DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0034] The present disclosure will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0035] Pet comb is a pet hair grooming tool, which can be used to comb pet hair, cut knotted pet hair, or thin too dense pet hair.

[0036] FIGS. 1 to 3 show a pet hair removal comb 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The pet hair removal comb 100 includes a comb head 10 mounted with a knife holder assembly 30, and includes a handle assembly 20 and a hair removal push plate 40. The comb head 10 is mounted at a front end of the handle assembly 20. The hair removal push plate 40 is mounted on the comb head 10 and located at a back side of the knife holder assembly 30.

[0037] The handle assembly 20 is provided thereon with a button assembly 50 that is slidable in front and back directions. As shown in FIG. 7, the hair removal push plate 40 includes a push plate 41 that is movable in up and down directions and a push part 42 provided at a front end of the push plate 41.

[0038] A connecting rod 60 is provided between the button assembly 50 and a back surface of the push plate 41. Two ends of the connecting rod 60 are respectively movably connected with the button assembly 50 and the push plate 41. The button assembly 50 slides to push the push plate 41 to move, through the connecting rod 60.

[0039] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the connecting rod 60 is arranged with a force applying arm 61. A back surface of the hair removal push plate 40 is provided with an arc force-bearing surface 43. A front end of the force applying arm 61 is pressed tightly on the arc force-bearing surface 43. When the button assembly 50 slides forward and backward, the front end of the force applying arm 61 is slidable in close contact on the arc force-bearing surface 43.

[0040] The connecting rod 60 is arranged with a force applying arm 61 between the button assembly 50 and the push plate 41, and the front end of the force applying arm 61 is pressed tightly on the arc force-bearing surface 43 of the push plate 40. When the button assembly 50 slides forward and backward, the front end of the force applying arm 61 is slidable in close contact on the arc-bearing arc surface 43, such that the action on the button assembly 50 is transmitted to the hair removal push plate 40 without delay. Therefore, the present disclosure achieves timely response and improves the user's experience of using the pet hair removal comb.

[0041] Because the force applying arm 61 bears part of the force of the connecting rod 60 on the push plate 40, the process of driving the push plate through the connecting rod 60 by the button assembly 50 is more effort-saving. Especially when the button assembly 50 is in a starting position, the effort-saving effect is more obvious. As the inclination of the connecting rod 60 and the force applying arm 61 increases, the effort-saving effect decreases.

[0042] Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 2, 3 and 8 to 10, the front end of the force applying arm 61 is provided with a first cylinder a1; the first cylinder 1 is tightly pressed on the arc force-bearing surface 43. A boss b is provided on the back surface of the push plate 41, and the arc force-bearing surface 43 is provided on the boss b. Specifically, the boss b is located at a central position between two coupling sockets c. The height of the boss b is greater than that of the coupling socket c, such that the first cylinder a1 provided on the force applying arm 61 is disposed more backward than a second cylinder a2 provided on a connecting arm 62. That is, the force applying arm 61 is shorter than the connecting arm 62.

[0043] The connecting rod 60 includes two connecting arms 62 and a back arm 63. The force applying arm 61 is located at a central position between the two connecting arms 62. A front end of the connecting arm 62 is provided with the second cylinder a2. A back end of the back arm 63 is provided with a third cylinder a3. The second cylinder a2 passes through a coupling hole c1 of the coupling socket c provided on the back surface of the push plate 41. The third cylinder a3 is engaged in a groove 52 of the button assembly 50.

[0044] The force applying arm 61 and the connecting rod 60 are integrally molded, and the second cylinder a2 provided on the connecting arm 62 is inserted in the coupling hole c1. When the button assembly 50 pushes the connecting rod 60, the second cylinder a2 is rotated relative to the coupling socket c. Therefore, it is necessary to enable the second cylinder a2 to have a certain amount of gap movement in the coupling hole c1. The amount of gap movement enables the delayed response of the button assembly 50 to push the push plate 41, and it is the core element of the first cylinder a1 on the force applying arm 61 that closely contacts the arc force-bearing surface 43. This allows the button assembly 50 to push the push plate 41 through the force applying arm 61 without a gap, thereby realizing the timely response of the button assembly 50 to control the hair removal push plate 40, which improves the user's experience of using the comb.

