Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of pet storage box technology, and more specifically, relates to a pet cat and dog storage box. Background Technology
[0002] Many people enjoy bringing their pets along when shopping, traveling, or dining out, as it adds to the enjoyment of the trip. However, some public places do not allow pets, requiring pets to be sent home or temporarily boarded. Existing technology includes pet boarding lockers for temporary pet storage. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN219500175U discloses an unattended pet boarding center that allows pets to be temporarily cared for in its storage units, thus addressing the temporary boarding needs of pets.
[0003] To meet the diverse needs of pets, Chinese utility model patent CN214175217U discloses an intelligent shared pet temporary storage locker. This locker includes two different sizes to accommodate pets of varying sizes. This demonstrates that while fulfilling storage requirements, the pet storage locker also focuses on addressing the need for pets to adapt to different body types.
[0004] However, existing pet lockers typically provide rectangular cubicle spaces for pets. Since different animal species have different habits—for example, cats tend to climb, while dogs prefer to stay on the ground—the existing rectangular lockers don't adequately suit the specific needs of cats and dogs, leaving room for improvement in pet comfort. Simply adding more rectangular cubicles, while expanding the pet's space by adding different climbing frames to accommodate their needs, results in low space utilization. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this application provides a pet cat and dog storage box. Based on the different habits of cats and dogs, storage boxes with different structural shapes suitable for cats and dogs are fitted together, which increases the comfort of cats and dogs while making full use of space and ensuring the compactness of the storage box structure.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this application provides a pet cat and dog storage box, including a storage box body, which includes a cat storage compartment and a dog storage compartment. The cat storage compartment has a main cat compartment and a top extension compartment that extends laterally from the top of the main cat compartment. The dog storage compartment has a main dog compartment and a bottom extension compartment that extends laterally from the bottom of the main dog compartment. The cat storage compartment and the dog storage compartment are fitted together to form a cuboid storage unit.
[0007] With the above arrangement, the cat storage compartment expands the cat's overhead play area through the top extension compartment, while the dog storage compartment expands the dog's bottom play area through the bottom extension compartment. This not only expands the play space but also better accommodates the different habits of cats and dogs. Furthermore, the cat and dog storage compartments interlock to form a rectangular storage unit, which offers higher space utilization compared to simply increasing the play space of a rectangular box. The height of the main cat and dog compartments is also guaranteed, ensuring that the pets do not feel cramped.
[0008] Optionally, the storage unit includes a cat storage compartment and a dog storage compartment. The cat storage compartment includes a main cat compartment and a top extension compartment, and the dog storage compartment includes a main dog compartment and a bottom extension compartment. The top extension compartment and the main cat compartment are combined to form an inverted L-shaped cat storage compartment, and the bottom extension compartment and the main dog compartment are combined to form an L-shaped dog storage compartment.
[0009] Optionally, the top extension compartment is located directly above the bottom extension compartment, and both the top and bottom extension compartments are located between the main cat compartment and the main dog compartment, so as to achieve the interlocking of the cat storage compartment and the dog storage compartment.
[0010] Optionally, the top extension compartment is located directly above the main dog compartment, and the main cat compartment is located directly above the bottom extension compartment, to achieve another interlocking structure between the cat and dog storage compartments.
[0011] Optionally, the storage unit includes one cat storage compartment and two dog storage compartments. Each cat storage compartment includes a main cat compartment and two top extension compartments. Each dog storage compartment includes a main dog compartment and a bottom extension compartment. The two top extension compartments are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top of the main cat compartment to form a T-shaped cat storage compartment. The bottom extension compartment and the main dog compartment are combined to form an L-shaped dog storage compartment. The cat storage compartment and the two dog storage compartments are arranged horizontally, with the cat storage compartment located between the two dog storage compartments. The two top extension compartments in the cat storage compartment are located directly above the bottom extension compartments in the two dog storage compartments.
[0012] Considering that the number of users who actually bring dogs out is greater than the number of users who bring cats, and that the demand for dog storage is greater than the demand for cat storage in public places such as shopping malls, the above arrangement makes the number of dog storage pods twice the number of cat storage pods to better meet the demand. It also ensures that the cat and dog storage pods can be interlocked to form a rectangular storage unit, which can improve space utilization while ensuring space for pets to move around.
[0013] Optionally, the storage unit has several groups, and the several groups of storage units are arranged in an array on the main body of the storage box to form a pet cat and dog storage box that can store multiple pets at the same time.
[0014] Optionally, the main cat compartment is equipped with a cat tree and a litter box to accommodate the cat's climbing ability and litter box usage habits. The bottom of the main dog compartment has a mezzanine with a waste drawer, and the floor of the main dog compartment has drainage holes connecting to the waste drawer to collect the dog's excrement.
[0015] Both the main cat and dog compartments are equipped with automatic feeders and monitoring cameras. The top extension compartment contains cat beds, and the bottom extension compartment contains dog beds. Ultraviolet disinfection lamps are installed in all three compartments. Users can remotely monitor their pets' status via their mobile phones using the monitoring cameras. The automatic feeders can be used to feed the pets. The cat and dog beds provide space for cats and dogs to lie down and rest.
