Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pet supplies technology, and in particular to an intelligent pet water dispenser. Background Technology

[0002] A pet water fountain is a device used in a home environment to provide pets with circulating and filtered drinking water. It typically uses a water pump to drive the water flow and purify it through a filter assembly, aiming to provide pets with a cleaner drinking water source.

[0003] However, existing pet water fountains still have significant structural and functional shortcomings. Firstly, they generally rely on a continuous external power supply, limiting their placement to power outlets. Exposed power cords are not only unsightly but can also cause entanglement or damage due to pet activity. Secondly, the filter modules used are often simple in structure and limited in capacity, for example, with insufficient activated carbon content or a single filtration stage, resulting in unsatisfactory water purification. Furthermore, common waterfall and fountain water flow designs generate significant impact when water flows out, easily causing splashing and continuous noise. This not only disturbs the indoor environment but may also cause discomfort for some pets, reducing their use. Existing products often lack intelligent sensing and interactive capabilities, operating in a fixed and singular mode, unable to automatically start and stop based on pet proximity, making it difficult to achieve energy savings and interaction with pets.

[0004] The problem this invention aims to solve is to provide a wireless, portable, and intelligent pet water dispenser with smart sensing capabilities, addressing the aforementioned shortcomings. The technical solution is as follows: To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution proposed by this utility model is: an intelligent pet water dispenser, comprising: The base basin is used to store water. A top cover is provided above the base basin, and the top cover has a drinking area and an overflow outlet; A water supply module is included, with its lower part submerged in the water storage of the basin and its upper part passing through and fixed to the top cover. The water supply module includes a water pump, a control circuit board, and a lithium battery. The water pump's inlet is located within the water storage of the basin, and its outlet is connected to a water outlet via a water pipe to supply water to the drinking area. The control circuit board is equipped with a microwave radar sensing module, which is electrically connected to the water pump to control its start and stop. The lithium battery is electrically connected to both the control circuit board and the water pump, providing power to both. The microwave radar sensing module has a scanning angle of 0~120° and a sensing distance of 0~0.8 meters. A filter assembly is installed in the return water path from the overflow outlet to the bottom basin.

[0005] In one embodiment, the control circuit board is configured to control the water pump to start when the microwave radar sensing module detects a moving object within a set sensing distance.

[0006] In one embodiment, the water supply module further includes a top cover, on which a thin-film panel is provided. The thin-film panel integrates a switch button and a status indicator light for displaying the working status of the device.

[0007] In one embodiment, the filtration assembly includes a filter box disposed below the overflow outlet for accommodating a filter cartridge.

[0008] In one embodiment, the filter element is a composite filter element comprising an activated carbon layer and biochemical cotton.

[0009] In one embodiment, the base and the top cover are made of stainless steel.

[0010] In one embodiment, the water pump is provided with bio-cotton for preliminary filtration at its inlet end.

[0011] In one embodiment, the lithium battery is connected to a charging port.

[0012] In one embodiment, the outlet is provided with a guide channel, and the width of the guide channel gradually decreases.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By adopting a water jet design, the water output is concentrated and stable, with minimal impact when falling onto the water surface, effectively avoiding splashing and significantly reducing water flow noise, thus improving the comfort of pets drinking water; by integrating the lithium battery into the water supply module and forming an independent power system, the water dispenser is completely free from dependence on fixed sockets, achieving wireless portability and placement in any location, effectively avoiding power cord tangling problems; the microwave radar sensing module on the control circuit board determines whether a target is approaching by detecting changes in microwave signals caused by object movement within its detection area. Its detection angle and installation height are suitable for detecting the regular activities of pets rather than adults. It realizes an intelligent sensing function that automatically starts water supply when a pet approaches and stops after a delay when the pet leaves, effectively reducing standby power consumption and improving ease of use and pet interaction. The filter component set between the overflow outlet and the bottom basin realizes continuous filtration and purification of circulating water. Combined with a composite filter element containing an activated carbon layer and bio-cotton, it effectively removes impurities and odors from the water, achieving the effect of continuous water purification. By using stainless steel for the bottom basin and top cover, the durability and hygiene of the water storage components are improved, extending the product's service life and facilitating cleaning and maintenance.

[0023] Unless otherwise defined, all technical terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art. The technical terms used herein are for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this invention.

