[0054] Pet ownership has become a new trend. For young working professionals, pets can provide relief from their busy work schedules and enrich their lives. However, working professionals often lack sufficient time to care for and monitor their pets. This has led to the emergence of smart devices such as home security cameras and pet water fountains.

[0055] Most existing pet water fountains work by continuously pumping water from the tank after the user turns them on. When the pet needs water, it walks to the fountain and drinks. More advanced pet water fountains use pressure sensors to detect the pet's water intake and send the data to the user's device via a cloud server, allowing the user to monitor their pet's drinking habits.

[0056] However, existing pet water fountains cannot determine whether a pet's water intake meets its health standards, nor can they employ strategies to promptly attract pets to the fountain when their water intake is insufficient.

[0057] Based on the above, this specification provides a pet water fountain 01 and system, which can effectively alleviate the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0058] Please see Figure 1 This embodiment provides a pet water fountain 01, which includes a water tank 10, a base 20, a water outlet tray 30, and a speaker 40. A first groove 11 is provided on one side of the water tank 10.

[0059] The water storage tank 10 is detachably mounted on the base 20. The water outlet tray 30 is disposed on the side of the water storage tank 10 away from the base 20, located within the accommodating space formed by the tank body of the water storage tank 10, and the outer diameter of the water outlet tray 30 is smaller than the inner diameter of the water storage tank 10.

[0060] The speaker 40 is detachably mounted on the base 20 and located in the first groove 11, the shape of which is adapted to the first groove 11.

[0061] like Figure 1As shown, the base 20 is similar in shape to the water tank 10, and a first groove 11 is provided on one side of the water tank 10 so that the speaker 40 can also be installed on the base 20.

[0062] The water outlet tray 30 is installed on the water storage tank 10, and the height of the water outlet tray 30 is lower than the height of the water storage tank 10. The outer diameter of the water outlet tray 30 is smaller than the inner diameter of the water storage tank 10. When water is drawn from the water storage tank 10 onto the water outlet tray 30, excess water can flow back into the water storage tank 10 from the outside of the water outlet tray 30. In addition, the water storage tank 10 is higher than the water outlet tray 30, so that water will not spill outside the water storage tank 10.

[0063] When a pet is not drinking enough water, you can play music or pet sounds through the speaker 40 to attract the pet to drink water in front of the pet water fountain 01.

[0064] Optionally, the water storage tank 10 includes a filter cover 12, which includes a first protrusion 121, a second groove 122, a first opening 123, and a second opening 124.

[0065] The filter cover 12 is detachably mounted on the side of the water tank 10 away from the base 20.

[0066] The first protrusion 121 is an annular protrusion. The first opening 123 is located inside the first protrusion 121, and the size of the first opening 123 is the same as the inner diameter of the first protrusion 121.

[0067] The second opening 124 is disposed within the second groove 122, which is recessed toward the base 20.

[0068] like Figure 2 As shown, the filter cover 12 can be placed on the side of the water tank 10 away from the base 20. A first opening 123 and a first protrusion 121 are provided on the filter cover 12, allowing water in the water tank 10 to be drawn through the first opening 123 onto the outlet tray 30. Filter material (such as pebbles) can be added to the second groove 122. When water is drawn onto the outlet tray 30 and flows back into the water tank 10 from the outside of the outlet tray 30, it will first flow onto the filter cover 12. Due to the first protrusion 121, the returning water will not flow back to the water tank 10 through the first opening 123, but will instead flow into the second groove 122, be filtered by the filter material, and then flow back to the water tank 10 through the second opening 124.

[0069] Optionally, a second protrusion 31 is provided on the side of the water outlet tray 30 near the base 20. The second protrusion 31 is an annular protrusion, located at the center of the water outlet tray 30, opposite to the first protrusion 121.

[0070] The shape of the second protrusion 31 is adapted to the first protrusion 121, and the inner diameter of the second protrusion 31 is larger than that of the first protrusion 121.

[0071] like Figure 3 As shown, a second protrusion 31 is provided on the side of the water outlet tray 30 near the base 20, so that the first protrusion 121 and the second protrusion 31 fit together. While fixing the water outlet tray 30, it further increases the airtightness of the first opening 123, ensuring that the water flowing back on the water outlet tray 30 will not flow back into the water storage tank 10 without being filtered, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the water in the pet water fountain 01.

[0072] Optionally, a third opening 32 is provided on the water outlet tray 30. The third opening 32 corresponds to the second protrusion 31 and is located at the center of the water outlet tray 30. The surface of the water outlet tray 30 is recessed towards the base 20.

[0073] like Figure 4 As shown, the third opening 32 corresponds to the first opening 123. When water is drawn from the water storage tank 10, it comes to the surface of the water outlet tray 30 through the third opening 32. Since the surface of the water outlet tray 30 is recessed towards the base 20, the water will first accumulate on the surface of the water outlet tray 30. When the water continues to increase beyond the edge of the water outlet tray 30, it will flow back from the periphery of the water outlet tray 30 to the filter cover 12.

