Abstract: An inhalation therapy enclosure includes a base with end walls joined by a rear wall. A cover having two panels joined perpendicularly is hinged to the top of the rear wall. When lowered, the cover forms an enclosure with the end wall, rear wall and base. Latches secure the cover to the base. A port in one end wall allows introduction of nebulized medication or anesthesia while a port of equal size in the opposing end wall allows exhaust from the enclosure.
Abstract: A plant pot having a wider base than throat and which can be vertically separated into two substantially identical pieces is provided. The plant pot preferably comprises a first pot member and a second pot member that are capable of engaging and disengaging each other. Complementary edges on the first pot member and the second pot member allow such members to define a substantially continuous inner wall when the first pot member and the second pot member are engaged. At least one retainer extends about an outer surface of the plant pot to retain the first pot member and the second pot member in an engaged position. In one embodiment, the first pot member and the second pot member are identical such that they are manufactured from the same mold thereby reducing manufacturing costs and simplifying production of such plant pot.
Abstract: A weight sensitive squirrel proof bird feeder with multiple perch rods. In general, a feed reservoir includes perch rods positioned generally perpendicular to an outer surface of the feed reservoir. When a predetermined weight is placed upon the perches, the perches rotate about their longitudinal axis by a motor thereby expelling the source of the weight, typically squirrels or other undesirable animals from the perches.
Abstract: A floral arranging vase cover provides enhanced decoration and for supporting floral arrangements within a vase. The floral arranging cover includes a circular ring, inner bands and outer bands. Preferably, the floral arranging cover includes four to twelve inner bands which are arcuate in shape and have first and second ends which rotatably affix to the circular ring. The outer bands are also arcuate in shape and include first and second ends which attach to the circular ring. Preferably, the outer bands project outwardly from the ring and are arranged in an overlapping manner. Moreover, the outer bands are preferably affixed to adjacent bands to prevent their rotation about the circular ring. The floral arranging cover is placed upon a vase with the circular ring substantially adjacent to the vases' rim. The inner bands project inwardly to form a grid-like structure having openings for floral and plant stems.
Abstract: An air freshening apparatus comprises a plant pot-shaped main body, an end cap body and a scent-emitting composition. The plant pot-shaped main body has a cavity therein defining an open end portion of the plant pot-shaped main body and a closed end portion of the plant pot-shaped main body. The scented air passage extends through the closed end portion of the plant pot-shaped main body. The end cap body is rotatably mounted on an exterior portion of the plant pot-shaped main body. The end cap body has a scented air passage extending therethrough and the end cap body is movable between a position where the scented air passages are at least partially aligned and a position where the scented air passages are fully misaligned. The scent-emitting composition is disposed within the cavity of the plant pot-shaped main body.
Abstract: A watering and transport device for plants, with a rectangular base platform, at each of the four corner regions of which is disposed, perpendicularly thereto, a support socket, in each of which is received a frame strut in a vertical position and provided with a longitudinal slot and insertion recesses, wherein the frame struts can be received in the support sockets either in a transport position or in a storage position, which is rotated by comparison thereto, and wherein a number of storage platforms are stacked one on top of the other the base platform, said storage platforms each having, in corner regions, a mounting member which has an insertion end portion ending freely, and wherein an upper rim portion of each support socket is located at such a height above the base platform that there is a vertical space between it and the insertion end portions of a bottom storage platform, so that the latter do not rest on the support sockets bearing a load.

Abstract: A collapsible cage/crate for pets having an inner framework within a soft-sided shell. The internal framework is integrated and manipulated by two locking hubs such that when the hubs are unlocked and urged towards each other, the crate collapses. In its deployed configuration, the crate provides an area for an animal to be confined whereas when the crate is collapsed the crate is compact and easy to transport. The outer shell of the crate is formed of fabric and includes one or more mesh panels in order to provide airflow into and out of the crate. Access is gained to the interior of the crate through one or more doors.
Abstract: A animal trailer with corral panels system for efficiently transporting and retaining fence panels on a trailer. The animal trailer with corral panels system includes a trailer, a plurality of rear brackets, front brackets and supports. The trailer can be any general horse trailer used for transporting horses or other animals. A first rear bracket and a second rear bracket are mounted on the sides of the trailer, rearward of the trailer wheel wells. A first front bracket and second front bracket are similarly mounted forward of the trailer wheel wells spaced accordingly from the rear brackets in order to receive the fence panels. A rear support and a front support are additionally mounted to the sides of the trailer, utilized with straps to secure the fence panels to the trailer.
