Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent production, and particularly relates to a cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent and a mixing and stirring device for its production and processing. Background Art

[0002] Cat litter is an absorbent material after a cat excretes. Its main functions are to absorb urine and feces, reduce odors at the same time, and facilitate cleaning. Currently, manufacturers mostly add cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agents to cat litter to inhibit the odors and bacterial growth in the cat litter. Common cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agents are prepared by a mixing and stirring device from solid raw materials and liquid raw materials. Currently, a double - helix conical mixer is a relatively common mixing and stirring device for the production and processing of cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agents.

[0003] Since solid raw materials usually contain multiple components, before the solid - liquid mixing preparation, production personnel need to put different types of solid raw materials into the double - helix conical mixer for sufficient stirring and mixing, and then mix the liquid raw materials with the well - mixed solid raw materials together. During the solid - liquid mixing process, it is difficult for the liquid raw materials to break through the upper - layer and lower - layer solid raw materials for mixing. This will cause obvious differences in the humidity of the upper - layer and lower - layer solid raw materials, easily forming local viscous lumps, which not only hinder the subsequent uniform diffusion, but also cause the solid raw materials with too high humidity to sink to the bottom. It is difficult for the auger in the double - helix conical mixer to quickly mix the upper - layer and lower - layer solid raw materials together, resulting in a low mixing rate of the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Based on this, in view of the problem that the mixing and stirring device for the production and processing of cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent has low solid - liquid mixing efficiency, resulting in low intelligent production efficiency, it is necessary to provide a cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent and a mixing and stirring device for its production and processing.

[0005] A mixing and stirring device for the production and processing of a cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent includes a stirring barrel, a constant - temperature jacket, a transmission system, and two spiral shafts. A flow - equalizing mechanism is installed at the top of the stirring barrel.

[0006] Further, a rectangular cavity and a liquid inlet cavity are opened at the top of the spiral shaft. A liquid guiding cavity communicating with the liquid inlet cavity is opened inside the spiral shaft. A processing cavity communicating with both the liquid guiding cavity and the liquid inlet cavity is opened inside the spiral shaft. A positioning cavity communicating with the processing cavity is opened inside the spiral shaft. A liquid discharge cavity communicating with the processing cavity is opened on the surface of the spiral shaft.

[0007] Further, the flow equalizing mechanism includes an infusion pump. The liquid outlet end of the infusion pump is fixedly connected and communicated with a swirling transfer assembly rotatably connected to the spiral shaft. Inside the swirling transfer assembly, there are two reciprocating lifting assemblies fixedly connected and respectively slidably connected to the two rectangular cavities. The bottom of the reciprocating lifting assembly is fixedly connected with a plug rod arranged inside the spiral shaft. The surface of the plug rod is fixedly connected with a push cylinder slidably connected to the treatment cavity. The surface of the plug rod is fixedly connected with a positioning cylinder slidably connected to the positioning cavity. A blocking assembly is slidably connected to the surface of the plug rod between the push cylinder and the positioning cylinder. The liquid guiding cavity and the liquid discharging cavity are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the blocking assembly. The diameter of the blocking assembly is larger than the inner diameter of the positioning cavity.

[0008] Further, the blocking assembly includes a blocking ring gasket sleeved on the surface of the plug rod. The outer sides of the blocking ring gasket and the horizontal cross-section shape of the treatment cavity are both circular and match each other. The upper surface of the blocking ring gasket is fixedly connected with an annular ring-shaped blocking ring. The surface of the annular ring-shaped blocking ring is provided with atomizing channels distributed in an annular shape.

[0009] Further, the swirling transfer assembly includes an annular liquid storage box fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the stirring barrel. The top of the annular liquid storage box is fixedly connected and communicated with a liquid guiding pipe fixedly connected and communicated with the infusion pump. The bottom of the annular liquid storage box is rotatably connected with an annular sealing plate. The top of the spiral shaft penetrates through the annular sealing plate and extends into the interior of the annular liquid storage box. Sealing rings in contact with the annular sealing plate are embedded and installed on the surface of the spiral shaft and the inner side of the annular liquid storage box.

