Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cat litter preparation, and specifically to a cat litter production and preparation device and method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Cat litter is an object used by the owner to bury the feces and urine of the cat he raises. It has good water absorption and is generally used together with a cat litter box (or cat toilet). Among them, cat litter can be mainly classified into bentonite cat litter, tofu cat litter, crystal cat litter (silica gel cat litter), paper shred cat litter, etc. Among them, the main component of silica gel cat litter is silica gel. After absorbing water, its color will change, which is easy to observe whether it needs to be replaced. It has the advantages of strong water absorption, no dust, and good deodorization effect. In the preparation process of silica gel cat litter, first, the raw materials (the main raw materials are sodium silicate and sulfuric acid) are subjected to a synthesis reaction treatment. Subsequently, the generated silica gel is subjected to an aging treatment to improve its stability and strength. The aged silica gel is subjected to a solidification treatment to form a stable granular structure. Subsequently, the solidified silica gel particles are washed with clean water or a specific cleaning agent. The purpose of washing is to remove impurities, unreacted raw materials, and possible by-products on the particle surface. The washed silica gel particles are subjected to a filtration treatment to remove suspended matter, fine particles, and moisture. The filtered silica gel particles are subjected to a drying treatment to remove the remaining moisture. After the treatment is completed, the silica gel is subjected to a screening treatment and then packaged and stored after passing quality inspection; in the actual preparation process, after the silica gel cat litter is washed, the silica gel cat litter is poured on a water-draining conveyor belt for water filtration. However, since the internal structure of silica gel cat litter particles is mostly a porous structure, these porous structures are prone to retaining water during the filtration process. As a result, there is still water residue on the surface of some silica gel cat litter after filtration. On the one hand, it affects the quality inspection effect of silica gel cat litter, and on the other hand, poor filtration effect will increase the energy consumption of the subsequent drying process. Therefore, we propose a cat litter production and preparation device and method thereof. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cat litter production and preparation device and method thereof to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A cat litter production and preparation device, including a drainage and conveying mechanism, on which a plurality of mounting brackets are installed. Between each mounting bracket, a first filter cylinder and a second filter cylinder are provided. The first filter cylinder and the second filter cylinder are fixed by a magnetic attraction part, and a limiting part is also provided between each mounting bracket. The limiting part includes end plates rotatably connected to the side walls of the mounting brackets. Between the end plates, a shielding plate is fixedly connected. A feed bin is also fixedly installed on the mounting bracket, and the discharge end of the feed bin is in communication with the inside of the first filter cylinder. And a meshing gear is fixedly installed near the end of the second filter cylinder. A frame is also fixedly installed on the drainage and conveying mechanism, and a meshing tooth row is fixedly installed on the inner wall of one side of the frame, and the meshing tooth row is located on the movement track of the meshing gear.

[0005] Further, the end plates correspond to the first filter cylinder and the second filter cylinder one by one. The first filter cylinder is rotatably connected to the corresponding end plate. Two annular grooves are provided on the end plate corresponding to the second filter cylinder, and the two annular grooves are connected by a vertical groove. A limiting slider is fixedly installed on the second filter cylinder, and the limiting slider is limited and slides in the vertical groove and the annular groove. During the fixing process of the first filter cylinder and the second filter cylinder by the magnetic attraction part, the limiting slider is located in one of the annular grooves.

[0006] Further, a magnetic plate frame is fixedly installed at one end of the second filter cylinder, and a strong magnetic group is fixedly installed on the inner wall of one side of the frame. The strong magnetic group is located on the movement track of the magnetic plate frame, and the magnetic poles of the strong magnetic group are opposite to the magnetic poles of the magnetic plate frame. A strip-shaped tooth row located on the movement track of the meshing gear is also fixedly installed on the inner wall of one side of the frame, and the strip-shaped tooth row is located below the magnetic plate frame.

