[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. See also: Figure 1 —2:

[0022] A pet locker includes a locker body 1. The inner sidewall of the locker body 1 is provided with one or more support shelves 2 arranged horizontally and spaced vertically. The top support shelf 2 and the inner top surface of the locker body 1, the upper and lower adjacent support shelves 2, and the bottom support shelf 2 and the inner bottom surface of the locker body 1 are all arranged to form activity layers for pets to move around. The activity layers of each layer are interconnected. An air conditioning assembly 3 is provided on the locker body 1 and is connected to the top activity layer. A negative pressure hair removal device 4 is provided in the bottom activity layer.

[0023] This utility model has a simple structure and a reasonable spatial layout, which can provide pets with a large activity space and a suitable living environment. It adopts a layout with an air conditioning assembly 3 at the top and a negative pressure hair removal device 4 at the bottom, which can effectively regulate the temperature inside the cabinet 1 and automatically clean the hair inside the cabinet 1, thereby improving the pet's comfort and cleaning convenience inside the cabinet 1.

[0024] The negative pressure hair removal device 4 can directly remove hair from the cabinet 1. Specifically, the negative pressure hair removal device 4 includes a blower with an air inlet located at the bottom of the side wall of the cabinet 1. A protective mesh cover 8 is installed on the outside of the blower's air inlet, and the air outlet connects to the outside. Of course, the blower in this structure can also be used for ventilation between the cabinet 1 and the outside environment.

[0025] In this embodiment, in order to effectively collect hair, the negative pressure hair suction device 4 includes a negative pressure box 5 placed on the bottom surface of the cabinet 1. The negative pressure box 5 is provided with a collection chamber. The outer wall of the negative pressure box 5 has an air inlet and an air outlet communicating with the collection chamber. An air delivery impeller 6 driven by a power motor 7 is provided on the collection chamber located inside the air inlet. The air delivery impeller 6 can generate an airflow from the air inlet to the air outlet. A protective net cover 8 is provided at the air inlet, and a filter net cover 9 is provided at the air outlet. The mesh count of the filter net cover 9 is larger than that of the protective net cover 8. That is, the air delivery impeller 6 negatively suctions the hair in the cabinet 1 into the negative pressure box 5. The protective net cover 8 and the filter net cover 9 can prevent pets from accidentally touching the negative pressure box 5 and the air delivery impeller 6. In addition, the filter net cover 9 adopts a denser mesh structure to intercept the hair from being discharged outward and returning to the cabinet 1.

[0026] Furthermore, considering that the filter screen 9 alone may not be able to effectively prevent hair from being discharged outwards, a filter assembly is provided on the collection chamber located inside the air impeller 6 to ensure that the hair is blocked within the negative pressure chamber 5 and does not leak out. The filter assembly can be a filter sponge capable of blocking hair.

[0027] In this embodiment, in order to simultaneously circulate and purify the air inside the cabinet 1, the filter assembly includes a primary filter 10, a medium-efficiency filter 11, and a high-efficiency filter 12 in sequence from the air inlet to the air outlet.

[0028] Meanwhile, to facilitate the pet keeper's monitoring of the pet's activity status inside the cabinet 1 at any time, a monitoring camera 13 for capturing images of the interior of the cabinet 1 is installed at one corner of the top of the inner cavity. The monitoring camera 13 is electrically connected to an external terminal, which receives the image data from the monitoring camera 13. This external terminal can be a computer cloud server or a mobile phone.

[0029] In this embodiment, the specific structure inside the cabinet 1 is as follows: the front side of the cabinet 1 is a cabinet door made of transparent material; the supporting shelf 2 is fixed to the rear side wall of the cabinet 1; the front part of the supporting shelf 2 is a free end with a movable clearance space between it and the cabinet door; and a cat scratching post 14 for pet cats to sharpen their claws is provided on the side wall of one of the movable shelves. Furthermore, one of the supporting shelves 2 consists of a lookout support plate 15 fixed to the inner side wall of the cabinet 1, and suspension bridges 16 suspended at both ends between the lookout support plate 15 and the corresponding side wall of the cabinet 1.

[0030] In order to sterilize and disinfect the inside of cabinet 1 and further maintain the hygiene and cleanliness of cabinet 1, ultraviolet disinfection lamps 17 are installed on the side wall of the bottom active layer for irradiation in the corresponding active layer.

[0031] Furthermore, considering that the air conditioning assembly 3 is not turned on, in order to ventilate the cabinet 1 with the outside environment and improve the comfort of the environment inside the cabinet 1, an air inlet window is provided on the side wall of the top movable layer, and an exhaust window is provided on the side wall of the bottom movable layer. Both the air inlet and exhaust windows are equipped with louvered valves 18 that can open or close the corresponding windows. An exhaust fan 19 is provided on the movable layer inside the air inlet or exhaust window. The structure of the louvered valve 18 is existing technology, and existing products on the market can be directly purchased. At the same time, the opening and closing of the louvered valve 18 on the market includes both manual and electric methods, both of which can be applied to this pet cabinet. That is, by opening the louvered valves 18 at the air inlet and exhaust windows, air circulation between the cabinet 1 and the outside environment is achieved, and the airflow is generated by the exhaust fan 19, so that the airflow flows in from the top of the cabinet 1 and flows out from the bottom of the cabinet 1.

[0032] The above embodiments are only one of the preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the shape, structure and principle of this utility model should be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
