Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet water dispenser technology, and in particular to a pet water dispenser with a cat grass planting function. Background Technology

[0002] Cat grass (such as wheatgrass and oat grass) is widely recognized as a natural dietary supplement for cats. Existing research shows that cat grass affects cats through the following mechanisms: 1. Promoting digestion: The roughage stimulates intestinal peristalsis, helping to expel hairballs; 2. Nutritional supplementation: Containing folic acid, vitamins, and minerals, it compensates for the nutritional deficiencies in commercial cat food; 3. Behavioral induction: Chewing cat grass can relieve anxiety and satisfy a cat's chewing instinct.

[0003] Typically, cat grass is grown in large, independent pots, and pet cats are fed using separate pet water fountains or bowls. The cat grass growing tray and the pet water fountain are components of two separate devices, which take up a lot of space.

[0004] Therefore, in order to better combine the two, some manufacturers have proposed a structure that combines the two devices together. For example, a pet water fountain with grass planting function disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN216415571U includes a bottom basin with a water storage cavity, a top cover, a water outlet pipe, a water pump, and a filter assembly. The water outlet pipe is installed on the top cover, and the top cover is placed on the bottom basin. The bottom basin is provided with a vertical wall that divides the water storage cavity into a filtration zone and a non-filtration zone. The vertical wall is provided with a through hole that connects the filtration zone and the non-filtration zone. The filter assembly is set in the filtration zone, and the water pump is installed in the filtration zone. The water outlet of the water pump is connected to the water inlet of the water outlet pipe, and the water outlet of the water outlet pipe is connected to the non-filtration zone. The top cover is provided with a grass planting part for planting grass.

[0005] The aforementioned pet water fountain uses a single grass-growing area, with planting and maturation times roughly the same, which cannot continuously supply cat grass to pet cats. On the other hand, since pet cats tend to splash water when drinking, their fur gets wet and drips onto the ground, causing it to become damp. Cat grass, once it grows tall, can act as a splash barrier, but the aforementioned document does not make reasonable use of this effect of the cat grass growing tall.

[0006] Therefore, existing technologies still need to be improved and developed. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a pet water dispenser with cat grass planting function to solve the above problems.

Detailed Implementation

[0033] This utility model provides a pet water dispenser with a cat grass planting function. To make the purpose, technical solution, and effects of this utility model clearer and more explicit, the following describes the utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0034] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the directional descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicate the directional or positional relationship based on the directional or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 This embodiment discloses a pet water fountain with a cat grass planting function, comprising:

[0037] 10 basins;

[0038] At least one planting tray 20 is placed on the top or edge of the pot body 10, and each planting tray 20 is detachably connected to the pot body 10.

[0039] In this embodiment of the pet water fountain, multiple planting trays 20 are set on the top or edge of the basin 10. Any two planting trays 20 are independent and detachable. Users can fill the planting trays 20 with nutrient soil and plant cat grass in batches on different planting trays 20, so that the cat grass in each planting tray 20 matures at different times. After the cat grass matures, the planting tray 20 with mature cat grass can be removed individually and the cat grass can be picked to achieve batch feeding. Moreover, the planting trays 20 are set around the basin 10. When the cat grass grows tall, it is equivalent to a splash-proof wall. When the pet cat drinks water, it is blocked by the cat grass and it is not easy to splash. In addition, water stuck to the pet cat's fur can also be removed by the cat grass to prevent water from wetting the ground.

[0040] Furthermore, the planting tray 20 is connected to the pot 10 by a hook connection. The planting tray 20 is connected to a hook 21. The planting tray 20 is hooked and slid along the edge of the pot 10 by the hook 21. The installation by the hook 21 results in good structural stability, makes it less likely to fall off, and makes disassembly and assembly easy.

[0041] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the basin 10 has a first water trough 11 with an open top, and the planting tray 20 is suspended in the first water trough 11. By reasonably controlling the water level of the pet drinking water in the first water trough 11, the soil in the basin 10 is prevented from contaminating the pet drinking water in the first water trough 11.

