JP7638012B2 - Raised platform and washing tank - Google Patents

Description

The present invention relates to a raised base and a washing tank that are inserted into a pet washing tank to safely wash dogs and the like and reduce the physical burden on the worker.

With previous washing tables (Patent Document 1), the dog's abdomen is fixed to the washing table, making it difficult to wash the lower part of the dog. In addition, the area to be fixed is large, and the dog is unable to move, which causes a lot of mental stress for the dog, and it is expected that the dog will become violent when fixed to the washing table for the second or subsequent times.

JP 2006-158299 A

General cleaning tanks are designed for large dogs, so they are deep and washing a small dog requires the worker to bend over, which puts a lot of strain on the body.

A safety leash is usually attached to the outside of the cleaning tank to prevent the dog from escaping, but in that case the dog can easily place its front legs on the edge of the tank or stand up on its hind legs, making it difficult for the worker to constantly hold the dog down while cleaning.

If the safety cord is installed outside the washing tank or on the upper side, shortening the safety cord will bring the side of the dog close to the side of the washing tank , making cleaning difficult.

Many workshops do not have a large space and cannot accommodate a cleaning tank that can wash both large and small dogs.

Metal fittings 5 for attaching a safety cord 6 are attached to the left and right sides of the top plate 2 of the lifting base.

The depth and width of the raised base are set smaller than those of the existing cleaning tank 1 so that the raised base can be inserted into the cleaning tank 1 .

The height of the legs 3 of the raised base is set so that the worker does not have to bend significantly when washing the short dog 7. The optimum height of the raised base is set so that the worker can reach the top plate 2 with his/her fingertips while slightly bending his/her back after placing the raised base in the washing tank 1 .

To prevent a dog 7 from slipping on the top board 2 and being injured by the metal fittings 5 to which a safety cord 6 is attached , a slatted floor is used at a height that hides the metal fittings 5 .

In the present invention, by providing a raised base in the washing tub 1 for large dogs, small dogs can also be washed in the existing washing tub 1 without any burden on the person washing them.

By attaching the safety cord 6 to the left and right mounting metal fittings 5 , the right and left sides of the dog 7 can be easily washed.

A safety string 6 is attached to a metal fitting 5 for fixing the safety string 6 at the bottom and fixed to the length from the feet of the dog 7 to the shoulder position by the safety string 6 , so that the dog 7 cannot stand up on its hind legs alone and there is no risk of it falling out of the cleaning tank 1 .

The safety cord 6 that fixes the dog 7 from below allows the dog 7 to stand on the raised base in a natural posture that is easy for the dog to stand in, even with the safety cord 6 attached, so the dog 7 does not feel that it is fixed and does not get stressed.

Small-scale shops with limited space often only install deep washing tanks 1 that can wash large dogs, but since this system can be installed in existing washing tanks 1 , it can be introduced at low cost.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the raised base according to the present invention as viewed from above and on the side. This is a front view of the safety cord attached to the dog when the raised base is installed in the washing tank . FIG. 3 is a side view of FIG. 2 .

An embodiment is shown in FIG.
In FIG. 1, the pet washing tank separate type safety metal fitting attached raised base is sized to fit within an existing washing tank 1 .

The top plate 2 of the raised base installed in the existing washing tank 1 is set at a height that allows a worker to wash the back of a pet (dog 7 ) without bending his/her waist when the worker places the pet on the raised base.

A wooden slat or the like is placed on the top plate 2 of the raised base so that a pet (dog 7) does not slip while being washed on the top plate 2 .
