Description

Modular and interchangeable pet chest and back clothing

This creation is about a type of pet clothing, and more particularly about a modular, interchangeable pet chest and back garment.

Most pet harnesses on the market are currently fixed-size, which often leads to ill-fitting conditions for pets with unusual body shapes. Overweight or underweight dogs often cannot find a perfectly suitable size, and growing puppies, due to their rapid body changes, require owners to frequently change harnesses, creating a financial burden.

Even worse, as pets grow or gain weight, the lack of fabric elasticity can take up space in the Velcro straps, reducing the area where the Velcro pieces stick together and affecting the stability and safety of the garment. This is especially noticeable when the pet's size changes. This also increases the risk of clothing fastening failure, allowing the garment to easily come loose with the pet's movements.

Traditional bodice decorations are mostly sewn on, and decorative elements such as bows and skirts cannot be replaced, limiting product diversity and personalization. Owners cannot change the style according to different occasions or personal preferences, resulting in a lack of product versatility.

This invention provides a modular, interchangeable pet harness comprising: a body garment and a plurality of extension straps. The body garment comprises an upper portion and a lower portion, each having an extension strap connector and a buckle. Each extension strap includes a self-assembling component disposed on one side of the extension strap, and a garment connector located at one end of the extension strap and mating to engage with the extension strap connector. The extension straps are configured to pass through the buckles so that the self-assembling components of the extension straps assemble with each other, forming a loop with the body garment.

Therefore, this creation is highly adaptable and expandable. Each component can be replaced independently or assembled arbitrarily, extending the product's lifespan. This structure also reduces the cost for pet owners who need to frequently change their pets' clothing as they grow.

Preferably, the extension strap connector includes fasteners, Velcro, elastic fasteners, or zippers.

Preferably, it further includes a lower garment, including an upper garment fastener for attaching to the lower garment fastener of the upper garment.

Preferably, the upper body closure includes fasteners, Velcro, elastic buckles, or zippers.

Preferably, the lower part of the upper garment further includes a second lining fabric, which is positioned on the inner side of the upper garment, and the lower body fastener is fixed to the second lining fabric and covered by the upper garment.

Preferably, the lower body connector is arranged at equal intervals along the outline of the upper body garment.

Please refer to Figures 1 to 4. A modular, interchangeable pet harness is provided, comprising an upper garment 10 and a plurality of extension straps 30 and 40. The upper garment 10 is a sheet of fabric, comprising an upper portion 11 and a lower portion 12, the upper portion 11 and the lower portion 12 respectively having extension strap fasteners 111 and 121 and buckles 112 and 122. Each of the extension straps 30 and 40 includes self-assembly components 31 and 41 disposed on one side of the extension strap 30 and 40, and garment fasteners 311 and 411 located at one end of the extension straps 30 and 40 and mating to engage with the extension strap fasteners 111 and 121 of the upper garment 10.

The extension straps 30 and 40 are configured to pass through buckles 112 and 122. After passing through the buckles, the self-assembly components 31 and 41 on one side of the extension straps 30 and 40 can assemble with each other, forming a loop 80 with the upper garment 10. The loop 80 formed by the extension straps 30 and 40 and the upper garment 10 allows the assembled garment to be worn on the pet's body and ensures that the garment will not slip off. As a concrete example, the upper part 11 of the upper garment 10 wraps around the pet's neck between the upper part 11 and the extension strap 30. The circular outline 80 between the extension strap 30 and the extension strap 40 and the upper garment 10 allows the pet's upper limbs to pass through without affecting the pet's movement.

Self-assembly components 31 and 41 can use Velcro, allowing users to adjust the length of the Velcro components to create an adjustable securing force. Users can adjust the tightness of the extension straps 30 and 40 according to the pet's size. Self-assembly components 31 and 41 can also use snap fasteners for a more stable connection.

Extension strap fasteners 111 and 121 may include fasteners, Velcro, elastic fasteners, or zippers. Fasteners and elastic fasteners ensure a secure fit between the extension strap and the garment. Velcro provides a quick, adjustable, and reusable connection for easy dressing and undressing. Zippers ensure a tight fit between the two fabrics.

The clothing fasteners 311 and 411 of extension straps 30 and 40 are complementary structures that match the extension strap fasteners 111 and 121 of the upper garment 10. When the clothing fasteners 311 and 411 are combined with the extension strap fasteners 111 and 121, the extension straps 30 and 40 can be securely attached to the upper garment 10 while maintaining their detachable nature. This allows users to replace extension straps of different lengths as needed to adapt to the pet's growth or changes in body size.

The upper garment 10 may further include decorative elements 70. These decorative elements 70 can be placed on the chest area or other suitable locations of the upper garment 10 via other assemblies. The assemblies between the decorative elements 70 and the upper garment 10 can be Velcro, pins, or fasteners. Users can change different styles of decorative elements according to occasion or preference. Decorative elements increase the versatility and personalization of the product. For example, the decorative element 70 here may include patterns of a bra, neckband, tie, pocket, or bow tie, but is not limited to these.

In this embodiment, the garment may further include a lower garment 50, and an upper garment 10 including a lower body connector 151 located in the lower half 12 of the upper garment 10. The lower garment 50 also includes an upper body connector 511. The upper body connector 511 and the lower body connector 151 are combined to form a complete set of clothing. This embodiment provides a separate upper and lower body wearing method, which is convenient for washing and maintenance, and also increases the variety of styles.

Similarly, the upper body connector 511 has a structure that includes fasteners, Velcro, elastic fasteners or zippers, which can be adjusted or combined as needed or required mobility.

For the lower body clothing (item 50), a skirt structure can be used to provide an elegant look. The skirt can be designed with multiple layers to increase visual depth. The material of the lower body clothing can be made of soft fabric to ensure the pet's comfort while wearing it, without restricting normal movement.

In this embodiment, clothing fasteners 311 and 411, and extension strap fasteners 111 and 121 are all four-button fasteners. This allows the clothing fasteners 311 (two four-button fasteners) of the extension strap 30 part to be assembled with the extension strap fasteners 111 (two four-button fasteners) of the upper garment 10 part, so that the extension straps 30 of the same length can form two extension lengths after assembly, allowing for more size variations in pet clothing.

In addition, the extension straps 30 and 40 are designed to accommodate pets of different sizes. The extension straps have sufficient length leeway to ensure ample overlap for the self-assembly components 31 and 41 after passing through buckles 112 and folding back. This design avoids the problem of insufficient contact area in traditional products, improving safety and stability when worn.

In addition, the positions of buckles 112 and 122 can be designed to ensure that the extension strap can form a proper angle and direction when passing through. The inner diameter of the buckle is matched with the width of the extension strap to make it easy to put on and take off while avoiding excessive wear. The buckle material can be made of metal or reinforced plastic to ensure durability for long-term use.

In this embodiment, the lower half 12 of the upper garment 10 also includes a second lining 125. The second lining 125 is sewn to the inside side of the upper garment 10, and the lower body fastener 151 is fixed to the second lining 125. If the pet is only wearing the upper garment 10, the upper garment 10 can cover the lower body fastener 151 of the second lining 125, thus maintaining the integrity of the upper garment 10.

In this embodiment, the lower body fastener 151 is arranged at equal intervals along the outline of the upper body garment 10 or the second lining fabric 125, so as to evenly distribute the fixing strength of the upper body garment 10 and the lower body garment 50 at each position.

Therefore, this new design is highly adaptable and expandable. Each component can be replaced independently or assembled arbitrarily, extending the product's lifespan. This structure also reduces the cost for pet owners who need to frequently change their pets' clothing as they grow.
