[0028] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0029] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0030] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 6 A drinking tray and a pet drinking fountain according to some embodiments of the present invention are described.

[0031] like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a drinking water tray, comprising a housing 1, a water inlet 2 and a water outlet 3.

[0032] Specifically, a receiving cavity is provided inside the shell 1 , and the top of the shell 1 is set to be open; the water inlet 2 is opened on the side wall of the shell 1 ; and the water outlet 3 is opened at the bottom of the shell 1 .

[0033] When water is sprayed out from the water inlet 2, the sprayed water can rotate around the water outlet 3 and finally be discharged from the water outlet 3. During the rotation of the water, the inner wall of the shell 1 can be flushed to clean the impurities on the inner wall of the shell 1, thereby reducing the frequency of people cleaning the shell 1.

[0034] Embodiment 1:

[0035] like Figure 2 to Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a drinking tray, wherein the housing 1 comprises:

[0036] A bottom plate 101, wherein the water outlet 3 is provided on the bottom plate 101;

[0037] The side plate 102 is connected to the upper surface of the bottom plate 101 . The side plate 102 includes a first arcuate surface 1021 and a second arcuate surface 1022 . The water inlet 2 is provided at the connection between the first arcuate surface 1021 and the second arcuate surface 1022 .

[0038] The water outlet 3 is provided with one.

[0039] The water inlet 2 is provided with a first arcuate surface 1021 or a second arcuate surface 1022 which is aligned with the water outlet 3 and close to the water inlet 2 .

[0040] When the number of water outlets 3 is one, the water outlet 3 is located at the center of the bottom plate 101, the number of water inlet 2 is one, and the water inlet 2 is located on the inner side of the connection between the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022. The shapes of the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022 are the same and symmetrically arranged. The figures of the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022 in the horizontal direction are axially symmetrical figures, and then the direction of the water inlet 2 is perpendicular to the tangent of the midpoint of the first curved surface 1021 or the tangent of the midpoint of the second curved surface 1022. When the water inlet 2 starts to drain water into the shell 1, the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022 are both curved, so water will flow along the side. The inner wall of the plate 102 rotates, and then under the action of gravity, it will slide toward the bottom plate 101 during the rotation of the side plate 102. Due to the action of inertia, it will also rotate around the water outlet 3 on the bottom plate 101. During the rotation, the impurities on the surface of the bottom plate 101 will be flushed, and the impurities on the side plate 102 and the bottom plate 101 can be cleaned, thereby reducing the frequency of people cleaning the shell 1. In addition, since the water outlet 3 is opened at the center position of the bottom plate 101, the water will gradually pass through the water outlet 3 and be discharged downward during the rotation. In the process of water passing through the water outlet 3 and being discharged downward under the action of gravity, the water will generate a vortex, which increases the flow rate of the water around the water outlet 3, and further improves the flushing effect of the water on the impurities.

[0041] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a water tray, wherein an annular protrusion 4 is provided outside the water outlet 3 , and the annular protrusion 4 is provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate 101 .

[0042] An annular protrusion 4 is provided on the outside of the water outlet 3, and the annular protrusion 4 is provided on the upper surface of the bottom plate 101. The annular protrusion 4 and the water outlet 3 are concentric circles. Since the annular protrusion 4 bulges upward, the height of the top of the annular protrusion 4 is higher than the height of the water outlet 3. Therefore, when the water inlet 2 no longer discharges water, the annular protrusion 4 is limited, which can prevent the water on the bottom plate 101 from completely passing through the water outlet 3, thereby ensuring that the pet always has water to drink.

[0043] Embodiment 2:

[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a water tray, wherein two water outlets 3 are provided, and the two water outlets 3 are respectively located in the first arc surface 1021 and the second arc surface 1022 .

[0045] The water inlet 2 is provided with one, and the water inlet 2 is perpendicular to the line connecting the centers of the two water outlets 3 .

