Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a pet belt. More specifically, the present invention relates to a pet belt that can be put on and taken off by pets of all sizes without annoying putting on and taking off noises. [Background technology]

[0002] Pets, such as dogs and cats, are kept in the home. In order to claim their territory, pets urinate on the walls and furniture of the room to mark the area, which can soil the room. In addition, as the nutritional status and living environment of pets have improved, pets are also aging like humans. As a result, the number of pets requiring care is increasing, and the room can be soiled by their urine, defecation, and other excrement. In this situation, pet diapers that absorb pet excrement and pet belts for attaching the diapers to pets have been provided. Various methods have been proposed for pet belt technology, and the conventional technology will be described based on patent documents.

[0003] The animal diaper of Patent Document 1 provides a technology that prevents the diffusion of excreted urine while improving the convenience of putting it on. However, the animal diaper of Patent Document 1 has a problem that the animal is frightened by the sound of the hook-and-loop fastener fastening because it is put on and taken off by the animal with a hook-and-loop fastener attached to the end of the attachment part. In addition, the animal diaper of Patent Document 1 has a problem that it is necessary to prepare a product for each size of the animal because it is put on and taken off by the hook-and-loop fastener attached to the end of the attachment part.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Utility Model Registration No. 3223153 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] The present invention is based on such a social and technical background, and achieves the following objectives: The pet belt 1 of the present invention can be put on and taken off by pets of all sizes without being bothersome with the sound of putting it on and taking it off. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention takes the following measures. (1) The pet belt of claim 1 is characterized in that it comprises a main body 10 formed of an elastically deformable belt-like fabric, which is looped and worn around the body of a pet, an engaging part 20 formed by fluffing ultrafine fibers formed on all or part of the back side of the main body, singeing the fibers, and hot melt pressing the fibers to form an ultrafine cotton-like tip, and a loop-shaped engaged part 30 formed on all or part of the front side of the main body, which engages with the engaging part when the engaging part comes into surface contact with the engaging part. (2) The pet belt according to claim 2 is characterized in that the engaging portion is formed in a porous structure in which extremely small voids are formed and which absorbs sound. Effect of the Invention

[0007] As described above, the pet belt of the present invention can be put on and taken off by pets of all sizes without being bothersome with the noise it makes when put on and taken off. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0008] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a pet belt 1. As shown in FIG. [Diagram 2] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a state in which the pet diaper PD is attached to the pet belt 1. As shown in FIG. [Diagram 3] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a state in which the pet belt 1 is attached to a pet. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0009] (1) Overview of the embodiment The pet belt of this embodiment is characterized by comprising: a main body 10 formed of an elastically deformable belt-like fabric, which is looped and worn around the pet's body; an engaging part 20 formed by fluffing, singeing, and hot melt pressing thermoplastic ultrafine fibers that form all or part of the back side of the main body, and having an ultrafine cotton-like tip; and a loop-shaped engaged part 30 formed on all or part of the front side of the main body, with which the engaging part engages when the engaging part comes into surface contact. The pet belt of this embodiment can be put on and taken off by pets of all sizes without bothering about the noise it makes when put on and taken off.

[0010] (2) Details of the embodiment First Embodiment A pet belt 1 according to a first embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a pet belt 1, where (a) shows the back side and (b) shows the front side.

[0011] [Pet Belt 1] As shown in Fig. 3, the pet belt 1 in the first embodiment is a belt to be worn on the body of a pet P. As shown in Fig. 1, the pet belt 1 includes a main body portion 10, an engaging portion 20, an engaged portion 30, and an edge portion 40.

[0012] [Main body 10] The main body 10 is a member that can be wrapped around the pet's body by forming it into a loop. As shown in FIG. 1, the main body 10 is a belt-like soft fabric that extends from side to side, and is formed into a substantially rounded rectangular shape. The main body 10 is an extremely thin belt-like material made of threads containing thermoplastic ultrafine fibers, and is formed to a thickness of, for example, 1.5 mm. The main body 10 uses a plain-woven taffeta that is smooth on both sides. This taffeta has low ridges in the horizontal direction using weft threads that are thicker than the warp threads.

[0013] [Engagement portion 20] The engaging portion 20 is a portion in which the thermoplastic ultrafine fibers forming all or part of the back side of the main body 10 are fluffed, singed, and hot melt pressed to form the tips into ultrafine cotton-like fibers. The back side of the main body 10 is brushed with a machine, or rubbed with sandpaper to fluff the thermoplastic ultrafine fibers. Next, the back side of the main body 10 is singed to naturally melt and aggregate the ends of the thermoplastic ultrafine fibers, and processed into beads and / or columns. Next, the back side of the main body 10 is hot melt pressed, and the beads and columns are melted and softened by heat, and pressed against the weave of the surrounding fabric, transforming into the engaging portion 20 in which the fibers are irregularly intertwined in a complex manner and in which countless tiny voids exist.

[0014] [Engaged portion 30] The engaged portion 30 is formed on all or part of the front surface side of the main body portion 10, and is a loop-shaped portion with which the engaging portion 20 engages when the engaging portion 20 comes into surface contact with the engaged portion 30. The engaged portion 30 is formed by including a microfiber heat shrinkable yarn in the main body 10 and loosening the microfiber by heat to form a loop. The engaged portion 30 may also be formed in a loose loop on the surface of the main body 10 by the weaving method of the towel fabric.

[0015] [Edge portion 40] The edge portion 40 is a member sewn to cover the edge of the main body portion 10. The edge portion 40 is a decoration that decorates the edge of the main body portion 10, and is also a member that reinforces the edge of the main body portion 10. As shown in FIG. 1, the edge portion 40 is formed in a rectangular frame shape with rounded corners that outlines the contour of the main body portion 10.

[0016] [How to use] Next, a method of using the pet belt 1 will be described. Fig. 2 is a diagram showing the state where the pet diaper PD is attached to the pet belt 1. Fig. 3 is a diagram showing the state where the pet belt 1 is attached to a pet, (a) being a front view, (b) being a rear view, and (c) being a side view. First, a commercially available pet diaper is attached to the approximate center of the engagement part 20 side of the pet belt 1. The pet diaper PD is placed between the pet P's legs, and the pet belt 1 is wrapped around the pet P's body.

[0017] The pet belt 1 has good elasticity and can be put on and taken off by pets of all sizes. The engagement part 20 of the pet belt 1 is composed of countless tiny voids, and when sound waves enter these voids, the sound is absorbed by the friction between the fibers and the air, reducing noise when wearing or taking off the belt. In other words, when removing a general hook-and-loop fastener, vibrations are generated due to deformation when the hook separates from the loop, which vibrates the fabric and vibrates the air, resulting in a characteristic "rattling" sound. However, the pet belt 1 does not make the loud "rattling" sound of a hook-and-loop fastener, and can be put on and taken off without startling the pet.

[0018] Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and can be modified within the scope of the purpose and intent of the present invention. [Explanation of symbols]