[0010] Further, the reciprocating lifting assembly includes a round box fixedly connected to the top of the annular sealing plate. An annular lifting groove is opened inside the round box. A sliding column is slidably connected inside the annular lifting groove. One end of the sliding column is fixedly connected with a rectangular rod inserted into the rectangular cavity. The bottom of the rectangular rod is fixedly connected with the plug rod.

[0011] Further, annularly distributed liquid guiding sheets are fixedly connected between the blocking ring gasket and the annular ring-shaped blocking ring. The liquid guiding sheets are obliquely arranged on the upper surface of the blocking ring gasket.

[0012] Further, the local vertical cross-section shape of the upper surface of the blocking ring gasket is a parallelogram, and the diameter of the blocking ring gasket gradually decreases from bottom to top.

[0013] Further, the number of the liquid guiding cavities, the treatment cavities, the positioning cavities, the push cylinders, the positioning cylinders and the blocking assemblies is the same and not less than ten. The number ratio of the liquid discharging cavity to the liquid guiding cavity is 1:6. The liquid guiding cavities at the same height are distributed in a fan shape around the axis of the treatment cavity.

[0014] Furthermore, evenly distributed blocking filter meshes are embedded and installed on the surface of the spiral shaft, and the opening of the liquid discharge cavity is arranged inside the blocking filter meshes.

[0015] Furthermore, the blocking filter meshes are components made of stainless steel material, and the shape of the blocking filter meshes is fan-shaped.

[0016] A cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent, and the ratio and mixing process of the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent are as follows:

[0017] I. Ratio:

[0018] Porous diatomite, with an addition ratio of 55%;

[0019] Modified montmorillonite, with an addition ratio of 25%;

[0020] Nano-titanium dioxide, with an addition ratio of 5%;

[0021] Lactic acid bacteria fermentation lysate, with an addition ratio of 10%

[0022] Cold-pressed coconut oil derivative, with an addition ratio of 5%;

[0023] II. Mixing process

[0024] The first stage: Heat up to between 60 - 65 °C, and stir and mix the solid raw materials composed of porous diatomite + modified montmorillonite + nano-titanium dioxide according to the above ratio.

[0025] The second stage: Cool down to between 33 - 37 °C, and stir and mix the liquid raw materials composed of lactic acid bacteria lysate + coconut oil derivative with the solid raw materials according to the above ratio to make the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent.

[0026] The above cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent and the mixing and stirring device for its production and processing,

[0027] The flow equalizing mechanism and the spiral shaft can evenly distribute the liquid raw materials to the solid raw materials at different positions, reduce the humidity difference of the liquid raw materials at different positions, make the solid-liquid mixing more uniform, not only can avoid the situation of local viscous caking, make the material mixing more uniform, but also can shorten the material stirring and mixing time, so as to solve the problem of low solid-liquid mixing efficiency in the mixing and stirring device for the production and processing of cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent, resulting in low intelligent production efficiency;

[0028] Adopting the dynamic current sharing method can continuously moisten the spiral shaft blades and the wet lubricating raw materials adhered to their surfaces. This can not only moisten the viscosity of the solid raw materials on the spiral shaft blades, enabling the spiral shaft to perform the stirring and mixing operation more easily, thereby reducing the power consumption of the spiral shaft operation. At the same time, it can also absorb and disperse the heat generated by the spiral shaft blades due to stirring and friction of the solid raw materials, ensuring that the solid and liquid raw materials can be mixed and stirred within the specified temperature range, avoiding the inactivation or destruction of the stability of the lactic acid bacteria fermentation lysate during the stirring and mixing process due to the temperature being higher than 40°C, making the processing of this cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent more scientific and intelligent;

[0029] The blocking component can not only control the single discharge amount of the liquid raw material. When the liquid raw material passes through the blocking component, the blocking component actively rotates and divides the liquid raw material under the impact of the liquid raw material. On the one hand, this can refine and disperse the oily substances in the cold-pressed coconut oil derivatives, avoiding the solidification of some oily substances in the coconut oil derivatives when the temperature drops below 25°C, enabling the oily substances to be more fully incorporated into the liquid raw material. On the other hand, it can make the components in the liquid raw material mix more evenly, reducing the occurrence of stratification and precipitation of the liquid raw material, not only reducing the probability of blockage inside the spiral shaft, but also improving the quality of the subsequent cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent finished product.

