Abstract: A system for dispersing different sized particulate material is provided that includes a hopper configured to contain particulate material and multiple interchangeable inserts that are removably attached to an inside of the hopper. Each of the multiple of interchangeable inserts have a distinct hole pattern to facilitate the flow of different sized particulate material from inside the hopper. A dispersing mechanism is provided that disperses the particulate material flowing through the distinct the hole patterns.

Abstract: A particulate material dispensing apparatus is provided that includes a base, a collapsible hopper attached to a top of the base to hold particulate material, at least one support removably attached to the base that extends in a direction away from the top of the base such that the at least one support engages the collapsible hopper to provide a means to maintain the collapsible hopper in an upright position. The apparatus further includes a dispensing mechanism that when actuated dispenses the particulate material through the base and an impeller rotatably actuated upon actuation of the dispensing mechanism to thereby distribute the particulate material dispensed through the base.

Abstract: A motion-powered liquid sprayer that can increase the number of rotations of the pump relative to each rotation of the wheel or axle is provided. The sprayer can include a gearing assembly that employs gears to increase the number of pump revolutions as a function of the wheel or axle rotation. The sprayer can also include a gear pump that employs an over-capacity or enhanced gullet together with blow-by spacing to control consistent liquid flow relative to variable motional velocities. Further, the sprayer can include a vertically adjustable nozzle as well as a free reverse rotation wheel hub.

Abstract: There is combined with a hand pushable seeder of a type with a pair of wheels and an adjustable furrow-forming ground opener means disposed to traverse only a single common dispensing track aligned therewith a side dressing fertilizer dispenser with its own fertilizer-receiving hopper attached upon the frame of the seeder so that a fertilizer dispensing chute of the hopper is disposed to dispense the fertilizer behind the ground opener and along the single common track traversed by the wheels propelled alongside can thus dispense fertilizer alongside young growing plants germinating from seeds dispensed by the same seeder many weeks before.
