Abstract: A hygienic slow feeding bowl includes a container and a set of dividers disposed within said container. Each divider incorporates conic spikes extending away from one or two side surfaces of the divider. The side surfaces are flat or curved. The divider also includes a set of fasteners for attaching the divider to an inner wall of the container. The spaces between the dividers are adapted to receive pet food. The pet food rests on the bottom surface of the inner wall. The dividers can be removably attached to the inner wall. The container also includes a base and an outer wall extending upward from the base. The outer wall can be slanted or straight upward. The inner wall and the outer wall merge at a top edge forming a top opening of the cavity enclosed by the inner wall.

Abstract: A hygienic pulling waste collector includes a frame with a leg, two frame arms coupled to the leg, a frame handle coupled to the leg, a rod coupled to the two frame arms, and two claws rotatably coupled to the rod and also attached to the two frame arms. The collector also includes a puller assembly having a puller handle, a puller frame, two puller arms coupled to the puller frame and attached to the two claws, and a spring coupled to the puller frame and the rod. The collector further includes a first locking member mounted to the leg, and a second locking member unevenly mounted to the rod. The puller frame is adapted to move inside the cavity disposed the leg. The first and second locking members each include a cover made of flexible material and incorporate a through cut.

Abstract: A waste collector comprises a handle assembly, a receptacle, a lid pivotally attached to the receptacle, a yoke operatively coupled to a shaft of the handle assembly, and a set of locking members. The yoke is pivotally attached to the receptacle. The lid incorporates a guiding channel for receiving the shaft. The receptacle incorporates a downward lip. A subset of the locking members is attached to walls of the receptacle and another subset of the locking members is attached to the yoke. Each locking member incorporates a set of through cuts. The set of through cuts creates a corresponding set of leaves. Each leave within the set is flexible and adapted to extend away from the corresponding locking member when a force is applied. When the force is released, the leaf intends to retain its original form.

Abstract: A lobby pan comprises a receptacle having a substantially flat bottom wall of a generally rectangular shape, a rear wall extending transversely from the bottom wall and having a first height, a front wall extending transversely from the bottom wall in substantially the same direction as the rear wall and having a second height that is less than the first height, and a pair of side walls that extend in the same direction as the rear wall and are connected to the rear wall and the front wall so as to form a continuous edge that defines an aperture into the receptacle. The front wall and rear wall are separated by a suitable distance, as are the side walls. In addition, a wash port is disposed on the exterior of the lobby pan so as to enable the interior of the receptacle to be easily washed.

Abstract: System and method are provided wherein a physician uses a handheld terminal to tap and select a prescription. At the time of writing the prescription, the terminal has information regarding the patient's drug insurance benefits (formulary compliance), as well as other patient medical history such as medications that the patient may currently be taking (drug utilization review) and any allergies. This patient information may be provided to the terminal from a database through the Web, a modem or an access point. Using this information the physician is able to provide the optimal patient prescription. The terminal has capabilities for voice recognition, biometric identification and GPS locator so that the prescribing physician's identity and location can be positively identified.
