SODA-WATER FOUNTAIN.
SPEGIFICATIN formingpart of Letters Patent No. 689,626, dated December 24, 1901.
Application led May 31, 1901.
To all whom it 11mg/ concern:
Be it known that I, CALEB SMITH, of the city of Decatur, county of Macon, and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Soda-Water Fountains, of which the following is a specification.
This invention provides superior facilities for detaching the syrup-cans from the fountain and for supplying the ice-compartment with ice. It also economizes space in the placing of the syrup-cans and gives ready and complete access to the cans.
The invention is exemplified in the structure hereinafter described, and it is defined inthe appended claims.
In the drawings forming part of this specitication, Figure 1 is afront elevation of a part of a combined fountain and refrigerator, the ice-box door being swung open to show the arrangement of the cans with relation thereto and to expose the pipes that carry the carbonated Water to the draft-head on the doorA of the yice-box. Fig. 2 is a horizontal section through the ice-box on the line of the upper edge of the ice-boxA door. Fig. 3 is a detail in section, showing how the syrup-cans are sustained by the door of the ice-box.
The ice-box 5 has in 'its face a recess extending crosswise of the box, with its lower wall approximately in. line with the bottom of the ice-box. The vertical cross-wall of the recess is shown at 6, and such wall terminates Well below the upper end of the icebox. At the bottom of the recess a shelf, as 10, preferably projects from the face of the refrigerator-casing. Above the wall 6 of the recess a door?? is hinged at one of its vertical sides, as shown at 7a in Fig. 2, and such door is flush with or projecting beyond the front of the ice-box. The door 7 has on its lower edge an inwardly-extending ledge or shelf 8, which forms a support. for the syrup-cans, and the shelf is slotted in its inner edge, asv shown at 3a in Fig. 2, to receive the downward-extendin g faucets 12 of the cans 9. The inner edge of the shelf closes over the upper edge of the wall 6 of the recess, as shown inl Figs. 2 and 3, and the bottoms of the cans close all of slots 8 not closed by the faucets 12. The faucets are soldered to the bottoms 0f the cans, and they have valve-handles 13,
venient to the end of pipe 4.
serial No. 62.462. CNO man.)
' that extend in front of the door 7'and are 'on the shelf in an obvious manner, and when they are in place aud the door closed glasses may be set on shelf l0 in the recess and below the faucets and may be supplied with syrup in the customary manner. All of the ice-box above Wall 6 is closed by door 7, and when the door is opened ice is readily supplied to the box through the vertical opening without the labor required to raise the ice above the top of the box.
It is desirable to attach the draft-head 11 for the carbonated or aerated water in the swinging door 7, and to provide for that I run pipe 4 from the draft-head along the upper edge of thedoor to near the hinge of the door, where I make a Vfiexibl'e connection with the supplypipe 1. The supply-pipe runs through the ice-box in any manner best calculated to cool its contents, and near the hinge of the door it rises to a position conl prefer to connect pipe 1 with pipe 4 by means of the short pieces of pipe 2 and 3, which are hinged together and hinged one to pipe 1 and the other to pipe 4; but other means may be provided to make the connection flexible, so that the pipe 4t may swing with the door as the door is opened and closed.
To permit the cans to be placed along the shelfwithout intermission, I groove the door vertically in its inner surface, as shown at 14, and extend the pipe 4 downward in such groove until it reaches the draft-head 11. The horizontal extension of the pipe 4 being above the cans and the vertical extension of the pipe being in the groove in the door, a can may be set in line with the draft-head, as shown.
I claim 1. In a soda-water fountain, the combination of an ice-box having a horizontally-extended recess in the lower part of its face, a horizontally-swingable door forming the face of the ice-box above the recess, such door be- IOC) ing projected out over the recess and hinged at one of its sides, and a slotted shelf on the inside of the lower edge of the door to support the cans and close the space between the door and the back wall of the recess, substantially as described.
2. In a soda-water fountain, the combination of an ice-box having a horizontally-extended recess in the lower part of the face, a horizontally-swingable door forming the face of the ice-box above the recess, such door being projected out over the recess, a slotted shelf on the lower, inner edge of the door to support the cans and close over the back wall of the recess, a draft-head fixed in the door, a pipe communicating with the draft-head and running near the hinge of the door, and a liexible section in the pipe adjacent to the hinge of the door.
3. In a soda-water fountain, the combination of an icebox having a horizontally-extended recess in the lower partof its face, a
horizontally-swingable door forming the face of the ice-box above the recess, such door being projected out over the recess, a slotted shelf on the lower, inner edge of the door to sustain the cans and close over the back Wall of the recess, a draft-head attached to the front of the door, a pipe running from near the hinge of lthe door along the upper, inner edge of the door and communicating with the draft-head through a vertical groove in the inner surface of the door, a supply-pipe extending inside the ice-box to near the hinge of the door and a Iiexible connection between the supply-pipe and the pipe connected with the draft-head, substantiall y as described.
In testimonj7 whereof I sign mynaine in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
CALEB SMITH.
