[0016] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.

[0017] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, an air-conditioned pet cart according to one embodiment of the present invention includes a pet basket 1, a frame body 4, and a temperature-controlled box 2. The pet basket 1 has a main body 11 and a ceiling 12, with the ceiling 12 being provided above the main body 11, which is attached to the frame body 4. An insulating intermediate layer 13 is provided inside the main body 11, and an air vent 111 is provided at one end of the main body 11. The temperature-controlled box 2 is fixed to the other end of the main body 11 and includes a box body 21 and a cooling device 20. The box body 21 is attached to the main body 11, and the cooling device 20 is disposed within the box body 21, with an air outlet provided in the box body 21. The heat insulating intermediate layer 13 is sewn to the inside of the main body 11, which increases the softness of the main body 11 during use and also provides a certain heat retention effect.

[0018] The method of fitting the pet basket 1 and the frame body 4 is an existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The pet basket 1 can be attached to the frame body 4 using an existing fixed or detachable method, and the frame body 4 has four legs at the bottom, each with a caster attached to meet the needs of moving the cart.

[0019] When in use, the box body 21 of the temperature control box 2 can be attached directly to the main body 11, making the installation easy. The cooling device 20 cools the air, and the cooled air flows into the main body 11 through the ventilation holes 111, achieving a temperature-lowering effect and improving the comfort of the pet inside the main body 11. The temperature control box 2 can also be applied to a backpack, achieving a cooling or heating effect for the backpack.

[0020] A sunscreen layer is provided on the outside of the ceiling portion 12, and the ceiling portion 12 and the main body 11 are connected by a zipper, which is located at the top end of the main body 11. The sunscreen layer has the effect of blocking sunlight and suppressing the temperature rise inside the pet basket 1. The sunscreen layer can be formed by adding a silver sunscreen cloth to the outside of the ceiling portion 12.

[0021] An air vent 15 is drilled at the top of the ceiling portion 12, and a shielding cover 16 is provided on the ceiling portion 12, and the shielding cover 16 is disposed corresponding to the air vent 15. The shielding cover 16 is sewn to one side of the air vent 15, and when the air vent 15 needs to be opened, the shielding cover 16 is opened and the main body 11 communicates with the outside through the air vent 15, and when the air vent 15 needs to be closed, the shielding cover 16 is lowered to cover the air vent 15, which is easy to operate.

[0022] A storage bag 17 is sewn onto the outside of the main body 11. The storage bag 17 makes it easy to store a mobile battery, and power can be supplied from the stored mobile battery to the temperature control box 2, improving convenience of use.

[0023] The cooling device 20 includes an insulating plate 22, which is installed within a box body 21. A fan 23 and a semiconductor cooling / heating element 24 are arranged on the insulating plate 22, and the fan 23 is located on one side of the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24. Heat sinks are connected to both sides of the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24. An air intake 211, a first outlet 212, and a second outlet 213 are provided on the side wall of the box body 21, and the first outlet 212 and the second outlet 213 are respectively located on opposite sides of the box body 21. The air intake 211 corresponds to the fan 23, and the first outlet 212 and the second outlet 213 both correspond to the air blowing direction of the fan 23, and the second outlet 213 communicates with the interior of the body 11. The airflow direction of the fan 23 refers to the direction in which the airflow is blown onto the heat sink when the fan 23 rotates. The air intake holes 211 allow the outside air to easily flow into the box body 21.

[0024] The provision of the heat insulating plate 22 prevents the heat emitted from both sides of the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24 from affecting each other, thereby realizing stable cooling or heating of the pet basket 1.

[0025] When the temperature inside the pet basket 1 is high, the air cooled by the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24 flows into the main body 11 from the second outlet 213 by the action of the fan 23, thereby effectively lowering the temperature of the main body 11.

[0026] In actual use, in order to easily control the operating state of the cooling device 20, a control switch is attached to the box body 21, and the control switch is electrically connected to the cooling device 20 to control the power supply state of the cooling device 20. The control switch can be an existing infrared-sensitive automatic switch, a timer switch, a temperature control switch, etc., which makes it easy to adjust the temperature.

