Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pet storage equipment technology, and in particular to a pet storage house. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing demand for pet transportation, airports, shopping malls, restaurants, and other venues are experiencing a surge in demand for temporary pet storage. In developing this application, the inventors discovered that existing technologies suffer from at least the following problems: Most existing pet storage facilities are one-piece structures, failing to separate storage areas for different types of pets such as cats and dogs. On one hand, mixing different types of pets can cause discomfort for some; for example, the noise made by dogs can easily trigger stress reactions in cats, affecting their health. On the other hand, different types of pets, such as cats and dogs, have different suitable environmental parameters (e.g., the ideal temperature for cats is 20-26℃, while for dogs it is 18-24℃; their requirements for humidity and light also differ). One-piece pet storage facilities cannot simultaneously meet the diverse environmental needs of different types of pets. Furthermore, existing pet storage facilities lack adequate environmental control functions, resulting in poor air quality, affecting the comfort of pets during storage, and also impacting user trust in the device.

[0023] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The pet storage enclosure of this application embodiment includes a main body 1 and storage cabinets 2. The interior space of the main body 1 is divided into at least two storage spaces 12, each used to store the same type of pet. Each pair of adjacent storage spaces 12 is separated by a partition 13, which is made of or filled with heat-insulating and sound-insulating materials. Each storage space 12 contains at least one storage cabinet 2 for storing pets. Each storage space 12 is equipped with an environmental control device 3 for adjusting the environmental parameters of the corresponding storage space 12.

[0025] For example, in some embodiments, the interior space of the main body 1 can be divided into two storage spaces 12 by a partition 13, one for storing cats and the other for storing dogs. Of course, the interior space of the main body 1 can be divided into more storage spaces 12. There is no limit to the specific number of storage spaces 12; they can be selected according to actual needs. For example, they can be further subdivided to store smaller dogs and larger dogs separately. The main body 1 can have a main entrance 131 on its front for entering the main body 1 to access and retrieve pets. A first door 11 can also be provided on the partition 13 corresponding to each storage space 12 for entering the corresponding storage space 12. Alternatively, the partition 13 can directly divide the main body 1 of the house into multiple separate spaces. The partition 13 does not have doors; instead, a first door 11 is installed on the main body 1 corresponding to each storage space 12. For example, when the main body 1 is divided into two storage spaces 12, two main doors 131 can be installed on the front of the main body 1, with one main door 131 for entering one storage space 12. In this embodiment, the main body 1 can also be made of heat-insulating material. Each storage space 12 is equipped with an environmental control device 3, allowing the environmental parameters of the storage space 12 to be adjusted according to the different types of pets stored there, making the environment of the storage space 12 more suitable for the corresponding pet and ensuring the pet's comfort. By dividing the main body 1 of the house into zones using heat-insulating partitions 13, different types of pets can be stored separately, making the environmental parameters of each storage space 12 more suitable for the pet's needs and improving the comfort of pet storage. The partition 13 can prevent temperature interference between different storage spaces 12 and also has a sound insulation and noise reduction effect, for example, it can prevent the barking of the dog area from causing a stress response to the cat. Different environmental parameters of different storage spaces 12 can be set through the environmental control device 3. For example, the temperature of the cat area can be set to 20-26℃, the temperature of the dog area can be set to 18-24℃, and the humidity and light can also be set to different values.

[0026] The pet storage enclosure in this embodiment also includes a control system (not shown). Each storage space 12 is equipped with an environmental parameter detection device 4. The control system receives environmental parameter detection data sent by the environmental parameter detection device 4 and controls the environmental control equipment 3 based on the environmental parameter detection data and preset environmental parameter thresholds for the storage space 12. The environmental parameter detection device 4 includes one or more of the following: temperature sensor, humidity sensor, light sensor, oxygen concentration sensor, carbon dioxide concentration sensor, and air quality sensor. The environmental parameter detection devices 4 are all installed in the middle of the storage space 12 and positioned away from the doorway to ensure more accurate detection results. The temperature sensor detects the real-time temperature of the storage space 12, the light sensor detects the light intensity of the storage space 12, the oxygen concentration sensor detects the oxygen concentration of the storage space 12, the carbon dioxide concentration sensor detects the carbon dioxide concentration of the storage space 12, and the air quality sensor detects the air quality parameters of the storage space 12. The specific sensors required for the environmental parameter detection device 4 can be set according to the type of environmental control equipment 3.

[0027] The environmental control equipment 3 includes one or more of an air conditioning system, a fresh air system, an exhaust system, and an air purification system. The control system controls the air conditioning system based on temperature detection data provided by a temperature sensor and a preset temperature threshold in the storage space 12. The control system controls the fresh air system based on carbon dioxide concentration data provided by a carbon dioxide concentration sensor and a preset carbon dioxide concentration threshold in the storage space 12. The control system controls the exhaust system and the air purification system based on air quality data provided by an air quality sensor and preset air quality parameter thresholds in the storage space 12.

