[0002] Pet feeders, especially smart pet feeders, are one of the pet products commonly used by modern pet owners. They can automatically provide food to pets through preset programs and settings, ensuring that pets can eat on time and in the right amount, reducing the burden on owners and helping pets maintain regular eating habits. Pet feeders are mainly divided into traditional manual feeders and smart automatic feeders. Traditional manual feeders require owners to manually add food, while smart automatic feeders can automatically dispense food according to preset programs and even have advanced functions such as remote control and video monitoring.
[0003] Patent application number 202011189389.0 discloses a smart pet feeder. In this application, the pet food in the inner barrel is pushed back and forth by the feeding drawer, so that the pet food overflows from the upper end, which can effectively prevent the pet food delivery channel from being congested and stuck. This application has a pet food storage function, which can add food once and feed it multiple times, reducing the workload of pet feeding. The pet food in the inner barrel of this application is close to the upper drive disk, which reduces the air content at the upper end of the pet food, and can reduce the reaction between the pet food and the air, thereby extending the storage time of the pet food. This application pushes the feeding drawer to realize unloading, is simple to operate and easy to use, can be operated manually, and can also train pets to feed themselves; compared with the above application, and combined with the existing feeding method, when feeding pet cat strips and other food, it is necessary to hold the cat strips in hand, and it is inconvenient to control the amount of cat strips squeezed out during feeding, which makes feeding inconvenient and affects the practicality of the feeding process. For this reason, we propose a smart pet feeder. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0019] Example
[0020] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3The utility model provides a technical solution: as an innovative product of modern pet care, the smart pet feeder provides pet owners with a convenient, scientific and safe feeding solution. The smart pet feeder includes a lower shell 100, one end of the lower shell 100 is equipped with a laser head 104, one end of the top of the lower shell 100 is equipped with an upper shell 102, the top of the upper shell 102 is equipped with a decorative cover 103, the other end of the top of the lower shell 100 is equipped with an upper shell 2 101, and the other ends of the lower shell 100 and the upper shell 2 101 are equipped with a sealing cover plate 105. A lower lining plate 110 is installed at one end of the inner side of the upper shell 102, an upper lining plate 109 is installed on the inner side of the upper shell 102, a capsule body 111 is installed between the upper lining plate 109 and the lower lining plate 110, a rubber plug 106 is installed at one end of the capsule body 111, and a capsule plug 112 is installed at the other end of the capsule body 111. A drive shell 200 is installed at the other end of the drive shell 200, and a battery 108 is installed at the other end of the drive shell 200. The inner text of the lower shell 100 is located on the top of the drive shell 200 and is fixedly installed with a main board 107. When using the feeder in this application to feed cats, A capsule body 111 is fixed between the upper lining plate 109 and the lower lining plate 110 in the lower shell 100. When feeding, the button on the upper shell 101 is pressed. When pressed, the reduction motor 202 located inside the drive shell 200 in the lower shell 100 drives the worm 206 to rotate. The rotating worm 206 drives the transmission wheel 205 to rotate synchronously through engagement. When the transmission wheel 205 rotates, it drives the top gear bar 204 to limit and retract in the drive shell 200 through engagement. At the same time, one end of the retractable gear bar 204 pushes the capsule plug 112 inside the capsule body 111 to move. Before feeding, the rubber plug 106 at the other end of the capsule body 111 is pulled out. When the capsule plug 112 is squeezed and pushed, the cat strips in the capsule body 111 are squeezed out through the capsule plug 112, and the squeezed cat strips are squeezed out through the corresponding through holes on the upper shell 102 and fall into the groove at the end of the upper shell 102. The cat can lick the squeezed cat strips through the groove. While quantitative extrusion allows for better feeding, it provides a good way to cultivate domestication habits, avoid bites to the pet owner's hands during feeding, and better train the pet to use it, conveniently and easily enhancing the relationship between people and pets.
[0021] Specifically, a charging interface is installed at the other end of the bottom of the main board 107, and the charging interface is a Tybe-C interface. A shell cover 201 is installed on the top of the drive shell 200, and a reduction motor 202 is installed on the inner side of the drive shell 200. A worm 206 is installed at the end of the reduction motor 202. A gear cover 203 is fixedly installed at one end of the inner side of the drive shell 200, and a transmission wheel 205 is rotatably installed on the gear cover 203. At the same time, a gear bar 204 is also installed between the gear cover 203 and the shell cover 201. The worm 206 is engaged with the transmission wheel 205 at the bottom of the gear cover 203, and one side of the gear bar 204 is engaged with the transmission wheel 205 located at the top of the gear cover 203. The gear bar 204 is driven to move by the reduction motor 202, and the gear bar 204 is temporarily limited and retracted through the shell cover 201 and the gear cover 203. It is driven by the structure of meshing drive and changing the rotation direction, which ensures better driving while ensuring stable extension and retraction.
[0022] Specifically, the gear bar 204 is installed on one side of the capsule body 111, and the gear bar 204 can push the capsule plug 112 to move inside the capsule body 111 when it is extended or retracted. Two buttons are provided on the upper shell 101, which are respectively used to control the extension and retraction of the gear bar 204 inside the drive shell 200 and to open and close the laser head 104. When using the feeder, another button on the upper shell 101 can be pressed to emit a light point through the laser head 104 to entertain the cat for play, thereby improving the practicality of the feeder while also improving the functionality of the feeder.
[0023] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
