Since hammocks can support the weight of people and float in the air, they can provide comfortable rest irrespective of the condition of the ground, and recently their popularity has increased due to the increase in leisure activity.

On the other hand, not only people but also home-grown companions have a desire to take a comfortable rest. They often like to enjoy a high place among the animals that are raised at home or enjoy resting while floating in the air similar to people . House products that can be rested by a companion animal are generally constructed by applying the shape of a bed used by a person, so that the structure is simple and most of the time, it is not possible to provide rest in a floating state like a hammock used by a person to be.

In addition, there are many cases when accompanied by companion animals in outdoor activities. In this case, it is common that the companion animals are accompanied by a house where they can relax outdoors. Since the companion house occupies a large volume There is a problem in that it can be troublesome to carry, and it can not induce the interest of the companion animal because it only provides a resting place where the companion animal can lie down or sit back.

11 is a conceptual view for explaining the operation of the engaging groove 11 and the engaging projection 21 according to the present invention. Referring to the accompanying drawings, detailed operation of the engaging groove 11 and the engaging projection 21 will be described. The following is an explanation.

First, as shown in the accompanying drawings, the coupling groove 11 is formed in a shape of a weak light and a bottom surface is bent in a flexible arc shape. At this time, the coupling protrusions 21 are provided with the corner portions 22 on both sides to be inserted into the undercut U of the coupling groove 11 in a shape corresponding to the coupling groove 11. Since the engaging projection 21 is formed in a shape corresponding to the engaging groove 11, the upper frame 20 is provided with an undercut U 'at a position corresponding to the introducing projection 12 of the lower frame 10. [ Can be formed.

As shown in FIG. 11B, when the companion animal is placed on the hammock assembly in a state where the lower frame 10 and the upper frame 20 are engaged, a compressive load is generated at both ends of the upper frame 20. At this time, since the lower frame 10 is bent in the shape of an arc and both ends are supported on the ground, a bending load acts on the lower frame due to the compressive load acting on the upper frame 20 and the reaction force of the ground.

When the lower frame 10 is subjected to a bending load, the introducing protrusions 12 come off in the arrow direction (dotted line) shown in FIG. 11B and at the same time, the introducing protrusions 12 move the undercuts U ' Thereby causing a predetermined positional deformation. At the same time, by the same principle, the corner portion 22 of the upper frame 20 causes a predetermined positional deformation toward the undercut U of the lower frame 10. That is, the weight of the companion animal can act as a binding force for more firmly fastening the engaging groove 11 and the engaging projection 21.

In addition, when one side of the lower frame 10 on which the coupling groove 11 is formed is viewed, one side portion of the coupling groove is formed in a substantially Z shape so that the contact area with the coupling projection 21 can be increased, A holding force is generated.

12 is an actual photograph schematically showing the texture of the outer circumferential surface of the support portion S according to the present invention. In this case, fine irregularities are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the lower frame 10 and the upper frame 20, It is also possible to add a holding force between them.

The embodiments of the present invention described above are merely illustrative and those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and equivalent embodiments are possible without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, it is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the form described in the foregoing description.
