Description

Toilet Apparatus for Cats {Toilet Apparatus For Cat}

The present invention relates to a care product for cats, and more particularly, to a fecal device for cats, which does not stick to the cat's body by using environmentally friendly materials such as seeds, has good permeability, has no desertification phenomenon, and is easy to maintain. will be.

The number of families living with pets is increasing day by day, and accordingly, various kinds of pets and care products for the convenience of pets or their caregivers are widely spread.

One of the biggest problems in living with a pet is the droppings. It is often left to stool in a relatively fixed place by training or instinct, but the disposal of secreted feces is still up to the human. Therefore, various countermeasures have been proposed to enable the excrement to be collected and disposed of in the toilet.

In general, the habits of stool vary according to the species of animals. In particular, cats have a habit of covering their excrement with soil or sand. Failure to meet these habits can lead to a number of problems because of increased stress on the pet. For this reason, a material in the form of granules or powder, called cat sand, is widely used in feces or toilets for cats.

Cat sands in the market are classified into absorbing sand that absorbs moisture and solidified sand that hardens by absorbing moisture. The former includes silica gel and zeolite, and the latter is typical of pellets made of bentonite or wood (or pulp).

In the case of silica gel or zeolite, there is little desertification phenomenon that clings to the cat's foot or body and pollutes the surrounding environment, but it does not completely absorb urine and some remains intact, causing a bad smell.

In comparison, bentonite is dusty and has a slight desertification effect. However, it is widely used because cats are well adapted and have a low smell. However, due to its dry nature, it may not be good for the cat's foot health and is heavy and difficult to manage.

In the case of pellets, it is advantageous in terms of cost and easy to use, but it is reported that the cat has a tendency to evade due to its low weight, and there is a problem in that it has its own smell. There is also a desertification phenomenon in which the pellets break apart and easily stick to the cat's body, polluting the surroundings.

Natural sands are also used, but some of the urine sinks to the floor of the bathroom, and some of it is absorbed by the sand, making it difficult to completely remove the urine.

As such, various cat sands conventionally provided have their advantages and disadvantages, but common problems include desertification, maintenance inconvenience, cost increase, and smell.

Patent Application No. 10-2010-0017023 proposes a left-sided cat toilet for a desertification phenomenon, which is one of the common problems of cat sand. However, there is a problem that it is difficult to satisfy the cat's instincts by separating the cat and the cat sand in position.

In addition, Patent Application No. 10-2011-0136047 proposes to keep the cat's toilet clean by lifting the perforated fabric for feces separation one by one after seeing the stool, but can not achieve its purpose. However, there is a limit that can not prevent the desertification phenomenon by the cat sand, there is a problem in lifting the removal of perforated fabric for separation and there is a problem that dust occurs when removing.

The object of the present invention for the above problem is to provide a toilet device for pets, especially cats. More specifically, it can satisfy the cat's bowel habits, and because it adheres to the cat's body, there is no desertification phenomenon that contaminates the indoors, and it is easy to manage and low-cost cat toilet equipment. It aims to provide.

The above objects and various advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the preferred embodiments of the present invention by those skilled in the art.

The above object is, a plurality of first urination hole in the bottom plate perforated and the defecation cylinder is open at the top; The fecal apparatus for cats comprising a granular filler having a surface of a hydrophobic coating so that the urine flows downward through the first urination hole to be stacked and stacked inside the defecation cylinder. Is achieved.

According to a feature of the present invention, the filler may be a seed of a plant.

According to another feature of the present invention, the filler may be any one or more of corn grains, wheat grains or safflower seeds.

According to another feature of the present invention, the filler may be a wax (wax) in the form of pellets or a wax coated on the surface of the granular body made of synthetic resin, wood.

According to another feature of the present invention, the filler may be a volume of 50 ~ 800㎣.

According to another feature of the present invention, the filler may be a mixture of two or more kinds.

According to another feature of the present invention, the defecation body is seated further includes a urine collecting means for collecting the urine falling downward through the first urination hole, the urine collecting means is seated for seating the defecation body A support container provided with a second urination hole on the bottom plate to provide a wealth and to allow the urine to flow downward; As installed on the bottom of the support container may include a urine box for storing the urine falling through the second urination hole.

