Description

Cat toilet with automatic flushing and sewage discharge function TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to pet product technical field, specifically disclose a cat toilet with automatic flushing and sewage discharge function. BACKGROUND

[0002] Cat feeding involves excrement cleaning work: generally mainstream is cat litter dry toilet, that is, cat litter is placed in a basin container, and cats defecate in it, and the general cleaning process includes three main steps: 1, manual addition of cat litter, 2, manual collection of excrement (i.e. contaminated cat litter), and 3, manual removal of collected pollutants from the cat litter container.

[0003] In addition, the common "automatic cat litter basin" on the market mainly works by electronic program control, power-driven physical mechanical arm or component to collect clumped cat litter or separate cat litter and excrement. Its main operating characteristics are rotation or push-pull, or shaking, stirring, crushing and other physical displacement of the mechanical arm or component. In addition, its internal structure generally involves more grooves, edges, corners, screens, nets and other irregular contact surfaces and shear surfaces, which can easily cause feces, urine and other pollutants to be contaminated and stuck in the internal cavity of various physical mechanical arms, crushing rotating wheels, teeth or cavities, accumulate over time and become more and more polluted, thus producing odor, insect and bacterial growth and other hygiene problems, which need to be cleaned manually. The complex internal cavity structure makes the cleaning work very tedious and time-consuming, seriously affecting the user experience.

[0004] The excrement temporarily stored in the above "automatic cat litter basin" and the uncleaned pollutants in the internal cavity of the "automatic cat litter basin" become the source of odor and insect and bacterial growth in cat-keeping families.

[0005] According to research observations, with long-term artificial feeding of cats, the living habits of domestic cats have evolved, and some domestic cats have been domesticated and can defecate in a sand-free environment. For example, some cats can use human toilets, squatting toilets and the like to complete the defecation behavior in daily life. However, the structure of human toilets and squatting toilets forms an obstacle to the defecation domestication of most domestic cats in a sand-free environment, and the use of toilets by cats and humans together can cause some health problems affecting human health. At present, there is no toilet specially for cats on the market that can automatically clean the excrement and is suitable for a sand-free environment. In addition, in general modern families, except that the pipe diameter of the human toilet sewer is relatively large, there is no special pipe device for the direct discharge of cat excrement to prevent clogging and the necessary treatment of cat excrement to be smoothly discharged through the sewer with a smaller pipe diameter. TECHNICAL PROBLEM

[0006] Therefore, the utility model aims at providing a cat toilet with automatic flushing and sewage removal function to solve the problems of the current market "automatic cat litter basin" which cannot automatically remove the temporarily stored excrement, the environmental odor, insect, mite and bacterial pollution caused by the temporary storage of excrement and pollution of the cavity facility itself, and to create a special toilet and sewage treatment assembly for cats to use in a sand-free environment.
