[0002] Cat litter is an object used by cat owners to bury feces and urine. It has good water absorption and is generally used together with a cat litter box (or cat toilet). An appropriate amount of cat litter is poured into the cat litter box. When a trained cat needs to defecate, it will go into the cat litter box and deposit cat feces on it. After the existing cat litter is produced and packaged, it needs to be transported by a transmission belt conveyor for the next processing step.

[0003] Most cat litter production workshops need to transport raw materials to the next mechanical processing port through a screw conveyor, so it is necessary to produce a screw conveyor. A screw conveyor is very necessary.
