Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pet supplies technology, specifically a cross-shaped reinforced pet cage assembly. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the development of society, keeping pets has become a new way for people to relax and enjoy life. Pets can not only entertain our lives, but also provide companionship to eliminate loneliness. In pet keeping, people usually use pet cages to provide pets with a closed and safe space. The use of pet cages is mainly for convenient management, to provide a safe environment and to meet specific health or behavioral needs. In addition, they can also be used as a portable tool for pets when traveling or moving.

[0003] However, existing pet cages have the following drawbacks: many pet cages on the market are usually cuboid structures made of mesh, which take up a lot of space. The mesh structure has low strength, which not only makes them inconvenient to store, increasing storage and transportation costs, but also makes them easy to be damaged by pressure during stacking or transportation.

[0004] Therefore, how to improve existing pet cages to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] One objective of this application is to provide a cross-shaped reinforced pet cage assembly that occupies little space and has high structural strength.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a cross-shaped reinforced pet cage assembly, characterized in that it includes a base, a top cover, four mesh grilles, connectors, locking members, two first cross reinforcing members, and two second cross reinforcing members. The four mesh grilles are respectively detachably connected to the base and the top cover around the perimeter through the connectors to form a cage structure, and adjacent mesh grilles are detachably connected through the connectors. The locking members are disposed on the base or the top cover and are used to restrict the separation of the connectors. The two first cross reinforcing members are disposed on two mesh grilles on the front and rear sides of the base. The two second cross reinforcing members are disposed on two mesh grilles on the left and right sides of the base.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the four ends of the first and second cross-shaped reinforcing members extend to the four corners of the mesh. This has the advantage of strengthening the four weaker corners of the mesh structure, resulting in a better reinforcement effect.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the connector includes a sliding T-shaped groove and a T-shaped slider. The T-shaped groove is disposed on the upper end face and left and right end faces of the first cross reinforcement, the upper end face and left and right end faces of the base, and the left and right end faces of the top cover. Correspondingly, the T-shaped slider is disposed on the lower end face of the first cross reinforcement, the side face of the second cross reinforcement, and the lower end face of the top cover. This allows the two first cross reinforcements to be detachably connected between the base and the top cover, and allows the two second cross reinforcements to be detachably connected to the left and right sides of the base, the top cover, and the first cross reinforcements, thereby realizing the detachable connection between the mesh, the base, and the top cover. Its advantages are: by setting the connectors on the mesh grid on the first cross reinforcement and the second cross reinforcement, the structural stability and strength of the connectors are improved; during assembly, through the sliding connection between the corresponding T-shaped groove and the corresponding T-shaped slider, the two first cross reinforcements are first connected between the base and the top cover, and then the second cross reinforcement is connected to the base, the top cover and the left and right sides of the first cross reinforcement to complete the assembly; in addition, after disassembly, the base and the top cover can be connected, thereby allowing the mesh grid to be stored between the base and the top cover.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the upper end of the T-shaped groove on the base extends to the outside of the base, and both the upper and lower ends of the T-shaped groove on the upper cover extend to the outside of the upper cover. The locking element includes an unlocking groove, a locking block, a driving ramp, a locking spring, and a push button. The unlocking groove is formed on the inner wall of the T-shaped groove on the upper cover. The locking block is slidably disposed between the T-shaped groove and the unlocking groove. The driving ramp is formed at the upper end of the locking block, and the driving ramp, in conjunction with the sliding of the T-shaped slider, pushes the locking block to slide into the unlocking groove. The locking spring is disposed on the upper cover and is used to force the locking block to slide into the T-shaped groove. One end of the push button is connected to the other end of the locking block and extends to the outside of the upper cover. Its advantage is that this achieves the locking function of the locking element.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the mesh includes two mesh plates; both the first and second cross-shaped reinforcing members include two V-shaped reinforcing rods, which are respectively disposed on the two mesh plates, and the bottoms of the two V-shaped reinforcing rods are rotatably connected. The advantage is that this allows the mesh, the first cross-shaped reinforcing member, and the second cross-shaped reinforcing member to be folded and reduced in size, facilitating their storage between the base and the top cover.

