Abstract: Techniques for automatic feeder apparatuses with adjustable rationing for multiple animals are disclosed herein. An example apparatus may include a hopper and a feeder housing. The feeder housing may include a first portion that is coupled to the hopper. The first portion may include a motor assembly that is configured to distribute contents stored within the hopper. The feeder housing may also include a second portion that is disposed below the first portion. The second portion may include at least a first compartment and a second compartment. Additionally, the second portion may include an interior panel that separates the first compartment and the second compartment. The interior panel may be configured to translate between a first side and a second side of the feeder housing to adjust a first volume of the contents received by the first compartment and a second volume of the contents received by the second compartment.

Abstract: Clip devices contemplated herein comprise a metal-containing base, wherein the base comprises a lower clip body and an upper clip body, and wherein the lower clip body further comprises at least two sets of electrically conducting wire springs. Contemplated electrically conducting wire springs comprise at least one non-contact body section and a plurality of contact points.
