Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a high-performance cat litter box support, belonging to the field of packaging box technology. Background Technology

[0002] Cat litter boxes are cardboard boxes used to package cat litter. These boxes are typically made of sturdy cardboard and include single-layer and multi-layer cardboard boxes. They come in various sizes and models to accommodate different brands and types of cat litter packaging. Existing boxes can also often be used as litter bowls.

[0003] However, when cat litter boxes are used as litter bowls, they lack internal support structures. When the packaging box is subjected to external pressure, the items inside are easily squeezed, deformed, or moved, making these litter boxes very easy to damage. Collapsed litter boxes may also cause litter leakage. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a strong support for the cat litter box, which solves the problem that the cat litter box is prone to denting after being squeezed in the prior art.

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is achieved by the following technical solution: a strong support cat litter box, including a litter box body, a support component disposed in the inner cavity of the litter box body, and a litter box cover sleeved on the litter box;

[0006] A trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard is provided on the inner side wall of the sand box body along its length.

[0007] The support component includes a snap-fit ​​edge and a support edge connected to the snap-fit ​​edge. The snap-fit ​​edge and the support edge are connected to each other to form an annular rectangular frame. The annular rectangular frame is connected to the inner cavity bottom plate of the sand box body. The snap-fit ​​edge is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove for snapping with the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the overall support strength of the litter box can be improved. Through the special connection method between the support components and the litter box body, the litter box can maintain a relatively stable state after assembly, is not prone to dents, and can withstand greater impact. At the same time, due to the use of a mortise and tenon structure-like snap-fit ​​method, the connection between the litter box cover and the litter box body is tighter, and it is less likely that the litter box cover and the litter box body will separate due to movement and shaking, resulting in the internal cat litter being exposed to the air.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: the support assembly includes a support rod disposed on the upper surface of the annular rectangular frame, and triangular locking blocks are disposed on both sides of the bottom of the support rod, and triangular holes for engaging the triangular locking blocks are disposed on the four corners of the bottom of the sand box body.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the support component can be further limited to prevent it from moving up and down due to the shaking of the box. At the same time, the triangular locking block is designed with a retractable structure that can be pressed. This allows the triangular locking component to be pressed into the support rod by the inner wall of the sand box when the support component is installed into the inner cavity of the sand box. This prevents the triangular locking block from interfering with the inner wall of the sand box and avoids damage to the sand box body due to assembly. After the support component is inserted into the slot at the bottom of the inner cavity of the sand box body, the position of the triangular locking block corresponds exactly to the position of the triangular hole. The triangular locking block automatically pops out and locks into the triangular hole. Through the engagement of the triangular locking block and the triangular hole, the support component is prevented from shaking up and down in the inner cavity of the sand box body.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: a slot is provided at the bottom of the sand box body for engaging the annular rectangular frame.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the slot, after the support component and the sand box body are installed, they can fit together with the bottom plate of the inner cavity of the sand box body, which can limit the support component and prevent the support component from shaking. This makes the connection between the two tighter and the overall support strength higher.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​blocks on the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard one and the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​blocks on the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard two are spaced apart.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the support strength of the side wall of the sand box body can be greatly improved. The trapezoidal snap-fit ​​blocks arranged at intervals can make the area of ​​the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​blocks covering the side wall of the sand box body larger, thereby making the longitudinal support strength of the side wall of the sand box body higher.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that: the cross-section of the support rod is triangular, and the two sides are attached to the inner wall of the sand box body.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the two sides of the support rod are attached to the inner wall of the litter box body, which enhances the connection strength between the support rod and the litter box body. This attached contact effectively prevents the support rod from moving or wobbling inside the litter box, thereby further improving the stability of the entire litter box structure. Compared to other shapes (such as circles or squares), the triangular cross-section support rod typically uses less material while maintaining the same strength. This helps reduce manufacturing costs and minimizes resource waste. Due to the stability of the triangular structure, this design allows the support rod to withstand greater pressure and load. Therefore, even when the litter box is full of cat litter, the support rod maintains its stability and reliability. The attachment design between the support rod and the inner wall of the litter box body also simplifies installation and disassembly.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that the depth of the slot is less than the height of the annular rectangular frame.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, after the support component is connected to the litter box body, it can form a lower groove on the bottom plate of the litter box body through the ring-shaped rectangular frame. After the cat litter is put into the inner cavity of the litter box body, it can be limited to the center position of the inner cavity of the litter box body under the guidance and limiting effect of the lower groove. At the same time, the lower groove can prevent the cat litter from shaking due to large displacement to a certain extent, making the storage of cat litter more stable.

[0019] The present invention is further configured such that: a trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard two is provided on the outer side wall of the sand box body in the length direction, and a snap-fit ​​groove two for snapping with the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard two is provided on the inner side wall of the sand box cover in the length direction.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard two and the snap-fit ​​groove two makes the closing and opening process of the sand box extremely convenient. Users simply align and snap the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard two and the snap-fit ​​groove two together to achieve a tight seal on the sand box. Similarly, the sand box lid can be easily opened with just a little force, making operation very convenient. The trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard two and the snap-fit ​​groove two are made of durable materials, capable of withstanding repeated snap-fit ​​and separation operations without easily being damaged. This ensures the service life of the sand box and reduces the user's maintenance costs.

