A spill basin may surround the drink basin, and may be configured so that tilting or inverting the liquid dispenser drains a liquid from the spill basin and drink basin back into the tank.

A household cooling appliance has a dispenser unit for dispensing a free flow refrigerated good. The dispenser unit has an insert, which by side walls and a bottom wall bounds a niche, in which a receptacle for receiving the free flow refrigerated good is insertable. A drip tray is provided, which is separate from the insert, for collecting liquid and can be brought into the niche. The drip tray has a drip well and a grip element which extends within the drip well and is accessible from the top for gripping. The drip tray on a bottom wall has a liquid distribution element, which elevated from the top side protrudes upwards and is configured to be narrowing. The drip tray on the bottom wall has a coupling element which for positioning of the drip tray is formed in the insert for coupling with a counter coupling element.

A distributor is attached above a base. The distributor includes a plurality of sloped polygon shapes, wherein each polygon shape includes an outlet hole; The tray is aligned between the base and distributor. A liquid is poured onto the distributor and is evenly divided among the serving cups.

An apparatus for filling containers and related technologies are disclosed. The apparatus has at least one container-transportation belt, wherein the container-transportation belt is configured to carry at least one container between a first location and a second location, wherein the at least one container-transportation belt has a width which is smaller than a diameter of the at least one container. The apparatus may also include at least one belt. At least one container is carried on the at least one belt between a first location and a second location, wherein a bottom of the at least one container contacts a top surface of the at least one belt. At least one lifting mechanism raises the at least one container off the at least one belt by contacting the bottom of the at least one container.

An exemplary fluid containment system may include a fluid receptacle comprising a receptacle cavity and a receptacle opening. Typically, the fluid receptacle is structured for receiving fluid via the receptacle opening. The fluid containment system further comprises a fluid control component structured to be operatively coupled to the fluid receptacle for controlling fluid flow into the fluid receptacle through the receptacle opening. The fluid receptacle may further comprise a base projection extending from an end of the fluid receptacle structured for positioning and stabilizing the fluid receptacle within a drain recess. The fluid containment system further comprises a fluid container structured for receiving fluid and structured to be positioned within the receptacle cavity of the fluid receptacle.
