摘要:
A programmable automatic feeder for pets and other animals dispenses a measured amount of food at a predetermined time. A digital clock control mechanism, including an adjustable portion control knob, controls the energization of a battery-operated motor. The motor drives an eccentric weight to vibrate a vibrating conveyor pan attached to the motor. The vibrating conveyor pan is resiliently mounted on a fixed plate secured within the housing, and the vibrating conveyor pan is disposed below the open bottom portion of a hopper disposed within the housing. When the vibrating conveyor pan is vibrated, the food is dispensed rearwardly off the pan and into a curved chute. The food falls down the chute and is accessible to the animal through an opening in the front wall of the housing.

An irrigation gravel guard is disclosed comprising a ring shaped support having a substantially conical shaped screen means secured thereto and extending therefrom. One end of the screen means is open and is secured to the ring shaped support by welding or the like. The other end of the screen means is rolled or crimped upon itself to substantially close the other end thereof except for the perforations extending therethrough. An extension screen for use with the gravel guard is also disclosed and comprises a pair of spaced apart ring shaped supports having a truncated conical shaped screen means secured thereto and extending therebetween. The extension may be welded to the end of the gravel guard so as to effectively increase the over-all length thereof.
