Watering fountain

1. A watering fountain, comprising:

a) a first valve assembly coupled to a pressurized water supply, including a check valve configured to restrict water flow under pressurized water conditions;

b) a second valve assembly selectably coupleable to the first valve assembly and including:

b1) a disabling structure shaped and positioned such that when the second valve assembly is coupled to the first valve assembly, the disabling structure disables the check valve of the first valve assembly, thereby permitting fluid to flow therethrough, under pressurized water conditions;

b2) a diaphragm valve configured to bilaterally restrict fluid flow in a first mode, and permit fluid flow in a second mode; and

b3) a drain port disposed above the diaphragm valve and configured to permit fluid to drain therefrom;

c) a fluid conduit extending upwardly from the second valve assembly;

d) an activator rod extending upwardly from the second valve assembly inside the fluid conduit and operationally coupled to the diaphragm valve;

e) a basin extending upwardly from the fluid conduit and in fluid communication therewith; and

f) an activator plate operationally coupled to the activator rod and disposed within the basin.

2. The fountain of claim 1 , wherein displacement of the activator plate releases fluid to the basin.

3. The fountain of claim 1 , wherein the second valve further comprises a flexible diaphragm disposed within the diaphragm valve and configured to restrict or release fluid there through.

4. The fountain of claim 3 , wherein the second valve further comprises a diaphragm actuator disposed within the second valve and configured to actuate the flexible diaphragm to restrict and release fluid there through.

5. The fountain of claim 1 , wherein the activator plate is substantially circular.

6. The fountain of claim 1 , wherein the second valve further comprises a quick connect valve coupled to the fluid conduit and configured to quickly disconnect therefrom.

7. The fountain of claim 1 , wherein the activator plate is disposed within the basin and configured to rest perpendicularly to a side wall of the basin.

8. A watering fountain, comprising:

a) a first valve assembly coupled to a pressurized water supply, including a check valve configured to restrict water flow under pressurized water conditions;

b) a second valve assembly selectably coupleable to the first valve assembly and including:

b1) a disabling structure shaped and positioned such that when the second valve assembly is coupled to the first valve assembly, the disabling structure disables the check valve of the first valve assembly, thereby permitting fluid to flow therethrough, under pressurized water conditions;

b2) a valve configured to bilaterally restrict fluid flow in a first mode, and permit fluid flow in a second mode; and

b3) a drain port disposed above the diaphragm valve and configured to permit fluid to drain therefrom;

c) a fluid conduit extending upwardly from the second valve assembly;

d) an activator rod extending upwardly from the second valve assembly inside the fluid conduit and operationally coupled to the valve;

e) a basin extending upwardly from the fluid conduit and in fluid communication therewith; and

f) an activator plate operationally coupled to the activator rod and disposed within the basin.

9. The fountain of claim 8 , wherein displacement of the activator plate releases fluid to the basin.

10. The fountain of claim 9 , wherein the second valve further comprises a flexible diaphragm disposed within the valve and configured to restrict or release fluid there through.

11. The fountain of claim 10 , wherein the second valve further comprises a diaphragm actuator disposed within the second valve and configured to actuate the flexible diaphragm to restrict and release fluid there through.

12. The fountain of claim 11 , wherein the activator plate is substantially circular.

13. The fountain of claim 12 , wherein the second valve further comprises a quick connect valve coupled to the fluid conduit and configured to quickly disconnect the fluid conduit therefrom.

14. The fountain of claim 13 , wherein the activator plate is disposed within the basin and configured to rest perpendicularly to a side wall of the basin.

15. A watering fountain, comprising:

b5) a diaphragm actuator disposed within the second valve and configured to actuate the flexible diaphragm to restrict and release fluid there through; and

b6) a quick connect valve coupled to the fluid conduit and configured to quickly disconnect the fluid conduit therefrom;

c) a fluid conduit extending upwardly from the second valve assembly;

d) an activator rod extending upwardly from the second valve assembly inside the fluid conduit and operationally coupled to the valve;

e) a basin extending upwardly from the fluid conduit and in fluid communication therewith; and
