Abstract: An oral chew for toothed animals including at least one outer stabilizing structure and at least one inner stabilizing structure said inner stabilizing structure substantially supporting one or more mesh segments exposed through one or more openings through said outer stabilizing structure to chewing and/or grasping by an animal. The mesh supported within the interstice between the outer stabilizing structure and the inner stabilizing structure and rubbing against an animal's teeth and/or gums during chewing or grasping with oral surfaces.

Abstract: An apparatus for palletizing a plurality of objects, for example bottle packs or containers, is provided. A conveying and sorting system to form an ordered set of objects is provided. A handling system having a support column and movably arranged thereon a first handling member suitable to handle the ordered set of objects from a discharge position of the conveying and sorting system to a pallet arranged at a workstation is provided. A handling system having a support column and movably arranged thereon a second handling-suitable to handle a pallet from a pallet stack to the workstation and/or a cardboard flap from a respective stack to said workstation is provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for palletizing a plurality of objects, such as, e.g., bottle packs or other containers. Particularly, a palletizing plant (1) comprising: a conveying and sorting system (2) of a plurality of objects to form an ordered set of objects; a handling system (3) wherein said handling system (3) is composed of a support column (10) on which there are movably arranged: a first handling member (11) suitable to handle the ordered set of objects from a discharge position (9) of the conveying and sorting system (2) to a pallet (P) arranged at a workstation (4); a second handling member (12) suitable to handle a pallet (P) from a pallet stack (5) to the workstation (4) and/or a cardboard flap (F) from a respective stack (6) to said workstation (4) is provided.

Abstract: An apparatus for safely attaching one or more animals to a vehicle and enabling a human being to control an animal hands-free while she concentrates on operating the vehicle. The apparatus stretches to mitigate energetic movements, and the stretching does not terminate abruptly, thereby reducing the prospect of injury to a vehicle operator and/or to an attached animal.

Abstract: An apparatus for holding and dispensing items is provided including first and second walls defining a pocket, first and second sealing elements removable attached to each other for accessing the pocket, and a fastening element for attaching the apparatus to a carrying device. The fastening element, first and second sealing elements, and first and second walls are one integral piece of material. The fastening element attaches the apparatus to the carrying device by wrapping around the carrying device so that the first and second walls and the first and second sealing elements pass through a loop created by the wrapped fastening element.
