Abstract

The cat or dog basket has a flexible frame made up of a flat base (3) and a curved side wall (4). The lower edge of the inside surface of the side wall has a band of hooked pile fastening fabric (5a) secured to it. The frame of the basket has a waterproof flexible covering fitted over it. The cover has the same shape as the frame and has a complementary band of fastening fabric secured to the outer surface of its side wall. By pressing the two bands together, the cover can be held firmly together but can be separated for cleaning the cover.

Description

La présente invention est relative à une corbeille à housse amovible pour animaux de compagnie tels que chiens et chats. The present invention relates to a basket with a removable cover for pets such as dogs and cats.

On connait déjà des corbeilles de ce genre qui comportent essentiellement une armature en matière souple, par exemple en mousse de matière plastique, constituée par un fond bordé, sur toute sa périphérie, d'une paroi latérale, de manière à former une sorte de cuvette, cette armature souple étant coiffée de la housse amovible. Baskets of this kind are already known which essentially comprise a frame made of flexible material, for example plastic foam, constituted by a bottom bordered, over its entire periphery, with a side wall, so as to form a sort of bowl , this flexible frame being capped with the removable cover.

Cette housse,réalisée généralement en tissu, est découpée et cousue de manière à épouser sensiblement la forme de l'armature souple qu'elle enveloppe et elle présente une partie centrale qui est engagée dans le creux délimité par la paroi latérale de l'armature et son fond. Toutefois, cette partie centrale de la housse n'est pas appliquée étroitement sur la paroi latérale et le fond de l'armature ce qui se traduit par une mauvaise tenue de cette housse qui peut se froisser et qui peut également empêcher que le volume interne de la corbeille soit nettement défini.This cover, generally made of fabric, is cut and sewn so as to substantially match the shape of the flexible frame which it envelops and it has a central part which is engaged in the hollow delimited by the side wall of the frame and its background. However, this central part of the cover is not applied tightly to the side wall and the bottom of the frame, which results in poor performance of this cover which can wrinkle and which can also prevent the internal volume of the basket is clearly defined.

La présente invention vise essentiellement à remédier à ces inconvénients en procurant une corbeille dans laquelle la housse amovible épouse étroitement la forme de l'armature qu'elle enveloppe. The present invention essentially aims to remedy these drawbacks by providing a basket in which the removable cover closely follows the shape of the frame that it envelops.

Cette corbeille à housse amovible pour animaux de compagnie, tels que chiens et chats, comportant une armature souple constituée par un fond bordé, sur toute sa périphérie, d'une paroi latéralle, cette armature étant coiffée de la housse, est caractérisée en ce qu'à la partie inférieure de la paroi latérale de l'armature et/ ou à la partie périphérique de son fond est fixé au moins un élément d'un dispositif de liaison amovible à deux éléments, du type à autoadhérence par simple pression, dont l'autre élément est fixé d'une manière correspondante à la housse dans la zone de celle-ci qui est appliquée contre le premier élément du dispositif de liaison. This basket with removable cover for pets, such as dogs and cats, comprising a flexible frame constituted by a bottom bordered, over its entire periphery, with a side wall, this frame being capped with the cover, is characterized in that '' at the lower part of the side wall of the frame and / or at the peripheral part of its bottom is fixed at least one element of a removable connection device with two elements, of the self-adhesive type by simple pressure, of which l the other element is fixed correspondingly to the cover in the area thereof which is applied against the first element of the connecting device.

La corbeille suivant l'invention offre l'avantage que la housse est ainsi maintenue fermement dans l'angle que forment la paroi latérale et le fond de l'armature, tout autour de ce fond, si bien que cette housse est plaquéeparfaitement contre la paroi latérale et contre le fond, sans faire de plis. On obtient ainsi une corbeille présentant un très bon aspect et dont le volume interne disponible est maximal pour l'animal domestique qu'eikdoit recevoir.  The basket according to the invention offers the advantage that the cover is thus held firmly in the angle formed by the side wall and the bottom of the frame, all around this bottom, so that this cover is pressed perfectly against the wall side and against the bottom, without wrinkling. This gives a basket with a very good appearance and the maximum internal volume available for the pet that eikdoit receive.

On décrira ci-après, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, une forme d'exécution de la présente invention en référence au dessin annexé sur lequel
La figure 1 est une vue en perspective, avec arrachement partiel, d'une corbeille à housse amovible suivant l'invention.
An embodiment of the present invention will be described below, by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the attached drawing in which
Figure 1 is a perspective view, partially broken away, of a basket with removable cover according to the invention.

La figure 2 est une vue en coupe verticale de la corbeille. Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view of the basket.

La figure 3 est une vue en perspective de la corbeille au cours de la mise en place de la housse amovible sur l'armature. Figure 3 is a perspective view of the basket during the establishment of the removable cover on the frame.

La corbeille à housse amovible qui est représentée sur le dessin comprend une armature souple 1 qui est coiffée d'une housse amovible 2. L'armature souple 1 est réalisée de préférence en mousse de matière plastique. Elle comporte un fond 3 de toute forme appropriée, par exemple elliptique, comme il est représenté sur le dessin, et une paroi latérale 4 collée sur la partie marginale périphérique du fond 3. Cette paroi latérale 4 peut avoir la même hauteur tout autour du fond 3 ou présenter une partie de plus faible hauteur, comme dans le cas des corbeilles connues. The basket with removable cover which is shown in the drawing comprises a flexible frame 1 which is capped with a removable cover 2. The flexible frame 1 is preferably made of plastic foam. It has a bottom 3 of any suitable shape, for example elliptical, as shown in the drawing, and a side wall 4 glued to the peripheral peripheral part of the bottom 3. This side wall 4 can have the same height all around the bottom 3 or present a part of lower height, as in the case of known baskets.

