Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pet supplies, specifically to a semi-automatic pull-out pet toilet and a pet compartment thereon. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional litter boxes typically require manual cleaning, while smart litter boxes, due to their limited space and inconvenient cleaning, often employ fully automatic electronic cleaning systems. However, these fully automatic cleaning methods often involve complex mechanical structures. The high humidity in the pet waste disposal area is highly corrosive to electronic components, and the fine litter can easily get stuck in the parts. Therefore, fully automatic electronic litter boxes in pet containers have a high failure rate and are expensive, with high replacement and repair costs and difficult maintenance. The high cost of fully automatic litter boxes is a major reason why pet container prices have remained high, preventing them from reaching a large-scale market. The electric drive also necessitates carrying heavy batteries or power cords, making travel inconvenient. Furthermore, fully automatic cleaning methods often fail to completely remove litter, leaving dead spots that accumulate odors and dirt over time. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a semi-automatic pull-out pet toilet and a pet compartment incorporating it.

[0004] This solution provides a semi-automatic pull-out pet toilet, including a shell and an internal cavity. The shell is equipped with a first handle and a second handle connected to a pull plate. The internal cavity is divided into a litter area and a waste collection area. The litter area has a container for holding litter, and a toilet opening is provided above the container. An upward slope is provided on one side of the container, and the waste collection area is located on the other side of the slope. A waste collection box is provided on the bottom surface of the waste collection area, which is lower than the top surface of the slope. A rake is provided above the litter area, and guide pulleys are provided at both ends of the rake. Guide rails are provided on both sides of the litter area, and the guide pulleys are located in the guide rails, connecting the rake between the two guide rails. The rake is connected to the pull plate of the first handle on the outside through a connecting rod. The rake can be pulled by the first handle to move from the inside to the outside or from the outside to the inside of the litter area along the two guide rails. The waste collection box is connected to the pull plate of the second handle, and can be pulled out independently for cleaning by pulling the second handle.

[0005] This semi-automatic pull-out pet toilet features a fully mechanical structure, resulting in low failure rate, light weight, and lower cost. The first and second handles and pull plates form two drawer-like structures on one side of the casing. In the initial position, the drawers are closed, with the scoop rake located at the innermost part of the litter area. The ramp is a key design element. To use, pull the first handle outwards to open the "drawer" formed by the first handle and pull plate, then pull the scoop rake outwards from the first handle position. The scoop rake, through the filtering action of the tooth spacing, filters out unused litter, which falls back into the litter box as it passes over the ramp. Simultaneously, it pushes used litter, feces, and hairballs to the top of the ramp and into the waste collection box below. After completion, the second handle can be used to pull out the second "drawer" to remove the waste collection box for emptying. The entire process can be completed in one manual pull, making it simple to operate, highly efficient in cleaning, space-saving, and rationally arranged.

[0006] Preferably, the slope has an upward gradient of 27 degrees.

[0007] Multiple experiments have shown that a slope of 27 degrees results in the most reasonable slope length, leading to a more even distribution of cat litter and preventing the formation of noticeable piles or bulges that would create excessive resistance when the scoop is used to reset the litter.

[0008] Preferably, the litter area is provided with side covers on both sides, which enclose the guide rail and guide pulley inside.

[0009] The protective cover effectively protects the main mechanical structure from the effects of pet excrement in the litter box, ensuring smooth operation and further reducing the failure rate.

[0010] Preferably, the litter box area and the waste collection area are provided with a one-way flip door that can flip from the litter box area to the waste collection area, and the rake is provided with a push rod that protrudes laterally towards the waste collection area.

[0011] The litter box and waste collection area are separated by a hinged one-way door, preventing litter from entering the waste collection area when not cleaning, thus maintaining the separation on both sides and making it more hygienic. During cleaning, a push lever opens the door, allowing soiled litter and hairballs to easily enter the waste collection area.

[0012] Preferably, the feces collection box has a downward-sloping feces collection ramp on the side near the cat litter area.

[0013] The feces collection ramp can act as a guide, causing contaminated cat litter to slide into the feces collection box.

[0014] Preferably, the manure collection box is provided with a manure collection bag fixing position.

[0015] Disposable manure bags can be fixed in the manure collection box for easy cleaning.

[0016] Preferably, the rake is also provided with a reverse shovel parallel to the rake, and a side shovel is also provided at the rear. The reverse shovel and the side shovel can move together with the rake.

[0017] The reverse shovel is positioned above the rake, while the side shovel is positioned behind it. When the rake moves and resets, any dirt may be present; the reverse and side shovels can remove this dirt, preventing blockage of the rake teeth and ensuring optimal performance during forward movement. Additionally, the side and reverse shovels also act as limiters to prevent the rake from tipping over during operation.

[0018] Preferably, a row of outwardly protruding array ribs is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the cat litter area. The array ribs are arranged in a cross shape with the rake teeth on the rake shovel. When the rake shovel moves to the innermost side, the array ribs and the rake teeth on the rake shovel are in a cross shape.

[0019] When the rake is reset, the array of grooves can clean the dirt stuck between the rake teeth by cross cleaning, ensuring cleaning efficiency in the next cleaning and preventing the rake from accumulating dirt and clogging.

[0020] Preferably, the waste collection area is provided with a placement box, and the placement box is provided with ventilation holes.

[0021] This container can hold activated charcoal packets, which absorb odors from excrement and urine through the ventilation holes, purifying the air.

[0022] This solution also provides a smart pet cabin, including any of the above-mentioned semi-automatic pull-out pet toilets, wherein the pet toilet is located on the lower level of the smart cabin.

