Furthermore, the present application sets the live parts and most of the transmission parts and the grain storage cover as one body, making the structure of the entire pet feeder 1 simpler, convenient for assembly during manufacturing, and convenient for users to disassemble and assemble during later cleaning and maintenance.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 5-Figure 8As shown, in an optional embodiment, the housing 31 includes a housing cover 311 and a lower housing 312, and a receiving space for receiving the control panel 32, the driving member 33 and the transmission assembly 34 is formed between the housing cover 311 and the lower housing 312. A rotating circular ring 313 is provided at the center of the lower housing 312, and the inner wall of the rotating circular ring 313 has a plurality of snap-in grooves 3131, and the upper end of the transmission column 40 has snap-in ribs 41 adapted to the snap-in grooves 3131, and the inner diameter of the rotating circular ring 313 is adapted to the outer diameter of the transmission column 40. The upper end of the transmission column 40 is inserted into the rotating circular ring 313, and the snap-in ribs 41 are inserted into the snap-in grooves 3131, so that the transmission column 40 is connected to the rotating circular ring 313 in a transmission manner. The outer wall of the rotating circular ring member 313 has a circle of teeth 3132, and the transmission assembly 34 includes a driving gear 341 and a transmission gear 342. The driving gear 341 is installed on the rotating shaft of the driving member 33, and the transmission gear 342 is meshed with the driving gear 341, and the transmission gear 342 is meshed with the teeth on the rotating circular ring member 313. In this embodiment, the rotation of the motor drives the driving gear 341 and the transmission gear 342 to rotate, and the transmission gear 342 drives the rotating circular ring member 313 to rotate, and the rotating circular ring member 313 drives the transmission column 40 to rotate, and then drives the first grain flakes 11 to rotate. In some optional embodiments, in order to facilitate the assembly between the transmission column 40 and the rotating circular ring member 313, the snap-in groove 3131 gradually increases toward the side of the transmission column 40.
[0037] In an optional embodiment, the grain storage cover assembly 30 further includes a plurality of elastic buckle assemblies 35, and the grain storage barrel 20 has a plurality of snap-fit grooves 20c adapted to the elastic buckle assemblies 35, and the elastic buckle assemblies 35 are snap-fitted to the snap-fit grooves 20c.
[0038] Specifically, the elastic buckle assembly 35 includes an elastic member 351 and a buckle 352. One end of the elastic member 351 abuts against the shell cover 311, and the other end abuts against the inner wall of the buckle 352. The buckle 352 includes an integrally formed main body 3521, an extension 3522 and a buckle 3523.

The buckle 3523 is arranged at the lower end of the extension 3522, and the buckle 3523 is inserted into the engaging groove 20c of the grain storage barrel 20. The shell cover 311 has a slide rail groove 3111 for the buckle 352 to slide. The main body 3521 is slidably arranged in the slide rail groove 3111, and the main body 3521 passes through the shell cover 311 for the user to press from the outside. During use, the user presses the main body 3521 to press the buckle 352 into the slide rail groove 3111, so that the buckle part 3523 is withdrawn from the locking groove 20c. At this time, the user can directly remove the grain storage cover assembly 30 as a whole from the upper end of the grain storage barrel 20.
[0039] In an optional embodiment, a sliding buckle 15 is provided between the base 10 and the grain storage barrel 20. The base 10 has a sliding hole 10d. The sliding buckle 15 is slidably provided in the sliding hole 10d. The grain storage barrel 20 has a snap-fit groove 24. The sliding buckle 15 slides in the sliding hole 10d to slide in and out of the snap-fit groove 24, thereby locking and opening the base 10 and the grain storage barrel 20 to facilitate assembly and disassembly between the base 10 and the grain storage barrel 20.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, the base 10 includes a bottom shell 12 and an upper shell 13 , the upper shell 13 includes a horn portion 131 and an annular portion 132 , one end of the annular portion 132 is connected to one side of the small opening of the horn portion 131 , and the other end abuts against the bottom shell 12 .
