[0002] In the pet care industry, common pet cleaning, feeding, and interaction equipment are mostly single, independent devices. These not only take up a lot of space and are cumbersome to operate, but also cause pets to struggle and move around due to discomfort during the cleaning process. If pets are confined to a specific space by wire cages for cleaning, it is easy to cause uneven spraying of cleaning solution, creating cleaning dead spots on the body, and the cleaning agent can easily get into the pet's eyes and cause harm, thus exacerbating the pet's resistance. Secondly, pets often prefer to lie in their beds during daily feeding and have low interest in exercise, which increases the risk of obesity and other diseases in pets.

[0017] 3. The first magnetic block on the outer periphery of the rotating motion turntable corresponds to the second magnetic block on the flip plate of the automatic feeding component. When the turntable rotates, it intermittently triggers feeding, guiding the pet to actively follow the turntable to obtain food. This induced feeding method integrates the feeding process with exercise and entertainment, naturally increasing the amount of exercise during eating, thereby effectively reducing the risk of obesity and disease in pets caused by prolonged lying down, achieving scientific feeding and health management.
[0018] 4. The quantitative feeding mechanism can precisely control the amount of feed dispensed at one time by adjusting the lead screw and sliding feeding plate to meet the quantitative feeding needs of pets of different sizes; the collection basin assembly adopts a nested design, which is convenient for quick replacement and thorough cleaning, reducing the user's daily cleaning burden.
[0019] 5. This invention features timed and quantitative feeding and watering functions, combined with video interaction and day / night monitoring. Automated management is achieved through electronic display control equipment, allowing pet owners to remotely care for their pets even when away for extended periods. Furthermore, the independent resting compartment provides a comfortable space, the air vents in the bath tub enable rapid drying, and the sterilizing lamp maintains a clean internal environment, comprehensively enhancing the pet care experience in terms of comfort, convenience, and health.

The surface of the frame 1 is provided with sliding grooves 20a that slide with both sides of the sliding locking plate 20, allowing the sliding locking plate 20 to be adjusted to change the size of the locking holes. At least two positioning elements 20b are provided, both being bolt-like structures that threadedly engage with the threaded holes on the sliding locking plate 20. When the sliding locking plate 20 and the fixed locking plate 19 are in contact, the lower side of the positioning element 20b can be fitted into the corresponding second circular hole on the top cover plate 1b to achieve positioning and locking. Both the fixed plate 19 and the sliding plate 20 have flexible silicone pads embedded in their inner rings to protect the pet's neck. The positioning component 20b is a hand-tightening positioning bolt for easy and quick adjustment.
[0037] The electronic display control device 17 includes a touch screen and a built-in controller, which can be a PLC or a microcontroller. It is electrically connected to the conveying pump 9, control valve 14, drying equipment 12, rotary motor 34, lifting motor 39, feeding motor 67, brushing motor 4, sterilizing lamp 24 and various limit switches to realize automated control of bathing, drying, sterilization, quantitative feeding and movement detection. At the same time, the controller is equipped with a camera to monitor the pet's activity status.
[0038] Later, depending on how well the pet cooperates during bathing, a treat-spinning aid device can be added to encourage the pet to cooperate during the bathing process.
[0039] The control and operation steps of this device are as follows: The user selects the function mode through the electronic display control device 17. If the bathing mode is selected, the pet is first placed in the bathing tub 2, and the sliding plate 20 is adjusted to lock the pet's neck and the positioning part 20b is locked. After the system is started, the delivery pump 9 first draws liquid from the bath liquid tank 8 and sprays it through the bath liquid nozzle 10. At the same time, the rotary motor 34 and the lifting motor 39 work together to make the seat 31 slowly rotate and lift the pet to achieve multi-angle uniform spraying. Then the control valve 14 is opened, and the bathing nozzle 11 sprays clean water for rinsing. During the rinsing process, the brushing motor 4 is started, and the brush gently brushes the pet's body. The drain pipe 23 discharges wastewater. After rinsing, the drying device 12 is turned on, and the air outlet 12a blows out hot air to quickly dry the pet's fur. Finally, the sterilization lamp 24 is turned on for a set time for disinfection.
[0040] If the feeding interaction mode is selected, the user adds food to the feed hopper frame 62 beforehand, sets the amount of food to be dispensed at one time via the display screen, and the dispensing motor 67 drives the adjusting screw 64 and the moving block 65 to make the sliding dispensing plate 65a cover the dispensing hole to the corresponding opening degree. After the pet enters the area of the motion turntable 18, it runs on the turntable, causing the motion turntable 18 to rotate. When the first magnetic block 18a approaches the second magnetic block 617, the magnetic force pulls the flip plate 615 to open the dividing hole, and the food falls quantitatively into the collection basin assembly 612 and then through the receiving funnel 613 and the guide tube 614 into the food bowl 21. The pet needs to keep moving to get the food. At the same time, the electronic display control device 17 can record the number of rotations of the turntable and display the amount of exercise. The rest chamber 16 allows the pet to freely enter and exit to rest.
