Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cat litter boxes, in particular to a cat litter box capable of being opened and closed in linkage. Background Art

[0002] In today's rapidly growing pet market, the demand for diversified pet products is becoming increasingly prominent. Although traditional cat litter boxes basically meet the needs of pet owners in terms of functionality, their design and functions often lack innovation and show the characteristics of consistency and similarity. Currently, most non-intelligent cat litter boxes on the market adopt an open or semi-enclosed design, and the opening method of the semi-enclosed cat litter box also lacks differentiation and innovation, which cannot effectively solve the diversification of cat litter box use and bring users a new user experience.

[0003] At the same time, when cats use ordinary litter boxes, the surface of the box cover will inevitably be stained with excrement, which will bring an unpleasant experience to the user when observing whether the inside of the cat litter box needs to be replaced. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the problems existing in the background technology, the present invention provides a cat litter box with linked opening and closing.

[0005] The utility model adopts the following technical scheme: comprising a basin body, a basin cover, a linkage member and an external control disc, wherein the basin body and the basin cover are connected by a rotating shaft; one end of the linkage member is connected to the basin cover, and the other end is connected to the external control disc; the external control disc is movably connected to one side of the basin body; the external control disc controls the opening and closing of the basin cover through the linkage member. When the external control disc is rotated, the linkage member is driven, and the basin cover is driven by the linkage member. The basin cover and the basin body are connected by a rotating shaft, so the basin cover is opened and closed by moving axially along the rotating shaft under the drive of the linkage member.

[0006] Furthermore, a connection hole is provided on one side of the basin body, and the external control disc is divided into an extension piece and a fixing piece, and the extension piece passes through the connection hole and is movably fixed to the fixing piece, so that the external control disc can be hung on one side of the basin body and still rotate.

[0007] Furthermore, the basin body is provided with a pull ring, and the pull ring is arranged in a symmetrical direction of the basin body, so that easy carrying can be achieved.

[0008] Furthermore, the basin cover is provided with an opening, the basin cover side is provided with a rotating hole movably connected to the linkage, and the upper edge of the basin body is provided with a groove. The opening on the basin cover is used for the cat to enter and exit the cat litter box, the rotating hole is used for movably connecting the linkage, and the groove is used to receive the protrusion when the linkage is connected to the basin cover when the basin cover is in the closed state, so as to achieve a better sealing effect.

[0009] Furthermore, the extension piece is provided with a reinforcing rib, the length of which is shorter than the width of the extension piece, so that when the extension piece and the fixing piece are clamped and fixed, one side of the reinforcing rib abuts against the fixing piece. A plurality of reinforcing ribs arranged in an orderly manner on the extension piece reduce the contact area between the fixing piece and the extension piece when they are connected, which can reduce the friction of the external control disc during rotation, enhance the hand feel, and facilitate rotation.

[0010] Furthermore, a protrusion is provided on one side of the extension member and is movably connected to the round hole at one end of the linkage member, so that the linkage member can also rotate flexibly when the external control disc rotates and rises.

[0011] The utility model provides a cat litter box with linked opening and closing, which has the beneficial effects of breaking through the design limitations of traditional cat litter boxes and introducing a linked opening and closing mechanism, thereby avoiding direct contact with the box cover when checking the condition inside the cat litter box, making it more convenient, more hygienic and more effective for pet owners in daily use, and providing better user experience and quality of life.

[0015] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0016] See also Figure 1-2 The embodiment of the utility model provides a technical solution: a cat litter box with linkage opening and closing, comprising a basin body 1, a basin cover 2, a linkage member 4 and an external control disc 3, wherein the basin body 1 and the basin cover 2 are connected by a rotating shaft; one end of the linkage member 4 is connected to the basin cover 2, and the other end is connected to the external control disc 3; the external control disc 3 is movably connected to one side of the basin body 1; the external control disc 3 controls the opening and closing of the basin cover 2 through the linkage member 4. When the external control disc 3 is rotated, the linkage member 4 is driven, and the basin cover 2 is driven by the linkage member 4. The basin cover 2 is connected to the basin body 1 by a rotating shaft, so under the drive of the linkage member 4, the basin cover 2 moves axially along the rotating shaft to achieve the effect of opening and closing the basin cover 2.

[0017] A connection hole 9 is provided on one side of the basin body 1, and the external control disc 3 is divided into an extension piece 5 and a fixing piece 6. The extension piece 5 passes through the connection hole 9 and is movably fixed to the fixing piece 6. The external control disc 3 can be hung on one side of the basin body 1 and still rotate.

[0018] The basin body 1 is provided with a pull ring 10, and the pull ring 10 is arranged in a symmetrical direction of the basin body 1, so that easy carrying can be achieved.

[0019] The basin cover 2 is provided with an opening 8, a rotating hole 12 movably connected to the linkage member 4 is provided on the side of the basin cover 2, and a groove 13 is provided on the upper edge of the basin body 1. The opening 8 on the basin cover 2 is used for cats to enter and exit the cat litter box, the rotating hole 12 is used to movably connect the linkage member 4, and the groove 13 is used to receive the protrusion when the linkage member 4 is connected to the basin cover 2 when the basin cover 2 is in the closed state, so as to achieve a better sealing effect.

[0020] The extension piece 5 is provided with a reinforcing rib 11, and the length of the reinforcing rib 11 is shorter than the extended width of the extension piece 5, so that when the extension piece 5 and the fixing piece 6 are clamped and fixed, one side of the reinforcing rib 11 abuts against the fixing piece 6. A plurality of reinforcing ribs 11 arranged in an orderly manner on the extension piece 5 reduce the contact area between the fixing piece 6 and the extension piece 5 when they are connected, which can reduce the friction force of the external control disc 3 when it rotates, enhance the hand feel, and facilitate rotation.

[0021] A protrusion 7 is provided on one side of the extension member 5 and is movably connected to the circular hole at one end of the linkage member 4. The linkage member 4 can also rotate flexibly when the external control disc 3 rotates and rises. At the same time, the connecting hole 9 connects the inner and outer spaces of the basin body 1, and also adds a passage for cats to enter and exit the cat litter basin.

[0022] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the utility model and the advantages of the utility model. For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the utility model.
