Description

Animal excrement collector.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a dustpan of animal droppings, whose obvious purpose is to make the collection of excrement originating in the bowel movements of animals, particularly dogs, on public roads, parks, etc.

The object of the invention is to facilitate the work of collection of excrement without having to bend down or contact them, collection operation that Performs simply and with total efficiency.

Background of the invention

Numerous types of collectors are known from animal droppings, specifically dogs, in some cases manuals and constituted by a kind of plastic shovel or cardboard that in combination with a bag allows you to collect soil droppings and deposit them in the bag for deposit in a waste container. Such devices, of which numerous versions are known, suffer from the problem that in many Occasionally it comes into contact with feces, in addition to the user is in need of having to bend down to make the pick up

However, there are other types of containers which are constituted from a kind of cane so that the user does not have to bend down, and among them can be cited described in Spanish utility models U9700589 and U200100505, in which two containers are described constituted by a mast or cane that at its lower end incorporates a ring on which the mouth of the bag is arranged, to carry out the collection of excrement.

In utility model U9700589 referred to in First, the mast or pole is telescopic and allows to reduce its length while in the second utility model U200100505, the mast is full length and does not allow its reduction of length.

In both cases the collector is intended for place the hoop and therefore the bag whose mouthpiece is attached to the lower ring of the mast, in correspondence with the area posterior of the animal, so that it defecates inside the bag, not allowing direct collection of excrement from the ground.

Similarly, the utility model can be cited Spanish U9700418, referring to another excrement collector that, constituted from a cane, internally includes means that enable the emergence and withdrawal of tweezers to which a bag is linked for the collection of excrement, counting with springs, folding / unfolding elements of the clamps, etc, being also a single piece body element and without the possibility of See its length reduced.

Description of the invention

The collector of excrement that is recommended, based on the type of those referred to previously, that is to say in those that are constituted from a kind of cane or mast, with a handle on its top and with some elements of subjection for a bag in its lower part, presents a series of novelties that give rise to a series of advantages and benefits not reached with existing excrement collectors and, for of course, referred to in the previous section.

More specifically, one of the novelties of the invention is that the mast is formed by two parts articulated with each other that allow folding to reduce notably, specifically in half, its length, in addition to the handle or handle is removable, making the whole of the can be folded in its entirety and stored in a specific case that can be carried in a shoulder strap or by the hand part of the user until the use of the collector itself, or After using this one.

A trigger is arranged on the handle related to a cable that is linked inferiorly to about arms with the ability to diverge, and that in combination with wings sides fixed to both the mast and the arms themselves, they constitute the mounting and fixing means for a couple of pliers projected forward in parallel arrangement and with a jagged profile, allowing the collection of excrement and while avoiding the collection of sand, herbs, and other waste, being provided these clamps to stay in two accommodations or pockets established for this purpose at the mouth of a bag of special configuration, preferably quadrangular, in whose side pockets or housings are set for tweezers, allowing the pickup assembly to collect soil droppings directly or even dispose of the bag behind the back of the animal and get the bowel movements or droppings themselves fall inside the bag.

As stated above, the mast a from which the collector is constituted, it is foldable under of an intermediate joint, and whose joint is complemented with a safety closing element to prevent its opening accidental, or even to prevent it from folding, also accidentally, during use.

It should be noted that the collector described allows to collect more than one excrement without the need of change the bag and also highlight the fact that the cover of pickup transport fully folded, presents a special configuration with a tape for grip or transport, either manually or in a shoulder bag, and whose cover you can count on accessory pockets such as brush, replacement bags, etc, in addition to the flap that closes the commented superior Folded pickup carrying case can incorporate a anagram, even dog photography, etc., that is any type of motive, whether advertising, as a means of identification of the animal's own, etc.

Description of the drawings

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical realization of it, is accompanied as part member of that description, a set of drawings where with illustrative and non-limiting nature, what has been represented next:

Figure 1.- Shows a representation according to an exploding perspective of the collector of the invention, leaving to see all the elements and components of it.

Figure 2.- Shows a perspective view of the collector of the invention.

Figure 3.- Shows a view of the collector folded and housed inside a carrying case with a grip tape or shoulder strap transport by of the user.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As you can see in the referred figures, the animal excrement collector object of the invention is constitutes by means of a mast (1) of quadrangular section or rectangular, formed by two parts or sections (2) with an element of intermediate joint (3) that allows the folding of a part over the other and thus reduce the length of the mast (1), and so both of the picker, in half.

At one of the ends it incorporates a handle or handle (4) and a trigger (5), related to a rope or cable (6) that runs through the inside of the mast (1) and is related to a pair of arms or plates (7) fixed to the mast's own end (1), in combination with elastic wings (8) fixed in a common way to the mast (1) and to the ends of the plates or arms (7), so that the wings or elements elastics (8) tend to close the plates (7), which will open logically when the cable (6) connected to the same is pulled through the trigger (5).
more.

At the ends of the plates or arms (7) go fixed jaws (9) running parallel to each other, and with a distance according to the greater or lesser opening between the arms or plates (7), and whose jaws or clamps (9) are toothed profile and through them the collection of the soil droppings, avoiding by teeth that can collect sand, herbs or other waste.

The collector described is complemented by a bag (10) recipient of excrement, which is of rectangular or quadrangular configuration and on two of the edges of their mouthings are provided with two accommodations or pockets (11) for passage of the clamps or jaws (9), thus remaining hold the bag (10) in said jaws to allow collection Direct excrement from the soil, or place the bag in the back of the animal to receive excrement in the moment of defecation, all in a way that under the location of the jaws or clamps (9) in the housings (11) of the bag (10), it prevents them from getting dirty, avoiding manual direct contact

Finally say that the picker is constituted in light materials, such as aluminum, without discard other appropriate ones, finally complementing with a cover (12) that allows to transport the collector assembly in folded position, as shown in figure 3, and whose carrying case (12) has a strap (13) for its grip manual or for transport in a shoulder strap, as well as with pockets (14) for, for example, dog brush or other accessories, and even anagrams and motifs (15), such as the photograph of the animal, on a flap (16) of closing of the commented cover (12).

Through this collector users can collect the droppings from the ground without bending down, performing the operation with total comfort and allowing its transport when not It is used, in an easy, simple and comfortable way, to stay fully folded inside the case (12) as seen in figure 3.
