Description
A portable smart pet toilet Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of pet toilets, and more particularly to a portable smart pet toilet. Background Technology
[0002] With social progress and improved living standards, more and more pets are entering people's homes. Currently, cats and dogs are generally kept indoors in urban households, and pets are trained to defecate in designated areas. As a result, various pet toilets have appeared on the market. Traditional pet toilets usually have an open design, such as cat litter boxes. After the pets have finished defecating, their feces are exposed to the indoor environment, and the odor they emit pollutes the indoor air and reduces the quality of the indoor environment. Although deodorizing cat litter is commonly used on the market to collect feces and mask odors, it requires manual cleaning at regular intervals, which is time-consuming and laborious. If it is not cleaned in time, the accumulated feces and damp environment in the toilet will breed a large number of bacteria, threatening the health of family members. In addition, the long-term use of cat litter will also increase the cost of pet ownership, which urgently needs to be addressed. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the shortcomings of the prior art, this application provides a portable smart pet toilet.
[0004] The above-mentioned inventive objective of this application is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0005] The toilet shell has a toilet bowl on its outside, and the bottom of the toilet bowl has a first connecting hole.
[0006] A clean water tank, which is located inside the toilet shell and is used to store clean water;
[0007] A clean water delivery system for delivering clean water from the clean water tank to the inside of the toilet bowl;
[0008] A wastewater tank is disposed inside the toilet shell and connected to the toilet bowl through the first connecting hole;
[0009] A sensing system, which is installed on the toilet shell and controlled to the water delivery system, is used to sense a pet located in the toilet bowl.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when a pet enters the litter box to defecate, the sensing system detects the pet's presence and, after confirming the defecation behavior, sends a signal to the clean water delivery system. Upon receiving the signal, the clean water delivery system delivers the clean water stored in the clean water tank to the inside of the litter box, so that the pet's excrement flows into the wastewater tank through the first connecting hole under the flushing action of the clean water, completing the process of the pet using the toilet and immediate flushing. Compared with traditional pet toilets, through immediate flushing, pet excrement can be quickly covered and flushed into the closed wastewater tank, which can significantly reduce the emission of odors indoors. The wet flushing method keeps the litter box clean, reducing the chance of germ growth, thereby improving the quality of the indoor environment. Moreover, there is no need for manual cleaning at regular intervals. Through the automatic flushing and wastewater collection functions, the frequency and intensity of manual cleaning are reduced, and the use of cat litter can be avoided, thus reducing the cost of pet ownership.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured as follows: the clean water delivery system includes a water pump, a connecting pipe, a suction pipe, and a delivery pipe. The water pump is disposed inside the toilet shell. The clean water tank has a connection hole for the connecting pipe to pass through, and a waterproof sealing ring is coaxially disposed at the connection hole. The connecting pipe is vertically disposed inside the clean water tank through the connection hole and the waterproof sealing ring, and its bottom end is connected to the water pump. One end of the suction pipe is connected to the top end of the connecting pipe, and the other end is located at the bottom of the clean water tank. The delivery pipe is disposed inside the toilet shell, with one end connected to the water pump and the other end disposed at the toilet bowl.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the sensing system detects when a pet uses the toilet and sends a signal to the water pump to start the pump. Clean water is drawn from the bottom of the clean water tank through the water pipe and transported to the water pump through the connecting pipe. Then, the clean water is transported to the inside of the toilet bowl through the delivery pipe to complete the flushing process. One end of the water pipe is located at the bottom of the clean water tank so that it can be in contact with the clean water in the tank at any time. Together with the connecting pipe, they form a delivery channel, which enables the water pump to draw clean water efficiently. Furthermore, the clean water tank can be removed from the toilet shell through the connection hole for easy maintenance and cleaning. At the same time, the waterproof sealing ring ensures the seal between the clean water tank and the connecting pipe, preventing water leakage.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the present application may be further configured such that: the delivery pipe includes a pump connection pipe and an annular water delivery pipe, one end of the pump connection pipe is connected to the water pump and the other end is connected to the annular water delivery pipe, the annular water delivery pipe surrounds the periphery of the toilet bowl, and a plurality of flushing capillaries are connected to the inner side of the annular water delivery pipe, the plurality of flushing capillaries are arranged along the circumference of the annular water delivery pipe and all face the inside of the toilet bowl.