Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet equipment technology, and in particular to a modular animal cabin. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of society and economy, people are increasingly interested in keeping pets, and the number of pet owners is growing. For convenience, many people now use pet carriers to keep their pets.
[0003] To expand the application scenarios of pet carriers, existing technologies incorporate various functional components within them to meet diverse usage needs. For example, patent CN211430532U, entitled "A Temperature-Controlled Pet Carrier," discloses a temperature-controlled pet carrier belonging to the field of animal husbandry equipment technology. This temperature-controlled pet carrier is characterized by comprising a main body, within which a housing is located. Above the housing is a temperature controller, an ion fan, an ozone generator, and a lighting fixture, all controlled by a main switch. This application integrates a temperature controller, ion fan, ozone generator, and lighting fixture above the housing. The temperature controller adjusts the temperature inside the pet carrier based on the temperature detected by a temperature sensor, providing the pet with the most comfortable temperature. The ion fan enhances air circulation within the carrier. The ozone generator sterilizes, disinfects, and deodorizes, providing the pet with an optimal living environment.
[0004] However, these pet carriers are all made in one piece to obtain an open cavity. After a series of complicated processing steps such as grinding and welding, they are then welded to the frame. Only after these processes are completed can complex wiring be installed inside. Then, the various functional structures are installed and electrically connected to the wiring. This not only takes a long time to produce, but also makes them quite bulky and extremely inconvenient to transport, resulting in high transportation costs. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a modular animal cabin that allows for easy assembly and reduces transportation costs through its modular structure.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a modular animal cabin, including a cabin body, a cabin cover detachably connected to the upper connecting end of the cabin body, and a cabin seat detachably connected to the lower connecting end of the cabin body. The cabin body, the cabin cover, and the cabin seat form a cabin structure with at least one side open, which not only simplifies the structure but also facilitates transportation.
[0007] In the above technical solution, the upper connecting end of the cabin body is provided with an upper connecting part, and the cabin body is connected to the cabin cover through the upper connecting part. The lower connecting end of the cabin body is provided with a lower connecting part, and the cabin body is connected to the cabin seat through the lower connecting part.
[0008] In the above technical solution, a cover connecting part that cooperates with the upper connecting part is provided at the connection between the hatch cover and the hatch body, and a reserved installation position is provided at the rear working end of the hatch cover, which can be used to install auxiliary modules.
[0009] In the above technical solution, the connection between the cabin seat and the cabin body is provided with a seat connection part that cooperates with the lower connection part.
[0010] In the above technical solution, the first working surface of the cabin is recessed within the cabin to prevent animal feces from leaking out.
[0011] In the above technical solution, an auxiliary guide structure is provided on the working wall inside the cabin body, which works in conjunction with other guide structures to achieve changes in the accommodating space.
[0012] In the above technical solution, a first guide structure that is perpendicular to and matches the auxiliary guide structure is provided on the inner wall of the hatch.
[0013] In the above technical solution, a second guide structure parallel to the first guide structure is provided on the first working surface of the cabin, and the first guide structure and the second guide structure are respectively located at the starting end of the auxiliary guide structure.
[0014] In the above technical solution, auxiliary components are respectively provided at the transition points between the auxiliary guide structure and the first guide structure and the second guide structure, which can make the spatial separation more independent.
[0015] In the above technical solution, the partition is set inside the cabin structure through the first guide structure, the second guide structure and the auxiliary guide structure, so that the cabin structure is divided into at least two relatively independent cavities.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: by disassembling the integrated cabin structure into multiple modules, including the cabin body, the cabin cover, and the cabin seat, and making the three modules detachably connected, the processing is simplified. At the same time, assembling each component in a modular form can shorten the production cycle and improve the efficiency of assembly line production. Furthermore, by adding auxiliary structures to each structure of the cabin, the cabin can form a flexible and versatile accommodation space to meet various usage scenarios and needs, making it more competitive in the market. In addition, the modular approach makes transportation more convenient and faster, eliminating the disadvantages of the large size and heavy weight of the entire machine in the prior art, and saving costs.

[0022] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention so that those skilled in the art can implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious modifications will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the present invention defined in the following description can be used in other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
[0024] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of this utility model, the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "left", "right", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or position based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the purpose of simplifying the description of this utility model and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0025] It is understood that the term "a" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more", that is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in another embodiment, the number of the element can be multiple, and the term "a" should not be understood as a limitation on the number.