According to another feature of the present invention, the bottom plate of the support container is inclined to collect the urine falling from the second urinal hole, the urine box, the upper urine box body; Covered and coupled to the urine body body is provided with a mouth hole in the center, except for one corner is provided with an overflow prevention along the upper edge and the one corner is provided with a cap body for providing an opening through the urine box body It may include.

According to the above constitution, the urine of the cat is filled with voids between the fillers because the filling material filled with the bowel movement cylinder has a bulky shape and the surface of the filling material is hydrophobic without the surface tension of water. After passing through, it is drained to the supporting container and collected. On the other hand, the stool is solidified while staying inside the bowel barrel in the mixed state with the filling material, the manager can just remove the filling and lift the stool. In this case, since the surface of the filler is hydrophobic and smooth, the feces can be easily separated from the filler.

In addition, the case in which the filler adheres to the cat's paw and is taken out of the defecation barrel is minimized. This is because the filling material is somewhat bulky and heavy, and is mostly separated from the spot without being transported along the cat while being sandwiched between the cat's hair or toes. In particular, in the case of using the above-mentioned seed or wax-coated ones, even when the cat stirs or stirs the filling with a foot, the elasticity is low, so that the area that becomes dirty by the filling is limited.

In addition, since seeds are mostly pointed on one side and have a rugged shape, the seeds are hardly rolled on the ground and thus are not rolled much.

As such, the contamination of the bowel container by the filler of the present invention is minimized, which means that desertification is minimized.

According to another effect of the present invention, the filler is not adhered to the urine or stool so that there is no smell caused by the urine or stool remaining in the bowel movement.

In addition, the cost can be adjusted in various ways depending on whether the filler is selected, and since the filler is generally used for a long time, its consumption is low, thus reducing the cost of raising a cat.

Cat fecal mechanism of the present invention includes a filling material (S) to be filled in the defecation cylinder 10 and the defecation cylinder (10). Furthermore, a urine collecting means for collecting urine may be further included as a place where the defecation cylinder 10 is seated.

The defecation cylinder 10 is a rectangular cylinder with an open top, the width of which the cat can see the toilet, and is composed of side walls and bottom plates. A plurality of first urination holes 11 are perforated on the bottom plate of the defecation cylinder 10. As shown, the first urination hole 11 is in the form of a slit (slit) and narrowed so that the filling material (S) to be filled down. As shown in FIG. 6, the inlet 11a of the first urination hole 11 is inclined so that liquid such as urine can be well drained downward.

As shown in Figure 6, the upper rim 13 of the bowel cylinder 10 is easy to hold and lift by hand, so that the cat is not injured by the sharp portion, further rounded outward to increase the rigidity have. The bottom plate of the defecation cylinder 10 is provided with a bead 12 for increasing the rigidity.

The urine collecting means provides a small-variable means for collecting the urine flowing through the seating portion having the upper opening and the first urine hole 11 of the defecation cylinder 10 so that the defecation cylinder 10 can be seated. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the urine collecting means includes a support container 20 and a urine box 30.

The support container 20 provides a seating portion for seating the defecation cylinder 10, and a second urination hole 21 is provided on the bottom plate of the support container 20 so as to allow the liquid material to flow downward. In FIG. 5, the flow of urine is indicated by a dotted arrow.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the second urination hole 21 is provided in one of the centers of the bottom plate 20a, and has a circular hole shape. The bottom plate 20a is inclined so that the second urination hole 21 is installed at the lowest position, thereby allowing the urine falling from the top to the bottom plate 20a to be collected into the second urination hole 21. On the other hand, at the edge of the bottom plate of the support container 20, the spacer 23 is integrally installed. The spacer 23 is to allow the bottom plate of the bowel movement body 10 to be seated to be spaced apart from the bottom plate 20a of the support container 20 by a predetermined height. As a result, as shown in FIG. 5, the defecation cylinder 10 and the support container 20 are provided with a space in which urine or foreign substances can be smoothly discharged.

