Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a pet bathtub, and more particularly to a height-adjustable pet bathtub. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, pet bathing primarily relies on fixed-height household bathtubs, basins, or commercially available pet bathtubs. These devices generally have significant drawbacks: their fixed height makes them unadjustable to different pet sizes, especially large dogs, and to the height of the user, such as the elderly or short individuals. This forces most users to spend extended periods bending or squatting, easily leading to back strain, and is inconvenient and strenuous to operate. Furthermore, for pets with limited mobility, such as elderly, post-operative, or disabled pets, getting in and out of a fixed-height bathtub is particularly difficult, posing a risk of falls and exacerbating their anxiety. While some products attempt to improve this by adding removable or folding steps, they still fail to fundamentally solve the core problem of conveniently and comfortably adjusting the bathtub's working height to suit the needs of different users and pets, resulting in poor flexibility, complex structures, or insufficient stability. Therefore, a height-adjustable pet bathtub design that effectively addresses these issues is urgently needed.

[0003] Therefore, overcoming the aforementioned shortcomings has become an important issue that urgently needs to be addressed by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of the above-mentioned technology and provides a height-adjustable pet bathtub.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A height-adjustable pet bathtub includes a tub body 1 and a base 2 distributed vertically. A scissor-type support assembly 3 connects the tub body 1 and the base 2. The scissor-type support assembly 3 is used to support the tub body 1 and adjust the height of the tub body 1. The base 2 is provided with a control pedal 4 for controlling the movement of the scissor-type support assembly 3 to raise / lower the tub body 1. A fixed baffle 5 is fixed on the upper surface of the tub body 1 to enclose the rear, left, and right sides of the tub body 1. A movable baffle 7 is also provided on the front side of the upper surface of the tub body 1, which can be detachably connected to the fixed baffle 5 via a quick-release assembly 6. A drain hole 11 is opened on the right side of the bottom of the tub body 1. The tub body 1 is tilted left and right, with the right side lower than the left side.

[0007] Preferably, the scissor-type support assembly 3 includes a first bracket 31 hinged at its lower end to the right side of the base 2 and capable of swinging around an axis in the front-back direction, and a second bracket 32 ​​hinged at its upper end to the right side of the bottom of the cylinder 1 and capable of swinging around an axis in the front-back direction. The bottom left side of the cylinder 1 has two first roller grooves 33 extending left and right and distributed front and back. The upper front and rear sides of the first bracket 31 are each hinged with a first roller 34 capable of rotating around an axis in the front-back direction. The first rollers 34 are limited and installed in the corresponding first roller grooves 33, allowing them to move left and right. The left side of the base 2 has two second roller grooves 35 extending left and right and distributed front and back. The second bracket 32... The lower end has two hinged second rollers 36 on its front and rear sides, which can rotate around the front-rear axis. The second rollers 36 are limited in the second roller grooves 35 on the corresponding sides and can move left and right. The middle part of the first bracket 31 and the middle part of the second bracket 32 ​​are hinged together and can rotate relative to each other around the front-rear axis. An electric telescopic rod 37 is also connected between the base 2 and the upper part of the first bracket 31. One end of the electric telescopic rod 37 is hinged to the base 2 and can rotate relative to the base 2 around the front-rear axis. The other end of the electric telescopic rod 37 is hinged to the upper part of the first bracket 31 and can rotate relative to the first bracket 31 around the front-rear axis.

[0008] Preferably, the length of the first bracket 31 from its hinge point with the second bracket 32 ​​to its upper end is A, and the length to its lower end is B. The length of the second bracket 32 ​​from its hinge point with the first bracket 31 to its upper end is C, and the length to its lower end is D, and A > B = C = D.

[0009] Preferably, the quick-release assembly 6 includes spherical positioning protrusions 61 disposed on the left and right front ends of the fixed baffle 5. The fixed baffle 5 has two spherical positioning protrusions 61 distributed vertically on both the left and right sides. The movable baffle 7 has gourd-shaped holes 62 on the rear side that are narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, corresponding one-to-one with the spherical positioning protrusions 61.

[0010] Preferably, a support frame 12 is provided at the bottom of the cylinder body 1, and the scissor-type support assembly 3 is connected between the support frame 12 and the base 2, with the support frame 12 and the bottom of the cylinder body 1 in surface contact.

[0011] Preferably, the base 2 is provided with a plurality of upwardly protruding support columns 21, which are used to abut against the bottom of the cylinder 1 after the cylinder 1 has descended to a certain height in order to limit the lowest position of the cylinder 1's descent.

[0012] Preferably, a shower head 51 and a shelf 52 are detachably connected to the fixed baffle 5, and the fixed baffle 5 is also provided with a number of mounting holes 53 to facilitate the installation of external functional expansion parts.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. The pet bathtub in this case achieves flexible adjustment of the bathtub height by setting a scissor support component between the tub and the base, combined with a control pedal. This effectively solves the defect of traditional pet bathtubs with fixed height that cannot match the user's height and the pet's size. It can significantly reduce the risk of back strain caused by the user bending over to operate the bathtub, while also making it easier for the pet to enter and exit the tub.

