Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drinking water equipment technology, and in particular to a spill-proof automatic water dispenser mounting base. Background Technology
[0002] An automatic water dispenser is a drinking device that uses mechanical or electronic means to automatically supply water and maintain water quality. It is commonly used in pet ownership (such as cats, dogs, and birds) or laboratory animal husbandry. Its core goal is to solve the problems of traditional water bowls being easily contaminated and requiring frequent water changes, while providing a more hygienic and convenient way to drink water. Components include water tanks, troughs, and mounting bases.
[0003] A search revealed that utility model patent CN222193681U discloses an automatic chick drinker, belonging to the field of automatic drinkers. The automatic chick drinker includes: a water storage cup; a water supply component disposed on one side of the water storage cup; a water bladder fixed to the bottom of the water storage cup; two sets of spray nozzles symmetrically disposed on both sides of the water bladder; and a fixing tube disposed on the water bladder and connected to the water bladder. A one-way valve is installed inside the fixing tube, and the end of the fixing tube furthest from the water bladder is connected to the drain end of the water supply component. Water is slowly squeezed into the water storage cup by the water bladder's own contraction force, effectively preventing the chicks from being startled and ceasing to drink when water is rapidly added to the water storage cup.
[0004] In the aforementioned structure, the water level is determined by a float. However, the float occupies a large space in the water storage cup, which makes it easy for poultry to accidentally touch it when drinking. This causes the float to drop under pressure, resulting in water being mistakenly injected into the water storage cup, causing frequent overflows and leaks. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a spill-proof automatic water dispenser mounting base.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a spill-proof automatic water dispenser fixing base, comprising a fixing component, a water storage component at the bottom of the fixing component, an extension component fixed to the periphery of the fixing component, an installation component fixed to the inner wall of the extension component, a water drinking component slidably connected to one end of the extension component, L-shaped grooves on both sides of the inner wall of the extension component, multiple L-shaped components fixed to one side of the water drinking component, the side of the L-shaped component slidably connected to the inner wall of the L-shaped groove, a water baffle fixed to one end of the L-shaped component, a lifting spring fixed to the bottom of the L-shaped component, a baffle fixed to the end of the extension component near the water drinking component, and water delivery channels corresponding to the installation component, the water storage component, and the baffle, all of which are connected by flexible hoses.
[0007] Preferably, a trapezoidal block is fixed on one side of the drinking device, and multiple trapezoidal grooves are provided at the end of the extension near the drinking device, with the inner wall of the trapezoidal grooves slidably connected to the side of the trapezoidal block.
[0008] Preferably, a protective groove is provided on the inner wall of the L-shaped groove near the end of the drinking device, and the depth of the protective groove is greater than the limit compression length of the lifting spring.
[0009] Preferably, a water delivery end is fixed at the water delivery channel on the side of the shield near the drinking device, and the length of the water delivery end is not less than 0.3 centimeters.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the water delivery end is covered with a rubber layer.
[0011] Preferably, a settling groove is formed at the bottom center of the inner wall of the water conveyance channel of the mounting component.
[0012] Preferably, a rubber strip is glued and fixed to the bottom of the inner wall of the settling tank.
[0013] Preferably, a water-blocking plate is fixed to one end of the L-shaped component near the water-blocking plate, and a horizontal groove is provided on the inner wall of the mounting component corresponding to the water-blocking plate, wherein the width of the water-blocking plate is greater than the width of the water-blocking plate.
[0014] Beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. This utility model realizes that by using the elastic potential energy of the lifting spring, when there is little water in the drinking device, it is gradually lifted upwards, causing the L-shaped part to rise accordingly and the water-blocking plate to move away from the water supply channel. The water in the water storage device flows through the water supply channel and hose and finally flows into the drinking device through the baffle plate. When there is more water, its own weight causes the drinking device to fall and the water-blocking plate to block the water supply channel of the installation part. Thus, automatic water intake and water blocking can be formed without the need for a float ball, preventing water from being injected incorrectly and causing frequent overflow and leakage, thereby improving the anti-leakage effect.
[0016] 2. This utility model achieves stable vertical movement of the drinking device during its ascent and descent through the cooperation between the trapezoidal block and the trapezoidal groove, preventing tipping and further preventing water spillage. At the same time, the large contact area between the two results in greater friction, preventing the drinking device from moving too fast due to the elastic potential energy of the lifting spring, thereby limiting the movement speed of the drinking device and keeping it moving smoothly, thus improving the user experience.
