Filed:
Oct 27, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/694250
Inventors:
Paul J. Bondarenko - Portland OR
Bryan S. Shive - Myerstown PA
Leon S. Zimmerman - Lititz PA
George S. Zimmerman - Lititz PA
Anthony Martin - Denver PA
Assignee:
CTB IP, Inc. - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
A01K 500
US Classification:
119 535, 119 574
Abstract:
An improved livestock feeder provided with an adjustable feed dispensing mechanism including control levers which are operatively connected to the feeder metering gates to control the flow of feed to livestock. The dispensing mechanism features a plurality of adjustable control levers which engage an array of indexing holes formed in the feeder to set the vertical height adjustment of the feed gates. The dispensing mechanism includes a graduated scale corresponding to each of the index holes to provide a standard setting for the feeder which can be utilized by an animal producer to supply of feed flow at a given stage in the animals life cycle to obtain a desired growth rate.

Animal Feeder With Dispensing Mechanism And Dust Cover

US Patent:
5921200, Jul 13, 1999
Filed:
Jan 14, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/007284
Inventors:
Paul J. Bondarenko - Lititz PA
Bryan S. Shive - Myerstown PA
Leon S. Zimmerman - Lititz PA
George S. Zimmerman - Lititz PA
International Classification:
A01K 500
US Classification:
119 521
Abstract:
An improved livestock feeder for use with an automatic feed delivery system having a feed drop tube operatively connected thereto for dispensing feed into a feed bin is disclosed. The improved feeder is provided with an adjustable feed dispensing mechanism including control levers which are operatively connected to the feed metering gates to control the flow of feed to livestock. The dispensing mechanism features a plurality of adjustable control levers which engage an array of indexing holes formed in the feeder to set the vertical height adjustment of the feed gates. The dispensing mechanism includes a graduated scale corresponding to each of the index holes to provide a standard setting for the feeder which can be utilized by an animal producer to supply of feed flow at a given stage in the animal's life cycle to obtain a desired growth rate. In a production facility where several of the feeders are in use a standard setting for the release of feed may be obtained to reduce variations in animal growth rate. The feeder is also provided with a removable dust cover which is installed within the feed bin to reduce airborne particles generated by the automatic feed delivery system.

Hog Feeder

US Patent:
5558039, Sep 24, 1996
Filed:
Dec 11, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/570301
Inventors:
Leon S. Zimmerman - Lititz PA
Assignee:
Staco, Inc. - Schaefferstown PA
International Classification:
A01K 500
US Classification:
119 521
Abstract:
An improved livestock feeder for use with an automatic feed delivery system having a feed drop tube operatively connected thereto for dispensing feed into a feed bin. The improved feeder features a feed drop tube holder fabricated from a flexible, resilient material which is installed intermediate the opposed side walls of the feed bin by compressing the holder lengthwise with hand pressure to effectively reduce its overall length and to allow tabs formed on the ends thereof to engage a plurality of horizontally opposed slots formed in the opposed side walls. The holder is next released and springs back to its original flat configuration so that the tabs engage the slots and the holder is retained intermediate the opposed side walls. The flexible holder includes a central opening that is adapted to loosely receive a feed drop tube associated with the automatic feed delivery system. The improved feeder also features outwardly and downwardly projecting flanges integrally formed at the upper edges of the side walls which function to protect the exposed tabs and are of sufficient strength to function as handles for lifting the feeder.

Fan Housing

US Patent:
5520509, May 28, 1996
Filed:
Dec 12, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/353730
Inventors:
Leon S. Zimmerman - Lititz PA
Assignee:
Staco, Inc. - Schaefferstown PA
International Classification:
F04D 2970
US Classification:
415121200
Abstract:
A fan housing having a peripheral wall disposed about the fan's axis of rotation. A plurality of flanges including reinforced hems are integrally formed with and extend perpendicularly of the peripheral wall toward the fan's axis of rotation. A screen fabricated from interconnected, perpendicular wire strands is coupled to the flanges by means of the reinforced hems with rigid but malleable tabs integrally formed thereon that are bent around a peripheral strand of the screen. Apertures are defined by and extend through the peripheral wall and the flanges to provide access to the tabs such that the tabs may be urged toward the flanges to secure the screen in position. The same apertures provide access to the tabs such that the tabs may be urged away from the flanges to disengage the peripheral strand from the tabs such that the screen may be removed and replaced.