[0041] Specifically, the base 10 in the pet feeder 1 of this embodiment includes a bottom shell 12 and an upper shell 13 assembled with each other, and the upper shell 13 is installed on the bottom shell 12 to form a concave structure, which is convenient for the installation of the grain storage barrel 20. The upper shell 13 includes an integrally formed trumpet portion 131 and a circular ring portion 132, the large mouth of the trumpet portion 131 faces upward, the small mouth of the trumpet portion 131 faces downward, the upper end of the circular ring portion 132 is connected to the lower end of the trumpet portion 131, and the lower end of the circular ring portion 132 abuts against the bottom shell 12 to form a cylindrical cavity on the bottom shell 12. The grain storage bin 10a is located in the cylindrical cavity. It can be understood that the structure of the lower end of the grain storage barrel 20 is adapted to the shape of the trumpet portion 131, so as to facilitate the adaptation to the upper shell 13 of the base 10, and to facilitate the pet food in the grain storage barrel 20 to be leaked into the grain storage bin 10a below it.
[0042] In an optional embodiment, the pet feeder 1 further includes a rotating cover 50 disposed within the annular portion 132 , and a grain distribution bin 10a is formed between the rotating cover 50 , the annular portion 132 , and the bottom shell 12 ; the rotating cover 50 is transmission-connected to the transmission column 40 , and the first grain distribution piece 11 is installed on the rotating cover 50 .
[0043] Specifically, a rotating cover 50 is also provided in the annular portion 132, and the outer diameter of the rotating cover 50 is adapted to the inner diameter of the annular portion 132. The rotating cover 50 is in transmission connection with the transmission column 40, and the first grain-distributing piece 11 is installed on the rotating cover 50. A grain-distributing bin 10a is formed between the rotating cover 50, the annular portion 132, and the bottom shell 12, and the first grain-distributing piece 11 is located in the grain-distributing bin 10a. The first grain-distributing piece 11 moves synchronously with the rotating cover 50, that is, when the transmission column 40 rotates, the rotating cover 50 and the grain-distributing piece can be driven to rotate synchronously to distribute the pet food in the grain-distributing bin 10a to the grain outlet 10b. The present application forms a relatively closed grain-distributing bin 10a by cooperating between the rotating cover 50, the annular portion 132, and the bottom shell 12. The rotating cover 50 is in transmission connection with the transmission column 40, and when the motor drives the transmission column 40 to rotate, the rotating cover 50 rotates accordingly, thereby driving the first grain-distributing piece 11 installed on the rotating cover 50 to perform grain-distributing action. This design makes the food distribution process more uniform and efficient, ensuring that the pet can obtain food at a regular and quantitative time. Furthermore, the cooperation between the rotating cover 50 and the annular portion 132 makes the entire base 10 structure more compact, effectively saving space, which is particularly important for small pet feeders 1 and helps meet the needs of users to install and use the device in a limited space. The cooperation between the rotating cover 50, the annular portion 132, and the bottom shell 12 also ensures the stability of the entire base 10 structure.
[0044] In an optional embodiment, the pet feeder 1 further includes a connecting column 60 , which is coaxially arranged with the transmission column 40 , and one end of the connecting column 60 is transmission-connected to the transmission shaft, and the other end of the connecting column 60 is transmission-connected to the rotating cover 50 .
[0045] Specifically, the present application further provides a connecting column 60 between the transmission column 40 and the rotating cover 50. The connecting column 60 is coaxially arranged with the transmission column 40 to ensure the linearity and high efficiency of power transmission. This design reduces the loss of energy during the transmission process and improves the accuracy and response speed of the grain-shifting action. The coaxially arranged connecting column 60 and the transmission column 40 enhance the rigidity of the entire transmission system, making the equipment more stable and reliable during operation. The upper end of the connecting column 60 is connected to the lower end of the transmission column 40 in a transmission connection, which can be specifically achieved through a slot structure. A third grain-shifting piece 25 is provided between the connecting column 60 and the transmission column 40, and the third grain-shifting piece 25 includes a central column and an extension arm connected to the central column. The central column is located in the connecting column 60 and the transmission column 40, and the extension arm extends from the connecting column 60 and the transmission column 40. The connecting column 60 and the transmission column 40 both have a slot for accommodating part of the extension arm, and the upper end of the extension arm is located in the slot on the connecting column 60, and the lower end of the extension arm is located in the slot of the transmission column 40. Therefore, when the transmission column 40 rotates, the third batch of grain pieces 25 are driven to rotate, and the third batch of grain pieces 25 drive the connecting column 60 to rotate, and the connecting column 60 drives the rotating cover 50 and the first batch of grain pieces 11 below to rotate. The third batch of grain pieces 25 are located near the bottom wall 20b of the grain storage barrel 20, so that the pet food near the bottom wall of the grain storage barrel 20 can be moved.
