Abstract
Description
[0001] The invention relates to a soundproofed dog box consisting of a base plate, 4 side walls, entrance and a lid according to the preamble of claim 1.
[0002] The soundproofed dog crate takes the fear out of thunderstorms and New Year's Eve and remains a safe retreat for the dog all year round.
[0003] A multi-layered wall construction significantly dampens disturbing noises such as fireworks, thunder, or traffic noise. The dog experiences considerably less stress and can calm down.
[0004] The entrance to the dog crate is created by a parallel inner wall extending to the middle of the crate, forming an S-shaped, sound-insulating access to the interior of the dog crate.
[0005] An advantageous feature of the invention is the flap at the top. The flap allows direct access to the dog inside the dog crate, or can also be used for cleaning purposes.
[0006] According to the invention, the side walls, base plate, and lid can be detachably screwed together. The individual elements can thus be transported and stored in the trunk or rear seat of a car.
[0007] Furthermore, according to the invention, the dog crate can be manufactured with different surface finishes. Possible surfaces include plastic coating, opaque paint finish, or natural wood.
[0008] An embodiment of the invention is described with reference to the Fig. 1, Fig. 2 to Fig. 3 explained. It shows: Fig. 1. The soundproofed dog crate Fig. 2 the soundproofed dog crate with open lid Fig. 3 a schematic representation of the multi-layered wall structure
[0009] The in Fig. The dog box 10 shown in Figure 1 consists of four right-angled side walls 12, a base plate 11, an entrance 13, and a lid 14 placed on the side walls 12. The basic shape of the dog box 10 is rectangular.
[0010] At the in Fig. In the illustrated version 1, the front 12 shows the entrance 13 into the dog box 10.
[0011] The lid 15 in Fig. 1 is equipped with a handle 19 and hinges 16.
[0012] In Fig. Figure 2 of the dog crate 10 shows the entrance 13 with the lid 15 open 180° and the parallel inner wall extending to the middle of the dog crate. The interior space 18 is the sleeping or lying area for the dog.
[0013] In Fig.Figure 3 shows the four-layer wall construction. The sound-insulating effect is achieved through the combination of materials with varying degrees of hardness and softness.
