Description

LED light diffusion based pet sterilizing device for pet based LED light diffusion [

The present invention relates to an oral sterilizer which is inserted into the mouth of a pet to effectively sterilize the mouth.

More particularly, the present invention relates to a device for inserting light for sterilization inserted into the mouth of a pet, which is a medium for diffusing light emitted from the LED, It is a technique that only the medium which diffuses the light is replaced without failing the oral sterilizer itself even if it acts to bite the substance.

In particular, the present invention relates to a technology for effectively sterilizing the oral cavity of a pet, since a medium for diffusing light irradiated from an LED is provided so that the size of the medium can be freely selected according to the characteristics of the pet.

Recent population aging, an increase in one or two households, and a change in the perception of pets as a loving friend and family member are increasing the number of pets growing every year.

However, there are concerns that pets may carry many diseases to people with weakened immune systems, such as children and the elderly. In particular, pets are considered to be one of the causes of allergies and asthma for children and the elderly.

And while we make a lot of efforts to keep pets healthy and clean, such as regular injections, health checks, periodic baths, it is not so easy to maintain oral hygiene.

Pets also form plaque (plaque) on teeth in the mouth. Before the plaque occurs, toothbrushing or sterilization should be appropriately done. Oral viruses that are not caused will cause an epidemic in animals as well as in humans. .

As a result, in order to eliminate the breeding of bacteria in the oral cavity of a pet, it is possible to brush the pet one or two times per day like a human being. However, it is difficult to care for brushing due to the nature of the pet.

In addition, it is very difficult to effectively remove foreign substances and germs simultaneously in the oral cavity by brushing, and in some cases, injuring the hands of a carer, it is very troublesome to keep the mouth of a pet clean.
