[0007] In one embodiment, the cat teasing ball further comprises an actuating member attached inside the shell, which is drivingly coupled with at least one of the at least one rotating shaft.

[0008] In one embodiment, at least one of the at least one rotating shaft is a gear shaft.

[0009] In one embodiment, the actuating member comprises a motor attached inside the shell and a gear set, the motor being drivingly coupled with at least one of the at least one rotating shaft through the gear set.

[0010] In one embodiment, the end portion of the at least one rotating shaft is polygonal in cross-section in the radial direction.

[0011] In one embodiment, the cat teasing ball further comprises a soft rubber sleeve detachably attached to the surface of the shell.

[0012] In one embodiment, the annular member has a connecting member adapted to releasably connect the annular member to other components.

[0013] In one embodiment, the connecting member includes a connecting hole defined on the annular member and a connecting portion surrounding the surface of the annular member.

[0014] In one embodiment, the connecting portion protrudes outward or is recessed inward from the surface of the annular member.

[0015] In one embodiment, the annular member is generally a semi-circular or circular ring, and in another embodiment, when the annular member is generally circular, the annular member has a break.

[0016] In summary, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the first and second protrusions of the cat teaser ball form multiple layers of protection for the end portion of the rotating shaft, which can prevent pet hair from directly wrapping around the rotating shaft, effectively prevent hair from getting stuck at the connection between the rotating shaft and the shell, and ensure the continuous and stable operation of the cat teaser ball.

[0022] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention. Example 1

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the cat toy ball disclosed in this embodiment includes a housing 1, which includes two interconnected rotating shafts 10 and 11. The end portions of the rotating shafts 10 and 11 are defined outside the housing 1. An annular member 6 surrounds the housing 1 and is attached to the end portions of the rotating shafts 10 and 11. Two first protrusions 2 and 3 surround the end portions of the rotating shafts 10 and 11 and are defined on the housing 1. Two second protrusions 4 and 5 surround the end portions of the rotating shafts 10 and 11 and are defined on the annular member 6. The first protrusion 2 is defined outside the second protrusion 4, and the first protrusion 3 is defined outside the second protrusion 5. Thus, the first protrusions 2 and 3 and the second protrusions 4 and 5 can form a multi-layer protection for the end portions of the rotating shafts 10 and 11, which can prevent pet hair from directly wrapping around the rotating shafts 10 and 11, effectively preventing hair from getting stuck at the connection between the rotating shafts 10 and 11 and the housing 1, and ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the cat toy ball.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the annular part 6 is roughly a semi-circular ring, and the semi-circular annular part 6 is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, the cat-teasing ball also includes an actuating component attached to the housing 1. The actuating component is tractably connected to the rotating shaft 11, which is a gear shaft. The actuating component drives the ring 6 to rotate and touch the ground through the rotating shafts 10 and 11. At this time, the ground applies resistance to the ring 6, which in turn reacts on the housing 1, allowing the housing 1 to roll irregularly on the ground, thus achieving a playful effect.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the actuating components include a motor and a gear set attached to the housing 1. The motor is tractably connected to the rotating shaft 11 (gear shaft) via the gear set. This transmission method is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the radial cross-section of the end portions of the shafts 10 and 11 is polygonal, such as a triangle, quadrilateral, or pentagon. This prevents relative rotation between the shafts 10 and 11 and the annular component 6, allowing for better torque transfer and more stable power transmission.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the cat toy ball also includes a soft rubber sleeve 7 that is detachably attached to the surface of the housing 1. The soft rubber sleeve 7 improves the cat toy ball's grip and protects the housing 1 from damage.

[0029] like Figure 1As shown, the annular part 6 has a connecting member adapted to releasably connect the annular part 6 to other components. The connecting member includes a connecting hole 60 defined on the annular part 6 and a connecting portion 61 surrounding the surface of the annular part 6. The connecting portion 61 protrudes outward from the surface of the annular part 6. For example, a rope can be connected to the annular part 6 through the connecting hole 60 to mimic an animal tail, or a plush item can be connected to the annular part 6 through the connecting portion 61, thereby attracting the attention of pets and increasing the playability of the cat toy. Example 2

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, unlike Embodiment 1, the cat-teasing ball disclosed in this embodiment has an annular part 6 that is roughly circular. Therefore, the annular part 6 has a break portion 62, which is to facilitate the installation of the annular part 6 on the rotating shafts 10 and 11 or to remove it from the rotating shafts 10 and 11.

[0031] like Figure 4 As shown, the connecting part 61 is recessed inward from the surface of the annular part 6, and the effect of the connecting part 61 is the same as that in Embodiment 1 above.

[0032] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, various equivalent transformations can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention, and all such equivalent transformations fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
