Abstract

A pet flap comprises a door constructed in two elements, an uppermost part hinged at its top and a lower door element. The portal may be circular and rotatable and can be rotated from its locking position or to its entry/exit mode. The door's locking system may comprise two locking mechanisms that are housed within the lower door frame sides and offer three way locking.

Description

<p>1. 2432615</p>
<p>TITLE</p>
<p>Animal Entry/Exit Safety Rotatable Door System</p>
<p>Specification</p>
<p>This invention introduces additional safeguards against animal entrapment it comprises a free swinging door that is hinged at the top; the door is further hinged at its lower centre-point so that in the event of an obstruction occurring under the door, then the centre hinge would fold until the obstruction is cleared.</p>
<p>Locking System for the Door The door's circular design allows it to be rotated 90 into its lockable position; the locks for the door are housed within the sides of the surrounding door frame and are activated manually.</p>
<p>The invention thus provides an animal entry/exit safety system in accordance with the Claims appended hereto.</p>
<p>My invention will now be described by way of example and with reference to the accompanying drawings in which: Drawing 1/5 Fig. IA Member 2 is shown as the top hinge of the door and whose sides locate within the top inside opening of frame member 1. Member 4 is the control handle for rotating the circular door beneath it.</p>
<p>Member 6 is the rotatable door in its opening position.</p>
<p>Member 3 is the semi-circular enclosure within which the door can be rotated 90 .</p>
<p>Member 5 is a continuous strip hinge.</p>
<p>Members 7 are the holding magnets within the lower door and frame Fig 2A Member 6, the rotatable door is shown in its lockable position.</p>
<p>Member 9 shows the door-lock handle in its unlocked position.</p>
<p>Member S is the door lock follower.</p>
<p>Drawing 2/5 Fig 3A Figure 3A is a dissembled view of the circular door. Member 10 is the surrounding raised edge of the circular door Fig 4A Figure 4A shows the door in its open position Drawing 3/5 Fig. 5A Figure 5A is an exploded view of the lower right hand section of Member 1 that houses the (egress) door lock.</p>
<p>Member ii shows the door lock in its forward locking position.</p>
<p>Member 12 is the housing void for Member 11 Fig 6A Figure 6A shows (ingress) Member 11 within its unlocked position. 2.</p>
<p>Fig 7A Figure 7A is a diagrammatic view of the internal workings of the locking system.</p>
<p>Drawing 4/5 Fig 8A No. 13 shows a dissembled profile view of the door, Member 2 being the door top hinge pins, the ends of which locate within the top inside edge of the door frame (Member 1) and from which the door pivots Member 4 is the control handle by which the circular door can be rotates 900 either way.</p>
<p>Member 10 is a sectional view of the circular door rim and in which is shown the tail of Member 4 that is embedded within the rim matrix.</p>
<p>Member 5 shows the centre hinge of the circular door Drawing 5/5 Fig. 9A Number 14 indicates the 280 pivotal range of the circular door's hinge.</p>
<p>Fig. 1OA Number 15 shows the door's 180 opening rage. 3.</p>

Claims (2)

  1. <p>CLAIMS</p>
    <p>I. An animal entry/exit safety system comprising a door and a locking system therefore, the door being hinged at a top end thereof and is further hinged at a lower point thereof
  2. 2. An animal entry/exit safety system according to Claim I further comprising attachment means for coupling the door to the top of a frame and allowing the door to swing inwards and outwards through a radius of at least 180 degrees.</p>
    <p>3 An animal entry/exit safety system according to any proceeding claim, wherein the door has a circular lower element that can be manually rotated between an open position and a locking position.</p>
    <p>4 An animal entry/exit safety system according to either one of Claims 2 and 3 wherein the attachment means for the rotatable door is provided by way of a raised rim of the door, which allows a top edge of the circular lower element to be captured (yet rotatable) within a lower part of the door's (higher) second element.</p>
    <p>5. An animal entry/exit safety system according to any proceeding claim, when the hinged lower point of the door is in a lateral position then the door is ready for entry or exit and to give way to any obstruction that may occur beneath it.</p>
    <p>6. An animal entry/exit safety system according to any one of Claims 3 to 5, wherein circular lower element is placed in its locking position by moving a control handle and by doing so, the hinge thereof is moved into a perpendicular position.</p>
    <p>7 An animal entry/exit safety system according to any proceeding claim, whose door locking system comprises two locks that are housed within the sides of a lower door frame and offer three way locking choices.</p>