[0007] Further, the inner walls of the first filter cylinder and the second filter cylinder are both inclined, and a plurality of constant force springs are also installed on the inner wall of the end plate corresponding to the second filter cylinder.

[0008] Further, an annular disc frame is fixedly installed on one of the end plates, and a plurality of force-bearing rod frames are fixedly installed on the annular disc frame. The plurality of force-bearing rod frames are evenly distributed at equal angles in a ring on the annular disc frame. A plurality of acting rod frames are fixedly installed on the inner wall of one side of the frame, and the force-bearing rod frames are located on the movement track of the acting rod frames.

[0009] Further, the inner wall of the shielding plate is also wrapped with a water-absorbing sponge, and a plurality of dredging shafts are installed on the shielding plate. The dredging shafts penetrate through the holes of the water-absorbing sponge and are used to dredge the filter holes on the first filter cylinder and the second filter cylinder. An N-pole magnetic disk is fixedly installed at the end of each dredging shaft.

[0010] Further, a moving plate frame slidably connected to the inner wall thereof is installed inside the baffle plate. A plurality of magnet groups corresponding to the N - pole disks one by one are arranged on the moving plate frame. One end of the moving plate frame is a magnetic end, and an electromagnetic component is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the baffle plate. When the electromagnetic component is electrified, a repulsive force is generated on the magnetic end of the moving plate frame. A return spring is connected between the other end of the moving plate frame and the inner wall of the baffle plate.

[0011] Further, the magnet group includes an N - pole magnetic block and an S - pole magnetic block fixedly installed on the moving plate frame, and the N - pole disk is located on the movement tracks of the N - pole magnetic block and the S - pole magnetic block.

[0012] Further, a plurality of arc - shaped plate frames are fixedly installed inside the second filter cartridge. The ends of the arc - shaped plate frames are located inside the first filter cartridge, and a drying mechanism is fixedly installed at one end of the water - draining conveying mechanism.

[0013] Further, a method for using a cat litter production and preparation device includes the following steps: S1: Select raw materials and add auxiliary materials such as colorants and deodorants according to requirements; S2: Synthesis reaction. Under appropriate temperature and stirring conditions, slowly add sodium silicate solution to sulfuric acid solution to react to form silica gel. After the reaction is completed, age the silica gel to improve its stability and strength; S3: Wash the aged silica gel particles with clean water or a specific cleaning agent to remove impurities, unreacted raw materials, and possible by - products on the particle surface; S4: Feed into the feed bin on the installation bracket. The silica cat litter falls along the feed bin into the first filter cartridge. When the water - draining conveying mechanism is started, the water - draining conveying mechanism drives the installation bracket to move. The meshing tooth row is located on the movement track of the meshing gear. Then, when the meshing gear moves to the meshing tooth row, it will receive a meshing force. The meshing gear drives the second filter cartridge to rotate. During the rotation of the second filter cartridge, it drives the first filter cartridge to rotate through the magnetic attraction part. The silica cat litter inside the first and second filter cartridges will separate water from the silica cat litter under the action of centrifugal force; S5: After the meshing gear on the second filter cartridge stops meshing with the meshing tooth row, the force rod frame on one of the end plates will then move to the position where the acting rod frame applies a force. The acting rod frame applies a force to the force rod frame, causing the end plate to rotate, controlling the energization of the electromagnetic assembly, and generating a repulsive force on the magnetic end of the moving plate frame. During the movement of the moving plate frame, the N-pole magnet and the S-pole magnet on the moving plate frame will move synchronously with the moving plate frame. The N-pole magnet first moves to the N-pole disk, that is, the N-pole magnet generates a repulsive force on the N-pole disk, so that the N-pole disk drives the dredging shaft body to dredge the filter holes on the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge. The S-pole magnet on the moving plate frame moves above the N-pole disk to generate an attractive force on the N-pole disk, causing the dredging shaft body to leave the filter holes on the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge; S6: When the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge move to the strong magnetic group, since the magnetic poles of the strong magnetic group are opposite to the magnetic poles of the magnetic plate frame, the strong magnetic group will generate an attractive force on the magnetic plate frame, causing the second filter