Automatic Water Bowl
My two 180 lbs English Mastiffs drink tons of water, and every time they drink, they leave behind drool, pieces of dog food, and dirt in the water bowl. I purchased this stainless steel automatic water bowl from Amazon.com that keeps the water bowl full. Then I mounted it onto a shaft driven by a small DC motor set to a timer. It automatically rotates and rinses the bowl 3 times a day to keep the water fresh and clean.

Automatic water bowl for my dogs

I originally used an automated ball valve to drain the water bowl daily, but sand and other debris would eventually get trapped and seized the valve. I tried different valve designs and most would fail after a few months. I came across the spring-return A/C damper motor on eBay for $50 and use it to drain the bowl with gravity.
wow
Freaking Awesome
SELL THESE!!!!
He would use as much water to spray the bowl clean with the hose, probably more, anyone figure out how to build this?
That’s incredible.
Mate you should patent this and start selling it
Where can I buy this Bowl ?
Robert Wen has thrown down the gauntlet! The challenge is to science the shxt out of an automatic watering bowl! #MarkWatney
Where do I find that EXACT setup? Take my money now!!
lol just open hole at bottom, thisis stupid
At first i thought that the bowl was not installed properly, but after a while i understand the whole idea. I was searching for an automatic waterer, but i have not seen anywhere the tilt system with the fresh water!!!!👍🐾🍀
Genius! Can you make another video with the details on how you made this?
plz
I have a Newfoundland. Do you have a parts list? Please i need this.
You might wanna patent that little rotator and sell it on Amazon to go with that bowl
maybe a better solution is: turn all the way to its side then turn on water stream for its cleaning cycle and save water. dont have one to try out
Ingenious. This is exactly what Ive been dreaming of. No. More. Slobber. Water. You should sell these. ❤️🐶❤️
Brilliant.
Nice idea!
lol I thought it was a toilet at first
How u did the hole o the water feeder
I think wasted too much water ,,.
My wife said you should call this, "fills and spills" auto water bowl...
That is a genius idea. I have been trying to think of a way to get fresh cold water into the bowl. After the line sits the water gets warm in the line so I installed a drain on a ball valve and I would just let water run for 20 seconds until it was ice cold and then drain and fill water bowl. This would solve both problems of rinsing out bowl and running warm water out of the line. Where would I be without TH-cam?
I caught myself tilting my phone to encourage that last little bit to get out 😂 what was I thinking?
LOL😂😂
😬😂
Omg. Your comment was the first one and I started laughing my ass off cause I did the same thing. Good one.
Me too! 😂😂😂
Genius
Waste of water
Not really the same. Amount or less you would. Use to clean it manually
Will you sell one?
Do you have part # to the dc motor and timer
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👍
Super idea! What kind of hose did you buy? I can't seem to find a hose that fits or that doesn't leak when connected to the waterer...
Links to parts please
I inherited an 11yr old male English Mastiff and know exactly what a mess their bowl can become. great vid and great imagination to fix the problem.
does anyone know what is turning it? great product btw
It's just a DC motor. Could've been for anything. Open a gate or anything. He just mounted his bowl onto the shaft and set it to a timer. Very simple yet super smart idea. He might beable to change the length of time that it takes to make a rotation thus rinsing the bowl longer.
I thought this was a great idea. no matter what valve I used, they all clogged with dog debris and then water would leak 24/7 until I cleaned the valve once again. I did a few modifications to this though: I used a damper motor off amazon (Honeywell model # RZ3-1M for 65 dollars), a 120v/ to 24vdc transformer ( Veho # MS-75-24 for 33 dollars), and a digital timer (nearpow T329C) for about 20 dollars. I also chose to hook up my dog's bowl to the hose, then instead of putting the hose up into the pvc like here, I attached the hose to the bottom of the pvc with a fitting, and now the pipe is part of the drain instead of just holding the hose. I also put my damper motor inside the garage for weatherproofing, and just have a rod go through a vent, no damage. I put the exact items so anyone wanting to make this could find them easily, I have used these parts and they are easy to use, reliable, and it doesn't take a tech guru. Good luck, I hope this helps!(and thank you to Mr. Wen for posting this idea, it really made things easy for me, thank you sir!) N
Wasted water. There are people in.....??? That need water. Blah blah blah blah blah
Well where do you purchase this?
Wish I could post a “Well look at the MF’er right here” gif. This is cool as hell.
I love this idea because my dog gets all her dog food in the bottom like your first video, but instead of having that pipe on the timer, i would of used a pond/swimming pool valve so that the timer thing opened the valve to let the water out then shut it again 👍😏
Awe! almost............rooting for the last bits to get washed out. Cool invention!
Right? I just wanted to reach in and flick it out!🤣
@@10lizzard 👍🤣
good for ducks
I was just thinking how I need this for my geese, ducks AND slobbery dogs!
Itna dog ne piya nahin jitna baad main saaf karney ke chakkar main water waste kar diya is liye👎👎👎👎
Wievers see that the wastage of too much water👎👎👎👎
No it doesn't, he would have to throw the water out anyways since it's full of dog slobber and particles.
Ok wait , come on tell me where u bought this or how you made it.
Shut up and take my money!!!! Where can I get one at?
how and where can it be purchased?
Genious!
how can I obtain the part that tilts I like your idea better other then the other link you be giving to the other guys
Do you have a website of your motor of part number ?
Thirsty dog!