The term "and / or" used in the description of the present invention includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0047] The following will be combined with Figure 1 - Figure 9 describe the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent of the present invention and its mixing and stirring device for production and processing.

[0048] In one embodiment, a mixing and stirring device for the production and processing of a cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent includes a stirring barrel 100, a constant temperature jacket 200, a transmission system 300, and two spiral shafts 400. A flow equalizing mechanism 500 is installed at the top of the stirring barrel 100;

[0049] The stirring tank 100 includes a conical cylinder body. A plate valve is embedded and installed at the bottom of the conical cylinder body. The top of the conical cylinder body is threadedly connected with a top cover. A feeding port is opened at the top of the top cover. The transmission system 300 includes a mounting frame fixedly connected to the top of the top cover. The surface of the mounting frame is fixedly connected with a first reduction motor. The end of the output shaft of the first reduction motor is fixedly connected with a worm. The surface of the worm is meshed with a worm gear rotatably connected to the mounting frame. The inner side of the worm gear is fixedly connected with a rotating frame rotatably connected to the spiral shaft 400. The bottom of the rotating frame penetrates into the inside of the conical cylinder body. The top of the mounting frame is fixedly connected with a second reduction motor. The end of the output shaft of the second reduction motor penetrates into the inside of the rotating frame. The end of the output shaft of the second reduction motor is fixedly connected with a driving bevel gear. The surface of the driving bevel gear is meshed with two opposite driven bevel gears. One end of the driven bevel gear is fixedly connected with a transmission shaft. One end of the transmission shaft is fixedly connected with a second driven bevel gear. The surface of the second driven bevel gear is meshed with a third driven bevel gear fixedly connected with the spiral shaft 400;

[0050] When the equipment is running normally, the second reduction motor drives the driving bevel gear to rotate. The driving bevel gear simultaneously drives the two driven bevel gears. The driven bevel gear rotates the second driven bevel gear through the transmission shaft. The second driven bevel gear drives the spiral shaft 400 to rotate and stir the materials inside the conical cylinder body. At the same time, the first reduction motor rotates the worm, the worm rotates the worm gear, the worm gear drives the rotating frame to rotate, and the rotating frame drives the spiral shaft 400 to make a circular motion around the axis of the conical cylinder body. During the mixing process of the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent, the staff only needs to perform the operation of adding raw materials. The temperature adjustment, stirring and mixing, and liquid antibacterial raw materials are respectively completed by the constant temperature jacket 200, the transmission system 300, and the flow equalizing mechanism 500. This can significantly reduce the manual input in the production process of the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent, and thus improve the intelligent production efficiency of the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent.

[0051] The constant temperature jacket 200 includes a conical asbestos sheath, a chiller and a temperature controller. A spiral heat conduction tube is embedded and installed inside the conical asbestos sheath. The liquid inlet end and the liquid outlet end of the spiral heat conduction tube are respectively fixedly connected and communicated with the liquid outlet end and the liquid inlet end of the chiller. The temperature controller is fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the top cover. After the staff adjusts the preset temperature of the temperature controller, the temperature controller first detects the temperature inside the conical cylinder in real time, and then compares the detected temperature with the preset temperature. If the difference between the detected temperature and the preset temperature exceeds the preset upper limit, it indicates that the temperature inside the conical cylinder is too high or too low. At the same time, the temperature controller controls the chiller according to the instructions preset in it to adjust the medium pre-placed inside it to the specified temperature, and then transports the temperature-adjusted medium into the heat conduction tube. The medium transfers heat to the materials inside the conical cylinder through the heat conduction tube, the conical asbestos sheath and the conical cylinder until the temperature of the materials inside the conical cylinder is regulated to the preset temperature. This can ensure that the materials in different stages can be stirred and mixed at a scientific temperature, thereby improving the intelligence of the production of the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent;

[0052] A rectangular cavity 410 and a liquid inlet cavity 420 are formed at the top of the spiral shaft 400. A liquid guide cavity 430 communicating with the liquid inlet cavity 420 is formed inside the spiral shaft 400. A processing cavity 440 communicating with both the liquid guide cavity 430 and the liquid inlet cavity 420 is formed inside the spiral shaft 400. A positioning cavity 450 communicating with the processing cavity 440 is formed inside the spiral shaft 400. A liquid discharge cavity 460 communicating with the processing cavity 440 is formed on the surface of the spiral shaft 400.

