[0002] Pets need to be fed regularly, but feeding them can be difficult when someone isn't always home. Usually, the pet food is placed in a bowl, and the pet eats from the bowl when it's hungry. A pet feeder is an automated device used to feed pets at regular intervals and in measured amounts. This device helps owners ensure their pets get food on time, especially when the owner is not home or is busy. A pet feeder can ensure that the pet doesn't go hungry because it doesn't get food in time.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0022] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.
[0023] This application discloses a timed pet feeder. (See also...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 A timed pet feeder includes a cover plate 1; both sides of the bottom of the cover plate 1 are provided with slots, and the inner cavity of the slots is fitted with a clip 2. The bottom of the clip 2 is bolted to a food storage bin 3. The bottom right side of the food storage bin 3 is provided with a discharge port 4. The top right side of the food storage bin 3 is bolted to a box body 5. The inner cavity of the box body 5 is provided with a discharge component 6. The bottom of the box body 5 is provided with a through groove.
[0024] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The dispensing assembly 6 includes a motor 61, a connecting shaft 62, a gear 63, a rack plate 64, a baffle 65, a timing module 66, and a controller 67. The motor 61 is bolted to the back of the housing 5. The output shaft of the motor 61 is fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 62. The front of the connecting shaft 62 passes through the housing 5 and is rotatably connected to the front of the inner cavity of the housing 5 through a bearing. The gear 63 is keyed to the surface of the connecting shaft 62. The rack plate 64 meshes with the left side of the gear 63. The bottom of the rack plate 64 has a through groove and is bolted to the baffle 65. The timing module 66 and the controller 67 are installed sequentially from top to bottom on the right side of the housing 5. The motor 61 is electrically connected to the controller 67, and the controller 67 is electrically connected to the timing module 66. It can dispense food at set times. After dispensing, the dispensing port 4 is sealed to prevent the pet food from getting damp, contaminated, or spoiled, and to prevent the pet food from clumping.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4The bottom of the right side of the grain storage bin 3 is bolted to a base plate 7. The right side of the base plate 7 has a groove, and the inner cavity of the groove is fitted with a clamping plate 8. The top of the clamping plate 8 is bolted to a feeding tray 9, which facilitates the installation and removal of the feeding tray 9 and makes it easy to clean the feeding tray 9.
[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The bottom of the inner cavity of the food storage bin 3 is bolted with a guide plate 10, which is a right-angled triangle; this facilitates the rapid flow of pet food out of the food storage bin 3.
[0027] Reference Figure 5 A chute 11 is provided on the right side of the grain storage bin 3. Slider 12 is slidably connected from top to bottom in the inner cavity of the chute 11. The right side of the slider 12 is bolted to the left side of the rack plate 64. The rack plate 64 is limited and assisted in moving, thereby improving the stability of the rack plate 64.
[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 A limit plate is bolted to the top of the rack plate 64, and a sealing gasket 13 is bonded to the left side of the baffle 65. The left side of the sealing gasket 13 fits against the right side of the grain storage silo 3. The sealing gasket 13 improves the sealing performance of the discharge port 4.
[0029] Working principle: When the timer module 66 reaches the set time, it sends a signal to the controller 67. The controller 67 turns on the motor 61, which drives the connecting shaft 62 to rotate. The connecting shaft 62 drives the gear 63 to rotate, which in turn drives the rack plate 64 to move upward. The rack plate 64 drives the baffle 65 to move upward, exposing the discharge port 4. At this time, the pet food in the food storage bin 3 falls into the feeding tray 9. Then the motor 61 reverses, and similarly, drives the baffle 65 to move downward to seal the discharge port 4.
[0030] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. 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 to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
