Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pet products, and in particular to a pet grooming device and a method for manufacturing the same. Background Technology
[0002] In modern society, urban life is fast-paced and stressful, and pets have become an important emotional outlet for alleviating loneliness, stress and anxiety. Often, pets are regarded as "children" or "family members." As a result, more and more pet-related tools and equipment are being used in the relationship between pets and humans, including products related to pet grooming and collection.
[0003] Most grooming brushes and shaving products on the market cause discomfort to pets during the grooming process. With prolonged use, pets may become uncooperative, thus affecting shaving efficiency. Furthermore, these grooming brushes and shaving products generally have the following problems:
[0004] First, during the grooming process, the hair scraped off the pet by the comb part of the groomer is difficult to clean in time. Users usually need to clean the comb needles manually, which can affect the grooming efficiency and result in an unsatisfactory user experience.
[0005] Second, due to the unreasonable design of the comb teeth on the existing hair combs, it is often found that the hair cannot be combed together during the combing process. Users often need to use the currently popular single-row steel needle comb to manually comb the hair, which can easily affect the shaving efficiency and is not convenient to use, thus affecting the user experience. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a pet grooming device. This grooming device has a simple structure and is easy to use. It can effectively improve the pet's physical comfort during use, and can automatically comb and clean the hair on the comb needles in a timely manner during the pet grooming process, effectively reducing manual intervention by the user and improving the user experience.
[0007] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing the cylindrical comb in the above-mentioned pet grooming device.
[0008] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: a pet grooming device, comprising a grooming box, a cylindrical comb, a one-way rotating component, and a pressing component. The cylindrical comb is located on the open side of the grooming box. Pressing components are respectively provided on the inner side of the grooming box at both ends of the cylindrical comb. One-way rotating components are respectively provided at both ends of the cylindrical comb, and the outer ends of the one-way rotating components are connected to the pressing components. The cylindrical comb includes a support frame, a soft comb needle part, a hard comb needle part, a hair removal pusher, and a cam plate rail. Along the circumferential direction of the support frame, the soft comb needle part and the hard comb needle part are alternately distributed on the cylindrical surface of the support frame. The outer periphery of the hard comb needle part is fitted with a hair removal pusher. Cam plate rails are respectively provided at both ends of the support frame. The two ends of the hair removal pusher are also respectively connected to the cam plate rails. A through hole is provided in the center of the cam plate rail. The one-way rotating component extends into the through hole and connects to the support frame.
[0009] When using this grooming device, users can hand-groom, groom, or massage their pets, or install it in the pet's activity area (such as grooming passages, in front of pet enclosures, etc.) for use when the pet passes by. The grooming device features an inner cavity for collecting hair, a cylindrical comb for grooming, grooming, or massage, and a unidirectional rotation component that ensures the comb rotates in only one direction, drawing hair into and collecting it within the inner cavity of the combing box, preventing hair from being pulled out due to reverse rotation. A pressing component allows the comb to move horizontally along the opening of the combing box, providing a massage effect on the pet's body. In a cylindrical comb, the support frame serves as the main support for the entire comb, providing a base for the installation of other components. The soft comb needles and hard comb needles are fixedly connected to the support frame to form an integral cylindrical comb body, providing combing, shaving, or massage functions. The cylindrical comb body can rotate relative to the cam discs at both ends, but under the action of the unidirectional rotation component, the cylindrical comb body only rotates in one direction, allowing the hair to be pushed out and cleaned in the set direction, avoiding the phenomenon of hair falling out randomly due to the reverse movement of the cylindrical comb body. The soft comb needles can provide a certain massage effect during combing and shaving, improving the pet's comfort. The hard comb needles are mainly used to comb the hair and shave off the pet's loose hair during the combing process. The hair removal pusher is used to clean the hair shaving off the hard comb needles. Through the action of the cam discs, the hair removal pusher can move up and down relative to the hard comb needles along the radial direction of the cylindrical comb. During the upward movement, the hair on the hard comb needles is pushed out, achieving automatic cleaning.