[0016] Optionally, the main cat compartment has a first door at the front, the top extension compartment has a second door at the front, the main dog compartment has a third door at the front, and the bottom extension compartment has a fourth door at the front. This ensures that when retrieving the pet after storage, it can be easily retrieved regardless of whether the cat is in the main cat compartment or the top extension compartment, or whether the dog is in the main dog compartment or the bottom extension compartment, preventing situations where the pet is hidden inside and difficult to retrieve.
[0017] The main body of the locker is also equipped with an operation panel that can display a QR code. The first, second, third and fourth compartment doors are all equipped with electromagnetic locks. Users can control the electromagnetic locks of the first, second, third or fourth compartment doors to open by scanning the QR code with their mobile phones.
[0018] Optionally, the side walls of both the main cat and dog compartments are made of perforated grilles to ensure ventilation while reducing the pet's feeling of confinement. The side walls of the top and bottom extension compartments are made of opaque panels, allowing them to serve as hiding spaces for shy pets.
[0019] The advantages of the technical solution in this application compared to the prior art are as follows:
[0020] The cat storage compartment expands the overhead space for cats with an extended top compartment, while the dog storage compartment expands the underside space for dogs with an extended bottom compartment. This design not only increases the pets' activity space but also better accommodates cats' love of climbing and dogs' preference for moving on the ground. Furthermore, the cat and dog storage compartments interlock to form a rectangular storage unit, resulting in higher space utilization compared to simply increasing the rectangular space. The height of the main cat and dog compartments is also sufficient to prevent the pets from feeling cramped. This pet storage box can be used in shopping malls, pet boarding shops, and other similar locations, providing more adaptable cat and dog storage conditions with a relatively small footprint, making it a more cost-effective option for individual entrepreneurs.

[0029] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects to be solved by this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0030] Example 1:
[0031] This embodiment provides a pet cat and dog storage box, based on Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the storage box includes a main body 1, which comprises a cat storage compartment 2 and a dog storage compartment 3. The cat storage compartment 2 is used to store cats, and the dog storage compartment 3 is used to store dogs. The cat storage compartment 2 has a main cat compartment 4 and a top extension compartment 5 extending laterally from the top of the main cat compartment 4. The dog storage compartment 3 has a main dog compartment 6 and a bottom extension compartment 7 extending laterally from the bottom of the main dog compartment 6. Since cats have a tendency to climb, while dogs are more accustomed to ground-level activities, this arrangement expands the cat's overhead activity area through the top extension compartment 5, and expands the dog's under-ground activity area through the bottom extension compartment 7. This expands the activity space while better accommodating the different habits of cats and dogs. Furthermore, the cat storage compartment 2 and the dog storage compartment 3 interlock to form a cuboid storage unit 8, resulting in higher space utilization compared to simply increasing the activity space of a cuboid. The height of the main cat compartment 4 and the main dog compartment 6 is also sufficient to ensure that the pets will not feel cramped.
[0032] Figure 1 The two sets of dashed lines represent the directions of the cat storage compartment 2 and the dog storage compartment 3, respectively. In this embodiment, the storage unit 8 includes a cat storage compartment 2 and a dog storage compartment 3. The cat storage compartment 2 includes a main cat compartment 4 and a top extension compartment 5, and the dog storage compartment 3 includes a main dog compartment 6 and a bottom extension compartment 7. The top extension compartment 5 and the main cat compartment 4 combine to form an inverted L-shaped cat storage compartment 2, and the bottom extension compartment 7 and the main dog compartment 6 combine to form an L-shaped dog storage compartment 3. The top extension compartment 5 is located directly above the bottom extension compartment 7, and both the top extension compartment 5 and the bottom extension compartment 7 are located between the main cat compartment 4 and the main dog compartment 6, so that the cat storage compartment 2 and the dog storage compartment 3 can be fitted together to form a cuboid structure storage unit 8.
[0033] In practical applications, based on Figure 2 As shown, the storage unit 8 has several groups, such as two groups or three groups. Several groups of storage units 8 are arranged in an array on the main body 1 of the storage box to form a pet cat and dog storage box that can simultaneously accommodate multiple pets. The specific array arrangement can be... Figure 2 The vertical arrangement shown can also be a front-to-back or left-to-right arrangement.
[0034] As an alternative to this embodiment, based on Figure 3 As shown, each storage unit 8 can also be arranged such that the top extension compartment 5 is located directly above the main dog compartment 6 and the main cat compartment 4 is located directly above the bottom extension compartment 7, so as to realize another way in which the cat storage compartment 2 and the dog storage compartment 3 are interlocked to form a cuboid structure storage unit 8.
[0035] Furthermore, based on Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the main cat compartment 4 is equipped with a cat climbing frame 15 and a litter box 16 to accommodate the cat's climbing ability and its habit of using the litter box 16 for elimination. The main dog compartment 6 has a mezzanine 17 at its bottom, with a waste drawer 18 installed in the mezzanine 17. Drainage holes 19 connected to the waste drawer 18 are distributed on the floor of the main dog compartment 6 to collect the dog's waste. This allows the cat and dog storage compartments 2 and 3 to better meet the activity and elimination needs of cats and dogs.
