Description
LIQUID BIRD FEEDER
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention generally relates to liquid bird feeders, and in particular to such bird feeders which provide for inverted filling while minimizing residual liquid spillage.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Liquid nectar bird feeders are used for specifically attracting humming birds in the same manner as seed feeders are used to attract other birds. Some may consider liquid nectar feeders to be less convenient however, because of the liquid auto-feed structure. Filling liquid feeders commonly requires inversion of the feeder and certain liquid spillage from this action.
It is therefore desirable to have a liquid nectar feeder which minimizes liquid spillage during filling.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
One embodiment of the present invention provides a liquid bird feeder, comprising a liquid container having a bottom opening, a liquid tray adapted to attach to the liquid container and adapted to immerse the bottom opening in liquid, wherein the liquid tray includes a bottom port passing through the liquid tray and vertically aligned with the bottom opening, and a valve mechanism adapted to selectively couple the bottom port of the liquid tray to the bottom opening for filling purposes, or to close the bottom port and couple the bottom opening to the liquid tray for supplying liquid from the liquid container to the liquid tray.
The liquid tray may include a concave bottom surface located adjacent to the bottom port and adapted to act as a funnel or collector for filling the liquid container through the bottom port. The bird feeder may further comprise a valve actuator handle extending through the bottom port. The valve actuator handle may be located within the concave bottom surface of the liquid tray. The concave bottom surface may surround the bottom port.
The liquid tray may include a top cover enclosing the liquid tray and adapted to avoid liquid spillage from the liquid tray during inversion of the bird feeder. The liquid tray top cover may include one or more feeding ports which extend below the bottom opening when the bird feeder is in an upright position, and thus below a normal liquid level in the liquid tray. The top cover may enclose sufficient volume to keep the bird feeder ports above a normal liquid level when the bird feeder is inverted.
In another embodiment, the present invention provides a liquid bird feeder, comprising a liquid container having a bottom opening, a liquid tray adapted to attach to the liquid container and adapted to immerse the bottom opening in liquid, a cylindrical collar forming a bottom port of the liquid tray and extending through the liquid tray and the bottom opening, and a stopper adapted for closing the cylindrical collar from beneath the liquid tray, wherein the cylindrical collar is adapted to allow filling of the liquid container through the bottom port by removal of the stopper and locating the feeder in an inverted position, and further adapted to allow liquid flow from the liquid container into the liquid tray with the stopper closing the cylindrical collar and the feeder located in an upright position.
The bottom opening may be larger than an outer diameter of the cylindrical collar. The liquid container may include a cylindrical extension forming the bottom opening and extending downwardly around a top end of the cylindrical collar.
The liquid tray may include a concave bottom surface located adjacent to the bottom port and adapted to act as a funnel or collector for filling the liquid container through the bottom port.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Fig. 1 shows a liquid bird feeder 10, which generally includes a liquid container 12 and a liquid tray 14. Tray 14 further includes a multiplicity of flower-like bird feeding ports 16.
Fig. 2 shows a centrally located, cross section of bird feeder 10 including the same liquid container 12, liquid tray 14, and feeding ports 16. Fig. 2 further shows liquid container 12 to have a bottom opening 18 formed by a cylindrical extension 20.
Container 12 is also shown to be otherwise closed. It should be noted that bottom opening 18 extends below an upper edge 22 of liquid tray 14. This allows the gradual feeding of liquid from liquid container 12 into tray 14 when the liquid level within tray 14 is below the bottom opening 18. Whenever the liquid level in tray 14 is above bottom opening 18, a vacuum created above the liquid located within liquid container 12 prevents further flow into tray 14. This is a normal liquid level for enabling bird feeding.
-3--Liquid tray 14 further includes bottom port 30 which passes through liquid tray 14 and is vertically aligned with bottom opening 18. Port 30 is closed by a valve 32, which is constructed to either allow the filling of liquid container 12 when feeder 10 is in an inverted position or to allow the normal flow of liquid into tray 14 when feeder 10 is in an upright position. Valve 32 closes port 30 by means of a seal 34.
Also shown in Fig. 2 is a cover 38 for liquid tray 14, which cover 38 is located between liquid container 12 and tray 14. Feeding ports 16 are mounted in cover and are shown to have lower ends 16a which extend below bottom opening 18 and thus below the normal liquid level which would be maintained at or about bottom opening 18. When feeder 10 is inverted for filling, cover 38 has sufficient volume to contain the liquid from tray 14 and thus spillage is prevented. In this inverted position, the ends 16a normally extend above the level normal liquid level to be expected.
Optionally, the top 38a of cover 38 may include a seal of any suitable nature with container 12 or top 38a may be sealed thereto during construction of feeder 10 to prevent any seepage.
