Abstract

The device has a box divided into two compartments, where one of the compartments serves as a powder bag and the other compartment serves as a litter bag. A layer of powder (P) is provided at bottom of a rodent cage (C) for absorbing urine of rodents for solidifying the urine in few seconds. The bottom of the cage is protected with a protection grid (G), where the grid separates the powder from the litter. The box is replaced by plastic packages or paper bags of different shapes and materials.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif qui permet aux propriétaires de lapins et autres rongeurs de maintenir propres leurs cages plus longtemps de manière plus facile, plus rapide et plus efficace . Le nettoyage de ces cages est traditionnellement effectué avec de la litière pas suffisamment absorbante laissant par conséquent des flaques d'urine, ce qui nécessite un renouvellement tous les deux à trois jours suite aux odeurs qui en émanent et au manque d'hygiène que cela représente pour l'animal ainsi que pour les gens en contact avec lui. Ce procédé rend les propriétaires de ces animaux esclaves de cette corvée et transforme également leur amour des animaux en une passion très onéreuse. The present invention provides a device that allows owners of rabbits and other rodents to keep their cages clean longer, easier, faster and more efficiently. The cleaning of these cages is traditionally carried out with litter not sufficiently absorbent thus leaving puddles of urine, which requires a renewal every two to three days following the odors that emanate and the lack of hygiene that it represents for the animal as well as for people in contact with it. This process makes the owners of these animals slaves to this chore and also transforms their love of animals into a very expensive passion.

Le dispositif de mon invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. En effet, il suffit de mettre une couche de poudre au fond de la cage que l'on protège avec une grille pour ne pas que l'animal soit en contact avec elle et on recouvre le tout de litière traditionnelle. Ainsi, l'urine absorbée par la poudre se solidifie en quelques secondes ce qui empêche, par conséquent, les mauvaises odeurs ainsi que les bactéries de se propager dans l'appartement ou la maison. De cette façon, les propriétaires peuvent se permettre de ne changer qu'une seule fois par mois la litière de leur animal de compagnie, ce qui représente un gain considérable de temps et d'argent, mais également un avantage écologique et hygiénique à la fois pour l'animal et pour la famille. De plus, au moment de renouveler le procédé une fois le mois écoulé, le propriétaire se contente de nettoyer la cage avec une spatule en quelques minutes, sans nécessité de frotter ni rincer. Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation : - ce produit pourrait servir à toutes les personnes ayant un animal de compagnie nécessitant une litière, comme les chats par exemple. - ce produit, dont la poudre est la matière première, pourrait être présenté sous bien d'autres formes comme en billes, en briques, en flocons, en copeaux, en granulés, en dosettes de formes différentes, ce qui permettrait même de vendre le produit déjà mélangé à la litière dans un emballage unique. - l'emballage initial, à savoir une boîte divisée en deux compartiments, peut être remplacé par diverses formes et matières d'emballages comme le plastique ou des sacs en papier. The device of my invention overcomes these disadvantages. Indeed, just put a layer of powder at the bottom of the cage that is protected with a grid so that the animal is not in contact with it and it covers the whole litter traditional. Thus, the urine absorbed by the powder solidifies in a few seconds, which prevents bad odors and bacteria from spreading in the apartment or house. In this way, homeowners can afford to change their pet's litter only once a month, which saves a lot of time and money, as well as an ecological and hygienic benefit. for the animal and for the family. In addition, when renewing the process once the past month, the owner is content to clean the cage with a spatula in minutes, without the need to scrub or rinse. According to particular modes of realization: - this product could serve to all the people having a pet requiring a litter, like the cats for example. - this product, powder is the raw material, could be presented in many other forms such as beads, bricks, flakes, chips, granules, pods of different shapes, which would even sell the product already mixed with litter in a single package. - the initial packaging, namely a box divided into two compartments, can be replaced by various forms and packaging materials such as plastic or paper bags.

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention : - la figure 1 représente la boîte avec ses deux compartiments : poudre (P) et litière (L) ainsi que la grille de séparation (G) - la figure 2 représente la cage © avec la poudre (P) au fond - la figure 3 représente la cage © avec une grille (G) qui recouvre la poudre (P) - la figure 4 représente la cage © avec la litière (L) par-dessus la grille (G) et la poudre (P) - la figure 5 représente la cage © prête à être nettoyée une fois le mois écoulé. Pour cela, il faut au préalable enlever la grille (G). - la figure 6 représente la cage © avec une spatule qui va servir à jeter le mélange litière-poudre-déjections à la poubelle. En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif se présente sous la forme d'une boîte divisée en deux compartiments : d'un côté le sachet de poudre (P) et de l'autre le sachet de litière (L). Dans le fond de la boîte, le propriétaire pourra trouver la grille (G) pour séparer la poudre de la litière. Puis, il suffit de verser la poudre (P) au fond de la cage ©, placer la grille de protection (G) , et recouvrir le tout de litière (L). Puis, au moment du nettoyage, le propriétaire enlève la grille (G) à l'aide de gants et d'une spatule et il ne reste plus qu' à jeter le tout dans un sac poubelle et à recommencer le processus avec une nouvelle boîte. The attached drawings illustrate the invention: FIG. 1 represents the box with its two compartments: powder (P) and litter (L) as well as the separation grid (G); FIG. 2 represents the cage © with the powder ( P) at the bottom - Figure 3 shows the cage © with a grid (G) covering the powder (P) - Figure 4 shows the cage © with the litter (L) over the grid (G) and the powder (P) - Figure 5 shows the cage © ready to be cleaned once the month has passed. For this, you must first remove the grid (G). - Figure 6 shows the cage © with a spatula that will be used to throw the mixture litter-powder-droppings in the trash. With reference to these drawings, the device is in the form of a box divided into two compartments: on one side the powder bag (P) and on the other the litter bag (L). In the bottom of the box, the owner will be able to find the grate (G) to separate the powder from the litter. Then, just pour the powder (P) at the bottom of the cage ©, place the protective grid (G), and cover the whole litter (L). Then, at the time of cleaning, the owner removes the grill (G) with gloves and a spatula and it remains only to throw everything in a trash bag and to start the process with a new box .

Cette invention est particulièrement destinée aux personnes qui ont ou qui souhaiteraient avoir un lapin ou autres rongeurs, mais qui hésitent encore suite aux contraintes que la fréquence du nettoyage de la cage peut représenter ou qui sont assez réfractaires aux odeurs que leurs déjections peuvent dégager. This invention is particularly intended for people who have or would like to have a rabbit or other rodents, but who still hesitate because of the constraints that the frequency of cleaning the cage can represent or are quite refractory to the odors that their excrement can release.
