Thermo DogBag pet carrier bag with battery-powered heating function

Abstract

The following features of the Thermo DogBag should therefore be protected: 1. The underlying idea of ​​the Thermo DogBag is to integrate a battery-powered heating element into the concept of a pet carrier bag, creating a heat-generating product (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 for the bag's construction). 2. The structure of the Thermo DogBag, which is divided into • Textile components to retain and insulate heat, including a heat-storing inner lining and a wind- and water-repellent, heat-insulating outer material, • The integrated heating element, consisting of a heating mat, connecting cable, and button (for switching on / off and regulating the temperature), is powered by a standard power bank. The Thermo DogBag also features a padded side pocket for safely storing the power bank. 3. The placement of the heating mat (see Fig. 2), which extends only over a certain portion of the bag to allow for ventilation of the bag's interior and to protect against heat build-up (see Fig. 2).

Description

[0001] The invention, called the Thermo DogBag and classified as a pet product, is a carrying / transport bag primarily designed for small dog breeds. It features an integrated, battery-operated heating element. At the touch of a button, this provides the animal with pleasant warmth, protecting it not only from wind and rain during transport, but also effectively from the cold. Specifically designed for cold-sensitive animals, including short-coated breeds as well as individuals with weakened immune systems due to age or illness, the Thermo DogBag not only protects the animal from hypothermia but also from its health consequences. The integrated heating element also distinguishes it from conventional pet transport bags, which are made solely from heat-storing or heat-insulating materials to retain heat.

[0002] To illustrate the structure and function of the Thermo DogBag, the following figures are included in the drawings: - Fig. 1 (“ Fig. 1"): Overall view and features of the Thermo DogBag - Fig. 2 (“ Fig. 2"): Representation of the technical structure of the heating element based on the simplified pattern of the Thermo DogBag

[0003] The Thermo DogBag's concept is fundamentally based on textile and technical components. The textile elements that enhance the bag's thermal function include the soft, heat-retaining inner lining (6), made of fleece, for example, and the wind- and water-resistant, heat-insulating outer material (5), made of softshell, among other materials. The Thermo DogBag's technical components are reflected in the integrated heating element. It contains the following components: 1. The heating mat made of a flexible carrier material with integrated heating wires (For the production of the Thermo DogBag, the heating element is to be ordered as a finished product from a specific supplier; therefore, no assembly work is required. According to the manufacturer, the heating module provided for the Thermo DogBag is waterproof, machine washable and has voltage protection.) (7), which can be heated to various temperature levels by supplying electricity and is incorporated into the jacket as a middle, hidden layer between the inner and outer material. The positioning of the heating mat, which is as shown in Fig.2 illustrates that it extends only over the bottom area and only partially over the sides of the bag, counteracting the risk of heat buildup by allowing warm air to escape upwards. The Thermo DogBag is also equipped with a sufficiently large peephole and a safety leash (3) to prevent the pet from falling out of the bag. 2. The connecting cable (4), which connects the bag's integrated heating element to a standard power bank, functioning as a portable power source. The connecting cable with a USB-C connector is located in a padded side compartment of the bag designed for the power bank. 3. The button (1) located on the outside of the bag, which allows you to switch the heating function of the Thermo DogBag on / off and regulate the temperature level.
