Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet cage technology, specifically a pet cage. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing number of pet-owning families, pet cages have become an essential piece of equipment for many households, used for the temporary placement, transportation, or isolation of pets. Currently, most pet cages on the market are made of metal mesh or plastic, which have problems such as insufficient strength, easy deformation, and short service life. This is especially true for medium and large dogs, who are active and strong. Ordinary cages are prone to mesh breakage, loosening of connectors, or even collapse of the entire structure after long-term use or impact from the pet, posing safety hazards and affecting the convenience and durability of use.
[0003] While some reinforced cages exist in the current technology, such as those with added horizontal or vertical support bars, their reinforcement methods are mostly unidirectional or cross-shaped, making it difficult to effectively distribute the stress. Structural damage is particularly likely to occur in weak areas such as the top and sides of the cage. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a pet cage with a more rational structure, higher strength, and longer service life to meet the market demand for high-quality pet supplies. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pet cage to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A pet cage includes a cage body and a door. The cage body includes support rods and railings. Multiple support rods are connected to each other to form a support frame for the cage body. A fence formed by multiple railings is provided inside the support frame. Metal strips are provided on the top, sides and back of the cage body. Multiple metal strips are cross-fixed inside the support frame.
[0007] The door is located on the front of the cage body. A hinge is provided on one side of the door, and the door is hinged to the support rod of the support frame through the hinge. A fixing plate is provided on the other side of the door, and a pin is provided on the fixing plate. A locking plate that cooperates with the pin is provided on the support rod.
[0008] Based on the above technical solutions, this utility model also provides the following optional technical solutions:
[0009] In one alternative: a handle is provided on the fixing plate, a locking block is provided on the door body, and a groove is provided on the handle to cooperate with the locking block.
[0010] In one alternative: a reinforcing beam is provided at the bottom of the cage body, and both ends of the reinforcing beam are fixedly connected to support rods.
[0011] In one alternative: the metal strips are welded and fixed inside the support frame in a cross shape, and a reinforcing plate is provided inside the door.
[0012] In one alternative: the metal strip is one of flat steel, round steel or square tubing.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] The pet cage utilizes a cross-shaped reinforcement structure to transform the traditional cage's unidirectional or cross-shaped force distribution method into a multidirectional, distributed force distribution. When the cage is subjected to external impact, the crisscrossed metal strips can quickly disperse the impact force in multiple directions to the entire support frame, avoiding stress concentration. The multiple triangular structures formed by the intersection of the metal strips constitute a stable unit, enhancing compression and impact resistance. The bottom reinforcement beam and support rod form a collaborative force-bearing system, effectively preventing chassis deformation. The door adopts a locking structure that combines a bolt and a latch plate, ensuring locking reliability and ease of operation. This design solves the problems of traditional pet cages being easily deformed and damaged, making it particularly suitable for medium to large-sized dogs and other pets with greater strength.
