Description
- This application claims the benefit of, and incorporates by reference, U.S. provisional patent application Ser. No. 62/589,710, entitled “Pet Travel Case,” which was filed on Nov. 22, 2017.
- The present general inventive concept relates generally to a travel case, and particularly, to a travel case specifically designed for carrying items related to pets.
- Traveling is a popular activity for many people. Particularly, when people travel for an extended period of time, they need to bring a suitcase or other means of carrying clothing and cosmetics.
- When pet owners decide to travel, they may choose to take their pets with them, which requires packing pet-related essentials such as pet food, feeders, medicine, etc. Currently, there are no travel cases dedicated to pets on the market, causing individuals to load pet supplies in plastic bags or other odd carriers.
- Therefore, there is a need for a travel case targeted specifically for the needs of pets.
- The present general inventive concept provides a pet travel case.
- Additional features and utilities of the present general inventive concept will be set forth in part in the description which follows and, in part, will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the general inventive concept.
- The foregoing and/or other features and utilities of the present general inventive concept may be achieved by providing a pet travel case, including a main body to store pet supplies therein and for a pet to stand thereon, the main body including at least one drawer removably disposed within a side of the main body to store therewithin at least a portion of the pet supplies, at least one wheel removably disposed on the main body to cause the main body to move when a force is applied thereto, and a retractable handle disposed within the main body to facilitate movement of the main body.
- The at least one drawer may store at least one of pet medicine, water bottles, treats, food, water bowl, and food bowl.
- The pet travel case may further include at least one pocket to store non-perishable items.
- The at least one pocket may store at least one of pet trinkets, toys, leashes, harnesses, and clothing.
- The main body may further include a bungee cord removably disposed on at least a portion of the main body to secure the pet to the main body by limiting movement of the pet.
- The main body may further include a textured mat removably disposed on at least a portion of the main body to prevent the pet from slipping.
- The textured mat may be at least one of a solid smooth surface, a bubbled surface having protrusions extending therefrom, and a mesh.
- These and/or other features and utilities of the present generally inventive concept will become apparent and more readily appreciated from the following description of the embodiments, taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of which:
-
FIG. 1 illustrates a front view of a pet travel case, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present general Inventive concept; -
FIG. 2 illustrates a rear view of the pet travel case, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept; -
FIG. 3 illustrates a top view of the pet travel case including drawers that are opened, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept; -
FIG. 4A illustrates a planar zoomed in perspective view of a first side of the pet travel case including a drawer locking mechanism in an locked position, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept; and -
FIG. 4B illustrates a planar zoomed in perspective view of the first side of the pet travel case including the drawer locking mechanism in an unlocked position, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept. - Various example embodiments (a.k.a., exemplary embodiments) will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings in which some example embodiments are illustrated. In the figures, the thicknesses of lines, layers and/or regions may be exaggerated for clarity.
- Accordingly, while example embodiments are capable of various modifications and alternative forms, embodiments thereof are shown by way of example in the figures and will herein be described in detail. It should be understood, however, that there is no intent to limit example embodiments to the particular forms disclosed, but on the contrary, example embodiments are to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the scope of the disclosure. Like numbers refer to like/similar elements throughout the detailed description.
- It is understood that when an element is referred to as being “connected” or “coupled” to another element, it can be directly connected or coupled to the other element or intervening elements may be present. In contrast, when an element is referred to as being “directly connected” or “directly coupled” to another element, there are no intervening elements present. Other words used to describe the relationship between elements should be interpreted in a like fashion (e.g., “between” versus “directly between,” “adjacent” versus “directly adjacent,” etc.).
- The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of example embodiments. As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. It will be further understood that the terms “comprises,” “comprising,” “includes” and/or “including,” when used herein, specify the presence of stated features, integers, steps, operations, elements and/or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components and/or groups thereof.
- Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which example embodiments belong. It will be further understood that terms, e.g., those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art. However, should the present disclosure give a specific meaning to a term deviating from a meaning commonly understood by one of ordinary skill, this meaning is to be taken into account in the specific context this definition is given herein.

FIG. 4A illustrates a planar zoomed in perspective view of thefirst side 110 a of thepet travel case 100 including a drawer locking mechanism in a locked position, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept. -
FIG. 4B illustrates a planar zoomed in perspective view of thefirst side 110 a of thepet travel case 100 including the drawer locking mechanism in an unlocked position, according to an exemplary embodiment of the present general inventive concept. - Referring to
FIGS. 1 through 4B , the at least onedrawer 111 may include afront surface 111 a, aninner portion 111 b, at least one drawer handle 111 c, anupper bar 111 d, and alower bar 111 e, but is not limited thereto. - Referring to
FIG. 3 , the at least onedrawer 111 may be removably disposed within thefirst side 110 a. The at least onedrawer handle 111 c may be disposed on thefront surface 111 a. The user may pull (slide) the at least onedrawer 111 in an outward direction away from thefirst side 110 a using the at least onedrawer handle 111 c. The at least onedrawer 111 may be considered in an open position. Moreover, from the open position, the user may push the at least onedrawer 111 towards themain body 110 until afront surface 111 a of the at least onedrawer 111 is substantially flush with thefirst side 110 a. The at least onedrawer 111 may be considered in a closed position. The at least onedrawer 111 may use rails and/or brackets for movement, but is not limited thereto. The at least onedrawer 111 may extend across at least a portion of a length of thefront side 110 a, beginning from thesecond side 110 b and terminating at thefourth side 110 d. The at least onedrawer 111 may store pet supplies on theinner portion 111 b, including at least one of pet medicine, water bottles, treats, food, water bowl, and food bowl, etc., but is not limited thereto.
