A corner unit for a feed conveying system includes a housing and a wheel. The housing defines a cavity and a track. The track is configured to receive a material conveying string. The wheel is disposed at least partially within the cavity of the housing and is configured to rotate within the cavity. The housing includes a plurality of ridges protruding into the cavity. The wheel includes a central hub, an outer rim, and one or more spokes extending from a first end coupled to the central hub to a second end coupled to the outer rim. At least one of the one or more spokes is swept such that, when the wheel is rotated in a first direction, the second end trails the first end such that rotation of the wheel in the first direction sweeps material that enters the cavity from the cavity and into the track.

The invention Birdfeeder Camera Attachment develops a portable way of attracting birds to a camera. Embodiments of the invention consist of a tripod mount with a bowl or tray for feeding birds which has its own camera mount attached to it as well as possible counterweights. The invention acts as a field portable birdfeeder with camera mounts attached that can be set up on conventional camera tripods.

The application discloses an automatic feeding device for poultry. The automatic feeding device poultry comprises a holding barrel and a feeding port; the holding barrel is provided with an accommodating cavity capable of being used for accommodating feedstuff, and a side surface of the holding barrel is provided with an installing hole, the installing hole is communicated with the accommodating cavity; the feeding port is installed in the installing hole, an input end of the feeding port faces downwards and hangs in the accommodating cavity, and an output end of the feeding port extends outwards out of the holding barrel. By arranging the feeding port, the feedstuff is injected into the accommodating cavity and is automatically squeezed to the output end under the action of gravity when in use, so that the feedstuff is eaten by poultry, and does not need to be scattered on the ground.

An electric shock system for a bird feeding device includes a main body having a top wall, a side wall, and a bottom wall with an opening. A battery holder is disposed within the main body and retains a battery. A conductor array is positioned between the battery holder and the side wall and is connected to the battery.

A bird feeder comprises an inner housing including a seed reservoir having at least one feed port defined therethrough, and an inner base supporting the seed reservoir. An outer housing of the feeder is moveably mounted to the inner housing, and includes a reservoir cover arranged over the seed reservoir and defining at least one feed opening. The outer housing is moveable relative to the inner housing between a first position and a second position. A tension spring is operatively connected between the inner housing and a base of the outer housing for biasing the outer housing into the first position relative to the inner housing.

A light fixture attached to an elongate tubular structure includes a baseplate having a pair of tabs extending from its opposing edges. A printed circuit board (PCB) attached to the baseplate has an aperture aligned with an aperture in the baseplate. An array of light emitting diodes (LEDs) are disposed on the PCB. A mounting bracket attached to the baseplate includes a strap and a pair of clips disposed at its opposite ends. Each clip engages one of the tabs to secure the mounting bracket to the baseplate. A pair of clamp arms extend from the strap and engage an arcuate central portion having a curvature that matches the curvature of the elongate tubular structure. An aperture passes through the strap that is aligned with the baseplate aperture. A power cable passes through the strap aperture, the baseplate aperture, and the PCB aperture. The power cable includes power wires that are electrically connected to the PCB for providing power to the LEDs. A protective cover protects the baseplate and the PCB, and provides for transmission of light from the LEDs.
