Abstract: An animal litter is described herein which comprises a lower tray and an upper tray mounted to the lower tray thereon. Both the lower and upper trays include litter material therein. The upper tray has a bottom having apertures therein for allowing air circulation between the upper and lower trays. The lower tray has a peripheral wall which supports the upper tray and that includes apertures for allowing air therethrough. The apertures in the bottom of the upper tray and in the peripheral wall of the lower tray contribute to air circulating between the two trays which cause any waste materials in the upper tray to dry, limiting bacteria proliferation and the resulting odour. This increases the operational duration of the litter material.

Title: Bracket system for solar-powered lanterns and method of using same
Inventor: CHRYSANTHOUS VAN
IPC: F21K9/00
Filed: 2011-11-29
Abstract: Mounting brackets hold solar-powered lanterns such as used for garden and pathway lighting. The lanterns make useful hand held lighting if they are releasably mounted in the mounting bracket where they will get sunshine for charging and where a user will often need to use a lantern. They may be mounted for example beside doors or on fence or gate posts, or on walls such as the outside walls of buildings or enclosures such as storage sheds, metal storage containers, etc. A user has no trouble locating the closest lantern after dark as the lanterns automatically turn their lighting elements on when it gets dark. The user may then merely pull the lantern by its stalk, which now serves as the lantern handle, and the resilient tongs of the mounting bracket releases the lantern.
