Description

DESCRIPTION

Accessory to make it easier for pets to drink

Technical object of the invention

The present invention describes an accessory, in the form of a deformable cup, which is attached to the housings of the usual leashes for controlling dogs or any other pet, which allows drinks to be provided quickly when required by the pet, thus avoiding waiting periods until other alternative solutions can be applied.

Sector of the technique to which the invention refers

The invention presented corresponds to the section of everyday life needs, rural activities related to the care and breeding of domestic animals, food and food products section, of the International Patent Classification (GIP), focusing from an industrial point of view on the manufacture of accessories for pet care. Background of the invention

Nowadays, living with pets is widespread throughout the world, the most common being dogs, cats, and small birds.

All of these pets require a series of care tasks that are mostly carried out in the home itself, although, in the case of dogs, it is very necessary to take them outdoors for physical and physiological reasons, especially in the case of larger animals. One of their basic needs is a drink, which is not always available where it would be desirable, except in the home itself, where very simple drinking fountains such as plates, bowls, mugs, or similar can be found.

But when you go out for a walk with your pet, you have to resort to other solutions, such as approaching fountains, ponds, streams, or, for greater safety, using portable water bottles, dispenser bottles, and the like.

Being an essential pet care accessory, it's only natural that several inventions have been registered with the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office. Here are a few examples, which offer different solutions related to pet drinks.

ES-1061312 U Anti-ant feeder and drinker for pets.

ES-2170558 T3 Water or liquid food distributor for small pets.

ES-2251652 T3 Drinking fountain for receiving and opening a closed beverage can, such as a full and closed beverage can and unit.

ES-2696201 A1 Pet drink.

Utility Model ES-1061312 U describes a feeder and drinker designed to prevent ants from accessing pet food or drink.

Patent ES-1061312 U refers to a device designed so that the pet owner does not have to be aware of the water supply, being a solution that allows the pet to access the drink, at any time, in a simple and easy-to-learn way.

The invention ES-2251652 T3 describes a solution similar to the previous one in which the pet accesses the drink itself with a level indicator that allows the owner to know when it is appropriate to replenish the liquid.

Patent ES-2696201 A1 refers exclusively to the drink itself, describing a stabilized product that allows for a variety of different types depending on the characteristics and/or needs of pets and may contain mineral salts or other substances in solution that may be proteins, vitamins or carbohydrates.

None of these can be considered close to the invention presented in this document, as the inventor has not found any solutions similar to the one presented, and therefore considers it to be a novelty in the current State of the Art with the advantage of being a simple, economical and easy-to-manufacture solution.

Summary description of the invention

The invention presented in this document, as indicated above, relates to an accessory, in the form of a deformable cup, which is attached to the housings of the usual leashes for controlling dogs or any other pet, which allows drinks to be provided quickly during walks outside the home.
