Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to cat keeping. [Background technology]

[0002] Generally, cats have a habit of burying their excrement in sand to hide it, so when cats are kept indoors, a tray filled with sand is often used as a cat litter box.

[0003] In addition, cats have a habit of preferring places where they can hide from the outside, such as inside a cardboard box. For this reason, it is possible that spaces such as the inside of a cage, which have no hiding places, are not necessarily comfortable for cats.

[0004] On the other hand, there is also the problem that the sand contained in the cat litter box sticks to the cat's paws and body, and then scatters around as the cat moves around.

[0005] With regard to these points, Patent Document 1 discloses a cage with a base in which a container filled with sand is placed in the internal space at one end of the base of the cage, and an entrance / exit is provided in the ceiling at the other end of the base that connects the internal space to the outside, so that when a cat tries to return to the outside after excreting on the sand placed at one end of the internal space, it will first move to the other end, and then move upward toward the upper entrance, making it difficult for sand adhering to the cat's body to scatter to the outside from the internal space. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] [Patent Document 1] JP 2022-145356 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] In the configuration of the base part (box for raising cats) of the cage with base described in Patent Document 1, the cat moves from the sand stored at one end of the base part through an entrance at the other end to the outside space. Therefore, the sand that falls from the cat's body gradually accumulates on the floor at the other end of the internal space. This sand that has accumulated on the floor at the other end may adhere to the cat's feet or body again as the cat moves back and forth, and may be carried from the inside of the base part to the outside and scattered.

[0008] An object of the present invention is to provide a box for raising cats that can prevent litter used by cats for excretion from scattering to the outside. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The box for raising cats of the present invention comprises a box-shaped main body with an entrance at the top for the cat to enter and exit, a floor unit that is located inside the main body directly below the entrance and forms the floor of the passageway through which the cat passes, and a first tray that is located in a different position inside the main body from the floor unit and contains litter that the cat uses when excreting, the floor unit having the function of collecting litter that falls from the cat's body as the cat moves between the outside and inside of the main body through the entrance, at a position lower than the floor.

[0010] In the box for raising cats of the present invention, a barrier is placed between the floor unit and the first tray, and the height of the barrier may be set so that the cat can climb over it to move between the floor unit and the first tray.

[0011] The box for raising cats of the present invention may include a second tray for accommodating the floor unit, and the second tray may be placed inside the main body with the floor unit accommodated therein. Effect of the Invention

[0012] According to the box for keeping cats of the present invention, the sand that falls from the cat's body when the cat moves between the outside and inside of the main body through the entrance can be stored at a position lower than the floor. This allows the sand that falls from the cat's body to be stored at a position lower than the floor where it is less likely to stick to the cat's legs again, and prevents the sand from scattering outside when the cat moves outside the box with the sand still attached to it.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0014] Hereinafter, a box 10 for keeping cats according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In each drawing, "X" indicates the width direction, "Y" indicates the front-rear direction, and "Z" indicates the up-down direction.

[0015] FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the overall configuration of a box 10 for keeping cats. The box 10 includes a main body 20 having a substantially horizontally elongated rectangular shape in a side view, and a through hole (entrance / exit) 22H communicating with the internal space is provided at one end of an upper portion 22 of the main body 20, and a slit-shaped opening 24A long horizontally is provided at the upper portion of the side portion. An opening 20A communicating with the internal space is formed at the front (near) side of the main body 20, and a door 30 is attached to close the opening 20A. The door 30 is a single-leaf door that is attached so as to be openable and closable via hinges M1 and M2, and by opening the door 30, a container 40 (see FIG. 2) described later can be inserted into or removed from the internal space of the main body 20. In addition, by opening the door 30, cleaning work inside the main body 20 can be easily performed. The door 30 has a slit-shaped opening 30A at the top and a handle 32 on the left side when viewed from the front side.

[0016] 1, the door 30 is provided with a locking mechanism 50 immediately below the handle 32 to prevent the door 30 from opening, i.e., to fix the door 30 in a state in which the opening 20A located at the front end of the main body 20 is closed. The locking mechanism 50 includes a first support arm 52, the lower end of which is fixed to the front end of the main body 20 and the upper end of which extends upward so as to present a substantially L-shape when viewed from the side, a second support arm 54, which has the same shape as the first support arm 52 and is attached to the door 30 so as to be adjacent to the first support arm 52 when the door 30 is closed, and a cross bar 56, the end of which is pivotally supported by the first support arm 52.