[0017] 3. This utility model achieves the effect of preventing water from flowing into the L-shaped grooves on both sides when passing through the water conveying channel by the cooperation of the water baffle plate and the horizontal groove, and the length of the water baffle plate is greater than the sum of the diameter of the water conveying channel and the depth of the trough, thereby further ensuring the anti-spillage effect and improving the user experience.

[0031] To make the technical means, creative features, and achieved objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model is further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. However, the following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments described in the implementation plan without creative effort are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0032] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Specific Implementation Example 1:
[0034] Reference Figures 1-6A spill-proof automatic water dispenser mounting base includes a fixing component 1, a water storage component 101 at the bottom of the fixing component 1, an extension component 102 fixed to the periphery of the fixing component 1, an mounting component 103 fixed to the inner wall of the extension component 102, a water dispenser component 2 slidably connected to one end of the extension component 102, L-shaped grooves 201 on both sides of the inner wall of the extension component 102, multiple L-shaped components 202 fixed to one side of the water dispenser component 2, the sides of the L-shaped components 202 slidably connected to the inner wall of the L-shaped grooves 201, a water baffle 203 fixed to one end of the L-shaped component 202, a lifting spring 204 fixed to the bottom of the L-shaped component 202, a baffle 205 fixed to the end of the extension component 102 near the water dispenser component 2, water channels 104 corresponding to the mounting component 103, the water storage component 101, and the baffle 205, and the water channels 104 are connected by flexible hoses. The elastic potential energy of the lifting spring 204 causes the drinking device 2 to gradually rise when there is little water in it, causing the L-shaped part 202 to rise accordingly and the water barrier 203 to move away from the water supply channel 104. This allows the water in the water storage device 101 to flow through the water supply channel 104 and the hose, and finally through the baffle 205 into the drinking device 2. When there is a lot of water, its own weight causes the drinking device 2 to fall and the water barrier 203 to block the water supply channel 104 of the mounting part 103. This eliminates the need for a float ball to automatically fill and block water, preventing water from being injected incorrectly and causing frequent overflow and spillage. The friction between the L-shaped groove 201 and the L-shaped part 202 provides frictional force to prevent the drinking device 2 from rising too quickly and causing spillage. At the same time, when poultry or animals press on the drinking device 2 while drinking, it will only cause the water barrier 203 to block the water supply channel 104 of the mounting part 103, preventing water from spilling.
[0035] A trapezoidal block 3 is fixed to one side of the drinking device 2. The extension 102 has multiple trapezoidal grooves 301 at the end near the drinking device 2. The inner wall of the trapezoidal groove 301 is slidably connected to the side of the trapezoidal block 3. Through the cooperation between the trapezoidal block 3 and the trapezoidal groove 301, the drinking device 2 can always maintain stable vertical movement during the rising and falling process, preventing it from tipping over and further preventing water leakage. At the same time, the contact area between the two is large, resulting in greater friction, preventing the drinking device 2 from moving too fast due to the elastic potential energy of the lifting spring 204, thereby limiting the movement speed of the drinking device 2 and keeping it moving smoothly.
[0036] A protective groove 4 is provided on the inner wall of the L-shaped groove 201 near one end of the drinking part 2. The depth of the protective groove 4 is greater than the limit compression length of the lifting spring 204. This prevents the lifting spring 204 from being squeezed beyond its limit compression distance when the drinking part 2 is compressed and descends due to the large weight of the drinking part 2 and water or misalignment. This ensures that the L-shaped part 202 stops descending to the bottom, while the lifting spring 204 is placed in the protective groove 4 to prevent it from exceeding its limit compression distance and to improve its service life.
[0037] A water supply end is fixed to the water supply channel 104 on the side of the shield 205 near the drinking water device 2. The length of the water supply end is not less than 0.3 cm. The shield 205 blocks one side of the drinking water device 2 to prevent water from spilling. At the same time, the water supply end prevents water from flowing out along the surface of the shield 205 and causing water stains to remain.
[0038] The bottom of the water supply end is covered with a rubber layer to prevent the bottom of the drinking water device 2 from directly colliding with the bottom of the water supply end and causing damage. The rubber layer provides cushioning between the two, thereby improving the service life of the water supply end.