cartridge to move directionally, so that the second filter cartridge is separated from the first filter cartridge. The silica gel cat litter in the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge will fall onto the water-draining conveying mechanism. During the separation process of the second filter cartridge and the first filter cartridge, the meshing gear on the second filter cartridge will contact the strip tooth row and receive the meshing force of the strip tooth row, causing the second filter cartridge to rotate. Since the second filter cartridge and the first filter cartridge are in a separated state, the first filter cartridge is stationary at this moment. During the rotation of the second filter cartridge, the arc plate frame on the second filter cartridge will act on the silica gel cat litter between the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge to prevent excessive dropping of the silica gel cat litter and avoid blockage;

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: The present invention uses the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge to filter water from the silica gel cat litter, fixes the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge through the magnetic attraction part, and under the meshing action of the meshing gear and the meshing tooth row, the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge remove the water on the silica gel cat litter by centrifugal force to improve the water removal efficiency. At the same time, since the internal structure of the silica gel cat litter particles is a porous structure, these porous structures are prone to retaining water during the filtration process. By the way of centrifugal water removal, compared with the prior art's water filtration operation, the water in the silica gel cat litter can be removed more thoroughly. Under the action of the strong magnetic group, the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge are separated, and the silica gel cat litter inside the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge falls onto the water-draining conveying mechanism. Therefore, under the structural design of the present invention, the water on the silica gel cat litter can be effectively removed, facilitating subsequent drying operations; The present invention utilizes a dredging shaft body to dredge the filter holes on the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge. By energizing the electromagnetic component, the moving plate frame performs a directional movement, so that the N-pole magnet block and the S-pole magnet block respectively generate repulsive and attractive forces on the N-pole disk, thereby controlling the dredging shaft body to dredge the filter holes on the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge, and avoiding the blockage of the filter holes on the first filter cartridge and the second filter cartridge.

[0017] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1-11 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a cat litter production and preparation device, including a water drainage and conveying mechanism 1, on which a plurality of mounting brackets 2 are fixedly installed. Between each mounting bracket 2, a first filter cylinder 3 and a second filter cylinder 4 are arranged. The first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 are fixed through a magnetic attraction part 5. Thus, the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 form a complete filter cylinder mechanism through the magnetic attraction part 5. And between each mounting bracket 2, a limiting part 6 is also arranged. The limiting part 6 includes an end plate 61 rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting bracket 2. A shielding plate 62 is fixedly connected between the end plates 61. An absorbent sponge 10 is wrapped on the inner wall of the shielding plate 62. Combining with Figure 4 and Figure 6 and Figure 9 and Figure 10 shown in the drawings, part of the areas of the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 are located within the shielding plate 62 and the absorbent sponge 10. Thus, when the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 rotate, the water in the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 will move towards the surface of the absorbent sponge 10 under the action of centrifugal force. It should be noted that, combining with Figure 3 and Figure 6 shown in the drawings, the shielding plate 62 is not in a complete ring shape. In the initial state, the shielding plate 62 does not block the lower part of the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4. Thus, when the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 rotate, the water inside the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 will flow out from the unblocked area of the shielding plate 62, that is, the splashing direction of the water is limited. A feed bin 21 is also fixedly installed on the mounting bracket 2, and the discharge end of the feed bin 21 is in communication with the inside of the first filter cylinder 3. And a meshing gear 41 is fixedly installed near the end of the second filter cylinder 4. A frame 7 is also fixedly installed on the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1, and a meshing tooth