Be it'known that'I, BENiTETT KAM Ns'KY,

a citizen of the United States, residing at Indianapolis, in the county ofMarion and State of Indlana, have, invented'certam new and useful Improvements in Water-Fountion. 4 The object of this an absolutely 'tains, Of'which the following is a specificainvention' is to provide The chief feature of the invention consists in providing a number of water-discharging nozzles or water outlets facing each other converging in a number of directions so as to concentrate the streams therefrom atone ppint and preferably at an upward inclination, and free from any interference by any part above the outlets so that at the omt of juncture of said streams there will a geyser-like body of water projected upwardly. The water, after shooting upwardl drops down and flows away. It is easy or one who desires a. drink to apply his mouth to this geyser like' column of water that bubbles .u somewhat like a This renders (.rinking without the cup or di per very easy and agree There is t 1e pleasure that attends g'drinking bubbling spring water, and yet it does not dash against the face or otherwise annoy the person while drinking.

The full nature of the invention will. be understood from the accompanying drawin-gs-and the following description and claims.

In the drawingsFigure-l is a side elevation .of the device .in operation} Fig. 2 is a central vertical section. Fig. 3 is a lan view thereof with the upper portion 0 the casing removed. a

In the drawin 10'represents a stand or the like, to whic plate .11 is secured, hav': ing a threaded aperture 12, through itto receive the water-supply pipe 13. Thereis a tube 14 thatscrews into the aperture 12,-

and said tube extends u wardly and has 'a closed head 15, from tie sides of which nozzles or water outlets 16 -'extend. There ma be any number of these nozzles or water from each other. hey are curved and curved inward ure and sanitary drinking fountain for schbols and other public places.

here extend upwardly, and the outlets are y and upwardly and at about equal distances from the central point, those 0% osite each other bein a y from each other. T e outlets of these nozzles are so arranged that they will con- -ver e streams of waterat a common point,

directed at sai streams being preferably 11 stantia y as an inclination upwardly, su

spaced considershown. The result is that when the streams of -water 20 meet, they will throw a geyserlike. column of water 21 upwardly for an inch or two, and then the water will drop- .down and flow away. The plate'll has a casing 22 extending upwardly from it and.

concentric with the tube 14 and with a bowl.- like portion 23 above, surrounding the nozzles.v The to of the portion 23 is open,

through whic 'the jets 20 are projected. This portion 23 protects the nozzles and keeps the children or others from coming in contact with them or interferingwit them. Therefore, the jets 20 seem to issue from the aperture in the top of the casing 22' and the ortion 23. The waste water flowsdown into the casing 22 through the aperture 25 and out through the waste-v pipe 26. I

The nozzles may be formed as desired, but the double ogee-shape shown in Fig. 2 is preferable,-' as it tends to retard the violence of the How of water therethrou h and produces a. better result than if the ow of water were more direct.

B. nozzles herein is meant'any water disc arge outlet or orifice through or from which water is discharged, whether the same be in a tube or projecting: nozzle, as herein shown, or the water ISSUES. in'streams. from more than two orifices provided-1n some other.

way. While an even number of water dis- I charge outlets are here shown, an odd numbermay be employed if desired.

;'claim as my. invention: v

1. A drinking fountain including a number of water discharge outlets so arranged that they discharge water in streams co verging toreduce a solid body of water ris-' ing from te point where the streams 'meet.

2. A drinking fountain including a num-:

ber of water discharge outlets so arranged that they discharge water, in streams converging 1n more than two directions to progeyserelike jet of water wi duce a solid body of water. rising from the point where the streams meet.

- 3. A drinking than two water i fountain including more scharging nozzles arran ed substantially facing each-other so vas to ischarge the water therefrom at an upward inclination'and .to a single fioint, whereby a be ,thrown upwardly at the point where the streams of 4 other at one point, substantially as set forth.

. supply tube extending u wardly' therefrom, I

"water meet.

4. A drinking fountain including more .than two nozzles dis osed e uidistantaround a central point wit the ischarging ends inclined inwardly and upwardly so as to discharge the columns of water against each 5. The combination of a stand, a .wate'rand more than two nozz es'leading laterallyi from the sides of said-tube at its upper end- .i and extending upwardly around a central point with the discharge ends thereof facing each otherand turned inwardly and upwardly, substantially as shown. I

6. A drinking fountain including an upwardl extending water-sup 1y tube, nozzles exten ing laterally from't e side thereof and extending u wardly around a central point with the ischarge portions leading upwardly and inwardl a casing surrounding said tube and sai nozzles and extending above the nozzles and open at the upper 'end so that streams of water may discharge from the nozzles through said opening and without touching said casing, and an outlet for waste water'at the lower end .of said casing. i

In Witness whereof, I have-hereunto affixed my signature in the presence'of-the witnesses herein named. A
