Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet supplies, and more specifically, to a pet water mat. Background Technology
[0002] As people's living standards continue to improve, more and more people are keeping pets. For some pets, the cold winter and hot summer, and excessively high or low temperatures can have a negative impact on their health, and may even cause them to get sick. When pets get sick, it causes trouble for their owners. Current technology usually uses heated and cooled pet mats to meet the needs of pets.
[0003] Existing heated and cooled pet mats use a semiconductor cooler / heater installed on the outside of the water heater to heat or cool the water in the water heater to meet the pet's needs. However, during the heating process, because the semiconductor cooler / heater operates on two sides, the cool air generated on the cooling side of the semiconductor cooler / heater affects the heating effect on the heating side when the water heater is heated. This slows down the heating efficiency of the water inside the mat and increases energy consumption. Utility Model Content

[0033] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0034] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0035] The following reference Figures 1 to 6 Description of a pet water mat 1 according to some embodiments of the present invention.
[0036] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a pet water mat 1, characterized in that it includes a water mat 1, a first water tank 2, an aluminum profile container 3, a water pump 4, a control circuit board 5, a first water pipe 6, a second water pipe 7, a third water pipe 8, a cooling module 9, and a heating module 10.
[0037] Specifically, a first water pipe 6 is disposed inside the water pad 1, and its two ends are connected to the first water tank 2 and the aluminum profile container 3, respectively; a second water pipe 7 is connected to the first water tank 2 and the water pump 4, respectively; a third water pipe 8 is connected to the water pump 4 and the aluminum profile container 3, respectively; a refrigeration module 9 is connected to one side of the aluminum profile container 3, and the refrigeration module 9 adopts a semiconductor refrigerator; a heating module 10 is connected to one side of the aluminum profile container 3, and the heating module 10 adopts a PTC heater.
[0038] When the weather is hot, the user manually turns off the PTC heater and turns on the semiconductor cooler. The first water tank 2 is filled with water. When the entire device starts working, the power is turned on, and the control circuit board 5 sends a control signal. The semiconductor cooler begins to cool the aluminum profile container 3. During this process, the water pump 4 starts working, causing the water in the first water tank 2 to pass sequentially through the second water pipe 7, the water pump 4, the third water pipe 8, the aluminum profile container 3, and the first water pipe 6. Finally, the water flows back into the first water tank 2. Thus, during the water circulation process, the semiconductor cooler can cool the aluminum profile container 3, and the aluminum profile container 3 can cool the water passing through it. The cooling process lowers the water temperature during circulation. A temperature sensor is installed inside the aluminum profile container 3. When the temperature sensor detects that the water inside the aluminum profile container 3 has reached the specified temperature, the control circuit board 5 sends a control command to the semiconductor cooler, causing the semiconductor cooler to stop working. This keeps the water inside the first water pipe 6 at a low temperature. The first water pipe 6 is located inside the water pad 1, so when the pet rests on the water pad 1, it can be more comfortable in the hot environment. At the same time, when the semiconductor cooler is working, the PTC heater does not work, so the PTC heater will not affect the semiconductor cooler, improving cooling efficiency and reducing energy consumption.
[0039] When the weather is cold, the user manually turns off the semiconductor cooler and turns on the PTC heater. The first water tank 2 is filled with water. The subsequent working principle is the same as the cooling process, so it will not be described in detail here. In the PTC heater working chamber, the semiconductor heater does not work, so the semiconductor heater will not affect the PTC heater, which improves the heating efficiency and reduces energy consumption.
[0040] In addition, the inner diameter of the first water tank 2 and the aluminum profile container 3 is larger than the inner diameter of the first water pipe 6, the second water pipe 7 and the third water pipe 8, which makes the aluminum profile container 3 have a larger cavity, thus playing a certain water storage function. In the water circulation process, both the aluminum profile container 3 and the first water tank 2 can play a water storage role, thereby reducing the number of times the user needs to add water.
[0041] like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, it further includes;
[0042] Two first connectors 11 are connected through and fixedly attached to the first water tank 2. The first connector 11 has a first groove 15 on the side near the inside of the first water tank 2.
[0043] Two second connectors 12 are respectively fixedly connected to the two first connectors 11 on the side away from the first groove 15. The second connectors 12 are provided with a first through hole 17 communicating with the first groove 15. The two second connectors 12 are respectively connected to the first water pipe 6 and the second water pipe 7.
[0044] Two third connectors 13 are connected through and fixed to the aluminum profile container 3. A second groove 16 is provided on the side of the third connector 13 near the inside of the aluminum profile container 3.
[0045] Two fourth connectors 14 are respectively fixedly connected to the two third connectors 13 on the side away from the second groove 16. Each fourth connector 14 has a second through hole 18 communicating with the second groove 16. The two fourth connectors 14 are respectively connected to the first water pipe 6 and the third water pipe 8. By creating the first groove 15 and the second groove 16, the manufacturing materials for the first connector 11 and the third connector 13 can be reduced, thus lowering costs.
