Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be described in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other implementation methods obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0029] See Figures 1-8 As shown, the present invention provides a water bowl structure and a pet water dispenser including the water bowl structure, comprising a drive assembly, a drive connection assembly 10 and a water bowl 4; the drive assembly drives the drive connection assembly 10, thereby causing the water bowl 4 to rotate in the axial direction;

[0030] The drive connection assembly 10 is provided with a magnetic connector 1004, and the drinking basin 4 is provided with a magnetic connector 1008, which cooperates with the magnetic connector 1004. The drive connection assembly 10 also includes a connecting shaft 1001, a flow guide groove 1003, a magnetic connector 1004, a sealing connecting ring 1006, and a flow guide cover 1007; one end of the connecting shaft 1001 is provided with a connecting part, and the output end of the drive assembly cooperates with the connecting part; the flow guide groove 1003 and the flow guide cover 1007 are snapped together by a sealing strip to form a hollow flow guide shaft, which is installed on the other end of the connecting shaft 1001; the magnetic connector 1004 is provided on the connecting shaft 1001; the connecting shaft 1001 is provided with a guide post 10011, and the magnetic connector 1004 is provided with a guide groove, which cooperates with the guide post 10011. When installation is required, the magnetic connector 1004 and magnetic connector 1008 are connected by the attraction of magnets, which enables convenient and quick installation. This also solves the problem of poor contact caused by pets playing with the plug and socket in existing technologies. The driving component is a motor 5, but it can also be other equivalent driving components with the same function. The magnetic connector 1008 and magnetic connector 1004 are commonly used technologies and will not be described in detail in this application.

[0031] In this embodiment, the connecting shaft 1001 is provided with a guide post 10011, and the magnetic connector 1004 is provided with a guide groove. The guide post 10011 and the guide groove cooperate with each other. The magnetic connector 1004 can move along the length direction of the guide post 10011, which can reserve a larger installation space margin for the entire structure and make installation more convenient.

[0032] Preferably, a limiting component 8 is also included. The flow guide cover 1007 is provided with a limiting groove 1002. The limiting component 8 is installed in the main unit housing 2. Moving the limiting component 8 downwards allows it to be installed within the limiting groove 1002. The limiting component 8 includes a limiting member 801 and an operating part. Operating the operating part allows the limiting member 801 to extend into or retract from the limiting groove 1002. After other components are installed, the drinking basin 4 is installed. Once the drinking basin 4 is installed, manually pressing the operating part downwards causes the limiting member 801 to extend into the limiting groove 1002. When it is necessary to remove the drinking basin 4, pushing the operating part upwards causes the limiting member 801 to extend out of the limiting groove 1002.

[0033] In this embodiment, the limiting groove 1002 is an arc groove. In addition, when water needs to be poured, the drinking basin 4 is in a horizontal state. When water needs to be poured, the driving component drives the drinking basin 4 to rotate through the driving connection component 10 until the limit position of the limiting groove 1002 of the guide cover 1007 contacts the limiting member 801, and the driving component stops moving. After the pouring is finished, the driving component moves in the opposite direction, driving the drinking basin 4 to move in the opposite direction to a horizontal state. The limiting member 801 and the arc groove are used to fix the water basin 4 and limit the turning angle at the same time. The structure is simple, compact and reasonable.

[0034] In this embodiment, a water tank 1 and a main unit housing 2 are also included. The water tank 1 is detachably installed above the main unit housing 2. The drive assembly is installed inside the main unit housing 2. Water from the water tank 1 flows sequentially through the solenoid valve 6, the water inlet pipe 7, and the inlet pipe 1005 of the drive connection assembly 10 into the drinking basin 4 via the central hole of the drive connection assembly 10. The drive assembly is connected to the drinking basin 4 via the drive connection assembly 10. The water inlet pipe 7 and the inlet pipe 1005 are connected by a flexible hose, the length of which is sufficiently long. A sealing connection ring 1006 is provided at the connection between the inlet pipe 1005 and the connecting shaft 1001. By utilizing the fact that the water tank 1 is located above the main unit housing 2, the water can be controlled by gravity through the solenoid valve 6, reducing the noise generated by the water pump. The structure is also reasonably laid out and easy to operate.

