Abstract

Bird feeder-drinker set. The invention consists of five elements: - 2 reservoirs (1) for water and seeds - 1 double base (2) receptacle for seeds and water in the cell (6), center of which a rib (7) allows the holding of the reservoirs for the flow of water and seeds - 1 upper structure (3) hollowed out on 2 circles (8) for the maintenance of the reservoirs - 1 cover (5) is placed on the structure (3) and fitted onto it using clips (9). - pins (4) to join the elements (2) and (3). The particularity of the present invention lies in the fact that the double lower receptacle base (2) and the upper structure (3) use the same part.

Description

<Desc / Clms Page number 1>

The invention presents a bird-feeder assembly. The state of the art shows a bird feeder using a bottle-shaped container promoting the transport of food for birds, and during its use the distribution and sorting of different foods. Its use is limited to the distribution of seeds without the possibility of distributing water in the same set.

un à eau (1) b) 1 double base réceptacle des graines d'un côté (2), de l'eau de l'autre (2) c) 1 structure supérieure (3) pour le maintien des réservoirs d) l structure supérieure (3) et la base réceptacle (2) sont maintenues ensemble par des tourillons en bois (4) e) 1 couvercle (5) est posé sur la structure supérieure (3) assurant la protection des réservoirs de l'écoulement des eaux de pluie. European patent no 204428 According to the invention, a feeder-waterer assembly for birds comprises 5 elements: a) 2 seed tanks (1)

one for water (1) b) 1 double seed receptacle base on one side (2), water on the other (2) c) 1 upper structure (3) for holding the tanks d) l structure upper (3) and the receptacle base (2) are held together by wooden pins (4) e) 1 cover (5) is placed on the upper structure (3) ensuring the protection of the reservoirs against the flow of water from rain.

The particularity of the present invention lies in the fact that the double lower receptacle base (2) and the upper structure (3) for holding the reservoirs (1) use the same part, the upper structure (3) being hollowed out on two circles. (8) to allow the passage of the two tanks (1).

The tanks (1) can advantageously use used plastic bottles in order to limit the weight of the assembly.

Each of these tanks (1) is placed vertically, neck down, wedged on a rib (7) in the center of a cell (6) arranged in the receptacle (2).

This rib (7) maintains the opening of the neck of the tank (1) allowing the passage of seeds or water in the cell (6) as and when they are consumed by birds.

The base (2) is sufficiently stable and clear to allow access to several birds.

The upper structure (3) is assembled to the base (2) by wooden pins (4) and ensures the vertical maintenance of the assembly. The pins (4) are engaged in recesses of the same diameter provided on the structure (3) and the base (2).

This structure (3) uses the same part as the base (2), a cutout of the bottom of the cell (6) allows the passage (8) of the tanks (1).

The cover (5) is fitted onto the structure (3) by means of clips (9) passed through holes provided for this purpose in the cover (5) and the structure (3); suet balls can be hung on these clips. This invention is made by transforming plastic material for elements 2, 3 and 5 and wooden pins (4).

The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention, Figure 1 in perspective, Figure 2 in section.
