The first ring 101 of the first turntable 2 has a scraping plate 4 and a combing tooth 5 at the end of each combing component 3. The scraping plate 4 has multiple scraping holes, and the combing tooth 5 passes through the scraping holes. The edge of the scraping plate 4 rests against the inner edge of the first turntable 2. The combing diameter changing mechanism is arranged between the multiple combing components 3 to drive the multiple combing components 3 to slide synchronously radially relative to the first turntable 2. The front end of the first suction tube 6 extends into the first ring 101 and faces the inner edge of the first turntable 2. The rear end of the first suction tube 6 is directly or indirectly connected to a negative pressure device 7.
[0035] The automatic grooming and pet hair removal device of this utility model is installed in places or on objects frequently used by pets. Multiple rollers 21 are circumferentially arranged on the support 1. The inner edge of the first turntable 2 is axially aligned with the first circumference 101 of the support 1, serving as a passageway for the pet. The outer edge of the first turntable 2 has an annular folded edge, which rolls in cooperation with each roller 21, allowing the first turntable 2 to rotate on the support 1 under the drive of the turntable drive mechanism. Four radially sliding components are mounted on the first turntable 2. The end of the grooming component 3 is provided with a scraping plate 4 and grooming teeth 5, which can extend into the channel of the inner edge of the first turntable 2; an end face 18 can also be connected to the support 1, the end face 18 covers the first turntable 2, the turntable drive mechanism, the grooming component 3 and the grooming diameter changing mechanism, and a second ring 1801 is provided on the end face 18. The second ring 1801 is circumferentially aligned with the first ring 101. The first ring 101, the inner edge of the first turntable 2 and the second ring 1801 form a pet passage. As the pet passes through the passage, its fur is combed by the comb teeth 5, leaving the combed pet hair on the comb teeth 5. After the pet passes through the passage, the combing diameter changing mechanism drives the four combing parts 3 to retract radially. The scraping plate 4 retracts to the inner edge of the first turntable 2 and is stopped from retracting.
