Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] See Figures 1-9 This automatic water-replenishing pet water fountain includes a body and a water bowl 1. The body is equipped with a drive motor 2, which drives a mounting cylinder 4. The mounting cylinder 4 is equipped with a sleeve inlet 36, and the water bowl 1 is equipped with a water bowl inlet 37. The water bowl 1 is mounted on the mounting cylinder 4, and the water bowl inlet 37 corresponds to the sleeve inlet 36. The body is also equipped with a hidden water outlet component that supplies water to the sleeve inlet 36 and the water bowl inlet 37.

[0029] In this embodiment, the water outlet component is concealed within the machine body to avoid the problem of leakage and contamination found in existing water outlet components. This ensures the safety and hygiene of the drinking water dispensed through the water outlet component. Furthermore, the drive motor 2 drives the sleeve 4 to rotate on the machine body. When the sleeve 4 rotates, it simultaneously causes the water bowl 1 to automatically flip and move on the machine body, allowing the water bowl 1 to automatically pour out drinking water. This effectively avoids the drawback of the user having to manually disassemble the water bowl 1 to pour out the liquid, improving the user experience. In addition, the water outlet component can supply water to the inlet 36 of the sleeve and the inlet 37 of the water bowl. This allows the water bowl 1 to automatically pour out the drinking water that has been stored for a long time when it flips, and then replenish it with clean drinking water in a timely manner, effectively ensuring that pets can drink clean, safe, and hygienic drinking water.

[0030] The water outlet assembly includes a water pump 38 and a water outlet 39. The water pump 38 and the water outlet 39 are connected to each other through a water pipe. The water outlet 39 is located above the mounting sleeve 4. When the mounting sleeve 4 and the water bowl 1 rotate, the water outlet 39 corresponds to or is misaligned with the sleeve inlet 36 and the water bowl inlet 37.

[0031] In this embodiment, since the water outlet 39 is located above the sleeve 4, when the sleeve 4 and the water bowl 1 rotate relative to the water outlet 39, and the water outlet 39 corresponds to the sleeve inlet 36 and the water bowl inlet 37, the drinking water flowing out of the water outlet 39 can automatically flow into the sleeve inlet 36 and the water bowl inlet 37 by its own gravity, and finally enter the water bowl 1.

[0032] The machine body is provided with a base 40. A water tank assembly part 41 is provided on one side of the base 40, and a first housing 14 and a second housing 15 are provided on the other side. The first housing 14 and the second housing 15 are fixedly connected by fasteners or buckles, and both are fixedly connected to the base 40 by fasteners or buckles. A water tank 35 is installed on the water tank assembly part 41. The water pump 38 is connected to the water tank 35 by a water pipe. An electronic control board 3 is fixedly installed on the first housing 14 or the second housing 15. The electronic control board 3 is electrically connected to the drive motor 2 and the water pump 38.

[0033] In this embodiment, the water tank 35 can be detached and installed on the water tank assembly part 41 so that the water pump 38 can automatically supply water in the water tank 35 to the water bowl 1 under the control of the electronic control board 3. Moreover, the electronic control board 3 can also control the drive motor 2 to work so as to realize the automatic flipping of the water bowl 1. In addition, the first housing 14, the second housing 15, and the base 40 are fixed to each other by fasteners, which makes the structure simple and the assembly stable.

[0034] An assembly bracket 5 is fixedly installed on the first housing 14 or the second housing 15. The drive motor 2 is fixedly installed on the assembly bracket 5, and its drive end is driven by a transmission component 6. The transmission component 6 is fixedly connected to the assembly sleeve 4. The water pump 38 and the water outlet 39 are fixedly installed on the first housing 14 or the second housing 15.

[0035] In this embodiment, the drive motor 2 is fixed using the assembly bracket 5, which improves the assembly stability of the drive motor 2 and avoids vibration problems during operation. When the drive motor 2 is working, it drives the transmission component 6 to rotate, and the transmission component 6 drives the assembly sleeve 4 to rotate together. When the assembly sleeve 4 rotates, it can cause the water bowl 1 to flip and move. In addition, the electronic control board 3, the assembly bracket 5, the water pump 38, and the water outlet 39 are all fixedly mounted on the second housing 15 with fasteners, which has a simple structure and a stable assembly.

[0036] The transmission component 6 is provided with a motor connection part 7 and a shielding part 29. The mounting sleeve 4 is provided with an axial opening 42. The driving end of the drive motor 2 is driven and connected to the motor connection part 7. The transmission component 6 and the mounting sleeve 4 are fixedly connected by fasteners or buckles. The shielding part 29 shields at least part of the axial opening 42, and a sleeve inlet 36 is formed between the two.

[0037] In this embodiment, the motor connection part 7 is a motor connection hole, and the drive end of the drive motor 2 is positioned and inserted into the motor connection part 7 so that the drive motor 2 can directly apply the driving force to the transmission member 6. In addition, the transmission member 6 is provided with a transmission member fixing hole, and the mounting sleeve 4 is provided with a mounting sleeve fixing hole. The mounting sleeve fixing hole and the transmission member fixing hole correspond to each other, and the two are fixedly engaged by fasteners, so that the transmission member 6 and the mounting sleeve 4 achieve a stable engagement. The blocking part 29 can at least partially block the axial opening 42 and expose the other part of the axial opening 42, thereby forming the sleeve inlet 36. In addition, the engagement between the blocking part 29 and the axial opening 42 can also effectively realize the transmission between the transmission member 6 and the mounting sleeve 4.

