Description

Defecation treatment compartment for pet defecation processing device}

The present invention relates to a defecation treatment storage unit for a pet defecation treatment device, and more specifically, when a pet defecation activity is performed in the defecation treatment device, the excrement and the defecation treatment material are separated by a rake member by the driving unit, and then the feces It relates to a defecation treatment storage unit for a pet defecation treatment device that allows the bay to be moved to the storage unit to be collected, as well as to notify the state of the combination of the storage box and to block the smell of excrement.

One of the most inconvenient and cumbersome things to keep pets indoors is getting rid of the excrement. Even if the dog is trained to cover the place and time of the bowel movement, it is not inconvenient for a person to remove the excrement once it occurs.

Because of this inconvenience, people are using a variety of products designed to make it easier to dispose of pet dog excrement.

The most commonly used item is a disposable defecation pad with a urine absorption function. It is easy to use because the user does not need to clean the floor because it can be replaced with a new pad if it is spread out in a specific location in the room and the dog excretes on it. There is this.

However, the disposable defecation pad has a disadvantage that if the user does not remove it quickly after excretion, not only the smell will spread, but also the interior may be contaminated by stool staining on the dog's feet. In addition, even if you press urine, if you repeatedly use it, urine that cannot be absorbed may accumulate on the top of the pad or flow out, causing indoor pollution. In addition, the use of disposable defecation pads has a problem against the recent social trend to reduce the use of disposable products to prevent waste of resources and environmental pollution.

Accordingly, in recent years, more and more people use toilets for dogs that can be used repeatedly rather than disposable products, and various types of toilets for dogs have been introduced.

The simplest type of toilet for dogs is a combined excretion plate with a number of through-holes at the top of the box-shaped toilet bowl. When a dog excretes, urine flows down through the through-hole of the excretion plate into the toilet, and the feces are at the top of the excretion plate. Is placed on

However, in such a toilet for dogs, if the excretory plate on which the feces are placed is not cleaned immediately, not only the smell will spread, but also the interior of the dog's feet that have been placed on the excretory plate may become contaminated, and the urine accumulated in the toilet bowl may cause a foul odor. There is a problem.

As a prior document for solving the above problems, the cat exited the toilet with an infrared sensor formed on the front of the cat after seeing the feces in the cat toilet of Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 2016-0112864 (published on September 28, 2016). It detects and automatically removes feces using the filter formed inside, the infrared sensor measures the number of excretions per day, and the vowel weight measurement unit formed in the feces collection box formed at the lower end checks the cat's daily amount of feces. Allows you to check the health status of the application with the application.

Prior literature constituted as described above has the effect of promoting health management of cats by checking the amount of defecation, but there is no means for confirming whether the above-mentioned vowels are correctly fitted to one side of the cover, so that the coupling relationship cannot be confirmed. Of course, there was a problem that the excrement was discharged to the outside because the vowels were not properly bonded.

It is characterized.

It will be described in detail through the accompanying drawings a bowel treatment receiving unit for a pet bowel processing apparatus according to the present invention.

When described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6, the defecation processing apparatus 100 according to the present invention includes a body 110 formed in a cylindrical shape having an inlet 111 through which pets enter and exit, and the body 110. A through hole having the same size as the inlet 111 is formed, and has a space in which the excrement treatment material is contained, and a discharge hole 121 through which the excrement treatment material contained in the space is discharged by the rake member 151, and is located inside the body. Between the body 110 and the inner cylinder 120 so that the installed inner cylinder 120 and the excrement treatment material and excrement contained in the inner cylinder 120 can be separated by rotation of the rake member 151 and discarded into the storage box 162 A controller (not shown) installed between the body 110 and the inner cylinder so as to detect the entry and exit of pets and control the driving unit 150 and a driving unit 150 that rotates the rake member installed in the inner cylinder 120 ).

In addition, at one side of the discharge hole 121 formed in the inner cylinder 120, a guide panel 130 for guiding the excrement treatment material discharged by the rake member 151 and the excrement to fall into the storage box 162 is installed. .

