UNITED STATES- PATENT OFFICE.
THOMAS D. MOWLDS, PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.
WATER-COOLER.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 224,712, dated February 17, 1880.
Application filed November 20, 1879.
of ice used, and at the same time reduce the drinking-water to the lowest possible temperature.
To this end the invention consists of two a concentric chambers, the inner one provided With an air-tight coverand the outer one divided into two compartments, the lower compartment being packed with non-conducting material and the upper one'connected with the inner chamber by means of a pipe, and
serving as a reservoir to admit water automatically in small quantities to the said inner chamber, as thewater is drawn off for use I through a suitable pipe, as more fully hereinafter specified.
In the accompanying drawings, in which similar letters of reference indicate like parts, Figure l is a plan of the cooler. Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of same ready for use.
G is the chamber for the ice; D, a lump of ice; F, a small quantity of water in the ice chamber around the lump of ice D; B B B, a reservoir containing an additional supply of water; A A A, the packing around the ice chamber. This packing may extend a greater or less distance up around the ice-chamber or be discarded entirely.
H is a tube connecting the reservoir with the bottom of the ice-chamber; I, a movable lid to the ice-chamber; E E, a gum washer to make the lid I lit air-tight; K, an iron rod ex tending across the top of the lid and bent so as to fit under a flange around the rim of the ice-chamber, and by this means keep the lid in position and air-tight. Gris a spigot for drawing off the cool water for use. a
The manner of operating the cooler is as follows, viz: The cover I is removed from the top of the ice-chamber G and the ice and a small quantity of water is placed therein, after which the air-tight cover (which may be of any design) is securely adjusted to the top of the ice-chamber. The additional supply of water is then poured into the reservoir 18 B B. The ice-chamber 0 being already filled with ice, Water, and air, and perfectly air-tight, no more water can flow into it from the reservoir B B B until some is drawn off through the spigot G, when a quantity equal to that drawn off immediately flows into the icechamber 0 from the reservoir B B B through the tube H.
What I claim as my invention is- The combination, in a water-cooler, of two concentric chambers, the inner one being provided with an air-tight cover and a suitable draft-tube, the outer one being divided into two
