As shown in FIG. 1, the embodiment of the invention provides an automatic cleaning method for a pet toilet, which comprises the following steps:
step S101, detecting whether a pet exists in the pet toilet.
In this embodiment, the presence of a pet in the pet litter box is detected by an infrared sensor. If the pet exists in the pet toilet, detecting whether the pet exists in the pet toilet again after the preset second time. The preset second time is 5 minutes.
For example, the infrared sensor detects whether a cat is in the pet toilet, and if the cat is detected, the infrared sensor is started again after 5 minutes, and the infrared sensor detects whether the cat is in the pet toilet.
Before step S101, the method comprises:
matching the current time after the startup is completed;
according to the current time, starting to detect whether the pet exists in the pet toilet after a preset time interval.
The method comprises the steps of starting the pet toilet, matching the current time after the system is started, and starting to detect whether a pet exists in the pet toilet after a preset time interval according to the matched current time. In the present embodiment, the preset time interval is 4 hours, that is, the cleaning is required every 4 hours.
For example, if the user starts the machine at 8 am, the machine is cleaned every 4 hours with 8 am as a starting point, and the machine automatically matches the current time whenever starting the machine, starts the infrared sensor for detection according to the current time, and then cleans the machine.
If the pet is detected to exist in the pet toilet, detecting whether the pet exists in the pet toilet again after the preset second time, wherein the starting point of the preset time interval is not changed, namely, the starting time of the user is 8 am, then 8 am is used as the starting point, cleaning is performed every 4 hours, 12-point starting infrared sensor detection is performed, the presence of the cat is detected, the infrared sensor is started again after 5 minutes, whether the cat exists in the pet toilet is detected through the infrared sensor, and if the absence of the cat is detected, the time for starting the infrared sensor next time is 4 pm.
Step S102, if the pet toilet is detected to be not provided with the pet, a cleaning command is executed.
If the pet toilet is detected to be not provided with the pet, a cleaning command is sent out and executed. Executing the sweeping command includes executing a first-stage sweeping the stool task, or, executing a first-stage sweeping the stool task and executing a second-stage sweeping the pet litter task.
In step S102, the method includes:
executing a task of cleaning excrement in the first stage, and simultaneously turning on an ultraviolet lamp;
after the excrement cleaning task of the first stage is finished, a pet sand cleaning task of the second stage is executed;
and after the task of cleaning the pet sand in the second stage is finished, the ultraviolet lamp is turned off.
In this embodiment, the pet lavatory includes excrement and urine cleaning device, excrement and urine cleaning device is including being used for the pet on its faecal flat board, when the user uses, dull and stereotyped top is provided with the scraper blade, dull and stereotyped first side is provided with the lead screw that is used for driving the scraper blade and removes on the flat board, the one end and the lead screw of scraper blade are connected, it is concrete, when the lead screw rotates, make the scraper blade round trip movement on the flat board, the end connection of lead screw has and is used for driving lead screw pivoted driving motor, the scraper blade is the silica gel scraper blade, the edge of silica gel scraper blade is provided with the brush, the silica gel scraper blade has certain toughness, the brush contacts with the flat board, excrement and urine on the flat board can be excreteed to the fine clearance pet.
Specifically, the control host computer receives infrared inductor and detects not have the pet in the pet lavatory, sends control command to motor drive ware, and the scraper blade, lead screw cooperation lead screw motor and step motor begin work separate the pet excrement to cat litter receiver/sack, reach the effect of isolated smell, make things convenient for people to handle the pet excrement.
In some embodiments, in step S102, the method includes:
executing a first-stage manure cleaning task, wherein an ultraviolet lamp is turned on when the first-stage manure cleaning task is executed for the last time every day;
