ABSTRACT:
An automatic pet feeder has several troughs, each with a lid hinged thereto. A T-shaped cam follower extends from each lid and rides against a cylindrical cam tube which makes a single revolution during the feeding period. I-shaped slots each extend partially around the tubular cam through a selected arc so that it underlies its associated cam follower at a desired time, wherein biasing means force the lid upward to swing the cam follower completely through the slot and hold the lid in open position.
