ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a drinking fountain device for substantially horizontal mounting, especially for mounting in a countertop adjacent to a sink. It is also directed to the combination of a sink and the mentioned drinking fountain device. In particular, the drinking fountain device is mounted substantially flush to the surface so that its working parts are mostly below the horizontal surface of mounting. This eliminates the possibility of the drinking fountain becoming an obstruction. The fountain itself operates by a push button mechanism. Optionally, a faceplate may be fitted onto one embodiment of the fountain device of the present invention so as to channel runoff into a sink. Alternatively, the bracket of the drinking fountain device of the present invention may be fashioned so as to have a top surface built-in faceplate.
