[0002] The information provided in this part is only background information related to the present application to facilitate those skilled in the art to understand the present application more thoroughly and accurately, and it is not necessarily prior art.

[0003] With the development of the economy and the improvement of people's living standards, more and more people keep pets, and pets such as cats and dogs have become the best companions in people's lives. During the process of raising pets, people need to provide food and water for them regularly, so pet drinking fountains have emerged.

[0004] At present, most of the existing pet drinking fountains on the market do not have a heating module. When encountering cold weather, since the water temperature in the water tank is too low, if the pet drinks directly, it will affect the gastrointestinal health of the pet. Therefore, to solve the above problems, some merchants set a heating rod in the water tank to heat the water in the water tank; among them, the heating rod is usually a heating rod with a quartz glass shell. Once it is bitten and broken by a pet, its glass pieces may cut the pet's mouth. For this reason, some merchants also use a metal heating tube as the heating rod, but its insulation performance is poor and it is easy to leak electricity, thus endangering the life safety of the pet.

[0005] In addition, a small number of merchants also achieve heating by setting a heating module on the base, but this heating module is usually not detachable, resulting in a complex structure of the entire base and poor versatility. Summary of the Utility Model

[0040] Referring to Figures 1 - 10 , this utility model provides a new type of pet drinking fountain, including a base 1, a water tank 2 detachably placed on the base 1, and a heating component 3 detachably placed on the base 1 and located at the bottom of the water tank 2. Among them, the heating component 3 includes a bottom shell 31, a heating plate 32 provided on one side of the bottom shell 31, an NTC temperature measuring probe 33 provided on the other side of the bottom shell 31, and a first control board 35 provided inside the bottom shell 31. The heating plate 32 and the NTC temperature measuring probe 33 are both electrically connected to the first control board. In addition, a power socket 34 electrically connected to the first control board 35 is further provided on the bottom shell 31, and the power socket 34 is used for plugging and matching with an external power cord to achieve electrical conduction. Thus, when the water tank 2 is placed on the base 1, the heating plate 32 abuts against the bottom of the water tank 2 to achieve heating, and the NTC temperature measuring probe 33 abuts against the bottom of the water tank 2 to achieve temperature detection.

[0041] Thus, by setting the heating component 3 as a detachable independent module, when encountering cold weather, the heating component 3 can be placed on the base 1 to heat the water tank 2. When not in use, it can be directly disassembled, which is very convenient to use. In addition, after the water tank 2 is placed, the heating plate 32 can abut against the bottom of the water tank 2 to achieve heating.

When the water level in the water receiving tray 42 is too high, it can flow into the water storage tank 411 through the overflow hole 421, and then flow back into the inside of the water tank 2 through a plurality of through holes 412 on the water storage tank 411.

[0053] Among them, a filter screen 43 detachably arranged on the top cover 41 is further included, and the filter screen 43 is located below the plurality of through holes 412. Thus, when the water in the water storage tank 411 flows out through the plurality of through holes 412, it is filtered by the filter screen 43 and then flows back into the water tank 2, thereby ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the water quality.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present utility model, a battery 15 is also provided inside the base 1. The battery 15 and the water pump 12 are both electrically connected to the second control board 13; the battery 15 can supply power to the water pump 12.

[0055] In summary, a novel pet drinking fountain provided by the present utility model, by setting the heating component 3 as a detachable independent module, when encountering cold weather, the heating component 3 can be placed on the base 1 to heat the water tank 2. When not in use, it can be directly disassembled, which is very convenient to use. In addition, when the water tank 2 is placed, the heating plate 32 can be in contact with the bottom of the water tank 2 to achieve heating. Since the heating plate 32 does not directly contact the water, it can ensure the cleanliness and hygiene of the water quality and there will be no risk of electric leakage, etc.; at the same time, the NTC temperature measuring probe 33 can be in contact with the bottom of the water tank 2 to achieve temperature detection, thereby facilitating the control of the water temperature.