[0017] The cross bar 56 is a rod-shaped member that has the function of engaging with the second support arm 54 by rotating from an open position shown by a dashed line to a fixed position shown by a solid line when the door 30 is closed, thereby preventing the container 40 (see FIG. 2) from jumping out of the opening 20A of the main body 20, or preventing a cat from entering or exiting through the opening 20A.

[0018] FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the internal structure of the main body 20 shown in FIG. 1. In FIG. 2, the cat's movement path is shown by a dashed line, and the fall path of the sand SD attached to the cat's body is shown by a broken line. As shown in FIG. 2, the main body 20 houses a container 40 with casters, which is approximately rectangular in side view and has an opening on the top. The longitudinal length of the container 40 is set to a length that can be accommodated in the internal space of the main body 20, more specifically, a length slightly shorter than the longitudinal dimension of the internal space, and is configured to be movable via four casters 42A, 42B attached near each corner of the bottom surface. Therefore, the container 40 can be easily pulled out of the main body 20 with the door 30 open.

[0019] As shown in FIG. 2, a partition member 44 is detachably attached to the center of the container 40. The partition member (barrier) 44 is formed to have an inverted T-shape in a side view, and is composed of a metal bottom plate 44A and a partition wall 44B erected in the center of the bottom plate. The partition wall 44B is made of a wooden member, for example. The height h of the partition wall 44B is set so that a gap is formed between the partition wall 44B and the ceiling 22R of the internal space of the main body 20, allowing the cat to move (come and go) over the partition wall 44B. The bottom plate 44A may be made of a metal member, a wooden member, or a resin member.

[0020] The space inside the container 40 is divided into a first space 40A and a second space 40B by a partition member 44, and a first tray TR1 is placed in the first space 40A, and a second tray TR2 is placed in the second space 40B. The first tray TR1 is a shallow-bottomed container formed of resin or the like, and has a generally rectangular shape in a plan view. On the other hand, the second tray TR2 is a container having a similar configuration to the first tray TR1, except that it is formed to have a slightly deeper bottom than the first tray TR1. The first tray TR1 is provided with a floor unit 60, and the second tray TR2 contains litter SD, or so-called cat litter, which cats use when they excrete.

[0021] FIG. 3(a) is a plan view showing the configuration of the floor unit 60. As shown in FIG. 3(a), the floor unit 60 includes a pair of legs 62A, 62B having an elongated, approximately rectangular parallelepiped shape, and a number of floor materials 64A, 64B, 64C, ... (hereinafter, referred to as board materials "64" when there is no need to distinguish them) arranged on the pair of legs 62A, 62B, and constitutes the floor of the passage through which the cat passes. Each floor material 64 is a member made of, for example, resin or wood that constitutes an elongated floor surface, and is arranged at equal intervals so that gaps are formed between them. The floor materials 64 constitute the floor surface of the passage through which the cat moves through the first space 40A, and have the role of preventing the sand SD that has fallen from the cat's body from adhering to the cat's body again by dropping the sand SD from the gaps between the floor materials 64 onto the bottom surface of the first tray TR1 below. The corners of the upper surface of each floor material 64 are chamfered, and are formed into an approximately semicircular shape in a side view. This makes it easier for the sand SD to fall to a position lower than the floor surface when the cat walks on the floor material 64.

[0022] In addition, since the floor unit 60 is installed on the container 40 while being removably housed in the first tray TR1, when the container 40 is pulled out from the main body 20 of the box 10, it is advantageous in that sand SD is less likely to scatter onto the floor unit 60 by removing it from the container 40 while it is housed in the first tray TR1, making cleaning work easier to perform.

[0023] In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the upper surface of the floor material 64 is formed to have an approximately semicircular shape when viewed from the side, but the upper surface may be formed to have an approximately rectangular shape when viewed from the side, or may have another polygonal shape.

[0024] Here, Fig. 3(b) is a plan view showing the configuration of a floor unit 70 which is a modified example of the above-mentioned floor unit 60, and Fig. 3(c) is a diagram showing the configuration when viewed from the side of the floor unit 70 shown in Fig. 3(b). As shown in Fig. 3(b) and Fig. 3(c), the floor unit 70 according to this modified example is made of a resin member, and is composed of a floor material 72 which has a number of through holes H1, H2, H3, ... (hereinafter, when there is no particular need to distinguish them, they will be appropriately referred to as through holes "H") in a lattice shape in a plan view, and protruding parts 74A, 74B, 74C, ... (hereinafter, when there is no particular need to distinguish them, they will be appropriately referred to as protruding parts "74") which function as legs supporting the floor material 72.