[0053] Such as Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the flow equalizing mechanism 500 includes an infusion pump 510. The liquid outlet end of the infusion pump 510 is fixedly connected and communicated with a swirling transfer component 520 rotatably connected to the spiral shaft 400. Inside the swirling transfer component 520, there are two reciprocating lifting components 530 fixedly connected and respectively slidably connected to the two rectangular cavities 410. The bottom of the reciprocating lifting component 530 is fixedly connected with a plug rod 540 arranged inside the spiral shaft 400. The surface of the plug rod 540 is fixedly connected with a push cylinder 550 slidably connected to the treatment cavity 440. The surface of the plug rod 540 is fixedly connected with a positioning cylinder 560 slidably connected to the positioning cavity 450. A blocking component 570 is slidably connected to the surface of the plug rod 540 and is arranged between the push cylinder 550 and the positioning cylinder 560. The liquid guiding cavity 430 and the liquid discharging cavity 460 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the blocking component 570. The diameter of the blocking component 570 is larger than the inner diameter of the positioning cavity 450; the number of the liquid guiding cavity 430, the treatment cavity 440, the positioning cavity 450, the push cylinder 550, the positioning cylinder 560 and the blocking component 570 is the same and not less than ten. The ratio of the number of the liquid discharging cavity 460 to the liquid guiding cavity 430 is one to six. The liquid guiding cavities 430 at the same height are distributed in a fan shape around the axis of the treatment cavity 440, which can expand the range of uniform liquid distribution and further improve the solid-liquid mixing rate; a uniformly distributed blocking filter net 580 is embedded on the surface of the spiral shaft 400. The opening of the liquid discharging cavity 460 is arranged inside the blocking filter net 580, which can block the solid raw materials from entering the liquid discharging cavity 460. The blocking filter net 580 is made of stainless steel material, and the shape of the blocking filter net 580 is fan-shaped to reduce the probability of the liquid discharging cavity 460 being blocked.

[0054] As Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown, the swirling transfer component 520 includes an annular liquid storage box 521 fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the stirring barrel 100. The top of the annular liquid storage box 521 is fixedly connected and communicated with a liquid guiding pipe 522 fixedly connected and communicated with the infusion pump 510. The bottom of the annular liquid storage box 521 is rotatably connected with an annular sealing plate 523. The top of the spiral shaft 400 penetrates through the annular sealing plate 523 and extends into the interior of the annular liquid storage box 521. Sealing rings 524 in contact with the annular sealing plate 523 are embedded on the surface of the spiral shaft 400 and the inner side of the annular liquid storage box 521;

[0055] When the staff needs to add liquid raw materials, first connect the container filled with liquid raw materials to the liquid inlet end of the infusion pump 510, and then manually turn on the infusion pump 510. The infusion pump 510 transports the liquid raw materials into the annular liquid storage box 521 through the liquid guide pipe 522. The annular liquid storage box 521 guides the liquid raw materials into the liquid inlet cavity 420. During the process of the rotating frame driving the spiral shaft 400 to rotate, the spiral shaft 400 drives the annular sealing plate 523 to rotate along the annular liquid storage box 521, which can ensure that the liquid raw materials can be stably transported into the liquid inlet cavity 420 through the annular liquid storage box 521. This does not require the staff to actively control the addition amount and rate of the liquid raw materials, making the mixing and stirring operation of the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent more intelligent.

[0056] As Figure 5 and Figure 8 shown, the reciprocating lifting component 530 includes a round box 531 fixedly connected to the top of the annular sealing plate 523. An annular lifting groove 532 is opened inside the round box 531. A sliding column 533 is slidably connected inside the annular lifting groove 532. One end of the sliding column 533 is fixedly connected to a rectangular rod 534 inserted into the rectangular cavity 410. The bottom of the rectangular rod 534 is fixedly connected to an insertion rod 540;

[0057] During the rotation of the spiral shaft 400, the rectangular rod 534 is driven to rotate synchronously through the rectangular cavity 410. The rectangular rod 534 drives the sliding column 533 to slide inside the annular lifting groove 532. The annular lifting groove 532 drives the sliding column 533 to reciprocate up and down. The sliding column 533 drives the rectangular rod 534 to reciprocate up and down. The rectangular rod 534 drives the insertion rod 540 to reciprocate up and down to ensure that the liquid can be quantitatively transported.