[0011] Preferably, both the first and second cross-shaped reinforcing members further include at least two hinges, which are connected to the two gate plates and are located at opposite ends of the gate plates. This improves the stability and strength of the connection between the two gate plates.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the base is a square, basin-shaped structure. Its advantages are that it provides space for both the food and the mesh grille, while preventing pet excrement from leaking out.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the base has feeding ports extending inward on both sides or front and back, and a storage trough is formed at the inner bottom of the base corresponding to the positions of the two feeding ports. The advantages are: this facilitates the feeding and storage of feed, and provides sufficient space through the feeding ports for the mesh to be stored inside the base.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, the top cover is provided with a handle. Its advantage is that it facilitates handling.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are as follows: By setting the connecting member, the base, the top cover, and the mesh can be detachably connected. After disassembly, they can be stacked to reduce the space occupied, facilitating overall storage and transportation. During connection, the locking member improves the stability of the connection, and the first and second cross-shaped reinforcing members enhance the structural stability and strength of the mesh, thereby improving the overall structural stability and strength. Therefore, this cross-shaped reinforced pet cage assembly occupies little space and has high structural strength. Attached Figure Description

[0026] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0027] The terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, in the specification and claims of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or device.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-7One embodiment of this application provides a cross-shaped reinforced pet cage assembly, characterized in that it includes a base 1, a top cover 2, four mesh grilles 3, connectors 4, locking members 5, two first cross reinforcing members 6, and two second cross reinforcing members 7. The four mesh grilles 3 are detachably connected to the base 1 and the top cover 2 around their perimeters via the connectors 4 to form a cage structure, and adjacent mesh grilles 3 are detachably connected via the connectors 4. The locking members 5 are disposed on the base 1 or the top cover 2 and are used to restrict the separation of the connectors 4. The two first cross reinforcing members 6 are disposed on two mesh grilles 3 on the front and rear sides of the base 1. The two second cross reinforcing members 7 are disposed on two mesh grilles 3 on the left and right sides of the base 1. The detachable connection between the base 1, the top cover 2, and the mesh grilles 3 is achieved by using the connectors 4. After disassembly, they can be stacked to reduce the space occupied, facilitating overall storage and transportation. When connected, the locking members 5 improve the stability of the connection, and the first cross reinforcing members 6 and the second cross reinforcing members 7 improve the structural stability and strength of the mesh grilles 3, thereby improving the overall structural stability and strength. Therefore, it can be seen that the cross-shaped reinforced pet cage component occupies little space and has high structural strength.

[0029] Reference Figure 1-2 In some embodiments of this application, the four ends of the first cross-shaped reinforcing member 6 and the second cross-shaped reinforcing member 7 extend to the four corners of the mesh 3, respectively. This strengthens the four corners where the structure of the mesh 3 is relatively weak, resulting in a good reinforcement effect.

[0030] Reference Figure 2-6 In some embodiments of this application, the connector 4 includes a sliding T-shaped groove 41 and a T-shaped slider 42. The T-shaped groove 41 is disposed on the upper end face and left and right end faces of the first cross reinforcement 6, the upper end face and left and right end faces of the base 1, and the left and right end faces of the top cover 2. Correspondingly, the T-shaped slider 42 is disposed on the lower end face of the first cross reinforcement 6, the side face of the second cross reinforcement 7, and the lower end face of the top cover 2. This allows the two first cross reinforcements 6 to be detachably connected between the base 1 and the top cover 2, and the two second cross reinforcements 7 to be detachably connected between the base 1, the top cover 2, and the left and right sides of the first cross reinforcement 6, thereby realizing the detachable connection between the mesh 3, the base 1, and the top cover 2. By setting the connector 4 on the mesh 3 on the first cross reinforcement 6 and the second cross reinforcement 7, the structural stability and strength of the connector 4 are improved. During assembly, the two first cross reinforcements 6 are first connected between the base 1 and the top cover 2 through the sliding connection between the corresponding T-shaped groove 41 and the corresponding T-shaped slider 42. Then, the second cross reinforcement 7 is connected to the base 1, the top cover 2 and the left and right sides of the first cross reinforcement 6 to complete the assembly. In addition, after disassembly, the base 1 and the top cover 2 can be connected, so that the mesh 3 can be stored between the base 1 and the top cover 2.

