Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a feeding device. In particular, it relates to a pet feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous advancement of technology, all kinds of electronic products have been widely used by the public and have gradually become devices that consumers frequently use in their daily lives.

[0003] With declining birth rates, an aging population, and an increase in the number of people choosing not to marry or have children, people are turning to animals for emotional comfort, leading to a significant increase in the willingness to keep pets. Many people treat their pets like their own children, and feeding them leftovers is no longer the norm. Providing healthy and refined food for their furry friends has become the focus, resulting in a wide variety of dry and wet food, fresh food, snacks, and even pet-specific health supplements and functional foods available everywhere in pet stores, convenience stores, supermarkets, and e-commerce platforms.

[0004] Since pets are also family members, owners are more willing to spend money, and their furry friends eat better. However, due to busy work schedules, irregular commutes, or business trips and travel, modern people are unable to feed their pets regularly. Pet feeders allow for timed and measured feedings, preventing such disruptions and improving the quality and convenience of pet care.

[0005] However, given the limited living space in modern homes or the need to match interior design requirements, providing a flexible pet feeder would help pet owners feel more at ease feeding their beloved pets. Utility Model Content

Figure 2 This is a 3D diagram showing the pet feeding device in its separated state, and Figure 3 This is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of its separated state from another angle. Furthermore, Figure 4 This is a 3D diagram of the anti-ant base of a pet feeding device. Figure 5 This is a cross-sectional diagram of the anti-ant base of the pet feeding device.

[0064] First refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, the pet feeding device 100 includes a pet food and power supply unit 200, a pet water fountain 300, and a motion camera 400. (See also...) Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the protective cover 240 of the pet food and power supply unit 200 is removed to expose the charger 610. The pet food and power supply unit 200 includes multiple chargers, such as charger 610, charger 650, charger 660, charger 670, and / or charger 680. However, this invention is not limited to these. The chargers can be placed in any location within the pet food and power supply unit 200 as needed to accommodate the pet water fountain 300 and the motion camera 400, all without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention. Preferably, the camera 410 is mounted on the motion camera 400 for image capture.

[0065] In some embodiments, chargers 610, 670, and 680 may be positioned at the same horizontal height to mount multiple pet water fountains 300 and / or motion cameras 400, or the pet water fountains 300 and / or motion cameras 400 may be mounted in different locations as needed.

[0066] In addition, the pet water fountain 300 includes a power receiver 620 for electrically connecting to one of the chargers to provide the power required by the pet water fountain 300.

Furthermore, the charger on the pet food and power supply unit 200 can provide the power required by the motion camera 400, and the relative positions of the motion camera 400 and the pet food and power supply unit 200 can be adjusted as needed. Therefore, the relative positions of the motion camera 400 and the pet water fountain 300 can be exchanged as needed.

[0068] Therefore, the pet feeding device 100 can be used in combination with the user's home decoration and design needs, or according to the number of pets and other considerations, by selecting the required number of pet food and power supply units 200, pet water fountains 300 and action cameras 400.

[0069] In some embodiments, the charger and power receiver may be wireless charging devices, spring-loaded charging devices, contact charging devices and / or wired charging devices, all of which are within the spirit and scope of protection of this invention.

[0070] In some embodiments, the pet feeding device 100 may further include a separate charging base 500. The separate charging base 500 can be positioned anywhere outside the pet food and power supply unit 200, as needed, to provide power to the action camera 400. The separate charging base 500 also allows the action camera 400 to be conveniently positioned where the user requires it to capture images, observe the operation of the pet feeding device 100, and monitor the pet's eating and drinking habits.

[0071] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the charger 610 includes a power supply unit 612 and a plurality of latches 614, which are arranged around the power supply unit 612.

[0072] In some embodiments, the stand-alone charging dock 500 includes a charger 630, which includes a power supply unit 632. However, preferably, the charger 630 of the stand-alone charging dock 500 is not provided with a latch to facilitate the movement of the motion camera 400 into and out of the stand-alone charging dock 500.

[0073] In addition, the power receiver 620 of the pet water fountain 300 includes a power receiving unit 622 and a plurality of latch holes 624. The latch holes 624 are arranged around the power receiving unit 622, and the latch holes 624 can be used to connect the latches 614.

[0075] Therefore, the pet water fountain 300 and the action camera 400 can be selectively mounted on any charger of the pet food and power supply unit 200, and the pet water fountain 300 and the action camera 400 can be secured to the pet food and power supply unit 200 by using the snap hole 644 to engage the snap claw 614.

[0076] The power supply unit 612, power receiving unit 622, power supply unit 632 and power receiving unit 642 can be powered wirelessly, by contact, by connector or by spring, and none of them depart from the spirit and protection scope of this invention.

[0077] In some embodiments, the pet food and power supply 200 includes a food bowl 210 and a food dispenser 220. The food dispenser 220 is connected to the food bowl 210 to provide pet food to the food bowl 210 at regular intervals and in appropriate quantities as needed for the pet to eat.

[0078] In some embodiments, the pet food and power supply 200 further includes an anti-ant base 230 installed below the food bowl 210 and the food dispenser 220 to prevent ants from entering the food bowl 210 and the food dispenser 220 from below.

[0079] In some embodiments, the pet water fountain 300 includes a water bowl 310 and a water dispenser 320. The water dispenser 320 is connected to the water bowl 310 to provide the pet with water at regular intervals and in measured amounts as needed. The anti-ant base 230 can also be located below the pet water fountain 300, without departing from the spirit and protection scope of this invention.

[0080] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the anti-ant base 230 includes multiple anti-ant feet 232 disposed below it. Each anti-ant foot 232 includes multiple anti-ant rings and an adjustable support foot 710. The anti-ant rings include, for example, a first anti-ant ring 720, a second anti-ant ring 730, a third anti-ant ring 740, and / or a fourth anti-ant ring 750. The adjustable support foot 710 is installed in the middle of the first anti-ant ring 720 and is used to adjust the level and height of the pet food and power supply 200 and the pet water fountain 300.

[0081] In summary, the pet feeding device disclosed in this invention can effectively adjust the quantity and relative positions of the pet food and power supply unit, pet water dispenser, and moving camera according to the usage environment and the number of pets. Furthermore, the pet feeding device disclosed in this invention utilizes an anti-ant base to effectively prevent food contamination by ants and other insects. Moreover, the pet food and power supply unit, pet water dispenser, and moving camera can all be powered and used independently, without departing from the spirit and protection scope of this invention.
