[0021] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features of the present utility model can be combined with each other.

[0022] It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of this invention.

[0023] The following describes some embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-6 An adjustable-width pet door includes a door frame 1, a movable door 2 hinged to the upper side of the door frame 1, and a switch knob 3 for adjusting the opening direction of the movable door 2 installed on the lower side of the door frame 1. Laterally adjustable fixed frames 4 are installed on both sides of the door frame 1. By adjusting the position of the fixed frames 4, the overall width of the pet door can be adjusted. During use, if adjustments to the pet door are needed, such as changing the installation position or replacing it with a new pet door, the adjustable-width design makes operation more convenient. The pet door can be easily removed from its original installation position, and reinstalled after adjusting the width according to new needs. This is especially useful when replacing the door with a window of a different width, allowing for direct installation, saving time and costs, and reducing damage to the original structure.

[0025] The door frame 1 has extension portions 5 on both sides, and the fixed frame 4 has a first insertion port 6 and a second insertion port 7 on both sides respectively. The first insertion port 6 is inserted into the side of the extension portion 5, and the depth of the first insertion port 6 is the adjustment dimension of the fixed frame 4. The second insertion port 7 is inserted into the inside of the door / window. The upper and lower ends of the extension portion 5 are equipped with adjustment devices 8 for adjusting the position of the fixed frame 4. The adjustment device 8 includes a housing 9, and a support rod 11 with a pushing force applied by a spring 10 is installed inside the housing 9. The end of the support rod 11 abuts against the fixed frame 4. One end of the spring 10 is fitted with a limiting ring 12. One end of the spring 10 abuts against the limiting ring 12, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the housing 9. An adjusting seat 13 is provided at the end of the housing 9 away from the fixing frame 4. The support rod 11 passes through the adjusting seat 13. A threaded hole 14 is provided on the adjusting seat 13. An adjusting knob 15 is threaded into the threaded hole 14. An insert shaft 16 is installed on the adjusting knob 15, passing through the threaded hole 14. A notch 17 is provided on the side wall of the insert shaft 16 corresponding to the support rod 11. The notch 17 abuts against the side wall of the support rod 11.

[0026] The size of the extension part 5 can be selected according to different usage scenarios. Once selected, the extension part 5 is fixed and cannot be adjusted. If adjustment is required, the extension part 5 needs to be replaced. The extension part 5 consists of a profile frame and a baffle located in the middle of the profile frame. The profile frame is fixed to the door frame 1 by screws, buckles, etc. The baffle can be made of a transparent material, such as acrylic sheet, which can be used in window situations to reduce the light-blocking area of ​​the pet door.

[0027] When adjusting the width of the pet door, directly push the fixed frame 4 to slide it relative to the extension part 5. The support rod 11 is pushed, and the spring 10 is further compressed. At this time, by turning the adjustment knob 15, the insertion shaft 16 moves, and the notch 17 moves synchronously. The notch 17 presses against the support rod 11. The friction between the notch 17 and the support rod 11 is greater than the return force of the spring 10, and the support rod 11 is fixed. After installation, turn the adjustment knob 15 in the opposite direction, and the notch 17 moves in the opposite direction. The friction between the notch 17 and the support rod 11 gradually decreases until the friction is less than the return force of the spring 10. The spring 10 extends and returns to its original position. Through the support rod 11, the fixed frame 4 is pushed outward until the second insertion port 7 abuts against the inside of the door or window, thus completing the installation.

[0028] The support rod 11 has a first annular groove 18 corresponding to the notch 17. When the first annular groove 18 is aligned with the notch 17, a channel is formed for the insertion shaft 16 to pass through. When installing the insertion shaft 16, the support rod 11 needs to be pushed so that the first annular groove 18 is aligned with the notch 17 to form a circular hole-shaped channel. At this time, the insertion shaft 16 can be inserted into the channel. When disassembling the insertion shaft 16, the support rod 11 also needs to be pushed so that the first annular groove 18 is aligned with the notch 17.

[0029] When the first annular groove 18 is misaligned with the notch 17, a portion of the support rod 11 can be seen when viewed from the axis of the channel (e.g., Figure 3 As shown in A).

[0030] The switch knob 3 is located on the inner side of the movable door 2 and is provided with symmetrical first limiting parts 19 and second limiting parts 20. The switch knob 3 is located on the outer side of the movable door 2 and is provided with a third limiting part 21. One side of the third limiting part 21 is located between the first limiting part 19 and the second limiting part 20, and the other side of the third limiting part 21 is aligned with the first limiting part 19. By turning the switch knob 3, the first limiting part 19, the second limiting part 20, or the third limiting part 21 can be turned upwards. When the first limiting part 19 is in the upper position, the part of the third limiting part 21 aligned with the first limiting part 19 is also in the upper position. At this time, the inner and outer sides of the movable door 2 are restricted by the first limiting part 19 and the third limiting part 21, respectively. The movable door 2 cannot be opened; when the second limiting part 20 is at the top, the inner side of the movable door 2 is restricted by the second limiting part 20, and the outer side of the movable door 2 is unrestricted. At this time, the movable door 2 can be opened outward; when the part between the first limiting part 19 and the second limiting part 20 is at the top, the part of the third limiting part 21 between the first limiting part 19 and the second limiting part 20 is at the top, the outer side of the movable door 2 is restricted by the third limiting part 21, and the inner side of the movable door 2 is unrestricted. At this time, the movable door 2 can be opened inward; when the first limiting part 19, the second limiting part 20 and the third limiting part 21 are not at the top, the movable door 2 is unrestricted inside and out, and both the inner and outer sides of the movable door 2 can be opened.

[0031] The edge of the movable door 2 is provided with insulating cotton, and the side wall of the door frame 1 is provided with flexible protrusions 22 corresponding to the insulating cotton. The insulating cotton is used to fill the gap between the door frame 1 and the movable door 2 to prevent cold outdoor air from entering the room through the gap. It can be used in cold regions. The width of the flexible protrusions 22 is smaller than the width of the door frame 1, which can reduce the contact area between the insulating cotton and the door frame 1 and reduce the resistance to opening the movable door 2.