[0031] Reference Figure 2-4 as well as Figure 6 In some embodiments of this application, the upper end of the T-shaped slide groove 41 on the base 1 extends to the outside of the base 1, and both the upper and lower ends of the T-shaped slide groove 41 on the upper cover 2 extend to the outside of the upper cover 2; the locking member 5 includes an unlocking groove 51, a locking block 52, a driving inclined surface 53, a locking spring 54, and a push button 55. The unlocking groove 51 is formed on the inner wall of the T-shaped slide groove 41 on the upper cover 2; the locking block 52 is slidably disposed between the T-shaped slide groove 41 and the unlocking groove 51; the driving inclined surface 53 is formed on the upper end of the locking block 52, and the driving inclined surface 53 cooperates with the sliding of the T-shaped slider 42 to push the locking block 52 to slide into the unlocking groove 51; the locking spring 54 is disposed on the upper cover 2 and is used to force the locking block 52 to slide into the T-shaped slide groove 41; one end of the push button 55 is connected to the locking block 52 and the other end extends to the outside of the upper cover 2. This achieves the locking function of the locking component 5. When locked, the second cross reinforcement 7 is slidably connected to the base 1, the top cover 2, and the T-shaped groove 41 on the side of the first cross reinforcement 6 via the T-shaped slider 42. At the same time, the T-shaped slider 42 pushes the locking block 52 into the unlocking groove 51 through the driving inclined surface 53. The locking spring 54 deforms until the T-shaped slider 42 on the second cross reinforcement 7 slides to the bottom of the T-shaped groove 41 on the side of the base 1. Then, the locking spring 54 restores its deformation, forcing the locking block 52 to slide out of the unlocking groove 51 and lock the T-shaped slider 42 on the second cross reinforcement 7. This simultaneously locks the base 1, the top cover 2, and the first cross reinforcement 6. When disassembling, the locking block 52 is pushed into the unlocking groove 51 by pushing the button 55, allowing the base 1, the top cover 2, the first cross reinforcement 6, and the second cross reinforcement 7 to be disassembled. It should be noted that the locking spring 54 can be a coil spring or a leaf spring, etc., and its own technology and installation method are existing technologies, which will not be described in detail here.

[0032] Reference Figure 1-2 In some embodiments of this application, the mesh 3 includes two mesh plates 31; the first cross reinforcement 6 and the second cross reinforcement 7 each include two V-shaped reinforcing rods 61, which are respectively disposed on the two mesh plates 31, and the bottoms of the two V-shaped reinforcing rods 61 are rotatably connected. This allows the mesh 3, the first cross reinforcement 6, and the second cross reinforcement 7 to be folded and reduced in size, making it easy to store between the base 1 and the top cover 2.

[0033] Reference Figure 1-2 as well as Figure 5In some embodiments of this application, both the first cross-shaped reinforcing member 6 and the second cross-shaped reinforcing member 7 further include at least two hinges 62. The two hinges 62 are connected to the two grid plates 31, and are located at opposite ends of the grid plates 31. This improves the stability and strength of the connection between the two grid plates 31. Furthermore, the hinges 62 of the first cross-shaped reinforcing member 6 are provided with T-grooves, and the hinges 62 of the second cross-shaped reinforcing member 7 are provided with T-sliders, enabling the detachable connection between the hinges 62 of the first cross-shaped reinforcing member 6 and the second cross-shaped reinforcing member 7, further enhancing the stability and strength of the connection.

[0034] Reference Figure 1-2 as well as Figure 7 In some embodiments of this application, the base 1 is a square basin-shaped structure. This provides space for accommodating feed and the mesh 3, while also preventing pet excrement from leaking out.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 7 In some embodiments of this application, feeding ports 11 extend from the left and right sides or front and back sides of the base 1, and storage troughs 12 are formed at the positions of the two feeding ports 11 on the inner bottom of the base 1. This facilitates the feeding and storage of feed, and provides sufficient space through the feeding ports 11 to facilitate the storage of the mesh 3 inside the base 1.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 In some embodiments of this application, the top cover 2 is provided with a handle 21 for easy handling.

[0037] In summary, this cross-shaped reinforced pet cage assembly occupies little space and has high structural strength.
