Sustrato higiénico para animales de compañía.Hygienic substrate for pets.
Sector de la técnica.Technique sector.
La presente invención se refiere a un sustrato higiénico aplicable en el cuidado de animales de compañía y destinado a colocarse en las cajas o areneros utilizados por dichos animales para realizar sus necesidades.The present invention refers to a hygienic substrate applicable in the care of pets and intended to be placed in the boxes or sandboxes used by said animals to meet their needs.
Estado de la técnica anterior.State of the prior art.
Algunos animales de compañía, como por ejemplo los gatos domésticos, acostumbran a tapar instintivamente sus heces y orines con sustrato del suelo para ocultar su olor y evitar que otros depredadores o miembros de su especie no puedan localizar su territorio.Some pets, such as domestic cats, tend to instinctively cover their feces and urine with soil substrate to hide their odor and prevent other predators or members of their species from locating their territory.
Por razones higiénicas y comodidad del dueño se recurre a la utilización de una caja o arenero con un sustrato adecuado para que el animal pueda tapar fácilmente las heces y orines. Este sustrato consiste generalmente en una arena que se deshecha después de un tiempo de uso, y se sustituye por arena limpia.For hygienic reasons and the owner's comfort, the use of a box or sandbox with a suitable substrate is used so that the animal can easily cover the faeces and urine. This substrate generally consists of sand that is discarded after a period of use, and is replaced by clean sand.
Sin embargo, deshacerse de la arena sucia puede presentar ciertos inconvenientes, como el de que no se debe evacuar por los sumideros de la casa para evitar atascos en las tuberías de desagüe, siendo preciso embolsarla y verterla en un contenedor de residuos.However, getting rid of dirty sand can present certain drawbacks, such as that it should not be evacuated through the drains of the house to avoid blockages in the drain pipes, being necessary to bag it and pour it into a waste container.
Por ello han aparecido últimamente unos materiales ecológicos destinados a suplir la arena en esta función higiénica. Estos materiales se comercializan como pequeñas esferas de materiales aglomerados de distinta naturaleza .For this reason, ecological materials have recently appeared aimed at supplying the sand in this hygienic function. These materials are marketed as small spheres of agglomerated materials of different nature.
Estos nuevos materiales, además de ser adecuadamente absorbentes, tienen la ventaja ecológica de que su evacuación por el sumidero del baño no provoca inconveniente alguno.These new materials, in addition to being suitably absorbent, have the ecological advantage that their evacuation through the bathroom drain does not cause any inconvenience.
Pero estas pequeñas esferas de material aglomerado tienen un elevado coeficiente de rozamiento mutuo, que deriva en la generación de un polvo que ensucia el entorno. But these small spheres of agglomerated material have a high coefficient of mutual friction, which leads to the generation of a dust that dirties the environment.
Además, su fácil movilidad mutua significa que los animales, por ejemplo los gatos, se encuentran incómodos al pisar ese sustrato que se deforma y hunde al pisarlo, pudiendo llegar a dejar de usar tal recurso.In addition, their easy mutual mobility means that animals, for example cats, are uncomfortable when stepping on that substrate that deforms and sinks when stepping on it, being able to stop using this resource.
Por tanto el problema técnico que se plantea es el desarrollo de un sustrato higiénico para animales de compañía que presente unas características técnicas adecuadas para resolver los inconvenientes mencionados.Therefore, the technical problem that arises is the development of a hygienic substrate for pets that has adequate technical characteristics to solve the aforementioned drawbacks.
Explicación de la invenciónExplanation of the invention
Para conseguir los objetivos propuestos, el sustrato higiénico para animales de compañía objeto de la invención combina unas características técnicas relativas a su forma y a su composición, lo que le proporciona un carácter ecológico y reduce significativamente su capacidad de movilidad, resolviendo satisfactoriamente los inconvenientes de los sustratos existentes actualmente en el mercado.To achieve the proposed objectives, the hygienic substrate for companion animals object of the invention combines technical characteristics related to its shape and composition, which gives it an ecological character and significantly reduces its mobility capacity, satisfactorily solving the disadvantages of substrates currently on the market.
De acuerdo con la invención, el sustrato está constituido por una pluralidad de piezas cilíndricas, conformadas con materiales absorbentes de origen vegetal, y que presentan una longitud comprendida entre 10 y 30 mm. y un diámetro comprendido entre 1 y 3 mm.According to the invention, the substrate is made up of a plurality of cylindrical pieces, made of absorbent materials of plant origin, and which have a length of between 10 and 30 mm. and a diameter between 1 and 3 mm.
Este sustrato aprovecha la naturaleza ecológica de los materiales absorbentes de origen vegetal y elimina su exceso de movilidad al proporcionar a las piezas la mencionada forma cilíndrica.This substrate takes advantage of the ecological nature of absorbent materials of plant origin and eliminates their excess mobility by providing the pieces with the aforementioned cylindrical shape.
Las piezas con forma cilíndrica carecen manifiestamente de la movilidad mutua de las esferas, con lo que el sustrato que forman no se deforma al pisarlo los animales, con lo que éstos no experimentan molestias al caminar sobre él, ni existe tanto frotamiento granular provocador del molesto polvo.The cylindrical shaped pieces manifestly lack the mutual mobility of the spheres, so that the substrate they form does not deform when stepped on by the animals, so that they do not experience discomfort when walking on it, nor is there so much granular rubbing that causes the annoying dust.
La conformación de las mencionadas piezas cilíndricas con materiales absorbentes de origen vegetal, y por tanto ecológicos, permite que el sustrato se pueda verter por un sumidero o inodoro de la vivienda sin que ello constituya problema alguno.The conformation of the aforementioned cylindrical pieces with absorbent materials of plant origin, and therefore ecological, allows the substrate to be poured down a drain or toilet in the home without this constituting any problem.
Las piezas de sustrato incluyen en su composición al menos un 85% en peso de harina vegetal, incluyendo el porcentaje restante aditivos con al menos una de las propiedades siguientes: adherentes, cargas, desinfectantes, absorbentes y aromatizantes.The pieces of substrate include in their composition at least 85% by weight of vegetable flour, including the remaining percentage additives with at least one of the properties following: adherents, fillers, disinfectants, absorbents and flavorings.
