Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a felt board for a felt cat bed. Background Technology

[0002] Felt has become a common material for making cat beds due to its soft texture, wear resistance, environmental friendliness, and ease of processing. Traditional felt cat beds are usually made by bending or sewing together single or multiple layers of simply stacked felt boards to form a fixed shape such as a basin or nest.

[0003] However, the fixed shape of traditional felt cat beds means that if a heavy cat steps on the felt board for too long, the board will collapse and become unusable. In order to maintain its shape, the cat bed needs to have a certain structural rigidity, but this often sacrifices the natural flexibility of felt. On the other hand, an overly soft structure is difficult to maintain the basic shape of the cat bed and is prone to collapse during the cat's use, affecting the user experience.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field for a new type of felt board to meet the growing demand for cat beds. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a felt board for a felt cat bed that can provide support when a cat steps on it and causes it to sink in, thus extending its service life.

[0006] The technical solution to achieve the purpose of this utility model is as follows: This utility model has a base layer, a deformation layer, and a top layer. The deformation layer is located between the base layer and the top layer. The deformation layer has multiple intermediate components arranged in parallel with each other. Each intermediate component includes two intermediate groups arranged in parallel. Each intermediate group includes multiple intermediate blocks evenly arranged along the horizontal direction. An avoidance space is formed between two adjacent intermediate blocks, allowing the two adjacent intermediate blocks to move with the base layer and the top layer. The two adjacent intermediate blocks are symmetrically arranged about the avoidance space as an axis of symmetry and can rotate around the avoidance space. The avoidance spaces in each intermediate group are located on the same straight line and are interconnected. One side of the intermediate block is fixedly set on the base layer, and the other end of the intermediate block is fixedly set on the top layer. The base layer and the top layer are deformed by the two adjacent intermediate blocks around the avoidance space.

[0007] Furthermore, the intermediate blocks are triangular, and any intermediate block in each intermediate block can be combined with an adjacent intermediate block to form a parallelogram; each intermediate block in an intermediate group is set in a one-to-one correspondence with each intermediate block in another intermediate group belonging to the same intermediate component as the intermediate group, and they are set symmetrically to each other.

[0008] Furthermore, both the base and top layers are equipped with adaptive recesses that correspond to the clearance space.

[0009] Furthermore, the clearance space is a strip-shaped gap with a width between 0.5mm and 5mm to accommodate the relative movement of the base layer and the top layer.

[0010] Furthermore, the intermediate blocks are made of felt material and are made of the same material as the base layer and the top layer; each intermediate block is fixedly connected to the base layer and the top layer by hot pressing or bonding.

[0011] Furthermore, the number of intermediate components is 3 to 10, and each intermediate component is evenly distributed.

[0012] Furthermore, the base layer and top layer are circular, rectangular, or elliptical, and the deformation layer allows the felt to undergo elastic deformation under pressure.

[0013] The present invention has the following positive effects: (1) The core of the present invention is that a unique “deformation layer” is set between the base layer and the top layer. This layer is composed of a series of intermediate blocks connected by “avoidance space”. When the base layer and the top layer are subjected to external pressure or tension, the force will be transmitted through the fixed point of the intermediate block, forcing the adjacent intermediate blocks to rotate relative to each other with the avoidance space as the axis; after the felt board is concave, the rotation of the intermediate blocks can form mutual compression, so that the felt board can form a bowl shape, thereby forming support; at the same time, when the intermediate blocks do not form mutual compression, the toughness of the felt board itself will not be affected.

[0014] (2) In this utility model, the triangular middle block forms a stable triangular support structure with the base layer and the top layer. During the deformation process, the adjacent middle blocks combine to form a parallelogram linkage mechanism, which enables the entire structure to reach a new mechanical equilibrium after deformation, thereby stably maintaining the deformed shape. At the same time, the elasticity of the felt material itself allows the structure to return to the initial flat state after the external force is removed, and it has good fatigue resistance.

[0015] (3) The deformation layer structure of this utility model decomposes the "overall bending" of a single-layer thick felt into multiple "local rotations", effectively dispersing stress concentration and avoiding material fatigue, fracture or permanent deformation caused by repeated stress at the traditional bending point, thus significantly extending the service life of the product.

[0016] To make the content of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings, wherein... Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of this utility model; Figure 2 This is a side view of the present invention; Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram showing the distribution of the intermediate group of this utility model; Figure 4 for Figure 3 A magnified view of part A in the image.

