[0030] Embodiment

[0031] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 , which is an embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides a feeder with a food attracting function, including a housing 100. A channel 100a is provided on the housing 100, and a food feeding part connected to the channel 100a. A tray 101 is provided at the bottom of the housing 100. A guiding assembly 200 is provided between the channel 100a and the food feeding part. The guiding assembly 200 includes a conduit 201 and a blocking member 203. The conduit 201 is communicated between the channel 100a and the food feeding part. A plurality of blocking members 203 are provided in the inner cavity 201a of the conduit 201. The spraying assembly 300 is arranged on the conduit 201 or the housing 100. The spraying end of the spraying assembly 300 is communicated with the inner cavity 201a. The spraying assembly 300 is arranged on the conduit 201 or the housing 100;

[0032] Specifically, the food feeding part inside the housing 100 is used to store cat food / dog food and, when food needs to be fed, quantitatively feed the cat food / dog food into the conduit 201 of the guiding assembly 200, and then introduce the cat food / dog food into the tray 101 through the channel 100a. In this process, the blocking member 203 is made into a structure that emits a single tone. Through different arrangement methods of a plurality of blocking members 203, the cat food / dog food collides with a plurality of blocking members 203 inside the pipeline 201 to make sounds, forming music to attract pets to eat. At the same time, a plurality of blocking members 203 can also play a buffering effect on the process of the cat food / dog food falling into the tray 101. By arranging the spraying assembly 300 inside the conduit 201, spraying the spray with a food attracting effect into the inside of the pipeline 201, the cat food / dog food adsorbs the spray during the falling process, so as to achieve a better and longer food attracting effect. The cat food / dog food with the food attracting spray can also stimulate pets to eat.

[0033] Furthermore, a hopper 202 is provided at the connection between the conduit 201 and the food feeding part. The groove of the hopper 202 is an inverted truncated cone shape, which is convenient for the cat food / dog food to enter the pipeline, and at the same time reduces the large amount of cat food / dog food pouring into the pipeline in a short time, increases the duration of the cat food / dog food knocking on the blocking member 203, and extends the effect of music attracting food;

[0034] Exemplarily, such as Figures 1 - 5As shown, assembly holes 203c are provided at both ends of the blocking member 203. A gasket 203e is provided on the surface of the blocking member 203 that fits in the assembly holes 203c. The blocking member 203 is arranged in the conduit 201 through the assembly holes 203c. The blocking member 203 is a cylindrical structure with a cavity 203a, and uneven concave surfaces 203b are provided on its surface. The cylindrical blocking member 203 can be made of a hollow material such as stainless steel. By providing uneven concave surfaces 203b on its surface, the blocking member 203 is divided into different musical scales, and then a plurality of them are regularly installed in the pipeline. The cat food / dog food falls in sequence and impacts the surface of the blocking member 203 to produce sounds, which are strung together to form the required food-attracting music;

[0035] The spray assembly 300 includes a storage housing 301, a flexible strip 300-1, a cover body 302, a bracket 303, a telescopic motor 304, a push plate 304a, and a sprayer 307. The storage housing 301 is arranged on the conduit 201 or the housing 100. One end of the storage housing 301 is connected to the conduit 201. A cover body 302 is provided on the side of the storage housing 301 through a hinge. Flexible strips 300-1 are provided on the inner walls of both the cover body 302 and the storage housing 301. A bracket 303 is provided on the inner wall at one end of the storage housing 301, and a chute 301a is provided on the outer surface at the other end. A limiting plate 305 is slidably arranged in the chute 301a. A connection is provided on the limiting plate 305 such that the outer surface of the telescopic motor 304 is connected thereto. A push plate 304a is provided on the output shaft of the telescopic motor 304. A sprayer 307 is arranged in the storage housing 301. The spraying end of the sprayer 307 is clamped on the bracket 303 and extends into the inner cavity 201a of the conduit 201. The outer surface of the sprayer 307 is pressed against the flexible strip 300-1, and the bottom of the sprayer 307 abuts against the push plate 304a;

[0036] This spray device uses an existing spray can, places it in the storage housing 301, and the spraying end of the spray can extends into the interior of the pipeline 201. Ideally, the spray can is located at the bottom of the pipeline, so that the spray will climb upward along the inner wall of the pipeline and come into full contact with the cat food / dog food. The sprayer 307 abuts against the push plate 304a on the output shaft of the telescopic motor 304, starts the telescopic motor 304, and the nozzle of the sprayer 307 fixed at one end of the bracket 303 sprays the spray into the pipeline. The cover body 302 provided on the storage housing 301 facilitates the replacement of the sprayer 307, and the flexible strip 300-1 limits the sprayer 307;

[0037] Working principle; The working principle of the blocking member 203 is that cat food / dog food falls into the conduit 201 in sequence and impacts the surface of the blocking member 203, generating sounds to form a food-attracting music. Since concave surfaces 203b of different sizes are provided on the surface of the blocking member 203, sounds of different scales can be emitted, thereby attracting the target animals or insects to approach;

[0038] The working principle of the spraying assembly 300 is to utilize the sprayer 307 to spray a mist inside the conduit 201, thereby covering the cat food / dog food and increasing the attractiveness of the cat food / dog food. When the telescopic motor 304 is started, the push plate 304a abuts against the bottom of the sprayer 307, and the sprayer 307 sprays the mist. The sprayer can be fixed by the flexible strip 300-1 without displacement to maintain the stability of the sprayer. In addition, the setting of the cover body 302 facilitates the replacement of the sprayer 307 to maintain the continuous spraying effect.
