Description

Cat litter box and evaluation method for detecting health of pet cat by using same Technical Field The invention belongs to the technical field of intelligent household appliances, and particularly relates to a cat litter box and an evaluation method for detecting health of a pet cat. Background With the increasing popularity of pet feeding, the health status of pets is also of concern to the feeding owners. The health condition of the pet is accurately and timely detected, and the method has key significance for preventing diseases and improving the life quality of the pet. Generally, in the condition of raising pets at home, the health monitoring means for pets mainly depend on daily observations of the feeder. For example, a feeding owner may initially determine whether a pet is healthy by observing the pet's excreta. However, most of the feeding owners need to work in the daytime, so that the pet cannot observe the form of the pet excrement in the first time when the pet excretes in the cat litter box. The moisture and smell of the pet excrement can be gradually dissipated along with the time, meanwhile, the form of the excrement is also easily damaged by the pet excreted by the cat litter box, and finally, the state of the pet is primarily judged by observing the form of the excrement of the pet by a feeding owner. It is easy to think that by arranging the camera in the cat litter box, after the pet finishes excreting, the pet excretes can be photographed by the camera, so that the pet owner can observe the excreting state of the pet at the first time, however, in practice, the pet owner can cover the excreting state in the cat litter due to instinct after the pet finishes excreting, so that the camera can not easily photograph the excreting state in the cat litter, and meanwhile, even if the excreting is not buried in the cat litter, the excreting state is difficult to distinguish due to the fact that the surface color of the excreting is the same as the background of the cat litter, and finally the pet owner is influenced to primarily judge the state of the pet by observing the excreting state of the pet. Disclosure of Invention In order to solve the problem that the feeding owner cannot clearly observe the form of excrement of the pet after the first time excretion, and the feeding owner is influenced to primarily judge the state of the pet by observing the form of the excrement of the pet, the invention provides the cat litter box and an evaluation method for detecting the health of a cat of the cat. The aim of the invention can be achieved by the following technical scheme: The cat litter box is characterized by comprising a cat litter seat, a cat sand pocket with a hollow inside, a screening net and a shooting camera, wherein the cat sand pocket is rotatably arranged on the cat litter seat, a drain opening, a screening opening and a containing opening are sequentially formed in the cat sand pocket along the clockwise rotation direction of the cat sand pocket, the drain opening is filled with cat litter, and the screening net is arranged on the screening opening and is used for screening the cat litter and excrement; The cat sand pocket is further provided with a screening groove and a containing groove, the axial direction of the screening groove is arranged along the clockwise rotation direction of the cat sand pocket, the front end of the screening groove is communicated with the screening opening, the axial direction of the containing groove is arranged along the anticlockwise rotation direction of the cat sand pocket, the front end of the containing groove is communicated with the containing opening, and the shooting camera is arranged on the cat litter holder and used for shooting the bottom condition in the cat sand pocket. As a preferable technical scheme of the cat sand pocket, the cat litter box further comprises a judging camera, wherein the judging camera is arranged on the cat litter box and is used for shooting the situation of being positioned at an outlet of the cat sand pocket. As a preferable technical scheme of the invention, the screening groove and the containing groove are of arc-shaped structures. As a preferable technical scheme of the cat litter box, the cat litter box further comprises a containing box with a hollow inside, wherein the cat litter box is provided with a containing groove communicated with the containing groove, and the containing box is detachably arranged in the containing groove and used for containing excrement.
