[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a pet toy 100, including: a bottle body 110, a bottle cap 120, and a hanging rope 130. The bottle body 110 has a hollow structure. The bottle cap 120 is bonded to the bottle mouth 111 of the bottle body 110. The bottle body 110 and the bottle cap 120 are made of thermoplastic elastomer. The bottle cap 120 is provided with a through hole 122. One end of the hanging rope 130 is provided with a knot, which is held in the bottle cap 120. The other end of the hanging rope 130 extends out from the through hole 122.
[0025] Specifically, both the bottle body 110 and the cap 120 are made of thermoplastic elastomer. Thermoplastic elastomer is a material that possesses the high elasticity of rubber, the ability to be injection molded, and the advantages of being environmentally friendly, non-toxic, safe, and having a wide range of hardness. Using this material to make the bottle body 110 and cap 120 gives the pet toy 100 good flexibility, allowing it to withstand chewing and tearing by pets. The cap 120 has a through-hole 122, and one end of the hanging rope 130 has a knot that is secured inside the cap 120. The other end of the hanging rope 130 extends from the through-hole 122, and the cap 120 is glued to the bottle opening 111 of the bottle body 110, ensuring a tight connection and preventing the cap 120 from falling off during pet play. This design allows the hanging rope 130 to be securely connected to the cap 120, allowing pet owners to easily carry the pet toy 100 or engage in interactive games with their pets, such as tossing and catching. Meanwhile, the bottle 110 has a hollow structure, which makes it possible to utilize the internal space of the pet toy 100. Items that attract pets can be placed inside to increase the toy's fun.
[0026] The pet toy 100 provided in this embodiment is made of thermoplastic elastomer, with the bottle body 110 and cap 120 both made of thermoplastic elastomer. This effectively resists biting and scratching by pets, extending the toy's lifespan. For example, in traditional woven pet toys 100, the threads are easily broken during chewing, leading to toy damage. However, the pet toy 100 made of thermoplastic elastomer is less prone to breakage under the same chewing conditions, continuously meeting the pet's play needs. The tight adhesive connection between the cap 120 and the bottle body 110, as well as the secure connection between the hanging rope 130 and the cap 120, prevents toy parts from falling off during use, preventing pets from swallowing small parts and reducing the risk of injury to the pet's mouth and digestive system. Furthermore, the inherent flexibility of the thermoplastic elastomer prevents it from being too hard and injuring the pet's mouth. By employing these methods, the flexibility of the pet toy 100 is improved, and its structural strength is enhanced, ensuring durability and safety.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottle body 110 includes a first half 112 and a second half 114 that are connected to each other, and the first half 112 and the second half 114 are bonded together.
[0028] Specifically, the split structure of the bottle body 110 facilitates the manufacturing process. During production, the first half 112 and the second half 114 can be fabricated separately and then glued together, reducing production difficulty. Furthermore, the split design facilitates operations inside the bottle body 110 during manufacturing, such as placing suction components.
[0029] In an optional embodiment of this application, one of the first half 112 and the second half 114 is transparent, and the bottle body 110 is provided with an attraction element for attracting pets.
[0030] Specifically, the combination of the transparent bottle body 110 and the internal attractant provides visual stimulation for the pet. Seeing the attractant sparks the pet's desire to acquire or explore it, leading to more active play. For example, for pets that enjoy chasing brightly colored objects, the colorful attractant inside the bottle body 110 will encourage them to repeatedly try to touch and play with the toy. This visual stimulation, compared to the monotonous appearance of traditional pet toys, better satisfies the pet's psychological needs and increases their enjoyment of the toy. Furthermore, the fact that one of the first half 112 and the second half 114 is transparent allows the pet to see the attractant intermittently during play, increasing the fun and interactivity of the experience.
[0031] In an optional embodiment of this application, the suction element is fabric or paper with a pattern on it. The suction element is connected to the inside of the bottle body 110 and the pattern can be seen through the first half 112 or the second half 114.
[0032] Specifically, the rich variety of patterns on fabric or paper offers more possibilities for attracting pets. Different pets have different preferences for different patterns and colors; by offering a variety of patterns, the preferences of more pets can be satisfied, increasing the toy's applicability. Furthermore, fabric and paper are relatively inexpensive and readily available materials; using them as attractants reduces the production cost of pet toys while ensuring their effectiveness in attracting pets.