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a pump connection pipe, a location for connecting the water pump to the ring-shaped water supply pipe can be provided. The ring-shaped water supply pipe is set around the perimeter of the litter box to ensure that clean water can be evenly distributed around the litter box. Combined with several flushing capillary tubes set along the circumference of the ring-shaped water supply pipe, clean water can cover the pet excrement in the form of a fine, high-pressure, and uniform water flow, reducing blind spots in flushing and odor emission, and achieving a more refined and comprehensive flushing.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured such that the diameters of the pump inlet pipe, the annular water delivery pipe, and the flushing capillary decrease sequentially.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the pump pipe, the ring water supply pipe and the flushing capillary tube with decreasing diameters allows the clean water to be gradually dispersed and refined during the transmission process, while increasing the flow rate to ensure that the clean water is sprayed evenly and meticulously into the toilet bowl, reducing blind spots in flushing and improving the flushing effect.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured as follows: the clean water tank has an inlet for connecting to an external water source; a linkage rod is rotatably installed inside the clean water tank; a float ball and a water inlet control block are provided on the linkage rod; there is a closed position on the rotation trajectory of the linkage rod; when the linkage rod rotates to the closed position, the water inlet control block is inserted and engaged with the water inlet.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the water level in the clean water tank drops, the float ball drops accordingly and drives the linkage rod to rotate downwards, thereby causing the water inlet control block to disengage from the water inlet. This allows external water to enter the clean water tank through the water inlet, completing the automatic replenishment of clean water. When the water level rises until it contacts the float ball, the float ball rises accordingly and drives the linkage rod to rotate, thereby driving the water inlet control block to rotate until it is in the closed position. At this time, the water inlet control block continues to engage with the water inlet under the action of the buoyancy of the clean water, preventing water from continuing to enter and completing the automatic replenishment and blocking of clean water. This realizes the automatic water replenishment function of the clean water tank and prevents overflow, greatly improving the convenience of pet toilets, enhancing user experience, and saving water resources and energy consumption, meeting the requirements of energy conservation and emission reduction.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment, the present application may be further configured such that the top of the water tank is open and has an overlapping top cover.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution and setting a top cover that can be detached and connected, users can remove the top cover and pour in clean water to replenish the water supply when it is inconvenient for them to connect to an external water source.
[0021] In a preferred embodiment, this application may be further configured such that: the toilet shell has a receiving groove for placing the sewage tank, the top of the receiving groove is connected to the first connecting hole, the top of the sewage tank has a second connecting hole, when the sewage tank is located in the receiving groove, the first connecting hole is connected to the second connecting hole, a sewage pipe is connected to the outside of the sewage tank, and a cap is fastened to the open end of the sewage pipe.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the receiving trough provides an installation position for the sewage tank inside the toilet shell. When the sewage tank is located inside the receiving trough, the first connecting hole of the toilet bowl is aligned and connected with the second connecting hole on the top of the sewage tank to form a smooth discharge channel. At the same time, with the sewage pipe outside the sewage tank, after the sewage tank has collected a designated water level, the sewage tank can be directly removed, and pet excrement can be discharged into the external environment through the sewage pipe. In addition, a cover is set to ensure the sealing of the sewage pipe when excrement is not being discharged.
[0023] In a preferred embodiment, this application can be further configured such that: the toilet shell is provided with a sensor indicator light, the wastewater tank is equipped with a water level monitor, and the water level monitor is connected to the sensor indicator light and the clean water delivery system.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the water level monitor can monitor the water level changes inside the sewage tank in real time. When the water level monitor detects that the water level in the sewage tank has reached the preset threshold, it can send a signal to the sensor indicator light to make it light up or change color, so as to remind the user to clean the sewage tank in time. It can also send a signal to the clean water delivery system to stop any form of flushing to avoid sewage overflow, thereby improving the convenience of pet toilets.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the present application may be further configured such that the sensing system includes an infrared heat sensor and a control panel, the infrared heat sensor being disposed on the toilet shell near the toilet bowl, and the control panel controlling the connection between the infrared heat sensor and the water pump.
