Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2011124969A2] Device for the automated collection of pet feces, comprising a support mean (1 1) which functions as an operating element, having a substantially elongated shape and which includes a terminal element (25, 125) which has a first open end (16), a second gripping end (35), opposite the terminal element (25, 125), a containing segment (17), interposed between the open end (16) and the gripping end (35) and inside which a containing element (23, 123) for the feces is positionable, able to be closed and removed, a motorized suction mean (15) disposed between the gripping end (35) and the containing segment (17) in order to take in the feces through the open end (16) and convey the latter to the containing element (23). The containing element (23, 123) is associated with a mouth opening (20, 120) comprising at least a unidirectional shutter, or closing, element (21, 121) which allows the passage of the feces toward the containing segment (17) and inside the containing element (23, 123), and prevents them from exiting through the open end.
