Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a pet water dispenser. Background Technology

[0002] A pet water fountain is a device that automatically circulates water for pets. Because the water fountain uses a circulating water system, when the water returns, the water droplets falling into the water storage area will produce a dripping sound, which is quite noticeable, especially at night when it is quiet. This sound can disturb people's rest, and this problem is common in pet water fountains on the market at present.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to make further improvements. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned problems. We provide a pet water dispenser that is silent when in use, with no dripping sound.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a pet water dispenser, comprising a housing and a cover. The cover is positioned over the upper opening of the housing, and the upper surface of the cover is recessed to form a drinking area. A water storage area is formed inside the housing, and a water pump is installed in the water storage area to supply water to the drinking area. The cover has a water guiding structure extending towards the bottom of the housing, and a water outlet is provided on the water guiding structure. A water level sensor is provided in the water storage area, and the horizontal height of the water level sensor is higher than the water outlet. A return water outlet communicating with the water guiding structure is opened on the cover, and the water level sensor is used to control the operation of the water pump.

[0006] In one or more embodiments, a water filter is provided in the water guiding structure.

[0007] In one or more embodiments, the cover is provided with a direct drain outlet, which is connected to the water storage area, and the horizontal height of the direct drain outlet is higher than that of the return water outlet.

[0008] In one or more embodiments, the water guiding structure includes an upper shell and a lower shell, the upper shell and the cover are integrally formed, the lower shell is detachably connected to the upper shell, the lower shell is provided with a downwardly extending column, and the water outlet is opened at the bottom of the column.

[0009] In one or more embodiments, the lower shell and the upper shell are fastened together.

[0010] In one or more embodiments, the face cover is provided with a downwardly extending water guide pipe, the output end of the water pump is connected to the input end of the water guide pipe, and the water supply port of the water guide pipe is located on the face cover.

[0011] In one or more embodiments, the water supply port is provided with a water inlet, and the output end of the water inlet corresponds to the drinking water area.

[0012] In one or more embodiments, the water level sensor is mounted on the outer wall of the water pump.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention are: the pet water dispenser limits the outlet of the return water to a horizontal height lower than the water level sensor. Therefore, when the water pump is working normally, the water level in the storage area is above the outlet, so the return water flowing out of the outlet will not produce the sound of dripping water, ensuring quiet operation.

[0017] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0018] See appendix Figure 1-3 This application provides a pet water fountain, which includes a housing 1 and a cover 2. The cover is located at the upper opening of the housing, and the upper surface of the cover 2 is recessed to form a drinking area 3 for the pet to drink water. A water storage area 4 is formed inside the housing, and a water pump 5 is provided in the water storage area to supply water to the drinking area. The cover 2 has a water guiding structure extending towards the bottom of the housing, and a water outlet 6 is provided on the water guiding structure. A water level sensor 7 is provided in the water storage area, and the horizontal height of the water level sensor is higher than that of the water outlet. A return water outlet 8 is opened on the cover 2 and communicates with the water guiding structure. The water level sensor is used to control the operation of the water pump. When the water level sensor does not detect water, it is determined that the water storage area is short of water, and the water pump is immediately turned off to prevent the water pump from burning dry. Since the horizontal height of the water level sensor is higher than that of the water outlet, the water outlet is always below the water surface, so there is no dripping sound.

[0019] The water guiding structure is equipped with a water filter 9, which can filter out hair and foreign objects in the return water. Furthermore, the face cover 2 is provided with a direct drain outlet 10, which is connected to the water storage area 4. The horizontal height of the direct drain outlet is higher than that of the return water outlet 8. Since hair in the return water may cause the water filter to become clogged, the direct drain outlet can prevent water in the drinking water area from entering the water storage area through the direct drain outlet when the return water outlet is clogged, thus preventing water from overflowing the face cover and flowing onto the ground.

[0020] The water guiding structure includes an upper shell 11 and a lower shell 12. The upper shell and the cover 2 are integrally formed, while the lower shell is detachably connected to the upper shell. The lower shell has a downwardly extending column 13, and the water outlet 6 is located at the bottom of the column. When the water filter becomes clogged, it can be replaced or cleaned by disassembling the lower shell. For user convenience, the lower shell 12 is fastened to the upper shell 11.

[0021] The cover 2 is provided with a downward-extending water guide pipe 14. The output end of the water pump 5 is connected to the input end of the water guide pipe. The water supply port of the water guide pipe is located on the cover 2. The water guide pipe and the cover are an integral structure. Preferably, the output end of the water pump is directly plugged into the input end of the water guide pipe, so that the water pump can be fixed on the water guide pipe.

[0022] The water supply outlet is equipped with a water inlet 15, the output end of which corresponds to the drinking water area. The water inlet can collect the output water before it flows into the drinking water area, thus preventing water from splashing around.

[0023] The water level sensor 7 is installed on the outer wall of the water pump 5 to fix the water level sensor in place and to facilitate electrical connection between the water level sensor and the water pump.

[0024] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. The protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Any equivalent modifications or changes made by those skilled in the art based on the content disclosed in the present utility model should be included in the protection scope recorded in the claims.