[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, when a pet uses the toilet, the infrared heat sensor can sense the pet on the litter box and send a signal to the control panel to start the water pump. At the same time, according to the preset program of the control panel, the water pump can be started again after the pet leaves for a short time, so as to avoid disturbing the pet when it uses the toilet.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the present application may be further configured such that: the potty is equipped with a partition for supporting the pet, the partition having a plurality of excretion holes, the size of the plurality of excretion holes gradually increasing from the outside of the partition to the center of the partition.
[0028] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a partition, a support position can be provided for the pet when using the toilet. Several drainage holes are also provided to ensure that after the pet urinates on the partition, the excrement can fall smoothly into the waste tank below through the drainage holes. The partition is cleaned by a clean water delivery system. Furthermore, the drainage holes gradually increase in size from the outside of the partition to the center. When the pet uses the toilet, the smaller drainage holes provide a good standing position, guiding the pet to stand near the outside of the partition with the smaller drainage holes before urinating through the larger holes. This improves the pet's comfort when using the toilet and increases the pet's acceptance of the toilet.
[0029] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0030] 1. When a pet enters the litter box to defecate, the sensor system detects the pet's presence and, after confirming the defecation behavior, sends a signal to the clean water delivery system. Upon receiving the signal, the clean water delivery system delivers the clean water stored in the clean water tank into the litter box, allowing the pet's excrement to flow into the wastewater tank through the first connecting hole under the flushing action of the clean water. This completes the process of the pet using the toilet and immediate flushing. Compared to traditional pet toilets, this immediate flushing method allows pet excrement to be quickly covered and flushed into the closed wastewater tank, significantly reducing the spread of odors indoors. The wet flushing method keeps the litter box clean, reducing the chance of germ growth and thus improving the quality of the indoor environment. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for regular manual cleaning, reducing the frequency and intensity of manual cleaning through automatic flushing and wastewater collection. It also avoids the use of cat litter, thereby reducing pet ownership costs.
[0031] 2. After the sensor system detects that the pet has used the toilet, it sends a signal to the water pump to start the pump. The pump draws clean water from the bottom of the clean water tank through the suction pipe and delivers the clean water to the pump through the connecting pipe. Then, it is delivered to the toilet bowl through the delivery pipe to complete the flushing process. One end of the suction pipe is located at the bottom of the clean water tank so that it can always contact the clean water in the tank. Together with the connecting pipe, it forms a delivery channel, allowing the water pump to draw clean water efficiently. The connection hole allows the clean water tank to be removed from the toilet shell for easy maintenance and cleaning. At the same time, the waterproof sealing ring ensures the seal between the clean water tank and the connecting pipe, preventing water leakage.
[0032] 3. Improved flushing pipe design: Through a water pump and a series of pump connection pipes, ring-shaped water delivery pipes, and flushing capillary tubes, the pipe design increases pressure in stages, achieving efficient cleaning while saving water resources.
[0033] 4. Improve the valve device system of the existing flush toilet. The combination of float ball, water inlet control block and water inlet can realize the small size and lightweight installation of the clean water tank, reduce the waste of tank space and increase the space utilization rate.
[0034] 5. Compared to traditional dry litter boxes on the market, this product uses a wet cleaning method to achieve an odor-free effect, reducing pet ownership costs and making it easier to create a fresher environment.
[0035] 6. It automatically cleans and collects pet excrement, and uses a combination of sensor indicator lights and a water level monitor to intelligently remind users to clean the wastewater tank, greatly reducing the user's workload and improving the user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0044] Furthermore, the term "and / or" in this article is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, or B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this article, unless otherwise specified, generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.
