Abstract: A multi-reservoir feeding/dosing apparatus for the delivery of at least two substances in discrete form includes first and second conveying elements in which the discharge end thereof are a close fit in a discharge bushing thereby to ensure that the correct dosage of each substance is discharged on a consistent basis. Each conveying element is in its respective reservoir. At least one motor drives both conveying elements, with each rotational direction of the motor actuating a corresponding one of the conveying elements.
Abstract: An automated feeding apparatus for animals comprises an inlet hopper having a discharge outlet provided with a feeder actuable in accordance with a predetermined feeding regime, the discharge outlet being of variable size. The discharge outlet is adjustable in length and depth to enable variation of volumetric flow therethrough, with the distance between the auger and the top wall being at least the average size of the food particles.

Abstract: A dosing apparatus for the delivery of a substance in discrete form comprises a conveying element in which the discharge end thereof is a close fit in a discharge bushing thereby to ensure that the correct dosage of substance is discharged on a consistent basis. At least a portion of the conveying element located adjacent the discharge wall has a sharp edge for an easy breaking of larger particles of the feeding substance to ensure accurate dosage.