[0010] In the cylindrical comb, the cylindrical surface of the support frame is alternately provided with a first mounting groove and a second mounting groove. The soft comb needle is located in the first mounting groove and the hard comb needle is located in the second mounting groove. The end faces of both ends of the support frame are respectively provided with a first sliding groove. The number of first sliding grooves corresponds to the number of hair removal pushers. The two ends of the hair removal pushers are slidably connected to the first sliding grooves respectively.
[0011] In the cylindrical comb, the hair removal pusher includes a frame body, a first sliding part and a second sliding part. The frame body is sleeved on the outer periphery of the hard comb needle part. The frame body is provided with a first sliding part at both ends, and a second sliding part is provided at the lower end of each first sliding part. The first sliding part cooperates with the first sliding groove on the end face of the support frame, and the second sliding part cooperates with the cam disc rail.
[0012] In the cylindrical comb, a second sliding groove in the shape of a cam is provided on the side where the cam disc rail connects with the support frame, and the second sliding part of the hair removal pusher cooperates with the second sliding groove.
[0013] In the aforementioned cylindrical comb structure, as the supporting frame drives the soft and hard comb needles to rotate unidirectionally, the hair removal pusher also rotates with the supporting frame. The cam disc rail remains stationary. The hair removal pusher rotates relative to the cam disc rail through the sliding engagement of its second sliding part and the second sliding groove. Simultaneously, because the second sliding groove is cam-shaped, the hair removal pusher undergoes radial lifting and lowering relative to the supporting frame and the hard comb needles during rotation. During this lifting and lowering process, its first sliding part slides relative to the first sliding groove. The soft comb needles have an arc-shaped surface with several soft comb needles distributed on it. These soft comb needles are made of TPE silicone, providing a delicate and smooth feel, which is very skin-friendly and comfortable, enhancing the pet's experience during grooming. The hard comb needles have a straight row structure with several hard comb needles arranged side-by-side. These hard comb needles are made of stainless steel, and the polishing and grinding of individual needles, as well as the density of the entire row, facilitate the combing and grooming of the pet's fur. The supporting frame is made of ABS hard plastic, providing high-strength support.
[0014] The comb box also has a comb bar on the open side, which is located below the cylindrical comb. The comb bar serves two purposes: it assists in combing the hair and it prevents hair from falling out of the comb box opening as the cylindrical comb rotates.
[0015] The unidirectional rotation assembly includes a rotating shaft and a unidirectional bearing. The support frame has mounting holes at both ends. After the rotating shaft passes through the through hole on the cam disc rail, the end of the rotating shaft is installed in the mounting hole of the support frame through the unidirectional bearing.
[0016] The pressing assembly includes a push rod, a spring, and a spring cover. The spring is sleeved on the push rod, and the push rod and the spring are installed in the spring cover. The spring cover is fixedly installed inside the comb box. The end of the push rod extends to the outside of the spring cover, and the push rod can be translated relative to the spring cover.
[0017] The inner wall of the comb box is provided with a mounting base, and the pressing component is located above the mounting base. The mounting base has a mounting groove, and the end of the rotating shaft in the one-way rotating component is embedded in the mounting groove. Above the mounting groove, the spring cover has a notch; the width of the notch on the spring cover is smaller than the width of the mounting groove. In the mounting base, when the cylindrical comb is in its original state, the head of the push rod is located in the mounting groove, the notch on the spring cover is located above the head of the push rod, and the end of the rotating shaft on the outer side of the cylindrical comb end face is flush with the head of the push rod and located in the mounting groove. When the cylindrical comb is pressed, the rotating shafts at both ends of the cylindrical comb move along the mounting groove, squeezing the push rod to move backward. At this time, the push rod compresses the spring. When the push rod moves to its limit position, the end of the rotating shaft is aligned below the notch on the spring cover. At this time, the user can remove the cylindrical comb and the one-way rotating component from the notch according to actual needs. Since the spring is compressed during the movement of the push rod, when the cylindrical comb is removed or is no longer pressed, the push rod naturally returns to its original position under the action of the spring.
[0018] The comb box includes a lid and a body. On the side opposite to the opening, the lid and the body are hinged together. Near the opening, there is a fastener between the lid and the body. Through the fastener, the user can quickly open or close the lid to easily remove the hair collected in the inner cavity of the comb box.
