Description

Pet status adaptive muzzle {MUZZLE CONTROLLED ACCORDING TO THE STATE OF THE PET}

The present invention relates to a pet state adaptive muzzle. More specifically, the present invention relates to a pet condition adaptive muzzle which can measure the location or / and condition of the pet, and spray the fragrance or tighten the mouth when a predetermined situation occurs, to prepare for the danger.

As is well known, pets are animals that humans have always encountered in their surroundings and keeps them in their residential environment.

In particular, pet dogs are not only pets most domesticated because they follow people very well, have strong obedience to their owners, and are very smart compared to other animals. Beyond this, the scope of their existence is expanding as members of a family.

As the number of pets increases, the pet related goods market is growing rapidly, but most of the development of the pet goods is focused on the goods that the owner wants to buy for the pets.

However, as pets increase, cases of being threatened by pets or being injured by pets are increasing, and social problems are also emerging.

For example, there are few risk factors (barking or asking) for pet dogs because there are many opportunities for contact with pet dogs and family members. However, depending on the type of dog, its training and lifestyle, There is a risk of barking at the guest.

Moreover, when walking or going out with pet dogs (especially large, ugly breeds), they become scared or wary from the standpoint of the person watching the dog (e.g., reluctant or scared) In addition, there is a problem that there is always a risk factor such as barking or biting against strangers or small children.

Therefore, while the pet effectively blocks the threat to the person in advance, it is urgent to develop a pet stopper that can minimize the rejection of wearing the mouthpiece by the owner's mind for the pet.

Most prior arts, such as Patent Document 1, are focused on a structure that can improve convenience and aesthetics for pets.

However, regardless of the condition of the pet, the mouth stopper that completely closes the mouth of the pet gives a discomfort to the pet, the owner of caring for the pet has a problem that the desire to purchase falls.

Patent document 2 is disclosing the characteristic which can give an electric shock by transmitting a signal wirelessly to an mouth plug. This prior art 2 has a problem that can be driven only by the user's radio operation irrespective of the state of the dog, the control to apply an electric shock.

It may be implemented using at least one of a controller (micro-controllers), microprocessors (microprocessors), electrical units for performing other functions.

Hereinafter, a method of controlling the pet animal 10 by the controller 160 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4 to 5.

First, the controller 160 measures the position of the pet 10 (S101), and when the pet 10 enters the restricted area (RA) (S102), the fragrance injection unit 130 You can control the spray fragrance. (S103)

In detail, the controller 160 determines the position of the pet 10 and the position of the owner through the communication unit 110, and then, if the pet 10 is out of a predetermined distance from the owner, the pet 10 ) Can be determined to enter the restricted area (RA).

In addition, the controller 160, through the communication unit 110, grasps the map information around the pet 10, and determines that the dangerous area (for example, road, construction site, etc.) around the pet 10, the companion It can be determined that the animal 10 is about to enter the restricted area.

When it is determined that the pet 10 enters the restricted area RA, the controller 160 controls the incense injection unit 130 to inject a repellent incense forward, so that the pet 10 is in front of the pet. It can be induced not to go to.

Next, the controller 160 may control the fragrance injection unit 130 to spray the preferred fragrance in the direction in which the owner is located. In this case, the controller 160 may further control the fragrance injection unit 130 to output the master voice in the direction in which the master is located.

In detail, referring to FIG. 5, when the pet animal 10 attempts to move to the restricted area RA side, the controller 160 injects a repellent or fear scent to the front to restrict the forward movement of the pet 10. After determining the location of the owner's smart phone 20, the owner 20 determines the direction (d1, d2, d3) toward the owner in real time according to the location of the pet 10 and the owner 20, By outputting preferences and preference sounds so as to move in the direction, the pet 10 may not enter the dangerous place and the pet 10 can find the owner.

In addition, the controller 160 measures the excitement state of the companion animal 10 (S104), and if the excitation degree of the companion animal 10 exceeds a preset excitation degree (S105), the oral tightening unit By controlling the 120, the size limit of the oral cavity may be changed to a predetermined size. (S107)

In addition, the controller 160 measures the excitement state of the companion animal 10, and controls the fragrance injection unit 130 when the excitation degree of the companion animal 10 exceeds a preset excitation degree. It can be controlled to spray the scent. (S106)

That is, the controller 160 may limit the mouth of the companion animal 10 to the second size when the companion animal 10 is excited to pose a threat to the outsider so as not to bite the outsider.

In addition, the controller 160 may first calm the pet 10 by spraying a preference. In addition, the controller 160 may control the state measurement sensor 150 to measure the excited state of the companion animal 10.

When the excitability of the pet animal 10 maintains a predetermined level of excitability, the controller 160 may spray a repellent fragrance and measure the excitement state of the pet animal 10.

In addition, the control unit 160, when the degree of excitement of the companion animal 10 maintains a predetermined level of excitement, by spraying a fear sound, it may induce the companion animal 10 away from the outsider. .

As described above, the pet 10 can be controlled to restrict the threat to the outsider when the pet 10 is in an excited state, and can be controlled to lower the excited state of the pet 10. .
