Fluid refilling and dispensing system

Abstract

A fluid dispensing system is provided for receiving fluid from a container positioned near the ground and for transporting the water up to a reservoir suitable for dispensing. The system has a cabinet having first and second chambers. A slidable support base is mounted in the first chamber to support a container for storing fluid. A reservoir is mounted in the second chamber, the reservoir further having a spigot to dispense the fluid upon request. A sensor detects a predetermined fluid level in the reservoir, and a temperature adjuster maintains the fluid at a predetermined temperature range. The system also has a pump for transporting fluid from the container to the reservoir and a circuit connected to the pump and to the sensor for activating the pump when fluid in the reservoir falls below the predetermined fluid level.
