In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.
[0040] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2The present embodiment provides a pet feces packing device, which can realize automatic packing and automatic bagging of garbage bags, without the need for users to manually bag, thereby improving the user experience. The pet feces packing device includes a feces collection bin 1, a bagging mechanism, a detection component and a hot melt component. The bagging mechanism is arranged in the feces collection bin 1, including a garbage bag box 2 and a driving component. The garbage bag box 2 is provided with a first opening 21 connected to the inner cavity of the feces collection bin 1. A garbage bag is wound in the garbage bag box 2, and one end of the garbage bag extends out of the garbage bag box 2 and extends into the feces collection bin 1. The driving component can cover the garbage bag in the feces collection bin 1, and the pet feces can enter the garbage bag in the feces collection bin 1 through the first opening 21. The detection component is arranged in the feces collection bin 1, and is used to detect the capacity of pet feces in the feces collection bin 1. The hot melt component is arranged in the feces collection bin 1. When the capacity of pet feces in the feces collection bin 1 reaches a preset value, the hot melt component can heat-seal and melt the garbage bag covered on the feces collection bin 1.
[0041] The pet excrement packaging device provided in this embodiment can start the driving part to set the garbage bag in the garbage bag box 2 into the excrement collection bin 1, so that the pet excrement enters the garbage bag in the excrement collection bin 1 through the first opening 21, thereby collecting the pet excrement. The detection part can detect the capacity of the pet excrement in the excrement collection bin 1 in real time. When the capacity of the pet excrement in the excrement collection bin 1 reaches a preset value, the hot melt part can heat-seal the garbage bag set on the excrement collection bin 1, so that the garbage bag containing pet excrement is tightly sealed, and the automatic packaging of the garbage bag is realized to prevent the leakage of pet excrement. While heat-sealing, the heat-sealing part can also melt the garbage bag, which is convenient for the user to take out the garbage bag containing pet excrement, and then start the driving part again to set a new garbage bag in the excrement collection bin 1. Such a setting realizes the automatic packaging and automatic bagging of the garbage bag, without the need for the user to manually bag, thereby improving the user experience.
[0042] In this embodiment, the detection component is a position sensor, and the position sensor is arranged at a suitable height on the inner wall of the feces collecting bin 1. When the height of the pet feces in the feces collecting bin 1 reaches the height of the position sensor, it means that the capacity of the pet feces in the feces collecting bin 1 reaches the preset value, thereby driving the hot melt component to heat seal and melt the garbage bag in the feces collecting bin 1.
[0043] In other embodiments, the detection element may also be a weight sensor, which can accurately measure the weight of the pet feces in the feces collecting bin 1. When the weight of the pet feces in the feces collecting bin 1 reaches a preset weight, it means that the capacity of the pet feces in the feces collecting bin 1 reaches a preset value, thereby driving the hot melt element to heat seal and melt the garbage bag in the feces collecting bin 1.
[0044] Preferably, the capacity of the feces collection bin 1 is not less than 10L, so as to increase the capacity of the feces collection bin 1 and reduce the frequency of replacing garbage bags. Taking raising pet cats as an example, under normal circumstances, a single-cat family uses this device, and it will take about 20 days to fill up the feces collection bin 1, so that when traveling or when no one is at home, it is easy to deal with the toilet problem of the pet, which is convenient and worry-free.
[0045] Optionally, the hot melt component is a hot melt machine, and the garbage bag can be heat-sealed by starting the motor of the hot melt machine. The structure and working principle of the hot melt machine belong to the prior art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0046] Preferably, the driving member is a fan, and the air inlet of the fan faces the inner cavity of the feces collecting bin 1. Since one end of the outermost garbage bag extends into the feces collecting bin 1, after the fan is started, a negative pressure state appears in the receiving bin, so that the garbage bag can be sucked and made to fit on the inner wall of the feces collecting bin 1, and the garbage bag is automatically set in the feces collecting bin 1, without the need for the user to manually set the garbage bag, which is very convenient. It is understandable that the length of the garbage bag set in the feces collecting bin 1 can be controlled by controlling the opening time of the fan.
[0047] Optionally, a sealing door 3 is further included, which is arranged in the excrement collecting bin 1 and is used to close or open the first opening 21. When the garbage bag of the excrement collecting bin 1 contains pet excrement, the odor of the pet excrement will escape and pollute the environment. Based on this, the excrement collecting bin 1 is provided with a sealing door 3. When the pet excrement is not collected, the sealing door 3 is used to seal the first opening 21, thereby preventing the odor from escaping and effectively protecting the environment.
[0048] In this embodiment, the sealing door 3 includes two first door panels, which are relatively arranged on both sides of the garbage bag. The two first door panels can move towards or away from each other to close or open the first opening 21, and clamp or loosen the garbage bag. When not collecting pet feces, the two first door panels are driven to move towards each other until the two first door panels are in contact. At this time, the two first door panels jointly seal the first opening 21 and clamp the garbage bag in the feces collection bin 1 to prevent odor from escaping. When collecting pet feces, the two first door panels are driven to move away from each other until the two first door panels avoid the first opening 21. At this time, the two first door panels no longer clamp the garbage bag, allowing pet feces to enter the garbage bag.
