Pet intelligent waste disposal system

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of intelligent pet devices, providing an intelligent pet excretion system, including a poop pad with an excretion hole, an induction excretion medium carrying module, sensor components, and an excrement processing device. In its initial state, the medium carrying module blocks the channel between the excretion hole and the collection device, forming an induction excretion area. The sensor components (including at least one pressure, vision, contact, or thermal sensor) monitor the pet's excretion behavior. When the pet enters an excretion-related state, the excretion system deforms or moves its components to form an excretion channel, allowing excrement to enter the excrement processing device through the excretion hole. In non-excretion states, the system returns to its initial state, performing excrement storage or cleaning (including flushing / sealing). This solution switches between the induction excretion area and the excretion channel based on the excretion behavior state, achieving isolation between excrement, the induction medium, and the pet, significantly reducing medium consumption while preserving the pet's natural excretion behavior characteristics, eliminating the need for manual training.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pet intelligent device technology, specifically relating to a pet intelligent excretion system that can be used for pet daily excretion management and hygiene treatment. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing number of pets, the management and hygiene of pet homes are receiving more and more attention. Especially in urban environments, the timely cleaning and disposal of pet excrement is not only related to indoor environmental hygiene, but also affects the quality of life of both pets and their owners.

[0003] Existing pet elimination devices mainly include pet litter boxes, automatic cat litter machines, and pet toilets. While these devices can solve pet elimination problems to some extent, they still have shortcomings:

[0004] v Devices containing a guiding medium (such as pet litter boxes and automatic cat litter machines)

[0005] These devices utilize pets' natural instinct to bury their excrement as a means of urination, but the excrement comes into direct contact with the litter or other urination medium, easily leading to contamination and requiring frequent replacement, thus increasing usage costs and workload. Furthermore, pets may become soiled with excrement during the burying process, further polluting the home environment.

[0006] ● Devices that do not contain induction media (such as pet toilets and waste collection boxes).

[0007] These devices can effectively isolate and treat excrement, and are hygienic and economical. However, they usually require a long period of behavioral training for the pets to overcome their habit of only excreting on sandy or soil-based media.

[0008] Pets maintain a defecation posture for a period of time before defecating, typically with an interval of more than 2 seconds between entering this state and the excrement falling. Sensors can monitor and predict this state. Therefore, a combined strategy can be adopted: normally, use an induction medium to guide the pet to defecate; when the pet is detected to be in a defecation-related state, quickly switch the induction medium to a defecation channel connected to the waste disposal device. This combines the advantages of both methods, isolating the excrement from the induction medium and the pet, reducing medium consumption, and preserving the pet's natural defecation behavior without the need for artificial training. Utility Model Content

[0009] The main objective of this invention is to provide a smart pet excretion system for daily excretion management and hygiene of pets. This system isolates excrement from the inducing medium and the pet, significantly reducing medium consumption while preserving the pet's natural excretion behavior characteristics, eliminating the need for manual training.

[0010] This utility model discloses a pet intelligent excretion system comprising: a poop pad with an excretion hole, a sensor assembly, an excretion-inducing medium-carrying module, an excrement processing device, and a controller (electrically connecting the sensor assembly and the excretion-inducing medium-carrying module); the system also includes a main support structure for supporting and fixing each component. In its initial position, the excretion-inducing medium-carrying module blocks the channel between the poop pad's excretion hole and the excrement processing device, forming an excretion-inducing zone; the sensor assembly monitors the pet's excretion behavior and generates trigger signals; the controller controls the excretion-inducing medium-carrying module to switch positions or forms based on the sensor signals, so that when the pet enters an excretion-related state, the excretion hole and the collection device are connected, and when not in an excretion state, the initial state is restored.

