Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to a pet water fountain, and more particularly to a pet water fountain with a pair of water bowls. Background Technology

[0002] Current pet water fountains typically only have one water bowl, making them unsuitable for situations where multiple pets are kept together. When multiple pets are together, they often fight over the water bowl, causing unnecessary injury to both the pets and the water fountain. Furthermore, because the water bowl is constantly filled with water, the current single-bowl design leads to an eccentric rotating shaft, resulting in uneven stress on one side. This is detrimental to the machine's stability and may cause uneven bending, deformation, and wear of the rotating components, while also affecting its aesthetics.

[0003] For example, CN222888430U discloses a constant-temperature pet water fountain with clean and dirty water separation, including a water stand and clean water tanks and dirty water tanks respectively located on the front and back sides of the water stand, with the dirty water tank separated from the base. The water stand has a horizontally tiltable water bowl, and the water stand has a tilting space for tilting the water bowl. The water stand also has a tilting assembly connected to the water bowl, and the bottom of the clean water tank has a pumping assembly for pumping water. The motor and monitoring unit are both inserted into the outer wall of the mounting component, and each gear is connected to the inner wall of the mounting component via a shaft. However, this patent only has one eccentrically positioned water bowl, which is unsuitable for multiple pets to use together and is also aesthetically unappealing.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need in the existing technology for a more aesthetically pleasing pet water fountain that can simultaneously provide drinking water for multiple pets. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a pet water fountain with paired water bowls. By setting the water bowls in pairs, the water fountain can not only meet the needs of more pets drinking water at the same time, but also set the water bowls on the left and right sides respectively, reducing the defects caused by machine instability or unilateral force due to eccentric setting.

[0006] This application relates to a pet water fountain with paired drinking bowls, including a main structure and a wastewater tank. The main structure is equipped with a motor, which is connected to a rotating shaft via a flipping mechanism. Drinking bowls are respectively provided at both ends of the rotating shaft, and the wastewater tank is located below the drinking bowls.

[0007] The main structure may include a mounting section, on which the motor can be fixedly mounted. A first gear may be connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the first gear is connected to a second gear via a transmission component. The second gear is connected to the rotating shaft. A clean water tank and a water pump may also be included. The water pump is connected to the clean water tank via a suction pipe, and the other end of the suction pipe is connected to a water outlet located above the drinking basin. A base may also be included, which may be an integral base on which both the clean water tank and the wastewater tank can be mounted. The base may include an integrally formed first base, second base, and third base, on which the clean water tank, the main structure, and the wastewater tank can be respectively mounted. An atomizer may also be included inside the wastewater tank.

[0008] A pet water fountain with paired water bowls according to this application has the following technical advantages:

[0009] (1) This application can symmetrically arrange at least one pair of water bowls relative to the main structure, so that the water dispenser of this application can meet the needs of multiple pets at the same time;

[0010] (2) Because the drinking basins are symmetrically set, they are more aesthetically pleasing and the force is more evenly distributed, which can reduce the defects in shape and force caused by eccentric setting.

[0011] (3) By installing an atomizer in the sewage tank, the sewage in the sewage tank can be atomized in time, avoiding the accumulation of dirty water in the sewage tank and eliminating the need for frequent emptying of water. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0019] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this application proposes a pet water fountain with paired drinking bowls, including a clean water tank 1, a main structure 2, a wastewater tank 4, and a base 5. The clean water tank 1, the main structure 2, and the wastewater tank 4 are all assembled onto the base 5 to form an integrated assembled structure.

[0020] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the pet water fountain of this application includes two rotatable water bowls 3 arranged in pairs, which are mounted on the main structure 2 via a flipping mechanism. The water bowls 3 can also be elongated. More specifically, the main structure 2 has a mounting part 20, on which a motor is fixedly mounted. A first gear 21 is connected to the output shaft of the motor, and the first gear 21 is connected to a second gear 22 via a transmission member 24. The second gear 22 is connected to a rotating shaft 23. Figure 1-3 As shown, the rotating shaft 23 can be connected to water bowls 3 at both ends. The flipping mechanism and the rotating shaft can be fitted with a housing to protect the internal structure. This application can symmetrically arrange at least one pair of water bowls 3 relative to the main structure, allowing the water dispenser to accommodate multiple pets simultaneously. Furthermore, the symmetrical arrangement of the water bowls improves the appearance and distributes the force more evenly, reducing defects in shape and stress caused by eccentric arrangement.

