Provided is a dust suction cabin and a nail grinder set. The dust suction cabin includes a cabin body and a dust suction device. The cabin body defines a nail grinding chamber that is used for grinding the nail of a pet, and a chamber wall of the nail grinding chamber is at least partially transparent. The cabin body further defines a dust removal port and two inlets communicating with the nail grinding chamber. One of the two inlets is used for the nail grinder to enter the nail grinding chamber, and the other is used for the pet's claw to extend into the nail grinding chamber. The dust suction device is used for sucking out the scraps generated during the pet nail grinding process through the dust removal port.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium that provides an enhanced synchronization framework. One of the methods includes a primary and a second device that receive configuration information which identifies one or more actions to be performed by the secondary device when it receives specified pulses of a sequence of pulses from the primary device. The primary device transmits a sequence of pulses. The primary and the secondary device receive a particular pulse from the sequence of pulses. The secondary device determines whether the particular pulse satisfies one or more predetermined criteria and generates an instruction based on the determination.
