[0033] A plurality of strip-shaped protrusions 121 are provided on the inner side of the opening and closing door 12, and strip grooves 122 for cat litter to flow are formed between adjacent strip-shaped protrusions 121. When the pet steps on the strip-shaped protrusions 121, the strip-shaped protrusions 121 can effectively increase the friction of the pet's paws, making it less likely for the pet to slip when stepping on the opening and closing door 12. At the same time, after the pet comes out of the litter box 14, when the paws carry cat litter, the paws are deformed when stepping on the strip-shaped protrusions 121, and the cat litter separates from the pet's paws and falls into the strip grooves 122. After the opening and closing door 12 is closed, the cat litter can fall into the litter box again along the strip grooves 122.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 4 and 5. Figure 4 is a three-dimensional view of the rotating shaft of the cat litter box of the present invention, and Figure 5 is a three-dimensional view of the motor of the cat litter box of the present invention. Bar-shaped through holes 1231 are respectively provided at both ends of the hollow column 123, a first fixing groove 1241 is provided on the motor 124, and a second fixing groove 1251 is provided on the rotating shaft 125. The first fixing groove 1241 and the second fixing groove 1251 overlap with the bar-shaped through hole 1231. The bar-shaped through hole 1231 is used to facilitate the first fixing groove 1241 of the motor 124 and the second fixing groove 1251 of the rotating shaft 125, thereby facilitating the fixing of the motor 124 and the rotating shaft 125 on the housing 11, and at the same time, it is also convenient to disassemble the opening and closing door 12.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 6, which is a three-dimensional diagram 2 of the cat litter box of the present invention. Mounting holes 1111 are provided on two opposite sides of the lower part of the opening 111. The motor 124 and the rotating shaft 125 are connected in the mounting holes 1111. The mounting holes 1111 are used to fix the motor 124 and the rotating shaft 125. When the motor 124 rotates, the motor 124 can drive the opening and closing door 12 to open or close the opening 111.

[0036] The strip-shaped protrusion 121 is wavy, which can further prevent the pet from stepping on the opening and closing door 12 and slipping.

[0037] A litter box 14 is further provided at the lower portion of the housing 11 , and the litter box 14 is slidably connected to the housing 11 for conveniently adding cat litter.

[0038] A fixing opening 141 for pulling the sand basin 14 to move is provided on the outside of the sand basin 14 . A finger can be inserted into the fixing opening 141 to facilitate pulling the sand basin 14 , thereby facilitating the extraction of the sand basin 14 from the housing 11 .

[0039] The housing 11 is also provided with a control panel 15 , which is located above the opening 111 . The control panel 15 is used to control the litter box. At the same time, the control panel 15 is located above the opening 111 , which makes it easy to operate the control panel 15 .

[0040] Working principle:

[0041] The cat litter box includes a shell 11, a collection device 13 located in the shell 11, a litter box 14 located on one side of the collection device 13, an opening and closing door 12 rotatably connected to the shell 11, a control panel 15 located on the shell 11, and a litter box 14 located at the lower part of the shell 11. The outer side of the litter box 14 is provided with a fixed port 141. The litter box 14 can be slidably connected to the shell 11 for convenient addition of cat litter. An opening 111 is provided on the shell 11, and the opening and closing door 12 is connected to the opening 111. The height of one end of the opening and closing door 12 near the opening 111 is lower than the height of the other end of the opening and closing door 12. The opening and closing door 12 is wavy, and the two sides of the opening and closing door 12 near one end of the opening and closing door 12 are respectively A rotating shaft 125 and a motor 124 are provided. A hollow column 123 is provided on the side of the opening and closing door 12 close to the opening 111. The motor 124 and the rotating shaft 125 are located in the hollow column 123. The motor 124 and the rotating shaft 125 can move in the hollow column 123. Bar-shaped through holes 1231 are respectively provided at both ends of the hollow column 123. A first fixing groove 1241 opposite to the bar-shaped through hole 1231 is provided on the motor 124, and a second fixing groove 1251 opposite to the bar-shaped through hole 1231 is provided on the rotating shaft 125. A plurality of bar-shaped protrusions 121 are provided on the inner side of the opening and closing door 12, and a bar groove 122 for cat litter to flow is formed between adjacent bar protrusions 121.

[0042] When the opening and closing door 12 is in the closed state, when the pet needs to defecate, the motor 124 rotates and drives the hollow column 123 to rotate. Since the motor 124 and the rotating shaft 125 are located at both ends of the hollow column 123, the opening and closing door 12 rotates with the hollow column 123 as the rotation center, thereby opening the opening 111 of the shell 11. When the opening and closing door 12 rotates to a limited position, the motor 124 stops rotating. At this time, the opening and closing door 12 is in the open state. The opening and closing door 12 forms a bridge for the pet to enter, which is convenient for the pet to enter. When the pet steps on the opening and closing door 12, due to the action of the strip protrusion 121 and the wave shape on the strip protrusion 121, it can effectively prevent the pet from slipping on the opening and closing door 12, avoiding When the pet enters or walks out of the litter box 14, the pet's paws will form a bridge after opening the door 12, which makes it easier for the pet to enter or walk out of the litter box 14, making it more convenient to use.

[0043] After the cat litter box of this preferred embodiment is opened by the motor-driven opening and closing door, the opening and closing door forms a bridge, which is convenient for pets to step on. When the pet needs to defecate, the pet steps on the opening and closing door, which can effectively prevent the pet from jumping. When the pet defecates, the pet's paws can still step on the opening and closing door, which again prevents the pet from jumping, effectively avoiding harm to the pet, and making it safer and more convenient to use.

[0044] In summary, although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, the above preferred embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. A person skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be based on the scope defined by the claims.