[0011] Excretion behavior states include: entering the system area, preparing to excrete, excreting, excretion completed, and leaving the system area; among them, preparing to excrete and excreting are excretion-related states, and the rest are non-excretion states. The excretion-related states are defined by sensor algorithms and include: the pet maintaining an excretion posture (including states where it has not yet excreted and is excreting), and the detection of excretory organs or excrement in a specific location; it can also be simplified to be determined based on whether the pet's face orientation covers the excretion hole area: when the sensor detects the presence of the pet and the field of view of its face orientation does not cover the excretion hole area (the angle between the face orientation and the line connecting the excretion hole and the head is greater than 90 degrees), it is determined to be an excretion-related state, and all other cases are determined to be non-excretion states.

[0012] The sensor components include at least one of pressure sensors, vision sensors, odor sensors, proximity sensors, contact sensors, radar sensors, and thermal sensors. By monitoring the pet's posture, excretory organ characteristics, excrement, pressure distribution, specific odors, and proximity and contact with specific locations, the system can effectively monitor the excretory behavior.

[0013] The litter pad is designed with an adjustable drainage hole, allowing for automatic or manual size adjustment to accommodate changes in pet size. According to the embodiment, the drainage hole size can be adjusted automatically by the controller, manually by the user, or by replacing the pad with a magnetic one. This design not only improves the pet's comfort during elimination but also prevents the pet from stepping into the drainage hole, accommodating pets of different sizes.

[0014] The excretion-inducing medium-carrying module adopts a tray or plate-like structure to carry the excretion-inducing medium. The medium can be pet litter, sand, pee pad material, or a pheromone agent with an inducing odor. The module includes a actuator and transmission structure, enabling spatial repositioning or structural deformation to form an excretion channel when needed. The changes can be achieved through positional movement, deformation, or channel switching, and the process is completed within 2 seconds.

[0015] The driver and transmission structure of the excretion-inducing medium carrier module, the connection parts with the main carrier structure, and the driving algorithm have all undergone noise reduction and vibration damping treatment to ensure that the system switches quickly and seamlessly, improving the pet's acceptance.

[0016] The waste treatment device may include flushing and waste disposal, waste storage, disinfection, water-sealed storage or packaging in the collection box, and can be integrated with a fresh air system for deodorization.

[0017] In terms of workflow, the pet first steps onto the litter pad and checks the induction medium carrier tray and the environment. At this point, the system is in its initial state, and the induction zone functions to guide the pet to defecate. When the pet enters the defecation-related state, the sensor detects this state and triggers a signal. Immediately, the induction medium carrier module quickly changes its defecation channel, and the excrement falls directly into the excrement processing device. After the pet enters the non-defecation state, the system will, according to preset settings, immediately restore the induction zone or after the pet has completely left the system to ensure the normal operation of the system. At the same time, the excrement processing device cleans or stores the excrement.

[0018] Through the design of this system, this utility model effectively isolates excrement, the incentive medium, and the pet, maintaining a hygienic home environment and ensuring that the incentive medium remains uncontaminated with almost no loss, making it both hygienic and economical. At the same time, the system preserves the pet's natural excretion behavior, reducing training costs and providing a more intelligent and comfortable excretion management solution for pets.

[0078] 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.

[0079] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0080] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "vertical", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0081] Furthermore, the term "comprising," and any variations thereof, is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or modules is not limited to the steps or modules listed, but may optionally include steps or modules not listed, or may optionally include other steps or modules inherent to such process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0082] Please see Figure 1 This utility model provides a pet intelligent excretion system 100. The pet intelligent excretion system 100 includes a poop pad 2 with excretion holes, a sensor assembly 3, an excretion induction medium carrier module 4, an excrement treatment device 5, a controller 6, and also includes a main support structure 1 for supporting and fixing each component.