The legs 42 provided at each corner of the support container 20 allow the bottom plate 20a to be spaced apart from the ground by a predetermined height. A urine box inlet 22 is provided at the front center of the support container 20 to allow the urine box 30 to be inserted or taken out in a drawer type.

The supporting container 20 is integrally formed as shown in FIG. 3, which is configured to support the legs 42 and the urine box 30 having a structure that can reduce weight and stably be supported on the ground, and to limit the coupling depth thereof. It has a urine holder pedestal 41.

As mentioned, the urine box 30 is installed at the bottom of the support container 20. The urine box 30 is a container for storing a liquid substance falling through the second urination hole 21. A handle 35 is installed on the front of the urine box 30 so that the urine box 30 can be easily pushed or pulled like a drawer. The side wall top edge 24 of the support container 20 is also rounded outwardly, which makes the support container 20 easy to lift by the hand and increases the rigidity of the support container 20.

The urine box 30 includes a urine box body 32 having an open top and a lid 31 coupled to an upper portion of the urine box body 32. The lid 31 prevents the smell of urine from spreading to the outside and prevents the flow of urine during transportation.

The mouth hole 33 is provided in the center of the lid 31. As shown in FIG. 5, the urine box 30 is fitted to the bottom of the support container 20 so that the mouth hole 33 is located directly under the second urination hole 21.

The lid 31 is provided with an overflow guard 36 along the upper edge, except for one corner 31a thereof. The overflow guard 36 is a means for preventing the overflow of the urine box 30 even when a large amount of liquid suddenly flows through the second urination hole 21. In addition, in front of the lid 31, an opening and closing handle 34 for easily opening the lid 31 is provided integrally.

One corner 31a without the overflow guard 36 and one corner 32a of the urine box body are provided with an opening 37 through which the urine box body 32 can be opened (see FIG. 4). The manager can easily follow the collected urine through this opening 37.

Hereinafter, the filler S to be filled in the defecation cylinder 10 will be described.

Filler (S) is filled and stacked in a defecation cylinder (10) to a predetermined thickness, urine is drained to the urine collecting means through the voids, feces mixed with the filler (S) on the defecation cylinder (10). It is to be easily removed by hardening in a state.

The filler (S), which performs the function of cat sand, is provided in the form of granules in which the surface is not easily bonded with water molecules, that is, a hydrophobic film.

Since the surface of the filler (S) does not allow the surface tension of water, urine will slide on the surface of the filler (S), and thus will fall downward through the voids of the stacked filler (S) as shown in FIG. . In addition, the feces in the form of agglomerate also contains water, so it hardens in a state in which it is hardly entangled with the filling material S, whereby the manager can easily remove the feces from the filling material S and remove it.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the filler (S) may be a seed of a plant. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the filler (S) may be a seed of a plant, in particular corn grains, wheat grains or safflower seeds.

The filling material of the present invention has a certain volume and weight, so it does not stick to the cat's paw and scatter out of the toilet. Cats are known to prefer cat sand with some weight, and the seeds mentioned above satisfy these conditions. Seeds also have an asymmetrical shape and do not roll on the ground. In addition, it has low elasticity and does not bounce far. This series of properties of seed fillers greatly contributes to the prevention of cat sand desertification. Of course, seed fillers are, among other things, environmentally friendly materials and readily available.

According to another embodiment of the present invention, the filler may be a wax (wax) in the form of pellets as a substitute for seeds. In this case, the filler S can be provided at a low price. In some cases, the filler (S) may be composed of any one or more of a wax-coated synthetic resin or wood in pellet form.

Wax-based materials can also satisfy cats in volume and weight and contribute to the prevention of desertification.

On the other hand, the filler (S) may be one having a volume of 50 ~ 800㎣.

According to another feature of the present invention, the filler (S) may be a mixture of two or more kinds of materials. Different sizes may be mixed or different types may be mixed.

In addition, while the upper portion of the defecation cylinder 10 has been described above, the hood may be coupled to some side of the open upper portion, and this case may also be included in the scope of the present invention. .

What has been described above are only a few examples based on the technical idea of the present invention.
