[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 6 A preferred embodiment of the connecting member for a fence in this utility model includes: a first connecting member 1, which has a first insertion hole 2 and a second insertion hole 3. The first insertion hole 2 is used to connect with a first insertion rod 6 connecting a first fence piece 4 and a second fence piece 5, and the second insertion hole 3 is used to connect with a second insertion rod 7 connecting a third fence piece 8; a second connecting member 9, which has a third insertion hole 10 and a fourth insertion hole 11. The third insertion hole 10 is used to connect with the first insertion rod 6 connecting the first fence piece 4 and the second fence piece 5, and the fourth insertion hole 11 is used to connect with the second insertion rod 7 connecting the third fence piece 8; and a connecting rod 12, which connects the first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member 9, wherein the connecting rod 12 is configured to align the first insertion hole 2 and the third insertion hole 10 with the first insertion rod 6, and align the second insertion hole 3 and the fourth insertion hole 11 with the second insertion rod 7.

[0028] The fence connector of this utility model, by setting a first connecting member 1 and a second connecting member 9 to connect a first insert 6 and a second insert 7, enables the connection of three fences at the same connection structure, thereby better realizing the partitioned layout of the fences. Furthermore, the fence connector of this utility model is easy to install when connecting three fences, requiring no additional tools, and the installation structure is stable. In addition, the fence connector of this utility model, by setting a connecting rod 12, connects the first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member 9, providing excellent stability and anti-torsion effects.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment of the connecting member for the fence in this utility model, it may also have the following additional technical features:

[0030] Reference Figure 2 In one embodiment, one end 13 of the connecting rod is connected to the position between the first insertion hole 2 and the second insertion hole 3 of the first connecting member 1, and the other end 14 of the connecting rod is connected to the position between the third insertion hole 10 and the fourth insertion hole 11 of the second connecting member 9. This improves the overall structural stability of the connecting member for the fence. In other embodiments, one end 13 of the connecting rod may be connected to another suitable position of the first connecting member 1, and the other end 14 of the connecting rod may be connected to another suitable position of the second connecting member 9.

[0031] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the first connecting member 1 has a top surface 15, a bottom surface 16, and a side surface. There is a thickness between the top surface 15 and the bottom surface 16. The first insertion hole 2 and the second insertion hole 3 penetrate the top surface 15 and the bottom surface 16. The side surface has a front surface 17, a left side surface 18, a right side surface 19, and a back surface 20. The front surface 17 and the back surface 20 are parallel planes, and the left side surface 18 and the right side surface 19 are both curved surfaces. This structure allows the connecting member for the fence to better match the fence structure during installation, making the installation process easier. In other embodiments, the first connecting member 1 may employ other suitable structures.

[0032] In one embodiment, the two ends of the first socket 2 are chamfered. Because the two ends of the first socket 2 are wider, when the first insert 6 is inserted into the first socket 2, even if the central axis of the first insert 6 is not perfectly aligned with the central axis of the first socket 2, one end or the other end of the first socket 2 can guide the central axis of the first socket 2 to coincide with the central axis of the first insert 6. This allows the first insert 6 to be inserted into the first socket 2, resulting in high installation efficiency and more convenient operation. Furthermore, the first insert 6 can be inserted from either end of the first socket 2. In other embodiments, the two ends of the first socket 2 may not have chamfered.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 In one embodiment, the connecting rod 12 is a hollow tube structure with a hollow space 21. This hollow tube structure significantly reduces the weight of the connecting parts for the fence, saves manufacturing materials, makes installation easier and more labor-saving, and facilitates the handling of the connecting parts for the fence. In other embodiments, the connecting rod 12 may be a solid structure or may adopt other suitable structures; it is not limited to these.

[0034] In one embodiment, one end 13 of the connecting rod is welded to the first connecting member 1, and the other end 14 of the connecting rod is welded to the second connecting member 9, making the structure of the connecting member for the fence of this utility model more stable. In other embodiments, one end 13 of the connecting rod can be connected to the first connecting member 1 using other suitable connection methods, and the other end 14 of the connecting rod can be connected to the second connecting member 9 using other suitable connection methods.

[0035] In one embodiment, the first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member 9 are of the same shape and size. This allows the fence connector of this invention to be installed without distinguishing between upright and inverted positions, greatly improving the efficiency of installation. Furthermore, since the first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member 9 are of the same shape and size, manufacturing the fence connector of this invention is easier. In other embodiments, the first connecting member 1 and the second connecting member 9 may have different shapes and sizes.

[0036] It is understandable that during the welding of one end 13 of the connecting rod to the first connecting member 1, and during the welding of the other end 14 of the connecting rod to the second connecting member 9, a large amount of heat will be generated. The gas inside the internal space 21 of the connecting rod 12 of the tubular structure will expand due to the heat. If there is no channel for the gas to escape from the internal space 21 of the connecting rod 12 of the tubular structure, pores will appear at the weld. Therefore, referring to Figure 2 In one embodiment, the first connecting member 1 is provided with a first through hole 22, which penetrates the first connecting member 1 and communicates with the hollow space 21. Thus, during the welding process of one end 13 of the connecting rod to the first connecting member 1, the heated gas inside the hollow tube structure connecting rod 12 can be discharged through the first through hole 22, thereby preventing porosity at the weld. In other embodiments, the first connecting member 1 may not have a first through hole 22; instead, other structures may be used to discharge the gas from the internal space 21 of the tube structure connecting rod 12.

[0037] In one embodiment, the second connecting member 9 is provided with a second through hole 23, which penetrates the second connecting member 9 and communicates with the hollow space 21. Thus, during the welding process of the other end 14 of the connecting rod to the second connecting member 9, the heated gas inside the hollow tube structure connecting rod 12 can be discharged through the second through hole 23, thereby preventing porosity at the weld. In other embodiments, the second connecting member 9 may not have a second through hole 23; instead, other structures may be used to discharge the gas from the internal space 21 of the tube structure connecting rod 12.

[0038] Without causing conflict, those skilled in the art can freely combine and use the above-mentioned additional technical features.

[0039] Reference Figure 5 This utility model provides a pet fence, characterized in that it includes: a first fence piece 4; a second fence piece 5; a third fence piece 8; the aforementioned connecting member for the fence; a first insert 6 for inserting into the first insert hole 2 and the third insert hole 10 in the connecting member and the insert holes of the first fence piece 4 and the second fence piece 5 to connect the connecting member, the first fence piece 4 and the second fence piece 5; and a second insert 7 for inserting into the second insert hole 3 and the fourth insert hole 11 in the connecting member and the insert hole of the third fence piece 8 to connect the third fence piece 8 with the first fence piece 4 and the second fence piece 5.

[0040] This pet fence, including the aforementioned connecting components, also offers the following advantages: By providing a first connecting member 1 and a second connecting member 9 to connect the first insert rod 6 and the second insert rod 7, three fences can be connected at the same connection structure, allowing for better partitioning of the fences.