In addition, a space is formed between the body 110 and the inner cylinder 120, and a partition member 140 is installed in the space in a horizontal direction, and the partition member 140 has a cover (unsigned ) And a guard 141 with a dropping hole 142 through which the rear treatment material and excrement fall together is formed.

A storage unit 160 including a storage box 162 that is installed in and out of the storage room 161 formed on the rear surface of the body 110 as described above is configured.

The storage box 162 is configured with a body 162-1 in which a space is formed inside with the upper part open so that the excrement treatment material can be contained. The body (162-1) is finished in a rounded corner portion so that excrement does not remain on the inner corner portion. Guide grooves 162-2 are formed in the same number at the bottom of the body 162-1 to correspond to the guide protrusions 161-1 formed in the storage chamber 161.

In addition, a coupling protrusion 161-2 formed in the storage room 161 so that the user can check a state in which the body 162-1 is inserted into the storage room 161 or is separated from the body 110 when the body is withdrawn. A coupling groove (162-5) that is detachably formed in is formed at the bottom of the body (162-1).

In addition, a confirmation groove (162-4) is formed on the upper portion of the body (162-1), and the body (162-1) passes the infrared light emitted from the light emitting unit (163-1) of the detection sensor (163). In this way, the reception unit 160 can receive the reception so that the receiving unit 160 can be checked in and out.

A weight detection sensor for detecting weight may be installed at the bottom of the body 162-1, such as a pressure sensor to recognize the load exerted by the excrement and the excrement handling material embedded in the excrement. It is composed.

The storage room 161 has an inlet 111 to allow the storage box 162 to enter and exit, and is formed to correspond to the shape of the storage box 162 on the rear surface of the body 110.

It is preferable that the storage chamber 161 has a guide protrusion 161-1 formed on an inner floor, and at least two guide protrusions 161-1 are formed to facilitate entry and exit of the storage unit 160.

A coupling protrusion 161-2 is formed inside the storage chamber 161 so that the user can know a state in which the storage box 162 is inserted or separated from the body 110 by withdrawal.

In addition, an inlet hole 161-3 is formed in the storage room 161 so that infrared rays emitted from the light emitting unit 163-1 of the detection sensor 163 can be received by the light receiving unit 163-2. The inlet hole 161-3 is for reducing an error of the light receiving unit 163-2, and prevents the infrared ray reflected from the wall surface of the storage room 161 or the storage box 162 from entering and receiving light.

That is, the inlet hole 161-3 is drawn out from the storage room 161 together with the confirmation groove 162-4 formed on the upper portion of the storage box 162, and infrared rays are reflected by the storage box 162, or This is to prevent the storage box 162 from being recognized as a state in which the storage box 162 is not drawn out by receiving it from the light receiving unit 163-2 by being reflected on the wall surface of the 161.

In addition, the detection sensor 163 is composed of a light emitting unit 163-1 that emits infrared rays and a light receiving unit 163-2 that receives infrared rays, and is installed on both upper sides of the storage chamber 161, respectively.

Infrared light emitted from the light-emitting unit 163-1 is reflected by receiving only infrared rays that have passed through the confirmation groove 162-4 and the inlet hole 161-3 formed on the body 162-1 of the receiving unit 160. It should be possible to minimize errors caused by

The light-receiving unit 163-2 is installed at a distance from the inlet hole 161-3 so as to receive only infrared rays introduced into the inlet hole 161-3 through the confirmation groove 162-4.

The formation of the light-receiving part 163-2 at a location spaced apart from the inlet hole 161-3 prevents the infrared rays reflected from the wall surface of the storage room 161 or the storage box 162 from being received. The drawer 162 is not recognized as not being withdrawn.

It will be described the operation of the defecation treatment receiving unit for a pet defecation treatment apparatus according to the present invention configured as described above.

When a pet enters the inner cylinder 120 through the inlet 111 of the body 110, it is sensed by a sensor (not shown) and a signal is applied to the controller (not shown), and the pet is removed from the inner cylinder 120. When it exits, it is sensed by the sensor and applies a signal to the controller.

The controller applies a signal to a driving unit (not shown) to remove excrement and excrement-treated material (hereinafter referred to as'excrement') to remove excrement while the rake member 151 rotates by driving the motor. The excrement is separated from the excrement treatment material, and the separated excrement is discharged to the discharge hole 121 of the inner barrel 120.

