This application is a continuation in part of U.S. application Ser. No. 18/364,991 filed 3 Aug. 2023, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. In case of conflict of the incorporation by reference and the disclosure provided directly herein with respect to terms, definitions, or reference or figure numbers, the present disclosure contemplates distinct embodiments directed to each.
The present invention relates to the technical field of cages and, in particular, to a cage for pets.
Most of the existing cages are made of a plastic grid structure, which is not easy to assemble and disassemble, and in the process of use, since the bolts bear most of the pressure, the cage is prone to deformation and loosening under the action of pressure for a long period of time, and the space of the existing cages is limited, so that the cages are not able to ensure the stability of the structure in the case of horizontal unloading and vertical stacking, and in the case of horizontal unloading or vertical stacking of the cages, if there is a problem in a certain part of the cages, the whole cages may be out of balance, which will result in the occurrence of a safety accident, and for this reason we propose a cage for pets to be used to solve the above-mentioned problems.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a cage for pets to solve the problems raised in the above background art.
In order to achieve the above objects, the present invention provides the following technical solution, a cage for pets, wherein it comprises: The cage body comprises: an attachment block assembly, the attachment block assembly comprising: first attachment block and second attachment block; said first attachment block and second attachment block are provided with side walls, the first attachment block comprising first top bulge and first bottom bulge, the first top bulge extending upwards and having a certain height and the first bottom bulge extending downwards and having a certain height; said second attachment block comprising second bottom bulge and at least one second top bulge, said second top bulge extending upwardly and having a certain height and said second bottom bulge extending downwardly and having a certain height; said first attachment block is provided with first connection hole in the centre and said second attachment block is provided with second connection hole in the centre.
Compared with the existing technology, the present invention has the following beneficial effects, the cage is easy to assemble and disassemble, and can be horizontally unloaded and vertically stacked to expand the number of cages used, the cage has a support bar, and the support bar is provided with support column which interacts with each other to make the structure of the cage more stable, and the cage components are easy to dismantle, which makes it easy to dismantle and install, and gives the user a better experience of use.
