Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pet-related technology, specifically a water-circulating and filtering lift-up water dispenser. Background Technology

[0002] A pet water fountain is a container for holding drinking water for pet dogs, cats, rabbits, and other animals. Water fountains are needed to feed pets when they are being trained.

[0003] There are many types of pet water fountains available, but they still have some shortcomings in use. For example, most existing pet water fountains do not have water filtration devices, and drinking unclean water can easily make pets sick. Although a few pet water fountains are equipped with water filtration devices, the water filtration device is integrated into the design, making the pet water fountain complex and cumbersome to add water. To overcome these shortcomings, we can refer to the pet water fountain disclosed in the prior art (CN201821194685.8). In this water fountain, the filter tray is located below the drinking tray and exactly below the water outlet. The drinking tray and the filter tray form a cavity structure, and the filter element is located in the cavity formed by the drinking tray and the filter tray. The filter tray is provided with a water outlet. This integrated design makes water filtration more efficient and makes it easier to change the water each time.

[0004] Although existing technology can solve the above problems, there are still some shortcomings in its use. This operation only filters the water source during the water change process, but it can also cause other problems. Since the amount of water a pet drinks each time is uncertain, it is possible that only part of the water source is drunk, but the remaining water source may be touched by other flying insects, thus failing to effectively guarantee the cleanliness of the water source.

[0005] Furthermore, existing pet water fountains are not sufficiently adaptable to different types of pets. Different types of pets have different sizes, and the appropriate height for the corresponding pet water fountain varies. Therefore, different pets often need to adjust their body posture to adapt to the height of the pet water fountain, which may cause discomfort to the pet's cervical spine or joints. In particular, some pets with spinal or joint problems may experience pain due to adjusting their body posture while drinking water. Summary of the Invention

[0053] Example 1

[0054] To address the issue that current pet water fountains on the market have problems, such as pets drinking an unpredictable amount of water each time, resulting in some pets only drinking a portion of the water while the remaining water may come into contact with other flying insects, thus failing to effectively guarantee the cleanliness of the water source.

[0055] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 9 It includes a water storage box 1, a water storage tray for feeding water 2, a water outlet box 3, a filter assembly 4, a water inlet cover for easy water intake 5, and a water pump 6.

[0056] The water storage pan 2 is equipped with a handle position 21, and the water storage box 1 is connected to the water storage pan 2 through the handle position 21.

[0057] The water outlet box 3 is located on the side of the water storage box 1 near the water storage tray 2. The water outlet box 3 includes an inlet pipe 33, which is located at the bottom of the water outlet box 3. The inlet pipe 33 is connected to the water pump 6. The pumping end of the water pump 6 is located inside the water storage box 1.

[0058] The filter assembly 4 is located at the end of the water storage box 1 away from the water outlet box 3, and the filter assembly 4 is located between the water storage box 1 and the water storage tray 2.

[0059] The water inlet cap 5 is located on top of the water storage box 1.

[0060] The water outlet box 3 also includes a water outlet box cover 31 and a water outlet box body 32. The water outlet box cover 31 is located at the top of the water outlet box body 32. The water inlet pipe 33 is located at the bottom center of the water outlet box body 32.

The filter element 42 is located between the filter box upper cover 41 and the filter box lower cover 43, and the filter element 42 is fixed between the filter box upper cover 41 and the filter box lower cover 43 by spring buckles. The filter box upper cover 41 has a through-hole drain, which is connected to one end of the water storage tray 2. The height of the drain is higher than the lowest surface of the water storage tray 2. The cavity connected by the water inlet cover 5 is connected to the interior of the water storage box 1. The water storage box 1 is made of ABS material, the water outlet box 3 and the filter assembly 4 are made of transparent ABS material, and the water storage tray 2 is made of 304 stainless steel material.

[0063] Before use, the water storage box 1 and the water storage tray 2 can be separated by the handle 21 to clean the water storage box 1, filter assembly 4, water outlet box 3 and water storage tray 2.

[0064] Reassemble after cleaning;

[0065] Water is filled into the water storage box 1 by filling the water inlet cover 5. At this time, the water pump 6 is started, so that the water source is sucked in through the water pump 6 and the water outlet of the water pump 6 will be discharged through the water outlet box 3.

[0066] At this time, water can be conveniently added to the inside of the water storage pan 2, and after the water reaches a certain amount, the water will flow back through the drain opening at the top of the filter box cover 41.

[0067] In addition, the water source is filtered through the filter element 42. The water source flows through the hole in the lower cover 43 of the filter box and then falls into the water storage box 1. At this time, the water source can undergo water circulation filtration treatment, thereby filtering out dust and impurities. It can filter out dust that has been in contact with the air for a long time and ensure the water source flow, so as not to become stagnant water and breed bacteria.

[0068] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 3 Appendix Figure 6 - Appendix Figure 9To accommodate pets of different sizes, this application features an adjustable water fountain height via a support mechanism. Users can adjust the water fountain to a suitable height based on the size and type of pet. This allows pets to drink in a natural posture.
