DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENT

The technical solutions in embodiments of the present disclosure are clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Apparently, the described embodiments are merely a part rather than all of the embodiments of the present disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts should fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.


Embodiment 1. Refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 8. A flip-type cat litter box includes a cat litter box assembly 1 and a purification device 2. The cat litter box assembly 1 includes a stainless steel bottom bowl 11 and a top cover 12 of a cat litter box that is disposed on a top of the stainless steel bottom bowl 11. A pedal 13 is movably embedded on the top cover 12 of the cat litter box, the pedal 13 is internally provided with a through-hole 131, and a transparent door 14 is hinged at a bottom of one end of the pedal 13.


The purification device 2 includes a purifier bottom shell 21 and a magnet 23 that is disposed on a side of the purifier bottom shell 21. The purifier bottom shell 21 is attached to a side of an inner wall of the top cover 12 of the cat litter box via the magnet 23 and an anion generator 24 and a sensor 25 are disposed inside the purifier bottom shell 21. The purification device 2 is attached to one side of the inner wall of the top cover 12 of the cat litter box via the magnet 23, may be independently removed for charging and overhauling, and does not need to be connected to a power source in use. This resolves a problem that there is no power supply at a position of the cat litter box. The anion generator 24 generates a trace of ozone while generating a large quantity of negative ions, to easily adsorb viruses and bacteria. This results in death of the viruses and bacteria due to a change in a structure or transfer of energy. In addition, electrode neutralization is performed between negative ions with negative charges and smoke and dust floating in the air with positive charges, to implement natural deposit. This implements a function of purifying the air. The sensor 25 is used to sense the cat entering the stainless steel bottom bowl 11. After a cat leaves, operations of sterilization and deodorization are performed immediately via the anion generator 24 and the sensor 25. This effectively resolves a problem of bacteria and odor of the cat litter box, so that the using is more sanitary.


As a specific technical solution in this embodiment, a connection hole 121 is provided on a top of the top cover 12 of the cat litter box, the pedal 13 is movably embedded inside the connection hole 121, a door hole 122 is provided on a surface of the top cover 12 of the cat litter box, and a bottom end of the transparent door 14 extends inside the door hole 122. The cat may easily enter or exit the stainless steel bottom bowl 11 from the door hole 122. The cat may also easily enter or exit the stainless steel bottom bowl 11 from the through-hole 131 on the pedal 13.


As a specific technical solution in this embodiment, the lock holes 123 are provided on both sides of one end of the connection hole 121, and positioning holes 124 are provided on both sides of the other end of the connection hole 121. Rotary shafts 132 are disposed on both sides of the pedal 13, the two rotary shafts 132 are respectively stuck into two positioning holes 124, and the rotary shafts 132 are L-shaped. The rotary shafts 132 match with the positioning holes 124, to further ensure stability of the pedal 13 when the pedal 13 is stowed inside the connection hole 121.


As a specific technical solution in this embodiment, two latch catch covers 15 are disposed at a bottom of the one end of the pedal 13, and a latch catch body 16 is movably disposed between the latch catch cover 15 and the pedal 13. A lock pin 161 that is inserted with a lock hole 123 is disposed at one end of the latch catch body 16, and a latch catch slot 162 is provided on a top of the other end of the latch catch body 16, and a latch catch hole 133 corresponding to the latch catch slot 162 is provided on a top of the one end of the pedal 13. An arc slot 151 is provided on a top of the latch catch cover 15, a spring 17 is movably embedded inside the arc slot 151, and a clamping slot 163 that is clamped with the spring 17 is provided at a bottom of the latch catch body 16. As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 to FIG. 5, and FIG. 7, when the pedal 13 needs to be unlocked, a finger of the user is inserted inside the latch catch slot 162 via the latch catch hole 133, to toggle the latch catch slot 162 and drive the latch catch body 16 to move. This enables the latch catch body 16 to compress the spring 17 via the clamping slot 163, to drive the lock pin 161 to be disengaged from the inner part of the lock hole 123, unlock the pedal 13, and flap the pedal 13. The pedal 13 and the transparent door 14 are opened in a flap-type manner. After the pedal 13 is unlocked, the user pinches the latch catch hole 133 with a finger and upturns the pedal 13, to enable the pedal 13 to rotate with the rotary shaft 132 as the center of the circle. Because the rotary shaft 132 is L-shaped, when the rotary shaft 132 rotates by more than 90°, one end of the rotary shaft 132 is clamped with inner parts of the positioning holes 124, to enable the pedal 13 to keep tilted at the top of the top cover (12) of the cat litter box. In addition, a transparent door 14 and the pedal 13 are folded together. Therefore, space for the user to operate the stainless steel bottom bowl 11 is greatly improved, and the user can easily clean up cat litter and cat feces in the stainless steel bottom bowl 11. Due to the stainless steel bottom bowl 11, odor and the cat feces are not easy to left, so that the user can easily clean up the stainless steel bottom bowl, and the using is more sanitary.

As a specific technical solution in this embodiment, a purifier face cover 22 is disposed on the side of the purifier bottom shell 21, the purifier face cover 22 is internally provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 26, and one end of the sensor 25 penetrates through the purifier face cover 22 and extends inside the top cover 12 of the cat litter box. The purifier bottom shell 21 and the purifier face cover are squares.


As a specific technical solution in this embodiment, a charging switch circuit board 27 and a battery 28 that is electrically connected with the charging switch circuit board 27 are disposed inside the purifier bottom shell 21, and a charging interface 211 and a switch button 212 that correspond to the charging switch circuit board 27 are disposed on the side of the purifier bottom shell 21.


Embodiment 2. As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 9. Compared to the above embodiment, the purifier bottom shell 21 and the purifier face cover 22 in the present disco lure are round. Compared to the purifier bottom shell 21 and the purifier face cover 22, appearance is more beautiful and comfortable, and more choices are provided to the user.


In summary, according to the flip-type cat litter box, after a cat relieves the bowels in the stainless steel bottom bowl 11 and leaves, operations of sterilization and deodorization are performed immediately via the anion generator 24 and the sensor 25. This effectively resolves the problem of bacteria and odor of the cat litter box, so that the using is more sanitary. The user toggles the latch catch body 16 to unlock the pedal 13 and upturns the pedal 13, to enable the pedal 13 to keep tilted at the top of the top cover 12 of the cat litter box. In addition, a transparent door 14 and the pedal 13 are folded together. Therefore, space for the user to operate the stainless steel bottom bowl 11 is greatly improved, and the user can easily clean up cat litter and cat feces in the stainless steel bottom bowl. Due to the stainless steel bottom bowl 11, odor and the cat feces are not easy to left, so that the user can easily clean up the stainless steel bottom bowl, and the using is more sanitary.
