Abstract

Après avoir placé une feuille de papier ou d'un autre matériau en feuille sur les excréments le bec du dispositif est ouvert en rapprochant les parties (7) et (8) et disposé dans cette position ouverte sur les excréments recouverts par la feuille. En relâchant la prise sur les parties (7) et (8) le bec est fermé et les excréments emballés sont rentrés dans le dispositif.After placing a sheet of paper or other sheet material on the excrement, the beak of the device is opened by bringing the parts (7) and (8) together and placed in this open position on the excrement covered by the sheet. By releasing the grip on parts (7) and (8) the spout is closed and the packed excrement is returned to the device.

Description

Apparatus for picking up dog droppings
This invention relates to an apparatus for picking up excrements ( droppings ) of for example dogs in the form of a package.
The well known apparatusses for the purpose of disposing the droppings of dogs , each have their own difficulties in the way in which they must be handled and in their construction ; they are clumsy in use and the construction is too complicated.
In the construction of the apparatus of the invention ; to overcome the disadvantages of known apparatuses in the state of the art; the emphasis has been laid more on the hygienic functioning of human beings than on the hygienic functioning of animals.
In fact it is far better to initiate a knew hygienic apparatus for dog-lovers by using their own hygienic behaviour because the use of the apparatus ( by a man or by a woman ) implies the same way doing after using a toilet : namely the unrolling of toilet tisue paper. This action is the basis thought for the construction of the apparatus of the invention.
For this purpose the apparatus of the invention implies means for containing a roll of toilet-paper or other folimaterial. The first action after noting the fact that the apparatus must be used ( the droppings on the street are there ) is the unrolling of the necessary amount of paper from the reel om the apparatus . This teared off piece of paper ( could be a handkerchief too e.g. ) has to be put on and over the droppings , wherby in making use of the apparatus most of the evil-smelling odour is shielded from the user . The reluctance for using the apparatus diminishes. The apparatus makes a package of the droppings in the folie-material by placing the apparatus over the covered droppings in a open position ; by means of a grabbing movement of two relating to each other movable lips under the influence of a spring . The package in the closed apparatus can be easily disposed of in an appropriate place.
The invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings Fig 1 The closed apparatus standing on its side Fig 2 The open apparatus
The grabs 1 and 2 form a very wide opening when the projected parts 7 and 8 are moved to one another over the hinge-joint
The spring 3 keeps the grabs closed when the apparatus is in a used position ( or in a rest position ) . On one of the crabs 1 is fixed a reel 9 on a hooked element. The breadth of the crabber ( perpenducular direction in relation to the drawing ) may be in reference to the available rolls with folie-material and may be between 10 and 25 centimeter In using the crabber as shown in Fig 2 the opening between the crabs is wide and the crabs will close bij releasing the parts 7 and 8 under influence of spring 3 ; after which the packaged dogdroppings will be inside the apparatus.

Claims

1 . Handapparatus for picking up dogdroppings in paper or other foliematerial characterised in that previously to the applying of the apparatus a piece of paper or other foli e-material is placed on the droppings to cover it completely and by placing the apparatus with wide open crabs 1 and 2 over the covered droppings ; the droppings under the paper are taken into the inner space forπed by the crabs 1 and 2 of the apparatus by the closing of the crabs by releasing the grips 7 and 8 .
2. Handapparatus according to claim 1 characterised in that one of the crabs has a hooked shaped element on which a reel of paper can be fixed.
3. Handapparatus according to claim 1 characterised in that the whole apparatus is made of plastic-material in which the hinge parts are made of a suitable plastic material in such a way that one part of the hinge is part of the crabsection 1 and the other part is part of the crabsection 2. whereby the crabsections are units separated on the closing side-walls .
