Abstract An anti-tipping feed dish formed with a truncated conical exterior wall coaxially defining a feed bowl cavity arranged interiorly of the dish defining a feed bowl floor with a bowl floor spaced from the feed bowl floor defining a lower cavity coaxially arranged with the feed bowl cavity which in turn defines an enclosed cavity capturing a predetermined quantity of weighted materials such as concrete therewithin. Modifications of the instant invention include the bowl floor mounting a series of suction cups to enhance securement of the bowl to a support surface wherein a further embodiment of the invention utilizes selectively reversible suction cups to permit selective removal thereof relative to the bowl and further providing usage of a support bowl frictionally engaging slidably receiving a feed bowl therewithin. In situations where the food dish is not placed on a support surface, a metal chain link has been firmly placed in the exterior wall so as the food dish may be staked if added securement is needed. This feature would be an additional feature on a dirt surface whereas the suction cups add additional securement on a support surface.
An animal food dish organization comprising, a truncated conical exterior wall coaxially arranged about a cylindrical bowl cavity, the bowl cavity including an annular bowl wall spaced interiorly of the conical exterior wall, and the cylindrical bowl cavity defined by a planar bowl cavity floor, and a planar dish floor spaced below and parallel the bowl cavity floor with an enclosed lower cavity arranged between the bowl cavity floor and the dish floor, and interiorly of the cylindrical wall lower cavity positioned completely below the bowl cavity floor, and the bowl cavity floor including a weighted filler material completely filling the lower cavity to define a center of gravity of the food dish organization positioned below the bowl cavity floor, and including a matrix of suction cups orthogonally arranged and directed outwardly from a bottom surface of the dish floor, and wherein the suction cups are defined as reversible suction cups including a first suction cup cavity coaxially aligned with a second suction cup cavity, the first and second suction cup cavities secured together by a central web and the first and second suction cup cavities arranged in reverse directions relative to one another, and further including a cylindrical feed bowl frictionally receivable within the cylindrical bowl cavity, the cylindrical feed bowl including an exterior cylindrical wall defining a predetermined diameter substantially equal to a diameter defined by the cylindrical bowl cavity, and wherein the cylindrical feed bowl includes an upper annular edge, and the truncated conical exterior wall defines a further annular edge positioned below the annular edge when the cylindrical feed bowl is secured within the cylindrical bowl cavity.