[0083] Please also refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The toilet pad 2 with the excretion hole is detachably fixed to the surface of the main support structure 1 by magnets 201 and 202, facilitating cleaning and maintenance of the excrement treatment device 5 by the user. The excretion induction medium carrying module 4 is mounted on the main support structure 1 by a sound-absorbing and vibration-damping pad 41, and the medium carrying disk 40 is pulled back and forth on the guide rail 421 by a synchronous belt 471. See details below. Figure 6A-1 and Figure 6A-2 The sound-absorbing and vibration-damping pad 41 is made of sound-absorbing materials such as silent sponge or rubber to eliminate vibrations and noise from movement, thus avoiding any impact on pets.

[0084] The excrement treatment device 5 includes a water tank 52, an excrement flushing tray 53, and an excrement collection box 54, and optionally integrates a fresh air system, which consists of a fresh air fan 551 and a fresh air duct 552. When a pet defecates, the excrement falls directly into the excrement flushing tray 53 through the excrement hole 2002; after defecation, the controller 6 activates the water tank 52 to fill the flushing tray 53 with water, flushing the excrement into the excrement collection box 54. The excrement collection box 54 can be directly connected to the sewer for direct discharge of excrement, or it can be used with an ozone generator for disinfection, deodorization, and sealed storage. The fresh air system uses the fresh air fan 551 to exhaust the odor inside the chamber to the outdoors through the fresh air duct 552, ensuring fresh ambient air.

[0085] Further, the sensor component 3 may optionally include one or more sensors distributed at various locations in the system 100 to monitor the pet's excretion behavior. Excretion behavior states include: entering the system area, preparing to excrete, excreting, excretion completed, and leaving the system area; among these, preparing to excrete and excreting are excretion-related states, while the remaining states are non-excretion states. The excretion-related states are defined by a sensor algorithm. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the media carrier plate 40 is initially positioned directly below the excretion hole 2002, thereby blocking the channel between the excretion hole 2002 and the excrement washing plate 53, forming an induction excretion area; when the sensor detects that the pet has entered an excretion-related state, the media carrier plate 40 moves backward along the guide rail 421, no longer blocking the excretion hole 2002, forming an excretion channel, and the excrement falls directly into the excrement washing plate 53; in the non-excretion state, the system 100 returns to its initial state, and the excrement treatment system 5 processes the excrement.

[0086] Please refer to the following: Figure 4 The following is a schematic diagram of the sensor layout. Some sensor monitoring examples are provided below, which can be integrated to improve detection reliability:

[0087] ● The visual sensor can monitor a pet's excretion status by recognizing specific organs and postures in images. The visual sensor can be optionally placed in multiple locations, including but not limited to 31, 32, 35, 371, and 372, which can effectively identify excretory organs, excretory postures, or excrement. Specifically: when the visual sensor is located at position 32, facing the excretion hole 2002, if an excretory organ or excrement is detected, it is determined to be an excretion-related state, and an excretion channel is immediately formed and maintained; if no organ or excrement is detected, it is determined to be a non-excretion state, and the initial position is returned. When the visual sensor is located at positions 31, 35, 371, and 372, its status can be determined by detecting the pet's excretion posture: if the pet is in a excretion posture and remains still for 0.5 seconds, it is considered to be in an excretion-related state. Another simplified method is to determine an excretion-related state when the presence of a pet is detected and the field of view of its face does not cover the excretion hole 2002 (the angle between the face and the line connecting the excretion hole and the head is greater than 90 degrees); otherwise, it is determined to be a non-excretion state.

[0088] ● Thermal sensors (such as thermal imaging sensors or arrayed thermopile sensors) can monitor a pet's excretion status by detecting changes in temperature distribution. They can observe the local temperature rise of the excretory organs during the preparation for excretion and identify significant temperature differences between the excrement and the external environment. When the thermal sensor is positioned at location 32 and facing the excretion hole 2002, it can identify the excretory organs and excrement through thermal imaging: a sustained temperature rise in the organ area indicates the pet is in the preparation for excretion; a more significant temperature difference between the high-temperature hot spot generated after the excrement falls and the surrounding environment indicates the excretion state. When the thermal sensor is located at locations 31, 371, or 372, it is mainly used to observe the local temperature rise and relative stillness in the pet's lower abdomen or tail root area to determine whether the pet has entered an excretion-related state. When the temperature rise disappears or no thermal image of the pet is detected, it is considered a non-excretion state.

