POULTRY FEEDER.
APPLICATION man JULY 18. 1914.
Patented Aug. 3, 1915.
Inventor I Attorneys Witnesses CHARLES H. STOCKING, OF AUDUBON, IOWA.
POULTRY-FEEDER.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Aug. 3, 1915.
Application filed July 18, 1914. Serial No. 851,771.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES H. S'roon- ING, a citizen of the United States, residing at Audubon, in the county of Audubon and State of Iowa, have invented anew and useful Poultry-Feeder, of which the following is a specification. I
This invention relates to a novel device for receiving and dispensing poultry feed whereby the fowl will be unable to scatter the feed about.
A further object is to providea. poultry feeder which may be dismantled or disassembled and the parts thereof nested together, allowing the same to be economically shipped in bulk.
A further object is to provide a device possessing the aforementioned characteristics and at the same time so designed and constructed as to be light in weight, simple in arrangement, and therefore subject to economical manufacture.
l/Vith the foregoing and other objects in view which will appear as the description proceeds, the invention resides in the combination and arrangement of parts and in the details of construction hereinafter described and claimed, it being understood that changes in the precise embodiment of the invention herein disclosed, can be made within the scope of what is claimed, without departing from the spirit of the invention.
In the drawings accompanying this specification and forming a. part thereof, the preferred embodiment of my invention is illustrated.
In said drawings :F igure 1 is a view in side elevation of my novel poultry feeder. Fig. 9 is a sectional view in elevation of the foregoing.
Referring to the drawings in which similar reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, a receptacle 3 is provided with the upper curled rim 4 and is preferably of tapering contour so that a number of the receptacles may be nested together to thus occupy a small space, providing for their economical shipment. A plurality of legs 5 are detachably secured to and extend externally of the receptacle 3, being secured thereto by the bolts 6. The bolts 6 extend through suitable apertures 7 and 8 formed in the said legs and receptacle side walls, thus rigidly securing the legs in place and at the same time rendering them conveniently detachable. The legs extend tacle, but it will be noted that this number may be varied as consistent with theweight to be supported and the desired stability of the device. A plurality of posts 9 are secured to and contact with the inner surface of the receptacle. The number of posts 9 corresponds to the number of legs 5, in alinement with which they are positioned. The bolts 6 which project through the legs and side walls of the receptacle also project through suitable apertures 10 in the post and thus secure the same in rigid as well as demountable relation. The posts project above the upper rim of the receptacle, and are bent as at 11 to thus define an offset upstanding portion 12 in which are provided the vertical upstanding rows of apertures 13.
A cover 1% is provided with a number of outstanding pins 15 which project within the apertures of the posts and thus adjustably mount the cover thereon. The manner of attaching and detaching the pins consists merely in flexing the arms 12 outward, allowing the pins to aline with the apertures, after which the posts are allowed to reflex, thus effecting the securement in question. The lid is of arcuate section and substantially equal in diameter to the diameter of the receptacle 3. Thus aspace S will be defined between the outer edge 16 of the cover and the rim 1 of the receptacle, which space is adjustable, allowing for the insertion of a fowls head therein, thus rendering the feed within the receptacle accessible but preventing the fowls placing their feet therein, which they seem to possess a natural propensity to do. A screen 17 may be laid upon the feed within the receptacle and thus prevents the feed from being scattered about by the bills of the fowls.
Among the many and desirable features of the foregoing structure, the vertical adjustment of the cover is particularly emphasized as it allows the device to be adj usted according to the size of the fowl. The space S is so adjusted as to accommodate the fowls head therein without inconvenience thereto, but is made sufficiently small to prevent the fowls from placing their feet therein, thus eliminating the scattering and wasting of the feed. The receptacle is purposely made liquid tight so that it may be used in the capacity of a drinking fountain if so desired. The dismoimtable manner in Which the legs and posts are secured to the receptacle allows the device to be packed to occupy but little space and the tapering contour of the receptacle allows a plurality of said receptacles to be nested together for their shipment in bulk.
Having thus fully described my invention and enumerated several of its advantages, What I claim is 1. A poultry feeder comprising a feed receptacle, spaced flexible posts upstanding therefrom, said posts being apertured, a cover interposed between the posts and above the receptacle, and projections on the cover extending into engagement With the posts.
2. A poultry feeder comprising a tapering justable relation to the said receptacle and defining a limited entrance therewith.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my oWn, I have hereto affixed my signature in the presence of tWo Witnesses.
