Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet supplies technology, and in particular to a pet fence. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards and the increasing popularity of pet ownership, pets have gained a significantly higher status in families, and more and more families are choosing to keep cats, dogs, and other pets as companions. To ensure the safety of pets and control their activity range, pet fences are widely used as a common pet product. Existing pet fences are usually composed of multiple fixed or foldable panels, making it easy for users to unfold or store them according to space needs.
[0003] However, traditional pet fences still have many shortcomings in their structural design. For example, some fences use rigid connections, making them unable to fold flexibly and inconvenient for transportation and storage; others, while having folding capabilities, have complex locking mechanisms between the gate and the fence body, are inconvenient to operate, and may even have unreliable locking mechanisms, making it easy for the gate to open accidentally during pet activity, causing pets to escape or posing safety hazards. In addition, existing locking structures often rely on the assembly of multiple parts, which not only increases manufacturing costs but also makes them prone to loosening, wear, or failure after long-term use, affecting their lifespan and user experience.
[0004] Especially for foldable fences formed by sequentially hinged multiple individual fence panels, how to provide a simple, reliable, easy-to-operate, and durable connection structure while ensuring the overall structural stability and ease of use of the fence has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field.
[0005] This utility model is based on the above-mentioned circumstances. Utility Model Content
[0006] This invention overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art and provides a pet fence that is simple in structure, reliable in locking, easy to operate, and highly durable.
[0007] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0008] A pet enclosure includes an enclosure body, which is composed of several individual enclosure panels that are rotatably connected in sequence. A door panel is rotatably connected to the first enclosure panel. A hook structure is provided between the door panel and the last enclosure panel to lock the door panel. At least the last enclosure panel has a locking post. The hook structure includes a connecting part that is fixedly connected to the door panel. The connecting part has a first bend that bends outward. A limiting part is connected to the first bend. A receiving groove for the locking post to enter is left between the limiting part and the connecting part. The end of the limiting part has a second bend that bends inward to prevent the locking post from falling out of the receiving groove. The connecting part, the first bend, the limiting part, and the second bend are all formed by bending a single metal strip.
[0009] As described above, a pet fence has an entrance on the door panel and a door leaf for opening and closing the entrance.
[0010] As described above, in a pet fence, the door leaf and the door panel are rotatably connected, and a locking structure for restricting the opening and closing of the door leaf is provided between the door leaf and the door panel.
[0011] As described above, the locking structure of a pet fence includes a socket on a single door panel and a bolt on the door leaf that can be inserted into the socket.
[0012] As described above, in a pet fence, the individual fence panels, the individual door panels, and the door leaf are all made of mesh panels.
[0013] As described above, a pet fence has pads attached to the bottom of the fence body.
[0014] As described above, the pet fence has an open clearance groove in the middle of the foot, and multiple slots communicating with the clearance groove are also provided at the upper end of the foot. The slots are distributed circumferentially on the outside of the clearance groove.
[0015] In the pet fence described above, the connecting part is welded to the door panel unit.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0017] The connecting part, first bend, limiting part, and second bend of the hook structure of this utility model are all formed by bending a single metal strip, eliminating the need for assembly of multiple parts. This not only simplifies the manufacturing process and reduces production costs but also improves the overall integrity and reliability of the structure. The locking post is embedded in the receiving groove formed by the limiting part and the connecting part, and the second bend bends inward to form a barrier, effectively preventing the locking post from accidentally dislodging under the influence of pet activity or external force, ensuring the door panel is securely locked and preventing pet escape.
[0018] The hook structure is made of a metal strip bent into one piece. The material has high strength, excellent resistance to deformation and fatigue, and is not easy to loosen, break or fail after long-term use, which significantly improves the service life of the product.
[0019] The fence body is composed of multiple individual fence panels that are rotated and connected, making it easy to unfold and store; the hook structure is well compatible with this foldable design, ensuring portability without sacrificing the stability of the locking function.