row 71 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of one side of the frame 7. The meshing tooth row 71 is located on the movement track of the meshing gear 41. And a drying mechanism 12 is fixedly installed at one end of the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1; Combining with Figures 1-3 shown in the drawings, after the silica gel cat litter is cleaned, the silica gel cat litter in the discharge bin of the cleaning equipment falls along its inner wall into the feed bin 21 of the mounting bracket 2 (the cleaning equipment is not shown in the figure, and the cleaning equipment is a component of the prior art, so the present invention does not describe it in detail). Since the discharge end of the feed bin 21 is in communication with the inside of the first filter cylinder 3, and combining with Figure 4As shown, the inner walls of the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 are both inclined. Thus, when the silica gel cat litter enters the feed bin 21, it will fall into the first filter cartridge 3 and enter the interior of the first filter cartridge 3 along the inclined inner wall of the first filter cartridge 3. The end plates 61 correspond to the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 one by one, and the first filter cartridge 3 is rotatably connected to the corresponding end plate 61. There are two annular grooves 63 provided on the end plate 61 corresponding to the second filter cartridge 4, and the two annular grooves 63 are connected through a vertical groove 64. A limit slider 8 is fixedly installed on the second filter cartridge 4, and the limit slider 8 is limited to slide in the vertical groove 64 and the annular groove 63. During the fixation of the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 by the magnetic attraction part 5, the limit slider 8 is located in one of the annular grooves 63. A magnetic plate frame 9 is fixedly installed at one end of the second filter cartridge 4, and a strong magnetic group 72 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of one side of the frame 7. The strong magnetic group 72 is located on the movement track of the magnetic plate frame 9, and the magnetic poles of the strong magnetic group 72 are opposite to the magnetic poles of the magnetic plate frame 9. A strip-shaped tooth row 73 located on the movement track of the meshing gear 41 is also fixedly installed on the inner wall of one side of the frame 7, and the strip-shaped tooth row 73 is located below the magnetic plate frame 9. A plurality of constant force springs 65 are also installed on the inner wall of the end plate 61 corresponding to the second filter cartridge 4, and the constant force springs 65 are in contact with the side wall of the second filter cartridge 4. A plurality of arc-shaped plate frames 11 are fixedly installed inside the second filter cartridge 4, and the ends of the arc-shaped plate frames 11 are located inside the first filter cartridge 3; Specifically, during the actual operation, the feed bin 21 on the mounting bracket 2 is fed, that is, the silica gel cat litter falls along the feed bin 21 into the interior of the first filter cartridge 3. When too much silica gel cat litter falls, part of the silica gel cat litter will enter the second filter cartridge 4. When the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1 is started, the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1 drives the mounting bracket 2 to move. During the movement of the mounting bracket 2, since the mounting bracket 2 is rotatably connected to the end plate 61, as shown in the appendix Figure 7As shown, both the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 are located within the end plate 61, and the limiting sliders 8 on the outer walls of the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 are located within the annular groove 63. Thus, when the draining and conveying mechanism 1 controls the mounting bracket 2 to move directionally, the mounting bracket 2 will move synchronously with it, that is, relevant components such as the end plate 61, the first filter cartridge 3, and the second filter cartridge 4 will all move synchronously with it. Among them, the meshing tooth row 71 is located on the movement trajectory of the meshing gear 41. Thus, when the meshing gear 41 moves to the meshing tooth row 71, it will be subjected to a meshing force, which causes the meshing gear 41 to drive the second filter cartridge 4 to rotate. Continuing from the above, the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 are fixed by the magnetic attraction part 5. Thus, during the rotation of the second filter cartridge 4, it drives the first filter cartridge 3 to rotate through the magnetic attraction part 5. The limiting sliders 8 on the outer walls of the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 will move directionally along the trajectory of the annular groove 63. Thus, during the rotation of the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4, the end plate 61 remains stationary, and the silica gel cat litter inside the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 will separate the moisture from the silica gel cat litter under the action of centrifugal force to improve the water removal efficiency. At the same time, since