[0023] This layout offers a reasonable spatial distribution, a lightweight overall cabin, a low failure rate, significantly reduced costs, and greatly improved cleaning efficiency, making it a cost-effective option.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0025] 1. A semi-automatic pull-out pet toilet has a simple structure, can conveniently clean cat litter in a small space, has a low failure rate, and is easy to maintain;

[0026] 2. The mechanical structure is equipped with a protective cover on the side plate to minimize environmental interference and further reduce the failure rate.

[0027] 3. Manufacturing costs are significantly lower than those of electronic devices;

[0028] 4. Compared to fully automatic cat litter cleaning equipment, this solution provides better cat litter cleaning results;

[0029] 5. Setting it inside the pet compartment can significantly reduce the weight of the pet compartment, making it more portable. Attached Figure Description

[0035] To make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages of this utility model clearer, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] like Figure 1-3 The semi-automatic pull-out pet toilet shown includes a shell and an internal cavity. The shell is provided with a first handle 1 and a second handle 2 connected to a pull plate. The internal cavity is divided into a litter area 3 and a waste collection area 4. The litter area 3 is provided with a container for placing litter. A toilet opening is provided above the container. An upward-sloping ramp 5 is provided on one side of the container, and the ramp slopes upward at an angle of 27 degrees.

[0038] The feces collection area 4 is located on the other side of the slope 5. The bottom surface of the feces collection area 4 is lower than the top surface of the slope 5, and a feces collection box 6 is provided. A rake shovel 7 is provided above the litter area 3. Guide pulleys 8 are provided at both ends of the rake shovel 7. Guide rails 9 are provided on both sides of the litter area 3. The guide pulleys 8 are located in the guide rails 9, connecting the rake shovel 7 between the two guide rails 9. The rake shovel 7 is connected to the pull plate 11 of the outer first handle 1 through a connecting rod 10. The rake shovel 7 can be pulled by the first handle 1 to move from the inside to the outside or from the outside to the inside of the litter area 3 along the two guide rails 9. The feces collection box 6 is connected to the pull plate 11 of the second handle 2, and the feces collection box 6 can be pulled out independently for cleaning by pulling the second handle 2.

[0039] The first handle and pull plate, as well as the second handle and pull plate, form two drawer-like structures on one side of the casing. Initially, the drawers are closed, with the scoop rake located at the innermost part of the litter box. The ramp is a key design element. To use, pull the first handle outwards to open the "drawer" formed by the handle and pull plate, then pull the scoop rake outwards from the first handle position. The scoop rake, through the filtering action of its teeth, filters out unused litter, which falls back into the litter box as it passes over the ramp. Simultaneously, it pushes used litter, feces, and hairballs to the top of the ramp, sending them into the waste collection box below. Afterwards, the second handle can be used to pull out the second "drawer" to remove the waste collection box for emptying. The entire process can be completed in one manual pull, making it simple to operate, highly efficient, space-saving, and rationally arranged. Multiple experiments have shown that a slope of 27 degrees results in the most reasonable slope length, leading to a more even distribution of cat litter and preventing the formation of noticeable piles or bulges that would create excessive resistance when the scoop is used to reset the litter.

[0040] Side guards are provided on both sides of the litter area 3, which enclose the guide rail 9 and guide pulley 8. The protective guards effectively protect the main mechanical structure from the effects of pet excrement in the litter area, ensuring smooth operation of the structure and further reducing the failure rate.

[0041] A one-way hinged door 12 is provided between the litter area 3 and the waste collection area 4, allowing the litter area to flip towards the waste collection area. The rake shovel 7 is equipped with a push rod 13 that protrudes laterally towards the waste collection area 4. The litter area and the waste collection area are connected by a hinged one-way hinged door to prevent litter from entering the waste collection area when not cleaning, maintaining the separation of the two sides and making it more hygienic. During cleaning, the push rod can open the hinged door, allowing contaminated litter and hairballs to smoothly enter the waste collection area.

[0042] The feces collection box 6 has a downward-sloping feces collection ramp 14 on the side near the litter area. The feces collection ramp acts as a guide, allowing contaminated cat litter to slide into the feces collection box.

[0043] The manure collection box 6 is equipped with a manure bag fixing position. Disposable manure bags can be fixed in the manure collection box for easy cleaning.

[0044] A reverse shovel is also provided parallel to the rake shovel, and side shovels are connected to both sides. The reverse shovel and side shovels can move together with the rake shovel. The reverse shovel is located above the rake shovel, and the side shovels are located behind it. When the rake shovel moves and returns to its original position, any dirt or debris can be removed by the reverse shovel and side shovels, preventing blockage of the rake shovel teeth and affecting the performance during forward operation. At the same time, the side shovels and reverse shovels also have a limiting function to prevent the rake shovel from tipping over during operation.

[0045] A row of outwardly protruding array ribs 15 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the cat litter area. The array ribs 15 are arranged in a cross shape with the rake teeth on the rake shovel 7. When the rake shovel 7 moves to the innermost side, the array ribs 15 and the rake teeth on the rake shovel are in a cross shape.

[0046] When the rake is reset, the array of grooves can clean the dirt stuck between the rake teeth by cross cleaning, ensuring cleaning efficiency in the next cleaning and preventing the rake from accumulating dirt and clogging.

[0047] The waste collection area 4 is equipped with a placement box 16, which has ventilation holes. Activated carbon packets can be placed inside this placement box to absorb odors from feces and urine through the ventilation holes, thus purifying the air.

[0048] The semi-automatic pull-out pet toilet in this embodiment has a simple structure, can conveniently clean cat litter in a small space, has a low failure rate, and is easy to maintain; the mechanical structure is equipped with a protective cover with a sealing plate, which protects the mechanical structure from environmental interference to a minimum, further reducing the failure rate; the manufacturing cost is significantly lower than that of electronic equipment; and the cat litter cleaning effect of this solution is better than that of fully automatic cat litter cleaning equipment.
