FRANKLIN I. LAUBAGH, OF CATASAUQUA, PENNSYLVANIA.
IMPROVEMENT IN WATER-COOLERS.
Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 152,130, (lated June 16,1874; application tiled April 25, 1874.
To all whom tina/ 1j concern:
Be it known that I, FRANKLIN P. LAUBACH, of Cata-sauqua, in the county ot' Lehigh and State ot' Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tater- Coolers; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description ot' the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it pertains to make and use it, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, which form part of this specification, in which is shown a vertical eentral section of my invention.
My invention has for its object to provide a cheap, simple, and easily constructed watercooler or refrigerator, one which will cost but little, may be easily made, and which shall y prove very eti'ective and durable. My invention then consists of a water-cooler or refrigerator formed of two pans, or equivalent dishes,
provided with suitable inlet and outlet ports, located, respectively, at the bottom and upper part ot' the water-space, and provided also with an outlet or drain pipe communicating with theinner pan, and passing thence through the center of the outer pan, all as hereinafter specifically described.
In the accompanying drawing, which illustrates my invention, A is a cast-iron pan or similar vessel fitting' into a corresponding pan or vessel, B, the flange a resting upon the' han ge b, said flanges being designed to be fastened together by screws or equivalent binding devices. Between the pans is a space, C, which forms the water-chamber. The water is admitted to this chamber through the inletpipe c, and drawn 0E through the cock c. The inlet-pipe is designed to be connected to the nozzle of a hydrant or to a pipe proceeding from the main; hence the object of the above described relative arrangement of inlet and outlet is to allow the water to be drawn ott' without sediment, the latter accumulating at the bottom of the waterspace.
In operation the pan I3 is intended to be placed i'n a box of sawdust or other non-conductor. The ice is placed in the pan A, and covered by a blanket or some equivalent article that will prevent its melting rapidly.
Then the ice in pan Ahas become converted into water, it may be baled out or drawn ott' through the waste-port ai.
I claimrlhe combination, with a water-cooler constructed specifically as described and shown, the outlet or drain pipe c communicating with the inner pan, and passing thence through the center ot' the outer pan, as shown.
In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 16th day ot April, 1874.
FRANKLIN P. LAUBACH.