[0039] A groove 5 is provided at the bottom center of the inner wall of the water channel 104 of the mounting component 103. The groove 5 further restricts the flow of water to form a seal, preventing water from flowing outward through the gap.
[0040] A rubber strip is glued to the bottom of the inner wall of the settling tank 5. The rubber strip further seals the tank and prevents water leakage.
[0041] A water-blocking plate 6 is fixed to one end of the L-shaped component 202 near the water-blocking plate 203. A transverse groove 601 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting component 103 corresponding to the water-blocking plate 6. The width of the water-blocking plate 6 is greater than the width of the water-blocking plate 203. Through the cooperation of the water-blocking plate 6 and the transverse groove 601, and the length of the water-blocking plate 6 is greater than the sum of the diameter of the water conveying channel 104 and the depth of the settling trough 5, water is prevented from flowing into the L-shaped grooves 201 on both sides when passing through the water conveying channel 104, thus preventing leakage and further ensuring the anti-leakage effect. Specific Implementation Example 2:
[0043] Reference Figures 1-6 The staff used the structure disclosed in this utility model in chicken house No. 3 of an egg farm in Dezhou, Shandong. The fixing part 1 (304 stainless steel) was fixed to the chicken cage support 15cm off the ground by expansion bolts. In the initial state, when the water volume of the drinking part 2 (PP material, capacity 300ml) dropped to 50ml, the lifting spring 204 (60Si2MnA wire diameter 0.8mm) pushed the L-shaped part 202 up 8mm along the L-shaped groove 201 of the extension part 102. The trapezoidal block 3 slid in the trapezoidal groove 301 (friction coefficient μ=0.12) and guided it, causing the water baffle 203 to detach from the water supply channel 104 of the mounting part 103. The water in the water storage part 101 (capacity 5L) was injected into the drinking part 2 through the water supply end of the baffle 205 (length 3.5cm, covered with a 2mm food-grade rubber layer) via a silicone hose. When the water volume reaches 280ml, the drinking water unit 2 presses down on the L-shaped part 202 due to its own weight, and the water-blocking plate 203 is inserted into the nitrile rubber strip on the inner wall of the settling groove 5 (6mm deep) to form a seal. The water-blocking plate 6 (40mm wide) is simultaneously embedded in the transverse groove 601 to block side leakage.
[0044] In actual testing, when laying hens peck at the water dispenser 2, generating a downward pressure of 3N, the lifting spring 204 retracts into the protective groove 4 (25mm deep) to prevent excessive deformation, with a single water replenishment error of ±10ml. After 60 days of continuous operation (an average of 150 lifting and lowering cycles per day), the wear on the rubber strip of the settling trough 5 was 0.08mm, and the humidity of the chicken house floor remained below 65% (compared to 85% around traditional float-type waterers).
[0045] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the water volume in the drinking device 2 decreases, its weight is reduced, and the lifting spring 204 releases elastic potential energy to push the L-shaped part 202 to rise vertically along the L-shaped groove 201 of the extension part 102, thereby moving the drinking device 2 upward. At this time, the water baffle 203 fixed to the L-shaped part 202 is separated from the water supply channel 104 of the mounting part 103, and the water in the water storage part 101 flows through the water supply channel 104 and the connecting hose in sequence, and is injected into the drinking device 2 through the water supply end of the baffle 205.
[0046] When the water volume increases to the set threshold, the weight of the drinking device 2 increases, overcoming the downward pressure of the lifting spring 204 and forcing the L-shaped part 202 to descend along the L-shaped groove 201. The water-blocking plate 203 moves down simultaneously and tightly seals the water supply channel 104 of the mounting part 103, cutting off the water supply. During this process, the trapezoidal block 3 on the side of the drinking device 2 slides into the trapezoidal groove 301 of the extension part 102, limiting the movement trajectory to prevent tilting and increasing frictional damping to avoid excessive lifting speed. The water-blocking plate 6 at the end of the L-shaped part 202 is embedded in the transverse groove 601 of the mounting part 103, forming a double seal with the rubber strip in the bottom groove 5 of the water-blocking plate 203, blocking water from flowing into the L-shaped groove 201 or leaking into the water channel. If the drinking device 2 is subjected to excessive downward pressure by external forces such as animal pressing, the protective groove 4 accommodates the lifting spring 204 to prevent over-compression. The rubber layer at the water supply end buffers the collision with the drinking device 2, ensuring long-term stable operation.
