  • Patent number: 5335625
    Abstract: An apparatus for dispensing a liquid feed supplement to animals in measured quantity according to an established schedule within which both quantity dispensed and times when dispensed are user definable. Liquid feed is allowed to flow from a bulk storage vessel by lowering a transfer pipe a predetermined distance into the storage vessel, thereby allowing the liquid feed to gravity flow from the storage vessel to a feeding vessel. The control of dispensing time and the quantity of liquid feed dispensed is accomplished through the use of a microcomputer which can be programmed to enable the dispensing of liquid feed for two time periods in a 24-hour cycle.
