Description

Canine excrement collector.

Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a collector of canine droppings, of simple constitution, which allows carry out the collection of canine excrements in an easy way and comfortable, for animal owners.

Background of the invention

Excrement collectors are already known canines, which are designed to collect feces from the ground. These pickers may have handling problems, due to the existence of more or less complicated mechanisms, and mainly hygiene problems, since the droppings must be collected after they have been deposited on the ground.

Description of the invention

The present invention is intended to eliminate the exposed problems, by means of a constitution collector simple, lacking mechanisms and mobile elements, which simplifies the use of the collector and reduces its costs.

Another object of the invention is to achieve a excrement collector that allows the operations of collection with maximum hygiene, not only for the user, but also for the environment. To do this the picker of the invention is designed so that, on the one hand the user who in every moment isolated from excrement and, on the other, because droppings are collected before they reach the ground.

For this, according to the invention, the collector is configured so that it can be arranged immediately below the animal's body, when it goes to defecate, so that you can collect excrement in a bag mounted on the collector.

According to the invention, the collector of canine excrement is composed of a rigid ring that is a carrier of a bag and that is equipped with an upper handle. Ring externally presents a peripheral throat for adjustment and fixing the mouth of the bag. For this the bag has of an elastic mouthpiece, whose minimum contour will be less than of the peripheral throat of the ring. Outer peripheral throat It will preferably be located at the bottom of the ring. From this way the bag will be introduced through the hoop and the mouth it will become superiorly and externally on it, until the elastic mouthpiece fits into the peripheral throat, then hanging the hoop bag, inside it.

According to one embodiment, the bag can be provided along its mouth with a tubular cap, in the one that houses an elastic ring-shaped rubber, as well as a cord or closure tape. The elastic ring will have a smaller contour that of the mouth of the bag, while the cord or ribbon it will be of much greater length than the contour of said mouth and will protrude from the tubular cap through an opening of said auction. In this way the ribbon or cord will serve as a means of closing, pulling it, and to transport the bag, without Need to have to touch her.

The handle will consist of a bar or straight mast that is fixed by one end to the hoop, which affects in an inclined position, on the side opposite to the one occupied by the bag.

The rigid ring can also have a leg, located on the opposite side of the handle, for easy support on the ground, while being used as a collector of waste.

Brief description of the drawings

The attached drawings show an example of  non-limiting realization, whose description is they will better understand the characteristics and advantages of the collector of excrement of the invention.

In the drawings:

Figure 1 shows the collector of the Invention is position of use, by the owner of a dog.

Figure 2 shows in side elevation the collector of the invention.

Detailed description of one embodiment

Figure 1 shows the way to be used the collector of the invention, by the owner of a dog

The collector is constituted, as best you can  shown in figure 2, by a rigid ring 1, to which a handle 2 and which can be provided with a lower support leg 3.

Ring 1 has a throat externally peripheral 4, which will preferably be located in the part bottom of the ring 1 and which will be used to fix a bag collector 5 that will be hung from ring 1, introduced by the inside of it, and whose mouthpiece turns outwards on the ring 1 to be fixed in the peripheral throat 4. To do this The bag has an elastic mouthpiece, whose minimum contour It is lower than the peripheral throat 4.

The bag, as seen in Figure 4, can  dispose in its mouth of a tubular cap 6 through which a rubber 7, in the form of an elastic ring, and a cord or ribbon closure 8. The elastic ring will have a smaller contour than that of the mouth of bag 5, while the cord or ribbon will be quite longer and will protrude outside through a opening or interruption 9 of the tubular cap 6.

With the constitution described, bag 5 is enter through the ring 1, turning the mouthpiece over said ring, so that the elastic tubular cap 6 supports and fits elastically against the peripheral throat 4.

The bag will be placed so that the opening 9 of the tubular cap 6 faces the handle 2, handle that can have a pivot or hook 10 to hang the cord or tape 8, as shown in figure 2.

This situation is shown in Figure 3, where It can be seen as the bag 5 hangs from the ring 1, with the tubular cap 6 adjusted to peripheral throat 4 and with cord or tape 8 hanged on hitch 10.

When the owner of a dog goes out with the same to a park or public road, will take the collector of the invention, with the bag mounted and when the animal is going to defecate will place under it the bag 5 supported by the ring 1, so that can carry out the collection of excrement 11, then from which it will be enough to take the cord or ribbon 8 by hand and pulling it free the bag from the ring 1 and the closed mouth, as indicated by reference 5 'in the Figure 1.

With the collector of the invention, a device of simple constitution and reduced cost, which Lets collect dog droppings before they get to touch the ground and without the need for the owners of the animals have to manipulate the collection bag, directly over the droppings.

The ring 1 can be of circular contour or oval and peripheral throat 4 could be constituted by a  flange or skirt attached inferiorly to ring 1, all along the same or only in certain portions.

The handle 2 can be of any nature and it can also be related to ring 1 in solidarity or Detachable, by any means. Also the handle 2 can be rigid, folding or telescopic.
