Claims20
An animal feeder comprising a support, a container mounted on such support for movement relative thereto and adapted to contain food particles in bulk, cooperating means on said support and said container for limiting the extent of movement of said container to movement back and forth relative to said support to a predetermined restricted degree, means on and extending from said container which, when manually physically displaced over a given distance and then released, causes said container to move within said limited extent, said container having a first opening through which food particles are inserted into said container and a second opening spaced from said first opening from which food particles escape from said container when it is moved within said limited extent.
An animal feeder comprising a generally vertical support, a container mounted on said support for movement about an axis extending from said support and wherein said axis located above a mid-point of said container, said container being adapted to contain food particles in bulk, means on and extending from said container which when moved cause said container to move about said axis, said container having a first opening through which food particles are passed into said container, said container being spaced from said support and having a second opening at its rear through which food particles escape from said container when it is moved.
An animal feeder comprising a generally vertical support, a container mounted on said support for movement about an axis extending from said support and adapted to contain food particles in bulk, means on and extending from said container which when moved cause said container to move about said axis, said container having a first opening through which food particles are passed into said container, said container being spaced from said support and having a second opening at its rear generally facing said support through which food particles escape from said container when it is moved.
An animal feeder comprising a support having an upstanding support wall, an axis extending out from said wall, a container adapted to contain food particles in bulk, said container being mounted on said axis for rotation thereabout to at least a limited degree and having a container wall facing and spaced from said support wall, said container having a first opening through which food particles are inserted into said container and a second opening spaced from said first opening from which food particles escape from said container when it is rotated about said axis, said second opening being located in said container wall facing said support wall.
