Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for a food delivery and feeding. An apparatus may comprise: a base; an ejection device configured to eject, via a food outlet on the apparatus, one or more of a plurality of food items; and a rotation device operably mounted to the ejection device. The rotation device may be configured to rotate the ejection device relative the base to cause a change to a direction of ejection of the one or more of the plurality of food items relative to the base. The rotation device may comprise a motor and a ring gear. The motor may be connected to the ring gear. The ring gear may be connected to a bracket assembly. The rotation of the bracket assembly may cause the rotation of the ejection device.

Livestock feeders are provided. A livestock feeder can include a base, hopper and lid. The livestock feeder is suitable for providing feedstuffs such as nutritional supplements to a livestock animal on a free-choice basis. The livestock feeder can be durable, portable, non-corrosive and is designed to minimize spillage of feedstuffs and resist tipping over. The livestock feeder can be constructed from a molded polyethylene material.

An improved hog/livestock feeder uses a bump cone on a pendulum swivel as opposed to rotary motion. A support structure suspends a feed hopper directly above a feed pan. A bump cone swings with a pendulum motion within a funnel in the hopper. The lower edge of the bump cone is accessible between the open bottom of the hopper and the upper rim of the feed pan, such that when an animal nudges the bump cone, a gap between the hopper funnel and bump cone widens, and feed falls from the hopper and into the feed pan. The device enabling the bump cone to swing a pendulum motion may be a spring, a multi-axis joint, or a length of flexible material. A raised feed diverter structure may extend upwardly from the bottom of the feed pan, and the bump cone may be perforated to further distribute the feed.

An animal feed trough that includes a base having a triangular configuration defined by a central ridge extending along a length of the base, tapering downwardly and outwardly from the central ridge to define a plurality of feed dishes extending along the length of the base. A body having a side wall panel and opposing, spaced-apart end caps defining an interior for storing a supply of grain is adapted for being mounted on and supported by the base and having an open bottom for gravity flow of grain from the body onto the base and into the plurality of feed dishes. An opening is provided in the body for introducing grain into the interior of the body, and a lid panel is provided for covering and closing the opening in the body.

A food and water dispensing assembly for pets including a food dispensing assembly, a water dispensing assembly, a storage assembly and a water draining assembly is disclosed. The food dispensing assembly holds and stores food. It continuously dispenses food in order to avoid food supplies getting low. The water dispensing assembly holds and stores water. It continuously dispenses water in order to avoid water levels ever declining. Thereby allowing the pet to be fed and provided water even when unsupervised. The water draining assembly is essential as it prevents overflow of water from the water assembly to ever occur. Any overflow of water in the system is disposed of through the water draining assembly, which aids in avoiding water damage that may result from water overflow due to a structural failure of the water dispensing system or otherwise. The water draining assembly is crucial to prevent emergency situations from arising.

A dispenser for animals, adapted to dispensing water, potable liquids, granulated solids and other flowable consumables for consumption thereof, allows stable transport when belt mounted on a person of a user. Optionally, the dispenser can include one or more supplemental storage/dispensing portions mountably receivable to, or integral with, a tray portion of the dispenser.

Techniques for automatic feeder apparatuses with adjustable rationing for multiple animals are disclosed herein. An example apparatus may include a hopper and a feeder housing. The feeder housing may include a first portion that is coupled to the hopper. The first portion may include a motor assembly that is configured to distribute contents stored within the hopper. The feeder housing may also include a second portion that is disposed below the first portion. The second portion may include at least a first compartment and a second compartment. Additionally, the second portion may include an interior panel that separates the first compartment and the second compartment. The interior panel may be configured to translate between a first side and a second side of the feeder housing to adjust a first volume of the contents received by the first compartment and a second volume of the contents received by the second compartment.

An animal feeder includes a wall at least partially defining a feed storage compartment. The wall includes a layer of louvers that permit air flow to and from the feed storage compartment and a layer of mesh to prevent insects from entering the feed storage compartment.

A sensor system is described. The sensor system includes one or more sensor nodes. The sensor nodes are communicatively coupled to a server by way of a network. The sensor nodes may be communicatively coupled to the network by a cellular connection or a LoRa connection to a gateway. The sensor node may measure a variety of information associated with a transport environment, a confined animal feeding environment, or another agricultural environment.

A deer feeder chute assembly is provided. The device may include a baseplate that may be attached to an aftermarket barrel or other container for holding animal feed. A chute is disposed on one face of the baseplate, the chute having an input opening at one end and an output port disposed at an opposing end. The baseplate also includes a plurality of mounting apertures for receiving fasteners to attach the aftermarket barrel to the baseplate.
