Abstract: A rotary animal feeder that slowly, periodically discharges feed in response to temperature changes. Preferably the feeder is hung from a tree over an animal trail. A cylindrical pail stores a quantity of feed to be dispensed. Feed is drawn downwardly by gravity to an activator assembly comprising a discharge tube in fluid flow communication with the pail interior. A plurality of radially spaced apart discharge orifices are formed in the tube. A convex floor adjustably, coaxially secured within the tube mounts a rotary impeller proximate the discharge orifices. A bimetallic spring beneath the floor torsionally drives the impeller in response to temperature changes. Feed contacting the convex floor is slowly deflected outwardly towards the discharge orifices both by the shape of the convex floor plate and impeller contact. As the temperature changes the impeller slowly rotates, and feed is gently urged toward and through these orifices.

Abstract: A transformer mounting assembly is disclosed for mounting a plurality of current transformers on a wire. A pair of parallel mounting plates are positioned normal to one another with one of the mounting plates having first and second current transformers mounted on the same side of the mounting plate at the opposite end portions and the engaging mid portions of the mounting plates having a third current transformer mounted thereat with the third current transformer being at the other side of the mounting plate from that of the first and second current transformers. The opposite end portions of the other mounting plate have clamps mounted thereon with the clamps being contoured to releasably clamp the assembly to a neutral wire with the other mounting plate extending along the wire.