the internal structure of the silica gel cat litter particles is a porous structure, these porous structures are prone to retaining moisture during the filtration process. By the method of removing moisture through centrifugation, compared with the prior art filtration moisture operation, the moisture in the silica gel cat litter can be removed more thoroughly to ensure the dryness of the cat litter. It should be noted that in order to ensure that the silica gel cat litter can separate the moisture from the silica gel cat litter under the action of centrifugal force, in actual use, if the centrifugal force generated by the rotation speed of the meshing gear 41 is not sufficient to separate the moisture in the silica gel cat litter, the meshing gear 41 can be replaced with a gear set according to the actual situation, that is, a large-sized gear meshes with a small-sized gear. The large-sized gear meshes with the meshing tooth row 71 and the strip tooth row 73 during movement, and the small-sized gear is connected to the second filter cartridge 4, so that the rotation speeds of the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 can be relatively fast. It should be noted that the gear set with a changed transmission ratio is a component of the prior art, and thus the present invention does not describe it in too much detail; thus, when the meshing gear 41 on the second filter cartridge 4 moves to the meshing tooth row 71, the meshing tooth row 71 acts on the meshing gear 41 to cause the second filter cartridge 4 to drive the first filter cartridge 3 to rotate through the magnetic attraction part 5 to achieve the purpose of removing the moisture in the silica gel cat litter. Combining with Attached Figure 4 、Attached Figure 5 、Attached Figure 7 and Attached Figure 8As shown, when the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 are fixed by the magnetic attraction part 5, the limit slider 8 on the second filter cartridge 4 is located in one of the annular groove bodies 63 at this time. This annular groove body 63 is the annular groove body 63 close to the inner wall of the end plate 61. When the magnetic plate frame 9 on the second filter cartridge 4 moves to the strong magnetic group 72, the strong magnetic group 72 generates an attractive force on the magnetic plate frame 9, so that the limit slider 8 on the second filter cartridge 4 moves from one annular groove body 63 to another annular groove body 63 under the action of the vertical groove body 64, and the limit slider 8 finally enters another annular groove body 63. During this process, the second filter cartridge 4 compresses the constant force spring 65. After the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 are separated, a channel will be left, so that the silica gel cat litter in the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 will fall onto the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1 through this channel. And at this time, the strip tooth row 73 is located on the movement track of the meshing gear 41. Then when the meshing gear 41 meshes with the strip tooth row 73, the meshing gear 41 drives the second filter cartridge 4 to rotate. Since the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 are in a separated state, the first filter cartridge 3 is in a static state and the second filter cartridge 4 rotates. Then the limit slider 8 on the second filter cartridge 4 rotates in another annular groove body 63, and the arc plate frame 11 on the second filter cartridge 4 acts on the silica gel cat litter between the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 to prevent the silica gel cat litter from being blocked due to excessive dropping when it falls onto the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1. The arc plate frame 11 acts on the silica gel cat litter at the intersection of the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 to facilitate the outflow of the silica gel cat litter; During the process of discharging water from the silica gel cat litter, sometimes part of the silica gel cat litter will block the filter holes on the first filter cartridge 3 or the second filter cartridge 4. In order to avoid affecting the outflow of water, the present invention also fixedly installs an annular disc frame 66 on one of the end plates 61, and a plurality of force-bearing rod frames 67 are fixedly installed on the annular disc frame 66. The plurality of force-bearing rod frames 67 are annularly and equally angularly distributed on the annular disc frame 66. A plurality of acting rod frames 74 are fixedly installed on one inner wall of the frame 7, and the force-bearing rod frames 67 are located on the movement track of the acting rod frames 74, that is, combined with the attached Figure 8 As shown, the acting rod frame 74 is located between the meshing tooth row 71 and the strong magnetic group 72. Then when the silica gel cat litter inside the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4 separates water from the silica gel cat litter under the action of centrifugal force, at this time, the force-bearing rod frame 67 on one of the end plates 61 will pass through a plurality of acting rod frames 74. The acting rod frame 74 exerts a force on the force-bearing rod frame 67, so that the annular