Description

PET CUSHION

BACKGROUND

Technical Field

100011 The present disclosure relates to a pet cushion. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to a pet cushion with a passage structure.

Description of Related Art

100021 Nowadays, dogs and cats are commonly kept as pets. The pets need a warm and soft cushion when they take a rest, and they also need a passage structure to exercise when they are energetic.

100031 Generally speaking, the cushion and the passage structure are separate. Therefore, the cushion and the passage structure have to be bought respectively. Also, how to store the cushion and the passage structure is a problem. The cushion and the passage structure need to be stored, respectively. Furthermore, the passage structure is usually maintained the shape by an annular brace made of hard materials, such as a metal material or a plastic material. Hence, the passage structure only can be folded according to the shape of the annular brace and cannot be folded flexibly. It not only takes more space to store the cushion and the passage structure, but the passage structure is easily squeezed and deformed during storage.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

100191 The present disclosure can be more fully understood by reading the following detailed description of the embodiments, with reference made to the accompanying drawings as follows: 100201 Fig. 1 shows an appearance schematic view of a pet cushion 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and Fig. 2 shows a partially cross-sectional view of the pet cushion 100 according to the embodiment of Fig. 1 In Figs. 1 and 2, the pet cushion 100 includes a main body 110 and a passage structure 120. The passage structure 120 is connected to a surface of the main body 110 By the pet cushion 100, pets can be provided a place to take a rest and play at the same time, and the problem of storage can be solved.

100211 In Fig. 1, the passage structure 120 includes at least two passage main bodies 121 and at least one passage portion 122. In the embodiment of Fig. 1, a number of the passage main bodies 121 is two, and a number of the passage connecting portion 122 is one. The passage connecting portion 122 is connected to an end of each of the passage main bodies 121. A material of the passage connecting portion 122 is the same as a material of the passage main bodies 121, and a shape of the passage main bodies 121 can be maintained by the connection between the passage connecting portion 122 and the passage main bodies 121. Therefore, the manufacturing convenience of the pet cushion 100 can be promoted. Also, because the material of the passage main bodies 121 and the material of the passage connecting portion 122 are the same, the pets will not feel uncomfortable during moving in the passage structure 120. In particularly, cats like narrow space. When the cats pass through the passage structure 120, they will feel surrounded, so that they feel secure. It is worth mentioning that the method of the passage connecting portion 122 connected to an end of each of the passage main bodies 121 can be sewing. The effect of supporting and fixing can be promoted by sewing.

100221 In detail, each of the material of the passage main bodies 121 and the material of the passage connecting portion 122 can include a cloth material 124 and a packing material 125. The cloth material 124 is connected to the main body 110, and the packing material 125 is filled in the cloth material 124. Therefore, the comfort of the pets passing through the passage structure 120 can be promoted by the feeling of the cloth material 124. Also, by filling the packing material 125 in the cloth material 124, the pets feel warm and comfortable when they take a rest, and the passage structure 120 can be maintained a fixed shape that is not deformed by folding.

100231 The main body 110 can include a cloth material 112 and a packing material 113. The packing material 113 of the main body 110 is filled in the cloth material 112 of the main body 110. Therefore, the comfortable feeling can be provided by the cloth material 112, and the soft space provided the pets with rest by the packing material 113. Furthermore, the cloth material 124 of the passage main bodies 121 and the passage connecting portion 122 is connected to the cloth material 112 of the main body 110, and the cloth material 124 is different from the cloth material 112. Therefore, the main body 110 of the pet cushion 100 is differentiated from the passage structure 120 of the pet cushion 100 by the different cloth materials to sort the space of rest and play.

100241 In detail, the cloth material 112 of the main body 110 can be a cotton cloth material or a polyester material, and the packing material 113 of the main body 110 can be a cotton material or a latex packing material. The cloth material 124 of the passage main bodies 121 and the passage connecting portion 122 can be the cotton cloth material or the polyester material, and the packing material 125 of the passage main bodies 121 and the passage connecting portion 122 can be the cotton material or the latex packing material. But the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

100251 Furthermore, the pet cushion 100 can further include a skidproof structure 111. By the skidproof structure 111, the slip condition of the pet cushion 100 can be reduced during the pets passing through the passage structure 120, and the possibility of the pets being injured by the pet cushion 100 slipped can be lowered.

100261 The passage structure 120 can further include at least two supporting portions 123 connected to another end of the at least two passage main bodies 121, respectively. In detail, a number of the supporting portions 123 is two in the embodiment of Fig. 1. By the passage connecting portion 122 of the passage structure 120 and the supporting portions 123 of the passage structure 120, the supporting capability of the passage structure 120 can be provided to make the pets to flexibly pass through the passage structure 120. Compared to the support with hard materials (such as a metal material or a plastic material), because the cloth material 124 and the packing material 125 are used to be the material of the passage connecting portion 122 and the supporting portions 123, the pets will feel more comfortable when passing through the passage structure 120, and the pet cushion 100 can be flexibly folded to be easily stored.

100271 Furthermore, an angle A is formed between the passage main bodies 121. In detail, by the connection of the connecting portion 122, the angle A can be formed between the passage main bodies 121 and disposed according to a shape of the main body 110. In the embodiment of Fig. 1, the angle A between the passage main bodies 121 is 90° according to the rectangle shape of the main body 110, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The angle of the angle A between the passage main bodies 121 can be decided according to the shape of the main body 110 during the manufacturing process.
