In the following description and in the claims, For controlling the electricity supplied to the 5 various details will be identified by specific names heater 3 mercury switch l6 may be provided. for convenience, but they are intended to be as This mercury t h may b of n known generic in their application as the art will permit. t t n comprising a glass tube containing Like reference characters denote like parts in pair of t t i d d th supply of the several figures 0f the drawings. mercury 50 In the d w accompanying and forming The lead wire supplying the electric power to part of this specifi i n, Certain Specific the dispenser is indicated by l8 and supplies a closure o the invention ismade for p poses of connector I! from which one wire is connected explanation, but it will be understood that the directly to the wire 20, while the other wire, in-
details may be modified in various respects withdicated by I20, is connected to the switch I 6. The 55 other heater wire I9 is connected directly to the switch I6.
The switch I6 is mounted upon a pivot 22 to which an arm 23 is connected. Operating rod 24 connects arm 23 and a float lever 25 which is pivoted to plate I2 at 21. Ball float 26 is connected to lever 25 and is operated by the water collected in the reservoir H2 under supply plate I2.
To prevent burning out the heater when all ice is consumed, a safety device is provided. This comprises a button 28 connected to a rod 29 which supports a ring 3I under the ball float 26. A spring 30 normally urges button 28 upwardly so that, as soon as the weight of ice is removed, it will move upwardly, lifting the ball float 26 and opening the switch I6.
It will be noted that the switch I6, operating mechanism and wiring connected thereto, together with the ball float, controlling apparatus, .safety device and heater are all removable as a unit for cleaning and inspection purposes.
Disposed below the chamber I0 .and within the casing 55 is a warm water reservoir 32 (Fig. 2). The reservoir 32 may have suitable vertical fins 33 for increasing its surface so that the water therein may be warmed by the heat of the room, it being understood that the warm room air is free to pass within the casing 55 along the ribs 33. A pipe 34 connects cold water reservoir II2 with warm water reservoir 32 and, if desired, this pipe may be covered with heat insulating material 35.
For dispensing the water, a dispensing arrangement, shown best in Fig. 6, is provided. The dispensing arrangement is made up of a fitting 66 having a chamber 31 connected to cold water reservoir I I 2 by pipe 38. The fitting has a second chamber connected to warm water'reservoir 32 by pipe 39.
The fitting 60 also has a mixing chamber 6I provided with an outlet spout 4|. The walls of the chambers 31 and 40 are provided with valve seats communicating with the mixing chamber 6I. Resting on these conical valve seats are conical valve discs 42 and .43.
Connected with the valve discs 42 and .43 are spindles 44 and 45 passing out through the walls of the mixing chamber 6I. Springs 46 and 41, operating between abutments on rods 44 and 45 and the wall of the mixing chamber 6|, operate to normally hold the valves 42 and 43 closed.
On the outside of the dispenser is a casing 52 having an outlet 53 adjacent the spout 4I. Disposed in a hole in casing 52 is a dial push button 49 having an inclined swash plate 5I adapted to engage spindles 44 and 45. The push button 49 is normally held in its outer position by a spring within a hole in the push button operating against a spindle 48 secured to the wall of mixing chamber 6|.
If desired, the lower casing 55 may support a waste receptacle 54 for receiving wasted water. This waste receptacle may conveniently be provided with a bottom outlet valve by which it may be emptied from time to time.
It is thought that the operation of the above apparatus will be obvious from the description given above. When the chamber Ill is charged with ice I4, the weight thereof places the safety ring 3I in its lowermost position, allowing the ball float 26 freedom to operate. The casing walls are well insulated so that the ice melts very slowly. The cold water in reservoir II 2 must keep a predetermined height or the ball float 26 drops, closing switch I6, causing the heater I3 to heat up and melt sufficient ice to bring the water level in reservoir II2 up to its predetermined point.
This water also fills the warm water reservoir 32 which is kept warm by the air circulation from the room. When the ice is consumed, the safety device is allowed to 'move upwardly, the ring 3| en ing the float 25, holding the switch I6 in open. position thereby preventing the burning out of the heater or waste of heat.
To obtain a drink from the dispenser it is only necessary to push in the button 49. The swash plate 5I engages spindles 44 and 45 in a manner depending upon the rotary position of the dial push button '4 9.
As shown in Fig. 1, the casing 52 is marked with temperature indications and the push' button 49 is marked with an arrow. By turning push button 49 to the desired temperature, the valves 42 and a,
4.3 are openedsuch a distance as to supply the proper proportion of water of each temperature to give adrink of the desired temperature.
When thedial push button 49 is turned all the way in one direction to the temperature of 35, no Warm water will be obtained by operation of the push button. Similarly, when the dial indicates no cold water will be obtained by operating the push button. These are the extreme positions and the swash plate 5| is so arranged thatoperation of the push button only opens the one valve under these extreme conditions.
It is obvious that the invention has many advantages. To supply drinking water containers it is only necessary to supply a block of pure water ice. The troublesome bottles of drinking water used in the prior artare unnecessary. The dispensing push button arrangement permits a nice control of the temperature of the drinking water dispensed. Persons desiring somewhat warm drinking water may have it and persons desiring quite .cold drinking water may also obtain it.
The electric current necessary to melt the ice will obviously be comparatively small. Furthermore, there are no packed outlets and all operating parts are or" simple construction. The position of the electric switch and the extending cf the operating apparatus to the top of the ice chamber does away with any possibility of leakageof water.
The unit construction of heating coil, perforated plates, float, conduit, rod, linkage and entire switch box permits easy removal from the ice chamber for cleaning and inspection and repair purposes.
While certain novel features of the invention have been disclosed and are pointed out in the annexed claims, it will be understood that various omissions, substitutions and changes may be made by those skilled in the art without departingrfrom the spirit of the invention.
