In addition, referring to fig. 7, the invention also provides an intelligent drinking water control method for pets, which can realize accurate detection of the drinking water amount of the pets, and can automatically perform functions of water replenishing, water changing, cleaning, water draining and the like on the drinking water tray 21, so that the health of the pets can be further ensured; specifically, the method comprises the following steps:
firstly, whether the main control module judges that the water purifying tank is in an empty water state or not needs to be judged, if so, the main control module detects whether the water quantity in the water purifying tank is smaller than or equal to a preset first threshold value or not through a water quantity detection mechanism of the water purifying tank, if so, the water quantity in the water purifying tank is insufficient, water needs to be supplemented into the water purifying tank, namely, the main control module transmits water supplementing information of the water purifying tank to the outside through a communication module or an indication module, the first threshold value needs to be at least larger than the water quantity for supplementing water to the water tray 21 once (namely, the empty water tray 21 is supplemented with water to a full water threshold value), and when the water quantity in the water purifying tank is smaller than or equal to the first threshold value, only the water tray 21 is supplemented with water without changing water; if the system has the cleaning function, the first threshold value needs to be at least larger than the total water consumption of one-time cleaning and water replenishing, and when the first threshold value is smaller than or equal to the preset value, only the water is replenished to the water tray 21 without changing water or cleaning; if the water content is larger than the first threshold value, the water content in the purified water tank is sufficient, then whether the water in the waste water tank needs to be discharged needs to be judged next, that is, the main control module detects whether the water amount of the waste water tank is larger than or equal to a preset second threshold value through the waste water tank detection mechanism (the second threshold value is at least smaller than the water amount of the water change of the water drinking tray 21 once, the water change is not performed when the second threshold value is larger than or equal to a preset value, if the main control module has a cleaning function, the preset value needs to be at least smaller than the water amount of the water cleaning once, and when the main control module is larger than or equal to the preset value, the water drinking tray 21 does not change the water and is not cleaned), if the main control module has the cleaning function, the water in the waste water tank is full and needs to be discharged, namely, the main control module transmits the information that the waste water tank needs to be poured to the outside through the communication module or the indicating module, if not, it means that the remaining volume of the waste tank is still sufficient and no drainage is required, and it is necessary to determine whether the drinking water tray 21 has reached the water change condition.
In this embodiment, the water changing condition may be that the storage time of the water in the water tray 21 reaches a preset water changing time threshold, or the number of times of water replenishment exceeds a preset water replenishing time threshold, or the water amount of the water in the water tray 21 reaches a preset cleaning threshold (the water remaining on the water tray 21 is little but generally dirty, and the part of water is required to be changed away), or the water is changed by actively pressing a key through a function key module, or the automatic water changing time is set on an external intelligent terminal, or the water drinking amount and the water drinking times of a pet (the water amount continuously changes to be drinking once) can be detected through a water tray weighing mechanism, and then the water drinking time threshold can be set according to the data, and when the water drinking time threshold is reached, the water changing is started; when the main control module determines that the drinking water tray 21 needs to change water according to the preset water change condition, the main control module controls the sealing driving mechanism to open the water outlet 241, so as to discharge the waste water in the drinking water tray 21 to a waste water tank, and control the drinking water tray water quantity detection mechanism 23 to detect whether the water quantity in the drinking water tray 21 reaches a preset empty water threshold value, if so, the water inlet mechanism 22 is controlled to uniformly guide the water in the purified water tank to the surface of the drinking water tray 21 for cleaning, and after the cleaning is finished, the sealing driving mechanism is controlled to close the water outlet 241, then, the main control module controls the water inlet mechanism 22 to continuously guide the water in the purified water tank to the drinking water tray 21, and the water quantity detection mechanism 23 of the drinking water tray detects whether the water quantity in the drinking water tray 21 reaches the preset full water threshold value, if yes, the main control module controls the water inlet mechanism 22 to stop working, and if not, whether the water quantity in the purified water tank is sufficient needs to be detected.
If the water purifying tank is not judged to be in an empty state, the main control module detects whether the water quantity on the water drinking tray 21 is smaller than or equal to a preset water supplementing threshold value through the water drinking tray water quantity detection mechanism 23, the water supplementing threshold value can be smaller than the full water threshold value of the water drinking tray 21 or equal to the full water threshold value (namely, water is supplemented only slightly less by the water in the water drinking tray 21), the difference between the water supplementing frequency and the full water threshold value is different, the larger the difference between the water supplementing threshold value for starting water supplementing and the full water threshold value is, the lower the water supplementing frequency is, if the water supplementing frequency is smaller than or equal to the water supplementing threshold value, water needs to be supplemented into the water drinking tray 21, namely, the main control module controls the water inlet mechanism 22 to guide the water in the water purifying tank to the water drinking tray 21, and detects whether the water quantity in the water drinking tray 21 reaches the preset full water threshold value through the water drinking tray water quantity detection mechanism 23, if the water quantity is empty, the main control module controls the water inlet mechanism 22 to stop working, if the water supplementing time is not, the main control module judges whether the water supplementing time of the water tray 21 exceeds the preset time threshold value, if, then show that the water yield in the water purification case is not enough, master control module judges that the water purification case is empty water state promptly to control mechanism 22 stop work of intaking, send the information that the water purification case needs the moisturizing to the external world, in addition, be close to response module 4 when monitoring that the pet is drinking water, then drinking water dish 21 does not change the water action, in order to avoid influencing pet drinking water, convenient and practical.
The present invention is not limited to the above preferred embodiments, and any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