[0074] Optionally, the pet water fountain 01 also includes a water pump 50. One end of the water pump 50 extends into the water tank 10, and the other end corresponds to the third opening 32.

[0075] like Figure 5 As shown, a water pump 50 is installed in the water storage tank 10, with the outlet end of the water pump 50 corresponding to the third opening 32, and the inlet end extending into the water storage tank 10 through the first opening 123. When pumping begins, the water pump 50 draws water from the water storage tank 10 into the water storage tank 10 from the inlet end and sprays it out from the outlet end.

[0076] Optionally, a control chip 21 and a pressure sensor 22 are provided on the base 20. The control chip 21 and the pressure sensor 22 are electrically connected.

[0077] Pressure sensor 22 is used to obtain the weight of water tank 10. Control chip 21 is used to obtain the weight from pressure sensor 22.

[0078] like Figure 6 As shown, a pressure sensor 22 can be installed on the base 20 to obtain the weight of the water tank 10 in real time. When the pet drinks water, the amount of water in the water tank 10 decreases, and the weight of the water tank 10 obtained by the pressure sensor 22 changes. The control chip 21 can calculate the amount of water the pet drinks by calculating the weight change of the water tank 10 before and after the pet drinks water.

[0079] Optionally, a water pump sensor 23 is also provided on the base 20. The water pump 50 is a wireless water pump 50; the water pump sensor 23 is electrically connected to the control chip 21.

[0080] The control chip 21 is also used to control the operating status of the wireless water pump 50 via the water pump sensor 23.

[0081] by Figure 5 , Figure 6 For example, the water pump 50 can be configured as a wireless water pump 50, and a water pump sensor 23 can be installed below the water pump 50. The control chip 21 sends commands to the water pump sensor 23 to control the start / stop of the wireless water pump 50 and the pumping power of the wireless water pump 50.

[0082] Optionally, a power module 24 is also provided on the base 20. The power module 24 is electrically connected to the control chip 21, the water pump sensing device 23, and the pressure sensor 22, respectively.

[0083] The power module 24 is used to supply power to the control chip 21, the water pump sensing device 23 and the pressure sensor 22 respectively.

[0084] Still with Figure 6 For example, a power module 24 can be installed inside the base 20 to supply power to the control chip 21, the water pump sensing device 23 and the pressure sensor 22 via cables or other means.

[0085] Optionally, the speaker 40 is provided with a power switch 41 and a volume control button 42. The power switch 41 and the volume control button 42 are located on the outer surface of the speaker 40.

[0086] The speaker 40 is electrically connected to the control chip 21 and is used to play music according to the instructions of the control chip 21. The speaker 40 is also electrically connected to the power module 24 and is used to achieve wired charging through the power module 24.

[0087] like Figure 7 As shown, a power switch 41 and a volume control button 42 can be provided on the speaker 40, so that the user can manually turn the speaker 40 on / off and adjust the volume of the music played by the speaker 40.

[0088] Connect the speaker 40 to the control chip 21. The control chip 21 can calculate the pet's water consumption multiple times, add up the multiple water consumption figures, and obtain the pet's total water consumption. Compare the total water consumption with a preset water consumption threshold. If the total water consumption does not reach the threshold, control the speaker 40 to play audio information to attract the pet to drink water from the pet water fountain 01.

[0089] Optionally, a camera can be installed on the speaker 40, and the camera can be electrically connected to the power module 24 and the control chip 21 respectively.

[0090] The camera can be used to detect whether the pet is attracted to the pet water fountain 01 by the speaker 40 to drink, and it can also detect whether the pet has finished drinking and left the pet water fountain 01. The control chip 21 can make judgments based on the image information acquired by the camera, and thus determine whether to turn the speaker 40 on or off. In addition, users can also establish a connection with the control chip 21 through a terminal device, and then remotely observe their pet through the camera.

[0091] Based on the same inventive concept, this utility model provides a pet drinking water system, which includes a server 02, a user terminal 03, and a pet water dispenser 01 as described above.

[0092] like Figure 8 As shown, the pet water system can be configured to interact with the pet water fountain 01, the server 02, and the user terminal 03. When the user is at home, they can control the pet water fountain 01 using the physical buttons on the pet water fountain 01; when the user is not at home, they can communicate with the pet water fountain 01 through the server 02 on the user terminal 03 and control the pet water fountain 01 through the user terminal 03.

[0093] The specific functions and structures of other parts of the pet drinking system have been described in detail in the embodiment of the pet water fountain 01 provided in this manual, and will not be elaborated here.

[0094] The above-described solutions in the embodiments of this utility model include at least the following technical effects:

[0095] Set up a speaker so that when your pet is not drinking enough water, you can play audio through the speaker to attract your pet to the water fountain, thus ensuring your pet's drinking health.

[0096] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
