Abstract
The invention pertains to a combination of elements which allow a drinking fountain to be freely moveable within a range of positions. Mobility is achieved by supporting a fountain in cantilever fashion at the end of an arm which is mountable to a supporting structure in a manner which allows the arm to pivot relative to the supporting structure. A drinking fountain in accordance with the invention provides the advantage of being moveable, within its range of motion, to a position which provides optimal access and comfort to a user.
