Improvements in Apparatus for Cooling Aerated Water and other
Liquids.
I, ROBERT GARRARD, of Piccadilly Place, 32* Piccadilly, in the County of
Middlesex, Wine Merchant, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
This invention has for its object improvements in apparatus for cooling aerated
water and other liquids.
This apparatus is intended especially for cooling aerated liquids contained in siphons.
It consists of a cylindrical vessel of metal clothed with felt and provided with a cover
and the cover is hinged to it. Within this an inner cylindrical vessel is fixed
eccentrically. The space between the inner and the outer vessel is intended to be
packed with ice. The cover has an aperture in it, thus it does not close the inner
vessel and without raising the cover the siphon can be put in. The lower part of the
siphon fits the inner vessel loosely. As the height of the apparatus is less than
that of the siphon the upper part of the latter projects out through the cover.
Nevertheless when the siphon stands in the apparatus its contents
by the ice.
are cooled
The contents of the siphon can be drawn off whilst the siphon is standing in its
place. A clip is provided on the exterior vessel which serves to hold the glass to
receive the liquid.
The apparatus may also be used with bottles of the ordinary 'sort containing wine
or other liquid, the inner vessel being made of a size to suit the bottle.

Improvements in Apparatus for Cooling Aerated Water and other
Liquids.
I, ROBERT GARRARD, of Piccadilly Place 32" Piccadilly, in the County of
Middlesex, Wine Merchant, do hereby declare the nature of this Invention, and in
what manner the same is to be performed to be particularly described and ascertained
in and by the following statement :-
This Invention has for its object improvements in apparatus for cooling aerated
water and other liquids.
This apparatus is intended especially for cooling aerated liquids contained in siphons.
It consists of a cylindrical vessel of metal clothed with felt and provided with a cover
and the cover is hinged to it. Within this an inner cylindrical vessel is fixed
eccentrically. The space between the inner and the outer vessel is intended to be
packed with ice. The cover has an aperture in it, thus it does not close the inner
vessel, and without raising the cover the siphon can be put in. The lower part of
the siphon fits the inner vessel loosely. As the height of the apparatus is less than
that of the siphon the upper part of the latter projects out through the cover.
Nevertheless when the siphon stands in the apparatus its contents are cooled
by the ico.
The contents of the siphon can be drawn off whilst the siphon is standing in its
place. A clip is provided on the exterior vessel which serves to hold the glass to
receive the liquid.
The apparatus may also be used with bottles of the ordinary sort containing wine
or other liquid, the inner vessel being made of a size to suit the bottle.
In order that my said Invention may be fully understood and readily carried into
effect I will proceed to describe the drawings hereunto annexed.

page_text: DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS.
Figure 1 is a perspective view of an apparatus made in accordance with my
Invention.
Figure 2 is a vertical section.
Figure 3 is a horizontal section and
Figure 4 shows separately the shoe or lower part in connection with which a glass
holder is represented.

to the exterior of the lid. The felt is held in position by flanges as shown.
inner cylinder in which an aerated water siphon may stand. is an opening through
the lid to allow the upper part of the siphon vessel to project out. is the space to
be filled with ice. is the glass holder, it receives a suitable glass and holds it by
the foot, in a suitable position to receive the water drawn from the siphon.
Thus it will be seen that the lower part of the siphon vessel is kept surrounded by
ice and as it is from this part that the liquid is drawn the liquid will be as effectually
cooled as if the ice extended over the entire vessel; an arrangement which would
present many inconveniences whereas my apparatus is light and portable and very
suitable for general use.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said Inven-
Lion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what I
claim is :-
-:
An apparatus substantially as described for cooling the lower part of siphons and
like vessels containing aerated water or other liquid.
