A feed pump includes an impeller with two rings of guide blades delimiting blade chambers. The rings of guide blades concentrically surrounding one another and have different angular intervals between guide blades. The angular intervals between the guide blades of each ring vary within a range of values and ranges of values of each ring of guide blades is different to avoid the additions of noise emissions the feed pump consequently has noises which cause particularly little disturbance.

There is described a feed mechanism for a feed table for translating sheet metal blanks from as automatic notching curling and beading machine to a bodymaker in the process of tin box manufacture. The mechanism comprises a pair of reciprocally drives longitudinal feed bars provided with spring loaded pawls in their upper surfaces which engage behind the edges of the blanks during a forward motion and slide beneath the blanks during a reverse motion. The difficulty of altering the lateral displac...

A feed pump designed as side-channel pump has a shaft for a rotationally fixed connection to an impeller. Two flattenings are arranged on the shaft so that they are nonparallel to one another. The impeller is thereby mountable on the shaft only in an intended position so that the impeller is rotated in an intended direction of rotation in a casing. The feed pump may therefore be assembled in a particularly simple way.

In an impeller of a feed pump designed as a side channel pump, each of the vane chambers are divided into two sectors which are arranged in an undercut-free design relative to a direction perpendicular to the end face of the impeller. When the impeller is manufactured from plastic by injection molding, the sectors may be produced by projections arranged on mold halves intended for the manufacture of the impeller. After the production of the impeller, the projections in the mold halves having the...

A feed pump includes two feed chambers one surrounding the other and arranged at different axial levels from an electric motor driving the feed pump. A radially inner feed chamber of the two feed chambers is arranged for filling a baffle of a fuel tank of a motor vehicle. The radially outer feed chamber is arranged for suctioning in fuel from the baffle. The feed pump is of particularly compact design and the radially inner feed chamber is arranged at a low level in the baffle.

A horse feed made from carrot juice derived from a carrot prior to consumption. The invention further includes the combination of carrot pulp to form a complete juiced carrot for consumption by a horse either as part of or as a complete feed.

A feed arm (10) for use with a debarking and delimbing machine (100). The arm is constructed of a first section (12) and a second section (14) which are slidably connected together using an insert (16). The first section is securely mounted on the lower frame (114) of the machine adjacent the end opening (108) at the infeed side opening (110). The feed arm acts to move and guide the trees (150) to be debarked and delimbed into the flailing station (102) of the machine.

First and second screw threads along a feed screw permit a slide to be fed at two different speeds for a constant rotation of the feed screw. A first nut moves along the first thread. A second nut is threaded onto the outer diameter of the first nut for common translation along the first thread. Upon contacting a stop shoulder, the first nut stops translation and starts rotating with the screw. This rotation causes the second nut (and slide) to translate off the first nut and onto the second scr...

A livestock feed containing meat and bone, bloodmeal, soy hulls, corn and about 20% by weight liquid animal fat. The invention further relates to a process for making a livestock feed including the steps of mixing together meat and bone, bloodmeal, soy hulls, corn and a first portion of liquid animal fat; extruding the mixture into pellets; and then spraying the extruded pellets with a second portion of liquid animal rat. All of the fat used in the livestock feed and in the process for making th...

A feed additive which is effective for preventing and/or treating protozoiasis of livestock such as coccidiosis and for suppressing accumulation of fat of livestock is disclosed, which comprises (a) a triglyceride of a medium-chain fatty acid having 6 to 12 carbon atoms; and (b) at least one substance selected from a medium-chain fatty acid having 6 to 12 carbon atoms, a monoglyceride of the fatty acid and a diglyceride of the fatty acid. A feed for livestock containing the feed additive, and a ...
