Pet watering apparatus

Abstract

Methods and systems for a leak stop valve system in a pet water bowl system are described. For example, the leak stop valve system includes a housing and a valve assembly within the housing configured to be connected to a water supply line from outside the housing. A valve mechanism is present within the valve assembly, the valve mechanism being operable to detect water within the housing and to shut off the water supply when water is detected within the housing. Additionally, a mechanical indicator mechanism is configured to activate in response to the valve mechanism detecting water within the housing to indicate when the valve mechanism is in a closed position, wherein the mechanical indicator moves from a position within the housing to a position at least partially protruding from the housing when activated.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
