Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rope toy technology, specifically to a reinforced connector for pet rope toys. Background Technology

[0002] Pet rope toys are designed specifically for pets. They are woven from sturdy materials such as cotton, linen, leather, or plastic, combining the durability of rope with the fun of toys. They satisfy a pet's chewing instincts, help exercise their teeth, clean their mouths, and prevent oral problems. They can also relieve anxiety, reduce stress, and decrease loneliness. Furthermore, they can be used as training tools to improve a pet's intelligence and obedience, and enhance the bond between pets and their owners through interactive games.

[0003] For example, Chinese Patent Application No. 202230483597.5 discloses a pet rope toy. The specifications are as follows: 1. Name of the product: Pet rope toy. 2. Intended use: A toy for pets to play with. 3. Key design features: The shape. 4. Image or photograph that best illustrates the key design features: Three-dimensional. Figure 1 5. The bottom view is already in three dimensions. Figure 2 The bottom view is omitted from the image.

[0004] During the use of pet rope toys, pets will often chew and swing them vigorously due to their nature. The rope ends of the toy are very easy to come apart under such continuous pulling and friction. Over time, the knot will also gradually loosen due to continuous force, which may eventually cause the entire toy to fall apart.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to design and modify the joints of pet rope toys to effectively prevent the rope ends from loosening and the toys from falling apart. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the problems mentioned in the background section, the present invention aims to provide a reinforced connector for pet rope toys, which has the advantages of a reinforced connector and solves the problems of loose rope ends and toys falling apart.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a reinforced connector for a pet rope toy, comprising a braided rope, the braided rope comprising a main body woven by rope knots, a first reinforcing member provided at both ends of the braided rope, a second reinforcing member fixedly sleeved at both ends of the braided rope, a third reinforcing member fixedly sleeved on the front side of the main body, a fourth reinforcing member provided inside the main body, and a fifth reinforcing member provided on the upper and lower sides of the main body. The first, second, third, fourth, and fifth reinforcing members are used to jointly ensure the fixation of both ends of the braided rope and the stability of the main body.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the first reinforcing member is formed by hot-melting and solidifying the strands at both ends of the braided rope. After hot-melting and solidification, the first reinforcing member is tightly bonded and fixed to the surfaces of adjacent strands and knots, thereby enhancing the structural strength of both ends of the braided rope.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the second reinforcing component is a heat-shrinkable rubber sleeve, which is fitted onto the surface of the main body to provide positioning and constraint for both ends of the braided rope.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the third reinforcing component is a heat-shrinkable rubber sleeve, which is fitted onto the front side of the main body to restrain the knot or rope body on the front side of the braided rope.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the fourth reinforcing component is a stitching thread, which is stitched to the rope inside the main body. By stitching the ropes together, the continuity of the internal structure of the main body is enhanced, and the overall stability of the braided rope is guaranteed.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the fifth reinforcing component is a stitching thread, which is stitched to the upper and lower sides of the outer surface of the main body. By stitching and fixing adjacent ropes together, the connection stability between adjacent ropes after the braided rope is wrapped is increased.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. This utility model reinforces the braided rope from multiple aspects by setting a first, second, third, fourth, and fifth reinforcing component at different parts of the rope. This comprehensive reinforcement method can ensure the fixation of both ends of the braided rope and the stability of the main body in all aspects, effectively cope with various complex stress situations generated during pet play, greatly improve the durability and service life of the braided rope, and reduce the risk of injury to pets that may be caused by damage to the braided rope.

[0015] 2. This utility model incorporates a first reinforcing component, formed by the thermal melting and solidification of the strands at both ends of the braided rope, which is then tightly bonded and fixed to the surfaces of adjacent strands and knots. This design enhances the structural strength of both ends of the braided rope, enabling them to withstand greater tensile force and preventing them from unraveling when pulled by pets. This ensures the integrity of the braided rope during use and provides a fundamental guarantee for the stability of the entire product.

[0016] 3. This utility model, by setting a second reinforcing component and using a heat-shrinkable sleeve fitted onto the surface of the main body, provides positioning and constraint for both ends of the braided rope. The heat-shrinkable sleeve has good elasticity and fit, and can tightly wrap around the braided rope, effectively limiting the displacement of both ends under stress, avoiding loosening of the knot or damage to the rope due to excessive movement of both ends, and further enhancing the stability of both ends of the braided rope.

[0017] 4. This utility model incorporates a third reinforcing component, also a heat-shrinkable sleeve, fitted onto the front of the main body to restrain the knots or rope body at the front of the braided rope. During play, the front of the pet is often subjected to frequent and concentrated stress. This heat-shrinkable sleeve protects the knots or rope body at the front, reducing wear and damage caused by friction and pulling, and extending the lifespan of the front portion of the braided rope.

[0018] 5. This utility model, by setting a fourth reinforcing component, has a stitching thread sewn onto the rope inside the main body. By stitching the ropes together, the continuity of the internal structure of the main body is enhanced. This internal reinforcement method allows the main body to distribute force more evenly when under stress, avoiding excessive local stress that could lead to rope breakage. This improves the overall tensile strength and stability of the main body, ensuring the reliability of the braided rope during use.

