Description

  The present invention relates to a toilet for pets such as cats and indoor dogs, and more particularly, to a sanitary toilet that can be easily processed after the stool and does not cause contamination of the indoor space.

  When a cat or indoor dog is kept in a house, a pet toilet is used to allow urine and feces to be excreted in a certain place by discipline.

  A conventional toilet for cats has a toilet body made of synthetic resin formed in a tray-like container consisting of a bottom and a peripheral wall, and the so-called cat sand such as zeolite, asbestos, silica gel, river sand, etc. The cat enters the toilet body during stool and defecates on the cat sand.

  By the way, if it is left as it is after the stool for the cat sand, a bad odor is generated and it is unsanitary. For this reason, prompt defecation is required after the stool.

  However, since the conventional toilet uses cat sand, the contaminated portion of the cat sand after the stool is easily diffused, increasing the amount of cat sand exchange and increasing the economic burden.

  In addition, since cat sand contains fine powder, the fine powder will scatter in the room when filling the toilet body, and it actually hurts the eyes, nose and throat of householders. .

  Therefore, the problem to be solved by the present invention is that the contaminated part is less diffused by the stool, the contaminated part after the stool can be easily treated, is economical, and the indoor environment due to the scattering of fine powder. It is to provide a pet toilet that does not deteriorate.

  In order to solve the above problems, the present invention forms the bottom portion of the toilet body formed in the container with the bottom portion and the peripheral wall portion by a combination of a flat portion and a groove-like concave portion that is recessed from the flat portion, A configuration is adopted in which water-absorbing paper chips are filled into the groove-like recesses.

  The toilet body is composed of a combination of a main body container having a flat bottom and a middle container that is detachably fitted to the main body container from the top, and the bottom of the middle container is formed by a flat part and the flat part. Also, it can be formed by a combination of groove-shaped recesses that are recessed, and a structure is formed so as to keep a space under the flat portion.

  Moreover, the cover which covers the surface of a flat part and a groove-shaped recessed part can be detachably fitted and attached to the inside of the said toilet main body.

  Here, the toilet body is formed using a synthetic resin, and the flat shape as a bottom and the planar shape of the groove-like recess can be freely set. For example, the groove-like recess is a cross shape. By doing so, the flat part divided into four is provided in the toilet body, and each flat part is made into a planar size enough for a pet to ride.

  The water-absorbing paper chips to be filled in the groove-shaped recesses are formed by stacking a plurality of roll paper rolls, for example, about 2 to 5 sheets, and cutting them into a rectangular shape of a suitable size with a scissors. The water-absorbing paper chip is formed and the peripheral edge is crimped by cutting with a scissors so that the overlapping state of a plurality of toilet papers is maintained, and the water-absorbing paper chip has an excellent water-absorbing structure. If it is filled like stuffing, it has excellent water absorption and low diffusivity, so the occurrence of fouling due to stool becomes partial, and it is possible to replace the damaged water-absorbing paper chip partially and reduce the amount of replacement There is an advantage.

  According to this invention, the bottom portion of the toilet body is formed by a combination of a flat portion and a groove-like concave portion that is recessed from the flat portion, and the water-absorbing paper chip is filled in the groove-like concave portion. If you defecate at the position of the groove-shaped recess on the part, moisture will be absorbed by the water-absorbing paper chip, this water-absorbing paper chip will prevent the excrement from spreading, and the treatment of the soiled part after the stool will be water-absorbing paper Only a partial replacement of the chip is required, and the soiled water-absorbing paper chip can be processed in the flush toilet, so the excrement can be treated in a sanitary manner, and the water-absorbing paper chip can be partially replaced. It is.

  In addition, the soiled water-absorbing paper chips can be processed in the flush toilet, so there is no place to store the filth collected in the garbage bag until the date of garbage collection, and you will not be bothered by the bad smell. During the loading and unloading, fine powder is not scattered and the indoor environment is not deteriorated.

  Furthermore, by covering the surface of the flat part and the groove-shaped recess with a removable cover, the toilet body can be kept clean by removing the cover even if the flat part or the groove-shaped recess is dirty. As a result, it is easy to dispose of dirt, and it is possible to save the trouble of regularly washing and drying the toilet container as in the prior art.

  Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with an example shown in the drawings.

  As shown in the figure, the toilet 1 for pets is composed of a combination of a main body container 1a and a main container 2 and a middle container 3 that is detachably fitted to the main body container 2 from the upper part. A thin cover 4 that is detachably attached to the container 3 from above is used, each of which is formed using a synthetic resin.

  The main body container 2 is formed in a container that is provided with a peripheral wall 6 around a flat bottom portion 5 and opens at the top surface.

  The middle container 3 has a size that can be detachably fitted to the main body container 2 from above, and is formed in the container by a bottom portion 7 and a rectangular frame-shaped peripheral wall portion 8 that rises around the bottom portion 7. The bottom portion 7 includes a flat portion 7a and a groove-like recess 7b that is recessed around the flat portion 7a, and the water-absorbing paper chip 9 is filled in the groove-like recess 7b.

  The planar combination of the flat portion 7a and the groove-like concave portion 7b forming the bottom portion 7 of the inner container 3 can be freely set. In the first example shown in FIGS. The groove-shaped concave portion 7b is formed in a cross shape so that a flat portion 7a divided into four is provided in the middle container 3, and a pet can ride on the flat portion 7a using the flat portion 7a.

  The height position of each flat part 7a is set so as to be located at the middle part of the height of the peripheral wall part 8, two sides are connected to the peripheral wall part 8, and the remaining two sides face the groove-like recess 7b.

