Pet spray training system
View Patent ↗An pet spray training system is provided. The system includes a sound, vibration or motion sensor that is configured to generate electrical signals in response to an occurrence. The system may include a filter, which is tuned to recognize a dog barking event, and generate an electrical signal in response to recognizing an input signal indicative of a dog's bark. The system further includes a removably pressurized gas reservoir that holds a deterrent fluid under pressure. The system additionally comprises a motor module configured to rotate a shaft in response to the electrical signal from the filter. The canister has a spray nozzle for releasing fluid that affects the dog's senses. In response to rotating the shaft, the spray nozzle is depressed.
1. A pet spray training system, comprising:
a receiver housing having an internal gas reservoir holding chamber;
a sensor configured to produce electrical output signals in response to the sensing of a bark;
an electrical circuit electrically coupled to the sensor, the electrical circuit processes the electrical output signals from the sensor to determine whether the sensor has sensed the bark of a dog;
a motor electrically coupled to the electrical circuit;
a battery electrically coupled to the motor;
a mechanical assembly coupled to the motor;
a pressurized gas reservoir containing a bark deterrent fluid under pressure, the pressurized gas reservoir being removably mounted within the internal gas reservoir holding chamber, the pressurized gas reservoir having a gas reservoir housing, a nozzle, and a release valve in fluid communication with the nozzle and actuateable by the mechanical assembly upon actuation of the motor, wherein a tubular plunger is mechanically coupled to the mechanical assembly, wherein the tubular plunger comprises a channel there through extending from a plunger bottom opening to a plunger top opening, and wherein the nozzle of the pressurized gas reservoir is mounted within the plunger bottom opening.
2. The pet spray training system of claim 1 wherein the pressurized gas reservoir includes a gas reservoir circuit which is configured to record the number of actuations of the pet spray training system.
3. The pet spray training system of claim 2 wherein the gas reservoir circuit also records the duration of the actuation of the pet spray training system.
4. The pet spray training system of claim 1 wherein the plunger is mounted for reciprocal movement relative to the receiver housing, and wherein the inward movement of the plunger actuates the release valve.
5. The pet spray training system of claim 1 , wherein the gas reservoir housing includes a tubular valve mount configured to receive the release valve therein.
6. The pet spray training system of claim 1 , wherein the gas reservoir housing includes a nozzle opening there through, and wherein the nozzle extends through the nozzle opening of the gas reservoir housing.