[0019] The present invention also provides a method for manufacturing the cylindrical comb in the above-mentioned combing device, comprising the following steps:
[0020] (1) Using stainless steel rings, after straightening, cutting and sharpening, several steel needles of the same length are made. A vibrating plate is used to gather the steel needles into the fixture to form a straight-line hard comb needle section.
[0021] (2) The soft comb needle part is made of TPE material in one piece; the support frame is made of ABS material in one piece. The first mounting groove for installing the soft comb needle part and the second mounting groove for installing the hard comb needle part are reserved on the cylindrical surface of the support frame. The first sliding groove for cooperating with the hair removal pusher is reserved on the end face of both ends of the support frame. The support frame is also reserved with mounting holes at both ends.
[0022] (3) Soft comb needles and hard comb needles are alternately embedded on the cylindrical surface of the supporting frame;
[0023] (4) Assemble the one-way bearings of the one-way rotation assembly in the mounting holes at both ends of the support frame;
[0024] (5) A hair removal pusher is fitted around the outer periphery of the hard comb needle, and the lower part of the hair removal pusher is embedded in the first groove of the end face of the support skeleton;
[0025] (6) Install cam disc rails at both ends of the support frame, and assemble the rotating shaft of the one-way rotating assembly at the through hole in the middle of the cam disc rail. After the end of the rotating shaft passes through the through hole, it is embedded into the one-way bearing.
[0026] When using the above-mentioned grooming device, users can use it to brush, shave, or massage their pets by hand. Alternatively, the grooming device can be installed in the pet's activity area (such as grooming passages, in front of the pet enclosure, etc.) and used when the pet passes by.
[0027] Regardless of the usage method, when the combing device is pressed against the pet's body, the cylindrical comb produces a certain amount of pressing motion, thus creating a massage effect. As the pet's body passes over the cylindrical comb, since the comb can only rotate in one direction, it remains stationary when the direction the body is passing is not the same as the comb's rotation direction. In this case, the hair can be combed or shaved. When the direction the body is passing is the same as the comb's rotation direction, the comb rotates, bringing the shaved hair into the inner cavity of the comb box. When the cylindrical comb rotates, its supporting frame drives the soft comb needles, hard comb needles, and hair removal pusher to rotate unidirectionally relative to the cam discs at both ends. During rotation, the soft comb needles provide a massage effect on the pet's body, while the hard comb needles are mainly used to comb and gather the pet's hair. The process involves scraping off shed pet hair. Since the cam track is fixed, the second sliding groove on the cam track, shaped like a cam, engages with the second sliding part on the hair removal pusher. During rotation, the hair removal pusher moves radially up and down relative to the supporting frame and the hard comb needles. During this movement, the first sliding part slides relative to the first groove. As the pusher rises, it pushes out the hair from the hard comb needles, achieving automatic cleaning. When the highest point of the second groove in the cam track (the position corresponding to the highest point of the pusher) is set towards the inner cavity of the comb box, the pusher can directly push the hair from the hard comb needles into the inner cavity of the comb box. After completion, as the supporting frame rotates, the pusher descends, and the hard comb needles continue to comb and gather the pet's hair. Because multiple soft and hard comb needles are alternately distributed on the supporting frame, the hard comb needles can periodically alternate in combing and cleaning the hair during the rotation of the supporting frame.
[0028] When you need to clean the hair collected inside the comb box, you can open the lid and take the hair out. When you need to clean the various parts inside the comb box, you can open the lid and use the notch on the pressing component and spring cover to remove the cylindrical comb and its one-way rotating component, clean them, and then reinstall them.
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0030] This pet grooming device has a simple structure and is easy to use. By designing the cylindrical comb to rotate in one direction and produce a pressing action, it can effectively improve the pet's physical comfort during use. At the same time, by utilizing the cooperation of the cam disc rails at both ends of the cylindrical comb, the hair removal pusher and the hard comb needles, it can automatically comb and clean the hair on the comb needles in a timely manner during the pet grooming process, effectively reducing manual intervention by the user, improving the user experience, and has good market prospects.