[0049] Furthermore, a mobile driving member is provided, and the mobile driving member is provided in one-to-one correspondence with the two first door panels. The mobile driving member is provided on the inner wall of the feces collecting bin 1, and the output end is connected to the first door panel to drive the first door panel to move. By starting the mobile driving member, the first door panel can be driven to move, so that the first opening 21 can be closed or opened. Optionally, the mobile driving member includes but is not limited to a cylinder, an electric cylinder, etc.
[0050] Optionally, see Figure 2 The top surface of the feces collecting bin 1 is provided with a receiving groove, which is communicated with the inner cavity of the feces collecting bin 1, and the garbage bag box 2 can be inserted into the receiving groove to realize the detachable connection between the garbage bag box 2 and the feces collecting bin 1, so that the garbage bag box 2 can be easily removed after the garbage bag is used up, so as to add garbage bags into the garbage bag box 2, which is very convenient. In this embodiment, when the garbage bag box 2 is inserted into the receiving groove, the top surface of the garbage bag box 2 is flush with the top surface of the feces collecting bin 1.
[0051] Furthermore, the garbage bag box 2 is annular, and the hollow part of the annular shape is the first opening 21. Furthermore, the garbage bag box 2 includes a box body 22 and a box cover 23 that are interlocked, and the box body 22 and the box cover 23 together form a storage space for placing the garbage bag. Furthermore, the inner side of the box body 22 or the box cover 23 is circumferentially provided with an annular third opening 24, and the end of the garbage bag extends into the feces collection bin 1 through the third opening 24. When the fan is started, the fan can suck the garbage bag so that it is set in the feces collection bin 1. The annular garbage bag box 2 can support the garbage bag in the circumferential direction, so that the garbage bag can be aligned with the first opening 21, thereby facilitating the placement of pet feces into the garbage bag. In this embodiment, the third opening 24 is provided on the box cover 23.
[0052] Optionally, see Figure 3 , and also includes a shell 5, which is covered outside the feces collecting bin 1. The shell 5 is provided with a second opening, and a second door panel 51 is rotatably provided at the second opening. The second door panel 51 can close or open the second opening by rotating. The setting of the shell 5 can effectively protect the feces collecting bin 1 and ensure its aesthetics. Under normal conditions, the second door panel 51 closes the second opening to further prevent the odor from escaping. The second opening can be opened by rotating the second door panel 51, so that the user can take out the packed garbage bag in the feces collecting bin 1 through the second opening, which is convenient to use.
[0053] Preferably, an adsorbent is provided in the housing 5, and the adsorbent can adsorb the odor in the housing 5 to deodorize. Exemplarily, the adsorbent is made of activated carbon, which has a good adsorption effect and can effectively adsorb the odor in the housing 5.
[0054] Optionally, a guide tube 4 is further included, which is buckled on the top of the garbage bag box 2, and pet feces can enter the feces collection bin 1 through the guide tube 4. The inner diameter of the guide tube 4 gradually increases in the direction away from the garbage bag box 2. The setting of the guide tube 4 can provide a guiding effect for pet feces, so that the pet feces can better enter the garbage bag in the feces collection bin 1, thereby improving the collection effect of pet feces.
[0055] Optionally, an alarm is also included, and when the pet feces in the feces collection bin 1 reaches a preset value, the alarm can sound an alarm. When the pet feces in the feces collection bin 1 reaches a preset value, the hot melt element acts to seal the garbage bag, and the alarm sounds an alarm to promptly remind the user to take out the garbage bag after packaging. Optionally, the alarm can be an indicator light.
[0056] See also Figures 3 to 8 The present embodiment further provides a cat litter box, comprising a cat litter box body and the pet excrement packing device 10, wherein the pet excrement packing device 10 is electrically connected to the cat litter box body, and the cat litter box body can process cat excrement and transport the processed cat excrement to the excrement collecting bin 1. The cat litter box body can send an electrical signal to the pet excrement packing device 10, thereby realizing automatic packing and bagging, without the need for manual bagging by the user, which greatly improves the user experience.
[0057] Specifically, the cat litter box also includes a base 40, and the cat litter box body and the packaging device are both arranged on the base 40. Further, the cat litter box body includes a drum mechanism 20, one end of the drum mechanism 20 is provided with an entrance and exit 201, the other end is provided with a feces outlet 202, and the feces collection bin 1 is arranged below the feces outlet 202. Cat litter is stored in the drum mechanism 20, and the cat enters the drum mechanism 20 through the entrance and exit 201 to go to the toilet. After the cat goes to the toilet and leaves, the drum mechanism 20 sieves the cat feces by rolling, so that the agglomerated cat feces enters the feces collection bin 1 through the feces outlet 202 and the first opening 21 on the garbage bag box 2 for packaging. The drum mechanism 20 can adopt the cat litter box drum structure in the prior art, which will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
