Has been. The third granular processed body 23 is a non-water-absorbing granular processed body that does not substantially absorb moisture. The shape is not particularly limited as long as it is formed in the shape of a small lump and does not need to be a perfect sphere or the like, and may be any shape such as a columnar body (elongated shape) or a flat shape.
The third granular processed body 23 can be manufactured by the same granulation method as the first granular processed body 21.

  The coffee extraction residue is an extraction residue discharged when roasted coffee beans are extracted from roasted coffee beans when a coffee beverage such as canned coffee or instant coffee is produced from roasted coffee beans. . This coffee extract residue is an extract of the coffee extract, but since the coffee component remains, aroma is emitted and when water is given from the outside, a brown coffee extract is generated. It has become.

There are various types of tea husks such as Japanese tea, black tea, oolong tea, etc., and are extracted residues after extracting the components. Like the coffee extraction residue, the tea leaves are fragrant because the tea components remain, and when given external moisture, green, yellow, brown, and other extracts are produced. Yes.
In addition, since the tea husk has the antibacterial effect by tannin etc., it is especially suitable on hygiene.

  The coffee extraction residue has an odor absorption effect and an aroma effect due to the adsorption action, and it is 80% to 99% by weight with respect to the total weight of the granular processed body. Therefore, it is suitable for achieving the desired performance.

  Moreover, an adhesive agent is used in order to shape | mold the 3rd granular process body 23 in a granular form, and can use a well-known material. However, since the 3rd granular processing object 23 is non-water-absorbing, it is suitable for an adhesive agent that it is a property which does not have water absorption. In the case where a large amount of adhesive is not used, a water-absorbing adhesive that is finely pulverized (the water-absorbing performance is reduced by fine pulverization) can also be used.

It can be produced by mixing a plurality of mixtures as raw materials and kneading those constituent materials using a mixture of these materials and a water-absorbing resin as a base material.

  In particular, when a coffee extraction residue or the like is used as a common constituent material of the second granular processing body 22 and the third granular processing body 23, an aroma effect is produced synergistically, which is preferable.

[Coating layer]
The main purpose of the coating layer portion is to cause the second granular treatment bodies 22 wetted with urine or the like to adhere to each other at the time of use to form a lump and wrap urine from the surroundings. As an example of the constituent material of such a covering layer portion, it is preferable to use a water-absorbent resin, an adhesive material, or a mixture of both materials and a mixture of paper powder, and knead them to produce. .

  Examples of the adhesive include a superabsorbent resin such as glue and sodium polyacrylate. Examples of such a paste that functions as an adhesive include potato starch, wheat starch, sweet potato starch, corn starch, tapioca starch, rice starch, dextrin, starches such as alpha (α) starch, acrylamide, PVA, carboxy Methylcellulose or sodium alginate can be used, or a combination of two or more of these can be used.

Examples of alcohol-soluble adhesives include hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). In this case as well, these are used alone or two of them are used. The above can be mixed and used.

[Effects]
Next, a method for using the animal toilet T of the present invention will be described.
First, a predetermined amount of the first granular processing body 21 and the third granular processing body 23 are laid on the upper surface of the partition member 13, and a predetermined amount of the second granular processing body 22 is laid on the storage tray 15. Set in the body storage unit 12. At this time, the fragrance such as the coffee extraction residue emitted from the third granular processing body 23 is emitted from the upper surface to the indoor space.

Subsequently, the pet animal is urinated from the top of the first granular processing body 21 and the third granular processing body 23. Then, the urine passes through and around each of the first granular processing body 21 and the third granular processing body 23 and drops downward. In the process, the test indicator contained in the first granular processing body 21 is appropriately discolored, and the health condition of the animal can be determined based on the degree of discoloration. Further, in the process, bad odor such as ammonia odor is absorbed by the adsorption action of coffee extraction residue and the like.
Then, it passes through the urine dropping hole 13 a of the partition member 13 and reaches the second granular processing body 22 laid in the second processing body storage portion 12. In the 2nd granular processing object 22, while a core part absorbs urine, the covering layer part of the adjoining 2nd granular processing object 22 adheres by urination, becomes the lump 30, and acts, such as enveloping excrement from the circumference Will play. Therefore, the urination part can be easily confirmed.