[0031] This pet grooming device collects and stores hair in the grooming box during grooming. The cylindrical comb can be quickly removed or installed from the box for easy cleaning, significantly improving the user experience. Using a one-way bearing, the cylindrical comb rotates in a specific direction, drawing hair into the box. The hair-removing pusher and cam track design further push the hair directly into the box's interior, completely eliminating manual operation and achieving automatic cleaning. The hair inside the box is intercepted and stored by the combs at the box's opening, resulting in excellent hair collection and a superior user experience.
[0032] When this grooming device is applied to a grooming channel, multiple devices can be spliced together to form a circular channel structure with a passageway in the middle. When the pet passes through, it can not only achieve rapid grooming all around the pet's body, but also, due to the setting of the pressing component and the one-way rotating component, the rotation and micro-bounce of the cylindrical comb will be more comfortable and smooth. The comb needles are made of silicone-like soft rubber material on the outside of the cylindrical comb, and the supporting frame is made of hard rubber material on the inside, making the parts in contact with the pet softer and effectively improving its comfort.
[0033] In this grooming device, the cylindrical comb is made by using various materials to create corresponding parts, which are then assembled. The process is relatively simple and the production cost is low. In addition, the combination of hard and soft comb needles in the cylindrical comb provides a good feel for the pet during grooming. The hard comb needles are made of stainless steel, and because the steel comb teeth are very closely spaced, they can effectively remove pet hair and dirt, resulting in a good cleaning effect. The soft comb needles use a multi-row soft rubber structure, which can provide a certain massage effect for the pet, which helps to improve the pet's feel during grooming. At the same time, the friction between the soft comb needles and the pet's body can also provide assistance for the rotation of the cylindrical comb, making it simple to operate and convenient to use.

[0059] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments, but the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0060] Example 1
[0061] This embodiment describes a pet grooming device, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the device includes a comb box 1, a cylindrical comb 2, a one-way rotating assembly 3, and a pressing assembly 4. The cylindrical comb is located on the open side of the comb box. Pressing assemblies are respectively located inside the comb box at both ends of the cylindrical comb. One-way rotating assemblies are located at both ends of the cylindrical comb, and the outer ends of the one-way rotating assemblies are connected to the pressing assemblies. Wherein, as... Figures 5 to 9As shown, the cylindrical comb includes a support frame 5, soft comb needles 6, hard comb needles 7, a hair removal pusher 8, and a cam rail 9. Along the circumference of the support frame, the soft and hard comb needles are alternately distributed on the cylindrical surface of the support frame. The hair removal pusher is fitted around the outer periphery of the hard comb needles. Cam rails are located at both ends of the support frame, and both ends of the hair removal pusher are connected to the cam rails. A through hole is located at the center of the cam rail, and a one-way rotating component extends from the through hole to connect with the support frame. When using this grooming device, users can hand-groom, groom, or massage their pets, or install the device in the pet's activity area (such as grooming passages, in front of pet enclosures, etc.) for use when the pet passes by. In this grooming device, the grooming box has an inner cavity for collecting hair, and the cylindrical comb provides the functions of combing, shaving, or massaging. The unidirectional rotation component allows the cylindrical comb to rotate in only one direction, making it easy to bring hair into and collect it in the inner cavity of the grooming box, preventing hair from being brought out of the grooming box due to reverse rotation. The pressing component allows the cylindrical comb to make a certain stroke of translational movement along the opening of the grooming box, thereby producing a massage effect on the pet's body. In a cylindrical comb, the support frame serves as the main support for the entire comb, providing a base for the installation of other components. The soft comb needles and hard comb needles are fixedly connected to the support frame to form an integral cylindrical comb body, providing combing, shaving, or massage functions. The cylindrical comb body can rotate relative to the cam discs at both ends, but under the action of the unidirectional rotation component, the cylindrical comb body only rotates in one direction, allowing the hair to be pushed out and cleaned in the set direction, avoiding the phenomenon of hair falling out randomly due to the reverse movement of the cylindrical comb body. The soft comb needles can provide a certain massage effect during combing and shaving, improving the pet's comfort. The hard comb needles are mainly used to comb the hair and shave off the pet's loose hair during the combing process. The hair removal pusher is used to clean the hair shaving off the hard comb needles. Through the action of the cam discs, the hair removal pusher can move up and down relative to the hard comb needles along the radial direction of the cylindrical comb. During the upward movement, the hair on the hard comb needles is pushed out, achieving automatic cleaning.
