Abstract: A drinker device for foul and stock provides a constant water supply in a cup by means of a valve controlled by a free floating ball actuator. The ball can be readily moved by the foul or animal to access the drinking water without actuating the valve controlling the water supply until the water level drops to an undesirable level. The device also provides convenient height adjustment mechanism and a quick unit replacement feature.

Abstract: A valved discharge member for use with the water supply system for use with cages of fowl and small animals, wherein a valve element in the member engages two spaced valve seats and is unseated by movement laterally and upwardly of a pin extending through a discharge opening and projecting below the housing.

Abstract: A watering device for fowl and small animals having a two-part telescopically interfitting housing and interlocking hooks on the housing parts which are provided with elements to accommodate interlock and release thereof by relative rotation of the housing parts when telescoped. The interlock hooks releasably resisting relative rotation of housing parts when the interlock hooks are operatively engaged. One housing part has a projecting externally screw threaded inlet tube for sealing threaded fit and anchorage in an aperture of a water supply conduit.

Abstract: A watering cup for fowl and animals has a telescopic valved and sealed fit of a normally closed valved tubular part of a cup housing within a normally closed valved depending tubular outlet of a water supply line and a hook interlock of said telescoping parts. A cup pivoted in the cup housing below the valved tubular cup part has a projection for opening the valve of the tubular cup housing part and a spring controlled by adjustable tensioning means urges said cup and its projection toward valve opening position when less than a selected quantity of water is contained in the cup.
