Abstract
This invention provides an easy to carry unit that contains a water filtration and a water carbonation chamber. The water after filtration more easily absorbs CO.sub.2 and allows for a more readily provided source of filtered carbonated water. The unit utilizes off-the-shelf carbonation cartridges and has a simple hose attachment to a conventional home faucet.
Claims14
A portable water carbonation-filtration unit with components that comprise connection means for easy connection and disconnection to a water faucet outlet, water inlet means, at least one filtration chamber, at least one carbonation chamber, and at least one unit water outlet means, said water inlet means being located in said filtration chamber, means for water to flow only from said filtration chamber to said carbonation chamber and at least one unit water outlet means located in said unit subsequent to a water flow path through said unit, said unit having means located between said filtration chamber and said carbonation chamber to permit only a one-way water flow through said unit, said one-way water flow always being away from said filtration chamber and toward said carbonation chamber, said carbonation chamber containing an air venting valve and a CO.sub.2 cartridge housing for holding a CO.sub.2 cartridge in place.
A portable water carbonation-filtration unit whereby all components are located within a single portable housing or attached thereto, said unit comprising means for connection or disconnection to an outlet of a water faucet, water inlet means, water outlet means, one filtration chamber and one carbonation chamber, and an air venting valve said water inlet means being located in said filtration chamber which defines thereby the beginning of a water flow path through said unit, means for water to flow thereafter from said filtration chamber to said carbonation chamber, and at least one unit water outlet means located in said unit after said carbonation chamber which defines thereby the termination of a water flow path through said unit, said unit containing means which permits only a water flow path away from said filtration chamber and toward said carbonation chamber, said carbonation chamber containing a CO.sub.2 cartridge holder or housing for supporting a CO.sub.2 cartridge.
