Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cat litter boxes, in particular to a full-automatic cat litter box provided with an anti-pinching protection structure. Background Art
[0002] Cat litter boxes are mainly used as toilet supplies for pet cats, which are convenient for cleaning pets' urine and feces. Therefore, cat litter boxes are indispensable for people who like to keep pets. Traditional cat litter boxes have a simple structure. Basically, a layer of cat litter is spread in the cat litter box. Every time the pet cat urinates or defecates, it will dig up the cat litter to cover it, which requires people to clean it regularly.
[0003] With the continuous advancement of technology, a fully automatic cat litter box has emerged. The fully automatic cat litter box can automatically clean the feces in the cat litter and collect it in the feces collection bin. People only need to empty the feces in the feces collection bin regularly. Compared with traditional cat litter boxes, people's user experience is better.
[0004] As people's living standards continue to improve, more and more families are raising cats, and at the same time, they have high requirements for the quality of raising cats. As one of the most core products for cat-raising families, cat litter boxes should not only free their hands, but also, most importantly, ensure the safety of cats. At present, although the fully automatic cat litter boxes on the market can meet the basic use functions of users, the fully automatic cat litter boxes on the market are still relatively weak in terms of safety protection for cats. Generally, only a pair of infrared beams are used to detect whether the cat is in the fully automatic cat litter box. When the opening of the cat litter bin of the fully automatic cat litter box rotates to the opening of the feces channel, a shear angle will be formed, which is very easy to pinch the cat. Although the fully automatic cat litter boxes on the market basically have a pair of infrared beam detection, the accuracy of infrared beam detection is not high and there are blind spots, which leads to accidents in which cats are pinched by the fully automatic cat litter box.

[0022] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0023] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the utility model provides a fully automatic cat litter box with an anti-pinch protection structure, including a cat litter box main body 1, a cat litter bin 2 and a feces collection bin 3, a rotating support pillar with a movable connection is provided on the top side of the cat litter box main body 1, a rotating through hole is provided on the outer side of the cat litter bin 2, the rotating support pillar is snap-connected in the rotating through hole, the feces collection bin 3 is detachably connected to the bottom of the cat litter box main body 1, a feces drop channel 11 is provided in the middle of the cat litter box main body 1, the feces drop channel 11 can connect the feces collection bin 3 and the opening of the cat litter bin 2, and anti-pinch protection structures 12 are provided on both sides of the feces drop channel 11, and a driving motor and a control main board are also provided on the cat litter box main body 1, the control main board is connected to the driving motor, the driving motor is connected to the rotating support pillar, and the anti-pinch protection structure 12 is connected to the control main board for feedback. In this embodiment, the anti-pinch protection structure can be touched by the cat when the cat falls into the feces drop channel, triggering information feedback to the control main board to control the driving motor to stop rotating, which can effectively protect the cat from being pinched by the fully automatic cat litter box.
[0024] like Figure 1-4As shown, the anti-pinch protection structure 12 includes a micro-motion sensor 13 and a trigger plate 14. The micro-motion sensor 13 is arranged on the outer surface of the cat litter box main body 1 and is located in the feces drop channel 11. The trigger plate 14 is located outside the micro-motion sensor 13 and is fixedly connected to the cat litter box main body 1. The micro-motion sensor 13 and the trigger plate 14 are adapted to each other. The micro-motion sensor 13 is feedback-connected to the control main board. A soft rubber sleeve 15 is further arranged between the micro-motion sensor 13 and the trigger plate 14. The soft rubber sleeve 15 and the trigger plate 14 enclose a closed space. The micro-motion sensor 13 is located in the closed space. The manufacturing material of the soft rubber sleeve 15 is soft rubber, such as silicone or thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber; a group of infrared detection sensors 16 are respectively arranged at the opening and tail of the cat litter bin 2 of the cat litter box main body 1, and both groups of infrared detection sensors 16 are feedback-connected to the control main board. In this embodiment, when the fully automatic cat litter box starts working, if it is detected that a cat has entered the cat litter bin to defecate and has gone out, the control main board will control the drive motor to work and thereby drive the cat litter bin to rotate, and the cat litter falls into the temporary storage space for the cat litter through the filter, and the cat feces falls into the feces collection channel through the cat litter bin, and then falls into the feces collection bin. The user can remove the feces collection bin regularly to clean the cat feces; if the cat falls into the feces collection channel, it will touch the trigger plate and then touch the micro-motion sensor, and the trigger information will be fed back to the control main board to control the drive motor to stop rotating.
