This application claims the priority of Chinese Patent Application No. 201520584353.0, filed on Aug. 5, 2015, the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The present invention relates to pet tags, in particular to pet tags with location and alarm functions.
At present, more and more people like to keep pets. Owners take care of their pets carefully. It can be said that food, clothes and other things are all readily available for pets, and owners treat their pets like members of the family or treat them as their children and do their best to take care of them. Pets are very cute regardless cats or dogs, and pets help reduce our stress.
Generally, people raise their pets in captivity to prevent them from getting lost. However, pets, especially cats and dogs, are very lively and active, and more and more owners like to have their pets freely move around at home in order to keep the physical and psychological health of the pets. However, pets have no self-control capability and they often would venture away from safe activity areas. It was really heartbreaking that many cats and dogs are lost every year
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to said problem, and an objective of the invention is to provide pet tags with location and alarm functions.
Objects of the present invention may be realized in the following manners:
In accordance with embodiments of the invention, a pet tag with location and alarm functions comprises a bottom shell, a cover, and a circuit board. Two convex poles are symmetrically disposed on the bottom of the bottom shell (on the top face), and a threading hole is disposed on a piece protruding outwards from the edge of the bottom shell. The circuit board may be equipped with an electric horn sound-generating device, a power supply, a signal transceiving device, and two positioning holes corresponding to the locations of the two convex poles. The circuit board is installed in the bottom shell by means of the matching of the positioning holes and the convex poles, and the cover covers the bottom shell and accommodates the circuit board therein.
In accordance with embodiments of the invention, the signal transceiving device may communicate with a user device (e.g., a mobilephone) through Bluetooth, a wireless mode or an infrared mode.
In accordance with embodiments of the invention, the devices may be made waterproof For example, a waterproof ring may also be disposed on a part where the bottom shell is connected with the cover in a covering manner.
In accordance with embodiments of the invention, the bottom shell and the cover may be connected by any suitable means. Such as by the matching of clamping keys and clamping buckles, respectively, disposed on the edge of the bottom shell and the edge of the cover.
In accordance with embodiments of the invention, a corresponding notch may be disposed in a part, where the bottom shell is connected with the cover in a covering manner, to facilitate the opening of the bottom shell and the cover from a covering (closed) state.
In accordance with embodiments of the invention, the power supply may be detachably installed in the device (e.g., on the circuit board). In accordance with embodiments of the invention, the power supplies may be batteries.
In accordance with embodiments of the invention, the bottom shell (2) and the cover (1) may be of any shape (e.g., a bone shape) after being at a covered (closed) state.
Embodiments of the present invention have one or more of the following beneficial effects:
1) A pet tag of the invention is equipped with a signal transceiving device and a electric horn sound-generating device. After a pet uses the pet tag, the electric horn can generate sound to remind an owner once the pet goes out of a safety area; and after the pet is lost, the running distance of the pet can be rapidly calculated through the signal transceiving device, and the pet can be found quickly in cooperation with sound generation of the electric horn.
2) The pet tag is equipped with the waterproof ring in a part where the bottom shell and the cover are connected in a covered manner, so that the waterproofness of the pet tag can be effectively improved.
The present invention will be further illustrated below with specific examples and the attached drawings.
By reference to
The circuit board 3 is installed in the bottom shell 2 through the matching of the positioning holes 31 and the convex poles 21. During assembly, the circuit board 3 can be fixed in the bottom shell 2 conveniently, for example, by melting the convex poles 21. The cover 1 covers the bottom shell 2 and accommodates the circuit board 3 therein. The pet tag at a covering state (i.e., assembled state) may be of any shape (e.g., a bone shape).
In order to enhance the waterproofness of the pet tag, the waterproof ring 4 is also disposed on a part where the bottom shell 2 and the cover 1 are connected in a covering manner.
In order to facilitate to replace the power supply, the bottom shell 2 and the cover 1 are connected by the matching of clamping keys and clamping buckles respectively disposed on the edge of the bottom shell 2 and the edge of the cover 1. The power supply is detachably mounted on the circuit board 3.
In order to further facilitate to open the bottom shell 2 and the cover 1 that are at a covering state together, a corresponding notch 23 is also disposed on a part where the bottom shell 2 and the cover 1 are connected in a covering manner.
The pet tag is generally matched with the mobilephone for use and communicates with the mobilephone through the signal transceiving device. After a pet uses the pet tag, the electric horn can generate sound to remind an owner once the pet goes out of a safety area; and after the pet is lost, the signal transceiving device can calculate the running distance of the pet rapidly and transmit the running distance information to the mobilephone, and it is convenient for owners of pets to find out their pets according to the running information and sound emitted by the electric horn.
