ABSTRACT:
A springless nipple waterer valve includes a valve body in which a valve member is positioned with a valve head in bearing engagement with the apex portion of an abutment member at one end of the valve body. A valve seat is located in the valve body and the valve member has a valve head. A resilient sealing member is positioned between the valve head and the valve seat so that the bearing engagement of the abutment member with the valve member normally prevents fluid flow through the valve. However, the valve member is actuable by an animal pressing thereon to pivot the valve head about the apex portion of the abutment member, thereby permitting fluid flow through the valve. To vary the amount of flow through the valve, the valve member is adjustable to provide high or low rates of flow.