[0045] A portable smart pet toilet of this application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0046] Referring to Figures 1 to 5, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, the portable smart pet toilet includes a toilet shell 1, a clean water tank 2, a clean water delivery system 3, a waste water tank 4, and a sensing system. A litter box 5 is mounted on the outside of the toilet shell 1, with a first connecting hole 6 at the bottom. The clean water tank 2 is located inside the toilet shell 1 and stores clean water. The clean water delivery system 3 delivers the clean water from the tank 2 to the litter box 5. The waste water tank 4 is located inside the toilet shell 1 and connected to the litter box 5 via the first connecting hole 6. The sensing system is located on the toilet shell 1 and connected to the clean water delivery system 3. The sensing system detects a pet located in the litter box 5. When a pet enters the litter box 5 to defecate, the sensing system detects the pet's presence and, after confirming the defecation behavior,... A signal is transmitted to the clean water delivery system 3. Upon receiving the signal, the clean water delivery system 3 delivers the clean water stored in the clean water tank 2 to the inside of the litter box 5. This allows pet excrement to flow into the wastewater tank 4 through the first connecting hole 6 under the flushing action of the clean water, completing the process of pet toileting and immediate flushing. Compared to traditional pet toilets, this method allows pet excrement to be quickly covered and flushed into the closed wastewater tank 4, significantly reducing the spread of odors indoors. The wet flushing method keeps the litter box 5 clean, reducing the chance of bacterial growth and thus improving the quality of the indoor environment. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for regular manual cleaning. The automatic flushing and wastewater collection functions reduce the frequency and intensity of manual cleaning and also eliminate the need for cat litter, thereby reducing pet ownership costs.
[0047] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the clean water delivery system 3 includes a water pump 31, a connecting pipe 32, a suction pipe 33, and a delivery pipe 34. The water pump 31 is located inside the toilet shell 1. The clean water tank 2 has a connecting hole 35 for the connecting pipe 32 to pass through, and a waterproof sealing ring 36 is coaxially arranged at the connecting hole 35. The connecting pipe 32 is vertically arranged inside the clean water tank 2 through the connecting hole 35 and the waterproof sealing ring 36, and its bottom end is connected to the water pump 31. One end of the suction pipe 33 is connected to the top of the connecting pipe 32, and the other end is located at the bottom of the clean water tank 2. The delivery pipe 34 is located inside the toilet shell 1, with one end connected to the water pump 31 and the other end set in the toilet bowl 5. During operation, the sensing system detects pets such as... After the toilet is in use, a signal is sent to the water pump 31 to start the water pump 31. The water pump 31 draws clean water from the bottom of the clean water tank 2 through the water pipe 33 and is transported to the water pump 31 through the connecting pipe 32. Then, the clean water is transported to the inside of the toilet bowl 5 through the delivery pipe 34 to complete the flushing process. One end of the water pipe 33 is located at the bottom of the clean water tank 2 so that it can contact the clean water in the clean water tank 2 at any time. Together with the connecting pipe 32, it forms a delivery channel, which enables the water pump 31 to draw clean water efficiently. Furthermore, the clean water tank 2 can be removed from the toilet shell 1 through the connection hole 35 for easy maintenance and cleaning. At the same time, the waterproof sealing ring 36 ensures the sealing between the clean water tank 2 and the connecting pipe 32 to prevent water leakage.
[0048] It should be noted that a filter screen (not shown in the figure) is installed inside the connecting pipe 32 to prevent pipe blockage and ensure the smooth operation of the clean water delivery system 3.
[0049] Furthermore, the delivery pipe 34 includes a pump connection pipe 341 and an annular water delivery pipe 342. One end of the pump connection pipe 341 is connected to the water pump 31 and the other end is connected to the annular water delivery pipe 342. The annular water delivery pipe 342 surrounds the toilet bowl 5. Several flushing capillaries 343 are connected to the inner side of the annular water delivery pipe 342. The several flushing capillaries 343 are arranged along the circumference of the annular water delivery pipe 342 and all face the inside of the toilet bowl 5. By setting the pump connection pipe 341, the annular water delivery pipe 342 can be provided with an installation position to connect to the water pump 31. By setting the annular water delivery pipe 342 around the toilet bowl 5, it is ensured that clean water can be evenly distributed around the toilet bowl 5. With the several flushing capillaries 343 arranged along the circumference of the annular water delivery pipe 342, clean water can cover the pet excrement in the form of a small, high-pressure, and uniform water flow, reducing the washing dead corners and odor emission, and achieving a more refined and comprehensive washing.
