TOILET FOR Pets

The utility model relates to devices for collecting excrement and urine of domestic animals contained in residential buildings, apartments and the like (primarily cats and dogs), and can be used in the household.

It is a well-known and widely used toilet for pets (cats), which is a box consisting of a bottom and sides, partially filled with sand or sawdust to absorb urine and excrement. The use of such a toilet requires, in order to avoid the spread of an unpleasant odor, frequent cleaning with a change of sand (sawdust), which is a rather time-consuming operation, requiring the removal of a significant amount of contaminated solid waste outside the premises.

There is a toilet for domestic RABBIT (cats) in the form of a box consisting of a bottom, vertical sides and a bivalve roof, and the drawer is hinged to the base and equipped with a spring mechanism that keeps the box closed and in an inclined position relative to the base. When the cat steps on the cantilever part of the bottom, the box falls under the influence of its weight, the doors open and the cat goes inside the box (partially filled with sand), and then, after using the toilet, returns in the same way. The box, freed from the action of the weight of the cat, returns to its original position, and the lid flaps are closed (US patent 3316880, CL 119-1, publ. 1967). This toilet allowed less frequent cleaning without the spread of an unpleasant odor, but the cleaning operation itself is even more time-consuming and the amount of waste does not change significantly. In addition to the herm, a Rather complicated toilet mechanism powered by an adult

animal, may not work due to the weight of the cub. Finally, it seems difficult to accustom the animal to use such a toilet: in addition to learning to use itself, it is necessary to wean the animal from being afraid of the flaps that open before his eyes.

There is also a toilet for pets (cats), containing a box formed by vertical sides and a bottom, above which a perforated seat is placed, mounted on opposite sides, and an additional box with sand or sawdust is placed under the seat, having openings in the bottom (German patent 3028579, class A 01K 23/00, publ. 1982). For this toilet, the amount of waste is as significant as for the one described above, and the cleaning operation is quite laborious.

Closest to the proposed technical disclosure is a well-known pet toilet containing a drawer formed by vertical sides and a bottom, a perforated seat mounted on opposite sides of the drawer, and at least one perforated tray that is hung obliquely between the bottom and the seat on the free side of the box (RF patent 2048758, class A 01 K 23/00, publ. 1995). In this toilet, water can be used as a medium that absorbs feces and urine, and the amount of waste becomes less significant. However, the operation of cleaning it retains a known complexity.

The technical result achieved using the proposed utility model is to create a simple in design and compact toilet, in which the complexity of cleaning is minimized.

2 perforated seat mounted on the sides of the box, characterized in that

the bottom is made inclined, and the box contains pipelines for water supply and drainage.

The approach to the drawer of these pipelines allows for quick cleaning of the toilet with ease overcoming the bias characteristic of cats against water.

In FIG. 1 and 2 depict one of the modifications of the proposed toilet in the context and in a perspective view, respectively.

The toilet, shown in the drawings, is a rectangular box, consisting of an inclined bottom 1 and vertical sides 2. On the sides 2 there is a rectangular seat 3, consisting of a perforated bottom 4 and sides 5, based on the sides of the box. Through one of the sides 2, a conduit 6 for supplying water with holes 7 and a nozzle 8 located obliquely and approximately parallel to the slope of the bottom 1 is introduced into the box. In the bottom 1 there is a conduit 9 for the discharge of emissions washed off by water supplied through the conduit 6. Piping 6 and 9, if there are water supply and sewage systems in the premises, they can be connected to these systems, and if they are absent, they can be connected to special water tanks and waste collection tanks, respectively. All parts of the toilet - drawer, seat and piping - are preferably made of plastic (polyethylene, polystyrene, etc.) by stamping, although other materials and manufacturing methods can be used.

When using the toilet, the animal (cat) jumps on the seat 3 and is located in any part of its choice. Vchelcheniya animal through the holes of the seat fall on the bottom of 1 box. The toilet is cleaned by rinsing the seat with water from a flexible hose or any vessel, and then supplying water from the water supply system (or a special water tank) to the pipeline 6. When

3 by supplying water to the indicated pipeline, jets of holes 7 wash the bottom 1, and the jet of

the pipe 8 flushes all the waste into the pipeline 9 and then into the sewer (or into a special waste tank).

The toilet depicted in the drawings may be modified: the drawer may have a round or other shape, which in some cases may be more convenient. According to the change in the shape of the box, the shape of the seat changes.

Tests of the prototype toilet in the conditions in which several cats of different ages were kept in a residential apartment showed a quick habitability of animals, ease and hygiene of use and cleaning.

Although the proposed toilet is intended primarily for cats, it can be successfully used for keeping other small animals, such as dogs, in a residential apartment.
