Liquid dispenser for animals
A liquid dispenser may include a water tank having a wall opened at an upper side, a pump provided inside the water tank, a water supply pipe connected to the pump to transfer water, a water supply plate provided at a position higher than the wall of the water tank and having a water supply hole communicating with the water supply pipe and an upper surface over which water supplied from the water supply hole flows, and a water guide formed within the opening of the wall of the water tank and spaced apart from and below the water supply plate. The water guide may have a hole to discharge the water dropped from the water supply plate to the water tank and to filter the water.
BEVERAGE DISPENSER WITH DISPENSING BUTTON ACTUATABLE BY PIVOTABLE VESSEL-SHELF
The present disclosure concerns a user-operable beverage dispenser 100 having a beverage dispensing mechanism that enables dispensing of beverage by a hands-free or hands-contactless operation. A vessel-supporting shelf 110 is pivotably articulated to the housing 102 and is displaceable about a pivot axis 112 between an open state in which the shelf 110 is parallel to a base of the housing 102 and configured to support a removable vessel thereon below a dispensing outlet 118, and a closed state in which the shelf 110 is substantially parallel to a sidewall portion of the housing 102, a beverage dispensing actuation element 120 located on a sidewall portion of the housing 102; and when in the closed state of the shelf 110, a section of the shelf is aligned and in contact with said beverage dispensing actuation element 120, such that application of pressure by the vessel onto said section of the shelf 110 when in the closed state causes actuation of the beverage dispensing element 120, and when in the open state of the shelf 110, the beverage dispensing actuation element 120 is user-accessible by the vessel directly.

Flavored beverage carbonation system
A beverage dispensing device and methods for dispensing beverages are provided. In one embodiment, the beverage dispensing device includes a housing, a carbonation assembly, a carriage assembly, and one or more flavorant containers. The beverage dispensing device can also include a controller with a UI to allow a user to customize aspects of a beverage. These customizable aspects can include fluid volume, carbonation level, flavorant type, and/or flavorant amount. Based on the customized aspects of the beverage, the beverage dispensing device can dispense an amount of carbonated or uncarbonated water, and can dispense a type and amount of flavorant. Illustrative embodiments of flavorant containers are also provided.
AUTOMATED FLUSHING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR BEVERAGE DISPENSING
Kegs of beer may be connected in parallel alongside one or more valves that connect to a flushing fluid supply. When a beer is selected, the associated beer valve opens so that beer can be dispensed. After a pour is completed, the system automatically flushes the beverage tubing line clean by opening a flushing fluid valve, allowing flushing fluid to cleanse the line. This flushing of the line enables the system to dispense a beer from a recently flushed line for each pour, and/or dispense many different beers because leftovers of a beer from an earlier pour do not contaminate the line for later pours. The system is also configured to measure the time poured based on information from a sensor in a dispenser (e.g., a tap handle). The time poured and a measured flow rate are used to calculate the total price to charge a customer for the beer.
Beverage dispensing assembly and beverage container
Beverage dispensing assembly, comprising a dispenser and a beverage container, wherein the beverage container has a neck portion and a shoulder portion adjacent the neck portion, wherein the neck portion is provided with at least an outflow opening and at least one gas inlet opening and wherein the dispenser comprises a housing, wherein the housing is provided with a receptacle for receiving at least part of the container, wherein the container is positioned in the dispenser with the neck and shoulder portion facing downward, such that the neck portion and at least part of the shoulder portion are received in the receptacle, wherein part of the shoulder portion extends close to and/or is in contact with a wall of the receptacle, wherein preferably a lid is provided over the container, enclosing a part of the container extending outside the receptacle.
