Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of pet feeding, and in particular to an intelligent pet feeding device. Background Art
[0002] Pets are animals that people keep for entertainment, companionship, or other purposes. They typically develop a deep emotional connection with humans and are typically dogs, cats, and the like. A pet feeding device is an automated device designed to address the problem of pet owners not being able to feed their pets at home all the time.
[0003] Patent number CN217217792U discloses an intelligent automatic feeding device for household pets, comprising a feeding tray, a delivery hose connected to the left end of the feeding tray, a spiral housing connected to the left end of the delivery hose, a spiral rod connected to the interior of the spiral housing, a material storage tank connected to the left end of the spiral housing, a tray cover connected to the left end of the tray cover, a left cylinder connected to the left end of the tray cover, an air pipe connected to the upper end of the left cylinder, and a right cylinder connected to the lower end of the air pipe. When the food is finished, the feeding tray moves upward due to the action of the spring force, the switch closes, and the motor drives the spiral rod to rotate, which pushes the food in the material storage tank into the feeding tray. The feeding tray moves downward. When the food is full, the switch opens. When the pet stands on the pedal, the piston of the right cylinder moves downward, and through the connection of the air pipe, the piston of the left cylinder moves upward, pushing the tray cover upward. When the pet leaves the pedal, the tray cover falls, and the pneumatic transmission of the cylinder pushes the pedal upward.
