Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet drinking technology, and in particular to a new type of split-type intelligent pet drinking fountain. Background Technology

[0002] Pets are creatures kept by people for spiritual purposes rather than economic purposes. Traditionally, pets refer to mammals or birds, kept for enjoyment and companionship. In real life, pets include cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, amphibians, insects, and even plants, kept for viewing, companionship, and relieving people's mental stress.

[0003] To make it easier for pets to drink water, smart pet water fountains are commonly used. These fountains are usually equipped with sensors that monitor water levels and quality to ensure a sufficient and pure water supply.

[0004] Currently available smart pet water fountains pose a risk of electric leakage during actual use. Even a weak current can harm small, electrically sensitive pets. They are also difficult to clean. Pet water fountains typically have a complex structure and are powered by electricity, so users are always worried about electric shock or water damage during cleaning. However, if they are not thoroughly cleaned over a long period of time, bacteria can easily grow and form biofilms, leading to poor water quality and unpleasant odors. Moreover, the cleaning process is tedious and requires a lot of time and effort from users.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new type of split-type intelligent pet water dispenser to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model provides a new type of split-type intelligent pet water fountain, which solves the problems of electric leakage hazards and cumbersome cleaning process that require users to spend a lot of time and energy on current intelligent pet water fountains on the market.

[0046] Compared with related technologies, the new split-type intelligent pet water dispenser with the novel structure provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0047] To facilitate cleaning and ensure safety during use of the smart pet water fountain, the water tray 5 is attached to the top of the water tank 1. Removing the water tray 5 makes cleaning the water tank 1 easier. Then, the main unit's front cover 3 is installed in the mounting port 7 on the back of the water tank 1, facilitating future maintenance of the internal structure. Inside the main unit's front cover 3, a disc-type centrifugal pump assembly 13 is installed via a mounting plate 14, with one end of the disc-type centrifugal pump assembly 13 positioned inside the water tank 1. The connection is sealed to prevent leakage. A water outlet 2 is installed on the disc-type centrifugal pump assembly 13, allowing filtered water from the water tank 1 to be delivered to the water tray 5 through the water outlet 2. The disc-type centrifugal pump assembly 13 consists of an inlet filter element cap 135 and an inlet filter element 13. 6.

It features an integrated filter structure and a two-layer separation design of the stator and rotor 140, allowing users to directly rinse the water tank without worrying about electric shock or water damage during cleaning. Pets are also protected from electric shock, including static electricity issues.

[0048] Second Embodiment

[0049] Please refer to the following: Figures 5-6 , Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the second embodiment of the novel split-type intelligent pet water dispenser provided by this utility model; Figure 6 Provided for this utility model Figure 5 The enlarged view at point A shows a split-type smart pet water fountain with a novel structure based on the first embodiment of this application. The second embodiment of this application proposes another split-type smart pet water fountain with a novel structure. The second embodiment is merely a preferred embodiment of the first embodiment, and its implementation will not affect the independent implementation of the first embodiment.

[0050] Specifically, the difference in the split-type intelligent pet water dispenser with a new structure provided in the second embodiment of this application is that the bottom of the water receiving tray 5 is fixedly connected to the two sides with buckles 17, and the bottom of the buckles 17 is threaded with bolts 20.

[0051] The latch 17 is located below the hole 4 near both sides, and the latch 17 allows the latch block 23 to be inserted from the front.

[0052] A docking frame 21 is installed below the water receiving tray 5 via two locking blocks 23. A filter frame 19 with filter holes 18 is installed at the bottom of the docking frame 21. Threaded holes 22 are provided at the bottom of each locking block 23.

[0053] The threaded hole 22 is for easy threaded connection with the bolt 20, and the mating frame 21 is located below the drain hole 4.

[0054] Compared with related technologies, the new split-type intelligent pet water dispenser with the novel structure provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0055] To prevent floating debris remaining in the water tray 5 from entering the water tank 1 through the drain hole 4 and contaminating the pet's drinking water, two clips 17 with bolts 20 are installed below the water tray 5 at positions corresponding to the drain hole 4. Then, a connecting frame 21 with a locking block 23 is installed below the water tray 5, and the locking block 23 is fixed inside the clips 17 with bolts 20 to increase stability. At the bottom of the connecting frame 21, a filter frame 19 with filter holes 18 is installed. In actual use, floating debris that falls from the pet into the water tray 5 will pass through the drain hole 4 and fall directly into the filter frame 19 for filtration. Since the filter holes 18 are smaller than the drain hole 4, they can block smaller floating debris and prevent it from falling into the water tank 1. The staff only needs to periodically remove the bolts 20 and remove the filter frame 19 for cleaning. This structure can prevent floating debris from falling into the water tank 1 through the drain hole 4.

[0056] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