[0058] As Figure 6 and Figure 9 shown, the blocking component 570 includes a blocking ring gasket 571 sleeved on the surface of the insertion rod 540. The outer sides of the blocking ring gasket 571 and the horizontal cross-section shape of the treatment cavity 440 are both circular and match each other. A ring-shaped blocking ring 572 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the blocking ring gasket 571. An atomization channel 573 distributed in a ring shape is opened on the surface of the ring-shaped blocking ring 572; A liquid guide piece 574 distributed in a ring shape is fixedly connected between the blocking ring gasket 571 and the ring-shaped blocking ring 572. The liquid guide piece 574 is inclined on the upper surface of the blocking ring gasket 571; The local vertical cross-section shape of the upper surface of the blocking ring gasket 571 is a parallelogram, and the diameter of the blocking ring gasket 571 gradually decreases from bottom to top, which can reduce the blockage of the discharge of the liquid raw materials to ensure the flow rate of the liquid raw materials ejected outward;

[0059] The blocking component 570 not only has the function of quantitatively blocking the liquid raw material, but also before the liquid raw material is squeezed and transported into the liquid discharge cavity 460, the atomization channel 573 can divide the oily substances in the cold-pressed coconut oil derivative, which can make the oily substances more fully incorporated into the liquid raw material. At the same time, when the liquid raw material passes through the liquid guide piece 574, it can also drive the liquid guide piece 574 to rotate, so that the liquid guide piece 574 rotates and stirs the liquid raw material, which can make the components in the liquid raw material mix more evenly, so as to reduce the stratification or precipitation of the liquid raw material.

[0060] As Figures 1 - 9 shown, a cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent, the ratio and mixing process of the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent are as follows:

[0061] I. Ratio:

[0062] Porous diatomite, with an addition ratio of 55%. The water absorption of diatomite can reach 400% of its own weight, which can quickly absorb urine and expand into lumps, keeping the cat litter dry. And because diatomite contains components such as silicon oxide, it has natural antibacterial ability;

[0063] Modified montmorillonite, with an addition ratio of 25%. Through the upgraded nanostructure, modified montmorillonite can quickly adsorb odor components such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in urine, reduce the spread of odors, and achieve the physical deodorization effect. And modified montmorillonite can effectively adsorb and degrade the mycotoxins in the cat litter, inhibit the reproduction of fungi, and reduce the risk of pets contacting harmful microorganisms;

[0064] Nano-titanium dioxide, with an addition ratio of 5%. As a photocatalyst, titanium dioxide can activate the photocatalytic reaction under the action of ultraviolet or visible light, quickly degrade odor molecules such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in the cat litter, achieve "fragrance-free" physical deodorization, and avoid the problem of only covering up the odor with fragrance;

[0065] The lysate of lactic acid bacteria fermentation, with an addition ratio of 10%. The lysate of lactic acid bacteria fermentation decomposes the sulfur- and nitrogen-containing compounds (such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide) in urine and feces in the cat litter through metabolic action, reducing the generation of odors from the source. And the fermentation product of lactic acid bacteria does not contain chemical preservatives or strong antibacterial agents, and is non-irritating to the skin and respiratory tract of cats. Since the lysing process of the lysate of lactic acid bacteria fermentation needs to be carried out at 33-40°C, this can not only promote the decomposition of the cell wall, but also avoid product denaturation caused by high temperature. Therefore, during the mixing process of the solid and liquid raw materials, it is also necessary to ensure that the temperature inside the stirring barrel 100 is between 33-37°C. Even if the friction between the spiral shaft 400 and the solid raw material causes local heating, this can control the temperature inside the stirring barrel 100 below 40°C during the solid-liquid mixing process;

