Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet supplies technology, specifically, a pet water bottle that can automatically maintain the water level. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the most common automatic pet water dispensers on the market mainly use two principles: one is to use the principle of communicating vessels to keep the water level in the storage tank and the water bowl the same; the other is to use a mechanical float valve to control the water inlet.

[0003] Water dispensers based on the principle of communicating vessels have a simple structure, but in actual use, when a pet drinks and the water level drops, the water in the reservoir can surge out instantly, easily causing the water level to rise too high or even splashing. At the same time, when a pet's head touches the water bowl or the device is moved, the water level can easily become unbalanced, leading to continuous leakage or overflow. This not only wastes water resources and wets the surrounding environment but also provides conditions for bacterial growth.

[0004] While traditional float valve-based drinking devices can control water levels, their complex structure and large size make them unsuitable for small to medium-sized pets. Furthermore, the long stroke of traditional float valves results in less sensitive opening and closing responses, potentially leading to inaccurate water level control and issues like the valve not closing properly or failing to open. The sealing structure of float valves is also susceptible to damage from limescale or pet hair, causing continuous water flow.

[0005] Therefore, there is a need in the prior art for a pet drinking device that is simple in structure, has sensitive and accurate water level control, and can effectively prevent leakage. Utility Model Content

[0006] This invention designs a pet water bucket, which solves the technical problems of existing pet water devices, such as insensitive water level control, easy leakage, and complex structure.

[0007] To solve the aforementioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following solution: A pet water bottle includes a bottle body and a water bowl. The bottle body has a water-holding cavity inside, and a water outlet pipe is provided at the bottom of the bottle body, extending into the water bowl. The water bottle also includes an automatic float, which is hinged to the bottom of the bottle body via a hinge structure and can swing up and down around the hinge point. The automatic float includes a buoyancy reset part and a blocking part. When the water level in the water bowl drops, the buoyancy of the buoyancy reset part decreases, and the automatic float swings downward, causing the blocking part to separate from the water outlet of the water outlet pipe, allowing water from the bottle body to flow into the water bowl. When the water level rises, the buoyancy of the buoyancy reset part increases, driving the automatic float to swing upward, causing the blocking part to close the water outlet of the water outlet pipe.

[0008] Preferably, the inner side of the drinking bowl is provided with a limiting inclined surface to limit the extreme position of the automatic float moving downward.

[0009] Preferably, the blocking part is provided with a sealing ring, which forms a seal with the water outlet of the water outlet pipe when the automatic float moves upward.

[0010] Preferably, the cross-sectional area of ​​the sealing ring is larger than the area of ​​the water outlet of the water outlet pipe.

[0011] Preferably, the buoyancy reset part is a box-shaped structure, and its horizontal projected area is larger than that of the blocking part.

[0012] Preferably, the drinking bowl is provided with a connecting post, and the side wall of the bucket is provided with a connecting hole adapted to the connecting post. The drinking bowl is detachably connected to the bucket through the cooperation of the connecting post and the connecting hole.

[0013] Preferably, the barrel body is made of a transparent or translucent material.

[0014] Preferably, the barrel body is also provided with a handle.

[0015] Compared with existing technologies, this pet water bottle has the following advantages: (1) This utility model, through the cooperation of the automatic float structure and the upper limit inclined surface of the drinking bowl, limits the downward movement distance of the automatic float, so that even a slight change in the water level in the drinking bowl can trigger the up and down movement of the automatic float, thereby achieving rapid opening and closing. This avoids flooding, ensures a stable water level, and allows pets to drink water at a suitable level at any time.

[0016] (2) The automatic float in this invention has a sealing ring on the blocking part, and its area is larger than the water outlet area. It uses water pressure to assist in sealing, and the sealing effect is good. This structure can effectively prevent leakage and constant water flow caused by slight tilting of the device, collision with pets or changes in water level, and keep the environment dry and hygienic.

[0017] (3) The barrel of this utility model can be made transparent, so that users can intuitively see the remaining water volume and replenish water in time. The handle on the top is also convenient for carrying and daily management.

