ABSTRACT:
An automatic pet feed dispenser is provided in the form of a feed drum rotated about a vertical spindle by a motor. The drum is divided into bins by vertical radial panels between a hub and the drum. Each bin is closed at the bottom by a hinged sector panel held in a horizontal position by a support panel having a sector shaped opening over a chute. The hinged sector panels drop as they move into place over the chute which directs dry feed into a tray. At the same time preheated water is added to the feed tray from a metering chamber. A cam actuated switch turns on a thermostat controlled heater and a cam operated valve drains the water into the tray. A float valve refills the metering chamber from a reservoir.