[0046] In an optional embodiment, the grain storage barrel 20, the rotating cover 50, and the annular portion 132 form a grain storage bin 10c, and the bottom wall 20b of the grain storage barrel has a first grain leakage port 20a for pet grain in the grain storage barrel 20 to leak into the grain leakage bin 10c; the rotating cover 50 has a second grain leakage port 50a connected to the grain storage bin 10a. The bottom wall 20b of the grain storage barrel protrudes toward the rotating cover 50 with two spaced annular walls 21, and the annular walls 21 are provided with a second grain-diverting sheet 22.
[0047] Specifically, in the present embodiment, a grain leakage bin 10c is further provided above the grain allocation bin 10a, and the grain leakage bin 10c is formed by the bottom wall 20b of the grain storage barrel, the rotating cover 50 and the annular portion 132. The bottom wall 20b of the grain storage barrel has a first grain leakage port 20a, and the first grain leakage port 20a is used for the pet grain in the grain storage barrel 20 to leak out to the grain leakage bin 10c. The rotating cover 50 has a second grain leakage port 50a connected to the grain allocation bin 10a. The second grain leakage port 50a is located on the bottom wall of the bottom shell 12 of the base 10. When the present device is used, the driving member 33 drives the transmission column 40 to rotate, and the transmission column 40 drives the third grain allocation piece 25 in the grain storage barrel 20 to rotate, so as to allocate the pet grain in the grain storage barrel 20, so that the pet grain leaks into the grain leakage bin 10c through the first grain leakage port 20a. The rotation of the transmission column 40 also drives the rotating cover 50 to rotate, and two spaced-apart annular walls 21 protrude from the bottom wall b20 of the grain storage barrel toward the rotating cover 50, and a second batch of grain pieces 22 are arranged on the annular wall 21, and the second batch of grain pieces 22 extend from the annular wall 21 to the annular portion 132, that is, the second batch of grain pieces 22 are located in the grain leakage bin 10c. When the rotating cover 50 rotates relative to the second batch of grain pieces 22, the second batch of grain pieces 22 will stir the pet food in the grain leakage bin 10c; the rotating cover 50 serves as a boundary between the grain diversion bin 10a and the grain leakage bin 10c, so the pet food in the grain leakage bin 10c can leak into the grain diversion bin 10a through the second grain leakage port 50a arranged on the rotating cover 50, and then be moved to the grain outlet 10b through the first batch of grain pieces 11 to be sent to the outside.
[0048] In the present embodiment, the first grain leakage port 20a and the second grain leakage port 50a are arranged alternately. For example, the number of the first grain leakage port 20a is set to one. The number of the second grain leakage port 50a is set to three, and the three second grain leakage ports 50a are evenly arranged around the central axis of the grain storage cylinder 20, and the first grain leakage port 20a and the second grain leakage port 50a are arranged alternately, that is, the pet grain first leaks from the first grain leakage port 20a to the rotating cover 50, and then the rotating cover 50 rotates, thereby causing relative rotation with the stationary second grain sheet 22, so that the second grain sheet 22 shifts the pet grain, and then the pet grain is leaked from the second grain leakage port 50a on the rotating cover 50 into the grain storage bin 10a. By staggering the first grain leakage port 20a and the second grain leakage port 50a, the present application not only optimizes the outflow and distribution process of the pet grain, but also significantly improves the feeding accuracy and efficiency of the equipment. The second food leakage openings 50a are evenly arranged around the central axis of the food storage cylinder 20. This design ensures that the pet food can be evenly distributed on the rotating cover 50 during the outflow process, thereby avoiding local accumulation or loss of food.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 2 and Fig. 9As shown, in an optional embodiment, the rotating cover 50 includes a top plate 51 and a mounting platform 52 protruding from the top plate 51 toward the bottom shell 12 .