[0024] Unless otherwise specified, all raw materials, reagents, instruments and equipment used in this invention can be purchased from the market or prepared by existing methods.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-6 An intelligent pet water fountain according to one embodiment mainly includes: a base basin 1, a top cover 6, a water supply module, and a filter assembly. The base basin 1 is used for water storage. The top cover 6 is located above the base basin 1 and has a drinking area for pets and an overflow outlet 7 for water circulation. The lower part of the water supply module is submerged in the water stored in the base basin 1, and the upper part passes through and is fixed to the top cover 6. The water supply module includes a water pump 3, a control circuit board 12, and a lithium battery 10. The water inlet of the water pump 3 is located near the bottom of the base basin 1, and its outlet is connected to the outlet 5 through a water guide pipe 4 to supply water to the drinking area. Specifically, the flow channel of the outlet 5 is narrowed and guided by a design that allows the water flow from the outlet 5 to form a concentrated and continuous water column. The control circuit board 12 is equipped with a microwave radar sensing module, which is used to start the water pump 3 when a pet is detected approaching, thereby achieving energy-saving control. Specifically, the microwave radar sensing module's detection angle and installation height are suitable for detecting the routine activities of pets rather than adults. It determines whether a target is approaching by detecting changes in microwave signals caused by object movement within its detection area. The microwave radar sensing module can be set to two modes: sensing mode and intermittent mode. In sensing mode, the microwave radar sensing module's scanning angle is 0~120°, and the sensing distance is 0~0.8 meters. When a pet approaches this distance, the water pump 3 starts, and water flows through the pump 3 into the water pipe 4, then out of the outlet 5, allowing the pet to drink. In intermittent mode, the water pump starts for 15 seconds every 15 minutes, and water flows through the pump pressure into the water pipe, then out of the outlet, allowing the pet to drink. The lithium battery 10 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 12 and the water pump 3, and supplies power to both, so that the smart pet water fountain does not require an external power source. Specifically, the lithium battery 10 is also connected to a charging port 11, which is used to charge the lithium battery 10, providing up to 30 days of battery life on a single charge. The filter assembly is installed in the return water path from the overflow outlet 7 to the bottom basin 1 for circulating and filtering water quality.

[0026] Specifically, the control circuit board 12 is configured to start the water pump 3 when the microwave radar sensing module detects a moving object within a set sensing distance. This configuration enables intelligent sensing and automatic water supply, avoiding energy waste caused by the continuous operation of the water pump 3.

[0027] Specifically, the water supply module also includes a top cover 13, on which a membrane panel 14 is mounted. The membrane panel 14 integrates a switch button 14a and status indicator lights for displaying the device's operating status. The status indicator lights include a smart sensor indicator light 14b, an intermittent circulation mode indicator light 14c, a filter replacement indicator light 14d, and a battery level indicator light 14e for displaying the remaining battery power. This structure provides an intuitive human-machine interface, facilitating manual control and real-time monitoring of the device's operating status.

[0028] Specifically, the filtration assembly includes a filter box 9, which is located below the overflow outlet 7 and is used to house the filter element 8. This arrangement allows the return water flow to be concentrated and completely pass through the filter element, ensuring filtration efficiency.

[0029] Specifically, filter element 8 is a composite filter element containing an activated carbon layer and bio-cotton. This multi-layer composite structure can synergistically achieve physical interception and chemical adsorption, comprehensively improving the purification effect on impurities and odors in water.

[0030] Specifically, the base 1 and the top cover 6 are made of stainless steel. This material ensures the durability and hygiene of the water storage components and extends the overall lifespan of the product.

[0031] Specifically, the water pump 3 is also equipped with bio-cotton 2 for preliminary filtration at its inlet. By installing bio-cotton at the water pump inlet, preliminary filtration of the water quality is achieved, effectively protecting the core components of the water pump and improving the operational reliability and service life of the equipment.

[0032] The above-mentioned intelligent pet water fountain is used as follows: First, fill the base basin 1 with clean water to the appropriate water level. Next, briefly press the power switch 14a on the membrane panel 14 to turn on the device. By pressing and holding the power switch (for more than 2 seconds), you can switch between intelligent sensing mode and intermittent circulation mode. The current mode is indicated by the corresponding intelligent sensing indicator 14b and intermittent circulation mode indicator 14c. The device operates automatically according to the selected mode. In intelligent sensing mode, the microwave radar sensing module automatically starts the water pump 3 to supply water when it detects a pet approaching, and stops after a delay when the pet leaves. In intermittent circulation mode, the device periodically starts the water pump 3 to circulate water according to a preset program. The filter components continuously purify the circulating water at the same time. The status indicator lights on the membrane panel 14 display the device's working status, filter life, and battery level in real time. When the filter replacement indicator 14d lights up, the filter element 8 needs to be replaced and all components need to be cleaned.

[0033] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
