DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present invention provides a technical solution: an intelligent cat litter box;

[0025] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, it includes a cat litter box 1. An infrared sensor 2 is provided on one side of the cat litter box 1. The infrared sensor 2 is fixed to the top of the opening end of the cat litter box 1. A control mechanism 3 is provided inside the cat litter box 1. After the cat excretes, the control mechanism 3 closes the opening end of the cat litter box 1 to clean the odor and feces inside the cat litter box 1. Among them, the control mechanism 3 includes a connecting plate 301 fixed to one side of the cat litter box 1. A PLC controller is provided on one side of the cat litter box 1. The PLC controller is electrically connected to a servo motor 302. The servo motor 302 is fixed inside the connecting plate 301. One end of a conversion plate 303 penetrates through the inside of the connecting plate 301 and is fixed to the output end of the servo motor 302. The length of the conversion plate 303 is the same as the distance from the connecting plate 301 to the cat litter box 1. The servo motor 302 inside the connecting plate 301 drives the conversion plate 303 on one side to close and open the entrance end of the cat litter box 1.

[0026] In the above solution, when the infrared sensor 2 senses that there is a cat near the cat litter box 1, the conversion plate 303 is rotated to the ground. At this time, the conversion plate 303 is used as a pedal. When the cat leaves after excretion, the servo motor 302 drives the conversion plate 303 to rotate to close the opening end of the cat litter box 1. At this time, the conversion plate 303 is used as a door panel to prevent the odor of cat feces from spreading.

[0027] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, electric rods 306 are provided on both sides inside the cat litter box 1. The PLC controller is electrically connected to the electric rods 306 on both sides. The output end of one electric rod 306 is fixed to one end of a filter screen 307. A baffle is provided on the opening side of a channel 310. The other side is in communication with one side of a sewage collection box 311. The electric rod 306 drives the filter screen 307 on one side to move vertically to the entrance end of the channel 310.

[0028] In the above solution, the electric rod 306 drives the filter screen 307 at one end to move vertically to the opening position of the channel 310, and the other end of the channel 310 is in communication with the sewage collection box 311, facilitating the cat feces to directly enter the sewage collection box 311 along the filter screen 307 and the channel 310 for direct cleaning.

[0029] As Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, further, an external rod 309 is provided on one side of the electric rod 306 on the other side. One end of the internal rod 308 is fixed to the filter screen 307, and the other end is sleeved inside the external rod 309. The movement of the external rod 309 drives the internal rod 308 to horizontally expand and contract inside the external rod 309.

[0030] In the above further solution, after detecting that the cat leaves the litter box 1, one side of the electric rod 306 drives one end of the filter screen 307 to rise to the opening end of the channel 310. Then, the other end of the filter screen 307 continues to move upward following the electric rod 306 on the other side. At the same time, the internal rod 308 expands and contracts inside the external rod 309. At this time, the filter screen 307 is inclined and communicates with the channel 310. The cat feces enter the channel 310 along the inclined filter screen 307 and then enter the sewage collection box 311. After cleaning, the electric rods 306 on both sides drive the filter screen 307 to be straightened to its original position.

[0031] As Figure 1 shown, an activated carbon fiber felt 305 is provided inside the litter box 1. The activated carbon fiber felt 305 is arranged on the inner top surface and one side of the litter box 1. The magnet 304 fixes the position of the activated carbon fiber felt 305 by adsorbing to the inner wall of the litter box 1. The magnet 304 on one side of the activated carbon fiber felt 305 fixes the position of the activated carbon fiber felt 305. The magnet 304 fixes the position of the activated carbon fiber felt 305, which is convenient for cleaning and replacing the activated carbon fiber felt 305. The activated carbon fiber felt 305 adsorbs the fecal odor inside the litter box 1.

[0032] As Figure 1 shown, a sewage collection box 311 is provided at the bottom end of the litter box 1. A groove is provided at the bottom end of the litter box 1. The sewage collection box 311 is sleeved inside the groove. One end of the push plate 312 penetrates the inner wall of the litter box 1, and one end of the push plate 312 is fixed to the baffle 313. The other end of the baffle 313 penetrates the bottom end of the litter box 1. The push plate 312 on one side of the litter box 1 drives the baffle 313 to open and close the inlet end of the sewage collection box 311. By pushing the push plate 312, the push plate 312 drives the baffle 313 to move vertically, and the sewage collection box 311 is taken out from the groove.

[0033] As Figure 1 and Figure 4 shown, further, a plug rod 314 is provided at one end of the baffle 313. A slot 315 is provided on one side of the bottom end of the litter box 1 corresponding to the plug rod 314. The plug rod 314 coincides with the slot 315, and the plug rod 314 is engaged with the slot 315 inside the litter box 1 to fix the position of the baffle 313.

[0034] In the above further solution, the baffle 313 drives the insertion rod 314 at one end to move. The insertion rod 314 is connected and engaged with the slot 315 to fix the position of the baffle 313, thereby fixing the position of the sewage collection box 311, and preventing the sewage collection box 311 from disengaging from the bottom end of the litter box 1 when moving or when the sewage collection box 311 does not need to be cleaned.