[0038] The transmission component 6 is provided with a transmission positioning part 8, and the mounting bracket 5 is provided with a first positioning part 9 and a second positioning part 10. The first positioning part 9 and the second positioning part 10 are mutually spaced and cooperate with each other. When the transmission component 6 rotates, it is positioned on the first positioning part 9 and the second positioning part 10 respectively by the transmission positioning part 8, so as to limit the flipping position of the water bowl 1.

[0039] In this embodiment, the first positioning part 9 and the second positioning part 10 are arranged in a ring at intervals around the drive end of the drive motor 2. When the water bowl 1 is flipped to a horizontal state (i.e., the bowl surface is facing up), the transmission positioning part 8 acts on the first positioning part 9, and the drive motor 2 stops outputting power. When the water bowl 1 is flipped to an inclined state (i.e., the bowl surface is facing down), the transmission positioning part 8 acts on the second positioning part 10, and the drive motor 2 stops outputting power, thereby causing the water bowl 1 to reciprocate in both horizontal and inclined states.

[0040] The water bowl 1 has a mounting protrusion 12 extending from the rear side, and is detached and installed on the mounting sleeve 4 by plugging in the mounting protrusion 12. The water bowl inlet 37 is located on the top of the mounting protrusion 12, and the sleeve inlet 36 is located on the top of the mounting sleeve 4. The mounting sleeve 4 is driven by the drive motor 2 to rotate in the machine body, and when rotating, it also drives the water bowl 1 to flip and move on the machine body. The water bowl inlet 37 and the sleeve inlet 36 always correspond to each other when the mounting sleeve 4 and the water bowl 1 rotate.

[0041] In this embodiment, the side wall of the first housing 14 is also provided with an assembly through hole 16. The assembly sleeve 4 is cylindrical and has a flat part on the bottom surface. The assembly sleeve 4 and the assembly through hole 16 correspond to each other. The assembly protrusion 12 is cylindrical and has a flat part on its inner bottom surface. After the assembly protrusion 12 passes through the assembly through hole 16, it is tightly inserted into the assembly sleeve 4. The assembly protrusion 12 and the assembly sleeve 4 are positioned by the flat part, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of the assembly protrusion 12 deflecting after assembly. It also enables the assembly sleeve 4 to effectively transmit power to the assembly protrusion 12, reducing the problem of slippage between the two during force transmission.

[0042] When the water bowl 1 is flipped to a horizontal position (i.e., the bowl surface is facing up), the water outlet 39 corresponds to the sleeve inlet 36 and the water bowl inlet 37. When the water bowl 1 is flipped to an inclined position (i.e., the bowl surface is facing down), the water outlet 39 is misaligned with the sleeve inlet 36 and the water bowl inlet 37.

[0043] The mounting protrusion 12 is provided with a bowl surface that is higher than that of the water bowl 1, and the water inlet 37 of the water bowl is set in an arc or linear inclination towards the water bowl 1.

[0044] In this embodiment, since the mounting protrusion 12 is provided with a height higher than the surface of the water bowl 1, the water bowl 1 only needs to be rotated at a small angle to pour out the drinking water, which is highly efficient and energy-saving. In addition, the water inlet 37 of the water bowl is arranged in an arc-shaped inclination towards the water bowl 1, so that the drinking water on the water inlet 37 can flow into the water bowl 1 in an arc-shaped inclination, ensuring that the drinking water can effectively flow into the water bowl 1.

[0045] The mounting sleeve 4 is provided with a sleeve hole 19, and a press-and-rebound buckle 11 is mounted through the sleeve hole 19. The mounting protrusion 12 is provided with a buckle 13. The water bowl 1 is mounted in the mounting sleeve 4 through the mounting protrusion 12, and is pressed and engaged or disengaged from the press-and-rebound buckle 11 through the buckle 13.

[0046] In this embodiment, the water bowl 1 can be disassembled and installed on the mounting sleeve 4 and the press-rebound buckle 11 by pressing and disassembling it through the cooperation of the mounting protrusion 12 and the buckle 13. The pressing and disassembly method of the water bowl 1 is simple in structure and easy to operate, allowing users to quickly and conveniently complete the disassembly and assembly of the water bowl 1, thereby improving the user experience. Moreover, after the water bowl 1 is assembled, the mounting sleeve 4 can cover the periphery of the mounting protrusion 12, and the press-rebound buckle 11 can lock the buckle 13, thereby effectively improving the assembly stability of the water bowl 1 and avoiding the problems of displacement and loosening of the water bowl 1 during use. It is highly practical.

[0047] In addition, the pressing action between the rebound buckle 11 and the latch 13 provides a tactile feedback and makes a sound when they are engaged or disengaged, indicating the connection or disconnection status of the water bowl 1 to the main unit. This allows the user to be aware of the water bowl 1's connection or disconnection status, further enhancing the user experience.

[0048] The base 40 is also provided with a base positioning part 43, and a wastewater tank 44 is detached and installed through the base positioning part 43. The wastewater tank 44 is located below the water bowl 1.

[0049] In this embodiment, since the wastewater tank 44 is located below the water bowl 1, the drinking water stored on the water bowl 1 can be poured onto the wastewater tank 44 when the water bowl 1 is turned over. The wastewater tank 44 then collects the poured drinking water to prevent the poured drinking water from flowing out of the machine body at will, thus ensuring environmental hygiene. At the same time, it is also beneficial for users to treat the collected drinking water, making it highly practical.

[0050] The above describes the preferred embodiments of this utility model, illustrating and describing its basic principles, main features, and advantages. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of this utility model as defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