Suivant l'invention, la housse 2 est maintenue adhérente à l'armature souple 1 dans la zone de l'angle que forment le fond 3 et la paroi latérale 4. Plus particulièrement, dans la forme d'exécution non limitative représentée sur le dessin, la housse 2 est rendue solidaire de la partie inférieure de la paroi latérale 4 au moyen d'un dispositif de liaison amovible 5 à deux éléments 5a, 5b, du type à auto-adhérence par simple pression, par exemple un dispositif de liaison connu sous le nom de "VELCRO". Ce dispositif de liaison 5 comprend une première bande 5a qui est fixée,par collage ou de toute autre manière, à la partie inférieure de la paroi latérale 4, tout autour de cette paroi ou bien seulement en différents points.Avec cette bande 5a coopère, par auto-adhérence, une autre bande 5b qui est fixée d'une manière correspondante à la housse 2 dans la zone de celle-ci qui est appliquée contre la première bande 5a.  According to the invention, the cover 2 is held adherent to the flexible frame 1 in the area of the angle formed by the bottom 3 and the side wall 4. More particularly, in the non-limiting embodiment shown in the drawing , the cover 2 is made integral with the lower part of the side wall 4 by means of a removable connection device 5 with two elements 5a, 5b, of the self-adhesive type by simple pressure, for example a known connection device under the name of "VELCRO". This connecting device 5 comprises a first strip 5a which is fixed, by gluing or in any other way, to the lower part of the side wall 4, all around this wall or else only at different points. With this strip 5a cooperates, by self-adhesion, another strip 5b which is fixed in a corresponding manner to the cover 2 in the region of the latter which is applied against the first strip 5a.

La figure 3 illustre la façon dont la housse 2 est mise en place sur l'armature souple 1. Cette mise en place commence à partir d'un c6té de l'armature 1 et on applique à cet endroit la bande 5b fixée à la housse 1 sous pression contre la bande Sa solidaire de la paroi latérale 4. Puis on continue à appliquer progres sivement la bande 5b solidaire de la housse, sur l'autre bande Sa, en allant vers l'extrémité opposée de l'armature, jusqu'à ce que la totalité de la bande 5b adhère à la bande 5a. A ce moment, la housse 2 se trouve entre bien tendue sur la paroi latérale 4 de l'armature 1 et elle épouse parfaitement cette paroi latérale en laissant ainsi disponible la totalité du volume interne de la corbeille. FIG. 3 illustrates the manner in which the cover 2 is put in place on the flexible frame 1. This establishment starts from one side of the frame 1 and the strip 5b fixed to the cover is applied at this location 1 under pressure against the strip Sa secured to the side wall 4. Then we continue to apply progressively the strip 5b secured to the cover, on the other strip Sa, going towards the opposite end of the frame, until that the entire strip 5b adheres to the strip 5a. At this time, the cover 2 is between well stretched on the side wall 4 of the frame 1 and it perfectly matches this side wall, thus leaving available the entire internal volume of the basket.

Suivant une variante de réalisation, les deux bandes 5a et 5b pourraient être prévues sur le fond 3, tout autour de celui-ci. According to an alternative embodiment, the two bands 5a and 5b could be provided on the bottom 3, all around the latter.

Os pourrait égalemellt prévoir d'autres dispositifs de liaison du type à auto-adhérence par simple pression en d'autres points du fond 3 et/ou en d'autres point. de la paroi latérale 4. Os could also provide other connecting devices of the self-adhesive type by simple pressure at other points of the bottom 3 and / or at other points. side wall 4.

La partie de la housse qui recouvre la face supérieure du fond 3 peut etre avantageusement pourvue,sur sa face interne, d'une feuille imperméable, pour éviter que l'urine de l'animal domestique ne puisse atteindre le fond 3. The part of the cover which covers the upper face of the bottom 3 can advantageously be provided, on its internal face, with an impermeable sheet, to prevent the urine of the domestic animal from reaching the bottom 3.

De préférence3 la housse 2 recouvre en totalité la face inférieure du fond , comme il apparait sur la figure 2. A cet effets cette housse présente une ouverture 6 s'étendant transversalement et dont les deux livres se chevauchent. Cette ouverture 6 permet d'introduire successivement les deux parties extrêrnes de l'armature souple 1, lors de la mise en plaie de la housse 2. Preferably3 the cover 2 completely covers the underside of the bottom, as it appears in FIG. 2. For this purpose this cover has an opening 6 extending transversely and the two books of which overlap. This opening 6 makes it possible to successively introduce the two extreme parts of the flexible frame 1, when the cover 2 is wounded.

Bien que dans la description qui précède on ait considéré un dispositif de liaison amovible du type "VELCRO", il va de soi que n'importe quel autre type de dispositif similaire pourrait etre utilisé. On pourrait notamment envisager de réaliser une liaison ponctuelle de la housse 2 et de l'armature 1, par exemple au moyen d'organes tels que des boutons-pression disposés à des intervalles appropriés.  Although in the foregoing description a removable connecting device of the "VELCRO" type has been considered, it goes without saying that any other similar type of device could be used. One could in particular consider making a point connection of the cover 2 and the frame 1, for example by means of members such as snaps arranged at appropriate intervals.
