Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pet supplies and relates to a waste collection device, specifically a pet waste collection device that is easy to fold and unfold. Background Technology

[0002] Pet poop sacks are devices that facilitate the collection of pet feces. When walking the dog, the owner needs to quickly unfold the poop sack when the dog needs to relieve itself. If the poop sack is not unfolded in time, the pet's feces will fall to the ground, increasing the burden on the pet owner to clean up the feces.

[0003] In 2023, the applicant filed a patent application with publication number CN220140496U, entitled "A Foldable Pet Waste Collection Device Based on Sliding Sleeve Connection." This patent discloses a locking unit and a tension spring connection structure. Specifically, the main tube provides axial sliding guidance for the main sliding sleeve. An elongated hole in the main tube allows the tension connecting block connected to the main sliding sleeve to extend into the main tube. The tension spring inside the main tube enables the spring tension extension function of the translational extension component. Furthermore, the tension spring is located inside the main tube to prevent corrosion and damage. Finally, a locking rod is fixed to the tension connecting block. The locking rod's axially limited connection to the sloping locking block at the bottom of the locking rod of the locking unit via a slope groove achieves axial locking of the main sliding sleeve under tension, i.e., the reset locking function after the translational extension component has shifted in opposite directions.

[0004] The aforementioned patented product requires the telescopic rod to be extended first, followed by raising the locking rod to release the locking limit, thereby resetting the tension spring and opening the bag fitted on the X-hinged arm. This process is cumbersome and hinders the timely collection of pet waste.

[0005] In addition, when the above-mentioned patented products are folded and stored, the folding and storage effect is poor because the slope locking block limits the slope groove. After the limit is set, the X-hinged arm cannot be tightened, and the loose state is not conducive to storage. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a pet waste collection device that is quick to unfold, has a good folding and storage effect, is easy to use, easy to process, and easy to implement.

[0007] The technical problem solved by this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0008] A pet waste collection device that is easy to fold and unfold includes a main body, X-hinged arms, a translational extension mechanism, and a telescopic rod. The translational extension mechanism is connected to both sides of the main body via the X-hinged arms. A hinge seat is provided at the rear end of the main body, and the telescopic rod is hinged to the hinge seat. The device is characterized by further including a storage limiting clamp, which consists of clamping pieces, connecting screws, and nuts. The clamping pieces are integrally formed by bending, including a first vertical part, a horizontal part bent horizontally at the root of the first vertical part, and a second vertical part bent vertically downward at the root of the horizontal part. The first vertical part has an arc-shaped clamping groove, and connecting holes are provided at both ends of the arc-shaped clamping groove. The two clamping pieces are engaged with the telescopic rod through the arc-shaped clamping groove and the connecting screws and nuts. The two second vertical parts form clamping claws, and the two clamping pieces are clamped to the outside of the two sliding sleeves of the translational extension mechanism.

[0009] Furthermore, the main body mechanism includes a main tube, a main fixing sleeve, a main sliding sleeve, a tension spring, and a slider. The main fixing sleeve is installed at the front end of the main tube, and a hinge seat is installed at the rear end of the main tube. The main sliding sleeve is slidably installed on the main tube. A sliding elongated hole is provided at the rear position on the upper end surface of the main tube. A tension spring is provided inside the main tube. One end of the tension spring is connected to the side of the main fixing sleeve, and the other end of the tension spring is connected to the slider. The slider and the main sliding sleeve are connected and fixed by a pin. One end of the X-hinged arm is hinged to the main fixing sleeve, and the other end of the X-hinged arm is hinged to the main sliding sleeve.

[0010] Furthermore, the translational extension mechanism includes a secondary rod, a secondary fixed sleeve, and a secondary sliding sleeve. The secondary rods are arranged parallel to each other at intervals on both sides of the main tube. The secondary fixed sleeve is installed at the front end of the secondary rod, and the secondary sliding sleeve is slidably installed on the secondary rod. A limiting cap for limiting the secondary sliding sleeve is provided at the rear end of the secondary rod. One end of the X-hinged arm is hinged to the secondary fixed sleeve, and the other end is hinged to the secondary sliding sleeve.

[0011] The advantages and positive effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. This foldable and unfoldable pet waste collection device simplifies the locking structure and operation steps by replacing the existing locking and limiting structure, which uses a sloped locking block and a sloped groove on a locking rod, with a locking structure that directly clamps and limits the folded X-hinged arm using a storage limiting clip. This not only improves storage efficiency and effectiveness but also reduces processing costs by minimizing the processing of related parts. Since the storage limiting clip is mounted on the telescopic rod, when the telescopic rod is rotated open, the storage limiting clip separates from the secondary sliding sleeve, and the covering bag is opened, greatly saving the time required to open the bag and making operation convenient.

[0013] 2. This utility model is scientifically and rationally designed, and has the advantages of quick unfolding, good folding and storage effect, convenient use, convenient processing and easy realization. It is a highly innovative pet waste collection device that is easy to fold and unfold. Attached Figure Description

In use, the bag mounting rods are inserted into the openings on both sides of the bag, the edge of the bag wraps the end of the bag mounting rod, and the bag is fixed in the mounting groove by the clamping claw. After collecting the feces, the clamping claw is opened and the bag without rod is discarded.

[0032] Use of pole-loaded bags:

[0033] To facilitate use by the elderly or to reduce the steps involved in assembling the cover bag with the cover bag mounting rod, a cover bag with a rod has been designed.

[0034] The bag is equipped with bag mounting rods on both sides. When in use, the bag mounting rods are inserted into the two auxiliary fixing sleeves of this utility model. The edge of the bag is secured in the mounting groove by the locking claws. After use, the locking claws are opened and the bag with the rods is discarded directly.

[0035] Although embodiments and drawings of the present invention have been disclosed for illustrative purposes, those skilled in the art will understand that various substitutions, variations and modifications are possible without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention and the appended claims. Therefore, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the contents disclosed in the embodiments and drawings.
