Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a cat litter box with a replaceable activated carbon layer, belonging to the technical field of cat litter boxes. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most cat litter boxes are single-layer or multi-layer plastic basins, relying on the cat litter itself to absorb odors or additional deodorizing agents. The drawbacks are: 1. Odors spread quickly, requiring frequent replacement of the entire litter box, resulting in high consumable costs; 2. Deodorizing agents are mostly chemical fragrances, which can irritate pets and humans; 3. Activated charcoal packets are usually buried directly in the litter, making them fragile, dusty, and contaminating the litter when replaced; 4. While multi-layer drawer-type litter boxes have drawers, the activated charcoal layer becomes saturated quickly after contact with urine, requiring the entire box to be pulled out for cleaning, which is cumbersome.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a cat litter box with a simple structure, quick activated carbon replacement, and physical isolation from cat litter. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a cat litter box with a replaceable activated carbon layer that is simple in structure, reasonably designed, can effectively remove odors, and is easy to maintain.

[0017] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0018] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a cat litter box with a replaceable activated carbon layer includes a basin body 1 and a protective cover 2 installed on the basin body. A filter shell 3 is provided at the bottom of the basin body 1, and an anti-slip support block 4 is provided at the bottom of the filter shell 3. An annular sealing groove 5 is provided on the circumference of the basin body 1, and an annular sealing protrusion 6 is provided on the top circumference of the filter shell 3. The annular sealing protrusion 6 cooperates with the annular sealing groove 5 and is used to be inserted into the annular sealing groove 5. Multiple negative pressure air intake holes 7 are provided at the top of the annular sealing groove 5. An airflow channel 9 is built into the filter shell 3. Multiple air guide holes 8 are provided on the annular sealing protrusion 6 and are connected to the airflow channel 9. An activated carbon filter assembly 10 is installed in the airflow channel 9, and a negative pressure fan 11 connected to the airflow channel 9 is installed at the bottom of the filter shell 3.

[0019] This invention features a protective cover 2 installed on the top of the litter box 1 and a filter housing 3 installed at the bottom. The protective cover 2 serves a protective function, preventing cat litter from falling outside, and also helps to collect and treat odors. The filter housing 3 is fitted onto the bottom of the litter box 1, achieving a seal with the litter box 1 through an annular sealing protrusion 6 and an annular sealing groove 5. The filter housing 3 has an internal airflow channel 9, the size and area of ​​which can be designed according to the litter box. A negative pressure fan 11 is installed at the bottom of the filter housing 3, and an activated carbon filter assembly 10 is installed inside the airflow channel 9. Through the action of the negative pressure fan 11, odorous air from the litter box is drawn into the airflow channel 9 through the negative pressure suction hole 7 and the air guide hole 8, and then discharged after being filtered by the activated carbon filter assembly 10, thus filtering the odors. Both the air guide hole 8 and the negative pressure suction hole 7 are equipped with fine mesh 14 to prevent debris from entering the airflow channel.

[0020] The filter housing 3 has a basin-shaped structure and is fitted onto the outside of the basin body 1. An annular positioning protrusion 12 is provided on the outer circumference of the filter housing 3. The bottom circumference of the protective cover 2 extends to the outside of the annular positioning protrusion 12. An annular sealing ring 13 is fixed on the annular positioning protrusion 12 and is positioned between the annular positioning protrusion 12 and the protective cover 2. This design of the filter housing 3 allows it to fit tightly into the litter box without adding extra space, ensuring a compact structure. The annular sealing ring 13 seals the filter housing 3 and the protective cover 2, preventing odor air from escaping from the protective cover and improving the collection efficiency.

[0021] The filter housing 3 has a sandwich structure, with the airflow channel 9 located within it. Filter assembly mounting holes 15 are provided on both sides of the filter housing 3. The activated carbon filter assembly 10 is installed within these mounting holes 15, and a sealing film 16 is provided between the back of the activated carbon filter assembly 10 and the sandwich structure of the filter housing 3. This structure reduces space requirements and allows for a more rational arrangement of the airflow channel 9, the activated carbon filter assembly 10, and the negative pressure fan 11. It enables odorous air to be filtered and discharged through the sandwich structure of the filter housing 3, ensuring a compact structure.

[0022] In addition, the activated carbon filter assembly 10 includes a filter box 17 and a fixing plate 18 installed on the filter box 17. The fixing plate 18 is fixed to the filter housing 3 by screws. Support meshes are provided at the bottom and top of the filter box 17. Between the support meshes, from top to bottom, are arranged a filter layer for removing large particulate pollutants, an adsorption layer for removing small particulate pollutants and toxic gases, and a sterilization layer for killing bacteria and viruses. The activated carbon filter assembly 10 has a detachable structure for easy replacement. The activated carbon filter assembly 10 has a five-layer structure internally. Support meshes are provided at the top and bottom for support, and a filter layer, an adsorption layer, and a sterilization layer are arranged between the support meshes. The filter layer uses a submicron-level multi-layer non-woven fabric with a conical honeycomb three-dimensional dust filtration structure, i.e., a 3D structure. The pore size of the filter layer gradually decreases from the first layer to the last layer. The adsorption layer uses activated carbon fiber. The sterilization layer uses a mesh woven from sterilization fiber or sterilization non-woven fabric. Through the multi-layer structure, odorous air is adsorbed and sterilized, ensuring the purification effect on odorous air.

[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the scope of the present utility model.
