[0031] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 The utility model discloses a folding pet container, which comprises a basin body 100, wherein the basin body 100 has a rectangular cavity 110 with an opening upward; a cover 200 is detachably installed at the opening of the rectangular cavity 110, and a containing space is formed between the cover 200 and the basin body 100; the cover 200 comprises a front side plate 210, a left side plate 220, a rear side plate 230 and a right side plate 240 which are connected in sequence; the left side plate 220 and the right side plate 240 each comprise two hinge plates 250 which are connected in rotation; the two hinge plates 250 are connected to the front side plate 210 and the rear side plate 230 in rotation respectively; and the two adjacent hinge plates 250 are folded to make the front side plate 210 and the rear side plate 230 close to each other; the height dimension of the front side plate 210, the rear side plate 230 and the hinge plate 250 is less than or equal to the width dimension of the rectangular cavity 110; and the length dimension of the cover 200 is less than or equal to the length dimension of the rectangular cavity 110.

[0032] Referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 When the folding pet container is stored, the two adjacent hinge plates 250 are folded to make the front side plate 210 and the rear side plate 230 close to each other; since the height dimension of the cover 200 is less than or equal to the width dimension of the rectangular cavity 110, and the length dimension of the cover 200 is less than or equal to the length dimension of the rectangular cavity 110, the cover 200 can be folded to a small thickness, i.e. the depth of the basin body 100 is small enough to contain the cover 200, so that the storage volume of the folding pet container is small. Figure 1 and Figure 3 When the folding pet container is used, the two adjacent hinge plates 250 are unfolded to make the front side plate 210 and the rear side plate 230 away from each other, and the front side plate 210, the left side plate 220, the rear side plate 230 and the right side plate 240 form the cover 200; since the height dimension of the cover 200 is close to the width dimension of the rectangular cavity 110, the volume of the containing space formed is large, which improves the use experience of the pet, and the folding pet container has the effects of small storage volume and large unfolding volume.

[0033] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4In some embodiments of the utility model, the front side plate 210, the left side plate 220, the rear side plate 230 and the right side plate 240 form a fence assembly with vertical channels, the cover 200 further comprises a top plate 260 rotatably connected to the front side plate 210 or the rear side plate 230, and the top plate 260 can be rotated to cover the port of the vertical channel or to the side of the front side plate 210 or the rear side plate 230. It can be understood that the fence assembly and the top plate 260 together form the cover 200, so that the accommodation space is completely closed, thereby providing a relatively independent space for pets. Moreover, when folding the cover 200, only the two adjacent hinge plates 250 are folded together, the front side plate 210 and the rear side plate 230 can be close to each other, and then the top plate 260 is rotated to one side of the front side plate 210 or the rear side plate 230, and the cover 200 is still flat after folding. Specifically, in order to improve the stability of the cover 200 after unfolding, a damping structure should be provided at the rotating connection between any two parts, for example, a rubber ring or by tight fitting assembly.

[0034] Referring to Figures 1 to 4 In some embodiments of the utility model, the pot body 100 is formed with an outwardly folded annular flange portion 120 at the opening edge of the rectangular cavity 110, the inner circumferential wall of the lower end of the fence assembly surrounds the outer circumference of the annular flange portion 120, and a limiting installation structure is arranged between the fence assembly and the annular flange portion 120. It can be understood that the unfolded fence assembly is rested on the annular flange portion 120 of the pot body 100, and the limiting installation structure realizes the detachable connection between the pot body 100 and the cover 200, and also prevents the relative movement of the two in the front-back and left-right directions.

[0035] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments of the utility model, the limiting installation structure comprises a strip-shaped support plate 251 formed at the lower end of the inner wall of the hinge plate 250, the strip-shaped support plate 251 is downwardly abutted on the two side edges of the width direction of the annular flange portion 120, the inner side wall of the front side plate 210 and the rear side plate 230 is respectively provided with a limiting plate 270 abutting on the inner side wall of the pot body 100, and the outer side wall of the front side plate 210 and the rear side plate 230 is respectively provided with an elastic clamping plate 280 abutting on the outer side wall of the pot body 100, and the inner wall of the elastic clamping plate 280 is formed with a strip-shaped anti-dropping plate 281 opposite to the lower end surface of the annular flange portion 120. It can be understood that the strip-shaped support plate 251 is used to place the cover 200 on the annular flange portion 120, the elastic clamping plate 280 and the limiting plate 270 together clamp the front side wall and the rear side wall of the pot body 100, and the strip-shaped anti-dropping plate 281 prevents the cover 200 from being separated upwardly relative to the pot body 100.

