Abstract: A single or multiple drapery track and mounting bracket therefor. A cooperating locking latch is provided for mounting the track to the bracket quickly and without using tools. The track has a longitudinal bead along one edge and a dependant wall spaced therefrom. The dependant wall has an outer inclined face having at least one longitudinal notch. The mounting bracket is generally L-shaped, the horizontal leg carrying a downwardly opening curl of size and configuration to receive the bead. The other leg has an inwardly canted strut or tongue of limited resilience. The mounting bracket is first installed on a vertical wall and the longitudinal bead of the support engaged within the curl. The track is pivoted toward the horizontal leg of the bracket forcibly flexing the tongue until it is tightly engaged within the notch. To dismount the track, the tongue is manually flexed until free of the notch and then, the track is pivoted in the reverse direction until free of the bracket.

Abstract: A granular food dispensing machine capable of being operated by a domestic animal and having a housing with a faceplate and a discharge chute having an entrance adjacent to the interior of the faceplate, and a food supply reservoir mounted upon the housing to create a gravity flow of food into the chute is provided with a metering device for controlling the flow of food into the chute. The metering device has a hopper portion coextensive with the chute entrance and mounted to the faceplate interior at the entrance for axial rotation between a first holding position and a second discharge position. A spring-biased, animal-operated reciprocating actuator is engaged to the hopper through the faceplate to control the amount of food which is discharged.

Abstract: A granular food dispensing machine having a housing with a dispensing chamber, a metering dispensing unit and a discharge chute, a food supply reservoir designed to supply the dispensing chamber by gravity feed, and a dispenser chamber insert located in the dispensing chamber to facilitate and direct the flow of granular food from the reservoir through the metering dispensing unit and out the discharge chute by preventing the food from becoming trapped in the dispensing chamber.

Abstract: A combination stop plug and open frame member for installation in the channel of a drapery track. The plug and frame parts are integrally formed. The plug part is sized and configured to be installed by sliding through an open end of the channel and immobilized in the channel by means of an accessible fastener, such as a set screw. The frame part is located exterior of the channel for accomodating therethrough a drapery fastener holder of a drapery carrier member slidable in the channel. However, the frame part prevents movement of the carrier member by engaging the fastener holder part extending therethrough. The device of the invention can be installed to close the open end of the channel with the fastener holder part located to hold a portion of the drapery panel overlying the open end of the channel.