[0015] 2. The tub body in this case is also equipped with a fixed baffle, and the fixed baffle is also detachably connected to a movable baffle via a quick-release assembly. The fixed baffle and the detachable quick-release assembly can effectively prevent water from splashing around the tub body when the pet is bathing, while the detachable movable baffle can be set without affecting the pet's entry and exit from the tub body.

[0016] 3. The inclined design of the cylinder body towards the water inlet can effectively improve drainage efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The following examples provide a more detailed description of the features and other related characteristics of this utility model, to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art:

[0024] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, a height-adjustable pet bathtub includes a tub body 1 and a base 2 distributed vertically. A scissor-type support assembly 3 connects the tub body 1 and the base 2. The scissor-type support assembly 3 is used to support the tub body 1 and adjust the height of the tub body 1. The base 2 is provided with a control pedal 4 for controlling the movement of the scissor-type support assembly 3 to raise / lower the tub body 1. A fixed baffle 5 is fixed on the upper surface of the tub body 1 to enclose the rear, left, and right sides of the tub body 1. A movable baffle 7 is also provided on the front side of the upper surface of the tub body 1, which can be detachably connected to the fixed baffle 5 via a quick-release assembly 6. A drain hole 11 is provided on the right side of the bottom of the tub body 1. The tub body 1 is tilted left and right, with the right side lower than the left side.

[0025] This pet bathtub includes a tub body 1, a base 2, a scissor-type support assembly 3, a control pedal 4, a fixed baffle 5, a quick-release assembly 6, and a movable baffle 7. The scissor-type support assembly 3 connects the tub body 1 and the base 2 to dynamically adjust the height of the tub body 1. The control pedal 4 controls the movement of the scissor-type support assembly 3. Before bathing the pet, the control pedal 4 can be used to lower the tub body 1 to a lower position for easy entry. Once the pet is inside, the control pedal 4 can be used to raise the tub body 1 to a convenient height before bathing. Additionally, a fixed baffle 5 is fixed to the upper surface of the tub body 1, enclosing the rear, left, and right sides of the tub body 1. The fixed baffle 5 is detachably connected to the front of the fixed baffle 5 via the quick-release assembly 6, thus effectively blocking some of the water splashing out during bathing and preventing water from wetting the floor around the bathtub. Furthermore, since the movable baffle 7 is detachably connected to the fixed baffle 5 via the quick-release assembly 6, the movable baffle 7 can be removed before the pet enters the tank 1, and then reinstalled after the pet enters the tank 1. In addition, the tank 1 in this case is also tilted towards the drain hole 11, which ensures that the water in the tank 1 can flow out from the drain hole 11 on its own and will not accumulate in the tank 1.

[0026] As described above, the pet bathtub in this case achieves flexible height adjustment of the tub body 1 by setting a scissor-type support component 3 between the tub body 1 and the base 2, combined with a control pedal 4. This effectively solves the defect of traditional pet bathtubs with fixed heights that cannot match the user's height and pet's size, significantly reducing the risk of back strain caused by bending over while also facilitating pet entry and exit from the tub body 1. In addition, the tub body 1 is equipped with a fixed baffle 5, which is detachably connected to a movable baffle 7 via a quick-release component 6. The fixed baffle 5 and the detachable quick-release component 6 effectively prevent water from splashing around the bathtub during pet bathing, while the detachable movable baffle 7 does not hinder pet entry and exit from the tub body 1. At the same time, the tub body 1 is also tilted towards the drain hole 11, which effectively improves drainage efficiency.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, preferably, the scissor-type support assembly 3 includes a first bracket 31 hinged at its lower end to the right side of the base 2 and capable of swinging around an axis in the front-back direction, and a second bracket 32 ​​hinged at its upper end to the right side of the bottom of the cylinder 1 and capable of swinging around an axis in the front-back direction. The bottom left side of the cylinder 1 has two first roller grooves 33 extending left and right and distributed front and back. The upper front and rear sides of the first bracket 31 are each hinged with a first roller 34 capable of rotating around an axis in the front-back direction. The first rollers 34 are limited and installed in the corresponding first roller grooves 33, allowing them to move left and right. The left side of the base 2 has two second roller grooves 35 extending left and right and distributed front and back. The second bracket... The lower end of bracket 32 ​​is hinged with second rollers 36 on both the front and rear sides, which can rotate around the front-rear axis. The second rollers 36 are limited in the second roller grooves 35 on the corresponding sides and can move left and right. The middle part of the first bracket 31 and the middle part of the second bracket 32 ​​are hinged together and can rotate relative to each other around the front-rear axis. An electric telescopic rod 37 is also connected between the base 2 and the upper part of the first bracket 31. One end of the electric telescopic rod 37 is hinged to the base 2 and can rotate relative to the base 2 around the front-rear axis. The other end of the electric telescopic rod 37 is hinged to the upper part of the first bracket 31 and can rotate relative to the first bracket 31 around the front-rear axis.

