The invention will now be described for the purpose of illustration only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which; Fig. 1 is a diagrammatic perspective view of a pet bed according to the invention; Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic perspective view of a pet bed according to the invention viewed from its underside; Fig. 3 is a diagrammatic cross section through a heatable pad for a pet bed according to the invention; and Fig. 4 is a diagrammatic plan view of the layout of wires in a pet bed according to the invention.
Referring to Figs. 1 and 2, a pet bed 10 includes a base 12 and a semicylindrical roof 14. A space 16 for the pet is formed between the roof 14 and the base 12, and is bounded by a back wall (not shown). A front wall 18 includes an opening 20 to allow the pet access to the space 16.
The roof 14 is formed from laminated fibreglass, and is about Smm thick.
Referring to Fig. 3, the base 12 of the pet bed includes a wire 22 embedded in corrugated cardboard 24. The wire 22 comprises copper 26 wound around fibreglass strands 28. The wire is surrounded by an electrically insulating plastics material 30. The resistance of the wire is about 4 Ohms per metre.
The corrugated cardboard 24 is impregnated with a resin. On either side of the corrugated cardboard 24 is a layer 32 of fibreglass material. The fibreglass in this layer is relatively coarse cut, i.e. the strands are about 1Omm long. This fibreglass material is also impregnated with resin.
On an external side of each layer 32 of fibreglass material is a further layer 34 of fibreglass material. This layer 34 is relatively finely cut, i.e. the 6 strands are about 2mm long. This fibreglass material is also impregnated with resin.
On an external side of one of the layers 34 of fibreglass material is a layer 36 of resin, approximately Snim - 10min thick. This forms a smooth, water resistant, heat resistant surface 38. Fig. 3 shows a part of the base 12 oriented as it would be during its formation. When part of the pet bed 10, the base is oriented the opposite way up and the surface 38 forms the floor of the pet bed.
Fig. 4 shows diagrammatically the layout of the wires in the base 12 of the pet bed. The base comprises four elements 40, each including about 3m of wire 22. The wires in the respective elements are connected electrically in parallel so that if one wire ceases to function, the remaining elements continue to function unaffected. Referring to Fig. 1, the wires from each element are connected to the mains supply via a transformer 42.
The transformer 42 converts mains voltage into a 12V supply for the pet bed. A current thus flows in the wires 22, and these wires become hot. The resin and fibreglass of the base 12 of the pet bed become warm and heat is transmitted to the space 16 in which the pet is housed. The resistance of the wires 22 is calculated such that the base 12 reaches a temperature of between 35'cand40'c. A rheostat device maybe provided for adjusting the resistance and hence altering the maximum temperature reached.
The pet bed 10 is constructed as follows. A layer of resin is first formed on a mould, this resin solidifying to form the layer 36 and the surface 38 which subsequently forms the floor of the bed 10. A layer 34 of finely chopped fibreglass material is placed over the layer 36 and impregnated with resin. A layer 32 of coarse chopped fibreglass is then placed over the layer 34 and impregnated with resin.
The corrugated cardboard 24 containing the wire 22 is placed over the 7 layer 34 of finely chopped fibreglass material and impregnated with resin. A further layer 32 of coarse chopped fibreglass material is next placed upon the corrugated cardboard and impregnated with resin. Finally a layer 34 of finely chopped fibreglass material is laid over the layer 32 and impregnated with resin.
Shortly before use, a catalyst is added to the resin. This causes the resin to solidify and the result of the above process is a robust base 12 for the pet bed 10.
A colourant may also be added to the resin, if desired.
Referring to Fig. 2, the base 12 is filed dow-n until it is precisely the size to fit into the bottom of the roof 14. The base 12 is inserted into the roof, and a band of fibreglass material laid over the join between the base 12 and the roof 14, on the underside of the pet bed 10. The fibreglass material is impregnated with resin which solidifies, thereby joining the roof 14 to the base 12.
There is thus provided a pet bed which runs safely from a 12V supply, and in which all electrical elements are safely embedded in insulating materials. The roof of the bed ensures that heat given off by the elements is retained within the bed, to warm the animal.
Various modifications may be made to the above embodiment, without departing from the scope of the invention. Instead of being provided with a roof, the bed may comprise an open pad provided with a light located substantially above the pad. This embodiment is particularly suitable for use as a piglet pad.
The pad may be powered directly from the mains, provided that a suitable safety cut-off switch is provided.
The heating element may be formed separately from the part of the base which the animal sits on, and clipped into place under that part before use.
The part of the base that the animal sits on may be moulded together with the roof, to form a complete moulded enclosure.
Whilst endeavouring in the foregoing specification to draw attention to those features of the invention believed to be of particular importance it should be understood that the Applicant claims protection in respect of any patentable feature or combination of features hereinbefore referred to and/or shown in the drawings whether or not particular emphasis has been placed thereon.