[0042] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the bottom of the planting tray 20 is provided with several first water holes 24. The first water holes 24 help with drainage and ventilation, increase the respiration of the cat grass roots, and promote the growth of the underground roots of the cat grass. Moreover, the diameter of the first water holes 24 should be set smaller than the diameter of the cat grass main root system. The diameter of the cat grass main root system is usually greater than 0.5mm. Therefore, in this embodiment, the diameter of the first water holes 24 is set to 0.2-0.5mm, so that the cat grass main root system cannot pass through the first water holes 24, completely blocking the penetration of the main root and preventing the cat grass roots at the bottom of two adjacent planting trays 20 from intertwining. By limiting the hole diameter, lateral roots can be allowed to absorb water but cannot grow through it. In addition, the spacing between the first water holes 24 is 2-3mm, which can limit the lateral expansion space of the roots, avoid cross-entanglement, ensure uniform water penetration, and avoid local water accumulation that leads to mold.

[0043] Example 2

[0044] Please refer to Figure 4 In this embodiment, the basin 10 adopts a rectangular structure. Of course, the basin 10 is not limited to a rectangle, and can also be circular, elliptical, hexagonal, irregular, etc. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. These equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of this utility model.

[0045] Example 3

[0046] Please refer to Figures 5 to 7 In this embodiment, the planting tray 20 is connected to the pot 10 by a sliding rail connection. The upper edge of the planting tray 20 is connected to a limiting block 22. The planting tray 20 is suspended and slides along the edge of the pot 10 by the limiting block 22. Due to the blocking effect of the limiting block 22, when the user installs the planting tray 20, he / she only needs to align it with the position of the second water tank 13 and put the planting tray 20 down to complete the installation. The installation is convenient.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 7 The inner side of the planting tray 20 is provided with a bottom water-absorbing material layer 31. The water-absorbing material layer 31 is provided with several second water holes (not shown). The diameter of the second water holes is 0.2-0.5mm. By setting the second water holes and limiting the diameter of the holes, the penetration of the main root is completely blocked, allowing the lateral roots to absorb water but preventing them from growing through.

[0048] In addition, a planting soil layer is provided on the upper part of the water-absorbing material layer 31. The planting soil layer includes a first nutrient soil material layer 32, a cat grass seed layer 33, and a second nutrient soil material layer 34. By setting a water-absorbing material layer 31 at the bottom of the planting soil layer, the water-absorbing material layer 31 is made of a material with good water absorption and air permeability. Each time the cat grass is watered, the water will soak through the planting soil layer and then absorb the excess water through the water-absorbing material layer 31, thereby avoiding water accumulation in the planting tray 20 and reducing the chance of root rot in the cat grass. At the same time, it can also increase the permeability of the soil, allowing the cat grass roots to breathe better in the soil, which is conducive to the growth and development of the cat grass.

[0049] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a soil erosion prevention netting material layer 35 is provided at the upper end of the planting soil layer to prevent soil loss in the planting tray 20 during watering.

[0050] Furthermore, the basin 10 in this embodiment has an inner groove 12 and a second water trough 13 surrounding the inner groove 12, with a baffle between the inner groove 12 and the second water trough 13; a drinking device 40 is provided in the inner groove 12, the drinking device 40 includes a water tank 41, a filter device located in the water tank 41, a water outlet structure 42 located at the top of the water tank 41, and a drinking tray 43. The water tank 41 has a circulating water chamber. The water pump in the filter device draws the circulating water out of the circulating water chamber, filters it through the filter element in the filter device, discharges it from the water outlet structure 42, and then flows into the drinking tray 43. The water on the drinking tray 43 then flows back into the circulating water chamber; in this embodiment, the planting tray 20 is slidable inside the second water trough 13. When the cat grass grows tall, it acts as a splash-proof wall. When the pet cat drinks water from the drinking tray 43, it is blocked by the cat grass, making it less likely to splash. Moreover, water stuck to the pet cat's fur can also be removed by the cat grass, preventing water from wetting the ground.

[0051] Example 4

[0052] Please refer to Figure 8 In this embodiment, the planting tray 20 and the pot body 10 are connected by friction sliding connection. The bottom of the planting tray 20 is provided with a support frame 23. The planting tray 20 is suspended and slides on the edge of the pot body 10 through the support frame 23. When the user installs the planting tray 20, he / she only needs to align it with the position of the second water tank 13 and put the planting tray 20 down to complete the installation. The installation is convenient.

[0053] In addition, in other embodiments, the planting tray 20 and the pot 10 can also be connected by magnetic attraction. A first magnet (not shown) is fixed on the planting tray 20 and a second magnet (not shown) is fixed on the pot 10, so that the first magnet and the second magnet magnetically engage to achieve quick positioning and quick disassembly.

[0054] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
