STOCK WATERING TANK.
APPLICATION FILED APR.18, 1905.
WILLIAM BARBOUR, OF OXFORD, IOWVA.
STOCK-WATE RING TANK.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 16, 1906.
Application filed April 18, 1905. SerialNo. 256.271.
To all whom, it ntrty concern:
Be it known that I, WVILLIAM BARBOUR, a citizen of the United States, residing at Oxford, in the county of Johnson and State of Iowa, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Stock-VVatering Tanks, of which the following is a specification,
My invention relates to stock-watering tanks, and to that particular class provided with heaters which prevent the water from freezing in cold weather.
The object of my invention is to provide a tank with a heater so disposed as to utilize the heat from the products of combustion to prevent the freezing of the water contained in the open trough.
lVith these and other objects in view the present invention consists in the combination and arrangement of parts, as will be hereinafter more fully described, shown in the accomp anying drawings, and p articularly pointed out in the appended claims, it being understood that changes in the form, proportion, size, and minor details may be made within the scope of the claims without departing from the spirit or sacrificing any of the advantages of the invention.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a longitudinal cross-section of my improved tank. Fig. 2 is a frontelevation of the same, and Fig. 3 is a cross-section through the trough.
Referring to the drawings, in which like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views, 1 is a res ervoir, having an open trough 2 in communication therewith. In the embodiment of my invention shown in the drawings this communication consists of a short pipe, to which is attached a valve 3, adapted to be opened and closed as float 4 is lowered and raised by the water in the trough. Near the bottom of the reservoir 1 is provided a fire-box 5, having grate-bars 6 running longitudinally thereof.
7 and 8 are doors communicating with the fire-box and ash-pit, respectively.
Arranged under the trough 2 and running its entire length is a flue 9, communicating at one end with fire-box 5 and at the other with smoke-pipe 10. The reservoir 1 is provided with a cover 11 to prevent the evaporation of the water and also to keep out the dirt. The reservoir is also provided with a cook 12, by which the water may be drawn ofi' should necessity require it.
The operation of my device is as follows: I/Vater supplied to the reservoir will pass into the trough outside, raising the float 4. When the predetermined depth of water is reached, the float will operate to close the valve 3, which will remain closed until the level is re duced by water being taken from the trough by the stock. The products of combustion from the fire on the grate-bars 6 will pass over the rear wall of the fire-box down through flue 9 and out of the stack 10, giving up their heat to the water above as they pass under the trough, thereby keeping the temperature of the water sufficiently high to prevent it from freezing.
The tank above described is simple in construction and can be maintained at a very little expense.
Having described my invention, what I claim as novel, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a device of the character described a stock-watering trough, a water-reservoir adjacent thereto, a fire-box located near the bottom of said reservoir, and aflue connected 5 with the said fire-box extending horizontally and arranged and adapted to heat the water in the said watering-trough.
4. In a device of the character described a stock-watering trough, a waterreservoir adjacent thereto and in communication therewith, a float-actuated valve controlling the flow of water from the reservoir to the trough, a fire-box located near the bottom of said reservoir and a flue connected with the said fire-box, adapted to convey the heated gases produced by the combustion in the firebox adjacent to the water in the said watering-trough.
5. In a device of the character described a stock watering trough, a Water-reservoir In testimony whereof I a-fliX my signature idjacent fthmlito, a fire-10o):i loclated near the in presence of two Witnesses.
