IMPROVEMENT lN WATER-COOLERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 115,736, dated June 6, 1871.
' for cooling drinking-water by means of a comparatively small quantity of ice placed in a separate ch amber beneath the water-reservoir, through which chamber passes a small pipe from the reservoir, which conducts water through the ice-chamber without discharging any water into the latter, said pipe emptying into a second reservoir below the ice-chamber,
V the bottom of the latter forming the top of said second reservoir, said bottom being of sheet metal, and in shape an inverted cone, from the apex of which the melted water from the ice drips into a pan beneath the lower reservoir, the water in the latter being cooled by contact with said conical bottom.
Referring to the drawing, A is an ordinary double jar, having packing a between its inner v and outer skins to prevent the conduction of heat. I) is the upper water-reservoir; o, the
cover of the same; (1, the icechamber c, the inverted conical bottom of the same; f, the drip-pan for the melted ice-water; g, the wastepipe from the drip-pan; h, the lower waterreservoir surrounding the conical bottom a; i, the pipe connecting the upper and lower reservoirs, passing through the ice-chamber, and, consequently, subjecting the water during its transit to the cooling action of the ice. j is the cock, through which drinking-Water is drawn from the reservoir h, chilled by contact with the cooling surface of the bottom a; and 75, the orifice, through which ice is passed into the chamber 01.
By this apparatus a small quantity of ice will produce the same frigorific effect as a much larger quantity in the ordinary cooler, and will last much longer than an equal quantity immersed in water.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
The combination of the upper and lower water-reservoirs b h, the intermediate ice-chamber 01, the connecting-pipe t, and the inverted conical bottom 0, as specified.
