activated carbon inside the storage box 13, and then use screws to attach the cover 14 to the storage box. Connect box 13; finally close the protective door 5. When closing the protective door, push the moving block 25 upward, causing it to move the connecting ring 26. When the connecting ring 26 moves, it causes the moving column to move and compresses the connecting spring, causing the connecting column 22 to retract into the movable groove 21. Then close the protective door 5, causing the connecting block 20 to enter the connecting groove 19. Then release the moving block 25. At this time, under the action of the connecting spring, the connecting column 22, the connecting ring 26, and the moving block 25 are reset. After being reset, the connecting column 22 enters the connecting hole 23, thus restricting the protective door 5.
