Abstract: A system for cooling a canister has first, second and third heat pipes. The first heat pipe has an evaporator and a condenser. The first heat pipe is mounted with its evaporator inside the canister and its condenser outside the canister. The second heat pipe has an evaporator conductively coupled to the condenser of the first heat pipe. The second heat pipe has a condenser. The third heat pipe has an evaporator conductively coupled to the condenser of the second heat pipe. The third heat pipe has a condenser with a plurality of fins on the condenser of the third heat pipe.

Abstract: An industrial scale including a plurality of tension mounted load cells disposed along and spaced outwardly from the longitudinal side of the weighing platform. Retractable support structures are spaced along the longitudinal sides of the weighing platform and when in the extended position such support structures are connected to the lower ends of load cells which depend from platform mounting brackets.

Abstract: A feeding apparatus for nursing animals such as calves and the like which includes a frame having longitudinally extending frame members mounted on A-shaped end supports with transversely extending rods arranged in spaced-apart parallel relationship to define stall areas in side-by-side relationship on opposite sides of the frame, a nursing bottle retainer being provided on the frame members adjacent the front of each stall area on both sides of the frame for removeably supporting a nursing bottle in a downwardly inclined position for access by an animal in the stall area together with a longitudinally extending removeable bar supported on the ends of the rods on each side of the frame for retaining the nursing animal in its respective stall area.