[0050] Furthermore, the diameters of the pump pipe 341, the annular water supply pipe 342, and the flushing capillary pipe 343 decrease sequentially. This sequentially decreasing diameter design allows the clean water to be gradually dispersed and refined during transmission, while increasing the flow rate. This ensures that the clean water is sprayed evenly and meticulously into the toilet bowl 5, reducing blind spots and improving the flushing effect.
[0051] Additionally, as shown in Figure 4, the clean water tank 2 has an inlet 7 for connecting to an external water source. A linkage rod 8 is rotatably mounted inside the clean water tank 2. A float ball 9 and a water inlet control block 10 are mounted on the linkage rod 8. The linkage rod 8 has a closed position along its rotational trajectory. When the linkage rod 8 reaches the closed position, the water inlet control block 10 engages with the inlet 7. When the water level in the clean water tank 2 drops, the float ball descends, causing the linkage rod 8 to rotate downwards, thereby disengaging the water inlet control block 10 from the inlet 7, allowing external water to enter through the inlet 7. The water tank 2 is filled with clean water, which automatically replenishes the water. When the water level rises until it touches the float ball, the float ball 9 rises and drives the linkage rod 8 to rotate, which in turn drives the water inlet control block 10 to rotate until it is in the closed position. At this time, the water inlet control block 10 continues to engage with the water inlet 7 under the action of the buoyancy of the clean water, preventing water from continuing to enter and completing the automatic water replenishment blocking. This realizes the automatic water replenishment function of the clean water tank 2 and prevents overflow, greatly improving the convenience of pet toilets, improving user experience, and saving water resources and energy consumption, meeting the requirements of energy conservation and emission reduction.
[0052] In addition, as shown in Figure 5, in order to facilitate use by users who have difficulty accessing external water sources, in one embodiment, the top of the clean water tank 2 is open and is provided with a top cover 11. By providing a top cover 11 that can be attached and removed, users can remove the top cover 11 and pour in clean water to replenish the clean water supply when it is inconvenient for them to access external water sources.
[0053] Preferably, as shown in Figures 2 and 5, the toilet shell 1 has a receiving groove 12 for placing the sewage tank 4. The top of the receiving groove 12 is connected to the first connecting hole 6, and the top of the sewage tank 4 has a second connecting hole 13. When the sewage tank 4 is located in the receiving groove 12, the first connecting hole 6 is connected to the second connecting hole 13. A drain pipe 14 is connected to the outside of the sewage tank 4, and a cap 15 is fastened to the open end of the drain pipe 14. The receiving groove 12 provides an installation position for the sewage tank 4 inside the toilet shell 1. When the sewage tank 4 is located inside the receiving groove 12, the first connecting hole 6 of the toilet bowl 5 is aligned and connected with the second connecting hole 13 at the top of the sewage tank 4, forming a smooth discharge channel. With the sewage pipe 14 outside the sewage tank 4, after the sewage tank 4 has collected a specified water level, the sewage tank 4 can be directly removed, and pet excrement can be discharged into the external environment through the drain pipe 14. The cap 15 ensures the sealing of the drain pipe 14 when no excrement is discharged.
[0054] It should be noted that the sewage tank 4 is equipped with a handle 20 for easy removal by the user. A snap-locking structure (not shown in the figure) can be provided between the sewage tank 4 and the receiving tank 12 to allow the user to lock the sewage tank 4 and improve the stability of the sewage tank 4 installation. The snap-locking structure can be a commonly used press-locking structure, magnetic locking structure, etc., and there is no limitation here. In this embodiment, the bottom of the sewage tank 4 is provided with a clearance groove 21 for the placement of the sewage pipe 14. The sewage pipe 14 is connected to the sewage tank 4 by a rotating connection. When the sewage tank 4 needs to be installed, the sewage pipe 14 is rotated into the clearance groove 21 so that the sewage tank 4 can be installed into the receiving tank 12. When the sewage tank 4 is pulled out, the sewage pipe 14 is rotated to the outside of the sewage tank 4 so that the sewage pipe 14 can discharge sewage.