[0021] like Figure 2-3 As shown, the main structure 2 can also be equipped with a water pump 8, which is connected to the clean water tank 1 via a water suction pipe. The other end of the water suction pipe is connected to a water outlet, which is located above the drinking basin 3. When the user presses the water change button or the machine reaches the automatically set water change time, the motor starts and drives the rotating shaft 23 to rotate via the first gear 21, the transmission component 24, and the second gear 22. At this time, the drinking basin 3, located on the rotating shaft 23, begins to rotate, pouring the dirty water in the drinking basin 3 into the wastewater tank 4. A filter is installed above the wastewater tank 4 to filter solid impurities in the dirty water. After the dirty water is poured out, the drinking basin 3 rotates back to its original position, and the water pump 8 starts to run, drawing clean water from the clean water tank 1 and flowing it into the drinking basin 3 through the water outlet. The water pump stops running when the set water filling time is reached, completing one water change cycle.

[0022] Preferably, to prevent excessive accumulation of sewage in the sewage tank 4 and frequent water changes, an atomizer 7 can be installed inside the sewage tank 4. The atomizer 7 can be started manually or automatically after the water change cycle is completed. When the water change cycle is completed, the dirty water is poured into the sewage tank 4. At this time, the atomizer 7 is activated to atomize the sewage in the sewage tank 4 in a timely manner, preventing the dirty water from accumulating in the sewage tank and eliminating the need for frequent water emptying.

[0023] Preferably, such as Figure 4 As shown, the base 5 is an integral base, comprising a first base 53, a second base 54, and a third base 55, all integrally formed. The first base 53 has a first groove 56, and the purified water tank 1 has a first protrusion (not shown) corresponding to the first groove 56. The purified water tank 1 is assembled onto the first base 53 via the first protrusion and the first groove 56. The second base 54 has mounting holes and a second groove 58. The lower part of the main structure 2 has a mounting post 25 and a second protrusion 26. The second protrusion 26 extends into the second groove 58 to achieve mutual positioning of the main structure 2 and the second base 54. Fasteners are installed into the mounting post 25 through the mounting holes to secure the main structure 2 and the second base 54. The third base 55 has a third groove 57, and the bottom of the wastewater tank 4 has a third protrusion (not shown) that mates with the third groove 57. The wastewater tank 4 is assembled onto the third base 55 via the mating of the third protrusion and the third groove. This application uses a monolithic base, onto which the clean water tank, main structure, and wastewater tank are assembled separately, forming a stable, integrated structure. This improves the overall integrity and stability of the water dispenser, preventing the wastewater tank from shifting during pet use and avoiding the risk of wastewater leakage. Furthermore, assembly is simple. Preferably, sensors can be installed at the mounting points of the wastewater tank and clean water tank to detect whether they are properly installed.

[0024] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, a water flow switch 50 and a sealing ring 51 are provided on the first base 53 on which the water purification tank 1 is assembled. When the water purification tank 1 is assembled on the first base 53, the water flow switch 50 opens the outlet of the water purification tank 1, and the water in the water purification tank 1 can flow out. An electronic control board 52 is also provided on the first base 53, and the electronic control board 52 and the water storage tank are sealed and isolated by the sealing ring 51.

[0025] exist Figure 6 In one alternative embodiment shown, the water tank 1 may not be directly mounted onto the first groove 56 of the base 5, but may be indirectly connected via a housing 59. In this case, the bottom of the housing 59 needs to be mounted onto the first base 53, and the water flow switch 50 should protrude from the top of the housing 59. With this configuration, the bottom of the water tank 1 can be made flush, and then the water tank 1 can be mounted onto the housing 59 via the water flow switch 50.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application.