disc frame 66 drives the end plate 61 to rotate. A plurality of dredging shafts 621 are also installed on the baffle 62. The dredging shafts 621 penetrate through the holes of the water absorption sponge 10 and are used for dredging the filter holes on the first filter cartridge 3 and the second filter cartridge 4. Combined with the attached Figure 7 and Figure 9As shown, the holes in the water-absorbing sponge 10 are mainly used to limit the movement of the dredging shaft body 621, ensuring that the dredging shaft body 621 can move outwards from within the water-absorbing sponge 10. Since the method of opening holes in the water-absorbing sponge 10 is a prior art, the present invention does not describe it in detail. A N-pole disk 622 is fixedly installed at each end of the dredging shaft body 621. A moving plate frame 623 slidably connected to its inner wall is also installed inside the shielding plate 62. A plurality of magnet groups 68 corresponding to the N-pole disks 622 one by one are arranged on the moving plate frame 623. One end of the moving plate frame 623 is a magnetic end, and an electromagnetic component 69 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the shielding plate 62. When the electromagnetic component 69 is energized, a repulsive force is generated on the magnetic end of the moving plate frame 623. A return spring 60 is connected between the other end of the moving plate frame 623 and the inner wall of the shielding plate 62. As a further limitation in the present invention, the magnet group 68 includes a N-pole magnetic block 681 and a S-pole magnetic block 682 fixedly installed on the moving plate frame 623. It should be noted that, in combination with Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the N-pole magnetic block 681 and the S-pole magnetic block 682 approach each other, and the N-pole magnetic block 681 moves to above the N-pole disk 622 prior to the S-pole magnetic block 682. A plate frame made of a magnetic field shielding material is installed between the N-pole magnetic block 681 and the S-pole magnetic block 682 for isolation, and the N-pole disk 622 is located on the movement trajectories of the N-pole magnetic block 681 and the S-pole magnetic block 682; Specifically, after the meshing gear 41 on the filter cartridge two 4 is disengaged from the meshing tooth row 71, then the force rod holder 67 on one of the end plates 61 will move to the position where the acting rod holder 74 exerts a force, that is, the acting rod holder 74 exerts a force on the force rod holder 67 to cause the end plate 61 to rotate. At this time, since the limit sliders 8 on the outer walls of the filter cartridge one 3 and the filter cartridge two 4 are located in the annular groove body 63, when the end plate 61 rotates, the filter cartridge one 3 and the filter cartridge two 4 are in a stationary state. After the end plate 61 finishes rotating, that is, the end plate 61 is adjusted by a certain angle, the dredging shaft body 621 dredges the filter holes in other areas of the filter cartridge one 3 and the filter cartridge two 4. Control the electromagnetic assembly 69 to be energized to generate a repulsive force on the magnetic end of the moving plate holder 623. During the movement of the moving plate holder 623, its end presses the return spring 60. And during this process, the N-pole magnet 681 and the S-pole magnet 682 on the moving plate holder 623 will move synchronously with the moving plate holder 623. The N-pole magnet 681 first moves to the N-pole disk 622, that is, the N-pole magnet 681 generates a repulsive force on the N-pole disk 622, so that the N-pole disk 622 drives the dredging shaft body 621 to dredge the filter holes on the filter cartridge one 3 and the filter cartridge two 4 to prevent the filter holes on the filter cartridge one 3 and the filter cartridge two 4 from being blocked. Subsequently, the S-pole magnet 682 on the moving plate holder 623 moves above the N-pole disk 622 to generate an attractive force on the N-pole disk 622, so that the N-pole disk 622 drives the dredging shaft body 621 to move upward, that is, to leave the filter holes on the filter cartridge one 3 and the filter cartridge two 4, so as to achieve the dredging work of the filter holes on the filter cartridge one 3 and the filter cartridge two 4. It should be noted that after each rotation and angle adjustment of the end plate 61 is completed, the electromagnetic assembly 69 will be energized and then powered off. It should be noted that the energization and power-off of the electromagnetic assembly 69 can be designed through corresponding programs, so that the electromagnetic assembly 69 is powered off within a certain period of time after each energization is completed, so that the moving plate holder 623 is reset under the action of the return spring 60, thereby realizing the dredging work of the filter cartridge one 3 and the filter cartridge two 4. Further explanation, the feed bin 21 on the mounting bracket 2 will pass through the drying mechanism 12 before each feeding. Through the drying mechanism 12, the filter cartridge one 3, the filter cartridge two 4, the water-absorbing sponge 10 and the baffle 62 can be effectively dried to improve the moisture filtration effect of the silica cat litter.

