Technical Field
[0001] The present utility model patent relates to a pet pee pad and its packaging box.
Technology Background
[0002] More and more families are starting to keep pets, and for convenience and hygiene reasons, people are accustomed to using various functional pet pee pads for their pets.
Technology Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a convenient and practical pet pee pad. [0004] The first aspect of the utility model provides a pet urine pad, comprising:
[0005] Tear resistant layer, located at the top of the pet pee pad when in use (used as a surface layer), made of tear resistant material (used to make the pet pee pad difficult to be accidentally torn):
[0006] Leak proof layer, located at the bottom of the pet pee pad when in use (used as a backing layer), made of leak proof material (used to prevent pet urine from leaking out and causing contamination):
[0007] Water absorbing layer, located between the tear resistant layer and the leak proof layer, made of water absorbing material (used to hold or lock urine to quickly dry the surface of the pet urine pad and lock in odors); and [0008] pH display layer (used to visually display the pH value of urine).
[0009] The tear resistant layer is made of any suitable tear resistant material such as non-woven fabric. The leak proof layer is made of any suitable leak proof material such as PE plastic or PP film. The absorbent layer is made of any suitable absorbent material, such as absorbent wood paddles. [0010] According to one embodiment of the present utility model, the pet pee pad may further include a water absorbing material fixing layer made of a water permeable material, which is tightly attached to either side of the water absorbing layer. For example, the fixing layer of the absorbent material may include an upper fixing layer and a lower fixing layer, which are respectively set closely to the upper and lower sides of the absorbent layer. This fixed layer made of permeable materials such as toilet paper can play a role in attaching and fixing water absorbing materials such as wood pulp.
[0011] In the above embodiments, the pH display layer may be an independent layer or composed of one of a tear resistant layer, a water absorbing material fixing layer, and a leak proof layer containing a pH display component. In the latter case, the pH display component can be included in one of the tear resistant layer, the water absorbent material fixing layer, and the leak proof layer in a uniform discontinuous or continuous pattern. Although the pH display layer can be independently set, it is preferred to have other layers also serve as the pH display layer to simplify the manufacturing process.
[0012] In the above embodiments, the planar dimensions of the tear resistant layer and the leak proof layer can be completely identical, and the planar dimensions of the water absorbing material fixing layer and the water absorbing layer can be completely identical; The plane dimensions of the water absorbing material fixing layer and the water absorbing layer are smaller than those of the tear resistant layer and the leak proof layer, and can be centered. The parts of the tear resistant layer and the leak proof layer that do not overlap with the water absorbing layer can be joined together. This structural design can facilitate manufacturing and reduce manufacturing costs.
[0013] In the above embodiments, the water absorbing layer and the water absorbing material fixing layer can be pressed together and form concave guide grooves at the corresponding pressing positions. For example, concave flow channels can extend in the form of diamond shaped units. The concave guide groove plays a dual role in combining the water absorbing layer and the water absorbing material fixing layer together and guiding urine downwards.
[0014] In other embodiments of the present utility model, the shape of the urine pad may be rectangular, with a side length between 200mm and 1500mm, preferably between 400mm and 1000mm, and more preferably between 500mm and 700mm. In addition, the thickness of the water absorbing layer can be between 0.5 millimeters and 3 millimeters.
[0015] The second aspect of the utility model provides a pet pee pad packaging box, comprising a box body and the above-mentioned pet pee pad packaged in the box body. On the side of the box, there may be (e.g. printed) pH reference color codes. The box body can be made of any suitable hard or soft material.
[0016] The present utility model has one or more advantages as follows: It can help pet owners assess the health status of pets based on the pH reference value of their urine; It can quickly dry and lock in urine dampness; It can provide antibacterial protection to prevent odors from microorganisms; It can also simplify manufacturing processes and reduce manufacturing costs.
