Abstract: In one aspect, the present invention provides a wireless power supply having a plunger for mechanically interconnecting a remote device with the power supply. The plunger may be extendable/retractable to interfit with the remote device. In a second aspect, the present invention provides a wireless power supply with a movable primary that allows for close alignment between the primary and the secondary when the remote device is disposed within a range of different positions with respect to the charging surface. The movable primary may, for example, be coupled to the remote device by a peg, a plunger or a magnet. Alternatively, the position of the movable primary may be adjusted manually. In a third aspect, the present invention provides a charging bowl having a plurality of charging stations disposed about a common axis. Each charging station may include a movable primary that permits some freedom in positioning of the remote device on the charging surface.

Abstract: The current invention is an apparatus that can be used by hunters or slaughterhouses to reduce the risk of contamination during evisceration of an animal.
Abstract: An improved apparatus and method for eviscerating scallops and other shellfish is provided which includes a cylindrical drum having side walls formed from a plurality of rollers mounted between a pair of rims which define the longitudinal ends of the drum. A drive mechanism is provided for rotating adjacent rollers to rotate in opposite directions. Each of the rollers has a frictional surface to allow adjacent rollers to grip the viscera and pull it from the edible muscle as the rollers are rotated. A drive mechanism is also provided for rotating the drum about its longitudinal axis. To divide the drum into a plurality of sections to ensure sufficient contact of the scallops being cleaned with the viscera removing rollers and to allow the capacity of the drum to be maximized, radial plates are mounted within the drum and are rotated with it.
