An easily cleanable cat litter box

Abstract

This utility model discloses an easy-to-clean cat litter box, relating to the field of cat litter box technology. The utility model includes a base plate, with the litter box body fixedly connected to the top of the base plate. A fixed cover is provided on the top of the base plate and outside the litter box body. Through the cooperation of a servo motor, a threaded rod, a slider, and a fixed plate, a rotating rod, a push rod, and a fixed column are driven to move laterally. Because the volume of the clump of cat feces is larger than the distance between two adjacent push rods, it pushes the cat feces towards one side of the collection frame. When the fixed column moves from the lateral end of the guide groove to the inclined section, the guide groove guides the fixed column, simultaneously driving the fixed rod, rotating rod, and push rod to rotate upwards. This causes the push rod to move along the inner wall of the arc-shaped surface, pushing the cat feces along the inner wall of the sliding groove, removing the clump of cat feces from inside the litter box body, thus avoiding the problem of tedious manual cleaning.

The litter box, as the primary facility for cats' daily elimination, is directly related to the cat's comfort and the owner's daily care experience.

[0003] However, traditional litter boxes generally rely on manual cleaning of cat feces, a process that is not only tedious and time-consuming, but may also increase hygiene risks due to frequent contact with excrement, causing inconvenience to pet owners' lives. In response to the above problems, the inventor proposed an easy-to-clean litter box to solve these issues. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the problem of automatic cleaning of cat feces in cat litter boxes, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a cat litter box that is easy to clean.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: an easy-to-clean cat litter box, including a base plate, a cat litter box body fixedly connected to the top of the base plate, a fixed cover provided on the top of the base plate and outside the cat litter box body, a protective cover fixedly connected to one side of the fixed cover, a threaded rod rotatably connected inside the protective cover, a slider threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded rod, the slider slidingly connected to the inner wall of the protective cover, a fixed plate fixedly connected to the bottom end of the slider, and a sliding plate slidably engaged on the side of the fixed cover away from the protective cover. The rotating rods are rotatably connected. At the bottom of the rotating rod and inside the litter box body, there are push rods arranged at equal intervals. Both sides of the fixed cover have through slots, and both ends of the rotating rod can move within the through slots. A servo motor is fixedly installed on one side of the protective cover. The drive end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to a threaded rod. A flipping component is provided on one side of the fixed plate. An inlet is provided at the top of the fixed cover and above the litter box body. Support pads are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the base plate. The base plate and the fixed cover adopt a split structure.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Example: Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides an easy-to-clean cat litter box, including a base plate 1, a cat litter box body 2 fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, a fixed cover 3 covering the top of the base plate 1 and the outer side of the cat litter box body 2, a protective cover 4 fixedly connected to one side of the fixed cover 3, a threaded rod 5 rotatably connected inside the protective cover 4, a slider 6 threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded rod 5, the slider 6 slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective cover 4, a fixed plate 7 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the slider 6, a sliding plate 18 slidably engaged on the side of the fixed cover 3 away from the protective cover 4, a rotatable connection between the fixed plate 7 and a rotating rod 8, push rods 9 evenly distributed and fixedly connected to the bottom end of the rotating rod 8 and inside the cat litter box body 2, through grooves 10 opened on both sides of the fixed cover 3, both ends of the rotating rod 8 movable within the through grooves 10, a servo motor 14 fixedly installed on one side of the protective cover 4, the drive end of the servo motor 14 fixedly connected to the threaded rod 5, and a flipping assembly provided on one side of the fixed plate 7.

[0019] The flipping assembly includes a fixed rod 11, one end of a rotating rod 8 extends to one side of a fixed plate 7 and is fixedly connected to the fixed rod 11, a fixed post 12 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed rod 11 away from the fixed plate 7, a guide groove 13 is provided on the side of the protective cover 4 away from the fixed cover 3, the fixed post 12 is movably engaged in the guide groove 13, and the inner wall of the litter box body 2 is provided with an arc-shaped surface 15 on the side near the collection frame 17, the arc-shaped surface 15 is adapted to the movement trajectory of the push rod 9.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when the slider 6 drives the fixed plate 7 to move laterally, it also drives the fixed rod 11 to move laterally and the fixed column 12 to move laterally along the inside of the guide groove 13. When the fixed column 12 moves from the lateral end of the guide groove 13 to the inclined section, the guide groove 13 guides the fixed column 12 and drives the fixed rod 11 to rotate upward, thereby driving the rotating rod 8 to rotate upward. At this time, the push rod 9 corresponds to the position of the arc surface 15 and moves along the inner wall of the arc surface 15, thereby removing the cat feces that have hardened into clumps from the inside of the cat litter box body 2.

[0021] A groove 16 is provided on one side of the fixed cover 3, and a collection frame 17 is slidably engaged inside the groove 16.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the collection box 17 is set up to facilitate the collection of cleaned cat feces, and the cat feces can be easily dumped by pulling the collection box 17 out of the inside of the chute 16.

[0023] An inlet 19 is provided at the top of the fixed cover 3 and above the cat litter box body 2.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the inlet 19, it is convenient for cats to enter the interior of the litter box body 2 from above the inlet 19.

[0025] Support pads 20 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the base plate 1.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the support pad 20, the equipment can be placed more stably.

[0027] The base plate 1 and the fixed cover 3 adopt a split structure.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, the base plate 1 and the fixing cover 3 are separated by a detachable structure, which makes it convenient to replace the cat litter inside the cat litter box body 2 after the fixing cover 3 is disassembled from the base plate 1.

[0029] Working principle: When the device is not in operation, the push rod 9 is located inside the litter box body 2 on the side away from the collection frame 17. When cleaning the litter box, the servo motor 14 drives the threaded rod 5 to rotate, causing the slider 6 to move laterally along the outside of the threaded rod 5 towards one side of the collection frame 17. This also causes the fixed plate 7, rotating rod 8, push rod 9, and fixed rod 11 to move synchronously. Simultaneously, the fixed column 12 moves laterally along the inside of the guide groove 13. Because the volume of the clump of cat feces is larger than the distance between two adjacent push rods 9, the cat feces are pushed towards one side of the collection frame 17 by the push rod 9. The cat litter passes between two adjacent push rods 9. When the fixed post 12 moves from the horizontal end of the guide groove 13 to the inclined section, the push rod 9 is exactly aligned with the position of the arc surface 15. The guide groove 13 guides the fixed post 12 and drives the fixed rod 11 to rotate upward, thereby driving the rotating rod 8 and the push rod 9 to rotate upward. This causes the push rod 9 to move along the inner wall of the arc surface 15 and push the cat feces along the inner wall of the slide 16, thereby removing the cat feces that have hardened into clumps inside the cat litter box body 2 from inside the cat litter box body 2 to inside the slide 16, where the cat feces are collected.

[0030] After collecting for a period of time, the cat feces can be easily emptied by pulling the collection box 17 out of the chute 16. Furthermore, the base plate 1 and the fixing cover 3 are connected by a detachable structure, which allows for easy replacement of the cat litter inside the litter box body 2 after the fixing cover 3 is removed from the base plate 1.

[0031] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