[0026] See Figures 1 to 4A modular animal enclosure includes a main body 1, a cover 2 detachably connected to the upper connecting end of the main body 1, and a seat 3 detachably connected to the lower connecting end of the main body 1. The main body 1, the cover 2, and the seat 3 form an enclosure structure with at least one side open.
[0027] The upper connecting end of the cabin body 1 is provided with an upper connecting part 11, and the cabin body 1 is connected to the cabin cover 2 through the upper connecting part 11. The lower connecting end of the cabin body 1 is provided with a lower connecting part 12, and the cabin body 1 is connected to the cabin seat 3 through the lower connecting part 12.
[0028] As a priority, both the upper connecting part 11 and the lower connecting part 12 are folded edge structures that fold along the cabin body 1, which makes processing easier and reduces manufacturing costs.
[0029] Several connection holes are provided on the folded edge, which can be quickly connected or disassembled through connection structures such as rivets or bolts, making it more convenient to use.
[0030] The connection between the hatch 2 and the cabin body 1 is provided with a hatch connecting part 21 that cooperates with the upper connecting part 11. The connection between the cabin seat 3 and the cabin body 1 is provided with a seat connecting part 31 that cooperates with the lower connecting part 12. In order to match the structure of the upper connecting part 11, both the hatch connecting part 21 and the seat connecting part 31 can be in the form of folded edges, and the connection is more stable by connecting the planes together.
[0031] Of course, it is not limited to the above connection methods; the appropriate connection scheme can be adjusted according to actual production needs.
[0032] It is worth mentioning that the first working surface 32 of the cabin 3 is recessed into the cabin 3 to prevent leakage of animal feces.
[0033] This method allows the cabin structure to be easily disassembled and assembled.
[0034] Obviously, in order to meet various usage scenarios and needs, external equipment will be added to the cabin structure. Therefore, a reserved installation position 22 is provided at the rear working end of the hatch 2, which can be used to install accessories such as emergency ventilation vents 7. A reserved installation hole is also provided on the wall of the hatch 2 corresponding to the reserved installation position 22, for installing ventilation fans and other structures.
[0035] In addition to the reserved installation position 22 at the rear working end of the hatch 2, there are also reserved positions for external equipment on the main body 1, including the first reserved position 12 and the second reserved position 13 on both side walls, and of course, the third reserved position 14 on the inner working wall of the main body 1. Obviously, the number of reserved positions is not limited and can be increased or decreased according to the functions.
[0036] Similarly, the capacity can be varied.
[0037] An auxiliary guide structure 4 is provided on the working wall inside the cabin body 1. A first guide structure 23 is provided on the inner wall of the hatch cover 2, which is perpendicular to and matches the auxiliary guide structure 4. A second guide structure 33 is provided on the first working surface 32 of the cabin seat 3, which is parallel to the first guide structure 23. The first guide structure 23 and the second guide structure 33 are respectively located at the starting end of the auxiliary guide structure 4. An auxiliary component 5 is provided at the transition between the auxiliary guide structure 4 and the first guide structure 23 and the second guide structure 33. The partition 6 is set in the cabin structure through the first guide structure 23, the second guide structure 33 and the auxiliary guide structure 4. By setting a set of the above structures, one cavity can be divided into two relatively independent cavities.
[0038] The first guide structure 23, the second guide structure 33, and the auxiliary guide structure 4 can be fixedly installed on the hatch cover 2, the hatch seat 3, and the hatch body 1, or they can be movably installed on the hatch cover 2, the hatch seat 3, and the hatch body 1.
[0039] The auxiliary component 5 fills the gap at the transition between the auxiliary guide structure 4 and the first guide structure 23 and the second guide structure 33, making the separated space more independent.
[0040] This design allows for a more scientific, effective, and flexible use of the cabin's interior space.
[0041] Of course, if there is a need for multiple cavities, multiple sets of the above structures can be set in the cavity, and multiple cavities can be separated by multiple partitions 6, which is suitable for smaller animals.
[0042] The partition 6 is assembled into the cavity by snap-fit, so it can be freely disassembled, making the accommodation space flexible and adaptable to meet the needs of both large and small movements, making it more flexible in use.
[0043] Of course, the second guide structure 33 is set at a higher height than the first working surface 32 of the cabin 3. This allows for more independent space division, preventing animal excrement from the two compartments from contaminating each other and making it safer to use.
[0044] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments. Without departing from the stated principles, the implementation of the present invention may have any variations or modifications.
