Abstract:
The present invention provides a system for use in dispensing a liquid comprising a container, for example a box (1), for housing a flexible bag (5), the flexible bag having a bag wall with an interior surface for storing the liquid. A spout (6) disposed through the bag wall for dispensing liquid from the bag. The container comprises a tear-off portion (4) positioned near the base of the container to provide an opening (7) to allow the spout project from the container, and allow the bag to be substantially pulled out of the container, so that the spout projects substantially under the base level of said container in use. In a further embodiment there is provided a refrigerated housing for the inventive container for dispensing a liquid.
Abstract:
A beverage container that resembles the well-known gasoline can shape includes a spout, an integrally formed top handle, and a rear handle assembly that includes an interior handle space dimensioned to store 3-6 shot glasses in a vertically nested stack. An access door in a side wall enables use of replaceable sealed cartridge that contains the liquid being transported and served, the spout including a punch to tap the cartridge. A condiments tray is slidably disposed in a drawer space below the cartridge for separately storing mixological condiments, and includes a push button activated latch that keeps the tray closed and secure in the drawer space.
Abstract:
A liquid dispensing apparatus with a child-safety feature which, in one preferred embodiment, does not permit dispensing unless both a dispensing handle and an associated lever are each independently moved. In another embodiment, dispensing is prevented unless a manually-depressable, rotatable dispensing lever and a rotatable safety lock are both simultaneously actuated.
Abstract:
A water dispenser is provided which allows air in a warm water tank to be discharged through a tank connecting line when introducing drinking water into the empty warm water tank. The water dispenser includes a check valve (20) provided in the tank connecting line (7), through which a cold water tank (2) is connected to the warm water tank (3). The check valve (20) includes a valve body (22) having a specific gravity smaller than that of drinking water, and is configured such that while there is no drinking water in the valve sleeve (21), the valve body (22) is moved downward by gravity such that the valve hole (25) opens, and such that while the interior of the valve sleeve (21) is filled with drinking water, the valve body (22) moves upward due to buoyancy until the valve hole (25) is closed by the valve body (22).
Abstract:
A water dispenser is disclosed having a housing for a reservoir in communication with a faucet to draw water therefrom. A water bottle is positioned spout-down at the top of the housing or in the top section of the reservoir. Water flows to the faucet via gravity without the use of pumps and the like. The configuration of the reservoir and the positioning of conduits provides to place the faucet closer to the top of the water dispenser again without the use of pumps and the like. The faucet includes separate compartments as well as inlets and outlets so as to divert water towards a variety of water treatment apparatuses such as hot tanks, carbonators, chillers and the like. The faucet includes controllable valves which provide the user to choose between hot, cold, carbonated or otherwise treated water. The faucet and reservoir can form an assembly which can be removed from the housing without tools.
Abstract:
A dispenser for a liquid in a container and for mounting to differently configured places. The dispenser includes a support, a valve body, and a mount. The support supports the container in an inverted position. The valve body is operatively connected to the support and dispenses the liquid from the container while simultaneously venting air to control flow of the liquid through the dispenser. The mount is operatively connected to the support and mounts the dispenser to the differently configured places.
Abstract:
An anti-bubbling and anti-contamination water dispenser of the kind used to dispense water from disposable bottles which have a threaded cap, comprising a hexahedral housing to support said disposable bottles, having on the upper wall a container; said container is communicated with a tap to dispense water disposed perpendicular to the front wall of the housing to support said disposable bottles; wherein said front wall of the support housing of said disposable bottles has a recess that allows a gap between the tap outlet and the projection of said front wall wherein a glass for beverages aligned with the outlet center of water from the tap can fit, wherein said upper container has an identical inner diameter and threading that the cap of the disposable bottle; another embodiment of the dispenser refers to an anti-bubbling and anti-contamination water dispenser of the kind used to dispense water from water bottles, comprising a hexahedral housing to support said bottles, having on the upper wall hollow truncated cone that raises from said upper wall of the housing, wherein the slope of the hollow truncated cone decreases to the upper section comprising the upper minor base of the hollow truncated cone; said hollow truncated cone is joined to the housing by means of its bottom major base that is communicated with a tap to dispense water disposed perpendicular to the front wall of the housing to support said bottles; wherein said front wall of the housing to support said bottles has a recess that allows a gap between the tap outlet and the projection of said front wall wherein a glass for beverages aligned with the outlet center of water from the tap can fit, characterized in that said hollow truncated cone has in its upper minor base an outer diameter smaller than the inner diameter of the opening of the bottles.
Abstract:
This invention aims at providing a beverage dispenser with a simple configuration that prevents invasion of bacteria into a tank or a raw water container.An air intake 13 is provided on the top of a cold tank 4 so that air is taken in as water level in the tank is lowered, and an air chamber 14 having an air inlet 16 for the outside air is connected to the air intake 13. In the air chamber 14, an ozone generator 15 generating ozone from oxygen in the air from the air inlet 16 is provided so that bacteria included in the air from outside is killed in the air chamber 14 connected to the air intake 13 by excellent bactericidal effect of ozone. Invasion of bacteria into the tank or the raw water container is thus prevented with this simple configuration.

Abstract:
An alcoholic beverage dispenser for receiving individual containers and dispensing alcohol from one or more of the received containers comprising a base having multiple compartments therein each for receiving the individual containers therein. A valve having a valve stem extending therefrom is coupled around the opening of each individual container and each container is in turn connected with a dispensing system within the base. The dispensing system receives liquid from each individual container and dispenses the received liquid through a receiving outlet such as a tap, drink dispenser, or an individual glass.
