A multiple beverage dispensing system is housed within an ice chest having a plurality of interior sections and a lid. Within a central section is an ice screw which is configured to pull ice stored within the central section out of the device through an exterior door. The other two (2) exterior sections house a plurality of cylindrical fluid dispensing containers. Each container is plumbed to be in communication with an individual exterior tap. Each tap is disposed adjacent the exterior ice door.

A liquid and semi-liquid product dispenser that achieves high product extraction rates by using a product bottle that slopes downwards towards the feed valve when the bottle is placed for dispensing. This includes a long sloped portion that extends downwards from the rear of the bottle to the front of the bottle, and a curved and sloped portion proximate to the valve. These slopes feed product to the valve under the force of gravity when it is opened, and are able to achieve high extraction rates without active pumping systems or mechanical press systems. Installation of product bottles is simplified by an interior design of the dispenser case that mirrors the bottles contours and ensures that the bottle is positioned for use when placed. Installation is also simplified in that connection of pumps or placement of press systems is not required.

A water bottle lifting and rotating device includes a base supporting a pair of rolling wheels and forwardly extending supports. The base further supports a vertically extending mast upon which a bottle clasp is lifted and lowered by a cable arrangement. A drive motor also supported on the base is operative in combination with the pulley and cable arrangement to raise and lower the bottle clasp and thereby raise and lower a captive water bottle. The bottle clasp supporting a water bottle is automatically rotated to an inverted position by a gear and gear rack arrangement operative between the mast and the bottle clasp.

System for dispensing a liquid to a user, comprising: a container, a liquid, a dispenser, arranged to receive and hold the container in a dispensing position, and comprising a control unit user, a valve connected to the container, and connected to the control unit to selectively release or stop a flow of the liquid out of the container, characterized in that: upon releasing at least a part of the liquid, the container is deformable, the valve releasing a flow of the liquid out of the container, and upon releasing at least another part of the liquid, the valve releases a flow of liquid out of the container, and allows a flow of gas into the container.

A system includes a carousel apparatus including: first openings concentrically arranged around axis to hold first containers adapted to hold first food ingredients, second openings concentrically arranged inside the first openings to hold second containers adapted to hold second food ingredients, a holder in which the first openings and the second openings are formed, and which is adapted to support the first containers and the second containers, and a first motor coupled to the holder and adapted to rotate the holder around the axis; support structure configured to hold a receptacle; and a linear actuator apparatus configured to move the support structure and including: a linear guide which extends underneath the holder and is coupled to the support structure, and a second motor coupled to the linear guide and adapted to move the support structure along the linear guide underneath the first openings and the second openings.

Mounting a device to a surface is achieved using a mount coupled to the surface and including a swing arm hinged so that the swing arm is movable between an open position permitting insertion or removal of the device, and a capture position in which the swing arm holds the device. Ideally, hinges include a retainer such as a torque insert are a part of the mount.

A delivering device (12) of liquids contained in water crocks is described, equipped with a system or kit (1) for replacing the water crocks with vessels of the Bag-In-Box BIB (14) type for their delivery, such system or kit (1) being adapted to perform the placement and connection of the BIB vessels (14) on the delivering device (12), and comprising: a main body (4, 17, 18); a plate (3, 16) adapted to place thereon at least one BIB vessel (14); a connector (10) and adapted to be connected with a delivering tap of a BIB vessel (14); a plug (8) adapted to be connected to a PIN (13) of the delivering device (12); a connecting tube (4.1, 17.1, 18.1) placed in the main body (4, 17, 18) and connected to the flexible hose (9) for communicating the BIB vessel (14) with the delivering device (12); and a check valve assembly (6, 7) for preventing liquid from reentering into the main body (4, 17, 18).

A liquid dispensing system is disclosed. The liquid system includes a housing, a vessel fluidly connected to the housing and containing a liquid, a preservation subsystem positioned within the housing and in fluid communication with the vessel and a liquid outlet operably connected to the housing and in fluid communication with the vessel. In operation, the preservation subsystem reduces oxidization of the fluid within the vessel, while allowing the fluid to be dispensed through the liquid outlet.

A milk jug includes a pitcher body, a handle, a blade retainer, and an expiration tag retainer. The milk jug is useful for containing and dispensing milk packaged in bags while retaining necessary accessories on the pitcher. The milk jug improves the utility and convenience of using milk bags by preventing the loss of the blade and expiration tag commonly used with milk bags.

An Apparatus for drawing beverages, such as beer, includes a casing in which there is housed a compression refrigeration unit and has a receptacle located superiorly and adapted to contain the barrel of the beverage. The receptacle is refrigerated by the refrigeration unit. The casing is provided with a compartment, located frontally and also refrigerated by a refrigeration unit, configured to contain drinking glasses accessible through an openable front door of the casing.