[0021] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by setting the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block and the support component, the overall support strength of the cat litter box is greatly increased. The litter box body and the litter box cover are connected by a trapezoidal snap-fit ​​structure, making the overall connection tighter. The support component is slidably connected with the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block through the slot, and the vertical reverse limit is achieved by the triangular snap-fit ​​block, so that the support component and the litter box body are connected tightly enough. Thus, the litter box can maintain a relatively stable state after assembly, is not easy to dent, and can withstand greater impact. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To facilitate a clear understanding of the technical means, creative features, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with specific illustrations, further elaborates on this utility model.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a high-performance cat litter box includes a litter box body 1. The litter box body 1 includes a base plate, two length side plates connected to the base plate, and two width side plates connected to the base plate. A trapezoidal snap-fit ​​plate is set on the length side plates. The length side plates and width side plates are connected to each other and, together with the base plate, form the inner cavity of the litter box body 1. Through the special connection method between the support component 2 and the litter box body 1, the litter box as a whole can maintain a relatively stable state after assembly, is not easy to dent, and can withstand greater impact.

[0029] A trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 4 is provided on the inner sidewall along the length of the sand box body 1. A support component 2, located within the inner cavity of the sand box body 1, includes a snap-fit ​​edge 201 and a support edge 202 connected to the snap-fit ​​edge 201. The snap-fit ​​edge 201 and the support edge 202 are interconnected to form an annular rectangular frame. When installing the support component 2 with the sand box body 1, first, the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​block on the snap-fit ​​edge 201 is snapped into the slot 102 on the side. The outer wall of the annular rectangular frame is attached to the inner wall of the sand box body 1. Pushing downwards along the vertical direction of the side, the support component 2 is pushed to the bottom of the inner cavity of the sand box body 1. The annular rectangular frame is then snapped into the slot 102 at the bottom of the sand box. This ensures that when the support component is installed into the inner cavity of the sand box body 1, the triangular snap-fit ​​piece can be pressed inside the support rod 203 by the inner wall of the sand box, preventing significant interference between the triangular snap-fit ​​piece and the inner wall of the sand box, thus avoiding damage to the sand box body 1 during assembly.

[0030] The support assembly 2 also includes a support rod 203 disposed on the upper surface of the annular rectangular frame. The two sides of the bottom of the support rod 203 are provided with triangular locking blocks 204 that can be pressed inward. The four corners of the bottom of the sand box body 1 are provided with triangular holes 101 for engaging the triangular locking blocks 204.

[0031] After the support component 2 is inserted into the slot 102, the triangular block 204 on the support rod 203 loses its restraint from the inner wall of the sand box body 1, automatically pops out and inserts into the triangular hole 101. The annular rectangular frame is connected to the bottom plate of the inner cavity of the sand box body 1. The snap-fit ​​edge 201 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 2011 for snap-fitting with the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 4. The sand box cover 3 is fitted on the sand box. By snapping the triangular block into the triangular hole 101, the support component 2 is prevented from shaking up and down in the inner cavity of the sand box body 1.

[0032] Because of the interlocking method similar to mortise and tenon structure, the connection between the litter box cover 3 and the litter box body 1 is tighter, and it is less likely that the litter box cover 3 and the litter box body 1 will separate due to movement and shaking, resulting in the internal cat litter being exposed to the air.

[0033] like Figure 2As shown, the support rod 203 has a triangular cross-section, with its two sides attached to the inner wall of the litter box body 1. The depth of the slot 102 is less than the height of the annular rectangular frame. Compared to other shapes (such as circles or squares), the triangular cross-section support rod 203 can typically use less material while maintaining the same strength. This helps reduce manufacturing costs and resource waste. It also effectively reduces the overall weight of the litter box, allowing the support component 2, after being connected to the litter box body 1, to form a recessed groove on the bottom plate of the litter box body 1 through the annular rectangular frame. After the litter is placed into the inner cavity of the litter box body 1, it can be confined to the center position of the inner cavity of the litter box body 1 under the guidance and limiting effect of the recessed groove. At the same time, the small recessed groove can prevent the litter from shifting or shaking to a certain extent, making the storage of the litter more stable.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the sand box body 1 is provided with a slot 102 for engaging the annular rectangular frame. The slot 102 allows the support component 2 to fit against the bottom plate of the inner cavity of the sand box body 1 after the support component 2 is installed. This limits the position of the support component 2, prevents it from shaking, and makes the connection between the two tighter, resulting in higher overall support strength.

[0035] The trapezoidal snap-fit ​​blocks on trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 4 and trapezoidal snap-fit ​​blocks on trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 5 are spaced apart, which can greatly improve the support strength of the side wall of the sand box body 1. The spaced trapezoidal snap-fit ​​blocks can make the area of ​​trapezoidal snap-fit ​​blocks covering the side wall of the sand box body 1 larger, thereby making the longitudinal support strength of the side wall of the sand box body 1 higher.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, a trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 2 5 is provided on the outer side wall of the sand box body 1 along its length, and a snap-fit ​​groove 2 301 for snapping with the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 2 5 is provided on the inner side wall of the sand box cover 3 along its length.

[0037] The trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 25 and snap-fit ​​groove 201 make the closing and opening of the sand box extremely convenient. Users simply align and snap the trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 25 and snap-fit ​​groove 201 together to achieve a tight seal on the sand box. Similarly, the sand box lid 3 can be easily opened with just a little force, making operation very convenient. The trapezoidal snap-fit ​​cardboard 25 and snap-fit ​​groove 201 are made of durable materials, capable of withstanding repeated snap-fit ​​and separation operations without damage. This ensures the lifespan of the sand box and reduces user maintenance costs.

[0038] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. All such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