[0035] In this embodiment, a sewage tank 1 component is also included. The sewage tank 1 component is detachably installed on one side of the main unit box 2, and the sewage tank 1 component is located below the drinking basin 4.

[0036] In this embodiment, an electronic control component is also included, comprising a heating element, a main control board, and a temperature and liquid level integrated sensor 9. The drive component, solenoid valve 6, heating element, and temperature and liquid level integrated sensor 9 are all electrically connected to the main control board. The drinking basin 4 is in a first position when it is horizontal. The drinking basin 4 is in a second position when it is empty. The second position is the limit position of the limiting component 8 when it reaches the arc groove. The temperature and liquid level integrated sensor 9 is disposed on the drinking basin 4 and extends out of the inner wall of the drinking basin 4. The heating element is disposed on the drinking basin 4. The water tank 1 is detachably installed above the main unit 2. Based on the water pressure, the water can flow into the drinking bowl 4 through the pressure difference and the closing of the solenoid valve 6. Furthermore, this invention uses a temperature and level integrated sensor 9 to sense temperature and water level. When the temperature is low, the temperature and level integrated sensor 9 senses the temperature and transmits the signal to the main control board. The main control board controls the heating element to heat until the set temperature is reached. Therefore, this invention helps to ensure that the water temperature is within a stable range, which is beneficial to the pet's healthy drinking water. In addition, the temperature and level integrated sensor 9 can also detect the water level in the drinking bowl 4. When the water level in the drinking bowl 4 is low, water can be added at regular intervals, demonstrating a high degree of intelligence.

[0037] In this embodiment, the water tank 1 includes a top cover 101 and a tank body 102, wherein the top cover 101 is detachably installed on the tank body 102.

[0038] In this embodiment, the main unit chassis 2 includes a first half-shell 201, a second half-shell 202, and a battery casing 203; the first half-shell 201 and the second half-shell 202 are fastened together by connecting buckles 204; the battery casing 203 is disposed at the bottom of the main unit chassis 2; the battery casing 203 includes a battery casing 203 bottom and a battery casing 203 cover; the battery casing 203 bottom is detachably mounted on the battery casing 203 cover and forms a battery casing 203 cavity; the battery is disposed in the battery casing 203 cavity; and the battery supplies power to the main control board.

[0039] In this embodiment, the sewage tank 1 assembly includes a sewage tank 1 shell and a filter screen 302; the filter screen 302 is detachably installed on the sewage tank 1 shell, and by setting the filter screen 302 on the sewage tank 1 shell, the sewage can be coarsely filtered first, resulting in better performance.

[0040] The beneficial effects are as follows: 1. This utility model, through the cooperation of the magnetic connecting seat 1004 on the drive connecting assembly 10 and the magnetic connecting head 1008 on the drinking basin 4, can ensure the stability of the contact between the connecting seat on the drive connecting assembly 10 and the drinking basin 4. 2. In addition, the limiting component 8 on the main unit 2, which cooperates with the limiting groove 1002 on the guide cover 1007, can not only ensure that the drinking basin 4 is securely installed on the main unit 2, but also, through the cooperation of the arc groove of the guide cover 1007 and the limiting component 8, can achieve a more compact and reasonable limit structure for horizontal and tilting. 3. The connecting shaft 1001 is provided with a guide post 10011, and the magnetic connecting seat 1008... 004 is provided with a guide groove, and the guide post 10011 cooperates with the guide groove to facilitate the installation of the limiting component 8 in the limiting groove 1002, leaving a larger installation space margin. 4. This utility model can sense temperature and water level through the integrated temperature and liquid level sensor 9. When the temperature is low, the integrated temperature and liquid level sensor 9 senses the temperature and transmits the signal to the main control board.
