Abstract: The present invention discloses an animal feed trough which is comprised of two inside legs, two outside legs, two sides, two ends, and a bottom, wherein the sides include end portions, wherein each of the inside legs includes a slot which extends the entire distance of the inside leg and is adapted to accommodate the end portion of one of the sides, wherein each of the outside legs includes a slot which extends the entire distance of the outside leg and is adapted to accommodate the end portion of one of the sides, wherein each inside leg includes a slot which extends the entire distance of the inside leg and is adapted to accommodate the end portion of one of the ends, wherein each outside leg includes a slot which extends the entire distance of the outside leg and is adapted to accommodate the end portion of one of the ends, and wherein each leg includes a positioning means for positioning the leg relative to one of the other legs.

Abstract: An elevated bowl stand assembly that is adaptable to attach to a tire of automobiles. The bowl stand assembly comprises a main rod member, a pair of bowls and a pair of struts. A plurality of strap members having a pair of first strap members that is attached to the main rod member and the pair of connecting rod members utilizing at least one mounting means and the pair of second strap members that is attached to the pair of connecting rod members utilizing the at least one mounting means. A horizontal supporting member is adapted to releasably hold the pair of second strap members and loop behind the tire of the automobiles. The plurality of strap members engages the main rod member to the tire thereby placing the main rod member and the pair of bowls in a suspended orientation.

Abstract: A portable livestock feeder has a frame supported by a plurality of wheels with a trailer hitch at one end. First and second feed troughs are positioned on each side of a longitudinal center of the frame with racks positioned above the troughs. The feed troughs are supported at their front ends by a first pair of pin members and at their rear ends by a second pair of pin members. The feed troughs are pivotable by a hydraulic mechanism about the pin members between a normal feeding position and a bottom dumping position. One of the pin members is movable between first and second stops that limit lateral movement of the feed troughs toward and away from the longitudinal center of the feeder. An adjustable cam member is arranged to engage another one of the pin members for causing the troughs to move between narrow and wide width settings.

Abstract: This invention is directed to troughs and more particularly to pre-cast or molded troughs made of plastic, fiberglass or other appropriate material and utilizing a novel shape whereby the trough rests on it's natural tipping point using a novel pair of stabilizers made to rest on the ground and fit into corresponding cavities on the underside of the trough to maintain an upright and stable position until tipping is desired. The unique shape makes possible the slight backward tipping of the trough, done easily by one person, so the stabilizers can be kicked away and the trough tipped forward to empty, clean and/or refill.

Abstract: A pet food feeder, comprising a connecting member coupled to a support rod, a first connecting surface vertically disposed on the connecting member, a second connecting surface vertically disposed on a containing member of a food bin, a pivotal axis and an axial hole respectively disposed on the first and second connecting surfaces respectively, such that the entire pet food feeder passing through the pivotal axis and the axial hole to combine the containing member and the support rod, and a positioning latch on the second connecting surface being extended into a fixing hole on the first connecting surface to fix an angle of elevation for the opening of the food bin. The positioning latch can be extended into other fixing hole to adjust the angle of elevation of the opening of the food bin to collect the food towards the utmost bottom of the food bin and facilitate the feeding of pets.

Abstract: A bird bath including a basin configured to receive and retain water, and a mounting a mounting assembly configured to securably mount the bird bath to a structure. The mounting assembly supports the basin and includes a mounting bracket configured to mount to the structure and a pivoting bracket pivotally secured to the mounting bracket. The basin is secured to the pivoting bracket, which is configured to pivot with respect to the mounting bracket so that the basin may move between a secured retracted position for receiving and retaining water within the basin and a fully extended position for emptying contents of the basin.
