Description

Technical Field

[0002] As people's living standards improve, pets such as cats and dogs are entering thousands of households, adding a lot of color to people's lives. At the same time, it has also spurred the development of many pet products, among which cat litter boxes are a typical example. A litter box is filled with litter, because cats have the habit of burying their feces. However, if the litter box is not cleaned in time, a lot of bacteria will grow, and then ferment to produce a lot of toxic and harmful gases such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide, as well as odors, which seriously threaten the health of pets and the health of the air in the home.

[0003] However, traditional litter boxes have the following drawbacks:

[0004] (1) Existing automatic litter boxes can automatically separate and collect cat feces, which can solve the risk of odor and toxic and harmful gases caused by failure to clean in time to a certain extent. However, after a certain period of use, or if the cat litter in the garbage bag is not cleaned in time, it will also cause odor or generate toxic and harmful gases, posing a hidden danger to the air quality safety of pets and families.

[0005] (2) Currently, the cleaning time of cat litter boxes on the market depends on people's smell. Since everyone's sense of smell is different, many times they are not cleaned in time, which produces a lot of toxic and harmful gases. Utility Model Content