[0019] 6. This utility model, by setting a fifth reinforcing component, has stitched the thread to the upper and lower sides of the outer surface of the main body, fixing adjacent ropes together and increasing the connection stability between adjacent ropes after the braided rope is wrapped. During pet play, the braided rope may become tangled; this stitching thread effectively prevents the tangled parts from loosening, maintaining the shape and structural stability of the braided rope, allowing pets to play more smoothly, and also reducing the potential danger of entanglement caused by the rope coming undone.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 4 This application will be described in further detail below.

[0027] Reference Figures 1-4 The present invention provides an embodiment of a pet rope toy reinforcement connector, which includes a braided rope 1 and a main body 2 formed by the braided rope 1 through rope knots. At different key parts of the main body 2, a first reinforcement member 3, a second reinforcement member 4, a third reinforcement member 5, a fourth reinforcement member 6 and a fifth reinforcement member 7 are connected together. The five reinforcement members work together to reinforce the toy from the inside out and from the end to the main body.

[0028] Specifically, the braided rope 1 is preferably a cotton rope or polypropylene rope with two or more strands combined to improve the basic tensile strength and wear resistance. The main body 2 is formed into common pet toy shapes such as column, ball or bone through tight rope knot weaving technology such as flat knot and figure-eight knot.

[0029] The first reinforcement 3 is formed by heat-melting and solidifying the strands at both ends of the braided rope 1. Specifically, after the braiding is finished, the reserved rope ends are cut short, and the ends are burned with a heat source (such as a windproof lighter) to melt the chemical fiber material and quickly press it onto the surface of the adjacent main strands or knots. After cooling, a solidified ball head is formed that is firmly bonded to it. This structure permanently anchors the loose rope ends to the main structure.

[0030] Both the second reinforcement 4 and the third reinforcement 5 are heat-shrinkable sleeves, but they are applied to different locations to achieve zoned constraint. The second reinforcement 4 is tightly fitted onto the surface near both ends of the main body 2. After being heated and shrunk, it generates a circumferential clamping force on the end area of ​​the braided rope 1, limiting the deformation and displacement of this area under stress and preventing the end knots from loosening due to repeated pulling. The third reinforcement 5 is fitted onto the front side of the main body 2 (i.e., the protruding part that pets most often bite or pull), providing additional wear-resistant protection and constraint for the knots and rope in this area, and dispersing local stress.

[0031] The fourth reinforcement 6 is an internal reinforcement structure, made of high-strength stitching (such as nylon thread). Its stitching path is located inside the main body 2. Through the insertion of large stitches, multiple layers or adjacent strands of rope are stitched together in non-exposed areas. This design enhances the continuity and integrity of the internal structure of the main body 2, so that when the toy is subjected to tearing and pulling forces, the internal force can be transmitted more evenly, avoiding local breakage.

[0032] The fifth reinforcement 7 is an external stabilizing structure, also made of high-strength stitching. Its stitching path is located on the upper and lower sides of the outer surface of the main body 2. By stitching and fixing the adjacent ropes on the surface, the connection stability between the strands of the braided rope 1 is significantly increased when it is wrapped or bent under pressure, effectively preventing the rope from accidentally coming loose or creating too large gaps during play.

[0033] The first reinforcement member 3 fixes the end through chemical bonding, the second reinforcement member 4 and the third reinforcement member 5 protect the critical area through physical constraints, and the fourth reinforcement member 6 and the fifth reinforcement member 7 enhance the overall integrity through mechanical connection. The five reinforcement methods complement each other in space and function, and together constitute the reinforcement system.

[0034] The working principle and usage process of this utility model: During use, the braided rope 1 is reinforced by various fasteners on different parts of the rope 1. The main body 2 of the braided rope 1 is woven from knots. During normal use, the actions of pets pulling and playing will generate forces in various directions on the braided rope 1, which may cause the knots to loosen, the rope to wear or even break. The first reinforcement 3, through heat-melting and curing of the rope strands and bonding of adjacent strands and knot surfaces, enhances the structural strength of both ends of the braided rope 1, enabling them to withstand greater tensile force without easily unraveling. The second reinforcement 4, a heat-shrinkable sleeve, is fitted onto the surface of the main body 2, providing positioning and constraint for both ends of the braided rope 1, preventing excessive displacement under stress. The third reinforcement 5, a heat-shrinkable sleeve, is fitted onto the front side of the main body 2, restraining the knots or rope body at the front and preventing damage from frequent friction or pulling. The fourth reinforcement 6, stitched with thread, is sewn onto the rope body inside the main body 2, connecting the rope bodies together and enhancing the continuity of the internal structure of the main body 2, allowing the entire main body 2 to distribute force more evenly under stress. The fifth reinforcement 7, stitched with thread on the upper and lower sides of the outer surface of the main body 2, fixes adjacent rope bodies, increasing the connection stability between adjacent rope bodies after the braided rope 1 is wrapped, and preventing the wrapped parts from loosening. This avoids damage to the toy caused by the loosening of the pet rope knot joint, giving it the advantage of a reinforced joint.

[0035] In summary, this utility model, under the action of the first reinforcing member 3, the second reinforcing member 4, and the third reinforcing member 5, can reinforce the braided rope 1, thereby preventing the toy from being damaged due to the loosening of the joint of the pet rope toy, and giving it the advantage of reinforcing the joint.
