IMPROVEMENT IN WATER AND LlQUO-R COOLERS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 128,956, dated July 16, 1872.

Specication describingcertain new and useful Improvements in Combined Water and Liquor Coolers]7 invented by CHARLES MACK FELLOWS, of Buffalo, in the county of Erie and State of New-York.

.Nature and Object of the Intention'.

General Description. In the drawing, Figure 1 is a vertical section 5 Fig. 2, a plan, showing the arrangement of the bottles, Sto. p

A represents a circular case with double walls, as in ordinary water-coolers, having aremovable top or cover. The whole case or cooler A will set into a base, B, and on an upright pin or pivot, a, arranged in the center, and upon which the whole case revolves. The upper half of the interior of the ice-chamber E is supplied with a partition, d, in which, and close to the, case, `will be arranged the bottles or receptacles C C containing liquor. Each of these is provided with a faucet, D D, which penetrates through the case A, by which each kind of liquor desired is drawn off. The space E in the center of the cooler and beneath these bottles will vbe lled with ice or ice-water, the latter to be drawn oil` for use by means of the large faucets b b. The small faucets can only be turned by a small wrench, and the large ones by a key-wrench. their being used by any but authorized parties. Each faucet D D, which is, of course, stationary, will have its appropriate label on or above it to designate the kind of liquid contained in the bottle to which it is attached. The bottles may be maderemovable, if desired; but it is believed that communication through the top of each is all that will be needed.

I am acquainted with several devices for the same purpose, but none, so far as I know, with the bottles arranged inside the cooler or having attached faucets, thereby doing away with handling and liability of breakage. Mine are also always entirely in contact with or surrounded by ice or ice-water.

I do not claim, broadly, a revolving bottle refrigerator or the movement on a pin or pivot, as they are shown in Frank Allens patent of December 20, 1870, No. 110,328.

What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

The cooler A, provided with the chamber E, divided by a partition or support, d, and mounted upon the pin c, upon a base, B, as described, in combination with the receptacles C C, each provided with a faucet, D.

In witness whereof I have hereunto signed my name in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