[0019] A method for using a cat litter production and preparation device specifically includes the following steps: S1: Select raw materials and add auxiliary materials such as colorants and deodorants according to requirements; S2: Synthesis reaction. Under appropriate temperature and stirring conditions, slowly add the sodium silicate solution to the sulfuric acid solution to react to form silica gel. After the reaction is completed, age the silica gel to improve its stability and strength; S3: Clean the aged silica gel particles with clean water or a specific cleaning agent to remove impurities, unreacted raw materials, and possible by-products on the particle surface; S4: Feed through the feed bin 21 on the mounting bracket 2, and the silica gel cat litter drops along the feed bin 21 into the interior of the first filter cylinder 3. When the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1 is started, the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1 drives the mounting bracket 2 to move. The meshing tooth row 71 is located on the movement track of the meshing gear 41. Thus, when the meshing gear 41 moves to the meshing tooth row 71, it will receive a meshing force, and the meshing gear 41 drives the second filter cylinder 4 to rotate. During the rotation of the second filter cylinder 4, it drives the first filter cylinder 3 to rotate through the magnetic attraction part 5. The silica gel cat litter inside the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 will separate water from the silica gel cat litter under the action of centrifugal force; S5: After the meshing gear 41 on the second filter cylinder 4 is no longer meshed with the meshing tooth row 71, then the force rod bracket 67 on one of the end plates 61 will move to the position where the acting rod bracket 74 applies a force. The acting rod bracket 74 applies a force to the force rod bracket 67 to make the end plate 61 rotate, controls the electromagnetic component 69 to be energized, so as to generate a repulsive force on the magnetic end of the moving plate bracket 623. During the movement of the moving plate bracket 623, the N - pole magnet 681 and the S - pole magnet 682 on the moving plate bracket 623 will move synchronously with the moving plate bracket 623. The N - pole magnet 681 first moves to the N - pole disk 622, that is, the N - pole magnet 681 generates a repulsive force on the N - pole disk 622, so that the N - pole disk 622 drives the dredging shaft body 621 to dredge the filter holes on the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4. The S - pole magnet 682 on the moving plate bracket 623 moves above the N - pole disk 622 to generate an attractive force on the N - pole disk 622, so that the dredging shaft body 621 leaves from the filter holes on the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4; S6: When the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 move to the strong magnetic group 72, since the magnetic poles of the strong magnetic group 72 are opposite to the magnetic poles of the magnetic plate frame 9, the strong magnetic group 72 will generate an attractive force on the magnetic plate frame 9, making the second filter cylinder 4 move in a specific direction, so that the second filter cylinder 4 is separated from the first filter cylinder 3. The silica gel cat litter in the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 will drop onto the water drainage and conveying mechanism 1. During the separation process of the second filter cylinder 4 and the first filter cylinder 3, the meshing gear 41 on the second filter cylinder 4 will contact the strip - shaped tooth row 73 and receive the meshing force of the strip - shaped tooth row 73, so that the second filter cylinder 4 rotates. Since the second filter cylinder 4 and the first filter cylinder 3 are in a separated state, the first filter cylinder 3 is stationary at this moment. During the rotation of the second filter cylinder 4, the arc - shaped plate frame 11 on the second filter cylinder 4 will act on the silica gel cat litter between the first filter cylinder 3 and the second filter cylinder 4 to prevent excessive dropping of the silica gel cat litter and avoid blockage;
