Attachment device for an animal crate
Described are attachment devices coupleable to an animal crate having at least a portion of at least one wall formed from a mesh network having a plurality of openings. The attachment device comprising includes a base member and a spring-loaded crate attachment member coupled to the base member. The spring-loaded crate attachment member includes a first slider piece and a second slider piece. A first force is applicable to at least one of the first slider piece or the second slider piece to move the at least one of the first slider piece or the second slider piece to an insertion state. A spring force biases the at least one of the first slider piece or the second slider piece from the insertion state to an expanded state.
Pet cage
A pet companion cage is disclosed herein, has three or more rectangular metal fence panels, the rectangular metal fence panels are configured to be connected to each other on sides to form an enclosed area, wherein each rectangular metal fence panel is connected to a neighboring rectangular metal fence panel on both sides through hinges or latches. A supporting beam is provided on the top of each rectangular metal fence panel. All the supporting beams meet above a center of the pet companion cage, being fixed with a plastic member. A tarpaulin is placed over the supporting beams to cover pet cages. At least one of the rectangular metal fence panels has a feeding opening. The feeding opening has a door panel. The feeding opening is positioned on the top half of the rectangular metal fence panel.
Method and apparatus for providing welding type power
A method and apparatus for providing welding-type power includes receiving an input that may be either a single or a three phase input voltage. Three power modules, each having a single phase boost power circuit, and an output circuit process the input power. A weld output circuit receives and combines the outputs of the three power modules. An input power distribution module connects the three power modules such that each receives a unique single phase power signal. A controller controls the three power modules and the input power distribution module.
Water dispenser
A water dispenser including a body and a water outlet mechanism, the body includes a base and a supply pipe inside of the body, multiple mounting grooves set on the side of the base; the water outlet mechanism arranged on the base, including a diversion component including a diversion pipe and a diversion valve installed in a pipeline of the diversion pipe; an end of the diversion pipe is connected to the supply pipes, the other end of the diversion pipe extending into the mounting groove; a linkage component, an inner end of that connected to the valve, an outer end of that extending into the mounting groove; when the outer end of the linkage component suffers an inward force, making the valve move to conduct the water inlet chamber and the diversion chamber; and a resetting component that connects the base and the linkage component.
Bowl assembly
A bowl assembly having a bowl and a fill cup. The bowl is configured to be supported on a barrier at a first barrier side. The fill cup is configured to be supported on the barrier at a second barrier side that is opposite to the first barrier side. The fill cup and the bowl being capable of being connected together through an opening in the barrier.
Cage for laboratory animal
An animal cage includes a removable, suspended interior floor provided with a plurality of perforations formed therein. The floor creates a plenum inside the cage allowing air to flow laminarly through the perforations and liquids or liquid waste to substantially fall through the perforations in the raised floor.
Testing chamber for laboratory animals
The testing chamber for laboratory animals includes multiple testing points to provide multiple tests and testing zones within the same chamber. The testing chamber for laboratory animals provides for study, testing and assessment of cognitive and motor skills of laboratory test subjects, such as mice, rats and the like. The multiple tests performed within the testing chamber may be used for an overall characterization of the neurobehavioral activities of the test animals. The testing chamber for laboratory animals includes a housing divided into first and second zones. A beam for balance beam-style travel from the first zone to the second zone is provided. A volume of water may be contained in the first zone, and the second zone may contain platforms and ramps for the laboratory animal to travel over. A passage from the first zone to the second zone may be further provided.
WALL MOUNTED PET FEEDING SYSTEM
A system includes a wall mount adaptor that may be configured to be secured to a wall. The wall mount adaptor may have a top recessed portion disposed proximate the wall and a plurality of slots disposed on a side of the adaptor opposite the wall. A cover or back splash may include a mating adaptor having a protrusion that may extend along a wall facing side of the mating adaptor and be configured to be received by or engage with the top recess. The mating adaptor may also include a plurality of connectors or pins that extend from the wall facing side, each of the plurality of connectors or pins may be configured to be received by or engage with a respective slot.
