[0002] As people's living standards improve, more and more people are keeping pets, which play an important role in people's lives. However, due to the fast pace of modern life, pet owners are often unable to feed their pets on time due to busy work schedules, business trips, and other reasons. This not only affects the health of the pets but also causes concern for the pet owners.

[0003] The utility model with announcement number CN220916150U is an automatic pet feeder, including a feed container and a main unit housing that fit together. A slot is provided at the upper end of the notch, and a camera module is installed in the slot. A voice module is located on one side of the camera module. A recessed battery box is located at the bottom of the lower housing, and a control circuit board mounting plate is located on the upper end of the battery box for mounting the control circuit board. The control circuit board is connected to an external power source via wires. The camera module, voice module, and battery in the battery box are all electrically connected to the control circuit board. This utility model, by setting a timing module, can preset the feeding time. The control circuit board controls the operation of the feeding mechanism, and it can be remotely controlled via a mobile app, thus achieving automatic feeding.
