Be it known that I, ROYAL E. ll/linnnn, a citizen of the'United States, and resident of Chicago coimty of Cook, and State'of Illinois. have invented certainnew and useful Improvements in Water Coolers, of'which. 'the following is aspecification and which.
are illustrated in the a'ccompanying drawlugs, forming a part thereof. r The inventlon relates tor-water coolers primarily designed foruse inrailway cars,
though not necessarily limited? thereto, and
being of aty'pe, in which thedrinking water is conta nedjin atank'enclosed with nan "icing chamber but disconnected therefrom in order that there may be no contamination by the 1ce.
The objects of the invention are to gener-' ally improve and simplify coolers of this type, and the inventionconsists of a struc ture such its-hereinafter descrlbedand 1llus tratedin the accompanying drawings, in
of wood with a metal lining, as shown at 12.
It is desirably entirely open at the top and provided with a removable cover or lid 13. The side walls of the container are shown as prolonged somewhat below the bottom 11,
' to form a closure for protecting the drawofipipe 14:, and to the extreme bottom end of the container there is applied a drip pan 15' having a tray 16 for holding a glass directly below the draw-cit faucet 17 and also provided with a nipple 18 which may be connected with a suitable drain pipe.
I This container will ordinarily be mounted against a wall, and maybe secured thereto by means of any suitable form, of bracket.

10, removably fitting within a, band-I21 spaced apart: from the container "walls but r1g1dly secured thereto, as lay-means of brackets 22, which may beldisposed as found desirable I to secure adequate strength, but are preferably so placed asto interfere as little'as' possible the charging of the. container with ice. "A. plurality-of lugs 23 11 ofthe container .10 for.inclosi'ngand p ositioning the lower end ofthe tank 20. The
' bottom 26 of the tank iscenti ally apertured j "and provided with a flaring nipple "27, adapted to lit-upon a plug'28, preferably of; rubber; secured to the bottom 11 oft-he container and forming'a water-tight joint-to are attachedito "the walls of the. tank 2Q; to engage thebandiflyflin order that it may serve as a supportas wellas:aguideforithe. l tank; Thefupper end of the tank 20 is closed by'a suitablecap or cover 2%.
Anannular wall 25 risestrom the bottom; :7 V 1 prevent leakage from the tank, The wall 25 is suitably aperturedfas shown at 29,' to
permit the waterv resulting-from the melting of the ice to reach the drain openings 19;
Suitable'means are provided for withdrawing the water from the tank. As shown a V siphon arrangement is employed. One leg ofth'e siphon is carried by'the tank and one;
by the-container. The two legs-are connect-. ed together by an air-tight jointand' the members ofthe joint are so arranged that .they'may bereadily disconnected. Preferably the arrangement is such thatthe parts are disconnected inthe act of removing. the
lected to illustrate :the invention the inner end of the draw-01f pipe 14: extendsluptank from the container. In the form sewardly through the container bottom 11' and terminates in-a: tapering nipple 30, which receives, as a slip joint, the downturned end 31 of a siphon tube 32 which extends through the wall of the tank 20 and downwardly to close proximity with the bottom '26 thereof.
Suitable packing 3 0 between the parts of.
1 the slip joint forms an air-tight connection t in the longerleg of the siphon. .The'bo-w w of the siphon tube 32' is well toward'the top of the tank, as shown approximately one- 1 j.
third'of the length. of the "tank from 'its upper end.
When the tank is placed the container,- the downturned. endot the pipe V 32 being inserted into the nipple 30, tight joints are automatically secured at thisnipple and at the. nipple 21'. The tankbeing now .Qfilled @with water, the ."draw-ofisiphon is primed as soon as the level of the bow is reached, and the tank may be entirely 'QTiIPlZlQCl of its contents through the faucet 17.
The cover 24 being replaced after th e tank is filled, the. ice container may be charged without danger of contamination of the. water, and no seepage nto the tank from the container canoccur.
