1. A pet care machine, comprising:
a machine housing, internally provided with an air channel having one or more air channel inlets and one or more air channel outlets;
an electric fan, configured to form an air flow flowing into at least one of the one or more air channel inlets and out of at least one of the one or more air channel outlets in the air channel;
a combing member, comprising at least one group of comb teeth, wherein the comb teeth have a received state and an extended state; and
a motion area, located outside the air channel and communicating with the at least one of the one or more air channel outlets and the at least one of the one or more air channel inlets, and providing a space for transition of the comb teeth between the extended state and the received state,
wherein in the received state, tooth tips of the comb teeth are received in the motion area and close to the machine housing, in the extended state, the tooth tips of the comb teeth are extended out relative to the motion area and away from the machine housing to comb pet hairs,
wherein at least part of the air flow coming out of at least one of the one or more air channel outlets runs through the comb teeth in the received state and flows into at least one of the one or more air channel inlets,
wherein a portion of the machine housing is configured as a handle for the user to hold, allowing the user to operate the pet care machine to comb the hairs on the pet while operating to change the combing member between the extended state and the received state,
wherein the air flow exhausted from an air outlet of the electric fan flows through the handle, at least part of the exhausted air flow is circulated into at least one of the one or more air channel inlets after flowing out of the at least one of the one or more air channel outlets in the received state,
wherein a downstream end of the handle is connected to a portion of the machine housing defining at least one of the one or more air channel outlets such that at least part of the air flow flows through the handle, through the portion of the machine housing, then through the comb teeth.

7. A pet care machine, comprising:
a machine housing, internally provided with an air channel having one or more air channel inlets and one or more air channel outlets;
an electric fan, configured to form an air flow flowing into at least one of the one or more air channel inlets and out of at least one of the one or more air channel outlets in the air channel;
a battery, configured to provide electric energy to the electric fan;
a combing member, comprising at least one group of comb teeth, wherein the comb teeth have a received state and an extended state, and wherein in an extended state, tooth tips of the comb teeth are extended out relative to the machine housing to comb pet hairs;
wherein an air outlet of the electric fan is closer to the tooth tips in the extended state than an air inlet of the electric fan;
the machine housing has a hollow handle designed for single-handed operation of the pet care machine, wherein the handle forms part of the air channel, and at least part of the electric fan is located inside the handle;
when the electric fan is started in the received state, external atmosphere enters the air channel inlet, passes through the handle, and flows out of the air channel outlet, wherein at least part of the air flow flowing out from the air channel outlet runs through the tips of the comb teeth into the air channel inlet to form a circulating air flow.