[0089] ● The pressure array sensor 34 is attached directly above the poop pad 2 with the excretion hole and can monitor the pressure distribution of the pet on the poop pad. When pressure is detected simultaneously at specific locations (such as both sides of the excretion hole 2002 and the area where the pet's front paws are located when excreting), it can be determined that the pet is in an excretion-related state. This change in pressure distribution helps to monitor changes in pet behavior in real time and ensure accurate identification of excretion status.

[0090] Contact sensors 331, 332, 333, and 334 (such as capacitive sensors and electrode sensors) are distributed at specific positions on the poop pad 2 with the excretion hole. In this embodiment, they are located on both sides of the excretion hole 2002 and are used to detect whether the pet's two hind legs are in contact with the corresponding area. If contact signals are detected simultaneously, it can be determined that the pet is in an excretion-related state.

[0091] Proximity sensors (such as infrared sensors, ultrasonic sensors, etc.) can be optionally installed at locations 31, 32, 35, 371, 372, etc., as a low-cost solution. By adjusting the threshold, when proximity signals are detected simultaneously, it can be determined that the pet is in a defecation posture and has entered a defecation-related state. In addition, proximity sensors can also be used as auxiliary sensors to determine whether the pet has entered or left the defecation system area. Radar sensors can also be installed at the above locations to monitor the pet's movement and the landing of excrement.

[0092] Odor sensor 36 is installed inside the cavity of system 100 to detect odor components such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide produced during exhaust. Based on changes in odor concentration, the sensor can determine whether exhaust has occurred and can serve as a signal to control the start or stop of the fresh air system's cleaning process.

[0093] The sensor layout described above is not limited to the locations and types mentioned. It can also be installed outside the main supporting structure 1 (such as on the ceiling) to observe the overall status of the pet. As long as it is used to detect the pet's excretion behavior, it is within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0094] Please see Figure 5A and Figure 5B , Figure 5A This is a perspective view of a specific embodiment of the toilet pad with an excretion hole of this utility model. Figure 5B The corresponding top view is shown. The litter pad 2 with the excretion hole 2002 can be adjusted to fit pets of different sizes, improving the pet's excretion comfort and preventing the pet from accidentally stepping into the excretion hole. The specific adjustment method is as follows: the right gear connecting rod 232, right connecting rod 231, left connecting rod 233, and left gear connecting rod 234 are hinged to the litter pad plate 20, and the litter pad plate 20 is also fixed with a component 24. When the component 24 is a knob, the user can manually rotate the knob to drive the right gear connecting rod 232 to rotate, thereby driving the right connecting rod 231, left connecting rod 233, and left gear connecting rod 234, so that the left moving plate 21 and the right moving plate 22 open and close synchronously to adjust the actual size of the excretion hole 2002. When the component 24 is a actuator, the user can adjust it through the controller, or the controller can automatically adjust the size of the excretion hole 2002. The type of actuator is not limited to electric or pneumatic. Without the aforementioned adjustment components, the poop pad 2 can be quickly removed by using magnets 201, 202, 203, and 204 installed at the four corners of the poop pad 20; by replacing the poop pad 2 with one of different overall size or different hole size, it can be adapted to pets of different sizes.

[0095] The following shows specific embodiments of three types of induced excretion medium carrier modules. Please also refer to [the relevant documentation]. Figure 6A-1 , Figure 6A-2 , Figure 6B-1 , Figure 6B-2 and Figure 6C The media carrier disk 40 uses lightweight materials such as foam to reduce inertia and load.

