ABSTRACT:
An automatic pet feeder is shown, havin a flat cylinder-like feeding tray and a timer, which is a 24-hour clock. The clock has many slits at the contour of the face to stick the pins in for transferring the turning motion of the clock to the feeding tray. The feeding tray has a wheel-like carrousel inside the case, which is sectioned with separators into small feed boxes, with as many juts sticking out in even length to the center of the circle for receiving the turning motion of the clock which is placed inside the case on the floor. The feed boxes have flaps to drop the feed from the carrousel when the feed box passes over an opening which is made on the floor of the casing.
