[0028] By turning the knobs 5 on either side of the upper housing 2 and the locking blocks 6 on either side of the lower basin 3, the upper housing 2 and lower basin 3 are tightly engaged, achieving a removable connection. This design greatly simplifies the assembly and disassembly process, making the litter box easily disassembled and assembled without the need for complex tools or a significant amount of time. Whether it's daily cleaning and maintenance, or deep cleaning or changing the litter inside the litter box, it becomes extremely convenient and quick.

[0029] The knob member 5 includes a knob 7 and a rotating end 8 for mounting the knob 7. A locking groove 9 is extended from one end of the knob 7 to engage with the locking block 6. A limiting tooth 10 is provided in the locking groove 9 to engage with the locking block 6, and a positioning concave point 11 is arranged on the side wall of the locking groove 9 along the rotation direction. A rotating notch 12 is provided on the locking groove 9 along the rotation direction of the locking block 6.

[0030] The locking block 6 is provided with a positioning protrusion 13 corresponding to the positioning concave point 11. The locking block 6 is inserted into the locking groove 9 along the rotating notch 12 by rotating the knob 7, and the positioning concave point 11 and the positioning protrusion 13 are positioned and engaged with the limiting tooth 10.

[0031] The locking groove 9 of the knob 5 is provided with a retaining tooth 10, which provides a strong fastening force when engaged with the locking block 6. Furthermore, the positioning recesses 11 on the sidewalls of the locking groove 9 cooperate with the positioning protrusions 13 on the locking block 6, further enhancing the stability of the connection. During use, even if the litter box is subjected to external impact or the activities of a pet, the connection between the upper shell 2 and the lower bowl 3 remains secure and reliable, preventing loosening or separation, thus ensuring the normal use and safety of the litter box.

[0032] The upper shell 2 is provided with a movable door assembly 14 . An inlet and outlet opening 17 is provided between the upper shell 2 and the lower basin 3 . The movable door assembly 14 is disposed in the inlet and outlet opening 17 and is rotatably connected to the upper shell 2 .

[0033] The movable door assembly 14 includes a first movable door 15 rotatably connected to the upper shell 2 and a second movable door 16 rotatably connected to the first movable door 15. The first movable door 15 is horizontally arranged at the upper end of the movable opening and is rotatably connected to the upper shell 2. The second movable door 16 is vertically arranged in the movable opening and is rotatably connected to the first movable door 15.

[0034] A movable door assembly 14 is provided at the entrance and exit opening 17 between the upper shell 2 and the lower basin 3. This assembly comprises a first, horizontal movable door 15 pivotally connected to the upper shell 2 and a second, vertical movable door 16 pivotally connected to the first movable door 15. This structural design takes into account the ingress and egress habits of pets, allowing them to freely enter and exit the litter box while effectively preventing litter from being carried out when entering and exiting. This reduces litter scattering in the surrounding environment and maintains a clean and tidy interior.

[0035] A deodorizing chamber 18 is arranged at any position on the inner wall of the upper shell 2. A rotatably connected chamber cover 19 is provided on the deodorizing chamber 18. The chamber cover 19 is provided with a plurality of through holes for deodorizing and dissipating odors.

[0036] A deodorizing chamber 18 is positioned at any location on the inner wall of the upper housing 2, and a rotatably connected chamber lid 19 is attached to the chamber. Deodorizing items, such as activated carbon or deodorizer, can be conveniently placed in the chamber by opening the lid 19. The deodorizing chamber 18 continuously and effectively absorbs and removes odors generated during litter box use, improving the indoor air environment and creating a fresher and more comfortable living space for pets and their owners.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, by rotating the knob 5 and engaging the locking block 6, the upper shell 2 and the lower basin 3 are detachably connected, which greatly simplifies the disassembly and assembly process and facilitates cleaning and maintenance. Secondly, the movable door assembly 14 of the inlet and outlet is optimized, and a structure composed of a first movable door 15 and a second movable door 16 is adopted, which can not only ensure the convenience of pets entering and exiting, but also effectively reduce the amount of cat litter brought out. Furthermore, a deodorizing bin 18 is added to the inner wall of the upper shell 2, and is equipped with a rotatable bin cover 19, which is convenient for placing deodorizing items and enhancing the deodorizing effect; it saves time and energy and facilitates regular and thorough cleaning of the cat litter box. The connection is stable and reliable, avoiding safety hazards and inconvenience caused by loose connections during use. The design of the movable door assembly 14 can effectively control the outflow of cat litter and keep the surrounding environment clean and tidy. The setting of the deodorizing bin 18 improves the use environment and reduces the impact of odor on indoor air.

[0038] In this embodiment 2,

[0039] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, during assembly, first place the upper housing 2 over the upper end of the lower basin 3. Then, rotate the knob 7 to engage the locking groove 9 along the rotation notch 12 of the locking block 6. The locking teeth 10 engage the locking block 6, and the positioning is achieved by the cooperation of the positioning recess 11 and the positioning protrusion 13, thereby removably connecting the upper housing 2 to the upper end of the lower basin 3. During disassembly, the pet can enter and exit the litter box by simply rotating the opening 17. The movable door assembly 14 at the opening 17 has a first movable door 15 disposed horizontally at the upper end of the opening and rotatably connected to the upper housing 2. The second movable door 16 is vertically disposed within the opening and rotatably connected to the first movable door 15, allowing for flexible opening and closing, facilitating pet entry and exit while reducing litter carryover. The deodorizing chamber 18 on the inner wall of the upper housing 2 is rotatably connected to the chamber cover 19, which is filled with deodorizing items to remove odors. The through-holes arranged in the chamber cover 19 increase the contact area between the deodorizing items and the air, improving the deodorizing effect.
