This utility model discloses a water-pumping structure for a pet water fountain, including a base supporting a water tank. The base houses a rotary drive
assembly comprising a
drive motor, a magnetic turntable connected to the motor, and magnets mounted on the turntable. A water-pumping
assembly is located at the bottom of the water tank, including a water inlet cover connected to a water inlet slot, a magnetic rotor within the water inlet cover, and a
water delivery pipe connected to the water inlet cover. When the motor rotates, the rotary
assembly uses magnetic force to drive the magnetic rotor of the water-pumping assembly to rotate. The
centrifugal force generated by the rotating magnetic rotor draws water into the water inlet cover, through the
water channel, and into the
water delivery pipe, from where it is transported upwards to the water tray. This utility model, through the separate base, water tank, and water-pumping structure, not only achieves complete separation of water and
electricity in the pet water fountain and reduces manufacturing and maintenance costs, but also makes cleaning the pet water fountain simple, easy, and thorough.