[0033] In another optional embodiment of this application, one of the first half 112 and the second half 114 is transparent, and a pattern is printed on the inner side of the bottle body 110.
[0034] Specifically, the pattern is printed directly on the inside of the bottle 110, reducing the need for attractants and simplifying the structure of the pet toy 100. This not only reduces assembly difficulty during production but also decreases the possibility of component damage and improves the toy's stability.
[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, at least one outward protrusion 116 is provided on the bottle body 110, and the outward protrusion 116 is arranged along the circumference of the bottle body 110.
[0036] Specifically, the presence of the protrusion 116 provides pets with better gripping points and chewing surfaces. When pets chew or grasp toys, the protrusion 116 increases friction, making it easier for them to grip the toys, and also provides different pressure points for their teeth, enriching their chewing experience. In addition, the protrusion 116 also helps to improve the structural strength of the bottle body 110 itself, thus enhancing its resistance to chewing.
[0037] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first half 112 and the second half 114 are respectively provided with a stop part 118 so that after the first half 112 and the second half 114 are bonded together, the bottle body 110 forms a sealed structure.
[0038] Specifically, the sealed structure effectively protects the attractant or other items inside the bottle 110. If the bottle 110 contains items that are easily affected by moisture or damage, such as a paper attractant, the sealed bottle 110 can prevent these items from being affected by the external environment, maintaining their good condition, extending the lifespan of the attractant, and thus continuously attracting the pet's attention. Furthermore, it helps maintain the bottle 110's structure, preventing it from becoming too soft and collapsing during chewing, and improving the pet's flexibility during chewing.
[0039] In an optional embodiment of this application, a whistle is provided on the stop portion 118.
[0040] Specifically, the whistle provides auditory stimulation for pets, which, combined with visual appeal, creates a multi-sensory stimulation effect. Pets can not only see the internal attraction of the toy but also perceive its presence through sound. This multi-sensory stimulation more effectively attracts the pet's attention and stimulates its desire to play. Furthermore, the whistle primarily produces sound through air compression. By placing the whistle on the stop 118, it is protected by the bottle cap 120, preventing accidental detachment and ingestion by the pet. The perforation 122 on the bottle cap 120 ensures airflow, facilitating the proper use of the whistle.
[0041] In an optional embodiment of this application, the cross-section of the bottle body 110 is elliptical.
[0042] Specifically, the oval design gives the bottle 110 a unique appearance, and its irregular shape increases the fun of play, making it harder for pets to control its rolling direction as easily as with round toys. At the same time, the oval cross-section allows for more varied trajectories during rolling and throwing, increasing the challenge and enjoyment for pets, while also ensuring the overall smoothness of the toy 100 and preventing scratches to the pet's mouth when chewing. Understandably, the bottle 110 can be made in other shapes as needed, as long as the aforementioned functional requirements are met.
[0043] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottle mouth 111 is oval, and the shape of the bottle cap 120 matches the shape of the bottle mouth 111.
[0044] Specifically, the oval shape of the bottle neck 111 and the matching bottle cap 120 allows the bottle cap 120 to fit better onto the bottle neck 111, reducing gaps. Compared to the connection method of the round bottle neck 111 and bottle cap 120, the oval design is less likely to loosen or fall off when subjected to external forces, such as chewing or pulling by a pet, further enhancing the overall structural stability of the pet toy 100.
[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a supporting part 119 is provided on the bottle body 110. When the bottle cap 120 is closed with the bottle mouth 111, the edge of the bottle cap 120 abuts against the supporting part 119.
[0046] Specifically, the presence of the supporting portion 119 provides additional support for the connection structure between the bottle body 110 and the bottle cap 120, enhancing the overall structural strength. When a pet chews or pulls on the toy, the supporting portion 119 can disperse some of the external force, reducing the pressure on the connection between the bottle cap 120 and the bottle mouth 111, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the connection and extending the service life of the pet toy 100. Furthermore, when the bottle cap 120 is bonded to the bottle body 110, the supporting portion 119 can also bond with the bottle cap 120, increasing the bonding area and thus improving the reliability of the connection.
[0047] It should be understood that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Those skilled in the art can modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features; and all such modifications and substitutions should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims of this utility model.