[0028] Each storage space 12 is equipped with an air conditioning system, a fresh air system, an exhaust system, and an air purification system, allowing for independent control of each storage space 12. The environmental control equipment 3 within each storage space 12 is linked with the environmental parameter detection device 4 through the control system, thereby achieving automated and independent control of the environmental parameters of each storage space 12. The fresh air system and air conditioning system can also be integrated within the same environmental control equipment 3 to reduce the number and size of the equipment. The air conditioning system regulates the temperature of the storage space 12, and the control system controls the start / stop of the air conditioning system, the selection of cooling / heating modes, and the fan speed. The fresh air system regulates and reduces the carbon dioxide concentration in the storage space 12. The fresh air system includes a fresh air duct, a fresh air fan within the fresh air duct, and filter components, such as pre-filters and medium-efficiency filters, to achieve air circulation and renewal within the storage space 12 and to filter the air entering the storage space 12. The exhaust system is used to remove stale air from the storage space 12, including an exhaust duct and an exhaust fan and dust filter installed within the duct. The air purification system is used to purify the air in the storage space 12, remove odors, disinfect bacteria and viruses, and spray fragrance agents. The fresh air system, exhaust system, and air purification system can be adjusted based on environmental monitoring data provided by the environmental parameter monitoring device 4, and the control system can also time the above equipment to turn on and off to improve the air quality of the storage space 12. When the air purification system is turned on, the exhaust system and fresh air system need to be activated simultaneously. The air purification system can be installed on the top of the main building 1 corresponding to the storage space 12.

[0029] The environmental control equipment 3 may also include an oxygen generator. Each storage space 12 is equipped with an oxygen inlet, which is connected to the oxygen generator via piping. The control system controls the start and stop of the oxygen generator and the opening and closing of the oxygen outlet based on oxygen concentration data provided by the oxygen concentration sensor and a preset oxygen concentration threshold. The oxygen generator can be installed on the top of the main body 1, and its oxygen outlet is connected to the oxygen inlet of each storage space 12 via piping. For oxygen parameters, a minimum oxygen concentration can be set. When the oxygen concentration in the storage space 12 falls below this minimum value, the control system activates the oxygen generator to maintain a suitable oxygen concentration for the pet.

[0030] The environmental control device 3 also includes a humidifier and / or a dehumidifier. The control system controls the humidifier or dehumidifier based on the humidity detection data provided by the humidity sensor and the preset humidity threshold of the storage space 12. The control system can control the humidifier or dehumidifier to start based on the humidity detection data of the humidity sensor in the corresponding storage space 12, so that the humidity of the storage space 12 is maintained within the preset humidity threshold range, making the pet more comfortable.

[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, one or more storage lockers 2 can be installed in each storage space 12. Each storage locker 2 includes multiple compartments 21, each compartment 21 for storing one pet. Each compartment 21 has a lockable door 211 made of a transparent material, such as transparent acrylic, to facilitate observation of the pet inside. Each compartment 21 can also be equipped with a lighting device (not shown). The control system controls the brightness of the lighting device based on light data provided by a light sensor. The lighting device can be, for example, a dimmable LED light. Adjusting the brightness of the lighting device based on the light data provided by the light sensor can prevent excessive brightness from stimulating the pet and causing discomfort. The presence of light sensors in the compartments 21 allows for better observation of the pet's condition.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the pet storage enclosure may also include a monitoring system 5. Each storage space 12 is equipped with at least one monitoring system 5. The monitoring system 5 is signal-connected to the control system. The control system receives monitoring data from the monitoring system 5 and stores it separately according to the storage space and compartment, facilitating subsequent retrieval, playback, and traceability. It also provides a basis for monitoring the pet's condition and resolving disputes during storage. For example, a monitoring system 5 can be installed in each storage space 12, covering the entire area of ​​that space. Alternatively, in addition to the monitoring system 5 in the storage space 12, a monitoring system 5 can be installed in each compartment 21. The monitoring system 5 in each compartment 21 monitors the pet within that compartment to better observe and understand the pet's condition during storage. The monitoring data from each monitoring system 5 is stored separately by the control system for subsequent traceability.

[0033] The control system includes a control panel mounted on the main body 1 of the pet housing, comprising a display screen, parameter setting buttons, an emergency stop button, and a controller. The display screen shows real-time environmental parameters and preset thresholds for each pet storage space 12. The preset thresholds for each parameter can be set via the parameter setting buttons, and the entire pet storage housing can be shut down via the emergency stop button. The controller is connected to the environmental control equipment 3 and the environmental parameter detection device 4, enabling both automatic and manual operation of the environmental control equipment 3.

[0034] To conserve energy, the control system can also manage the environmental control equipment 3 based on the overall usage status of the compartments 21 within the storage space 12. For example, when all compartments 21 in a certain storage space 12 are vacant, the control system can automatically increase the threshold range of the environmental parameters for that space or shut down the environmental control equipment 3. When a pet enters any compartment 21 of that space, the system immediately restores the normal operation of the environmental control equipment 3 to ensure that the environmental parameters quickly reach the preset values.

[0035] Existing pet storage facilities mix different types of pets, which can easily cause stress reactions in some pets. Furthermore, they cannot provide differentiated control of environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, and oxygen concentration to meet the different needs of different types of pets. At the same time, insufficient ventilation and deodorization capabilities result in a low level of cleanliness in the pet storage environment, affecting user trust.

[0036] The pet storage enclosure provided in this embodiment features a partitioned design, allowing different types of pets to be stored in separate spaces, preventing the mixing of cats, dogs, and other different species. The soundproofing design of the partitions effectively reduces stress reactions in cats caused by barking from dogs, ensuring the health of the pets during their storage. The partitioned enclosure utilizes independently installed environmental control devices in each storage space to meet the diverse environmental needs of cats, dogs, and other pets. Parameters such as temperature, humidity, light intensity, oxygen concentration, and carbon dioxide concentration can be individually set for each storage space, satisfying the differentiated survival needs of different pet species. A fresh air system and an air purification system work together to achieve air circulation and odor removal within the storage space, improving the cleanliness of the pet storage environment. The overall structure of the pet storage enclosure in this embodiment is designed based on a standard enclosure, adapting to the layout requirements of locations such as airports. Furthermore, the pet storage enclosure is easy to operate, facilitating quick access for staff and users, thus improving the efficiency of pet storage.
