Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet supplies, specifically to a modular pet cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, more and more families are keeping pets, and their requirements for pet living environments are also increasing. Traditional pet lockers have fixed structures and single functions, making it difficult to meet the diverse needs of multi-pet households and when the number and types of pets change. When a new pet is added to the family or a pet grows up, the existing pet locker may not provide enough space and suitable functional partitions; if keeping pets with different habits, such as cats and dogs, existing pet lockers can hardly meet their living needs simultaneously. Moreover, the fixed structure of pet lockers is extremely inconvenient to move and change locations, and cannot flexibly adapt to changes in the home environment. Utility Model Content

[0003] To overcome the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a modular pet cabinet. Through the design of snap-fit ​​connectors, the pet cabinet can be modularly assembled, allowing it to be flexibly combined and adjusted according to changes in the number, type, and habits of pets, meeting the diverse needs of multi-pet families, while also being easy to move and adapt to different home environments.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a modular pet locker, comprising a locker body, a connecting locker, and a snap-fit ​​connector. The snap-fit ​​connector includes a first snap-fit ​​and a second snap-fit. The first snap-fit ​​includes a gourd-shaped groove, and the second snap-fit ​​has a first locking body corresponding to the size of the small groove in the gourd-shaped groove. The locker body and the connecting locker are fixed together by the snap-fit ​​connector, wherein the first snap-fit ​​is fixed to the locker body, and the second snap-fit ​​is fixed to the connecting locker. The gourd-shaped groove is an inverted gourd, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, comprising a large groove and a small groove connected as one piece.

[0005] Furthermore, the connection cabinet may be one or more, including a first connection cabinet, a second connection cabinet, a third connection cabinet, ..., an Nth connection cabinet.

[0006] The cabinet can be an activity module, and the connecting cabinet can be a sleep module, activity module, food module, or exercise module. The sleep module provides a space for pets to rest and sleep, and can be equipped with a soft mat inside; the activity module and exercise module are equipped with scratching posts, climbing frames, treadmills, etc., to meet the needs of pets for activity and play.

[0007] Furthermore, the cabinet body connects to each of the connecting cabinets, and the cabinet body and each of the connecting cabinets are fixed by the buckle connectors, wherein the first buckle is fixed on the cabinet body, and the second buckle is fixed on each of the connecting cabinets.

[0008] Furthermore, the cabinet body is connected to one of the connecting cabinets via the snap-fit ​​connectors, wherein the first snap-fit ​​is fixed to the cabinet body and the second snap-fit ​​is fixed to the connecting cabinet; the remaining connecting cabinets are sequentially connected to the connecting cabinets connected to the cabinet body, wherein one of the adjacent connecting cabinets has a first snap-fit ​​fixed on it and the other has a second snap-fit ​​fixed on it.

[0009] Furthermore, in the connecting cabinet of the cabinet body, the first buckle is fixed on the cabinet body, and the second buckle is fixed on the connecting cabinet; the remaining connecting cabinets are sequentially connected to the connecting cabinets connected to the cabinet body, wherein one of the adjacent connecting cabinets has the first buckle fixed on it, and the other has the second buckle fixed on it.

[0010] Furthermore, the first buckle is provided with a first card plate fixed to the cabinet or the connecting cabinet, and the first card plate is provided with first card holes at both ends, and the first card plate is fixed to the cabinet or the connecting cabinet through the first card holes.

[0011] Furthermore, the second buckle is provided with a second card plate fixed on the connecting cabinet. The first card body and the second card body are fixed to the second card plate in sequence. The diameter of the second card body is larger than that of the first card body and smaller than the large groove size of the gourd-shaped card slot.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] This utility model allows for quick plug-and-play assembly of the cabinet and connecting cabinets, as well as between the various connecting cabinets. It is easy to disassemble during transport, and is convenient to install and disassemble. It is easy to move and adjust, adapting to different home space layouts. After arriving at a new location, it can be reassembled according to the new space, offering high flexibility.

[0014] This utility model uses snap-fit ​​connectors, allowing users to freely combine various connecting cabinets according to actual needs and space conditions to form pet cabinets with different layouts and functions. It has good scalability. When the number of pets in the family increases or there are new functional needs, users can purchase new connecting cabinets to add. For example, if a new pet is added, a connecting cabinet can be added as a sleeping module; if more activity space is desired for the pet, a connecting cabinet can be added as an activity module.

[0015] This invention is easy to maintain and upgrade. If a connecting cabinet is damaged, only that connecting cabinet needs to be replaced, without the need to repair the entire pet cabinet. At the same time, with the development of pet product technology and the emergence of new functions, users can purchase connecting cabinets with new functions at any time to upgrade the pet cabinet and extend its service life.