[0017] In the diagram, the base layer is 1, the deformation layer is 2, the top layer is 3, the intermediate group is 4, the intermediate block is 41, the clearance space is 5, and the adaptation recess is 6. Detailed Implementation

[0018] See 1 to Figure 4 This utility model has a base layer 1, a deformation layer 2, and a top layer 3. The deformation layer 2 is located between the base layer 1 and the top layer 3. The deformation layer 2 has multiple intermediate components arranged in parallel with each other. Each intermediate component includes two intermediate groups 4 arranged in parallel. Each intermediate group 4 includes multiple intermediate blocks 41 that are evenly arranged along the horizontal direction. An avoidance space 5 is formed between two adjacent intermediate blocks 41, allowing the two adjacent intermediate blocks 41 to move with the base layer 1 and the top layer 3. The two adjacent intermediate blocks 41 are symmetrically arranged about the avoidance space 5 as the axis of symmetry and can rotate around the avoidance space 5. The avoidance spaces 5 in each intermediate group 4 are located on the same straight line and are interconnected. One side of the intermediate block 41 is fixedly set on the base layer 1, and the other end of the intermediate block 41 is fixedly set on the top layer 3. The base layer 1 and the top layer 3 are deformed by the two adjacent intermediate blocks 41 around the avoidance space 5.

[0019] See details Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 The aforementioned clearance space 5 is also formed between the two parallel intermediate groups 4, and the clearance spaces 5 in the two parallel intermediate groups 4 are interconnected; at the same time, the aforementioned clearance space 5 is also formed between two adjacent intermediate groups 4 in a plurality of parallel intermediate components.

[0020] The core of this invention lies in the unique "deformation layer 2" set between the base layer 1 and the top layer 3. This layer consists of a series of intermediate blocks 41 connected by clearance spaces 5. When the base layer 1 and the top layer 3 are subjected to external pressure or tension, the force is transmitted through the fixed points of the intermediate blocks 41, forcing adjacent intermediate blocks 41 to rotate relative to each other around the clearance spaces 5. This rotation is directional and predictable, thereby guiding the planar felt board to a preset three-dimensional curved surface shape, solving the problem of random deformation of traditional felt boards. At the same time, after the felt board is concave, the rotation of the intermediate blocks 41 can form mutual compression, causing the felt board to form a bowl shape, thus providing support. Meanwhile, when the intermediate blocks 41 do not form mutual compression, the toughness of the felt board itself is not affected.

[0021] The intermediate blocks 41 are triangular, and any one of the intermediate blocks 41 can be combined with an adjacent intermediate block 41 to form a parallelogram. Each intermediate block 41 in one intermediate group 4 corresponds one-to-one with each intermediate block 41 in another intermediate group 4 belonging to the same intermediate component, and they are arranged symmetrically to each other. Because the triangular intermediate blocks 41, together with the base layer 1 and the top layer 3, form a stable triangular support structure, and during deformation, adjacent intermediate blocks 41 combine to form a parallelogram linkage mechanism, the entire structure can reach a new mechanical equilibrium after deformation, thus stably maintaining its deformed shape. Simultaneously, the elasticity of the felt material itself allows the structure to return to its initial flat state after the external force is removed, exhibiting good fatigue resistance.

[0022] Both the base layer 1 and the top layer 3 are provided with adaptive recesses 6 that correspond to the clearance space 5. When the intermediate block 41 rotates relative to the clearance space 5, the base layer 1 and the top layer 3 can adaptably deform.

[0023] The clearance space 5 is a strip-shaped gap with a width between 0.5mm and 5mm to accommodate the relative movement of the base layer 1 and the top layer 3.

[0024] The intermediate block 41 is made of felt material and is made of the same material as the base layer 1 and the top layer 3; each intermediate block 41 is fixedly connected to the base layer 1 and the top layer 3 by hot pressing or bonding.

[0025] The number of intermediate components is 3 to 10, and the intermediate components are evenly distributed.

[0026] The base layer 1 and the top layer 3 are circular, rectangular or elliptical, and the deformation layer 2 allows the felt board to undergo elastic deformation under pressure.

[0027] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When downward pressure is applied to the center of the felt board by hand, the force is transmitted through the base layer 1 and the top layer 3 to the fixed points of each intermediate block 41. Under the action of pressure, adjacent intermediate blocks 41 rotate relative to each other around the clearance space 57 between them. This process causes the central area of ​​the entire flat board to be stably concave downward, while the edge area is correspondingly raised upward, thus forming a stable bowl-shaped or recessed structure. Due to the parallelogram linkage mechanism formed by the triangular intermediate blocks 41, this deformation is smooth and self-locking, and can well maintain the bowl-shaped shape. When restoration is needed, only a reverse force needs to be applied, and the structure can basically return to its flat state.

[0028] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above descriptions are merely specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
