ANIMAL FOOD COVER ACTUATION DEVICE, IN PARTICULAR FOR ANIMAL FOOD CONTAINERS, AN ANIMAL FOOD DEVICE AND METHOD FOR OPERATING AN ANIMAL FOOD DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to an animal food cover actuation device (1) comprising a drive (6) which can be controlled by a control device (8) for actuating at least one cover (2) which is coupled at least indirectly to said drive, and which is used to open and/or close at least one opening (3) releasing animal food and/or liquids, in addition to an animal food device. The invention is characterised in that at least one device (9) is coupled to the control device (8) for detecting at least one variable describing, at least indirectly, an electric and/or magnetic and/or electromagnetic field in a environmental range (12) predefining the opening (3) providing the animal food. Said control device (8) is embodied and/or programmed in such a manner if the variable describing, at least indirectly, the electric and/or magnetic and/or electromagnetic field in said environmental range (12) predefining said opening (3) releasing the animal food changes, the drive (6) is controlled. The invention also relates to a animal feed device (10) and to a method for operating an animal food device (10).
