[0002] With the rapid development of the pet industry, pets have become increasingly important companions in people's lives. More and more people are starting to keep pets, and feeding them a healthy diet is crucial to ensuring their health. Currently, there are pet feeding devices on the market that can regularly and continuously feed pets, eliminating the tedious manual feeding process and addressing the need to feed pets when owners are away.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN217407391U discloses a grain storage module for a pet feeder, comprising a grain storage barrel and a grain discharging structure. The grain storage barrel comprises a barrel body and an opening provided on the barrel body. The grain discharging structure comprises a stirring blade, a grain distributing assembly, and a shell assembly having a receiving chamber. The shell assembly is provided with a grain drop-in port and a grain discharging port. The grain distributing assembly is provided in the receiving chamber. The grain distributing assembly comprises a transmission shaft, a grain distributing bin, and a grain distributing partition. The stirring blade is connected to one end of the transmission shaft and is located outside the receiving chamber. The grain discharging structure is provided with a quick-connect structure for quickly disassembling and connecting the grain storage barrel. After the grain discharging structure is connected to the grain storage barrel, the grain drop-in port is connected to the opening. The existing grain distributing assembly has inaccurate quantitative measurement, and there is a problem of grain jamming when feeding. As a result, the grain discharging channel cannot be closed, causing the grain in the grain storage barrel to become damp and deteriorate, affecting the feeding of pet food.

[0004] While some pre-packaged pet food products, such as small packages of cat and dog food and canned pet food, accurately measure quantity, they cannot adequately meet the feeding needs of pets of varying sizes and appetites. In particular, the pre-packaged pet food cans currently on the market are all disposable and sealed, requiring manual opening. This makes them difficult to meet the requirements of intelligent, automated feeding management for automatic, timed, and pre-packaged feeding.

[0005] Therefore, the existing technology still needs to be improved and developed. Utility Model Content