[0045] As shown in FIGS. 2, 3, 9 and 10, the button assembly 50 includes a button 51 slidable on a surface of the handle assembly 20, and a connecting lock member 53. The button 51 is connected with the connecting lock member 53. The groove 52 is provided on the connecting lock member 53.

[0046] The third cylinder a3 on the back arm 63 is engaged in the groove 52 of the connecting lock member 53. When the button assembly 50 is pushed, the connecting rod 60 is pivoted, and the third cylinder a3 can rotate relative to the groove 52 of the connecting lock member 53.

[0047] As shown in FIG. 10, the front end of the force applying arm 61 is located above the front end of the connecting rod 60. A connecting line of a center point of the first cylinder a1 and a center point of the third cylinder a3 and a connecting line of a center point of the second cylinder a2 and the center point of the third cylinder a3 define an angle A. The connecting line of the center point of the first cylinder a1 and the center point of the third cylinder a3 and a longitudinal movement trajectory line of the push plate 41 define an angle B. When the push plate 41 moves downward to push out the hair, the angle B gradually decreases. The arc force-bearing surface 43 and the second cylinder a2 have the same center. Through this structure, the first cylinder a1 disposed at the front end of the force applying arm 61 can always be in contact with the arc force-bearing surface 43. When the push plate 41 and the connecting arm 62 are displaced, the force applying arm 61 will not interfere with the connecting arm 62.

[0048] In addition, it should be noted that when the button 51 of the button assembly 50 moves at a constant speed from a starting point to an end point, the moving speed of the push plate 41 gradually decreases. As the angle B gradually decreases, the component force applied by the force applying arm 61 to the push plate gradually increases, which will cause the button 51 to require a slightly larger push force at the starting point and a slightly smaller push force in a position approaching the end point.

[0049] During the movement of the connecting rod 60, the first cylinder a1 on the force applying arm 61 contacts with the arc force-bearing surface 43 on the hair removal push plate 40 and applies a push force on the arc force-bearing surface 43. The second cylinder a2 serves as a positioning point and does not directly participate in the action of pushing the push plate 41. When the push plate 41 moves downward, the third cylinder a3 rotates in the groove 52. As the angle B gradually decreases, the push force required to be applied to the button 51 gradually decreases.

[0050] In addition, as the push plate 41 moves downward, a resilience force applied by a return spring 80 on the push plate 41 gradually increases, thereby reconciling the gradual decrease in the force of the force applying arm 61 in the above analysis. In the end, the force applied by the user to push the button 51 is basically the same, which further improves the stability of the push force applied by the user to push the button, thereby improving the comfort of the user pushing the button.

[0051] The comb head 10 includes a shell 11. Two return springs 80 are arranged between the shell 11 and the push plate 41. When the force applied by the user to the button assembly 50 is removed, the push plate 41 will return to an initial position under the action of the return springs 80.

[0052] Preferably, as shown in FIG. 6, the knife holder assembly 30 in this embodiment includes a plate-shaped base 31 and a row of strip-shaped metal comb teeth 32 at a front end of the plate-shaped base 31.

[0053] As shown in FIG. 7, the push part 42 includes a gap push part p for removing hair from gaps between the comb teeth. The downward movement of the push part 42 can remove the pet hair stuck between the strip-shaped comb teeth 32.

[0054] The shell 11 includes a bottom shell k2 connected with the handle assembly 20, and a head cover k1. The bottom shell k2 and the head cover k1 are fixed by a fastener.

[0055] The pet hair removal comb provided by the present disclosure is described in detail above. The principle and implementation of the present disclosure are illustrated with reference to the examples. The description of the above embodiment is only used to help understand the present disclosure and the core concept. It should be noted that several modifications and changes may be made by persons of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the principle of the present disclosure, and these modifications and changes should also fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