[0096] For an example of the induced discharge medium carrier module, please refer to Example 1. Figure 6A-1 and Figure 6A-2 The medium-carrying disc 40 moves back and forth on the guide rails via a synchronous belt, thereby shielding or forming a discharge channel. Specifically, the right guide rail 421, left guide rail 422, synchronous belt driven pulleys 441 and 443, synchronous belt drive pulleys 442 and 444, right synchronous belt 471, and left synchronous belt 472 respectively form the right and left synchronous belt transmission mechanisms; the synchronous belt drive pulley 442 is driven by the driver 43, which is fixed to the active bearing structure 1 by a shock-absorbing sleeve 45 to reduce vibration and noise. The synchronous belt drive pulley 442 drives the synchronous belt drive pulley 444 through the rear synchronous belt 473, thereby achieving synchronous movement on both sides. The medium-carrying disc 40 is fixed to the guide rails and synchronous belts by the right rubber fastener 461 and the left rubber fastener 462 to reduce vibration and parallelism error. For details of the working mechanism, see 6A-2: the dotted line indicates that the medium-carrying disc 40 is in its initial position, that is, located below the discharge hole 2002 and shielding the discharge channel. The solid line indicates that the media carrier plate 40 is in the working state, i.e., moved away from the discharge hole 2002 to open the discharge channel; when a pet is detected to be in a defecation-related state, the actuator 43 moves the media carrier plate 40 from the position shown by the dashed line to the position shown by the solid line, thereby opening the discharge channel. The dotted line indicates the trajectory of excrement falling from the discharge hole 2002 to the excrement treatment device 5.

[0097] For a second embodiment of the induced excretion medium carrier module 4, please refer to [the relevant documentation]. Figure 6B-1 and Figure 6B-2 The driver and transmission structure are omitted in the figure. In this embodiment, the medium carrier disk is divided into a right carrier disk 401 and a left carrier disk 402, which can move along the right guide rail 421 and the left guide rail 422 respectively, thereby realizing separation and merging. Figure 6B-1 In the initial state: the right bearing plate 401 and the left bearing plate 402 are combined and located below the drain hole 2002, obscuring the drain channel; Figure 6B-2 In working state: the right support plate 401 and the left support plate 402 are separated along the guide rail, the area below the drain hole 2002 is unobstructed, and the drain channel is open. The controller 6 can quickly switch between these two states based on sensor signals.

[0098] For an example of the induced discharge medium carrier module, please refer to Embodiment 3. Figure 6CIn this embodiment, the medium-carrying plate 40 is fixed below the discharge hole 2002, shielding the discharge channel; the system opens and closes the discharge channel through the movement of the discharge guide plate 48. Specifically, the discharge guide plate 48, the guide plate drive linkage 491, and the guide plate driven linkage 492 form a linkage mechanism. In the initial state, the discharge guide plate 48, the guide plate drive linkage 491, and the guide plate driven linkage 492 are located in the dotted line portion, the discharge guide plate 48 is retracted, and the excrement cannot fall to the excrement processing device 5. When a pet is detected to be in a defecation-related state, the actuator 43 drives the guide plate drive linkage 491, and the relevant components move from the position shown by the dotted line to the position shown by the solid line, thereby forming a discharge channel, and the discharge guide plate 48 guides the direction of excrement descent. The dotted line represents the trajectory of excrement falling from the discharge hole 2002 and being guided by the discharge guide plate 48 to the excrement processing device 5.

[0099] See also Figure 7 An embodiment of an excrement disposal device is shown. This embodiment uses an excrement collection container instead of a complex flushing and sewage disposal structure. When a pet defecates, the excrement falls directly into the container for storage. The container contains water, which effectively isolates the odor of the excrement. The excrement disposal device 5 can be easily removed and inserted through an opening in the main support structure 1, facilitating quick cleaning. This design simplifies the structure and effectively reduces costs, demonstrating good practicality.

[0100] The above description is only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and is not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
