ABSTRACT:
A water collection indicator device includes a cuplike collector telescopingly receiving a signal member, a spring biasing the signal member away from the collector, and an actuator having an arm engaging the signal to prevent movement of the signal member away from the collector and a float movable with rising water collected in the collector, the actuator being pivotally supported in the collector such that movement of the float pivots the arm to disengage the signal member and permit the spring to move the signal member away from the collector to produce a visual signal indicating the collection of a predetermined amount of water. The actuator arm has a series of vertically spaced teeth extending therefrom for engaging the signal member, and a pivot pin is carried by the actuator and adapted to be received in a plurality of vertically spaced detents in a support mounted in the collector to permit the water collection indicator device to be triggered at various predetermined water levels.
