Rotary auger support
A rotary auger support for mounting and removably holding a articles or devices upright on the ground. The includes an upright rod with a helical coil comprising a rectangular or square cross section defining flights forming an auger base having a point at the lower distal end to be fixedly and removably screwed into the ground to support the in an upright position.

Portable deer and livestock feeder
A portable feed is provided with a frame having a tow hitch, a plurality of wheels and a storage bin. The portable feeder can be towed from a feeder location to a refill station and refilled. A variably sloped floor extending through the storage bin and each feeder chute provides for the continuous flow of feed to the chutes for on demand feeding without substantial spillage from the open ends of the feeder chutes. A lower chute surface is pivotable relative to an upper chute surface so that the lower chute surface is movable relative to the upper chute surface in a clamshell-like closure.
SCENT EMITTING DART
A scent emitting dart for dispersing an olfactant in the target area without having to physically enter the target area includes an elongated, textured shaft member that has a proximal end and a distal end, a tip member which includes a weighted portion and a tip portion integral with the distal end, and a scent carrying fletching integral having a plurality of absorbent vanes adjacent to the proximal end. The absorbent vanes both extend outwardly from the circumference of the shaft member to provide aerodynamic stabilization and also extend behind the shaft member to both increase the olfactant absorption capacity of the fletching and provide an accessible point of concentration for applied olfactant. In this regard, as the olfactant is emitted from the fletching, a hunted animal can be drawn thereto.
DEVICE FOR CREATING AND DISTRIBUTING VAPORIZED SCENT
A scent vaporizing and distribution device uses an electric heating element to rapidly vaporize a liquid scent material. An airflow generator is used to create a distribution airflow that distributes the vapor from the device. The airflow generator can be an electric-powered fan or a manually-powered pump or squeezable bladder. The liquid scent material can include a glycol or a water-glycol mixture. A scent material such as liquid or powdered deer urine or a pleasant scent that can be used as a room or automobile or room freshener is mixed with the liquid. The vapor generator can be removable and replaceable such that different scents can be used with a single airflow generator or an empty generator can be replaced.
HUNTING VEST WITH A GAME CALL POUCH BUILT INTO A POCKET
A pocket may be attached to a front surface of a hunting vest. The pocket may have a pocket flap that, when released by a zipper, rotates about a lower edge of the pocket flap attached to the front surface of the hunting vest. The pocket flap may rotate between a substantially vertical position when the pocket is closed and a substantially horizontal position when the pocket is open. When the pocket is open and the pocket flap is in the horizontal position, one or more game calls stored in a corresponding one or more game call pouches may be accessed by the hunter with a single hand. Each game call pouch may have a first aperture for inserting and removing the game call and a second different aperture allowing the hunter to pull a striker against the game call to produce a desired sound. A sound passing aperture, opposite the game call pouch, may allow sound from the game call to exit the pocket. A sound passing mesh may cover each sound passing aperture to keep the game call(s) and striker(s) in the pocket, while keeping leaves and dirt out of the pocket.
Modular device and system for deterring birds
The present disclosure describes a device which is able to detect and deter wildlife. The present solution provides for a modular system which can have various modules received in a module housing and those modules can be replaced without the need for the device to be serviced by the manufacturer or a certified repair technician.
Wireless notification systems and methods for electronic rodent traps
A remote notification electronic rodent trapping system and method is provided having a plurality of rearming electronic rodent trapping devices configured to wirelessly communicate trap information to a base station that is in communication with a cloud server. When a trap is activated by a rodent trigger it changes from a set state to a kill alert state and initiates a killing cycle. The trap waits a first time period and then sends a notification signal to the base station of trap activation which the base station forwards to the cloud server. The cloud server waits a second predetermined time period before sending a pushed notification to a remote user of the trap's kill alert state. If the trap rearms prior to expiration of the second time period, it alerts the base station which notifies the cloud server. The cloud server updates trap status to the set state and does not send a notification to the user.
Image processing sensor systems
An image processing sensor system functions as a standalone unit to capture images and process the resulting signals to detect objects or events of interest. The processing significantly improves selectivity and specificity of detection objects and events in a series of motions that may precede a patient who is at elevated risk of falling.
Rotary auger support stand
A rotary auger support stand for mounting and removably holding a articles or devices upright on the ground. The stand includes an upright rod with a helical coil or flights forming an auger base having a point at the lower distal end to be fixedly and removably screwed into the ground to support the stand in an upright position. The top end of the rod forming the stand body defines an S-shaped loop configured, sized and shaped and disposed at a selected angle to support an article thereon. The top adapter is capable of supporting a decorative element, sign, target, or other element. An S-shaped handle is formed integrally within the support shaft longitudinal member extending from the auger.