[0025] As a result, when the cat moves on the flooring 72 of the floor unit 70, the sand SD that falls from the cat's body falls through the through-holes H of the flooring 72 and accumulates on the bottom surface of the first tray TR1 below (in other words, is stored). When using the floor unit 70 according to this modification, the same effects as those of the floor unit 60 in the above embodiment can be obtained.

[0026] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, casters 12A, 12B, and 12C (hereinafter, referred to as casters "12" as appropriate unless there is a need to distinguish them) of the same configuration are attached to the bottom surface of box 10 near each corner. Caster 12 includes wheel 14 and stopper 15, and wheel 14 can be made rotatable by rotating stopper 15 to the release position shown by the solid line in Figure 2. This allows main body 20 to be easily moved.

[0027] In addition, the rotation of the wheels 14 of the casters 12 is restricted by rotating the stoppers 15 to the restricting positions shown by dashed lines in Fig. 2. This makes it possible to fix the main body 20 so that it does not move.

[0028] Next, a method of using the box 10 will be described with reference to Fig. 2. As shown by the dashed line in Fig. 2, the cat descends from the through-hole 22H provided in the upper part 22 of the main body 20 onto the floor unit 60 installed on the first tray TR1 in the first space 40A, then climbs over the partition wall 44B and moves onto the second tray TR2 containing cat litter in the second space 40B. Then, the cat excretes feces, urine, etc. on the litter SD in the second tray TR2, then climbs over the partition wall 44B again, passes over the floor unit 60 placed on the first tray TR1, and moves to the outside of the box 10 from the through-hole 22H provided in the upper part 22 of the main body 20.

[0029] Here, when the cat moves, such as when it climbs over the partition wall 44B from above the sand SD contained in the second tray TR2 and passes over the floor unit 60, or when it passes from the floor unit 60 through the upper through-hole 22H to the outside of the main body 20, the sand SD that has adhered to the cat's body will fall onto the floor unit 60.

[0030] In addition, since the upper surface of the flooring 64 in the floor unit 60 is substantially semicircular in side view, the sand SD that falls onto the flooring 64 does not remain on the upper (floor) surface of the floor units 60, but falls through the gaps between the floor units 60 onto the bottom surface of the first tray TR1 directly below. This makes it possible to prevent the sand SD that has fallen from the cat's body from adhering to the cat's body again as it moves across the flooring 64.

[0031] According to the box 10 for keeping cats according to the first embodiment, when the cat moves between the outside of the main body 20 and the inside of the main body 20 through the through-hole 22H, the sand SD that falls from the cat's body is stored at a position lower than the floor surface. In this way, the sand SD that falls from the cat's body is stored at a position lower than the floor surface, so that even if the cat moves back and forth on the floor surface, it is kept in a state where it does not come into contact with the cat's body, for example, legs. As a result, it is possible to prevent the sand SD that falls from the cat's body from adhering to the cat's legs or the like again, and the cat from moving to the outside of the box 10 in the attached state, causing the sand SD to be carried to the outside (outside) of the box 10 and scattered around the surroundings.

[0032] Next, a box 80 for keeping cats according to a second embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 4(a) and 4(b). Fig. 4(a) is a diagram showing the configuration of the box 80, and Fig. 4(b) is a diagram showing the internal configuration of the box 80 shown in Fig. 4(a). In Fig. 4(b), the cat's movement path is indicated by a dashed line. In the following description of the box 80, the parts that are different in configuration from the box 10 of the first embodiment will be mainly described, and parts that are in common will be appropriately indicated by the same reference numerals and will not be described as appropriate.

[0033] As shown in Figures 4(a) and 4(b), the box 80 includes a main body 82 with an opening 82A formed on one side over the entire length of the main body 82, and has substantially the same configuration as the box 10 in the above embodiment, except that double-door doors 84A and 84B are attached to the main body 82 so as to cover the opening 82A. The double-door doors 84A and 84B are a pair of left and right doors, with the left door 84A attached to the main body 82 via hinges M3 and M4 so as to be rotatable at the left end, and the right door 84B attached to the main body 82 via hinges M5 and M6 so as to be rotatable at the right end. Slit-shaped openings 86A and 86B are provided at the top of each door 84A and 84B so as to extend horizontally.

