Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the invention.

[0014] FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] Embodiments of the invention will be further described in details hereinafter with reference to the drawings and specific examples.

[0016] As shown in FIG. 1, a pet water feeder with a water level alarm function includes a water storage tank 1 and a water drinking basin 2, which are configured to be in fluid communication with each other, wherein a water level sensor 3 is installed inside the water drinking basin 2 close to the bottom of the water drinking basin 2. A buzzer 4 is installed on the bottom outside the water drinking basin 2.

[0017] To add water conveniently, the water storage tank 1 is detachably installed on the water drinking basin 2. The connection may be as follows: the water drinking basin 2 is provided with a connecting portion 21. The connecting portion 21 is provided with a sunken round recess platform 22. The center of the round recess platform 22 is provided with a through hole configured to be in communication with the water drinking basin 2. A connecting pipe 23 matching an water outlet of the water storage tank 1 extends vertically upwards along the center of the round recess platform 22. The connecting pipe 23 may be connected with the water outlet of the water storage tank 1 through the matched internal thread and external thread.

[0018] In some embodiments, the inner diameter of the connecting pipe and the internal diameter can be designed into a universal type, and configured to match an universal opening of a conventional bottle (e.g., a coke bottle or other beverage bottle). In this way, the water storage tank 1 can be directly replaced by a coke bottle or other beverage bottle, thereby achieving the object of recycling waste beverage bottle.

[0019] In order to prevent overflow caused by the unceasing flowing of the water in the water storage tank 1 towards the water drinking basin 2, the bottom of the round recess platform 22 is designed to be located at a height ranging from one half to two thirds of height of the water drinking basin 2, so that when the water level in the water drinking basin 2 is equal to the height of the bottom of the round recess platform 22, the water in the water storage tank 1 will stop flowing towards the water storage tank 2.

[0020] To install a battery conveniently, the bottom of the connecting portion 21 may be provided with a battery box 5, which, for example, may be opened downwards.

[0021] When an embodiment of the invention is in use, the buzzer 4 may be triggered to sound when the water in the water storage tank 1 is used up and the water level in the water drinking basin 2 is lower than the water level sensor 3, thereby reminding the master (pet owner) to add water in time. When adding water, one only needs to unscrew the water storage tank 1, fill it with water, and then re-install the water storage tank on the water drinking basin 2.