[0036] Referring to Figures 2 to 4 In some embodiments of the utility model, in order to simplify production and processing flow, reduce production cost, the front side plate 210, corresponding the limiting plate 270 and the elastic clamping plate 280 are integrated plastic structure, the rear side plate 230, corresponding the limiting plate 270 and the elastic clamping plate 280 are integrated plastic structure, a part of the front side plate 210, a part of the rear side plate 230 respectively constitute corresponding the elastic clamping plate 280, the lower edge of the front side plate 210 is equipped with the clearance groove 282 that extends upwards respectively in the both sides of corresponding the elastic clamping plate 280, the lower edge of the rear side plate 230 is equipped with the clearance groove 282 that extends upwards respectively in the both sides of corresponding the elastic clamping plate 280. It can be understood that when annular turn-up part 120 is inserted between elastic clamping plate 280 and limiting plate 270, due to the existence of clearance groove 282, elastic clamping plate 280 can be deformed outwardly to make annular turn-up part 120 pass over strip-shaped anti-drop plate 281, then elastic clamping plate 280 resets to clamp and fix annular turn-up part 120 with limiting plate 270.

[0037] Referring to Figure 2 In some embodiments of the utility model, the front side plate 210, the left side plate 220, the rear side plate 230 and the right side plate 240 are all trapezoidal plates that are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, which is conducive to reducing the size of the top plate 260, while ensuring that the cover 200 can be completely accommodated in the rectangular cavity 110; the outer side wall of the upper end of the rear side plate 230 and the top plate 260 are rotationally connected through the first pivot assembly 300 extending along the length direction of the top plate 260, when the cover 200 is stored, first rotate the top plate 260 around the first pivot assembly 300 to flip to the outside of the rear side plate 230, and then fold the adjacent two hinge plates 250 to make the front side plate 210 and the rear side plate 230 close to each other.

[0038] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments of the utility model, in order to facilitate the entry and exit of pets such as cats and dogs into the accommodation space, a pet entrance and exit is formed in the middle of the front side plate 210, the upper edge of the pet entrance and exit is rotationally connected with a cover plate 400, the cover plate 400 can shield the pet entrance and exit under the action of gravity, and a footboard 211 is arranged on the lower edge of the pet entrance and exit of the front side plate 210 and extends towards the inside of the accommodation space, and the footboard 211 covers sand leakage holes 212 that are in communication with the rectangular cavity 110. It can be understood that when a cat jumps in from the pet entrance and exit, the cover plate 400 can be pushed away, and when the cat's paw steps on the footboard 211, foreign matter can enter the bottom of the basin 100 through the sand leakage holes 212.

[0039] Referring toFigure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7 In some embodiments of the present application, a U-shaped block 500 is arranged between the mutually approaching side edges of two adjacent hinge plates 250, both ends of the U-shaped block 500 are provided with a second pivot shaft 510 extending along the height direction of the cover 200, and the inner wall of the hinge plate 250 is provided with a second shaft sleeve matched with both ends of the second pivot shaft 510. The above structure can ensure that the joint between the two hinge plates 250 is as small as possible, and the interference phenomenon does not occur when the hinge plates 250 rotate relative to each other.

[0040] Referring to Figure 7 In some embodiments of the present application, the second shaft sleeve comprises two second side ears 252 arranged along the height direction of the inner wall of the hinge plate 250, both the second side ears 252 are provided with a second shaft hole 253 corresponding to both ends of the second pivot shaft 510, the second side ear 252 is provided with a second guide slope 254 in communication with one side of the second shaft hole 253, both ends of the second pivot shaft 510 are provided with a second wedge surface 511 matched with the second guide slope 254, the second wedge surface 511 moves along the second guide slope 254 to make the second pivot shaft 510 enter the second shaft hole 253, and the second wedge surface 511 is dislocated from the second guide slope 254 when the two adjacent hinge plates 250 are folded or unfolded. It can be understood that during assembly, the second wedge surface 511 at both ends of the second pivot shaft 510 is respectively abutted against the corresponding second guide slope 254 and climbs along the second guide slope 254, in this process, the two second side ears 252 are elastically deformed and move away from each other, so that the second pivot shaft 510 smoothly enters the two second shaft holes 253, and then the second side ear 252 restores the elastic deformation, so that the assembly is very convenient. Moreover, after the two adjacent hinge plates 250 are unfolded or folded relative to each other, the second wedge surface 511 and the corresponding second guide slope 254 are relatively dislocated in the angular position, which eliminates the possibility of the second pivot shaft 510 slipping out of the second shaft hole 253.

[0041] The connection structure between the above-mentioned first pivot assembly 300 and the second shaft sleeve and the second pivot shaft 510 is basically the same, and will not be described further here.

[0042] Referring to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 7In some embodiments of the utility model, in order to make the outline of cover 200 more smooth, avoid scratching the skin of user, the hinge plate 250 is equipped with arc plate part near one side of front side plate 210 or rear side plate 230, the inner wall of arc plate part is formed with third shaft sleeve 610 extending along the height direction of cover 200, the inner wall of front side plate 210 or rear side plate 230 is equipped with third pivot 620 matched with third shaft sleeve 610. It needs to be explained that the connecting structure between third shaft sleeve 610 and third pivot 620 is basically same with the connecting structure between second shaft sleeve and second pivot 510, and will not be further described here.

[0043] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily, and to make the description simple, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are not described, however, as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist contradictory, it should be considered that the range of the present application is recorded.

[0044] Although the embodiments of the utility model have been shown and described, those skilled in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, replacements and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and purposes of the utility model, the scope of the utility model is defined by the claims and its equivalents.
