The self-closable food container assembly for an animal with a muzzle, has a food container provided with a top opening properly sized to give the animal access to food contained in the food container. The food container assembly further has a lid tiltably mounted about a pivot axis onto the food container. The lid is movable between a closed position where the lid covers the top opening of the food container, and an open position where the lid uncovers the top opening of the food container. The lid has a front edge that is generally parallel to the pivot axis and is embossed to define an upwardly projecting cavity into which the animal may insert its muzzle to lift the lid and thereby have access to the food contained in the food container. The food container assembly further has a mechanism for returning the lid to its closed position as soon as the animal removes its muzzle from under the lid. The food container has a front upper edge that is generally parallel to the pivot axis and is embossed to define a rearwardly projecting complementary cavity contiguous to the upwardly projecting cavity of the lid when the lid is in its closed position.

Récipient alimentaire à fermeture automatique pour un animal possédant un museau, comprenant une ouverture sur le dessus assez grande pour que l'animal accède à la nourriture. Le récipient inclut un couvercle inclinable autour d'un axe de pivot. Le couvercle se déplace entre une position fermée où le couvercle couvre l'ouverture du récipient alimentaire et une position ouverte où le couvercle découvre l'ouverture. Il comprend un rebord à l'avant généralement parallèle à l'axe de pivot et estampé pour définir une cavité se prolongeant vers le haut sous laquelle l'animal peut insérer son museau de façon à soulever le couvercle et à accéder à la nourriture contenue dans le récipient. Le récipient comprend également un mécanisme pour retourner le couvercle à sa position fermée aussitôt que l'animal retire son museau de sous le couvercle. Il inclut un rebord supérieur à l'avant qui est généralement parallèle à l'axe de pivot et estampé pour définir une cavité complémentaire se prolongeant vers l'arrière contiguë à la cavité du couvercle se prolongeant vers le haut lorsque le couvercle est dans la position fermée.
