Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet supplies technology, specifically to a spinning, food-dispensing pet toy. Background Technology

[0002] Spinning wheel pet toys are very popular interactive toys on the market. There are many types available, but they are usually spheres or cylinders with a rotating wheel-like chamber with holes. Cats simply need to perform actions such as patting, pushing, or rolling the wheel. As the wheel rotates and moves to a specific angle, the treats or dry food inside leak out due to gravity. This not only satisfies their feeding needs but also provides some intellectual exercise through play.

[0003] The feeding holes on the spinning wheel of the aforementioned common pet treat-dispensing toys are usually too large. Once the hole is rotated to the downward position, the treat will naturally and quickly spill out under the influence of gravity. Alternatively, the pet may only need to touch it lightly, and the wheel may rotate more than half a circle and drop out multiple pieces of food. All of these situations will prevent the toy from achieving the effect of slowing down the feeding process.

[0004] On the other hand, the aforementioned spinning feed-dispensing pet toys leak food too quickly, and their monotonous gameplay, lack of challenge and variation, results in insufficient sustainable appeal and playability. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a new type of toy that combines the functions of food leakage and play, with a more complex and varied food leakage principle and greater playability.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A rotating, food-dispensing pet toy includes a base and a food storage assembly. The food storage assembly includes a support frame, two food storage half-shells, and two rotating support bodies. The support frame is fixedly installed at one end of the base, and a partition is provided inside the support frame, dividing the support frame into two sub-support frames. Each sub-support frame has a food-dispensing hole on its peripheral wall. The two rotating support bodies are respectively installed at the rotation axis positions on opposite sides of the partition. The two food storage half-shells are rotatably installed on the outside of the two rotating support bodies via bearing assemblies. The two food storage half-shells and the two sub-support frames respectively enclose and form two food storage compartments.

[0007] Preferably, the bearing assembly includes a bearing and a bearing housing. The bearing is fitted and fixed to the outer cylindrical surface of the bearing housing through its inner hole. The outer ring of the bearing is installed and fixed to the inner hole of the grain storage silo half shell. The bearing housing, the bearing, and the grain storage silo half shell are fixed together to form a rotating grain storage silo assembly that can rotate as a whole. The rotating grain storage silo assembly rotates relative to the rotating support body through the bearing housing.

[0008] Preferably, the outer wall of the rotating support is provided with a rotating shaft, and the inner hole of the bearing seat is fitted onto the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft and the inner hole of the bearing seat are fitted with a clearance fit or a rotational fit, so that the rotating grain storage silo assembly can rotate freely around the fixed rotating shaft.

[0009] Preferably, a rotary lock cover is fixed to the outer end of the rotating shaft to axially lock the rotating grain storage silo assembly to the rotating support.

[0010] Preferably, the outer end of the rotating shaft is provided with threads, and the rotating lock cover is screwed onto the threads of the rotating shaft through the central thread.

[0011] Preferably, the inner wall of the grain storage silo half-shell is provided with baffles.

[0012] Preferably, the peripheral wall of the support frame is provided with an openable grain storage bin opening.

[0013] Preferably, the other end of the base is provided with a feeding trough to catch food that leaks out through the feeding hole.

[0014] Preferably, a plurality of first mounting portions are provided at equal intervals around the rotation axis on both sides of the partition, and a plurality of second mounting portions are provided around the axis of the rotating support. The first mounting portions and the second mounting portions are connected to fix one of the rotating supports to one side of the partition.

[0015] More preferably, the partition is circular, with multiple hollow mounting columns evenly spaced around the center of both sides, and multiple mounting holes correspondingly provided around the axis of the rotating support. The mounting columns are inserted into the mounting holes and fixed to each other by fasteners, thereby fixing one of the rotating supports to one side of the support frame, that is, the outside of a sub-support frame.

[0016] Preferably, the base is provided with a mounting groove, and the lower end of the support frame is provided with a bracket adapted to the mounting groove, the bracket being inserted into and fixed within the mounting groove. Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model of a rotating food-dispensing pet toy has two food storage compartments on the left and right. As the food storage compartment half-shell rotates, the food rolls inside the storage compartment and falls out through the food-dispensing hole. The food-dispensing process is more complicated and interesting, which can effectively slow down the cat's eating speed and increase the fun of eating.

[0017] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0019] This embodiment provides a spinning, food-dispensing pet toy, which, as follows: Figure 1 As shown, it includes a base 10 and a food storage hopper assembly. The food storage hopper assembly includes a support frame 20, a rotating support body 60, a bearing assembly, two food storage hopper half-shells 30, a food storage cover 40, and a rotating lock cover 50. The bearing assembly includes a bearing seat 80 and a bearing 70. The support frame 20 is fixedly installed at one end of the base 10, and the peripheral wall of the support frame 20 is provided with a food leakage hole 31. The two food storage hopper half-shells 30 and the support frame 20 constitute two symmetrical food storage hoppers. The other end of the base 10 is provided with a feeding trough 11 for receiving and containing food that leaks out through the food leakage hole 31. When the pet rotates the food storage hopper, the food inside the food storage hopper falls into the feeding trough 11 of the base, where the pet can obtain food.