[0062] In a cylindrical comb, such as Figure 9 As shown, the cylindrical surface of the support frame has alternating first mounting grooves 5-1 and second mounting grooves 5-2. The soft comb needles are located in the first mounting groove, and the hard comb needles are located in the second mounting groove. First sliding grooves 5-3 are respectively provided on the end faces of both ends of the support frame. The number of first sliding grooves corresponds to the number of hair removal clippers, and both ends of the hair removal clippers are slidably connected to the first sliding grooves. Figure 4 or Figure 6As shown, the hair removal clipper includes a frame body 8-1, a first sliding part 8-2, and a second sliding part 8-3. The frame body is fitted around the outer periphery of the hard comb needle part. First sliding parts are provided at both ends of the frame body, and second sliding parts are provided at the lower end of each first sliding part. The first sliding parts cooperate with first sliding grooves on the end faces of the support frame, and the second sliding parts cooperate with cam disc rails. Figures 6 to 8 As shown, a second cam-shaped groove 9-1 is provided on the side of the cam disc rail that connects to the support frame. The second sliding part of the hair removal pusher cooperates with the second groove. In this cylindrical comb structure, as the support frame drives the soft comb needles and hard comb needles to rotate in one direction, the hair removal pusher also rotates with the support frame. The cam disc rail remains stationary. The hair removal pusher rotates relative to the cam disc rail by utilizing the sliding cooperation between its second sliding part and the second groove. At the same time, because the second groove is cam-shaped, the hair removal pusher will move radially up and down relative to the support frame and hard comb needles during rotation. During the up and down movement, its first sliding part slides relative to the first groove. The soft comb needles are arc-shaped surfaces with several soft comb needles distributed on the surface. The soft comb needles are made of TPE silicone, which has a delicate and smooth feel, is very skin-friendly and comfortable, and is beneficial to the pet's physical experience during grooming. The hard comb section features a straight row of needles arranged side-by-side. These needles are made of stainless steel, and the polishing and high density of each needle in the row facilitates the combing and grooming of pet hair. The support frame is made of ABS hard plastic, providing high-strength support.
[0063] like Figure 3 or Figure 4 As shown, the comb box also has a comb bar 10 on the open side, which is located below the cylindrical comb. The comb bar serves two purposes: firstly, it assists in combing the hair, and secondly, it prevents hair from falling out of the comb box opening as the cylindrical comb rotates.
[0064] like Figure 4 or Figure 12 As shown, the one-way rotation assembly includes a rotating shaft 3-1 and a one-way bearing 3-2. The support frame has mounting holes 5-4 at both ends. After the rotating shaft passes through the through hole on the cam disc rail, the end of the rotating shaft is installed in the mounting hole of the support frame through the one-way bearing.
[0065] like Figure 4 As shown, the pressing assembly includes a push rod 4-1, a spring 4-2, and a spring cover 4-3. The spring is sleeved on the push rod, and the push rod and spring are installed in the spring cover. The spring cover is fixedly installed inside the comb box. The end of the push rod extends to the outside of the spring cover, and the push rod can translate relative to the spring cover. A mounting base 11 is provided on the inner wall of the comb box. The pressing assembly is located above the mounting base, which has a mounting groove 11-1. The end of the rotating shaft in the one-way rotating assembly is embedded in the mounting groove (the structure after installation is as shown). Figure 12 or Figure 13 (As shown in the diagram) Above the mounting groove, the spring cover has a notch 4-4; the width of the notch on the spring cover is smaller than the width of the mounting groove. In the mounting base, when the cylindrical comb is in its original state, the head of the push rod is located in the mounting groove, the notch on the spring cover is located above the head of the push rod, and the end of the rotating shaft on the outer side of the cylindrical comb end face is flush with the head of the push rod and located in the mounting groove; when the cylindrical comb is pressed, the rotating shafts at both ends of the cylindrical comb move along the mounting groove, squeezing the push rod to move backward. At this time, the push rod compresses the spring. When the push rod moves to its limit position, the end of the rotating shaft is aligned below the notch on the spring cover. At this time, the user can remove the cylindrical comb and the one-way rotating assembly from the notch according to actual needs. Since the spring is compressed during the movement of the push rod, when the cylindrical comb is removed or is no longer pressed, the push rod naturally returns to its original position under the action of the spring.