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0029] like Figures 1 to 7The pet enclosure shown includes an enclosure body, which is composed of several individual enclosure panels 1 connected in a rotatable manner. A door panel 2 is rotatably connected to the first enclosure panel 1. A hook structure 3 is provided between the door panel 2 and the last enclosure panel 1 to lock the door panel 2. At least the last enclosure panel 1 has a locking post 11. The hook structure 3 includes a connecting part 31 fixedly connected to the door panel 2. The connecting part 31 has a first outwardly bent portion 32. A limiting portion 33 is connected to the first bent portion 32. A receiving groove 34 is provided between the limiting portion 33 and the connecting part 31 for the locking post 11 to enter. The end of the limiting portion 33 has a second inwardly bent portion 35 to prevent the locking post 11 from dislodging from the receiving groove 34. The connecting part 31, the first bent portion 32, the limiting portion 33, and the second bent portion 35 are all formed by bending a single metal strip. The connecting part 31 is welded to the door panel 2.
[0030] The hook structure 3 of this utility model consists of a metal strip bent into a connecting part 31, a first bending part 32, a limiting part 33, and a second bending part 35. This eliminates the need for multi-part assembly, simplifying the manufacturing process, reducing production costs, and significantly improving the overall integrity and reliability of the structure. By embedding the locking post 11 into the receiving groove 34 formed by the limiting part 33 and the connecting part 31, and utilizing the inward bending of the second bending part 35 to form an effective barrier, the locking post 11 can be prevented from accidentally dislodging under pet movement or external force, ensuring the door panel 2 is securely locked and preventing pet escape. This structure uses high-strength metal materials, possessing excellent resistance to deformation and fatigue, and is not prone to loosening, breakage, or failure after long-term use, significantly extending product lifespan. Simultaneously, its design is well-compatible with the foldable fence body formed by the rotating connection of multiple fence panels 1, ensuring portability without compromising the stability of the locking function.
[0031] Furthermore, the door panel unit 2 is provided with a doorway 21, and the door panel unit 2 is also provided with a door leaf 22 for opening and closing the doorway 21. The door leaf 22 is rotatably connected to the door panel unit 2, and a locking structure for restricting the opening and closing of the door leaf 22 is provided between the door leaf 22 and the door panel unit 2.
[0032] Users can choose to open the gate according to their actual needs without unlocking it from the hook structure 3, avoiding frequent opening and closing of the entire fence structure. This saves operation time, reduces wear and tear on the fence connection structure, and extends the product's lifespan.
[0033] Furthermore, the locking structure includes an insertion hole 41 on the door panel 2 and a bolt 42 on the door leaf 22 that can be inserted into the insertion hole 41. Of course, the locking structure can also be other locking structures such as a snap-fit or a magnet.
[0034] In one embodiment, the fence panel 1, the door panel 2, and the door leaf 22 are all made of mesh panels. The mesh panels offer good ventilation and breathability, and the mesh design allows users to clearly observe the pets inside. Compared to solid panels, the mesh panels significantly reduce the overall weight while maintaining sufficient structural strength, making the fence easier for users to move, unfold, and fold, making it particularly suitable for frequent use in homes, outdoors, or temporary locations.
[0035] In one embodiment, a foot 5 is connected to the bottom of the fence body. The foot 5 increases the contact area between the fence and the ground, effectively reducing the risk of the fence swaying or tipping over when a pet leans on it, bumps into it, or under external force, significantly enhancing the stability of the overall structure and ensuring pet safety. The foot 5 is usually made of soft material, preventing the metal or hard bottom of the fence from directly rubbing against the ground, preventing scratches, wear, or indentations on wooden floors, tiles, carpets, and other floor surfaces, thus balancing aesthetics and maintenance. The bottom of the foot 5 often has anti-slip patterns or is made of a high-friction coefficient material, providing good grip even on smooth surfaces to prevent the fence from slipping; it also has wear resistance, extending its service life.
[0036] Furthermore, the middle part of the pad 5 is provided with an upper open relief groove 51, and the upper end of the pad 5 is also provided with a plurality of slots 52 that communicate with the relief groove 51 and allow the lower end of the mesh plate to be inserted. The slots 52 are distributed circumferentially on the outside of the relief groove 51, which can accommodate the connection of two single frame pieces 1 at various angles.