[0046] There are two water outlets 3, which are respectively located inside the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022. The two water outlets 3 are symmetrically arranged on the line connecting the midpoint of the first curved surface 1021 and the midpoint of the second curved surface 1022. There is one water inlet 2, and the direction of the water inlet 2 is perpendicular to the line connecting the midpoints of the two water outlets 3. When water is discharged from the water inlet 2, the initial flow direction of the water will be perpendicular to the midpoint of the line connecting the centers of the two water outlets 3. Since the side plate 102 is curved, when the water flows to the side plate 102 opposite to the water inlet 2, Under the action of the resistance of the side plate 102, the water will be divided. Part of the water will flow along the first curved surface 1021, and the other part of the water will flow along the second curved surface 1022. Then the two parts of water will rotate around the two water outlets 3 respectively. In the process of the two streams of water flowing into the two water outlets 3 respectively, two vortices will be formed. In the process of the water rotating on the side plate 102 and the bottom plate 101, the impurities on the side plate 102 and the bottom plate 101 will be flushed. At the same time, the flow rate of the water around the water outlet 3 will be increased during the formation of the vortex, further increasing the flushing effect of the water on the shell 1.

[0047] Embodiment three:

[0048] like Figure 5 to Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a water tray, wherein two water inlets 2 are provided, the water inlet 2 close to the first curved surface 1021 is aligned with the first curved surface 1021 on the side of the water outlet 3 located in the first curved surface 1021 close to the water inlet 2, and the water inlet 2 close to the second curved surface 1022 is aligned with the second curved surface 1022 on the side of the water outlet 3 located in the second curved surface 1022 close to the water inlet 2.

[0049] There are two water outlets 3, which are respectively located inside the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022. The first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022 are both axially symmetrical figures in the horizontal direction. The two water outlets 3 are symmetrically arranged on the line connecting the midpoint of the first curved surface 1021 and the midpoint of the second curved surface 1022 in the horizontal direction. There are two water inlets 2, which point to the tangent of the midpoint of the first curved surface 1021 and the tangent of the midpoint of the second curved surface 1022 respectively. When water flows out of the two water inlets 2, since the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022 are curved, the two streams of water will flow along the curved surfaces of the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022 respectively. During the flow of water, the impurities on the inner wall of the side plate 102 will be flushed. Under the action of gravity, the water will flow from the first curved surface 1021 and the second curved surface 1022 flow downward to the bottom plate 101. Under the action of inertia, the two streams of water will rotate around the two water outlets 3 respectively, thereby reducing the frequency of people cleaning the bottom plate 101 and the side plate 102. As water accumulates on the bottom plate 101, when the water level on the bottom plate 101 is higher than the annular protrusion 4, the water above the annular protrusion 4 will flow downward through the water outlet 3, and then the water inside the first curved surface 1021 will flow downward from the water outlet 3 inside the first curved surface 1021, and the water inside the second curved surface 1022 will flow downward from the water outlet 3 inside the second curved surface 1022. The water flow inside the first curved surface 1021 forms a counterclockwise vortex, and the water flow inside the second curved surface 1022 forms a clockwise vortex, and then the generation of the vortex will accelerate the flow rate of the water, further improving the flushing effect on the bottom plate 101 and the side plate 102.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a pet drinking fountain, comprising the water tray as described above, and also comprising a body 5, wherein the water tray is arranged inside the body 5, wherein a water pump and a water pipe connected to the water pump at one end are arranged inside the body 5, and the other end of the water pipe is connected to the water inlet 2 of the water tray.

[0051] When the pet drinking fountain is working, the water pump fixedly installed at the bottom of the body 5 pumps water, and the water enters the water pipe connected to the water pump at the lower end, and the upper end of the water pipe is connected to the water inlet 2. The water will be discharged from the water inlet 2, and the discharged water will flush the inner wall of the shell 1, and can also be used for pets to drink. When the water finally passes through the water outlet 3, the water returns to the body again, realizing water circulation.

[0052] The present invention has the following advantages:

[0053] By arranging a water outlet 3 and a water inlet 2 inside the shell 1, the water outlet 3 and the water inlet 2 cooperate with each other, so that the water sprayed from the water outlet 3 can rotate around the water outlet 3 and finally be discharged from the water outlet 3. During the rotation of the water, the inner wall of the shell 1 can be flushed to clean the impurities on the inner wall of the shell 1, thereby reducing the frequency of people cleaning the shell 1.