[0066] Cold-pressed coconut oil derivative, with an addition ratio of 5%. The cold-pressed coconut oil derivative contains components such as lauric acid and caprylic acid, which can inhibit the reproduction of microorganisms such as Escherichia coli and fungi, reduce the risk of bacterial contamination in the litter box, and the fatty acid components form a protective film on the surface of the litter, reducing dust flying. At the same time, it reduces the problems of dryness and chapping of the cat's paw pads. Since cold-pressed coconut oil solidifies into a solid state when the temperature is below 25°C, resulting in a decrease in fluidity, the blocking component 570 can break and disperse the locally condensed oily substances in the liquid raw material, thereby improving the mixing rate of the solid-liquid raw materials. And when the liquid raw material contacts the blades of the heated spiral shaft 400, it can also absorb heat, which not only can reduce the temperature of the spiral shaft 400 but also can melt the condensed oily substances, thereby improving the fluidity of the liquid raw material;

[0067] II. Mixing process

[0068] The first stage: Heat the internal temperature of the stirring barrel 100 to between 60-65°C through the constant temperature jacket 200, and stir and mix the solid raw materials composed of porous diatomaceous earth + modified montmorillonite + nano-titanium dioxide according to the above ratio;

[0069] The second stage: Cool the internal temperature of the stirring barrel 100 to between 33-37°C through the constant temperature jacket 200, and stir and mix the liquid raw materials composed of lactic acid bacteria lysate + coconut oil derivative with the solid raw materials according to the above ratio to make the cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent.

[0070] Working principle: During the rotation of the spiral shaft 400, the reciprocating lifting assembly 530 is synchronously driven. The reciprocating lifting assembly 530 drives the insertion rod 540 to reciprocate up and down. The insertion rod 540 simultaneously drives the push cylinder 550, the positioning cylinder 560, and the blocking assembly 570 to reciprocate up and down. When the insertion rod 540 moves upward, when the push cylinder 550 separates from the liquid guide cavity 430, the liquid raw material inside the liquid inlet cavity 420 loses its blockage and quickly fills the movable liquid storage space jointly formed by the treatment cavity 440, the push cylinder 550, and the blocking assembly 570. When the insertion rod 540 moves downward, the push cylinder 550 pushes the liquid raw material in the treatment cavity 440 downward and blocks the liquid guide cavity 430. When the blocking assembly 570 is blocked by the step between the communication position of the treatment cavity 440 and the positioning cavity 450, at this time, the movable liquid storage space just communicates with the liquid discharge cavity 460. During the subsequent downward movement of the push cylinder 550, the liquid raw material can be pressurized and extruded through the liquid discharge cavity 460. This can mix the liquid raw material and the solid raw material at the same height together. Compared with the existing method of directly pouring the liquid raw material from top to bottom, the uniform flow mechanism 500 cooperates with the spiral shaft 400 to evenly distribute the liquid raw material to the solid raw materials at different positions, which can reduce the humidity difference of the liquid raw materials at different positions and make the solid-liquid mixing more uniform. At the same time, this can not only moisten the viscosity of the spiral shaft 400 blades by the solid raw materials, making the spiral shaft 400 more easily perform the stirring and mixing operation, thereby reducing the power consumption of the spiral shaft 400 during operation, but also absorb and disperse the heat generated by the spiral shaft 400 blades due to stirring and friction with the solid raw materials, so as to ensure that the solid and liquid raw materials can be mixed and stirred within the specified temperature range, avoiding the inactivation or destruction of the stability of the lactic acid bacteria fermentation lysate due to too high temperature, making the processing of this cat litter deodorant and antibacterial agent more scientific and intelligent.

[0071] It should be noted that in the above description, the spiral shaft 400, the liquid infusion pump 510, the first reduction motor, the second reduction motor, the chiller, and the temperature sensor are all devices with relatively mature applications in the prior art. The specific models can be selected according to actual needs. At the same time, the power supply of the spiral shaft 400, the liquid infusion pump 510, the first reduction motor, the second reduction motor, the chiller, and the temperature sensor can be powered by an internal power supply or by mains power. The specific power supply method is selected according to the situation and will not be elaborated here.

[0072] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of concise description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combinations of these technical features do not conflict, they should all be considered as the scope described in this specification.

[0073] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation manners of the present invention. The description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation to the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the appended claims.