  The groove-shaped recess 7b is open at the upper surface between the flat portions 7a, and the bottom surface of the groove-shaped recess 7b has a depth that overlaps the bottom of the main body container 2. The upper surface of the flat portion 7a is a gentle slope that is lowered toward the groove-shaped recess 7b. The small water is easy to flow into the groove-like recess 7b on the surface, and the boundary portion between the flat portion 7a and the groove-like recess 7b becomes an arc-shaped edge that descends from the flat portion 7a toward the groove-like recess 7b. Since the bottom of the concave portion 7b also has an arc, the attached dirt can be easily removed by cleaning.

  Below each flat part 7a is a space 10 surrounded on both sides by a groove-like recess 7b. When the inner container 3 is fitted into the main body container 2, the space 10 becomes a confined space. In this confined space, the appearance aesthetics may be improved, or the ornamental item 11 preferred by the pet may be accommodated. In this case, the main body container 2, the inner container 3 and the cover so that the ornamental item 11 can be seen. 4 is preferably formed of a transparent synthetic resin.

  In the middle container 3, the flat part 7 a and the groove-like recess 7 b may be integrally formed with the peripheral wall part 8, but the middle container 3 is a flat bottomed container and is formed separately from the flat part 7 a. The groove-like recess 7b may be incorporated in the peripheral wall portion 8, and in any case, the flat portion 7a can be provided with a design or decoration.

  As shown in FIG. 3 (b), the cover 4 covers the entire surface including the groove-shaped recess 7b from the flat portion 7a of the inner container 3 in a removable state, and removes the cover 4 when it becomes dirty due to excretion. By cleaning, the cleanliness of the pet toilet 1 can be maintained, and the portions overlapping the respective portions such as the flat portion 7a and the groove-like recess 7b of the inner container 3 are denoted by the same reference numerals as the constituent portions of the inner container 3. Instead of the explanation.

  4 and 5 show a second example of the combination of the flat portion 7a and the groove-like concave portion 7b that form the bottom portion 7 of the inner container 3. In the peripheral wall portion 8, the peripheral wall portion 8 is offset from one corner. A wide rectangular flat portion 7a and a thin L-shaped flat portion 7a are formed by providing the groove-shaped concave portion 7b in an L-shaped arrangement at a predetermined position.

  In any of the examples, a partition bar 12 also serving as a reinforcement is provided at an appropriate position in the groove-like recess 7b by integral molding, and excretion is performed by dividing the water absorbent paper chip 9 accommodated in the groove-like recess 7b into a plurality of parts. The water-absorbing paper chip 9 due to the object is partially prevented from spreading and the amount of water-absorbing paper chip 9 to be replaced is reduced.

  The water absorbent paper chip 9 is formed by stacking a plurality of rolls of commercially available toilet paper, for example, about 2 to 5 sheets, cutting this into a rectangular shape of an appropriate size with a scissors, The water-absorbing paper chip 9 has its peripheral shape pressed by cutting the overlapped toilet paper with a scissors so that the overlapped state of the plurality of toilet paper is maintained and not separated, and the chip shape is maintained. If the water-absorbing paper chip 9 is filled in the groove-shaped recess 7b, the water-absorbing paper chip 9 is filled with the water-absorbing paper chip 9 so as to have excellent water absorption and less diffusibility. There is an advantage that the water-absorbing paper chip 9 that has been soiled can be replaced partially, and the amount of replacement can be reduced.

  In the illustrated case, the toilet 1 for pets has a toilet body 1a formed by a combination of the main body container 2 and the middle container 3, and the cover 4 is used separately. However, the cover 4 can be omitted, The body container 2 and the cover 4 can be omitted, and the toilet body can be formed as an independent structure with only the middle container 3.

  The pet toilet 1 according to the present invention is configured as described above, and the middle container 3 is fitted inside the main body container 2, and a thin molded product cover 4 is fitted inside the middle container 3, and is covered with the cover 4. The entire interior of the groove-shaped recess 7b is filled with the water absorbent paper chips 9 so as to be uniformly packed, and the pet toilet 1 is placed and placed in a suitable place in the room.

  Since the water-absorbing paper chip 9 is a stack of a plurality of toilet papers, the hand is not soiled when it is pinched by hand and put into the groove-like recess 7b, and the water-absorbing paper chip 9 is fine when taken into and out of the groove-like recess 7b. No powder scattering occurs and the indoor environment is not deteriorated.

  During the stool, a pet such as a cat or dog enters the toilet body 1a and defecates toward the water-absorbing paper chip 9 filled in the groove-like recess 7b while riding on the flat portion 7a.

  The solid matter resulting from the defecation is placed on the water absorbent paper chip 9, and the water is absorbed by the water absorbent paper chip 9. The water absorbent paper chip 9 prevents the excrement from spreading, and after the stool the soiled water absorbent paper The chip 9 may be taken out with a tongue and partially replaced with a new water absorbent paper chip, and the soiled water absorbent paper chip 9 may be processed in a flush toilet.

  As a specific cleaning process, a sterilized hand soap diluted with water is prepared in a bottle container, and the sterilized hand soap is sprinkled only on the portion from which the dirty water absorbent paper chip 8 has been removed to absorb the water absorbent paper. Using several chips 9 and wiping them off, it can be cleaned just by wiping with water, and no extensive cleaning is required.

  In this way, the excreta can be treated in a sanitary manner, and it is economical because partial replacement of the water absorbent paper chip 9 is sufficient.

  Moreover, when using continuously, the cover 4 can be removed and wash | cleaned regularly, and the main body container 2 and the middle container 3 can maintain cleanliness to such an extent that it wipes.
