Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a pet door, and in particular to a pet door suitable for use by smaller animals such as cats and/or larger animals such as dogs.
  • Pet doors are often fitted in the doors or walls of a building to allow a pet to enter or leave the building without the need for assistance by their owner.
  • One widely known type of pet door includes a vertically hanging door flap mounted in a support frame, the door flap being pivotably mounted about its upper edge in an aperture in the frame so that the door flap is free to pivot about a horizontal axis. It is known to provide such a pet door with a manually operable four-way lock. This lock can selectively be set by a user to one of four positions.
  • the door flap In a first position the door flap is completely unlocked and is free to pivot in both rotational directions so as to permit both ingress and egress of the pet relative to the building, hi a second position the door flap is completely locked against movement in both directions, hi a third position the lock permits movement of the door flap in only one direction, for example to permit egress from, but not ingress into, the building, and in a fourth position the lock prevents movement of the door flap in the other direction, for example to prevent egress from but permit ingress into the building.
  • a typical four-way lock comprises a manually operable rotary element disposed on one side of the frame, which side is on the inside face of the pet door when the pet door is installed in the building.
  • Radially outwardly extending peripheral parts are provided on the rotary member on both opposite sides of a central section which is aligned with the plane of the door flap when the door flap is closed.
  • the rotary member can be rotated selectively around 360°, and at each of four cardinal directions, which are at 90° to each other, one, two or neither of the radially outwardly extending peripheral parts of the rotary member extend above a lower edge of the door flap and thereby selectively permit or prevent movement of the door flap in the respective direction.
  • Such a manually operable four-way lock for a pet door is inconvenient to use.
  • the lock must be manually operated and so can only be set to a desired lock configuration by the user when the user is present. Also, the user needs to bend down to the pet door so as manually to operate the lock.
  • the above-described pet door is a "non-selective" pet door which permits any animal of suitable size to pass through the door when the door flap is unlocked in the respective opening direction as a result of the configuration of the four-way lock. It is also known to provide so-called “selective" pet doors which allow only specific pets through the door. Such selective pet doors include an additional lock mechanism which is only unlocked to allow the animal to pass through the pet door if the animal is carrying an appropriate key. Such selective pet doors can operate using a key worn by the pet which operates a latch in the frame which is unlatched when the correct key is in the vicinity of the frame. The key can operate using a magnetic field, or by emitting radiation such as infrared radiation or ultrasonic radiation.
  • Such selective pet doors are generally more complicated and expensive than nonselective pet doors and require the pet to carry an appropriate key.
  • the present invention aims to provide a pet door which at least partially addresses and solves the disadvantages of the known pet doors described above.
  • the present invention provides a pet door comprising a frame having an aperture, a door flap pivotally mounted in the aperture, a first locking mechanism including a first locking member and a first electrically operable actuator for selectively moving the first locking member between a locked position and an unlocked position, a second locking mechanism including a second locking member and a second electrically operable actuator for selectively moving the second locking member between a locked position and an unlocked position, the first and second locking members being located respectively to engage laterally opposite sides of the door flap when the door flap is in the closed position within the aperture, selectively to permit or prevent opening of the door flap in a respective opening direction, and a control unit which is adapted independently and selectively to operate the first and second locking mechanism.
  • each locking mechanism comprises a motor as the respective electrically operable actuator, a motor arm connected to an output shaft of the motor, a cam member connected to the motor arm and a reciprocable bolt connected to the cam.
  • the reciprocable bolt is caused to reciprocate between locked and unlocked positions as a result of rotation of the motor shaft in respective opposite rotational directions.
  • the frame includes a guideway in which the reciprocable bolt is received for sliding movement along the guideway.
  • control unit is removably connected to the frame.
  • the frame is provided with a cavity and the control unit is removably housed in the cavity.
  • control unit comprises a programmable timer for selectively operating the first and second electrically operable actuators.
  • control unit further comprises a display for displaying time and a plurality of manually operable controls for programming the control unit.
  • the frame is configured whereby a portion of the frame conceals the manually operable controls when the control unit is housed in the cavity.
  • the control unit is programmable by operation of the manually operable controls when the control unit is remote from the cavity, and the control unit adapted to control the first and second electrically operable actuators after the control unit has been inserted into the cavity.
  • control unit and the frame are respectively provided with complementary first and second electrical connectors which electrically connect the control unit to the electrically operable actuators when the control unit is housed in the cavity, and are separable to permit the control unit to be removed from the cavity.
  • the pet door may further comprise detecting means to detect when the control unit is housed in the cavity.

  • the detecting means is adapted to cause the control unit to control the first and second electrically operable actuators thereby to move the respective locking member into the correct programmed locked or unlocked position for the current time when the control unit is inserted into the cavity.
  • control unit is adapted to detect a current state of the first and second electrically operable actuators.
  • control unit is adapted to set a time period during which each respective first or second locking mechanism is selectively locked or unlocked. More preferably, the control unit is adapted to provide a manual override whereby both the first and second locking mechanisms can be set to an unlocked configuration.
  • the first and second locking mechanisms each have a respective reciprocable locking end part that, in the locking position, is extended into the aperture to be received within a respective corresponding first or second recess provided at a peripheral edge of the door flap.
  • each recess has an open face through which a respective locking end part, when in the locking position, may be slidingly received into the recess when the door flap swings from an open position to a closed position, and a closed face against which the extended locking end part bears when the door flap is in the closed position, the two open faces of the first and second recesses being on respective opposite sides of the door flap.