[0027] Fixing holes 29 are drilled on the outer periphery of the box body 21, and the box body 21 is sewn and fixed to the main body 11 through the fixing holes 29. Specifically, when it is necessary to fix the temperature control box 2 to the main body 11, the box body 21 is placed at the position of the through-holes drilled in advance in the main body 11, and the box body 21 is sewn and fixed to the main body 11 through the fixing holes 29, thereby ensuring reliable fixation of the entire box body 21.

[0028] A negative ion generator can be installed inside the box body 21 to purify and deodorize the air inside the body 11. The negative ion generator generates negative ions, which are then expelled from the outlet, allowing the surrounding air to contain the negative ions and contributing to improved air quality.

[0029] A first heat sink 25 is connected to one side of the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24, and a second heat sink 26 is connected to the other side. The first heat sink 25 and the second heat sink 26 are respectively located on opposite sides of the heat insulating plate 22. The surface area of ​​the first heat sink 25 is larger than that of the second heat sink 26. When the side where the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24 and the second heat sink 26 are connected is used as the cooling surface, hot air is blown out from the first outlet 212 and cold air is blown out from the second outlet 213 on the other side of the box body 21. Conversely, hot air is blown out from the second outlet 213 and cold air is blown out from the first outlet 212. This achieves continuous cooling or heating function and allows the temperature on both sides of the box body 21 to be quickly adjusted. Therefore, the inside of the main body 11 can be easily cooled or heated according to the actual temperature, meeting various usage needs.

[0030] Mounting holes 221 are drilled in the heat insulating plate 22, and the heat insulating plate 22 and the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24 are connected via the mounting holes 221. The semiconductor cooling / heating element 24 is fixed in the mounting holes 221 (not shown in the drawing because it is shielded by the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24) by adhesive, thereby ensuring reliable fixation of the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24. This makes it easy to mount the semiconductor cooling / heating element 24 via the mounting holes 221, and allows the cooling and heating temperatures to be rapidly conducted to the corresponding heat sink.

[0031] In actual use, a rechargeable power supply can be installed inside the box body 21, and the connection port 218 can be a single interface such as a Type-C interface or a USB interface, or multiple interfaces can coexist to realize functions such as power supply and data transmission.

[0032] As shown in Figure 4, a protrusion 219 is provided on one side of the box body 21, and a slot 210 is formed in the protrusion 219, with air intake holes provided on the outer edge of the slot 210. A mosquito coil or mosquito repellent can be inserted into the slot 210. When a mosquito coil is inserted into the slot 210, the mosquito repellent is diffused into and around the body 11 by the airflow, achieving a mosquito repellent effect. This is particularly suitable for outdoor use or when used as a tent.

[0033] The box body 21 includes an upper cover 215 and a lower cover 216, an insertion hole 217 is drilled on the inside of the lower cover 216, an insertion post is formed on the inside of the upper cover 215, and the insertion post and the insertion hole 217 fit together. During actual assembly, since the insulation board 22 has a through hole 222 drilled therein, when assembling the upper cover 215 and the lower cover 216, the insertion post is first passed through the through hole 222 and then inserted into the insertion hole 217, thereby reliably fixing the insulation board 22 within the box body 21.

[0034] The air-conditioned pet cart further includes a laser lighting lamp 5, and a first mounting groove 27 is provided along the length of one side of the box body 21, the shape of which corresponds to the shape of the laser lighting lamp 5, and the laser lighting lamp 5 is detachably inserted into the first mounting groove 27. The first mounting groove 27 makes it easy to remove and store the laser lighting lamp 5, making it convenient to use the laser lighting lamp 5 outdoors or in dark places, and meeting various usage needs.

[0035] An LED lighting lamp 6 is further provided on the outside of the box body 21. The LED lighting lamp 6 is fixed to the box body 21 and electrically connected to a power source within the box body 21 to easily provide illumination. A second mounting groove 28 is provided along the width direction on the other side of the box body 21. The second mounting groove 28 can easily accommodate tools such as a folding knife, meeting various usage needs.

[0036] The air-conditioned pet cart of this utility model can also be used as an air-conditioned cart for children.