[0020] Specifically, the base 10 is provided with a mounting groove 12, and the lower end of the support frame 20 is provided with a bracket 21 that is adapted to the mounting groove 12. The bracket 21 is inserted into the mounting groove 12 and fixed.

[0021] A preferred embodiment is as follows Figure 3 As shown, see also Figure 2The bracket 21 is fixed to each other by fasteners and fixing parts 16 at the bottom of the mounting groove 12.

[0022] Another preferred embodiment is as follows Figure 4 As shown, multiple ribs 211 are provided along the circumference of the bracket 21. Correspondingly, multiple guide grooves 121 are provided at corresponding positions on the inner wall of the mounting groove 12. The ribs 211 of the bracket 21 are inserted into the mounting groove 12 along the guide grooves 121. The guide grooves 121 and the ribs 211 serve to guide the bracket 21 during installation and limit its position after installation.

[0023] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, to prevent the bracket 21 from rotating relative to the mounting groove 12, the bracket 21 is provided as a rectangular protrusion and the mounting groove 12 is provided as a rectangular groove, so as to simplify the processing and enhance the reliability of the anti-rotation.

[0024] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the support frame 20 is cylindrical, with a partition 26 inside. The partition 26 is coaxial with the two end faces of the support frame 20, dividing the support frame 20 into two symmetrical sub-support frames. Two circular rotating supports 60 are symmetrically installed on the center of opposite sides of the partition 26, with the support frame 20 and the two rotating supports 60 being coaxial. The outer edges of the two grain storage half-shells 30 are also circular, symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the support frame 20. The edges of the grain storage half-shells 30 and the edges of the support frame 20 are connected, so that the two grain storage half-shells 30 and the two sub-support frames together form two grain storage silos on the left and right sides. At the same time, the rotating supports 60 are sandwiched between the grain storage half-shells 30 and the partition 26. The annular area around the rotating supports 60 in each grain storage silo becomes a rolling channel for food. Each sub-support frame has a food leakage hole 31 on its peripheral wall.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, four hollow mounting columns 22 are equally spaced around the center of both sides of the partition plate 26 of the support frame 20. Four mounting holes are correspondingly provided around the axis of the rotating support body 60. The four mounting columns 22 extend into the four mounting holes one by one and are fixed by bolts or other fasteners, thereby fixing one rotating support body 60 to one side of the support frame 20. The grain storage half shell 30 is connected to the outside of the rotating support body 60.

[0026] The support frame 20 has a grain storage compartment opening 25 on its side wall. A grain storage cover 40 is fitted onto the grain storage compartment opening 25, allowing food to be placed into the grain storage compartment by opening the grain storage cover 40. The grain storage compartment opening 25 communicates with both grain storage compartments. In a preferred embodiment, one side of the grain storage cover 40 is mounted to one side of the grain storage compartment opening 25 via a rotating shaft, facilitating the opening and closing of the grain storage cover 40. Furthermore, each side of one end of the grain storage compartment opening 25 has a shaft hole 23, and the corresponding end of the grain storage cover 40 has two protrusions 41 serving as rotating shafts. One end of the grain storage cover 40 is rotatably mounted to the side wall of the support frame 20 through the cooperation of the protrusions 41 and the shaft holes 23.

[0027] like Figure 6 As shown, the bearing 70 is fitted and fixed to the outer cylindrical surface of the bearing seat 80 through its inner hole, forming a bearing assembly. The outer ring of the bearing 70 is installed and fixed to the inner hole on the grain storage half-shell 30. In this way, the bearing seat 80, the bearing 70, and the grain storage half-shell 30 are fixed together to form a rotating grain storage assembly that can rotate as a whole. A rotating shaft is provided in the center of the outer wall of the rotating support 60. The inner hole of the bearing seat 80 is fitted onto the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft and the inner hole of the bearing seat 80 are in clearance fit or rotational fit, so that the rotating grain storage assembly can rotate freely around the fixed rotating shaft. At the same time, the food in the grain storage silo falls out through the feed hole 31 during the rolling process and falls into the feeding trough 11.

[0028] To prevent the rotating grain storage silo assembly from detaching from the rotating shaft, a threaded connection 62 is provided at the end of the rotating shaft. A rotary locking cover 50 with a central thread 51 is screwed onto the threaded connection 62 of the rotating shaft, thereby axially locking the entire rotating grain storage silo assembly onto the rotating support body 60. This threaded connection also facilitates the user's removal of the rotary locking cover 50, allowing the rotating grain storage silo assembly to be taken off for cleaning.

[0029] The inner wall of the grain storage silo half shell 30 is equipped with baffles to interfere with the flow of grain during the rotation of the grain storage silo, thereby effectively slowing down the rate of grain leakage.

[0030] This invention incorporates pet treats into a food storage compartment. When a cat plays with and spins the compartment, the treats and food inside fall through a feeding hole into a feeding trough located on the base. The cat automatically receives treats while using the feeding toy, increasing the difficulty and fun of the food leakage process to prolong eating time. Even when home alone, the cat can obtain treats by playing with the feeding toy.

[0031] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