[0034] Handles 88A and 88B are provided at the end of each of the doors 84A and 84B opposite to the end where the hinges M3 to M6 are attached. A lock mechanism 90 having substantially the same configuration and function as the lock mechanism 50 is provided directly below the handles 88A and 88B of each of the doors 84A and 84B. The lock mechanism 90 includes a first support arm 92 having one end fixed to the left door 84A and the other end extending upward so as to present a substantially L-shape when viewed from the side, a second support arm 94 having the same shape as the first support arm 92 and attached to the right door 84B so as to be adjacent to the first support arm 92 when the doors 84A and 84B are closed, and a cross bar 96 having an end pivotally supported by the first support arm 92.

[0035] This cross bar 96 is a rod-shaped member that has the function of fixing the doors 84A, 84B from opening by engaging with the second support arm 94 when the doors 84A, 84B are closed, by rotating from the open position shown by the dashed line to the fixed position shown by the solid line.

[0036] This serves to prevent a first tray TR3 and a second tray TR4, which will be described later, from jumping out of the opening 82A of the main body 82, or to prevent a cat from entering or exiting through the opening 82A.

[0037] As shown in Fig. 4(b), this box 80 is configured to accommodate a partition member 44, a first tray TR3 directly below the through hole 22H with a partition wall 44B of the partition member 44 in between, and a second tray TR4 on the opposite side of the first tray TR3 with the partition wall 44B in between. The first tray TR3 has a similar configuration to the first tray TR1 in the first embodiment, and the second tray TR4 has a similar configuration to the second tray TR2 in the first embodiment. Then, the floor unit 60 is placed in the tray TR3, and sand SD is placed in the tray TR4.

[0038] In this case, the trays TR3, TR4 can be removed and installed from inside the main body 82 by opening the doors 84A, 84B without using a container 40 with casters, which has the advantage of making cleaning work etc. easier to perform.

[0039] Next, a cat breeding system 100 according to a third embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 5 to 7. Fig. 5 is a perspective view showing the overall configuration of the breeding system 100. Fig. 6 is an exploded perspective view of the communication box 110 and box 112 included in Fig. 5. Fig. 7 is a diagram showing a schematic configuration of the front side of the breeding system 100. In Figs. 5 and 7, the cat's movement route is indicated by a dashed line.

[0040] 5 to 7, the breeding system 100 includes a box 112 and a breeding cage 115 that are connected to each other via a communication box 110 so that cats can come and go. This box 112 has almost the same configuration as the box 10 in the first embodiment, so in the following explanation of the breeding system 100, the parts that differ from the box 10 in the first embodiment will be mainly explained, and the parts that have the same configuration will be denoted by the same reference numerals as appropriate and will not be explained.

[0041] 5 and 6, the communication box 110 has an opening 110B formed on the bottom side, and is fixed to the box 112 via four fixing attachments AT1 to AT4 fixed to the top of the box 112 with bolts or the like so as to cover the through-hole 22H. In addition, a communication pipe P1 communicating with the inside of the breeding cage 115 is attached to the surface of the box 112 facing the breeding cage 115.

[0042] The connecting pipe P1 is, for example, made of a resin material such as a PVC pipe, and has a function as a communication passage that connects the inside of the breeding cage 115 with the inside of the communication box 110, and both end portions are connected and fixed to the communication box 110 and the breeding cage 115 via mounting members not shown. An opening 110A having a generally rectangular shape when viewed from the front is provided on the side surface on the front side of the communication box 110. Guide rail members 114A and 114B are provided on both upper and lower ends of the opening 110A, and a panel 116 is attached via the guide rail members 114A and 114B. The panel 116 is provided with a protrusion 116A that functions as a handle. The connecting pipe P1 may be a hollow pipe having a rectangular cross section, such as a box-shaped pipe (in other words, a square pipe shape), in addition to a ring-shaped pipe.

[0043] Panel 116 is attached between guide rail members 114A and 114B in a state in which it can slide between a blocking position where it blocks opening 110A and an open position where it opens (in other words, exposes) opening 110A via protrusion 116A. Therefore, by moving panel 116 to the blocking position, it is possible to prevent cats from leaving breeding system 100 for an outside indoor space. In addition, by moving panel 116 to the open position, it is possible to allow cats to freely move between inside breeding system 100 and the indoor space outside breeding system 100.