The excrement discharged through the discharge hole 121 falls into the storage box 162 through the drop hole 142 of the guard 141. At this time, the falling excrement falls into the storage box 162 while being guided by the guide panel 130. The guard 141 blocks the excrement falling into the storage box 162 from falling to a part other than the drop hole 142 to fall into the drop hole 142.

The excrement is accumulated in the storage box 162, and at this time, the accumulated weight is sensed by a weight sensor and a signal is applied to the controller. The controller displays through a display lamp installed on the front of the body 110 so that the user can remove the excrement accumulated in the storage box 162.

When the user holds the handle 162-3 and pulls out the storage box 162 to remove excrement, it is guided to the guide protrusion 161-1 formed on the inner floor of the storage room 161 and is withdrawn in the direction in which the user is located. .

When the storage box 162 is pulled out, the light irradiated from the light emitting unit 163-1 is blocked while the light is extracted, so that the light receiving unit 163-2 applies a signal according to a state in which infrared rays are not received to the controller.

At this time, the controller determines that the storage box 162 is pulled out by the applied signal and cuts off the power so that the motor of the driving unit cannot be driven.

In addition, when the user discards the excrement from the storage box 162 and then combines the storage box 162 to the storage room 161 again, the infrared ray is repeatedly blocked and received by the light receiving unit 163-2, and the infrared ray is blocked and received. It is determined whether the storage box 162 is coupled to the storage chamber 161 by the repeated state.

For example, the controller counts the number of times the storage box 162 is in and out of the combined state, and determines whether the storage box 162 is in a combined state or a withdrawn state according to the number of counts, and at the same time, a weight sensor is used. Through sensing the weight, it is determined whether the storage box 162 is coupled to the storage chamber 161.

In addition, when the storage box 162 is withdrawn, the light receiving unit 163-2 repeatedly receives and blocks infrared rays, and then receives the infrared rays for more than 3 seconds along with the number of times of the count. If the weight is not detected, the storage box 162 is recognized as being separated from the storage chamber 161 so that the motor is not driven.

In addition, when the storage box 162 is coupled to the storage room 161 and the infrared ray reception is continued for at least 3 seconds after the blocking and light reception of infrared rays occurs repeatedly, the controller is the storage box 162 in the storage room 161 Recognized as a coupled state, the excrement excreted by the pet is removed from the inner cylinder 120 through the driving unit.

In addition, if the number of times that the light-receiving unit 163-2 receives infrared rays -> blocking -> light-receiving is more than the number of times, the controller determines that the storage box 162 is not pulled out from the storage room 161 or is not coupled to the motor. After controlling the operation of, an error message is displayed on the front of the body 110 so that the administrator can check it to prevent the excrement from falling to a part other than the storage box 162.

Since the entry and exit of the storage box 162 is sensed through the detection sensor as described above, a process of processing excrement in a state in which the storage box 162 is not coupled to the storage room 161 is prevented from occurring.

As described above, after the pet performs bowel movement in the defecation processing device 100, the excrement is moved to the storage box 162 and collected, and the administrator handles it at once, so the management of the defecation processing device 100 is easy. There is an advantage.

In addition, when excrement falls into the storage unit 160, it is collected in the storage box 162 by the guide panel 130, and is prevented from falling to the outside of the storage box 162 by the guard 141, so that it can be used in a clean state at all times. There is an advantage.

In addition, the present invention is a guide protrusion (161-1) is formed inside the storage chamber 161 to facilitate entry and exit from the body 110 of the defecation processing apparatus 100, the guide groove 162 at the bottom of the storage box 162 Since -2) is formed, there is an advantage that it is easy to move the storage box 162 in the storage room 161.

And the storage box 162 is coupled to the storage room or is pulled out by the coupling protrusion 161-2 formed on the inner bottom of the storage room 161 and the coupling groove 162-5 formed at the bottom of the storage box 162. There is an advantage of preventing a phenomenon that the storage box 162 is less closed by allowing the user to grasp the state.
