SELF-BALANCING POULTRY WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
An improved, self-balancing water distribution system uses siphon characteristics to maintain negative pressure within the water system and to enable distribution of water to one or more distribution points, such as drinker lines with drinker nipples, at a controlled pressure, for consumption by poultry. The system includes water conduit connected to and configured to distribute water from a water supply reservoir to the one or more distribution points. The water level of the water supply reservoir is used to control the water pressure within the system. A vacuum apparatus is connected to the water conduit to remove entrapped air within the system to help maintain negative pressure within the conduit and throughout the system.
Heated Animal Water Dispenser
An animal water dispenser for use with a container for holding water includes a base, a heat source, and an upper component. The base component defines a support surface. The heat source is supported on the base component and has a heat radiating element positioned above the support surface. The upper component is removably mountable on the support surface, and defines a trough arrangement for receiving water and including an engagement feature for supporting the container on the upper component with the mouth of the container in fluid communication with the trough arrangement. The upper component is configured to radiate heat from the heat source into the interior of the container when the container is supported on the engagement feature. The upper component is configured such that at least a portion of the heat radiating element is positioned within the interior of the container.

Oriole jelly birdfeeder
An oriole jelly birdfeeder is provided that includes a jelly holding container, a base having a feeding platform and a connecting element for connecting the base to the container, and a mixing mechanism. The mixing mechanism includes a mixer element and a mixer handle which are coupled to one another and rotatable together. The mixer element includes a paddle positioned within the connecting element to enable the user to mix and distribute the jelly, which is held within the container, onto the feeding platform as needed by rotating the mixer handle.

WATER DISPENSER
A water dispenser is disclosed including a body and a water outlet mechanism, the body includes a base and a supply pipe inside of the body, multiple mounting grooves set on the side of the base; the water outlet mechanism arranged on the base, including a diversion component including a diversion pipe and a diversion valve installed in a pipeline of the diversion pipe; an end of the diversion pipe is connected to the supply pipes, the other end of the diversion pipe extending into the mounting groove; a linkage component, an inner end of that connected to the valve, an outer end of that extending into the mounting groove; when the outer end of the linkage component suffers an inward force, making the valve move to conduct the water inlet chamber and the diversion chamber; and a reduction component that connects the base and the linkage component.

Automatic Chicken Waterer
The present invention is an automatic chicken waterer within the pet feeding and watering field of inventions. The present chicken waterer is an improvement on automatic chicken waterers by enclosing the water inside a vertical reservoir, and automatically refilling the small volume with a commercially sourced combination float/fill valve that is connection directly to a pressure source. Water is automatically maintained inside the enclosed vertical reservoir by the construction of the assembly0-. Simplicity in this invention is the compact package construction, with a connection to a constant pressure source, without additional pressure regulation or flow control components. The relatively small reservoir is plumbed to feed multiple poultry nipples spaced sufficiently to allow multiple users concurrently. The semi sealed, frequently refilled reservoir provides fresh and hygienic water to users
