Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of animal hair collection devices, and more specifically, relates to an automatic animal hair collection device based on a flexible ring structure. Background Technology
[0002] Pets like cats and dogs typically shed heavily during specific seasons, and even at other times, they shed a lot of fur. Pet hair can stick to various objects indoors and onto people, affecting hygiene. If pets accidentally ingest the hair, it can also affect their digestion. Currently, there are two main ways to remove pet hair: The first is to use a lint brush to comb the pet's fur. This not only removes loose hair and prevents it from sticking to various items, but also promotes blood circulation, strengthens skin resistance, and relieves fatigue. However, manually combing a pet's fur is time-consuming and laborious, and many pets strongly resist manual hair removal, often resulting in a fight with their owners. The second method is to use tools such as vacuum cleaners to collect the shed pet hair. Because pet hair sheds frequently, this method requires frequent cleaning, and it is difficult to completely remove hair stuck to blankets, quilts, and sheets using vacuum cleaners. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention provides an automatic animal hair collection device based on a flexible ring structure, which can realize the automatic collection of animal hair through a combination of flexible structure and electrostatic adsorption.
[0004] This utility model discloses an automatic animal hair collection device based on a flexible ring structure, comprising: a flexible ring-shaped body with a hollow structure in the middle for an animal body to pass through; multiple pleated protrusions spaced apart on the inner wall of the hollow structure of the ring-shaped body, with recesses formed between adjacent pleated protrusions; multiple toothed protrusions located in the middle of the pleated protrusions for combing and removing animal hair; and an electrostatic adsorption component located at the connection between the pleated protrusions and the recesses for adsorbing the removed hair; wherein the surface of the electrostatic adsorption component is flush with the inner wall of the ring-shaped body to prevent hair from scattering.
[0005] As a further improvement of this utility model, the pleated protrusion has a raised portion extending toward the center of the hollow structure in the middle part to increase the contact area with animal hair.
[0006] As a further improvement of this utility model, the toothed protrusions are distributed circumferentially along the annular body, and their height matches the raised portion of the pleated protrusion.
[0007] As a further improvement of this utility model, the annular body is made of silicone or thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), and the pleated protrusions and recesses are integrally formed from flexible materials.
[0008] As a further improvement of this utility model, it also includes a shell, which is sleeved on the outside of the annular body and detachably connected to the annular body; one side of the shell is provided with a connecting part that matches the external hair collection component to form a chamber for collecting hair.
[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model, the open end of the external hair collection component is engaged with the connecting part of the outer shell, and the inner cavity of the hair collection component is connected to the hollow structure of the annular body.
[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model, the electrostatic adsorption element is embedded in the wall of the annular body, and its surface is flush with the inner wall of the annular body to achieve continuous adsorption of hair.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] By employing an alternating design of pleated protrusions and recesses in a flexible annular body, combined with direct adsorption by electrostatic adsorption components, this solution overcomes the problems of low efficiency in manual grooming, pet resistance, and difficulty in thoroughly collecting scattered hair found in existing technologies. The pleated protrusions efficiently detach hair by increasing the contact area, while the surface of the electrostatic adsorption component is flush with the inner wall of the annular body, ensuring stable adsorption of detached hair. The toothed protrusions further assist in grooming, improving overall collection efficiency. This solution achieves non-contact automated operation, reducing manual intervention and preventing secondary environmental pollution from hair. Attached Figure Description

[0019] Specific Implementation Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-4 An automatic animal hair collection device based on a flexible ring structure includes a housing 1 and a ring-shaped body 2. The housing 1 is fitted onto the outside of the ring-shaped body 2, and the housing 1 and the ring-shaped body 2 are detachably connected. One side of the housing 1 can be detachably connected to an outer hair-collecting component. In this embodiment, the outer hair-collecting component includes a connecting part that matches the side end of the housing 1. The connecting part is the open end of the hair-collecting component, so that the inner cavity of the hair-collecting component forms a chamber for collecting hair.
[0020] Specifically, the annular body 2 is made of silicone or TPU material, and a hollow section is provided in the middle of the annular body 2 to provide space for the animal's body to pass through. Multiple pleated protrusions 21 are spaced out on the inner wall of the hollow section of the annular body 2, and recesses 22 are formed between multiple adjacent pleated protrusions 21. The pleated protrusions 21 rise from both sides towards the center to form raised portions 211, which bulge along the middle of the annular body 2 towards the center of the hollow section, thereby increasing the contact area between the animal's fur and the annular body 2. Multiple toothed protrusions 23 protrude from the outer periphery of the raised portion 211 in the center of the annular body 2; these toothed protrusions 23 are used to comb the fur and detach it from the animal's body. Among them, electrostatic adsorption components 24 are provided at both ends of the connection between the pleated protrusion 21 and the recessed portion 22 along the central axis of the annular body 2. The electrostatic adsorption components 24 are embedded in the wall of the annular body 2, and the surface of the electrostatic adsorption components 24 is flush with the inner wall of the annular body 2. After the toothed protrusion 23 combs off the animal hair, the electrostatic adsorption components 24 adsorb the combed animal hair to prevent the hair from flying away. The pleated protrusion 21 and the recessed portion 22 are made of one piece, and both the pleated protrusion 21 and the recessed portion 22 are made of flexible material.
[0021] Working principle:
[0022] The device uses a flexible ring-shaped body (2) with a hollow structure through which the animal's body can pass. The inner wall of the ring-shaped body has alternating folded protrusions (21) and recesses (22). When the animal moves, the raised portion (211) in the middle of the folded protrusions (21) extends towards the center of the hollow structure, increasing the contact area with the hair; simultaneously, the toothed protrusions (23) comb the hair, causing it to detach from the animal's body. The detached hair is attracted by the electrostatic adsorption component (24) at the connection between the folded protrusions (21) and the recesses (22), preventing it from scattering. The outer shell (1) is fitted onto the outside of the ring-shaped body (2) and, through a detachable connection, cooperates with the external hair collection component to form a collection chamber, ultimately achieving automatic hair collection.
