Applicationifiiea-September 13; 1926. Serial no. 35,131.
The iin entic-nrel'ates to means for sup-1 plying water to stock for drinkingpurposes prevent thev foulingf the 'wa't er and-"tn access guard against the animal's having thereto except for. drinking.
The invention contemplates" a stoclrywa" terer embodying twosliells, one within. the
other, the innerish'elli constituting a" receptacle forreceiving and holding the water and. the outer shell. forming a. casing to receive'the heater and provide a" space for the circulation of the warm air.
lVhile the drawings illustrate a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is to be understood that in adapting the means to meet specific needs and requirements, the design may be varied and such other changes in the minor details of construction may be resorted to within the scope of the invention as claimed, without departing from the spirit thereof.
For a full understanding of the invention and the merits thereof reference is to be had to the following description and the drawings hereto attached, in which,
Figure 1 is a horizontal sectional view of a stock waterer embodying the invention taken on the line 1 1 of Figure 3. Figure 2 is a vertical sectional view on the line 22 of Figure 1.
Figure 3 is a sectional view similar to Figure 2, taken on the line 3--3 of Figure 1.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary view showing more clearly the offset portion of the water chamber beneath which the heater is placed for direct action, and V Figure 5 is a fragmentary sectional view on the line 55 of Figure 1, looking in the direction of the arrows.
Corresponding and like parts are referred to in the following description and desig-.
nated in the several views of the drawings by like reference characters. a
The stock waterer comprises an inner shell 1 and an outer shell 2, a space being formed between the two shells for circulation of warm air to prevent freezing of the water in cold weather. The outer shell 2 is in the nature of a casing and is of rectangular outline and stepped upon its top to provide surfaces in different planes, the upper surface constituting a removable cover 3 and the lower surface affix'ed ft'op at, i'irwliicli open;
tutes a water cliamber and tl'i'ep'ort-i'on closed byithe top receives the pails or vessels 6. A float 8'is arranged inthe other p'ortionof the chamber and controls'a valve 9" which admits water' intothezcha'mher. A pipe 10 connects with the bo-ttoino'f" the water f ch'am ber "and'leadl's-to a suitable source of supply,
not shown. That portion of the water chamber receiving the float 8 extends flush with the top of the casing whichis closed by means of the cover 3 to provide ample movement for the float 8. An offset portion 11 projects laterally from the rear walls ofthe water chamber and is located in theangular space formed between the two portions.
This ofi'set portion 11 is located at thetop of the water chamber, as shown most clearly in Figure 3 and extends to the top portion I of the casing closed by means of the cover 3.
A suitable heater'12, such as alamp is dis' posed beneath the offset portion 1 1 so that the latter may receive direct action of the heat, and thereby prevent the congealing of the water at the surface in extreme cold weather. circulates about the water chamber through The warm air from the heater the space formed between said chamber and the walls of the casing, as indicated most clearly, in Figure 1.
The cover 3 has an opening 13 opposite the offset port-ion 11 for the escape of any vapor that may be formed. An opening 14 is formed in the rear wall of the casing 2 and the same is protected by means of a hood 15 which is open at the bottom and closed at its top and sides. The casing 2 may be closed by a bottom if preferred, or may be closed by the ground or platform upon which the waterer may be placed. When the water is turned on the float valve 9 controls the supply to the water chamber. The water passes from the chamher into the drinking vessels 6 through the valve controlled opening in the bottom thereof, and as the level of the water lowers in either one ofthe' vessels 6 water flows from the chamber into said vessel to preserve and maintain a uniform level in the vessel 6 and the water chamber, as will be readily understood. The cover admits of the heateror lamp 12 being placed in position or removed for cleaning or replenishing.
Having thus described the claim: 7
I. A stock waterer comprising a casing of rectangular outline, an 'L-shaped water invention, I
chamber disposedwithin the casing to provide a surroundingspace, said water chamher having an offset portion at its top overhanging the space of the casing, one portion of the water chamber being closedby atop in which openings are formed for the reception of drinking vessels, a float controlled valve arranged Within the other portion of the waterchamber for regulating the supply of water thereto, a heater within the casing disposed beneath the offset portion of the water chamber, and a removable coverclosing the portion of thecasing containing the said offset port-ion of the waterchamber and v the part. thereof containing the float valve.
water chamber and having openings therein ,for the reception of drinking vessels, a float controlled valve. in the other portion of the water chamber, an offset portion in the an gular space formed between the parts comprising the water chamber and located at the top thereof, a heater within the casing disposed beneath the ofi'set portion of the water chamber, a cover closing the upper stepped portion of the casing and the part of the water chamber in which the float:
valve is located and extending over and closing the top of the said lateral ofiset portion, the casing having an opening in a wall which is protected bya hood.
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
