Abstract: An improved water union may include a fixed portion and a rotating portion. The fixed portion of the water union may be physically coupled to a stationary portion of a machine or other stationary object and the rotating portion may be physically coupled to a rotating portion of a machine or other rotating object. For example, a rotating table may include a stationary base to which the fixed portion of the water union may be physically attached, while the rotating portion of the water union may be physically attached to a rotating surface. In doing so, the rotating portion of the water union may be capable of freely rotating with the rotating surface, while maintaining a constant physical orientation to objects on the rotating surface within a rotating frame of reference.