  When the mass 30 of the second granular processing body 22 increases, the storage tray 15 is pulled out, and only the second granular processing body 22 that has become 30 is taken out and discarded (see FIG. 3). Then, the new second granular processing body 22 is replenished, and the storage tray 15 is fitted into the second processing body storage portion 12.

  Thus, according to the animal toilet T of the present invention, the health condition of the animal according to its properties can be examined by the first granular processing body 21 containing the test material. Moreover, since the 1st granular processing body 21 and the 3rd granular processing body 23 hardly absorb urine and only permeate | transmit, they do not collapse by one-time use, and are reused by drying. Can be used repeatedly over a plurality of times.

In addition to the expensive first granular processing body 21 including the inspection material, the inexpensive third granular processing body 23 including the non-water-absorbing adsorbing material is used, which does not include the inspection material. The manufacturing cost of the animal toilet T can be reduced.
In addition, both the 1st granular process body 21 and the 3rd granular process body 23 show | play the deodorizing effect by adsorption | suction etc. (The 3rd granular process body 23 has a stronger deodorizing effect by the difference in a structural material). The first granular processed body 21 and the third granular processed body 23 are gradually disintegrated by being repeatedly used, but the more the disintegrated and granular, the greater the contact area with urine, which is excellent. Deodorizing effect will be demonstrated.

  Moreover, since the 31st granular processing body 21 containing a coffee extraction residue etc. has a deodorizing performance, while being able to prevent the bad smell which a urine has, and exhibiting the aroma effect | action by aromas, such as coffee which a coffee extraction residue etc. emits, it is special. The effect as a fragrance can be exhibited without consideration.

Moreover, the 2nd granular process body 22 is a multilayer structure which has a granular core part and the coating layer part which coat | covers the said core part, The said coating layer part contains an adhesive material, and absorbs urination. Since it is formed in a lump shape, it absorbs the urine processed by the first granular processing body 21 and the third granular processing body 23 and makes it into a lump and traps it inside, thereby effectively preventing malodor. be able to.
Furthermore, since the first granular processing body 21, the third granular processing body 23, and the second granular processing body 22 have a two-layer structure, even if odor is emitted from the second granular processing body 22, The odor can be shut out by the adsorption effect of the one granular processing body 21.

  Moreover, since the urine which flows in from the outside and reaches the second granular processing body 22 laid in the second processing body storage portion 12 is absorbed into the core portion and becomes the lump 30, it becomes the lump 30. Only the part that has been removed can be easily removed.

  Furthermore, in the animal toilet T of the present invention, the second treatment body storage portion 12 can be opened and closed by simply pulling out the storage tray 15, so that the second granular treatment body 22 stored in the storage tray 15 can be easily removed. Can be changed.

As mentioned above, although an example about a suitable embodiment was explained about the present invention, the present invention is not restricted to the embodiment concerned, and a design change is possible suitably in the range which does not deviate from the meaning of the present invention.
There is no restriction | limiting in particular in the shape of a urine container, a material, etc., it has a bottom and a surrounding wall, and the predetermined watertightness etc. should just be maintained. And if an upper opening part is opened so that an animal can urinate, there will be no restriction | limiting also in the position, a shape, etc.

Moreover, there is no restriction | limiting also in the form of the 1st process body storage part and the partition member of a 2nd process body storage part, and it guide | induces to a 2nd process body storage part, after letting a urine permeate | transmit a 1st granular process body. Any structure may be used as long as it can be formed, and a structure in which the first granular processing body and the third granular processing body are held in a mesh-like net-like body may be used.
Furthermore, it is more preferable that the partition member is formed so as to be easily removable.

Moreover, if the urination container is formed of a transparent material, it is particularly preferable because the inside situation can be recognized.
Further, only the first granular processing body may be laid in the first processing body storage portion.
