Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automation control technology, and in particular relates to a dog food dispensing device. Background Technology

[0002] According to the published patent CN219330367U, a dog food dispensing device includes a horizontal frame with vertical frames passing through its two ends along its length. The vertical frames are perpendicular to the horizontal frame. A feeding motor is started, driving one feeding screw to rotate via a coupling. This, in turn, drives multiple feeding screws to rotate synchronously via a drive sprocket and chain. During rotation, the feeding screws dispense dog food from the feeding bin through a feeding pipe into the dog food tray in the dog cage. This solves the problem of cumbersome and labor-intensive manual feeding of dogs in large-scale breeding, where feeding is done individually into each dog food tray due to the large number of dogs. It allows for simultaneous automatic dispensing of multiple dog food trays, with adjustable dispensing height, improving the convenience of the feeding process. However, it still has the following shortcomings:

[0003] The aforementioned equipment, once completed, can simultaneously dispense dog food. However, due to the irregular shape and large size differences of the dog food pellets, they may squeeze and jam against each other during the screw feeding process, leading to poor feeding or even blockage. Blockage will prevent the dog food from being dispensed on time and in the correct amount, and the pet may not receive enough food at normal feeding times. In the long run, this will affect the pet's nutritional intake, thereby affecting its physical health and growth. Therefore, we propose a dog food dispensing device. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a dog food dispensing device. By combining the dispensing mechanism and the water dispensing mechanism, this invention solves the problem that while the aforementioned devices can simultaneously dispense dog food, the irregular shape and large size of the dog food pellets can cause them to squeeze and jam during the screw's pushing process, leading to poor feeding or even blockage. This blockage can prevent the dog food from being dispensed on time and in the correct amount, and pets may not receive enough food at their normal feeding times. Over time, this can affect the pet's nutritional intake, thereby impacting their health and growth.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model is a dog food dispensing device, including a base plate, a fixing frame fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the base plate, a plurality of grooves opened inside the fixing frame, a plurality of dispensing pipes fixedly connected to the bottom inner wall of the base plate, and a dispensing mechanism provided on the top outer wall of the base plate.

[0007] The delivery mechanism includes a connecting frame, the bottom outer wall of which is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the fixing frame. A motor fixing plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting frame, and a first motor is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the motor fixing plate. A lead screw is fixedly connected to the bottom output end of the first motor via a coupling. Several limiting blocks are rotatably connected to the outer wall of the lead screw. The outer walls of the limiting blocks are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting frame. A fixing plate is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw. Several sliding grooves are provided on the inner wall of the connecting frame. The inner wall of the sliding groove on the left side is slidably connected to the outer wall of the fixing plate. The outer wall of the fixing plate is fixed to the sliding plate.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer wall of the slide plate is slidably connected to the inner walls of several slide grooves, several fixing brackets are fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the connecting frame, and storage tanks are fixedly connected to the inner walls of several fixing brackets. Several discharge pipes are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide plate, and cover plates are hinged to the inner walls of several discharge pipes. The bottom outer walls of several cover plates are in contact with the top outer wall of the connecting frame. A controller is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the connecting frame, and a water discharge mechanism is provided on the top outer wall of the base plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the water discharge mechanism includes a discharge box, the bottom outer wall of which is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the base plate, a water storage tank is fixedly connected to the top outer wall of the base plate, a water tank is fixedly connected to the top inner wall of the fixing frame, and a water supply pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom inner wall of the water tank.

[0010] Furthermore, a sealing valve is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the water supply pipe, and a large gear is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sealing valve.

[0011] Furthermore, a pulley is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the lead screw, and a belt is driven to the outer wall of the pulley.

[0012] Furthermore, a second pulley is connected to the outer wall of the belt, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second pulley.

[0013] Furthermore, a positioning plate is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft, and the top outer wall of the positioning plate is fixedly connected to the bottom outer wall of the water tank.

[0014] Furthermore, a small gear is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the end of the rotating shaft away from the second pulley, and the outer wall of the small gear meshes with the outer wall of the sealing valve.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This utility model features a feeding pipe. When the feeding pipe is completely separated from the storage tank, the baffle on the feeding pipe gradually seals the storage tank, preventing the dog food in the storage tank from spilling. Then, the feeding pipe moves directly above the groove, at which point the cover plate is no longer restricted and rotates downwards. Subsequently, the cover plate separates from the feeding pipe, and the dog food that falls from the storage tank into the feeding pipe falls from the groove into the dispensing pipe, and then into the dispensing box. This achieves the effect of automatic dog food dispensing, avoiding the situation of overfeeding or underfeeding that may occur with manual feeding, helping to maintain the dog's healthy weight and prevent problems such as obesity or malnutrition.

[0017] 2. This utility model incorporates a rotating shaft. When the shaft starts to rotate, it drives a small gear to rotate, which in turn drives a large gear to rotate. When the large gear starts to rotate, it drives a sealing valve to rotate. When the sealing valve starts to rotate, it stops sealing the water supply pipe, allowing water in the water tank to fall into the storage tank through the water supply pipe. This achieves the effect of simultaneously adding water when dispensing dog food, greatly saving time and effort and making it easier for owners to take care of their dogs' dietary needs.

[0018] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

Subsequently, the cover plate 212 separates from the feeding pipe 211, and the dog food that falls from the storage tank 210 into the feeding pipe 211 is released. It will fall from the groove 102 into the feeding pipe 103, and then into the discharge box 311. When the lead screw 204 starts to rotate, it will drive the pulley 301 to rotate. When the pulley 301 starts to rotate, it will drive the second pulley 303 to rotate through the belt 302. When the second pulley 303 starts to rotate, it will drive the rotating shaft 304 to rotate. When the rotating shaft 304 starts to rotate, it will drive the small gear 306 to rotate. At this time, the small gear 306 will drive the large gear 308 to rotate. When the large gear 308 starts to rotate... When the sealing valve 307 starts to rotate, it will no longer seal the water supply pipe 310. At this time, the water in the water tank 309 will fall into the water storage tank 313 through the water supply pipe 310. When the dog food has completely fallen into the discharge box 311, press the connecting frame 201 again. At this time, the first motor 203 will drive the lead screw 204 to reverse. At this time, the lead screw 204 will drive the discharge pipe 211 and the sealing valve 307 to reset. At this time, no more dog food and water will be added.