[0018] (4) The entire automatic control mechanism of this utility model consists of only a few parts such as a float, a hinge rod, and a water outlet pipe. It does not require complex transmission or electronic components, which reduces manufacturing costs and failure rate. At the same time, the structure is compact and does not take up space, making the product small and easy to clean and maintain, suitable for long-term home use. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The following is combined Figures 1 to 4 The present invention will be further described below: like Figure 1 As shown, the pet water bottle of this utility model includes a bottle body 1, a lid 2, and a water bowl 3. The bottle body 1 has a water-holding cavity, the lid 2 is used to close the bottle body 1, and the bottle body 1 has a handle 5. The bottle body 1 can be transparent, allowing the user to easily see the liquid level in the bottle body 1.

[0025] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the bottom of the bucket body 1 has an installation cavity, and part of the drinking bowl 3 is connected to the installation cavity, while the other part is located outside the bucket body 1. The drinking bowl 3 is provided with a connecting post 32, and the corresponding vertical wall of the bucket body 1 is provided with a connecting hole 12. The connecting hole 12 and the connecting post 32 cooperate to realize the connection between the bucket body 1 and the drinking bowl 3.

[0026] The bottom of the bucket 1 is provided with a water outlet pipe 11 that extends into the drinking bowl 3, and there is a water outlet channel 111 in the water outlet pipe 11. The water outlet pipe 11 works in conjunction with the automatic float 4 to automatically control the amount of drinking water in the bucket 1 that enters the drinking bowl 3.

[0027] The drinking bowl 3 has a limiting slope 31 on the side near the connecting post 32. The limiting slope 31 can limit the downward movement distance of the automatic float 4, thereby ensuring that when the water level of the drinking bowl 3 changes, the automatic float 4 can block the water outlet pipe 11 with a small displacement.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, the automatic float 4 includes a buoyancy reset part 41, a blocking part 42, and a hinge part 44, with the blocking part 42 located between the buoyancy reset part 41 and the hinge part 44.

[0029] The hinge part 44 is hinged to the hinge rod 13 at the bottom of the barrel 1 by a pin, so that when there is no drinking water, the buoyancy reset part 41 and the blocking part 42 can move downward and separate from the water outlet pipe 11 under their own weight.

[0030] The blocking part 42 has a groove in which a sealing ring 43 is provided. The upwardly moving sealing ring 43 can close the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 11. The area of ​​the sealing ring 43 is larger than the area of ​​the water outlet.

[0031] The buoyancy reset part 41 is box-shaped to easily obtain sufficient buoyancy, so that the blocking part 42 can easily obtain upward buoyancy. The area of ​​the buoyancy reset part 41 is larger than the area of ​​the blocking part 42.

[0032] The core working principle of this pet water bottle is to automatically control the opening and closing of the water outlet using buoyancy. The working process is as follows: When there is no water or the water level in the drinking bowl 3 is low, the buoyancy of the buoyancy reset part 41 of the automatic float 4 decreases or disappears. Under its own weight, the automatic float 4 swings downward around the hinge part 44, causing the blocking part 42 on it to separate from the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 11. At this time, the water in the bucket 1 flows into the drinking bowl 3 through the channel 111 of the water outlet pipe 11 under the action of gravity.

[0033] As the water level in the drinking bowl 3 gradually rises, the liquid submerges the buoyancy reset part 41 of the automatic float 4 and generates upward buoyancy. When the water level rises to a preset height, the generated buoyancy is sufficient to overcome the weight of the automatic float 4, driving the automatic float 4 to swing upward around the hinge point. At this time, the sealing ring 43 installed on the blocking part 42 presses tightly against the water outlet of the water outlet pipe 11. Since the area of ​​the sealing ring 43 is larger than the area of ​​the water outlet, a reliable seal is formed under the action of water pressure, thereby cutting off the water flow.

[0034] When the water level in the pet's drinking bowl drops, the buoyancy of the buoyancy reset part 41 decreases accordingly. Under the influence of gravity, the automatic float 4 swings slightly downward again, breaking the seal and allowing water to flow in again. This process repeats continuously. Through the sensitive up-and-down swinging of the automatic float 4, the water level in the drinking bowl 3 is automatically maintained, ensuring that the pet always has clean and adequate drinking water.

[0035] In addition, the limiting slope 31 on the drinking bowl 3 limits the downward swing amplitude of the automatic float 4, ensuring that the float is always in an optimal ready position, thereby greatly improving the sensitivity and response speed of water level control.

[0036] This new pet water bottle features a more sensitive and accurate automatic water dispensing switch, better suited to pets' drinking habits, and ensures their health.

Obviously, the implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any improvements made by adopting the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention to other occasions without modification, are all within the protection scope of the present invention.
