The present application provides a beverage dispensing system. The beverage dispensing system may include a cooler and a beverage dispenser positioned within the cooler. The beverage dispenser may include a nozzle, a flow of water, an internal carbonation system in communication with the flow of water and the nozzle, and a number of internal ingredient containers in communication with the nozzle such that the beverage dispenser produces a beverage at the nozzle within the cooler.

Agitating a plurality of fluid packages in a tower. The housing tower may include a stationary tower as well as an agitation device. The agitation device may include an agitation chassis assembly and an agitation rack tower. The plurality of fluid packages may be received at the agitation rack tower. Once received, the plurality of fluid packages may be connected to a pump assembly, wherein the pump assembly is located at the agitation chassis assembly. In addition, the agitation rack tower may be agitated relative to the agitation chassis assembly about a pivot point located on the agitation rack tower.

A system for controlling selection and distribution of a product in a product dispensing system. The system includes a user interface for prompting a selection and selecting the product, a machine control processor in communication with the user interface, a power distribution module connected to the machine control processor, and a power supply unit for supplying power to the system through the power distribution module.

The present invention is directed to a beverage dispensing system including at least one beverage dispensing container, a computing device and a base unit upon or within which, in use, the at least one container is positioned. The at least one container includes a reservoir of beverage, a communication element for storing data indicative of contents of the beverage dispensing container, a manually actuatable dispensing valve selectively controlling flow of beverage from the reservoir to a container outlet, and pressurizing means for pressurizing beverage against the dispensing valve such that when the dispensing valve is opened beverage flows from the reservoir and out the container outlet. The base unit includes at least one base-container transceiver for wirelessly reading data from and writing data to the communication element, at least one base-device transceiver for wirelessly communicating with the computing device, and a control unit controlling communication of data from the computing device to the communication element and vice-versa.

Water dispensing apparatus comprises modular components including but not limited to an easily accessible water heating module and a water cooling module. The water dispensing apparatus further comprises a bracket for holding at least one of a valve and an expansion tank onto a hot water tank for easy removal of the same in case of repair or replacement. Moreover, the expansion tank comprises a check valve that opens to allow heated water to flow thereinto and closes after heated water has drained therefrom.

The present invention relates to a water purifier. In detail, the water purifier includes: a water purifier body including a housing forming an external shape and filters disposed in the housing to filter original water flowing inside from the outside; a dispenser module at least partially protruding forward from the water purifier body and having a dispenser nozzle supplying water passing through the filters to the outside of the water purifier body; and a tray disposed under the dispenser nozzle. The dispenser module is turned to both sides and is moved up/down.

A system for controlling selection and distribution of a product in a product dispensing system. The system includes a user interface for prompting a selection and selecting the product, a machine control processor in communication with the user interface, a power distribution module connected to the machine control processor, and a power supply unit for supplying power to the system through the power distribution module.

A flow sensor includes a fluid chamber configured to receive a fluid. A diaphragm assembly is configured to be displaced whenever the fluid within the fluid chamber is displaced. A transducer assembly is configured to monitor the displacement of the diaphragm assembly and generate a signal based, at least in part, upon the quantity of fluid displaced within the fluid chamber.

A cooling unit has (a) a cooling cartridge having (i) two foils sealed to one another along a perimeter area delimiting an inner area of the cartridge where a liquid pathway is defined between both foils, the liquid pathway making a fluid communication between an inlet and an outlet of the cooling cartridge; (ii) a web or mesh of material provided between both foils in the inner area of the cooling cartridge in the liquid pathway, the web or mesh of material has contact zones where the foils contact the web or mesh of material in the inner area of the cooling cartridge when the pressure reigning in the inner area equals ambient pressure; (b) a first cooling plate has a first surface and a second cooling plate has a second surface facing the first surface; (c) a cold source suitable for cooling said first and second surfaces, wherein the inner area of the cooling cartridge is positioned between both cooling surfaces; wherein the foils are not or only at distinct locations attached to the contact zones of the web or mesh material.

A pressurized liquid delivery assembly has at least one liquid delivery module. Each module may include a housing and an associated compartment. The compartment may be located within the housing and may be moveable with respect to the housing to permit access to the compartment by a user. The compartment may define a space adapted to receive a replaceable pressurised receptacle containing liquid to be dispensed by the assembly. A liquid dispenser may be operatively associated with the receptacle and adapted to dispense liquid. The dispenser may include a conduit that may be extendable from a dispensing nozzle to a liquid receiving connector. The liquid receiving connector may be adapted to releasably connect to the liquid receptacle in use.