[0028] As described above, the scissor lift assembly 3 of this case includes a first bracket 31, a second bracket 32, a first roller groove 33, a first roller 34, a second roller groove 35, a second roller 36, and an electric telescopic rod 37. The lower end of the first bracket 31 is hinged to the right side of the base 2, and the upper end is limited to left-right movement at the bottom left side of the cylinder 1 via the cooperation of the first roller groove 33 and the first roller 34. The upper end of the second bracket 32 ​​is hinged to the right side of the bottom of the cylinder 1, and the lower end is limited to left-right movement at the left side of the base 2 via the cooperation of the second roller groove 35 and the second roller 36. The first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32 ​​are also hinged together at their midpoints. In addition, an electric telescopic rod 37 is hinged between the base 2 and the first bracket 31. Thus, when the electric telescopic rod 37 extends, it can drive the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32 ​​to narrow and smoothly raise the cylinder 1, while when the electric telescopic rod 37 shortens, it can drive the first bracket 31 and the second bracket 32 ​​to widen and smoothly lower the cylinder 1, thereby realizing flexible adjustment of the height of the cylinder 1.

[0029] Specifically, the control pedal 4 is used to control the movement of the electric telescopic rod 37.

[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, preferably, the length from the hinge point of the first bracket 31 to the upper end is A, and the length to the lower end is B. The length from the hinge point of the second bracket 32 ​​to the upper end is C, and the length to the lower end is D. A > B = C = D. In this way, it can be ensured that the left side of the cylinder 1 is higher than the right side, so that the cylinder 1 tilts to the side of the lower water hole 11 to improve drainage efficiency.

[0031] like Figure 6 As shown, preferably, the quick-release assembly 6 includes spherical positioning protrusions 61 located at the front ends of the left and right sides of the fixed baffle 5. The fixed baffle 5 has two spherical positioning protrusions 61 distributed vertically on both its left and right sides. The movable baffle 7 has gourd-shaped holes 62, narrower at the top and wider at the bottom, corresponding one-to-one with the spherical positioning protrusions 61. Thus, when installing the movable baffle 7, simply align the wider lower part of the gourd-shaped hole 62 with the spherical positioning protrusion 61, then place the movable baffle 7 close to the fixed baffle 5 so that the spherical positioning protrusions 61 are inserted into the corresponding gourd-shaped holes 62. Then, press the movable baffle 7 down so that the spherical positioning protrusions 61 are engaged with the narrower upper part of the gourd-shaped hole 62. This fixes the movable baffle 7 to the front of the fixed baffle 5 and simultaneously encloses the front side of the upper surface of the cylinder body 1. Disassembly is also simple: just lift the movable baffle 7 and remove it away from the fixed baffle 5. The movable baffle 7 can be easily and quickly installed and removed using the quick-release component 6, thus not hindering the pet from entering the tank 1 and preventing water from splashing when the pet is bathing.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, preferably, a support frame 12 is provided at the bottom of the cylinder body 1, and the scissor-type support assembly 3 is connected between the support frame 12 and the base 2, with the support frame 12 and the bottom of the cylinder body 1 in surface contact.

[0033] As described above, by setting a support frame 12 at the bottom of the cylinder body 1 and connecting the scissor support assembly 3 between the support frame 12 and the base 2, and ensuring that the support frame 12 and the bottom of the cylinder body 1 are in surface contact, the bottom of the cylinder body 1 can be evenly stressed, and the supporting force of the scissor support assembly 3 on the cylinder body 1 can be avoided from being concentrated in a local area, so that the stress concentration at the bottom of the cylinder body 1 will affect its service life.

[0034] Specifically, the second bracket 32 ​​is hinged to the support frame 12, and the first roller groove 33 is also provided on the support frame 12.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, preferably, the base 2 is provided with a plurality of upwardly protruding support columns 21, which are used to abut against the bottom of the cylinder 1 after the cylinder 1 has descended to a certain height in order to limit the lowest position of the cylinder 1's descent.

[0036] As described above, by setting the support column 21 to abut against the cylinder 1 at the lowest position, the range of safe descent of the cylinder 1 is limited, preventing the cylinder 1 from falling excessively and damaging the scissor support assembly 3. At the same time, the support column 21 can also support and ensure that the cylinder 1 can be relatively stable after it has descended to the lowest position, providing a stable environment for pets to enter and exit and reducing the risk of pets falling.

[0037] Specifically, the support column 21 abuts against the support frame 12 when the cylinder 1 is lowered to its lowest position.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 6 As shown, preferably, a shower head 51 and a shelf 52 are detachably connected to the fixed baffle 5, and the fixed baffle 5 is also provided with a number of mounting holes 53 to facilitate the installation of external functional expansion parts.

[0039] As mentioned above, the convenience of pet bathing can be improved by setting a shower head 51 and a shelf 52 on the fixed baffle 5. In addition, the installation hole 53 allows users to install other external functional modules according to their own needs, thereby meeting the bathing needs of different pets. This can greatly improve the adaptability of the bathtub to different working conditions.

[0040] As stated above, this case protects a height-adjustable pet bathtub, and all technical solutions that are the same as or similar to this case should be considered to fall within the scope of protection of this case.