Fig. 3 shows an exploded view of bird feeder 10. Liquid tray 14 also includes a cylindrical collar 40, which forms the bottom port 30 (Fig. 2). Cylindrical collar 40 includes female thread 42 adapted to mate with a male thread 44 located on cylindrical extension 20. When tray 14 is attached to container 12 in this manner, tray cover 38 is squeezed there between. Cylindrical collar 40 also includes a port located in its side wall. Valve 32 is also shown in Fig. 3 with a cylindrical construction 47 having lateral port 49. In reference to Fig. 2, when valve 32 closes port 30, the alignment of ports 46 and 49 allows liquid to flow from liquid container 12 into liquid tray 14.
Figs. 4 and 5 show bottom views of liquid tray 14 which differ in that valve 32 is located in respective opened and closed positions. Tray 14 is shown to include a concave depression 52 which is adapted to work as a funnel for liquid being poured into feeder 10. Concave depression 52 is shown to fully contain a grip or handle 53 for valve 32. In the open position of Fig. 4, a space 54 is provided between seal 34 and tray 14. This allows liquid poured into depression 52 to flow into liquid container 12. In Fig. 5, valve 32 is
Also shown in Fig. 2 is a cover 38 for liquid tray 14, which cover 38 is located between liquid container 12 and tray 14. Feeding ports 16 are mounted in cover and are shown to have lower ends 16a which extend below bottom opening 18 and thus below the normal liquid level which would be maintained at or about bottom opening 18. When feeder 10 is inverted for filling, cover 38 has sufficient volume to contain the liquid from tray 14 and thus spillage is prevented. In this inverted position, the ends 16a normally extend above the level normal liquid level to be expected.
Optionally, the top 38a of cover 38 may include a seal of any suitable nature with container 12 or top 38a may be sealed thereto during construction of feeder 10 to prevent any seepage.
Fig. 3 shows an exploded view of bird feeder 10. Liquid tray 14 also includes a cylindrical collar 40, which forms the bottom port 30 (Fig. 2). Cylindrical collar 40 includes female thread 42 adapted to mate with a male thread 44 located on cylindrical extension 20. When tray 14 is attached to container 12 in this manner, tray cover 38 is squeezed there between. Cylindrical collar 40 also includes a port located in its side wall. Valve 32 is also shown in Fig. 3 with a cylindrical construction 47 having lateral port 49. In reference to Fig. 2, when valve 32 closes port 30, the alignment of ports 46 and 49 allows liquid to flow from liquid container 12 into liquid tray 14.
Figs. 4 and 5 show bottom views of liquid tray 14 which differ in that valve 32 is located in respective opened and closed positions. Tray 14 is shown to include a concave depression 52 which is adapted to work as a funnel for liquid being poured into feeder 10. Concave depression 52 is shown to fully contain a grip or handle 53 for valve 32. In the open position of Fig. 4, a space 54 is provided between seal 34 and tray 14. This allows liquid poured into depression 52 to flow into liquid container 12. In Fig. 5, valve 32 is
-4-shown in a closed position with no similar space shown adjacent to seal 34.
The variation in the vertical position between tray 14 and valve 32 with the rotation of valve 32 can be caused by any suitable thread arrangement, such as thread follower 51 (Fig. 3) on valve 32 and a corresponding thread or channel (not shown) on the inside surface of cylindrical extension 40. Any suitable valve design may be used.
Functionally, container 12 is connected to tray 14 with valve 32 closed, and container 12 is connected to, port 30 and not tray 14 when valve 32 is open.
Fig. 6 shows a cross sectional view of an alternate valve or stopper 60, being used to close the bottom of port 30a. Liquid tray 14a is shown to include an additional cylindrical collar 62, which is aligned with and extends into bottom opening 18a of cylindrical extension 20a. The outer diameter 62a of cylindrical collar 62 is smaller than the inner diameter 20b of cylindrical extension 20a and bottom opening 18a.
Stopper 60 is intended for complete removal from tray 14a while liquid feed is poured through bottom port 30a of tray 14a. Thus, liquid feed flows directly through cylindrical extension 20a and it does not enter liquid tray 14a. Tray 14a includes a concave depression 64 to act as a funnel. Thus, when stopper 60 closes port 30a, as shown in Fig. 6, and the feeder is turned upright, liquid is allowed to flow through extension 20a, around the outside of cylindrical collar 62 and through port 46a into tray 14a. Any suitable means may be used to secure stopper 60 in port 30a against a washer 34a, including a threaded engagement sufficient to maintain a liquid seal.
A perspective view of the stopper is provided in Fig. 7.
Thus, the present invention provides a liquid bird feeder, which is well adapted for refilling, while minimizing spillage of residual liquid feed.
It will now be apparent to those skilled in the art that other embodiments, improvements, details, and uses can be made consistent with the letter and spirit of the foregoing disclosure and within the scope of this patent, which is limited only by the following claims, construed in accordance with the patent law, including the doctrine of equivalents.
