[0002] A cat litter box is one of the must-have items for a cat-raising household.

[0003] It is mainly used for cat excretion. After defecating in the litter box, cats can bury the excrement with their paws to keep the surrounding environment relatively clean.

[0004] There are many types of cat litter boxes, such as:

[0005] Open cat litter box: simple structure, easy for cats to get in and out, but the litter can easily be taken out.

[0006] Closed cat litter box: can reduce the spread of odor and the carrying out of cat litter to a certain extent, and provide a relatively private space for cats.

[0007] There are generally two types of existing cat litter boxes. One type uses a sieve plate to automatically filter out cat feces, collects the waste in a sealed box, and manually takes it out and throws it away regularly. This method of storing cat feces in a sealed box has defects. Since the feces of several days are piled together, it is very unhygienic and there will be odor. Therefore, this method has the problems of poor hygiene and incomplete odor sealing. Utility Model Content

[0052] The bottom shell 1 is hemispherical and has a plane at the bottom. A rotating assembly 5 is fixed inside the bottom shell 1.

[0053] The rotating assembly 5 has a rotatable cat litter tray 51, on which a feces collecting assembly 7 is arranged;

[0054] The feces collection assembly 7 has comb teeth 77 that fit the cat litter tray 51; the comb teeth 77 are provided in plurality and arranged in a rectangular array at the bottom of the sliding frame 71;

[0055] A slide groove 76 is provided on one side of the sliding frame 71 for the collection rake 75 to pass through; the collection rake 75 is fixedly connected to the second sliding seat 74 , and the lower end of the collection rake 75 is in contact with the upper surface of the cat litter tray 51 .

[0056] By adopting the above technical solution, when in use, the cat litter is first evenly spread on the cat litter tray 51. After the cat defecates, the cat litter tray 51 can rotate. During the rotation, the comb teeth 77 can intercept the clumped cat litter and feces. After the cat litter tray 51 rotates one circle, all the clumped cat litter and feces will gather on one side of the comb teeth 77. At this time, the collecting rake 75 slides along the sliding frame 71 toward the notch direction of the cat litter tray 51, so that the clumped cat litter and feces can be cleaned, and the cat litter on the cat litter tray 51 is always in an evenly spread state, and there is no need to readjust it; it is very convenient to use.

[0057] In this embodiment, the second slide seat 74 slides in the inner cavity of the sliding frame 71 and is threadedly connected to the screw rod 72. Both ends of the screw rod 72 are connected to the sliding frame 71 through bearings, and one end of the screw rod 72 is also connected to the driving motor 73 fixed at the outer end of the sliding frame 71.

[0058] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving motor 73 drives the screw rod 72 to rotate, and the second slide seat 74 can convert the rotational motion of the screw rod 72 into linear motion, thereby driving the collecting rake 75 to clean the feces.

[0059] In this embodiment, a slot is provided on one side of the cat litter tray 51 to facilitate the discharge of cat litter; the outer ring of the cat litter tray 51 is slidably connected to the protective ring 4; the protective ring 4 is fixed to the bottom shell 1, and the protective ring 4 has an opening at the slot of the cat litter tray 51.

[0060] By adopting the above technical solution, the provision of the protection ring 4 can provide protection when the cat litter tray 51 rotates, thereby preventing the cat litter from falling from the gap between the cat litter tray 51 and the bottom shell 1.

[0061] In this embodiment, the length of the sliding frame 71 is greater than the radius of the cat litter tray 51, so that when the cat litter tray 51 rotates, the feces can be intercepted and collected as much as possible; one end of the sliding frame 71 is located at the center point of the cat litter tray 51, and the other end extends to the opening of the protective ring 4; a motor seat 79 is fixed above the opening of the protective ring 4, and an angle adjustment motor 78 is fixed on the motor seat 79; the output shaft of the angle adjustment motor 78 is fixed to the sliding frame 71.

[0062] By adopting the above technical solution, after the clumped cat litter or feces are cleaned, the angle adjustment motor 78 drives the sliding frame 71 to deflect to one side, which can avoid affecting the use of the cat.

[0063] In this embodiment, a collection box 8 is provided below a slot for discharging cat litter on one side of the cat litter tray 51 , and the collection box 8 is drawable with the bottom shell 1 .

[0064] By adopting the above technical solution, the feces scraped by the collecting rake 75 will fall into the collecting box 8, which is convenient for subsequent unified processing.

[0065] In this embodiment, an upper spherical shell 2 is further provided above the bottom shell 1, and a circular opening 3 is obliquely opened on one side of the upper spherical shell 2 for the cat to enter.

[0066] In this embodiment, a gear ring 52 is fixed to the bottom of the cat litter tray 51, and a gear 53 is meshed and connected to the outer side of the gear ring 52; the gear 53 is mounted on a rotating motor 58, and the bottom of the rotating motor 58 is connected to the base 56 through a fixing plate.

[0067] Furthermore, a slip ring 54 fixed to the cat litter tray 51 is provided on the inner side of the gear ring 52 , and the slip ring 54 is slidably connected to three first slide seats 55 ; the first slide seats 55 are fixed on a fixed plate 57 , and a base 56 is fixed at the bottom of the fixed plate 57 .

[0068] By adopting the above technical solution, when no one is at home, the control system controls the angle adjustment motor 78 to move, and one end of the sliding frame 71 is located at the center point of the cat litter tray 51. Then, the rotating motor 58 drives the cat litter tray 51 to rotate under the cooperation of the gear 53 and the gear ring 52, and the slip ring 54 provided at the bottom of the cat litter tray 51 slides on the first slide seat 55.

[0069] With the cooperation of the feces collection component 7, automatic processing and collection of feces are realized, which effectively solves the technical problem that when the owner is not at home, the effect of regular cleaning cannot be achieved, resulting in the odor of cat excrement being dispersed.

[0070] As a further illustration of the above embodiment, the rotating motor 58, the angle adjustment motor 78 and the driving motor are all controlled by a control system; the control system includes a single chip microcomputer, the I / O port of which is connected to an infrared sensor, a driving module, a wireless transmission module and a storage module, wherein the driving module is used to control the rotating motor 58, the angle adjustment motor 78 and the driving motor; the infrared sensor 6 is arranged on the inner side of the circular opening 3 of the upper spherical shell 2, and is embedded above the bottom shell 1. The infrared sensor 6 is used to detect cats. When a cat enters the collector, the feces collection component 7 will not be controlled to operate.

[0071] Used for remote control via wireless transmission module.

[0072] This control system belongs to the prior art, and its principle is only briefly described here, and the specific circuit relationship is not repeated.

[0073] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when in use, cat litter is first evenly spread on the cat litter tray 51. After the cat excretes, the cat jumps out from the circular opening 3. The infrared sensor 6 transmits the sensing information to the control system and performs automatic cleaning operation; the control system controls the angle adjustment motor 78 to move, and one end of the sliding frame 71 is located at the center point of the cat litter tray 51. Then, the rotating motor 58 drives the cat litter tray 51 to rotate under the cooperation of the gear 53 and the gear ring 52. During the rotation, the comb teeth 77 can intercept the clumped cat litter and feces. After the cat litter tray 51 rotates one circle, all the clumped cat litter and feces will gather on one side of the comb teeth 77. At this time, the collecting rake member 75 slides along the sliding frame 71 toward the notch direction of the cat litter tray 51, so that the feces fall into the collecting box 8; the automatic processing and collection of feces is realized, and the technical problem that the owner is not at home and the effect of regular cleaning cannot be achieved, resulting in the odor of cat excrement drifting, is effectively solved.