[0055] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 1, the toilet shell 1 is equipped with a sensor indicator light 16, and a water level monitor (not shown in the figure) is installed inside the wastewater tank 4. The water level monitor is connected to the sensor indicator light 16 and the clean water delivery system 3. The water level monitor can monitor the water level changes inside the wastewater tank 4 in real time. When the water level monitor detects that the water level in the wastewater tank 4 has reached a preset threshold, it can send a signal to the sensor indicator light 16 to make it light up or change color to remind the user to clean the wastewater tank 4 in time. It can also send a signal to the clean water delivery system 3 to stop any form of flushing to prevent wastewater from overflowing, thereby improving the convenience of the pet toilet.
[0056] Preferably, the sensing system includes an infrared heat sensor 17 and a control panel (not shown in the figure). The infrared heat sensor 17 is located on the toilet shell 1 near the potty 5. The control panel controls the connection between the infrared heat sensor 17 and the water pump 31. When the pet uses the toilet, the infrared heat sensor 17 can sense the pet on the potty 5 and send a signal to the control panel to start the water pump 31. At the same time, according to the preset program of the control panel, the water pump 31 can be started again after the pet leaves for a short time to avoid disturbing the pet when it uses the toilet.
[0057] Preferably, as shown in Figures 1 and 5, the toilet bowl 5 has a partition 18 for supporting the pet. The partition 18 has several drainage holes 19, the size of which gradually increases from the outside of the partition 18 towards its center. By setting up the partition 18, a supporting position can be provided for the pet when using the toilet. The drainage holes 19 ensure that after the pet urinates on the partition 18, the excrement can smoothly fall into the wastewater tank 4 below through the drainage holes 19, and be cleaned by the clean water delivery system 3. The gradually increasing size of the drainage holes 19 from the outside of the partition 18 towards its center also provides a good standing position for the pet when using the toilet. This encourages the pet to stand near the smaller drainage holes 19 on the outside of the partition 18 before urinating through the larger drainage holes 19, thus improving the pet's comfort and acceptance of the toilet.
[0058] The implementation principle of a portable smart pet toilet according to this application embodiment is as follows: When the infrared heat sensor 17 detects that a pet is using the toilet in the litter box 5, it sends a signal to the control panel. The control panel then controls the water pump 31 to start, drawing clean water from the clean water tank 2. The water is then sprayed onto the litter box 5 and the partition 18 through the pump pipe 341 and the ring water supply pipe 342, and then onto the flushing capillary 343. This guides the excrement into the wastewater tank 4, completing the flushing process. When the sensor indicator light 16 lights up or changes color, it can remind the user to remove the wastewater tank 4 and open the cover 15 to drain the wastewater, thus completing the cleaning of the wastewater tank 4 and ensuring the hygiene and normal use of the pet toilet.
[0059] The advantages of a portable smart pet toilet compared to a traditional pet toilet according to embodiments of this application are as follows:
[0060] 1. Improve the valve device system of the existing flush toilet. The combination of float ball 9, water inlet control block 10 and water inlet 7 realizes the small size and lightweight installation of the clean water tank 2, reducing the waste of tank space and increasing the space utilization rate.
[0061] 2. Improved flushing pipe design: Through the water pump 31 and the pump connection pipe 341, the ring water delivery pipe 342, and the flushing capillary tube 343, the pipe design of step-by-step pressurization achieves efficient cleaning while saving water resources.
[0062] 3. The clean water tank 2, waste water tank 4, toilet shell 1 and toilet bowl 5 can form a split toilet structure that is easy to disassemble and assemble. It is easy to carry and can be used in any place without being restricted by the location. Users can directly add water by opening the top cover 11 of the clean water tank 2 to replenish the clean water.
[0063] 4. Compared to traditional dry litter boxes on the market, it has no odor, lower pet ownership costs, and makes it easier to create a fresher environment.
[0064] 5. Fully automatic cleaning and collection of pet excrement, with intelligent reminders for users to empty the wastewater bin, significantly reducing user workload and improving user experience.
[0065] The specific embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this application. Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications, combinations, sub-combinations, and substitutions can be made according to design requirements and other factors. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