[0044] The length of the communication box 110 in the front-rear direction is formed to be about half the length of the box 112 in the front-rear direction, and the communication box 110 is installed at the back side of the box 112. This has the advantage that when a cat comes and goes through the opening 110A formed in the side surface on the front side of the communication box 110, the front (front) upper part 22 of the box 112 can be used as a foothold for the cat, making it easier for the cat to come and go through the opening 110A.

[0045] 7, the breeding cage 115 is provided with a shelf 115A directly below the connecting part of the connecting pipe P1 on the breeding cage 115 side. This allows the cats to easily come and go via the connecting pipe P1.

[0046] This box 112 has a communication box 110 fixedly installed so as to cover a through hole 22H provided in the upper part 22, and is configured so that the cat can move into the breeding cage 115 through a communication pipe P1 attached to the side part of the communication box 110 adjacent to the breeding cage 115.

[0047] According to the cat breeding system 100 of the third embodiment, instead of installing a cat litter box such as a tray containing sand inside the breeding cage 115, it is possible to install it inside the box 112, thereby preventing cat litter from scattering inside and outside the breeding cage 115.

[0048] Next, a breeding system 120 according to a fourth embodiment will be described with reference to Figs. 8 and 9. Fig. 8 is a perspective view showing the configuration of the breeding system 120 according to the fourth embodiment. Fig. 9 is an exploded perspective view showing the installation state of the breeding system 120 excluding the breeding cage 126 shown in Fig. 8. In the following description of the breeding system 120, mainly the parts of the configuration that differ from the box 10 in the first embodiment will be described, and the parts that have the same configuration will be appropriately denoted by the same reference numerals and will not be described.

[0049] As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, the breeding system 120 includes two boxes 122, 124 and a breeding cage 126 placed on the boxes 122, 124. The two boxes 122, 124 each have substantially the same configuration as the box 10 of the first embodiment, and are connected and fixed to each other in a parallel state using bolts or the like. Since the boxes 122, 124 have the same configuration, the following description will mainly describe only the box 122, and the description of the box 124 will be omitted as appropriate. The breeding cage 126 is fixed on the two boxes 122, 124 via fixing attachments AT5 to AT8. Each of the fixing attachments AT5 to AT8 is fixed to each corner, which becomes the outer periphery, using a bolt or the like when the two boxes 122, 124 are connected to each other.

[0050] According to the breeding system 120 of the fourth embodiment, the cat can enter the inside of the box 122 through the through-hole 22H in the upper part of the box 122, so that the same effect as that of the box 10 in the first embodiment can be obtained.

[0051] In addition, in the breeding system 120, a second tray (not shown) containing sand for cats to use for excretion can be installed in each of the two boxes 122, 124, similar to the box 10 of the first embodiment. Since cats have a tendency to prefer places that have their own scent, when multiple cats, for example two cats, are kept in the breeding system 120, it is possible to share the excretion area by installing a second tray containing sand in each of the boxes 122, 124. Therefore, there is also an advantage that the breeding environment is less stressful for the cats even when multiple cats are kept.

[0052] In the breeding system 120, a second tray containing sand SD can be placed inside each of the two boxes 122, 124, just like the box 10 of the first embodiment, but it is also possible to place a second tray containing sand SD in only one of the boxes, and use the other box as a hiding place for the cat without placing a second tray or sand SD in it. Even in this case, there is an advantage that the space inside the box can be used as a hiding place that the cat likes, so that a good breeding environment with less stress for the cat can be created.

[0053] 10 is a diagram showing the configuration of a breeding system 140 which is a modified example of the breeding system 120 according to the fourth embodiment. In the following description of the breeding system 140, only the parts of the configuration that are different from the breeding system 120 according to the fourth embodiment will be described, and the parts that have the same configuration will be appropriately denoted by the same reference numerals and will not be described.

[0054] The breeding system 140 includes a box 142 having substantially the same configuration as the box 10 in the first embodiment, a box 144 having substantially the same configuration as the box 80 in the second embodiment, and a breeding cage 146. The boxes 142 and 144 are connected to each other using bolts or the like. The breeding system 140 in this case can also achieve the same effects as the breeding system 120 in the fourth embodiment.

[0055] The present invention can be implemented in various forms that include improvements, modifications, or variations based on the knowledge of a person skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention. In addition, the present invention can be implemented in a form in which any of the invention-specific features are replaced with other technologies within the scope of the same action or effect.
