For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0041] The pet toilet in this implementation is a place for pets to relieve themselves in the home or pet store. It is preferably designed for cats. For ease of explanation, cats will be used as an example below, but the use of dogs, rabbits or groundhogs is not excluded.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a pet toilet, including an external support 10, a litter box 20, and a flushing device 30. The external support 10 is provided with an activity space 101 for pets to use the toilet, and an opening 102 for entering and exiting the activity space 101 and a detection switch 103 provided on the opening 102. The litter box 20 is located at the bottom of the activity space 101, and a crushing mechanism 201 for crushing pet excrement is provided on the side of the litter box 20. A drain outlet 202 is provided at the bottom of the litter box 20. The flushing device 30 includes a flushing pipe 301 for flushing excrement towards the crushing mechanism 201 and an electric valve 302 for opening or closing the flushing pipe 301. The electric valve 302 is electrically connected to the detection switch.

[0043] Specifically, the external support 10 includes a box-shaped movable space 101 and multiple support legs that support the movable space 101. This allows the movable space 101 to be lifted off the ground, creating a gap between the bottom surfaces of the movable space 101, facilitating its placement and use. Simultaneously, a conduit can be installed at the drain outlet 202 of the toilet bowl 20 to guide flushing water out, thus facilitating drainage of the toilet bowl 20, or to allow for the installation of additional conduits for other uses.

[0044] In order to establish stable monitoring of the cat entering and exiting the activity space 101, the detection switch can use an infrared grating sensor, such as the Taihe THX4020 infrared grating sensor, so as to accurately obtain information about the cat entering and exiting.

[0045] Alternatively, the detection switch can be a touch switch, such as the TS-1109K touch switch. In this embodiment, a curtain 104 is provided on the opening 102, and the on / off switch is located at a position where the curtain 104 swings outward toward the activity space 101. The curtain 104 can be a one-piece structure of thick plastic film, whose softness will not cause injury, allowing the cat to enter and exit. Furthermore, the curtain 104 can be installed by hinges, allowing it to swing when the cat enters and exits, reducing resistance and facilitating the cat's movement.

[0046] Meanwhile, when the cat enters, the curtain 104 will separate from the touch switch, and the touch switch will not be triggered at this time, meaning that the flushing operation will not be performed. When the cat leaves after defecating, the cat will press against the curtain 104 and the on / off switch of the touch switch as it goes out, thus pressing the touch switch to open the electric valve 302 (the electric valve 302 can be a solenoid valve), which in turn opens the flushing pipe 301 for flushing.

[0047] In use, the cat can enter through the opening 102 on one side of the activity space 101. Upon entry, the detection switch 103 is not triggered or entry monitoring is activated, and the flushing device 30 does not operate; that is, the electric valve 302 remains in its initial state. After the cat finishes defecating in the litter box 20 and leaves the activity space 101 through the opening 102, the detection switch 103 is triggered or exit monitoring is activated. At this time, the electric valve 302 opens, and water is introduced through the flushing pipe 301 to flush the litter box 20. The introduced water will move or flush the excrement in the litter box 20. As the excrement flows, it is broken up by the pulverizing mechanism 201 so that it can be quickly discharged through the drain outlet 202, preventing blockage of the drain outlet 202 or the drain pipe 1012.

[0048] In this way, through the cooperation of the flushing device 30 and the pulverizing mechanism 201, the cat's excrement is flushed and pulverized and then discharged through the drain outlet 202, forming an automated effect of treating the cat's excrement without the need for manual processing.

[0049] like Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment also includes a litter ball 40. Multiple litter balls 40 are provided. The litter balls 40 can be plastic balls and can float on the water surface. Multiple litter balls 40 are filled or laid at the bottom of the litter box 20. In this way, the litter balls 40 can serve as cat litter to meet the habits of some cats.

[0050] Furthermore, the imitation sand balls 40 can also engulf and pulverize excrement, which helps to improve the efficiency of excrement pulverization. At the same time, the plastic imitation sand balls 40 are reusable and can maintain the required cleanliness after each rinse. They can be used for a long time without cleaning or replacement, which makes them very practical.

[0051] In this embodiment, the toilet bowl 20 can be round, oval, or polygonal, with a round design being preferred. Specifically, the pulverizing mechanism is installed on one side of the toilet bowl 20, and the flushing pipe 301 is designed to face the pulverizing mechanism 201. During flushing, the water flow passes through the pulverizing mechanism 201 and is then diverted along both sides of the round bowl, creating a double-eared backflow effect. This continuously circulates and flushes the excrement in the bowl towards the pulverizing mechanism 201, achieving a highly efficient pulverizing effect while saving water and conserving water resources.

