STOCK WATERER.
Application filed December The object of my invention is to provide a stock waterer of simple, durable and inexpensive I construction, peculiarly adapted for installation in connection with a tank or -other source of supply of water,-and to be subjected to the-heat generated from stable manure, so as to require no lamp or similar heating 1 device. I I With this and other objects in view, my invention consists-iu-the construction,- arrangement-and combination of the various parts of my stock waterer, whereby the objects contemplated are attained, as hereinafter more f ul lyset forth, pointed out in my claim, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which: i I
Figure ,1 shows a top or plan view of a waterer embodying my invention installed in connection witha tank. I
Figure2 is a longitudinal, sectional view through the waterer.
Figure 3 is a detail, transverse, sectional view taken on the line 33 of Figure 2;
Figure 4 is a vertical, sectional view illustrating the structure of the controlling valve andL the relation of the float arm thereto; an'c Figure 5 is a detail, sectional view taken on the line 55 of Figure 2.
It is well known that when stable manure is piled up, there is generated a very considerable degree, of heat for a substantial length of time. I I
It is my purpose to provide a waterer for stock constructed and adapted for the pur-' pose of supplying water automatically to a trough and for utilizing such ordinary waste heat for the purpose of warming the water.
My improved stock waterer may be used in connection with any suitable source of water supply. I
In the drawings, I have shown the water tank indicated generally by the reference numeral 10, which may be the source of supply for the waterer.
The waterer comprises a trough 11, which has a bottom 11", slightly inclined front wall 11", side walls 11, and a back wall 11, which is provided slightly above the bottom of the trough with a substantially semi-circular opening 12 around which is a rearwardly projecting flange 13. The trough likewise has a cover, which I will hereafter describe.
Restin on the flange 13 is one end'of a tubular c amber 14, which is locked to the 6, 1926. Serial No. 152,861.
flange 13 and thetrough 11 by meansof-a clamp 15 on a plate 15% The clamp 15and flange 13 have coacting ears 16*-and 17 (see Figure 2), which are fastenedYtoge th'er by screw bolts 18 orxthe. like.- Av gasket13 is I provided between the tubular compartment 14 and the flange13 and clamp 15.
The rear end of tubular -chamber,.14 .is closed, except to receive the inlet pipe 19, whichextends'through the outer end oflthe tubular chamber 14 and to a point a little short of the trough 11. v V
On the inner end of the intake pi e 19 is a valve casing 20 in whi'ch-is a'valve seat '21, with which cooperates a ballvalve' 22, valve housing23 is sorewed'into the top'fof the casing 20 and is designed tolo'os'elyfreceiv'e" the upper portion" of the ball valve'22, as shown in Figure4. The valve housing 23 has a vent 24. The discharge opening 25 of the valve housing permits flow of water into the tubular compartment 14, from which I water flows into the trough 11.
The compartment 14 is open at its forward end and at its upper portion is formed with a flange 26. An upright plate 27 rests across the upper, rear part of the trough 11 and projects upwardly and downwardly from the upper portion of the compartment 14. Its lower part forms a partition extending below the water level for preventing the passage of cold airinto the compartment 14.
Resting on the trough is a cover 28, which projects forwardly beyond the front wall 11 of the trough to be engaged by the nose of the hog or other animal, so that it may be lifted. A hinge 29 is secured to the cover 28 and to the plate 27. 7
Bolts 30 are mounted in the plate 15 and project'through the plate 27. Wing nuts 31 are screwed into the bolts 30 for holding the hinge and the cover and plate assembly in place and for permitting quick, detachment of the cover 28 for permitting access to the valve and float. The structure shown a casing 36 alongside the compartment lt and substantially spaced therefrom and extend it across the waterer just back of the trough 11.
In the use of the device, manure is placed in the casing 86 entirely surrounding the compartment 14.
Enough heat is generated to keep the 'watervinthecomp'artment l l warm and of course. circulation occurs and'the water in "the. trough is therefore kept from freezing. "Animals raise the cover 28 and drink, and as the water in the trough is lowered, the water from the compartment 14 flows into the t'rou glinuntil the float, is lowered for opening the valve.
As soon' the water flowlng from the'lntake pipe again reaches the predetermined point, the float is raised for closing the valve.
fIt will be seen that the cover 28 may be quickly and easily removed for access to the float and valve.
I claim as my invention:
In a waterer of the class described, a
trough havlng an opemng at its rear end, a
tubular compartment connected with the rear end of the trough in communication therewith and extending a substantial distance therefrom foradapting it to be em bedded in manure, an intake pipe extended into said compartment at the end farthest from the trough and extending to position adjacent to and accessible from the trough, a valve for controlling discharge from the end of said pipe adjacent to the trough, a float in the compartment operatively'fconn ected with-said valve, a plate detachably mounted at the front end ,ofsaid'compartment and projecting downwardly to form apar tition between thetrough and compartment terminating above the bottom of the trough,a trough cover hinged to said plate,
and meansp for detachably mountingj the plate for permitting its ready removal for afiording convenient accessto the'valve and float. I