[0036] Meanwhile, both the main cat compartment 4 and the main dog compartment 6 are equipped with automatic feeders 20 and monitoring cameras 21. The top extension compartment 5 contains a cat bed mat 22, and the bottom extension compartment 7 contains a dog bed mat 23. Ultraviolet disinfection lamps 24 are installed in all three compartments. Users can remotely monitor their pets' status via their mobile phones using the monitoring cameras 21. The automatic feeders 20 can be used to feed the pets. The cat bed mats 22 and dog bed mats 23 provide space for cats and dogs to lie down and rest.
[0037] Furthermore, based on Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the main cat compartment 4 has a first door 9 on its front, the top extension compartment 5 has a second door 10 on its front, the main dog compartment 6 has a third door 10 on its front, and the bottom extension compartment 7 has a fourth door 12 on its front. Each door can be opened independently. If doors were only provided in the main cat compartment 4 and the main dog compartment 6, the cat might hide inside the top extension compartment 5 and be difficult to retrieve. Similarly, the dog might hide inside the bottom extension compartment 7 and be difficult to retrieve. The arrangement of the first, second, third, and fourth doors ensures that when retrieving a pet after storage, the cat can be easily retrieved regardless of whether it is in the main cat compartment 4 or the top extension compartment 5, and the dog can be easily retrieved regardless of whether it is in the main dog compartment 6 or the bottom extension compartment 7, preventing the pet from hiding inside and being difficult to retrieve. The first compartment door 9, the second compartment door 10, the third compartment door 10, and the fourth compartment door 12 can be made transparent to reduce the pet's sense of oppression.
[0038] In this embodiment, based on Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the side walls of the main cat compartment 4 and the main dog compartment 6 are both perforated grilles 25, allowing them to connect with the outside. The side walls of the top extension compartment 5 and the bottom extension compartment 7 are made of opaque panels. This design creates relatively open and well-ventilated spaces for the main cat compartment 4 and the main dog compartment 6, reducing the feeling of confinement for pets. Meanwhile, the relatively enclosed spaces of the top extension compartment 5 and the bottom extension compartment 7 provide hiding places for shy pets. At the same time, the opaque panel side walls of the top extension compartment 5 and the bottom extension compartment 7 completely isolate the cat storage compartment 2 and the dog storage compartment 3.
[0039] As a locker used in public places, the main body 1 of the locker is also equipped with an operation panel 14 that can display a QR code. The first compartment door 9, the second compartment door 10, the third compartment door 10, and the fourth compartment door 12 are all equipped with electromagnetic locks 13. Users can control the electromagnetic locks 13 of the first compartment door 9, the second compartment door 10, the third compartment door 10, or the fourth compartment door 12 to open by scanning a QR code with their mobile phones. The operation panel 14 can be used as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the device can be installed as a standalone unit next to the main body 1 of the pet storage box, or it can be integrated into the main body 1. The existing technology of controlling the opening of the corresponding compartment door by scanning a QR code is not described in detail here. Simultaneously, a companion mini-program can be set up, allowing users to select corresponding additional services by scanning a code. These services can include pet checkups, grooming, entertainment, and customized food provided by service personnel. The mini-program can also connect users to nearby high-quality pet stores and veterinary hospitals, and facilitate the ordering of pet supplies, enabling personalized and customized pet services. This also drives traffic to various services offered by physical stores, creating a mutually beneficial situation.
[0040] Example 2:
[0041] This embodiment provides a pet cat and dog storage box, which differs from Embodiment 1 in that the arrangement of the cat storage compartment 2 and the dog storage compartment 3 in the storage unit 8 is different.
[0042] In detail, based on Figure 6 As shown, the storage unit 8 includes one cat storage compartment 2 and two dog storage compartments 3. Each cat storage compartment 2 includes a main cat compartment 4 and two top extension compartments 5. Each dog storage compartment 3 includes a main dog compartment 6 and a bottom extension compartment 7. The two top extension compartments 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the top of the main cat compartment 4 to form a T-shape for the cat storage compartment 2. The bottom extension compartment 7 and the main dog compartment 6 combine to form an L-shape for the dog storage compartment 3. The cat storage compartment 2 and the two dog storage compartments 3 are arranged horizontally, with the cat storage compartment 2 located between the two dog storage compartments 3. The two top extension compartments 5 in the cat storage compartment 2 are located directly above the bottom extension compartments 7 in the two dog storage compartments 3.
[0043] Considering that the number of users taking dogs out is greater than the number of users taking cats out, and that the demand for dog storage is greater than the demand for cat storage in public places such as shopping malls, the above arrangement makes the number of dog storage pods 3 twice the number of cat storage pods 2. This better meets the demand and ensures that the cat storage pods 2 and dog storage pods 3 can be interlocked to form a rectangular storage unit 8, which maximizes space utilization while ensuring sufficient space for pets to move around. Furthermore, since the cat storage pods 2 have two top extension pods 5, they further increase the cat's elevated activity space, catering to the cat's habits.
[0044] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