[0052] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a drainage trough 1011 is provided at the bottom of the activity space 101, and a drainage pipe 1012 is provided at the bottom of the drainage trough 1011. The commode 20 is fitted inside the drainage trough 1011, and a drainage gap 1013 is provided between the commode 20 and the drainage trough 1011. The drainage trough 1011 can be a cylindrical structure, which can hold a circular commode 20. The depth of the drainage trough 1011 is greater than the depth of the commode 20, so that the commode 20 is completely contained within the drainage trough 1011. At the same time, the drainage gap 1013 is reserved to prevent water in the commode 20 from overflowing or to prevent water from splashing during flushing, thus avoiding water splashing and improving practicality.

[0053] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the pulverizing mechanism 201 includes a plurality of pulverizing blades 2011 arranged symmetrically in a figure-eight pattern, and a baffle 2012 disposed above the plurality of pulverizing blades 2011. The plurality of pulverizing blades 2011 are disposed on the side wall of the toilet bowl 20. The figure-eight pulverizing blades 2011 design makes the spacing between the pulverizing blades 2011 gradually decrease, which not only guides the excrement flushed to the pulverizing blades 2011, but also ensures that the excrement collides with the pulverizing blades 2011 for crushing, thus ensuring pulverizing efficiency.

[0054] like Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment, the flushing pipe 301 is a high-pressure pipe, such as a high-pressure steel wire hose. Its inlet cross-sectional area is larger than its outlet cross-sectional area. This allows for increased output water pressure (while maintaining a stable water pressure) after water enters the flushing pipe 301, resulting in a stronger flushing effect. The flushing pipe 301 then flushes towards the pulverizer 2011. The outlet of the flushing pipe 301 is installed close to the bottom of the toilet bowl 20, ensuring a thorough flushing of the excrement and / or the imitation sand balls 40 within the toilet bowl 20, guaranteeing that the excrement is flushed to the pulverizer 2011 for crushing.

[0055] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the drain outlet 202 is located near the multiple shredder blades 2011 on the toilet bowl 20. In order to ensure that the water in the toilet bowl 20 can be completely drained, one or more additional drain holes 203 can be opened at the bottom of the toilet bowl 20 for drainage, or the drain outlet 202 can be extended to the bottom of the toilet bowl 20 to ensure that the water in the toilet bowl 20 can be completely drained.

[0056] In this embodiment, the diameter of the imitation sand ball 40 is larger than the width or diameter of the drain outlet 202, which can prevent the imitation sand ball 40 from being flushed out through the drain outlet 202 and improve its practicality.

[0057] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, a storage tank 303 for storing liquid is provided on the flushing pipe 301. The storage tank 303 can be a tank structure and can also be made of stainless steel to improve the high pressure resistance of the storage tank 303. An automatic valve 3031 is provided between the storage tank 303 and the flushing pipe 301. The automatic valve 3031 can be a check valve, a one-way valve, or a high pressure check valve (single-disc type) or other valves suitable for pipelines.

[0058] When in use, a fragrance or deodorizer can be added to the storage container 303. When flushing, the liquid in the storage container 303 is carried out and added to the flushing pipe 301, thus giving the cleaning water a corresponding function. For example, adding a fragrance can leave a pleasant scent in the activity space 101 after flushing excrement, improving the toilet environment for pets.

[0059] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the electric valve 302 is equipped with a manual opening or closing operation switch 304. The operation switch 304 can be a push-button switch, and the electric valve 302 can be a solenoid valve. When the operation switch 304 is opened, power 50 is provided to the electric valve 302, causing the electric valve 302 to open the flushing pipe 301, thus achieving the purpose of manual flushing. In this way, if the detection switch does not trigger the opening of the flushing device 30, or if it is necessary to open the flushing device 30 again for cleaning, it can be done by manually pressing the operation switch 304, thereby meeting the need for manual flushing and improving practicality.

[0060] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment also includes a power supply 50. An operation switch 304 is electrically connected between the power supply 50 and the electric valve 302, and a detection switch 103 is also electrically connected between the power supply 50 and the electric valve 302. The power supply 50 can be a rechargeable battery or a dry cell battery, or it can be directly connected to mains power. The design of the power supply 50 allows for use in some outdoor scenarios, can handle power outages, or eliminates the need for a power cord, allowing for charging of the power supply 50, thus providing greater flexibility in use.

[0061] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the external support member 10 is provided with a door structure 105 on the side or top surface of the activity space 101. For example, a door structure 105 can be designed on the side of the external support member 10 located in the activity space 101 so as to carry out maintenance, repair or replacement of the toilet 20 or flushing device 30 in the activity space 101, thereby improving the convenience and practicality of use.

[0062] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
