Feeding grizzlies seems pretty complicated……

  Only vibrating ones. Take it from me, worst kind.

I really have no interest in the models, but I followed the links to find out if the feeder was vibrating or the bears vibrated. And why you would want to feed a vibrating bear. Turns out the machinery has nothing to do with bears at all.

  From: http://www.tesconengineers.com…
  Typical applications include crusher relief operations in Mining and Quarrying applications. They are used to screening out trash and tramp material. For example, they are used for high capacity screening of moist coal in power plants without material blockage. They are also in increasing use in building roads and civil construction projects for screening of Basalt Rock, various types of stones and gravel.

    “They are used to screening out trash and tramp material.” Well, they clearly don’t work.

  The feeders have to oscillate at the same rate as the bears or you get a huge mess.

Grizzlies can’t survive on bear food alone. They need eye candy, too.

No, no, no. These are for feeding grizzlies to other, even bigger, creatures.

They’re from Thailand. So, I’m not guessing Godzilla. What could it be…

Those vibrating grizzly feeders really are very nice, but why are they standing next to the mining/quarrying equipment?

Reminds me of the Ridgid pipe tools calendars I used to see in my dad’s shop. Think busty young women in skimpy bikinis posing with humongous pipe wrenches.

  What about the blouse ruffles that could get caught in the feeder mechanism?

Years ago there was an advertisement in Physics Today for some cryogenic equipment that featured a picture of said equipment with a female model in a bikini next to it.
