WILLIAM A. McCoLLoUGHfoF WEBSTER CITY, IOWA, ASSIGNOR r0 w. A. 'mcooL- LOUGH esons, INC, on WEBSTER CITY, IOWA, A CORPORATION 01: IOWA.
" HOG-WATERER.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM A. MoCoL- LoUeH, a citizen of the United States of America, and resident of Webster City, Hamilton county, Iowa, have invented a new and useful Hog-WVaterer, of which the following is a specification.
The object of this invention is to provide an improved construction for a watering fountain for swine and other domestic animals.
A further object of this invention is to provide an improved wateringdevice adapted to be attached by means of pipe connections to a pressure tank or other suitable source of supply of water under pressure, by means of which water automatically to stock.
A further object of this invention is to provide an improved construction for a water fountain adapted tobe heated by artificial means. A further object of this invention is to provide an improved construction for a removable drinking pan and means for su lying water thereto. f g
y invention consists in the construction, arrangement and combination of elements hereinafter set forth, pointed out in my claims and illustrated by the accompanying drawing, in which Figure 1 is a vertical section illustrating my improved water fountain. Fig. 2 is a plan of the same, the cover being removed and portions broken away to reveal interior construction. Fig. 3 is a front elevation of the device. Fig. 4 is a vertical section and Fig. 5 a plan of the drinking pan removed. In the construction of the device as shown the numeral 10 designates generally a housing formed in major art of sheet metal and preferably rectangular in elevation and plan view, and open at its top. Around the top of the housing 10 is secured an angle iron frame 11 having a horizontal flange projecting outwardly from the periphery of said housing. The housing 10 is formed with a relatively large rectangular opening 12 in the upper portion of its front wall anda door 13 is secured at its upper margin by means of spring hinges 14 and is adapted normally to close said opening. The door 13 may be opened inwardly by-pressure and is formed with peripheral offset flanges 15 on its side and lower margins adapted to limit forward movement of the door under pressure of the 1 Specification of Letters Patent.

spring hinges, whereby said door remains at rest in closing position in substantially the plane of the front wall ofthe housing. A reinforcing strip 16 or band of strap metal preferably is mounted across the front of the housing 10 just beneath the opening 12. A water tank 17 is mounted rigidly in the housing 10 and against the front wallthereof and the greater portion of the front of said tank is open and registers with the aperture 12 of said housing; but the lower portion of said tank extends below the bottom of said aperture and is of water-tight construction. The top 18 of the tank extends rearwardly and downwardly from a plane nearly coincident with the upper margin of the aperture 12. Thebottom of the tank'17 is spaced a'considerable distance above the bottom of the housing 10, and the side and rear walls of said tank are spaced somewhat from the side and rear walls of the housing. Hangers 19 are fixed to the upper portions of the side walls of the housing and extend inwardly and downwardly and are secured to side walls of the tank 17, and serve to assist in supporting said tank. An opening is formed in one side wall of the housing 10 and is closable by a sliding door 20; and by this means access may be had to the interior to place a lamp (not shown) or other artificial heating means beneath the tank 17. A sup ply pipe 21 passes through one side wall of the housing 10 and enters the tank 17, being sealed to water-tight condition where it passes through the wall of the tank by means of a gasket 22 and nut 23. The sup.- ply pipe 21 is adapted to be connected to a pipe or other conductor leading from a pressure tank, main or other suitable source of water supply. A valve device 24 is mounted in the inner end of the supply pipe 21 and is connected with a float 25 located within the tank 17, whereby the level of water in said tank is automatically maintained at the desired level, which level is below the bottom of the opening 12. The valve device 24 and float 25 are here shown conventionally and may be of anv desired and suitable form, such as are commonly used for this purpose. A drinking pan 26 is separately formed and is adapted to be removably and replaceably mounted in the forward lower portion of the tank 17 said pan preferably extendremovable and replaceable through the aperture 12 of the housing by opening-the door 13. The pan 26 is adapted to rest upon the floor of the tank 17 and is formed at its forward upper margin with a lip 27 adapted to engage over the lower margin of the aperture l2 and the reinforcing band 16 to hold said pan in place. The rear wall of the drinking pan 26 is formed at its upper margin with a horizontally arranged sheet or flap 28 extending rearwardly to the rear wall of the tank and overlying the inner.
end of the supply pipe 21 and the float and valve devices connected therewith.
An angle iron bracket 29. is fixed to the lower portion of the front wall of the housing and is adapted to be employed to support one end of an inclined approach (not shown) by means of which animals such as swine may gain access to the drinking pan through the door 13.
Means is provided to permit passage of water from the tank 17 to the drinking pan 26, such means preferably comprising a plusaid top isplaced in closing position by sliding rearwardly from the front of the housing.
Ventilating or circulation openings 33, one of which is shown in Fig. 1, are formed in forward portions of the side walls of the tank 17 above the position occupied by the pan 26 and, of course, above the water level. A similar opening 34 is formed -inthe central forward portion of the top 18- of the tank, and another, designated by the numeral 35, is the forward central portion of the top 30 of the housing.
Heater air and products of combustion rising from the lower portion of the housing contact with the bottom and rear and side walls of the tank 17, as wellas with the sloping. roof 18 thereof; and may also enter said tank by means of the holes 33 and leave through the hole 34, to the end of heating water in said tank and in the pan 26. Oxygen for the lamp may be supplied through interstices of the door 20, and the heated air and products of combustion may escape from the housing, when the top 30 is in place, through the hole 35 therein.
I claim as my invention- 2 1. A stock waterer, comprising a housing formed with a lateral drink opening, means for normally closing said drink opening, a tank rigidly mounted in said housing and accessible through said opening, avalvecontrolled inlet pipe entering said housing and tank, and a drinking pan mounted in said tank and removable and replaceable through said drink opening, said pan being formed with openings for the passage of water thereto from said tank, the rear wall of said pan being spaced from the rear wall of the tank to provide space for the inner end of said inlet pipe, the rear wall of said pan being formed at its top with a rearwardly extending flange overlying the inner end of said inlet pipe.
2. In a stock fountain, a tank, a valvecontrolled inlet pipe entering said tank, and a. drinking pan removably and replaceably mounted in said tank and formed with an opening for the passage of water thereto from said tank, one wall of said pan being spaced from the adjacent Wall of the tank to provide space for the inner endof said inlet pipe, said pan being formed with a horizontal flange at its upper margin overlying theinner end of said inlet pipe, said flange being integrally formed on said pan and removable from the tank therewith.
Signed at Webster City, in the county of Hamilton and State of Iowa,'this 29th day of December, 1919-.