[0066] The combing box includes a lid 1-1 and a body 1-2. On the opposite side of the opening, the lid and the body are hinged together. Near the opening, there is a buckle between the lid and the body. Through the buckle 1-3, the user can quickly open or close the lid to easily remove the hair collected in the inner cavity of the combing box.
[0067] When using the above-mentioned grooming device, users can use it to brush, shave, or massage their pets by hand. Alternatively, the grooming device can be installed in the pet's activity area (such as grooming passages, in front of the pet enclosure, etc.) and used when the pet passes by.
[0068] Regardless of the method of use, when the combing device is pressed against the pet's body, the cylindrical comb produces a certain amount of pressing motion, thus creating a massage effect. As the pet's body passes over the cylindrical comb, since the comb can only rotate in one direction, it remains stationary when the direction of the body's movement is not the same as the comb's rotation direction. In this case, the hair can be combed or shaved. When the direction of the body's movement is the same as the comb's rotation direction, the cylindrical comb rotates, bringing the shaved hair into the inner cavity of the comb box. During the rotation of the cylindrical comb, its supporting frame drives the soft comb needles, hard comb needles, and hair removal pusher relative to the cams at both ends. The cam track rotates in one direction. During rotation, the soft comb needles provide a massage effect on the pet's body, while the hard comb needles are mainly used to comb and gather the pet's fur, simultaneously removing loose hair. Since the cam track remains stationary, the engagement between the cam-shaped second groove on the cam track and the second sliding part on the hair removal pusher allows the pusher to move radially up and down relative to the support frame and hard comb needles during rotation. During this movement, the first sliding part slides relative to the first groove. As the pusher rises, it pushes out the hair from the hard comb needles, achieving automatic cleaning. Figures 10 to 11As shown, when the highest point of the second groove in the cam disc rail (i.e., the position corresponding to when the hair removal pusher rises to its highest point) is set towards the inner cavity of the grooming box, the hair removal pusher can directly push the hair on the hard comb needles into the inner cavity of the grooming box. After completion, as the support frame rotates, the hair removal pusher descends, and the hard comb needles continue to comb and gather the pet's hair. Because multiple soft and hard comb needles are alternately distributed on the support frame, during the rotation of the support frame, each hard comb needle can periodically alternate in combing and cleaning the hair.
[0069] When you need to clean the hair collected inside the comb box, you can open the lid and take the hair out. When you need to clean the various parts inside the comb box, you can open the lid and use the notch on the pressing component and spring cover to remove the cylindrical comb and its one-way rotating component, clean them, and then reinstall them.

[0071] This embodiment provides a method for manufacturing the cylindrical comb in the combing device described in Embodiment 1, including the following steps:
[0072] (1) Using stainless steel rings, after straightening, cutting and sharpening, several steel needles of the same length are made. A vibrating plate is used to gather the steel needles into the fixture to form a straight-line hard comb needle section.
[0073] (2) The soft comb needle part is molded in one piece using TPE material (i.e. thermoplastic rubber); the support frame is molded in one piece using ABS material (i.e. ABS engineering plastic). A first mounting groove for installing the soft comb needle part and a second mounting groove for installing the hard comb needle part are reserved on the cylindrical surface of the support frame. A first sliding groove for cooperating with the hair removal pusher is reserved on the end faces of both ends of the support frame. Mounting holes are also reserved at both ends of the support frame.
[0074] (3) Soft comb needles and hard comb needles are alternately embedded on the cylindrical surface of the supporting frame;
[0075] (4) Assemble the one-way bearings of the one-way rotation assembly in the mounting holes at both ends of the support frame;
[0076] (5) A hair removal pusher is fitted around the outer periphery of the hard comb needle, and the lower part of the hair removal pusher is embedded in the first groove of the end face of the support skeleton;
[0077] (6) Install cam disc rails at both ends of the support frame, and assemble the rotating shaft of the one-way rotation assembly at the through hole in the middle of the cam disc rail.