[0046] When installing the entire device, insert the two second connectors 12 into one end of the first water pipe 6 and the end of the second water pipe 7 furthest from the water pump 4, respectively. All components—the second connectors 12, the first water pipe 6, and the second water pipe 7—are made of plastic. This ensures that after the second connector 12 is inserted into one end of the first water pipe 6, the outer diameter of the second connector 12 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first water pipe 6. This causes a slight deformation of the first water pipe 6, resulting in an interference fit between the second connector 12 and the first water pipe 6, achieving a sealing effect and preventing water from flowing out. Water leaks from the connection between the first water pipe 6 and the second connector 12; similarly, the second connector 12 is interference-fitted with the second water pipe 7 to prevent water from leaking out from the connection between the second connector 12 and the second water pipe 7; similarly, the fourth connector 14 is interference-fitted with the end of the third water pipe 8 away from the water pump 4 to prevent water from flowing out from the connection between the fourth connector 14 and the third water pipe 8; similarly, the end of the first water pipe 6 away from the first water tank 2 is interference-fitted with the fourth connector 14 to prevent water from leaking out from the connection between the first water pipe 6 and the fourth connector 14.
[0047] Furthermore, with the above installation method, when the first water tank 2 needs to be disassembled for cleaning, it is only necessary to disconnect the first water pipe 6 and the second water pipe 7 from the second connector 12, which is simple to operate.
[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, it further includes:
[0049] The second water tank 21 is detachably installed above the first water tank 2;
[0050] The fourth water pipe 19 is connected at both ends to the upper end of the first water tank 2 and the lower end of the second water tank 21 respectively;
[0051] One-way valve 20 is fixedly connected to the fourth water pipe 19.
[0052] Furthermore, during the water circulation process, the amount of water circulating decreases continuously, eventually filling the second water tank 21. Under the influence of gravity, the water in the second water tank 21 continuously flows through the fourth water pipe 19 into the first water tank 2, constantly replenishing the first water tank 2 and ensuring the normal operation of the entire device. By installing a one-way valve 20 on the fourth water pipe 19, water in the first water tank 2 can be prevented from flowing into the second water tank 21. This allows the heating or cooling module to heat or cool the circulating water without needing to heat or cool the water in the second water tank 21, improving the cooling or heating efficiency of the water during circulation and significantly reducing energy consumption.
[0053] In addition, by covering the outside of the first water pipe 6, the second water pipe 7 and the third water pipe 8 with thermal insulation cotton, the heat exchange between the water in the first water pipe 6, the second water pipe 7 and the third water pipe 8 and the external environment can be reduced, thereby further reducing energy consumption.
[0054] A water level sensor is installed inside the second water tank 21. During the heating process, water will evaporate, and the water level in the second water tank 21 will gradually decrease. Therefore, when the water in the second water tank 21 reaches a certain level, the data detected by the water level sensor is transmitted to the control circuit board 5. A buzzer is connected to the control circuit board 5, and the control circuit board 5 controls the buzzer to sound to remind the user to add water in time.
[0055] like Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, it further includes:
[0056] A jog switch 22 is located inside the water pad 1 and is connected to the control circuit board 5.
[0057] When the pet rests on the water mat 1, the jog switch 22 is turned on under pressure, which in turn sends a control command to the control circuit board 5 to control the semiconductor cooler or PTC heater to work. When the pet leaves the water mat 1, the jog switch 22 is no longer under pressure and turns off, which in turn sends a command to the control circuit board 5 to control the semiconductor heater or PTC heater to stop working, thus avoiding the waste of energy caused by the continuous operation of the semiconductor cooler or PTC heater.
[0058] It should be noted that the semiconductor heater, PTC heater, water level sensor, temperature sensor, and jog switch 22 mentioned in this application are all common existing technologies, and their specific models and operating principles will not be elaborated here.
[0059] This utility model has the following advantages:
[0060] 1. By separating the heating module 10 and the cooling module 9 to work independently, the mutual interference between the heating module 10 and the cooling module 9 can be avoided, thereby improving heating or cooling efficiency and reducing energy consumption.
[0061] 2. By detachably installing the first water tank 2 and the aluminum profile container 3 onto the entire device, it is easier to clean the first water tank 2 and the aluminum profile container 3, thereby reducing scale buildup that could affect the heating or cooling effect.
[0062] 3. By setting up a fourth water pipe 19 and a one-way valve 20, the second water tank 21 can continuously add water to the first water tank 2. Only the circulating water needs to be heated or cooled, which improves the heating or cooling efficiency and reduces energy consumption.
[0063] 4. By setting a momentary switch 22 inside the water pad 1, the electric switch can be turned on when the pet is on the water pad 1, and then the aluminum profile container 3 will be heated or cooled. When the pet leaves the water pad 1, the heating of the aluminum profile container 3 will stop, which can reduce energy consumption.
